DIR. Joseph Jacobs bereavement


Birmingham friends of DR.. Joseph ia
cobs of Atlanta will be panied to learn
of the death of his good wife, which oc-
CURED yesterday at Bethlehem. n. H.
DR.. Jacobs is the head of the Jacobs
Pharmacy company and is widely known
and esteemed through the south. The
remains of Mrs. Jacobs will be bought TO
Atlanta for interment and the funeral
services will be held there probably on
Monday. The deceased leaves only one
child-a son.
DR.. Eugene Jacobs and J. j. Jacobs OF
Birmingham, brothers of DIR. Joseph ia
cobs, leave for Atlanta today.
Mrs. Joseph Jacobs was born in Frank
furt-on- the Main and one who had known
her for many years said last night Mrs.
Jacobs was a lady of culture and one of
the kindest and best. In all my circle
of acquaintance I have not known many
women her equal. She was a great suf-
ferer for years but no one ever heard her
complain. She was indeed, a beautiful
character and her death will be sincerely
lamented"
DR.. Jacobs was at his wife's bedside
when she passed away. He had with him
not only a resident physician but DR..
Arnster of Atlanta. Every thing that med
ical skill could do was done but to no
avail. Messages of sympathy to the fam
lily will be as heartfelt as numerous.

HOW ANCIENT KINGS TRAVELLED

From the Westminster gazette.
The quiet and unostentatious man
ner in which half the monarchs of
Europe, following the example of their
holiday making subjects. are travelling
about just now, recalls the upheaval
which accompanied a rulers move
ments in the olden times. When, for
instance, the Emperor Leopold in 1865
Travelled from Germany to the Tyrol
he took with him retinue of 1000
persons and 1900 horses. More than
a hundred years later the first King
of Prussia. a gentleman who loved
pomp and display. caused a thousand
horses to be held in readiness at ev
cry posting station through which he
passed on his journeyings through the
newborn kingdom, and wherever he
spent the night, there his own bed
room furniture had to be in readiness
before his arrival.
The second King of Prussia. on the
other hand. objected to any form of
display, partly on account of the ex
pense and partly because he found that
he Travelled twcie as fast when he was
only accompanied by indispensable SER
wants. Some curious old documents have
been preserved in which the official who
arranged for the Kings comfort on his
travels explains to the provincial digni
taries what they were to put on His
Majestys table and how they had bet
ter house him. las to the royal table,"
he writes; "see that you get, first of all,
some fresh water fish and shellfish. OF
which His Majesty is particularly fond.
Also some meats. Then there should
be some good old hook. but also some
brandy and light beer. If possible, His
Majesty always takes his midday meal
in a barn, a tent or garden house,
where there is plenty of air, and like
wise His Majesty prefers to sleep in
barn or garden house, because he does
not like warm rooms, nor can he walk
up steep steps without discomfort

1.-THE Shuberts intend to provide the
most up-to-date attractions that have
been booked with the $50 managers of in
dependent theatres. We will offer in
our houses any show that has merit and
that has been found to be up to the
Shubert standard. We have no axe to
grind except to furnish first-class attrac-
lions and incidentally to make a little
money The attractions of any play
writer or booking agency have a perfect
right and we will welcome. them to our
theatre. However, we will not stand to
be given just those shows that the in
terest wish us to have. The Shuberts
are fighting no one and no interest and
freely welcome any honest competition.
Our company is here to stay and Bir-
mingham theatre lovers may depend upon
It that we will give them the best that
money and talent can produce.
1.-The Shubert will open about the mid
die of next month with a high class show.
II is probable that the show will be
such winner that it will remain here
two nights and one afternoon. We pro-
pose to play here many two-night stands
and in every way try to please the peo-

which will be admired by everyone in
Birmingham that is fond of the beautiful

\ COn,radc From the "ShOw Me- State
indorscs st. Cloud

The National Tribune of Sept %
printed a picture of the handsome
eight-room bungalow Charles Goodrich
is building at st. Cloud Comrade Good
rich is from Charlottesville, Mo. In a
recent letter from that place to the St
Cloud Tribune he says:
"On Aug. l, 1909, when 1 first visited
St. Cloud, the surveyors had building
up and several families were living in
tents. ! had two shares in the first al
lotment, and came down to see my lots
on Maryland avenue and my 10 acres in
Section 26. / was so favorably I'M
pressed with the climate and location
of the colony, 1 purchased two more
shares in the second allotment and
made up my mind that this would be
my home in the near future. In Feb
ruary last ] visited st. Cloud again,
taking my wife, also my mother. who is
in her 87th year. Imdgine our surprise
when we found that st. Cloud had water
works and electric light buildings going
up. with something like 800 residences
and many others being built and a
| National bank and 72-room hotel, SO
we felt like doing little boosting our
selves so bought another lot alongside
of our two lots on Maryland avenue and
| commenced building an eight-room
bungalow, which will soon be complet-
ed, where we expect soon to make our
| home and spend our declining years
We also bought the Sam Baton place

MosketOs and Malaria.

People who visited St. Cloud this
Summer were surprised at the general
freedom from mosketos. There are
some there. but few compared to the
coast regions. This is said to be due
to the fact that the larvae thriyes more
prolitically in the marshes along the
coast than in the clear, fresh waters of
the interior lakes, springs and streams.
Whatever the reason, they are not as
plentiful at St. Cloud in Summer as on
the coast, and the coast reputation has
extended to the interior. There are no
mosketos in the Winter time, and the
few mosketos of the interior are not
the ones that give malaria to the per-
sons they bite, and that is the reason
we have no malaria. A clearly-defined
and well-known variety of the mosketo
is the sole cause of malaria and nothing

water has IA slight sulphur smell when

pears when exposed to the air for a
lshort time. 1t is as fine drinking water
| rs one can find anywhere, being both

The machinery for the water works
and electric lights was made by the
Fairbanks Morse Co, which is guar
antee of it being the best, and the ca

Ialong the principal streets, and many
of the houses and places of business
have been wired for the coming of cleo
tricity, which is now a question of
short time.
The water supply of the town for
household and industrial purposes and
also for fire protection is an assured
| fact. There is no more healthful water.
| The fine water is going to prove an at
traction for those who have the resort

can be. The plant has several outside
