TWO NEW PLANTS
 ARE OPERATING

Operations In two plants which have been constructed here during the past few months, valued at $2oo, 900. were begun during the past week. The plants are the Birmingham Rail and Locomotive works and the Planters and Farmers oil com pany. The plants are located within the corporate limits of Birmingham and were promoted and carried to completion by two Birmingham men.
 The two plants employ in the neighbor- hood of 100 men each. all of whom have been given employment during the past week.
 The plant of the Birmingham Rail com pany at North Birmingham is greatly improved over former one owned by the same company on Fifteenth street. south The machinery and electrical equipment are among the best. At the oil mill the equipment is probably the most modern of all others In the south.
 The two plants are operating on full time and their output of saleable ma-, terials and produce receives a ready mar ket in Birmingham.

BACTERIA IN ICE CREAM
DUE TO GEALTIN, SAYS GOV.
EMINENT EXPERT.
DR.. G. w. Stiles, Jr., Considers This
Substance Deleterious and
Food Adulterant.

II found 5,OOO,OOO bacteria in cubic
centimeter of the defendants ice cream
when it was subjected to bacteriolog-
ical test III the bureau of chemistry. The
sample was carried from the place where
ii vas sold to the bureau in a sterilized
jar in the same condition in which We
obtained it,
II consider that it was deleterious as
food from the large number of bacteria
discovered. \ cubic centimeter is equiva-
lent 10 a quarter of a teaspoon, as a
measure of liquids.
This statement was made by DIR. George
W. Stiles, jr., bacteriologist of the De-
partment OF Agriculture, when called to
the witness stand today in the trial of
Joseph J. Bischof, charged with viola
ton of the pure food and drug act in the
sale and manufacture of ice cream. He
admitted, however on cross-examina-
ton, that a large number of the bacteria
found were of a harmless nature. The
trial began Yesterday morning before

branch OF the Police Court.
Gelatin Denounce das Deleterious.
to gelatin a food, describing 1t as Il
u
animals which are necessarily full of
archaeological organisms. He told the
court gelatin. from the meteorological
standpoint. was deleterious and strictly
a food adulterant..
The large number of bacteria found
in the specimen of the defendants ice
cream, the witness seemed to think
was due to the use of gelatin in its
manufacture.
There is hardly any difference. chem
ically, between a high grade of glue
and low grade of gelatin" the wit
| ness said. There is, of course, diff
feronce between highs grade gelatin
and low-grade glue. though the compo-
sition may be said to be practically the
same
DIR. Stiles admitted, under cross-ex-
| animation. that Il large number of the
bacteria he found. so far as he investi-
gated, were Of harmless variety.
Il did find about 1000 OF the 5000, 0Ol
were germs from possibly diseased COW
udder. and a less number indicating the
presence of other natter he said II
did not pursue these Investigations fur
Their.
The session this morning was prolonged
through croSs-examinatiOn on technical
matters and arguments before the court
by respective counsel.
DR.. Bigelow's Testimony.
DR.. Willard d. Bigelow of the bureau
of chemistry was examined at length on
the composition of ice cream in the gen.
orally accepted sense of the word and as
| held by food experts. He declared that
any so-calied ice cream containing less
| than IA per cent of butter fat was not,
| strictly speaking, ice cream. II might be
frozen custard or frozen milk. he averred.

| is defined as containing not less than Il
per cent of butter fat. The court allowed

Handbag Full of Dope.

Pleased at this, Mrs. Davis took out
of her handbag a hypodermic needle
and in a few moments the lieutenant
had got from her, in addition to the
needle, one bottle OF morphine, two
Walls of morphine tablets. one bottle oil
smelling salts and two bottles of some
solution which is believed to be NOR

Dewey happened to notice that the
diamond brooch at the woman'S throat
had become unfastened and was about
to drop off, and he told her TO fasten

she had more diamonds besides the
