 Every one familiar with the mineral situation in the Birmingham district spoke of the big deal as altogether logical. The Woodward company needed a large body Of coking coal. The Birmingham Coal and Iron company had this coal within a comparatively short distance of Wood ward-only II miles by rail. The Wood wards have been able to make pig iron at lower cost than any other concern hereabouts for the simple reason that all their raw material was right at their door. so to speak. And in branching out they will still have the advantage of this matter of proximity. Moreover. in the dea, with the Birmingham Coal and Iron people the Woodwork company, 1t is understood, acquires free trackage rights over the 14 miles of the Atlanta, Brming- ham and Atlantic railroad between the Mdlga mines and Woodward.
 Although the officials of the Woodward Iron company declined to make any state fnent at this time other than that signed hy Vice President A. H. Woodward, an-

 ward of $50

Detectives Cole and Goldstein had quite bargain picked up man who is worth s5C to them.

 Stubbs is said to have been board ing the 1920 Louisville and Nashville train for Nashville, when he passed be- tween Monroe and his confederate. One of the men is alleged to have pushed him against the other one and in the melee his pocketbook. containing s6s in cash. a S250 money order and several valuable paper, was made away with
 Monroe then did a Marathon down Nor ris avenue, and was making fairly good time untif he was stopped by Police Cap tain J. $. Johnston.
 King escaped to another part of the train and was not captured until the train reached Warrior. After having been assigned to the case Detectives Cole and Goldstein telegraphed ahead of the train and had it searched at Warrior. They found the man aboard who answered the description and who proved to be the man wanted.
 He was brought back to the city last night in charge of the marshal of War rior and placed in the hands of the police.
 A telegram was received by the police from Sheriff T. s. Holland of Forsythe, Ga., asking them to intercept Henry Cal houn and Leila Watkins, negroes, who were wanted in Georgia.

How to Change .s>
 Your Face
(From Fashion Review


 The painful, dangerous and expensive operation known as "face-peeling' 's not necessary to accomplish the results sought One can gradually and safely remove the old and unbeautiful cuticle from her face without pain, danger or detention indoors. Simply use ordinary mcrcolized wax, which can be obtained at any drug store. Apply it for few nights like cold cream and wash 1t off each morning. The incredible in the wax slowly absorbs the half-dead outer skin, which flakes off day by day in tine invisible particles. The fresh young skin underneath soon blooms forth radiantly. making the face look years younger and much prettier Elm ployment of this process is not notice- able to others, except that your cofn- plexion improves rapidly.
 Of course, the removal of the surface skin in this pleasant manner, takes with it all facial blemishes, such aa chaps, freckles, moth patches, liver spots, fine wrinkles, pimples, etc. Mer colized wax has been known for years to many society women noted for their beautiful and lasting complexions.

Underwood first. last and all the time. He deprecated the primary sys- tenn, saying that of all the antiquated propositions that now infest this state the primary plan was tke most monumental.
 Judge Eyester says: 'Mr. Underwood can be nominated. The delegation should be instructed for him, and they should not be held down to second choice. They should be hands, free, enabled to trade or do anything to promote the interests of cv. favorlte son.
 "As to the primary form of electing delegates. I am opposed to any plan ex- cept the good old fashioned convention. When we had the convention we. did not make judicial mistakes, but selected men Of recognized ability for the important positions.
 However, we all cannot agree as to the plan of sending the delegates. will be pleased with any plan provided the delegation goes uninstructed except for Underwood first, last and all the time.'
