are employed above the second story.
Section 2. This act shall take eff
feet from it's passage.
Approved November IS, 1910.
States Attorney II. B. Shaw an
nounced today that he intends to take
up the matter OF fire escapes on pub
lie buildings and enforce the law.
Mr.. Shaw says that II no steps are
taken to put in proper fire escapes

STEEL TRUST BIDS BARRED
Attorney General UphoIds Restrict
ions Upon Acceptance of Armor Plate

Attorney General UphoIds Restrict
ions Upon Acceptance of Armor Plate
Washington, March 31.--The Attor-
ney General sent to the Secretary of
the Navy yesterday his opinion in
the matter of bid for steel and armor
plate for battleships from corpora
tons that are In a combination in re-
straint of trade.
The Attorney General sustains the
amendments put into the Navy APP
preparation bill by Representative
Stanley of Kentucky, by which it will
be impossible for the Navy Depart
ment legally to buy steel for construc
ton purposes in ships or for armor
plate from any concern that is in the
Steel Trust He does not 90 into the
matter of whether or not the various
companies furnishing steel to the
Navy Department or TO contractors
for battleships are in trust, but he
advises that the Navy Department re-
quire from bidders affidayits to the
effect that they are not in any comb
nation in restraint of trade II after
ward it should appear that such affi-
davits were false in any particular
the department would have the pow
er of cancelling the contracts.
The opinion has not resolved the
perplexities of the secretary over the
situation to any great degree. There
is fear that the restrictions may re-
suit in a failure to build the new
ships.

Near Champagne Manlfestants at Bar
sur-Aube, Hoist Anarchist Emblem
Paris, March 3l.--The red flag was
displayed Wednesday at Bar-sur-
Aube, where the wine growers infur-
lated by the fact that they were not
included in the champagne district,
have been making noisy demonstra-
tons against the government. 1t flies
everywhere, on all the official build
ings, in the Office of the sub-prefect,
In the city hall and on every private
house.
The troops which had been station
Withdrawn but the sub-prefect has
demanded that battalion Of infantry
and a detachment OF cavalry be sent
to the disturbed district.
During an interview with the mem
bers of the wine growers committee
the sub-prefect objected to The dis
play of the red flag and suggested
that it be taken down. To this the
committee demurred at first, but at
last a compromise was agreed upon.
Under it the offending banner was
removed at shutdown and replaced by
the tricolor, but the latter was twined
about the staff in such way that
only the red was visible.
NJ Lefevre, a radical Socialist De-
putty, has introduced a bill in the
Chamber of Deputies suppressing all
wine delimitations, but increasing the
facilities of the authorities for pro.
ceeding against those who handle or
manufacture fraudulent wine.

YOUTHFUL MooNsHINER
Child of 13 Arrested for Operating
Illicit Still.

Lexington, Ky, March S1.-The
youngest manufacturer of moonshine
whiskey ever arrested is in Jail at
Richmond, KY, yesterday. He is
Gourley Barker of Wagersville, Ky,
aged 10 years. u. S. Marshal Will
liam Mays, who arrested him, says he
is one of the shrewdest and most eX-
pert moonshiners he ever knew. The
child operated an Illicit distillery far
back in the hills and conducted OPP
erations so quietly that his parents
had no suspicion.
His frequent nights away from
home they thought were spent with
neighbors' boys.
Mays says the Illicit still operated
by the boys is the most complete he
has seen in thirty years service, and
that the boys had conducted it ac-
lively many months.

Pape's Cold Compound is the result
of three years research at cost of
more than fifty thousand dollars, and
contains no quinine, which We have
conclusively demonstrated is not ef-

WILL EXPERIENCE TEACH?

Will the farmers of the state pro
fit by the experience of the last year?
It is a fact that there was a partial
crop failure in certain parts OF the
state. 1t is also fact that in many
instances the failure was directly due
to laxity in the methods employer by
tillers of the soil and not to climatic
conditions. This was proved by the
fact that farms in the same neighbor-
hood and in the same section of land
in fact showed a great difference in
yield, one farmer having profitable
crop while his neighbor did not even
attempt to harvest his crop. In ev-
cry instance except where hail was to
blame for the destruction of the crop
the better crop was raised on ac-
count of the fact that the owner
of the land employed what have be-
come to be known as better farming"
methods. Literature on better farm
ing" is obtainable from q number of
sources at no greater expense than
the sending for it. The Agricultural
College has plenty of it and is anxious
to send it to the people of the state.
Commissioner of Agriculture and Lab
or Gilbreath can also supply great
deal of information along those lines.
With better farming methods in use
generally over the state there is al
ready assurances of good crop as
the conditions in the spring are bound
to be ideal on account of the heavy
fall of snow over the state and II the
dry farming" process, which is simp-
ly matter of the conservation of
moisture, is carried out there will
be need of but little rainfall during
the growing season. Every one in a
position to put in good word for the
better farming plan should start
to get busy at once and with the end
in view of making it bumper crop
do all in their power to call attention
to the necessity of assisting nature ;
in providing for the wants of the hui
man race.

tant bill passed was the Cashel meas
ure, against which every effort of the
| prohibition forces of the state was di.
rected. This bill provides that drug
| glsts who do not hold drug permits
may sell liquor in cases of emergency
Under the present law druggists with

disposing of liquor in any manner. 1t
is contended that this bill lets down
the bars for abuses that would serve to
destroy the value of the drug permit
Out of the grist mill has come the
LaAloure anti-snuff bill. which, it must
be admitted, is out of the ordinary
This bill prohibits the sale of snuff
within the state, making exception only
in the SAGE of wholesalers who do an
interstate business and who ship such
stuff out of the state. The retail of
the product is entirely done away with.
The futile anti-cigarette bill, much
along the same line, was killed in the
senate. This bill would have prevented
the sale of manufactured cigarettes and
cigarette papers. 1t originated in the
house and passed the lower body by a
good majority.
Measures affecting the municipal cor
porations that have been passed this
year have also been quite important
Under the provisions CT one of these
the cities are given greater control over
public utility corporations by forcing a
maximum rate that will give cities the
right kind of rates. Such power is ex-
tended to cities governed both by the
commission and the council charter
plan.
There is also the measure regulating
the construction of poles for street car
lines.
In commission cities method has been
provided for the recall of commission
ers, that being a feature of the old law
that had proved objectionable in some
quarters.
Banking business Of the state has
also been placed on new basis, the
passage of the Mcdowell bill being
looked upon as one of the most I'M
portant pieces of legislation enacted for
number of years affecting the business
interests of the state. 1t is contended
that this measure, by the enforcement of
the new requirements it lays down in
the matter of examinations. will result

fdence upon the part of the people.
Another measure of unusual interest
is the Duis bill, providing for the man.

that if there was a desire on the part

TEXAS ATHLETES TO lE.
 BE INDEPENDENT

New York, January 19.-It Is announced at the headquarters of the Amateur Ath- letic union that the organization will probably soon have a new branch which will be known as the Texas association, its territory to comprise the entire state of Texas. That state now has Il or ganizations devoted to the interests of track and field sports.
 The matter of granting membership to the Texas association will be put to mail vote of the board of governors of the Amateur Athletic union as soon as l.. De Benedetto of New Orleans. secretary of the Southern association, gives his consent. The principal reason given by the Texans for desiring an as- sociation of their own, outside of the Southern association, is that with their own association and headquarters of their own in Texas, they can arrange for championships devoted to Texas ex- clusively and keep at their headquarters reports, records and statistics which otherwise would be kept elsewhere

MOBILE LOOKS FOR

MEN ON TEAM OF LOCAL \. VI. [. A. HAVE CONTRARY EXPECTATIONS, HOWEVER, AND CONTEST WILL BE CLOSE

Much interest is being manifested Ill the basketball game 10 be played tonight between the crack team of the Mobile Young Mems Christian association and the five of the local association. The game will be played on the floor of the Local association, and will begin at o'clock.
 The visiting team is composed of men who have all shown themselves stars, and the local boys will have to hustle. After the ignoble defeat suffered at the hands of the Bessemer Y. NJ. C.

The team to go up against the Gulf City bunch tonight will be picked from the following:
 Burmeister. Brooks, Estes. Strange, ]. Bethea, R. Bethea, Brown, Hilty. Greenwood Stoval Barrow and Hender- son
 A Mobile scribe has the following to say of the team which plays here to- night:
 "Friday night they meet the five of the Birmingham Y. NJ. c. A. in the first game of the season for the local squad. From Birmingham they go to Columbus, Ga, where they will play the Y. M. c. A. team on Saturday night and local fol- lowers of the indoor game are confident that the fast local bunch will return to Mobile with both games on. the right side of the ledger.
 "The local association has scheduled number of games for the coming season, and believe that they have one of the fastest and best teams that has ever rep kusented the association. The majority of the team are youngsters. with plenty of strength and activity and were se- lected over a number of candidates. Dur ing the season some of the best teams In the country will visit Mobile, among them Vanderbilt and Sewanee, and local asso- ciation members and basketball fans gen. orally are of the opinion that they will all .,have to hustle to win from the locals. o mn,.The team this year is under the man. ,,s;asticat of Warren R.
