S12,OOO CAMPAIGN
 7 BEGINS TOMORROW
Raul Explains Purpose and Methods Used By Associated
 Charities

The primary purpose or the "hiri"i'u campaign for next years budget of $2,- oo to be conducted by the Associated Charities for week. beginning with to- morrow. will be to interest as many per sons as possible in the work now being done and contemplated by this organiza- tion," said John L. Kaul. president Of the Associated Charities, yesterday aft ernoon.
 While we have received number of replies to the $50 letters mailed out to men of this city who have already shown an interest in the association, the volun- teer services of many more who feel per haps that they cannot give more than an hour or so to the cause, win be greatly appreciated by the finance committee This committee will join forces with the committees to be organized from the men offering to assist in this campaign, and a thorough canvass made of the business section only. The districting of the blocks Is complete and the committees will be- gin their soliciting tomorrow.
 "We are particularly anxious to have as many as possible engaged in making the Associated Charities week of subscription . success so that the tasks will not fall more heavily upon one than another. For this reason we have assigned q special committed to each office building, which will operate separately and distinctly from the committee appointed for that block.
 This plan of having funds necessary for next years work subscribed within a week, will mean the saving of hundreds of dollars that would be spent in postage and stationary for individual appeals throughout the 12 months. To obtain the money. in any other way than this meth cd would entail an amount of labor and expense that could be used to a much better advantage in other channels.
 ''It may not be possible to visit every person interested in this work but a strong effort will be made to do so. Tn many instances there are people who feel that they are not able to contribute very much, but the finance committee desires to emphasize the fact that any donation. however trihing 1t may seem, will be gratefully received by them
 '.rhe finance committe Is composed of busy business men who are going to in- vest a weeks time In the enterprise and hope that . still larger number of men will offer their aid in visiting every man In the downtown district and securing his active concern as well as contribu- tion for the relief of the poor people in our city.
 Cards will be given to every man who contributes. which are to be given by him to those who apply to him for aid, and will serve as a passport for the con- sideration of the case by the Associated Charities"

 Barons in Demand
 Birmingham has acquired Catcher Lemon of tho San Antonio club for next season and he Is considered an excellent man. George Leiuy, who managed the San Antonio club, was especially high in his praise of Lemon, and though we have purchased a Lemon do not believe we have purchased a lemon. Leidy was considerably nettled when he learned that Morris Bloch, the president of his club,. had disposed of Lemon. as Leidy had made arrange ments to sell him for 31500 to club of the American league. Lemon hit .299 in the Texas league, is said to be fast, and In possession of a good throwing arm. He is about 29 years of age, and Is experienced. Louisville was very anxious to obtain Elliott. but in case we lot him go. which is not at all certain. we arc inclined to turn him over to some club of the Southern league. Elliott, Marcan and McGilvray are all in demand and 1t will require no effort to dispose of them profitably
 in case 1t is determined to do so. Birmingham Drew We'll Judge Kavanaugh made an unoffi- cial announcement that Birmingham easily led the other clubs of the league In the matter of attendance last sea : son. that Birmingham's figures. as a matter of fact. are larger than any other In the history of the league IL is estimated that we played to no less than 16o.00o people. New Orleans was next. Then came Memphis, Nashville, Chattanooga, Montgomery, Mobile and

NOTHING NEW IN
 SHOOTING CASES
Believed no New Evidence of Impor.
 tance to Be Secured in Last Sundays Affair

Both the recent big shooting cases those of North Birmingham last Sun | day and that of Lewlsburg two weeks
 ago-are at a standstiD Just now and
 nothing new is developing to add new features.
 It is the prevalent opinion among
 those interested that the double kill ing at North Birmingham last Sunday in which Barton Haggerty and George Cook were shot and Killed by Anthony Moss, is complete, insofar as major de- tails are concerned. In a nutshell the
 case is one of where man held that his wife had been insulted, started to avenge her, made a mistake and killed an innocent party, who happened to be young Haggerty, and then found out his mistake and killed the mar for whom he was looking-George Cook. The entire case, it is thought, de- veloped in the stories which have been published regarding the case. and it is further thought that there will be no additional material evidence introduced at the trial.
 However, around the case of Thomas Hagan, Robert Payne and J. T. Put nam, there centers a peculiar interest. The notorious New Georgia Desper- adoes," whose star has been in the ascendency for number of years, is thought. with the death of Constable Will Ellard, to have reached it's zenith and. is now on the wane. Only the trial of the men accused of the crime is
 awaited, in the general public's opin- ion, to complete the downfall of the awful clique.
 While 1t has been generally under stood all the while that Hagan had made a full and complete confession regarding the clique in the Lewisburg- Coalburg Arcadia district, involving parties who have never been suspect ed, 1t was denied at the sheriff's office last night that such a document had been prepared Still there Is no doubt on the part of many that Hagan will

 day as Result of an Explo- sion in His Laboratory

.Gadsden. November 21.-tspecial. )r-Ar effort is being made to revive traffic or the river between this city and Rome and between Gadsden and Lock g. Some years ago there was considerable business on the river but. through changes in the ownership of the boats plying on the. river and various other causes there is very little traffic in freight in and out of this city by boat at this time.. There has lately been another change in the owner ship of the boats and the new owners are making an effort to work up the business again. It Is said that in and out of Rome the business has always been good and that. if Gadsden will respond to the ad- vantages offered by the river for trans portation of heavy freight an improved service will soon be installed. s ...s
 The detectives In the Lutes murder case have been in conference with the coro- ner and the coroner stated that the jury Investigating, the case would soon be called together again. No information was given out as to what new evidence had been secured or just when the jury was to meet to consider it.
 Judge J. A Bilbro of the criminal division of the Gadsden city court stated this morning that If possible he would hold non-jury term of that court in December. The grand jury is to take up the work at an adjourned session on December and If possible to arrange the non-jury docket for the disposition of number of the cases pending there a session of the court will be begun at the same time.

Mystery Surrounds Robbery at Coal City-Circuit

Riverside. November z.-(Special.)- .)-Fht bloodhounds from Birmingham reached
 Coal City at D. m. over the Seaboard Air Line. and were immediately carried te tho store of W. A. Savage & Co. which was burslarixed last night by band oi robbers. After their arrival they were unable to take any track that would trai the robbers. The prssumtion from all the surrounding circumstances Is that the ones that committed the crime were ex- perts in their profession, having usec something In which to prevent the dogs from trailing them.

Mining MAN

Chris O'Connor, who resided in

A charge of grand larceny was

Of The EARLY
SETTLERS DEAD
DEATH TAKES FORMER BROKER
FOR BONANZA KINGS DUR
ING DAYS OF 81

With the death Thursday night
of Orlando II. Bogart, former conf
Dental broker in the days of 81
for the bonanza kings, Mackay,
Flood and O'Brien, another of the
early California pioneer band has
passed away. While for many years
inactive, because of i'll health and
failing eyesight, Bogart was once
prominent figure in local financial
circles, and at one time held large
interests in many important mining
claims
Bogart is survived by a widow, a
son by his first marriage, William
F. Bogart, business manager for
the Examiner, and a daughter, Mrs.
w. B. Holden He has been MAX
ing his home with the latter for
the last few years in California
street, and it was there that the
end came from an attack of cysti-
tbs, the outcome of slight stroke
of paralysis two years ago.
Bogart was not only the first re-
tail druggist of this city, but he
also opened the first gun store near
the old postoftice building in Wash
ington street. He was, besides, for
some time cashier of the Pacific
bank, and was associated in bus
mess with the firm of r. H. Mac
donald. His main interests, how
ever, lay in mining and ranching,
and like many another of the great
men of his day, he made and lost
fortunes. For the last few years
he had taken practically no interest
in business matters, although he re-
tanned his faculties until the end,
a few days before his eighty-first
birthday.
Bogart was member of most of
the loacl shooting and sporting or
CARNATIONS, and took special inter-
est in the Tule Bell club, of which
he was the founder San Fran
cisco Chronicle.

DR.. Jacobs, the secretary of the

The document is not public prop

WORDS OF PESSIMIST
SHOULD NOT BE Needed

The pessimist has been heard to
say that the road to ruin is paved
with good inrentions, but the words
of the pessimist should not be heed
ed. If he believed in the good of
the world he would not be a pes
simist; if he possessed confidence
in himself he would outgrow the
disease that makes him see only
with gloomy eyes.
The pessimist has done some good
for the world for he has made 9th
ers SO disguised that they have
turned from him and sought the
company of those who can see the
silver lining. And if the road to
ruin is paved with good resolutions,
even more emphatically can it be
said that the avenue to success is
paved, packed -knee-deep, banked
and enclosed with we'll wishers.-

TIN CAN TOURISTS ARE
TRAVELLING NEW ROUTE

southern Nevada.
The tramp who commonly made
his annual trip over the Southern
Pacific now hits the brake beams
and blind baggage through the low
er end of the state. BY this route
he foregoes the trip over the Sierra
and side-steps the cold and ice.
The result is that the towns in
southern Nevada are receiving the
characters that usually visited Reno
and other northern Nevada towns.
A peace officer who lately came
from Las Vegas stated that not
long ago 1870 tramps were counted
on one train that was headed for
Los Angeles. 1t is daily occur
renee to witness a dozen or more
tomato can tourists mounted on
brakebeams and hid under the car
frames. Vegas, Caliente, and in
fact all the stations along the route
have become tramp infected. The
authorities in that section have han
died the tramps as they did in Reno
keeping them moving further to
the south. They linger in Vegas as
they did in Reno and on they go.
Petty thefts are reported, but there
is not Jail room enough in Clarke
county to handle such plaques.
At the present time the San
Pedro is using about 1900 men in
the reconstruction of the high
route. This means a continuous
string of tramps and workmen who
get few days pay and then move
on. There is always the crooks
following the construction camp,
and it keeps the authorities hust-
ling to prevent wholesale crime
along the route,
After the construction is finished
this element will disburse of its
own accord, but the established
route for the hobo is settled. In
the future the tramp will map his
route via the San Pedro.
