BULLET WOUND
 FOUND IN NEGRO

After careful search of the body of Henry Fields, the negro who died shortly after being arrested by Officer Darnell late Monday night on q charge of stealing sugar from a Louisville and Nashville freight car, City Physician Charles Whelan discovered a bullet wound close to the right shoulder blade on the ne gro's back. Officer Darnell states that he shot twice at the negro after he had escaped from him. Fields was captured by Darnel near Second avenue and Six teenth street after a chase of several blocks. He had been detected in the act of stealing a barrel of sugar from the freight car and had broken away from the officer. Darnel caught up with him and took him to jail. where he died. A careful search was made but no bullet wound could be found at that time. Dr. Whelan stated that the wound was ex- ceptionally small, 32.20 revolver being used. Coroner Brasher will investigate the death of Fields.

BANK MEN RECEIVE
 CHRISTMAS BONUSES
First National Distributes S6l50 Among It's FOrce-Sick Ben
 eft Fund

The First National bank of Birming- ham, which inaugurated system of sal- ary bonuses three years ago, handed to it's officials and employees this week as Christmas money sums totaling s6l50.
 The schedule established calls for a bonus of 1 per cent of salary multiplied by every year of service up to 10 years. Thus three year man gets as an extra , per cent, a five year man gets per cent and a 10 year man 10 per cent.
 Four years ago the First National start ed a sick benefit fund for employees, of- fcers excluded. During the first two weeks of illness the clerk salary contin- ues in full force by the bank. During the next 10 weeks the salary is paid out of the sick benefit fund. Each clerk pays one-h half of 1 per cent of his salary-say 59 cents per month on s100 salary. The clerks elect annually from their own number three directors to manage the fund and pass on claims. The directors of the bank guarantee any deficiency. This gives clerk his salary for three months, covering surgical operations, ty- phoid fever, etc. It is said that the bank will probably take up soon the matter of a pension system.
 The directors of the First National bank at their meeting this week declared the usual per cent quarterly dividend on the capital stock of sl,500oo0- si5. .ooo-pay- able January 2

 Today

Tie directors of the Holy Innocents Hospital for the Treatment of Diseases of Children, through their secretary, Mrs. Walter Philips are making an earnest ap- peal for Christmas donations today The hospital is badly in need of funds, and any donation of money, provisions or clothing will be greatly appreciated The hospital. which has been open only a few months, has received hundreds of poor and afflicted children who have been given medical treatment without cost.
 In speaking of the needs of the hos pital yesterday, Mrs. Philips said; We are sorely in need of funds to carry or this most laudabe work and will be grate- full for all donations. whether of money, provisions or clothes. l am sure that if the people of Birmingham could see the poor, helpless children. many of them badly afflicted, whom we are caring for they would be glad to give of their abundance to this cause.
 There is nothing more appealing than afflicted childhood, and We sincerely trust that they will be remembered on this Christmas Day by those who are supplied bountifully with this worlds s gods Nothing would more meet the ap- proval of Him Whose nativity is being celebrated the world over, for He said; 1nasmuch as ye do it unto one of these, ye do it unto Me

Scratching Caused Sores. Hair Came Out in Large Quantities. UsedCuticura Soap and Ointment, Scalp Sound and We'll.

Musxogee, Okla.--"For more than year was afflicted with scalp disease. There were large white flakes or scales which caused the painful itching and my scratching would bring blood and cause sores My hair came out in large quantities and what remained was thin. dry and lifeless My temples were completely bare. During this time tried everything that thought would help me but nothing seemed to do any good. A friend advised ms to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I sent and got sample of each which tried as directed and truly say that the first application did me good. l afterwards purchased a full-sized cake of Cutlcura Soap and box of Cuticura Oint- ment. I bathed with Cuticura Soap and applied Cuticura Ointment. At the end of about four weeks my scalp was sound and well and my hair had thickened up and grown wonderfully in such short time. I am proud to say that am entirely cured of my scalp troubles and my bare temples have full growth of hair again. tSigned) Mrs. D. W. Mcclellan, Dec. 16. 1911.

BALKAN WAR IS
 CAUSE OF ACTION
Fruit Stands on Street AL lowed to Remain Un-
 til April 1

The Balkan War entered into the dis cussion as to whether the numerous fruit stands that "adorn" the sidewalks of the city should be removed or not, when the matter came before the meeting of the city commissioners yesterday and the recommendations of President Exum came up for discussion.
 IL was first suggested they be dscon- tinued by the first of the year, but MT. Exum recommended that they be allowed to remain in their present location until April l, 1913, in order that those patriotic Greeks who, in response to their coun- try's call, deserted the peanut and ba- mana for the rifle and bayonet, might have time to return to Birmingham and close up their business.
 Mir Weatherly offered a resolution that the stands be licensed until April 1, which was carried. Commissioner Lane voted against the resolution stating he was in favor of granting them q years license.
