CAR|SE CCIAI||SSE SAYS SAYS ITS
 UP ID DEMOCRATS"
Birmingham Realty Com pany Working for Prog
 ress of Birmingham

In the opinion of Henry R. Carse, vice president of the Hanover National bank of New York, and president of the Bir- mingham Realty company, the welfare of the country lis up to the democrats, and if they are put out of power four years hence 1t will be only their own fault
 Mir. Carse said yesterday that the dem ocrats had selected we'll poised man to be President and the financial interests were not afraid of the probable actions of Governor Wilson.
 "The election of Governor Wilson was generally conceded and in the east it was simply race to see who would get the most votes, Roosevelt or Taft said MT Carse The democrats have the first chance in 20 years to make good and if they fail to keep the government in their hands four years hence it will be their own fault.
 Our company-the Birmingham Realty will keep pace with the progress of Bir- mingham. We are putting all the money we make back into Birmingham improve n1ents as MT. Beatty will tell you. We are erecting a large number of stores on First avenue and doing other work. As money comes in we will spend it to assist in making Birmingham better and more progressive. Our stockholders have received very small dividends during the past few years. due to the fact that it has been our policy to place our earnings back into Birmingham improvements"

The case was appealed to the court of appeals by the defendant, Liv- ingston, after the lower court had sen fenced him to serve 10 years in the penitentiary for murder in the second degree.

SOME 5000 PERSONS SAW zOO SUNDAY Great Interest Being Shown in Animals at Avon
 dale Park

That 2500 passengers were hauled to the zoo at Avondale park Sunday were the official figures given out yesterday by the Birmingham Railway. Light and Power company. Added to that crowd was 25o0 persons who walked from Avon dale, Mountain Terrace. Woodlawn. and some in automobiles. running the second Sundays attendance at the zoo up to 5000 persons.
 The small collection of animals, the beginning of the Birmingham geological gardens, has created much interest among the people of Birmingham. The daily crowds are very large, but the two Sundays have been far above what was expected It is believed that another record breaking crowd will be there next Sunday if the weather is good
 In order to handle the crowds it was announced yesterday by the Birmingham Railway, Light & Power company that sidetrack was necessary at the park, and would be constructed to facilitate the operation of cars.
 The geological society will hold a met ing this afternoon in the city nall to which the public at large is invited. A constitution and by-laws will be adopted and other important work transacted. The financial assistance rendered the zoo has been of great encoura cement to those in charge. It is expected that a system attic campaign for funds will be inaugura- ted soon.

 The new board of revenue held an elee- tion of officers yesterday and practically reelected every member of the official family of the old board.
 They deferred taking any action on the election of road overseers of which there are about fifty applicants, as the board desires to make a personal inspection of the several road districts before mak- Ing selection. The election of the road overseers was set for December 10, as by that date the board will have had the opportunity to inspect the roads of the county.
 The election of officers was held while the board was in executive session. Many of the applicants were strongly endorsed and after due deliberation the election resulted in the election of those named The almshouse superintendent is yet to be elected. The county physician and county health officer are selected by the Jefferson County Medical society. - The board was in session until late hour yesterday evening, but nothing outside of the election of officers was done.
 All the business of the new board thus far has been done in executive ses- sion, and has related principally to the organization of the working force of the county.

SCHRANK IS INSANE,
 SAY FIVE AIuL|EN|STS
Will Be Confined in HOspi- tai for the Criminal
 Insane

Milwaukee, November 19.-That John Schrank, who slot Colonel Theodore Roosevelt on the night of october IA last, is insane will be the substance of an unanimous report of the five alienists ap- pointed by Judge A. C. Baclus to ex- anime into the prisoners mental condi- tion, was the statement of court Of ficial this afternoon.
 Judge Backus stated late today that the report probably would not be presented to the court until Thursday. and that he had no idea of what the findings would be.
 The commission held what was expected to be it's last session With Schrank today, and it was even while he was being sub jected to further questioning by the phy- sicians that the report gained circulation that the prisoner would be adjudged in sane.
 Fresuming that Schrank will be found insane, it will be impossible to try him on the charge of attempting to kill Col onel Roosevelt. The only alternative is confinement in the hospital for the crin- inal insane at Oshkosh.

 Shops

Anniston, November 19.-(Special)-- Joe Daugherty met his death here this afternoon about o'clock at the Kilby Locomotive and Machine works when 2200 volts of electricity coursed through his body.

THINKS OLD SONGS
 ARE ANTIQUATED

Chattanooga, November 19.-(Special)- J. Because he considered as anticipated an institution where such songs as old Black Joe and "Suwanee River were sung, Jack Brown farmer residing near Igcu, Tenn, refused to allow his three children to attend school. It was report ed to the county probation officers that Brown had three children who were not attending school. When the latter inves- tigated to find the cause Brown informed them that the school was singing the same old songs that he used to hear 40 years ago. and that inasmuch as he didn't learn anything he didn't believe his chil- dren could in such an environment. The probation officers thought otherwise, and the little Browns are now in school
