Consumption From = Monkey.

A report comes from Russia that
Nine. Gvosdeska. prima donna at the
Imperial theater, is Ill from consumD.
ton, having been infected by her pet
monkey. She fondled her pet when
it suffered from bronchitis. Inasmuch
as the monkey is suffering from
tuberculosis, the Russian doctors de-
cided that the disease had been
caught from the monkey. 1t is prob
able that consumption would last con
siderably longer In the woman than
in the monkey, and the chances are
that the poor monkey while out OF
sorts really caught the consumption
from the prima donna, who may have
been infected long ago. the trouble,
though, only recently showing to any
serious extent.

NOTIFY THE POLICE
 WHEN LEAVING TOWN
They Can Thus Keep Special Watch on Houses in City Which Are
 Left Unoccupied

"A good many of the burglaries re- ported to the police said Chief of Po- lice Bodeker yesterday, have been pulled off in vacant houses, that Is, those which are closed while the resnidents are out of the city. Yet the police department could easily diminish the number If those citizens would exercise enough fore thought to notify the department of their absence, In which case the officer on t-aat beat would be ordered to keep close watch on that place.
 ''Recently a burglar entered the home of Mrs. J. H. Montgomery on South Thir- teenth avenue and stole lot of silver and clothing. This house was vacant, the owner being away on a visit, and the po- lice knew nothing of this burglary until she returned Mrs. Montgomery had not notified us that she would be away from the city, and consequently the yeggmen were able to get in their work.
 T have given the citizens of Birming- ham notice for the past five years that when leaving their homes for a short visit from the city if they would notify the de- partment we would keep a special watch over their property. It would help the department, and save the citizens some thing If they would bear this in mind.'

Attalla, September 2-cSpecial.)-The Etowah county high school opened its fourth year of most successful work as an educational institution in this city this morning.
 The. school was one of those established under Governor Comers administration and has been wonderfully successful from the very start.

CHANGE METHOD OF EXPRESS SHIPMENTS Color of Label Is Guide to
 the Consignee TAKES MORE TIME Duplicate Copy of Way Bill Showing Paid" or Collect" Will Be
 Attached to Each Pack
 age Handled

A new and uniform system of express shipping went into effect yesterday on all express lines in compliance with an order issued by the interstate commerce com mission to regulate express companies.
 The system involves four separate for malities when one desires to make ship ment. From what can be learned the matter will be rather complicated, yet there will not be any serious chance of duplicate collections for express matter such us have worried the company and shippers considerably in the past.
 According to unofficial Information, re- ceived here yesterday, shippers will find 1t much to their advantage to send pack ages to the company offices quite while before the train leaves on which the ex press matter is to be sent For at the express offlco there will be considerable billing to be done which will require time And unless time is given certain train may be missed by the packages failing to receive proper billing in time
 Under the new system four different forms are to be made out for each ship ment. one Is the usual consignee's re- ceipt which has undergone no change while the other three formalities Include a messengers way bilf, the local offices receipt and duplicate of the latter. which will be pasted to the express package. The latter will provide way in which the package may be denvered if the mes sengers way bill Is lost or delayed as the duplicate will carry all information contained in the way pril.
 The pasted receipt will carry the charges whether collect or otherwise and will also show the rate. In this way 1t will be lm- possible to overeharge or collect again once the rate has been made out on the receipt.
 Under the new arrangement tho color scheme of labels will be most effective. The golden rod will represent those pack ages on which the rate has been paid; white will be for those that are collect, while green will mean that one must dig down and pay before the package is de- livered. otherwise "C O. D."
 Local officials assert that the system is the result of long study on the part of express company officials and members of the interstate commerce commission staff of experts.

Greensboro, N. C., September 2.-The state convention of the progressive party here tomorrow. followed by the repub- day. are expected to bring the republic. an affairs in thls state to a crisis.

DO NOT WANT 10TH
 STREET NARROWED
Question Will Probably Come Up for Action by
 Commission Today

The question of lessening the width of to Fourth avenue will come up today at the weekly commission meeting. accord ing to an announcement yesterday. The chances are that the proposition will be defeated, as there is very little disposi- tion on the part of the commission to cut down that principal thoroughfare. The plan suggested by the city engineer was to widen the sidewalks from 15 to 20 feet on each side, which would lessen the feet Property owners have protested, while Commissioned Lane said yesterday he was unalterably opposed to any such scheme. ell added, as matter of rec ord that he was opposed to cutting down the width of any street in Birmingham.
 In addition to this problem the city commissioners will perhaps let the con- tract for wood block paving on First ave- nue from Eighteenth street to Twenty first street. That matter has all been settled except the award of contract Bids have been made and unless some thing occurs to delay it the contract will be let today. The taking up of the Bel gian blocks on that avenue has engaged attention for some time, and 1t will be n matter of very great satisfaction to many persons in this city when actual work is started toward the laying of smooth pavement there
 Other than the two above matters It is understood that very little action of im- portance will be taken. The usual amount of routine work has accumulated on the desk of Secretary H. s. Ryall, which will be disposed of without any waste of time.
 President pro tenn. James Weatherly will preside.

 It Is understood that service will De started on the Tidewater line one week from today. It is probable that a try out will take place during this week, al though the officials yesterday were not inclined to go into those details at this time.
 MT. Ross, who is to be in charge of the operation of the new line, Is from Mobile, where he has been for several years. He is an experienced street rail- way man and in him the officials of the company have every confidence.

 Birmingham

The campaign of the socialist party for national offices will be carried on in the streets of Birmingham Permission was yesterday given the party in this state to hold political rallies on the streets by James Weatheriy, acting president of the board of commissioners.

Warm Sleuth on q Cold Trail
By II. F. LUSsIER

One amateurish Lecocq, from 1skooda, who aspires to be a real detective some day, Saturday evening, after wandering through several palaces of mahogany and mirrors, imagined himself in New York city, for he started on a silent quest for the notorious "Gyp the Blood to earn the S600o reward, with which he intended to buy an educated dachshund to trail ramous criminals. With hat slouched over his eyes he meandered in and about the Terminal station until he came upon one whom he supposed to be the gentleman of the corpuscle cognomen.
 Grasping him whom he believed to be the noted desperate by the arm he started in the general direction of police headquarters. but had only gone a few steps when his prisoner, who thought the joke had gone far enough, started to break away. This 1skoodan disciple of Sherlock Holmes. however. was not to be trifled with in this manner and proceeded to climb unto the fellows back. By this time a large crowd had collected around
