PERKINS ARRESTED
FOR THIRD TIME
Is Charged With the Killing of a
Greek at Pratt City Some
Time Ago

Henry D. Perkins. city sanitary inspec-
tor is back in the county jail as the re-
suit of the issuing of a third warrant
before Judge Abernethy. charging him
with the murder of a Greek. George Ar
gno, at Pratt City some tiino ago. Coro-
ner Brasher swore out a warrant for
Perkins on the day of the killing and
allowed $500 bond. Friends of the dead
Greek objected and he was rearrested on
another warrant sworn out before Judge
Benners. Again he was released on $1,000
bond.
Sunday afternoon Aperos Karabaures, a
friend of the dead Greek. swore out an
other warrant. and he together with other
Greeks, will endeavor to keep Perkins in
.ail. The last warrant was issued before
Fudge Abernethy.
The killing occurred in the store of
Argino at Pratt City about three weeks
ago. Perkins had gone into the store,
II is said, to warn the Greek that he must
keep his place in a sanitary condition.
A quarrel followed. during which it is al
legged that Argino advanced or the sani-
tary inspector with butcher knife aT6
that Perkins then shot him.
The case has aroused wide interest
throughout the city, as Mr.. Perkins has
many friends here, and the Greek seems
to have been prominent In an Influential
Greek society. members of which have
declared their intention to carry the case
into the highest courts.

BY a resolution offered by Commits
sioner James Weatherly, the city will
bear the expense of expert services to
plan a park system and civic center
for the city of Birmingham.
There was no direct appropriation
made by the resolution, but 1t was TO
the effect that the park commission
and committees from the Chamber of
Commerce ascertain the approximate
cost of the preliminary work and re-
port the same to the board of COM
missioners.
President Exum and Commissioner
weatherly expressed themselves in ia

ting the board. as Judge Lane was alb
sent through Illness.
Appearing before the board on be-
half of the proposition were John w.
Sibley, Victor H. Hanson and Hill Fer
guson of the Chamber of Commerce.
and Robert Jemison, Jr, and Frank w.
Smith of the park commission.
Mr.. Jemison, acting as spokesman In
the absence of John L. Kaul chairman
of the park commission, stated the idea
was to employ an expert to plan
park system for the greater city which
will include a boulevard encircling the

TRIBUTE TO
WATERS OF AKRON
Writer Cannot Say Too
Much of Their Health
Giving Properties

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
few years ago the large landed es-
tates around the town of Akron were
purchased by company of enterprising
cisizens. This company located several
artesian wells and advertised extensively,
giving many facts as to the medicinal
properties of the water. A few persons
gave attention to the advertisements.
They tested the value of the waters ana
governed themselves accordingly. Acting
upon their honest conviction of the IN
valuable worth of these ever flowing
streams, they have made large purchases
of the property, have located town lois
and built on them; and now have over
flowing wells on their own premises, the
value of which cannot be estimated by
any moneyed consideration. NO town IN
anv section of this southland presents
higher inducements to healthseekers, IN
yalids or persons who are contemplating
a change of location, and are thinking
of some sweet southern home, than
does the town of Akron.
Because here you find an exhaustless
supply of pure cold water. The curative
properties of these mineral streams may
best be tested by comparison OF the health
of the town before We established the
wells and the health of the place today.
Cutaneous diseases. asthma, nausea and
languor all have yielded to the exhilarat-
ing and health giving virtue of these
waters. Vast volumes are flowing on day
and night, and the clear liquid looks as
If nature means that IL shall flow on
forever-natures perpetual motion, which
satisfies and slakes the thirst of famish-
ing MAINLAND by its gentle murmurings in
vitcs him this way again
1t is almost a daily practice for pas
sengers going over the railroads through
draught from one of these wells so near
the depot.
The Livingston water has a name
abroad 1t is claimed, and we believe IT,
that one of the Akron wells has all the
medical value 1t has and more. AS above
said, the health of the place is a positive
proof of the above assertion. 1t was a
few years ago notorious for its yellow
chills and lingering fevers. 1t is now noted
for the health of its Inhabitants The
cause is the water which to us Is ''the
precious essence of life" coming up from
the recesses of mother earth several hun
dred feet. sometimes rising far above the.
surface in its ascent to find its level in
some distant mountain spring. lt.sprays
the gardens enlivens the plants and glad
dens the hearts of men. Come and see
to be convinced. You may go home with
the word eureka to every wayworn
friend upon the way BY these streams
the old grow young again. We who write
this are not members of any immigration
society, nor are we solicited to send this
forth to the public. But as lovers of hu-
manity il affords us pleasure to render
aid to our fellow beings.

TO PLAN "A PARK SYSTEM

smaller parks in the different parts of
the city.
He urged that immediate action be
taken as Mr.. Raul was In the east at
this time and if the matter met the APP
proval of the board Mr.. Kaul would
get in touch with prominent landscape
gardeners and park experts, thus facil-
itating the establishment of park
system.
John w. Sibley and Frank W. Smith
spoke in favor of the proposition and
urged immediate action.
Mr.. Weatherly offered a resolution to
the effect that the city would bear the ex-
pense of employing experts to formulate
plans for park system. At the sugges-
ton of Mr.. Exum. the resolution was
amended SO that the commission would
reserve the right to approve the cost Of
the undertaking. 1t is estimated that the
initial expense of planning the boulevard
and park system will be between $4,000
and $4,000.
Mr. Raul was notified by wire of the
action of the commission in consenting
to the request of the joint committee.
and 1t is understood that he will at once
begin to make arrangements in accord
anee to the resolution.
Before the committee left the room an
informal discussion was had in regard
to the proposed bond issue for tho cree
ton of q new courthouse and county jail.
1t was suggested that the park commits
sion meet with the board of revenue and
reach a conclusion If possible on the
question of the courthouse and civic
centre.

EAST BIRMINGHAM'S
CAUSE OF COMPLAINT
Has Offered to Pay for Street I'm
provement But Cannot Get
the Work Done
TO the Editor of The Age-Herald.

10 the Editor of The Age-Herald.
The statement that the fires recently
in East Birmingham among the negroes
originated from white people with de-
sire to drive the negroes out of that
section is gross misstatement and a
SANDER on both the white and colored
people.
These colored people In this section
are a peaceable, lawabiding. thrifty in
dustrious, self respecting set of negroes.
Having their churches and school
houses, they attend to their own bust
ness. Most of them own their homes.
They are very DESTROYS of city and street
improvements and are able and willing
to pay for them. There is absolutely no
reason why they should be driven out of
their section. They are not noisy and are
off to themselves.
That there exists a sentiment among
the white population against them is alb
solutely without foundation in fact Nor
is there any reason why such a sent-
ment should exist.
The publication that such a desire ex
lists among the whites to get the negroes
out. except, perhaps. some individual
may have a personal spite against an
other. is a SANDER upon a peaceable, law
abiding community. and the people resent
the implication.
What East Birmingham needs now Is
what 1t has been asking for for some
months from the city commissioners, and
what they have so obligingly and gener-
ously promised again and again to give
aus as we have petitioned them, is a fire
station first of all, and then streets so
kept up that the fire wagons can get to
the fires. Only a few days ago the fire
wagon stalled not far from the fire and
never did get there The house burned
down wit out the department being able
to do anything to save property. All on
account of the bad streets and yet a Pc
tition has been In the commissioners
hands for months, asking that this street
be graded and paved at the expense of
the property owners. 1t has not been
done nor any reason given why
Here Is Tenth avenue, the main thor
oughfare from. Birmingham to Wood
lawn, in such a miserable condition that

and they were half the night getting it
out, and 1 am told the fire wagon got
into the same hole later. East Birming-
ham has a right to more than has been
asked for and when these things are done
that we are asking, and have a right
to expect, there will be no need for such
tales being circulated and there will be
much less fire loss.

Mr.. Moore Makes Prediction

"Once upon a time" he continued In
reminiscent frame of mind, "the city
following the administration of Mayors
Lane, Fox and Van Hoose was actu-
ally in a state of bankruptcy. We were
using script. Mayor Evans, through me-
cessity, conducted an economical ad :
ministration. The aldermen got down
to real work, not to dreaming OF parks
and ZOOS and contracts and county di-
vision. As result, we paved the
streets, lighted the alleys, gave the
people police and fire protection and
laid the foundation for great future
growth. In other words, we pulled
Birmingham out of a hole--just as
someone within the next few years will
have to pull II out of the hole the pres
ent administration is rapidly digging"
Mr.. Gray and Mr.. Moore concluded
their remarks by repeating their un-
quenchable opposition to scheme
which they termed "nefarious," and
were as virile and vigorous in their
protest against the division of the
county as was the lamented Senator
Jones against the move to change the
name of Arkansas.
