forth, a farmer sixty years old, OF
Wytheville, Va, arrived at the State
Department of Health yesterday to
take the Pasteur treatment.
Mir. Bridgeforth was bitten on the
hand last week by one of his watch
dogs. an old canine. 1t appears that
he had had the dog tied in the yard
for several days, and when the canine
was released temporarily it refused to
be retied.
And then in his efforts to get the
collar back on the dogs neck 1t DIT
him.
Though it has not been definitely de-
termined whether the amman was
mad, Mr.. Bridgeforth, at the advice
of the family lfysician, decided TO
take the treatment here anyway, as a
matter Of precaution.

COPYING RECORDS FOR APPEAL.
Allen Case May go to Federal Court
n This Week.


Richmond, March 19.--Clerk Fl. Ste
wart Jones, Of the Supreme Court OF
Appeals, had a force at work until "a
very late hourslast night copying such
parts of the record in the Claude
Swanson Allen case as are needed by
the attorneys to make up the history
of the trial in connection with the ap-
peal to the Supreme Court Of the UNI
ted States on a constitutional point.
Mr.. Jones announced that he will de-
liver the transcript, which will make
about 200 pages, to Attorney u. Z.
O'Flaherty today.
A conference will be held this morn
NO between Mr.. O'Flahercy, Senator
u. o. Wcndenburg and R. H. Wills,
the latter of Roanoke, who was one OF
Wvtheville and who is due in the city
early today. 1t is supposed the pre-
paration of the petition to the FED
eral court will be discussed at this
time. With the record delivered to-
dav. the material is ready for the con-
tjemplated action and it is supposed
the attorneys will proceed to Wash
incton tomorrow, or Friday at the
latest. Chief Justice White, to whom
the appeal must be presented, has the
reputation of rendering prompt deciS-
ions. and will be heard from, it is eX-
pected, within an hour o. TWO.
Inasmuch as no further respite Will
be granted either of the condemned
men, the only chance for Claude Allen
is 10 present his appeal within ample
time to secure a stay Of execution
from the Federal court, if that til
bunal will consent to grant one.
Floyd Allen, whose execution next
week is a practical certainty, spent q
quiet day yesterday. He spends mucF
time brooding in his cell, although nc
talks good deal, sometimes with an
iimation, to his son, Claude, who is
located opposite him. The deati
watch is in the corridor between them
! The younger brother continues tt
be the more composed and cheerful OF
the two. He seems to censure no one
and utters no word Of bitterness re-
garding anybody Claude believes tho
Governor acted honestly and con-
scientiously. He has not yet begur
to write the final letter he has con-
ten,plated, and is doubtful as tc
whether or not it is best to do 50.
Friends continue to send flowers tc
The death cells, and they are kept II
water on table in the wide corridor
that divides the two rows 'of con,
demned prisoners.

.SPE|GNER CURRENT
GOESON TOMORROW
l.. E. Greer Issues Invitation
to Friends to Attend
Celebration

i. 4. Greer, inspector of the state
convict bureau, issued an invitation te
friends in Birmingham yesterday tc
attend the celebration at Speigner to-
morrow during which the current will
be turned into the machinery of the
electrified cotton mill
Governor o'Neal will push the but
ton." said Mr.. Greer. Everybody con-
nected with the state government will
one and an epoch marking one.
with convict labor we have builded
a dam across Mortar creek and a
power house. With the power we will
turn the machinery in the cotton mill
of the state and furnished current for
electric lights all over Speigner. The
saving and profit to the state will be
enormous, l predict.
In fuel alone we will save between
$500 and 5000 per month
Mr.. Greer is completing another in
spection of the state convicts employed
In north Alabama. He returned yester-
day from Florence. Today he goes to
Lucille and Belle Ellen. He declares
that conditions are excellent.
"At Banner" said he, the new ma
chinery installed on account of the
destruction wrought by the fire of last
winter will result in a greatly in
creased output of coal. At the present
time we have only 900 men at Ban
ner. This number in the near future
will be Increased to 400. Then 1t is my
prediction. the convicts will produce
between 1900 and 1000 tons of coal per
day"

BOY SCOUTS PLAN
TO OBSERVE DAY
Whistles Will Blow and
Bells Ring at Noon.
Flags Raised

The cords will be pulled down on all
bells and whistles today from Il o'clock
to 1906.
Special permission has been granted by
the city commission for the blowing OF
whistles, ringing of bells and making of
all kinds of noises with the exception
of explosives.
This was done at the request of the Boy
Scouts of America. The scouts devised
about a dozen home made, peaceful
cannons which will be used in awakening
the whole city this morning at sunrise
to the fact that it is the Fourth of
July.
In response to the salutes, flags will be
raised at various points over the entire
city, and after the ceremony the boys
will start on their way to Sweetwater well
in Shades alley, where they will be given
barbecue and a good time in gen.
eral today AS the sun rose this morning
sslutes were fired and old glory raised
at the following places; BY Scoutmaster
Longmires troop, West park; by Cooleys
troop, East park; by Johnson and Eel
lows troop, Behren's park; by Schultz $
troop at the Neighborhood house; by DR.
Ballard's troop, Red mountain; by Brent $
troop Ayondale park; by Ford's s troop,
Five Points; by McDonalds troop. Wood
lawn; by Bushfield's troop, East Lake
park; by Samyer's troop, Wylam scout
masters will be in charge of the firing.
The ceremony on Red mountain at u
O'Clock is expected by the boys to be
especially impressive, as the raising of
the flag will be followed Immediately by
an address delivered by Borden Burr.
They want sane demonstration of the
spirit of independence Day. and have
further asked that every patriotic engi-
neer, and every person that knows how
to make a noise, to join in the demonstra-
tion today at noon, beginning at II o'clock
and continuing five minutes.
The Boy Scouts believe that heretofore
the true spirit of the Fourth has been
simply to have a good time, but they
hope to see the celebration OF the inde-
pendence of their country become one of
the biggest days on the calendar.
Through their scoutmasters they have
extended an invitation to the public to
attend the address by Borden Burr and
the celebra ton which begins at II o'clock
on Red mountain in front of the home of
Mr. Sterling Wood.
