 From People

". C. Davis of Jasper, member of the committee, and the recess committee named to consider Judiciary reform. de- clared while visitor to Birmingham that he was anxious that every individual of Alabama who has an idea regarding the work which he and his associates will perform this season. give that idea pub licity
 We will begin our summer session. said MT. Davis. ''in Montgomery March 8 From Montgomery we will move to Birmingham March F, and for one week will sit in session at the Motion hotel. The reformation of the Judiciary is a big job. as everyone knows and at the same time a job necessarily to be performed for the good of the state. It is our hope that we will be able to reach de- cision which will guarantee that justice shall not be withheld longer than is nec- essary, and that great saving might be netted for the state''

A. ILLGES WAS WELL
 KNOWN IN THIS CITY
Prominent Columbus, Ga, Citizen, Who Died Last Week, Had h.
 vestments in Birmingham

Many Birmingham citizens will learn with regret of the death last week at his home in Columbus, Ga. of A. Illges, that section of Georgia. Mr. Illges had extensive investments in Birmingham and was well known here. He was the father of Mrs. Arthur Chenoweth and Mrs. Beach Chenoweth of this city. The Col nmbus Inqulrer-Sun pays the deceased cit izen the following tribute:
 In the passing away of Mir A. nlges, whose death occurred at his home in this city Tuesday night, after a brief illness, this community lost one of Its most prom inent and most useful citizens. For many years he was closely identified with the business interests of the city and with it's growth and advancement, and his contributions to these ends were by no means small. Of a modest. retiring dis position, one who did what he did in a quiet unostentatious way, he did not in any manner seek notoriety nor the plaud- its of those about him. but his aim was to do the good he could for the commun- ity and let the results speak for them- selves. In his dealings with his fellow men his course was always upright and honorable. No one who knew him doubt ed in the least that he was actuated by the highest motives of honesty and in- tegrity, and his loyalty to his friends and to his home town was so unmis- takable as to be unquestioned Tn his business undertakings his success was quite marked, and it was due to the close attention he gave to them. to his fairness and honorableness in dealing, and to his exceptionally fine business acumen
 While at no time did MT. Illges seek to be a leader in the advancement and upbuilding of the city and the commun. ity, those who knew him best-who were more closely and more intimately asso- ciated with him-were always aware o1 the fact that he felt a very deep interest in these things. and they also knew that he was very liberal in all things that he deemed worthy and meritorious. And in his quiet way he contributed largely to the public good.
 While his loyalty to his friends wal such as to challenge the admiration oi all, his home life was most beautiful It was one of complete devotion. He was a loving husband and an affection. ate. indulgent father.
 "In his death Columbus has indeed lost one of her best and most useful citi. zens.''

BOSTON PAPER TELLS
 OF ALASKA JUNEAU

BOSTON. April 24. Plans have been approved by the directors Of the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Go. for
 the immediate construction of an s. .OOO.ton mill Previous plans had in contemplation the building of a 6OOO. ton plant, By the time this enlarged plant is erected, say IS months hence, the mine will be fully able to supply the larger tonnage. The ulti- mate capacity of the mill will be two or three times this tonnage as the proposition expands.
 Some very favorable adyices have recently been received from the prop erty as Co ore values and while the management is not yet disposed to talk figures. we know that they eX- ceed the yield per ton recently named by President Bradley as the average recovery from 1896 to l9la-S2.26 per ton
 We hear that there is strong pos sibility that the stock may be listed on the Boston and New York stock and that perhaps one Bos. ton man at least may be invited to the board of directors
 It is interesting to know that in the recent offering of 100000 shares of treasury stock very large sub scription was received from the mon who work in the mine and the man agcment favored thcso applications in their allotment of the stock so far as 1t could in justice to the hundreds of other subscribers. .- tBoston News Bu- reau.)
