 Tho only advanced step secured by ths insurgents was more generous basis of representation. Under the new scheme each county will have as many delegates in convention as it has in the state legisla- ture, provided no county shall have less than two. This came. however, not as result of strength Of arms, but through voluntary concession on the part of IT. Sanders.

RAISE PROMENADE ,. AT PRESS CLUB CAFE
Will Give Diners Unequaled View of Birmingham.
 Other Improvements

In order to render the roof garden cafe of the Birmingham Newspaper club more inviting, if possible there was awarded yesterday contract to raise the prom enade level on the twenty-sixth floor in order that a grand view of Birmingham may be obtained by diners while seated at the promenade tables
 This announcement will be received with wide interest by the members of the club and it's friends throughout Alabama. The floor will be raised about two feet, which will enable a person dining outside the dining room to look over the shrubbery planted along the parapet.
 It was also announced by w. A. Dam eron secretary of the club, that the officials had authorized the construction of an awning over the entire promenade, which will protect diners from the glare of the sun during the daytime and from any shower or mist of the night
 When the club was constructed the de- slgners erected around the promenade high parapet for purposes of safety and for the sake of artistic finish. The plan was tolerated during the past summer, but it was evident from expressions received from the members that an elevated floor was desirable, and it was accordingly de- cded upon.
 It was stated yesterday that the club would have the improvements completed during the next 10 days. This plan Will enable the club to cater to larger gath erings than in the past on account or space and will also enable greater num- Der to enjoy the dances in the cafe. It is stated that within a few weeks the reg ular summer dances which were so pop ular last season will be resumed There will be chaperones for each dance, and if the same popularity is attested this sumner as last it is believed that the dances will be participated in by a large number of the members and their friends. The floor of the press club is considered especially well adapted for dances, and during the winter many notable affairs of that character have been given there.

TELLS OF MAKING
 SPURIOUS COINS
Joel Boykin, Negro, Impli- cated in Confession of
 Brown and Rearrested

An interesting story of how two ne- gro dentists manufactured s5 gold pieces was told yesterday afternoon at the hearing held before Judge R. 5. Watts in the case of Joel Boykin, charged with issuing counterfeit com. It will be recalled that Boykin and his partner, J. c. Brown, were arrest ed on April by agents of the United States government on charge of counterfeltng. Several counterfeit gold coins were found on the person of Brown and he was identified as hav- ing passed bogus coin on a South ride merchant.
 At the preliminary hearing Brown pleaded guilty to showing the queer, but denied the manufacture of the coins and further stated that Boykin had nothing to do with the matter. As the government had no evidence Against Boykin he was released and Brown bound over to await the action of the federal grand jury.
 During the past few days Boykin was rearrested on the same charge on the grounds that Brown had made a later confession which implicated him lot only in the manufacture or the phoney coins but in the passing of them.
 At the hearing yesterday Brown de- scribed in detail the process by which the coins were made. In a clear man. ner he told of the wonderful inge- nuity used to make the coins which 
 experts to be well nigh perfect. he stated that with the exception of a breast drill used for forcing the metal into the mold all the apparatus used for such is found in any working den- tist's office.
 He stated that he and Boyl1in com menced the manufacture of the coun- terfeit coins last winter and that they made from eight to ten month, in all about 50 or so coins. He said that he passed the majorlty of them ana that he and Boyl<in divided the profits and expenses equally. He told of the va rious places in which materials were bought and of the places that he and Boykin passed the coins.
 On cross examination he stuck prac- tically to his direct testimony. In an- swer to question as to why he changed his testimony since the pre- liminary hearing ho said he had been siven to understand that if he told all he knew about the case he would be given a lighter sentence when ar raigned for trial.
 The government will complete it's case this morning and the examna- tion of witnesses for the defense will tegin. Among those examined yester- day were Capt F. P. McAdams Of the local secret service bureau, Capt G. C. Willis, chief deputy marshal; N. '. Brown F. E. Wiggins, Will Franklin, H. A Stopher, M. Veil. I. Manson and Dr. King.
 Attorneys Beddow and Oberdorfer gre representing the. defendant. Cap tain McAdams and Captain Willis were present in the interest of the govern ment.

This ab- sorption process being purely hygienic one an entirely natural complexion is acuuired--quite different from the arti- ficfal complexion, which appears any thing but girlish, though often bearing painful evidence of childishnesss., An ounce of mercolized wax obtainabie at nate any complexion. It is put on like cold cream at bedtime, and removed mornings with warm water.
 To eradicate such age marks as wrin- lxles and furrows. make a wash lotion by dIssolving 1 oz. powdered saxolite in E pt. witch hazel. This has wonderful astringent and tonic properties. It quickly effaces all kinds of wrinkles, no matter how caused. making the skin firm, smooth and young looking.

We simply want to urge the legisla- ture to support Governor Henderson in ais efforts to get the state out of debt and put the treasury on firm financial foat- ing. We believe that if the legislature acts in this regard according to the ideas of the governor, the credit of the state will be redeemed. and it's financial condi- ton rendered excellent.

standing it was their duty to compel this inspector to perform his duty. or fire him. It did not take an expert to know that the walls of this burnt 4-story building were dangerous. I can find you hundreds of citizens who remarked upon the folly and danger of allowing this apparent death trap to remain standing. In fact, am informed by reliable parties that one of the unfortunate victims of this gross criminal negligence upon the part If our officials had repeatedly requested our commissioners to have these walls torn down.
 Now, MT. Editor, feeling as I do about this matter, after hearing the expressions of numbers of good citizens on the sub- ject, think that the only thing that will satisfy the public indignation and wrath of our best citizens is to punish this build- ing inspector and our two junior commis- sioners severely. I think we should for give Mir. Lane, as he Is so old that he could not well see these dangerous walls as he passed along Second avenue.

 ish Them at Once

The work of searching the debris of the Ham Shoe company and the Atlantic and Pacific Tea company buildings. which were destroyed by the east wall of the burned Steele-Smth building falling upon them, was completed yesterday about noon. The total number of dead claimed by the disaster is eight. as follows
 Alex Mcleod, 5so Prnccton avenue, West End

Miss Nellie Devne, and Miss Marie Dedman, the sister of Miss Matte Lou Dedman. who met her death in the disaster. As yet Miss Ded- man is not aware that her sister is dead. the tact being kept away from her on account of her nervous condition Those who were supposed to have been missing have been found.
 Searchers Complete Work
 It was with a sigh of relief that the searehers realized that their work had been completed Every man had reached the limit of his endurance.
 T am sure there are no more bodies in the debris, said Carl Wittichen, who. with Sid Cowan, B, Mcintyre and several others, has been on the job practically ever since the accident occurred. Tt Is with a feeling of relief that we know no more unfortunates are in the ruins. On this point we are all satisfied"
 The work of raging the buildings will be started immediately. The front wall of the Steele-Smlth building is said to be out of plumb about IS inches and leaning towards the street. The space around all the ruined buildings will remained roped ard under police supervision until all the buildings are completely torn down. At the present time they are considered a decided menace to pedestrians as well as to the ajacent buildings on either side.
 ''I was in dread all the time we were some of my men would be killed by other walls falling" said Sid Cowan. There is no doubt but that they are exceedingly dangerous, and the authorities should not wait an indefinite period before going to work to demolish them. Now Is the time, and the people want to see it uone.~
