WEST FLORIDA
FAIR ASSN. IS
TOSTART WORK
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE BE-
GINS CAMPAIGN TO SELL
STOCK IN JACKSON COUNTY.
SPECIAL 10 THE JOURNAL

Mariana, Sept. 13.-The execu-
tive committee of the West Florida
Fair Association have begun an ac-
tive campaign to raise the necessary
funds for holding the annual fair
this fall. This is to be done by the
issuance of another block of stock
In the association, which is a duly
Incorporated company. Also, which
perhaps cannot be said of many fair
associations, the West Florida Fair
Association for the two years that
it has been incorporated, has paid a
dividend, which amounted to twelve
and half per cent in one year. This
is besides paying the lease on the
grounds, paying off the debt on the
buildings and making many improve
ments.
Altogether the fair has had a most
gratifying success and the entire sec
ton is much pleased that it has been
decided to hold the fair again this
fall despite the hard times. In this
connection it is said that while the
cotton crop is not more than fifty per
cent of normal, there is a larger corn
and general food crop produced in
Jackson county than for any year
since the war. There is also a move
ment in the direction of making the
county a center for the production
of thoroughbred stock, large mum
Der of the best grades of cows ant
hogs now being raised. The appear
ance this year of the boil weevi
means the end of the cotton industry
as the chief concern Of the section
and it is believed that fair at this
time showing the many profitable
things that can be produced in the
place of cotton will be of inestimable
benefit to the farmers.
The date of the fair has not YET
been fixed.
MARIANNA HOSPITAL.
A local hospital is being planned
by the physicians and surgeons Of
Mariana and jackson county, and il
| is confidently expected that one vii
be built in this city during the com
ing winter. The Jackson County
| Medical Association is one of the
strongest, both professionally and
financially, in the entire state, and
| if the hospital is agreed upon there
will be no difficulty in funding the
proposition nor in operating the hos
pital when built.

BID MADE FOR
new CONTRACT
GEORGE G. BROWN WOULD DO
THE WORK FOR LESS THAN
THE CITY is NOW PAYING FOR
THE SAME.

Guaranteeing to do the work as
well if not better than the present
contractor, George G. Brown yester-
day filed with the board of commits
missioners an application for the gar
bage removal, offering to move the
waste in the present area with salts
faction, and giving guarantee to
that effect, for $240 per month. At
present the city is paying L. Film
GIN $3.50 for the same work.
There was some considerable inter
est in the lower bid, for the commits
sioners boldly assert that they are
trying to retrench in every way pos
sible, and the present instance, being
competitive bid, is one which called
for more than ordinary attention. Mr.
Fillingim has been looking after this
work for about a month, and is gen
orally giving satisfaction, paying
personal attention to protests which
are filed from every part of the city.
It was stated that the city wagons
were needed in other departments II
the street work, hence the signing OF
the contract with the present contrac-
tor.

Why Not Have
Curly, Wavy Hair?

While abroad last year. a matron much
envied for her youthful looks generously
confded to me several little beauty
secrets which I prize highly. One of the
best of these is that straight hair can
be made wavy and curly over night by
merely applying a little liquid silmerine.
Some peculiar attribute Of this harmless
fluid causes the hair to dry in the most
exquisite curls and waves, having all
the appearance of true naturalness.
Ny friends who have tried this are
simply delighted. I find that pure liquid
silmerine can be procured from any
druggist here, and a few ounces viii keep
the hair in a curl for several weeks.
There's nothing gImmy, greasy or
messy about it: on the contrary. il is
quite pleasant to use Pm sure if you
will try this tonight-apply with a clean
tooth brush "a look in your mir

BIDDING
ON CITY STABLE
THREE CONTRACTORS SUBMIT.
TED ESTIMATES. AND CRON,l
WILL PROBABLY BE AWARDED
THE JOB.

Three bids for the erection of city
stables were received and opened at
the city hall yesterday afternoon.
Very little difference was noted in the
bidding of two of the contractors, but
the third was so much below the
others that it was tacitly admitted
the low man would readily be given
the contract, and that the question
would be settled at conference of
the commissioners today.
All the bidders would turn out the
work inside of seventy working days,
and they respectfully offered to full
full the contract upon the following
basis:
S. F. Fulghum Co. 1000. 81, 657 90
C. H. Turner Co., .... 4,347.00
J. M. Crona ....... 100000
The Fulghum Company offered to
use stone in the work for an addition
al $3.50, but nothing was said about
that material by the other two bid
ders. The Crona bid was favorably
commented on after the figure had
been learned, and this was the one
more favorably impressing the com
missioners.

MEDICAL SOCIETY
 CONDEMNS BILLS Opposes Proposed Changes In Regulating Meat and
 Milk Supplies

At the regular meeting of the Jef- ferson County Medical society held al the Birmingham Medical college last night the report of the health com mittee containing resolutions opposing any of the proposed bills seeking tc change the method of regulation oi meat and milk supplied citizens was unanimously adopted.
 Dr. R. NJ. Cunningham. city health officer in speaking on the report oi the committee. said that all the pro posed bills he had seen contained T provision taking the regulation of meat and milk from the hands of ths city authorities pr. Cunningham said this would be d very pernicious step and voiced his opposition to 1t. He strongly indorsed the resolutions.
 The report of tho committee was as follows:
 "The committee of health would sug- gest to the society the following pre- amble and resolutions as basis or suggestion for action in the matter of the bill to be offered to the leg slature by parties seeking rad eal changes in our present milk and meat law and practices:
 "Whereas, bill has been prepared for presentation to the legislature en- titled 'an act to provide for the in- spection and regulation of dairies and dairy products and to provide for the appointment of an inspector of the same, and to provide penalties for the violation of the regulations and pro- visions relating to such inspection in the county of Jefferson, etc. and.
 "Whereas, officials of the city health department to whom this act has been submitted by the commissioners of Bir- mingham have advised against it in the most unqualified manner, whether viewed from the standpoint of milk and food regulations or from the stand point of municipal finances; and.
 Whereas. this county board of health, after due consideration, coin cides with the viewpoint of the health officer inspectors and workers in the city health department. to-wit: That such a proposed change in existing laws would fail to accomplish benefits for the people of the county and its municipalities, would result in q marked and immediate lowering ol standards and of efficiency: and would of course break down at once co. herent system that has proven work able and efficient; and,
 Whereas. this county board oi health holds welfare of the people ol the county and municipalities to be the supreme aim of it's official efforts therefore be 1t
 Resolved and it is herewith resolved by the Jefferson County Medical SO ciety in it's capacity of county ooare of health, that the representatives o Jefferson county in the senate anC house are hereby urged to use theii utmost endeavors toward combating In it's incipiency this attack on or ganized municipal food protection.

At The Majestic

Birmingham people by the hundreds
 went on their most marvellous and won-
 derful tour of sightseeing yesterday at
 the Majestic theatre when the William
 son submarine motion pictures were
 shown here for the first time. Sights
 that had hitherto been mysteries were re- vealed, and the bottom of the ocean was made to give up its secrets. To say the least, the pictures are among the most unusual, novel and entertaining that have ever been shown here. There is thrill about them at all times for the spectator realizes that they are made many feet under the water, and at the risk frequently of life and limb. Such
 scene as a man battling with a monster shark brings a thrill. even though it Is seen only in picture. and the result
 of the fight is already known.
 The Williamson expedition from the first to the last is shown in detail. The wonderful apparatus, the invention of Captain Williamson. is shown in detail It is a long, flexible tube, about three feet in diameter, which is lowered into the water to the desired depth. At the bottom is large dome or bell in which two men can work with ease. One uses the film camera while the other directs the movements of the tube. They can stay under water any length of time. as fresh air reaches them down the tube. Ine expeu1tlOn IS then SnOWn under way, and many interesting views of the West Indies are exhibited. Arrived at the suit ale grounds for submarine pictures. the tube is lowered and the camera man be- gins to grind off hundreds of feet of film which reveal sights man has never seen before. Fish, shells, wrecks, the remains of boats, the forests and the flowers of the sea are all shown. Thou sands of different kinds of fish pass in front of the camera and turtle is shown as 1t emerges from the egg and grows. More than 100 miles of the bot tom of the sea is shown, and it is a constant change of interest
 Finally bait is lowered over the side and the sharks are attracted. They are shown feeding; one is shown caught on hook, and he is landed Then na- tive diver goes down for fight with I shark, but fails to kill the fish in front of the camera. One of the Williamson brothers then undertakes the dangerous mission, and after failure once, finally succeeds. It is a wonderful sight, as is
 the entire picture.
 The pictures are shown in continuous performance from 12 m. to 10 p. m daily this week. A lecturer. who is an artist, talks about the pictures at four of the performances, two in the afternoon and two in the evening.
