ringly bitter speech in the House against preparation for war-a speech so bitter in fact, that William Jennings Bryan, trembling with delight, wired congratulations
 And yesterday General Sherwood in troduced a bill providing for the es- tablishment of $5,000,000 plant for the manufacture of impleemntS and muni- tions or war at or near Toledo, O.-at or near the home of the author of the bill.
 The general quickly denied that his action in introducing the bill was the mark of inconsistency on his part He is still against preparedness He, how ever evidently recognized a certain need for preparing, for he said: q am not in favor of poverty; but as long as we must have poor people, favor building houses for the poor, and taking care of them"

SOUTHERN TO PAY
 OFF NOTES IN CASH

New York, January 21.-(speciaL) The Southern railway must meet $5,000,- 900 per cent notes on February 1. It was announced yesterday that these notes would be paid off in cash large amount of the money will be taken directly from the Southern railway s treasury and the balance will be ex- tended by J. P. Morgan & Co.,, bankers for the railway. There will be no pub lie financing. Later on, it is believed, the Southern will announce permanent financing which will also provide for the SIC, ,000, 900 notes due March 2, 1917. The remarkable saving in the South erns operating department in the last five months will come in good stead now. While gross revenues in this period showed only nominal improve ment, the net earnings increased by s2,50O,O00 or sufficient to provide for half of the indebtedness which must be met

M|DW|NTER PERIOD SAID ID BE WORST It is Chased as Hardest Time of Whole Year for
 Many People

The last weeks of winter, just before the opening of spring, is described as the most depressive and distressing time of the year. Particularly does this apply to the south. Invalids and the aged are then much enfeebled and find conditions more distressing than even in the hot weeks of midsummer. Late winter, with its grips and colds, find most people with more or less enerVated, weakened and sluggish systems. Many are bilious, de- biliated nervous and lacking in vgor. It is then healthful and natural tonic is needed. Vitalitas is such tonic and the whole year around it is effective in stimulating the liver and toning the en- tire system in a natural way Tens of thousands of people are constantly finding new health and strength in Vitalitas It will be found wonderfully effective in ban- ishing such ills as indigestion, biliousness, nervous debility, catarrh and the like. It is pleasant, and a teaspoonful in half glass Of hot cold water is the normal dose.

T%HE vlllainous son-in-law is final
 ly brought to justice in The
 \ New Henrietta" the revised comedy of Bronson Howard, by Win chell Smith and Victor Mapes, which will be at the Jefferson theatre Mon day and Tuesday nights with mati- nee on Tuesday. The story of the play is well remembered by ancient theatregoers and curiosity seekers amongst the younger set. It is about a wealthy stock broker who has stupid but virtuous son. He also has a son-in-aw who is anything but virtuous. This son-in-law has the in- side track of the old stockholders confidence and tries to put him on the financial skids, but the stupid son butts in and thwarts the plot in the third act If the son had shown that much intelligence in the first act there would have been no play.
 William H. Crane, Thomas w. Ross, Edith Taliaferro, Amelia Bingham and Maclyn Arbuckle are the head liners in the all-star company that will present the New Henrietta
 That the Golden Chance is one of the best pictures shown in Birming- ham in several weeks is the assertion of Manager T. s. Abernethy, who stated yesterday that this LaskyPar- amount feature would again be shown at the Strand theatre today. Cleo Ridgely and Wallace Reid are at their best in this picture of social intrigue.
 Manager S. S. Griffin of the Alcazar and Vaudette theatres has finally sue cumbed to the lure of chinkling nick els, and announced yesterday that he would hereafter open his theatres on Sunday.
 It had been the policy previously of the Acazar and Vaudette theatres to remain closed on Sunday, because the management believe that a large per- centage of the public was against the showing of pictures on the first day of the week. However, as weeks passed and Manager Griffin saw the other theatres on Second avenue mop ping up on Sunday and incidentally during the week, it suddenly dawned on him that all this alleged public opposition to Sunday moving pictures was an artificially created Illusion.

MALADIES OF INFANTS

The principal epidemic maladies of childhood-whooping cough, measles and scarlet fever-were together responsible for no fewer than 15,617 deaths of both adults and children, or 23.7 per 100000, in the registration area in 1914, the rates for the three diseases separately being 1O.3, 6.S and 66, respectively. In 1913 measles caused a greater mortality than either of the other diseases, but in 1914 Whoop- ing cough had first place. In every year since and including 1910 as well as in several preceding years, measles SIS caused a greater number of deaths than the much more dreaded scarlet fever The mortality rates for all three of these diseases fuctuate greatly from year to year. The rates for measles and scarlet fever in 1914 were the lowest in 15 years, while that for whooping cough was con siderably above the lowest recorded rate for this disease, 6.5 in 1904 although far below the highest 15.S in 1903
 Deaths due to railway accidents and injuries totaled 7C62, or 10.7 per 100000. This number includes fatalities resulting from collisions between railway trains and vehicles at grade crossings. The death rate from railway accidents and injuries is the lowest on record and shows most marked and gratifying decline as com pared with the rate for 1913, which was l3 per 100 600, and a still more pronounced drop from the average Tor the hVe-y ear period 1906-191O which was b per lO0,- 000.
 Deaths resulting from street car acci- dents and injuries numbered 1673, or 2.5 per 100000 This rate, like that for rail- way fatalities. is the lowest on record and shows a material falling off as com pared with 1913, when it was 3.2, and as compared with the average for the five year period 1906-1 1910, which was 3.7.
 1O,933 SUICIDES
 The number of suicides reported in 1914 was l0,933 or 16.6 per 100000 popula- tion. Of this number, 32S6 accomplished self-destructon by the use of firearms 5000 by poison, 1852 by hanging or strang- ulation. 1419 by asphyxia, 65S by the use of knives or other cutting or piercing in strunients, 619 by drowning, 225 by jump ing from high places, S9 by crushing and S5 by other methods

Its f1uctua tions from year to year, however, have been pronounced, whereas the decline in the rate for tuberculosis has been nearly continuous.
 The only remainining death rate higher than 100 per 100000 in 1914 was that for Bright's disease and acute nephritis, 102.4 The total number of deaths due to these maladies in 1914 was 67545, more than nine tenths of which were caused by Bright's disease and the remainder by acute nephi- tis.
