ANNISTON BUSINESS
 HINDERED BY RAINS

Anniston, July 7.-(Special)-Wit pre- cipitation amounting to nearly sever inches in AS hours, record has been es tablished for continuous rainfall at An. niston, where there has been hardly a moments cessation since 1 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, as a result oi which damage amounting to hundreds ot dollars hss been done and business ir the downtown district has been practic- ally at a standstill.
 Streams In every section of the county have been overflowing for two days. Few persons have come to town from the country, railway schedules have been dis arranged and wire companies consider ably embarrassed. although both tele- graph companies, the Southern Bell and the Alabama Power company have kept men constantly on the job repairing dam- ages
 The streets of Anniston have been cor roded severely, to damage of several hundred of dollars, but thes worst damage has been sustained in the country around the city. G. w. Eichelberger, manager of the Farmers Union warehouse. stated Friday afternoon that the rain will have the effect of putting the plant down and putting the price up,' as far as cot ton is concerned.

.DENNERS ID DECIDE
 WHETHER CITY CAN
 INSTALL CLOSETS
Test Case to Be Heard To- day-Will Be Taken to
 Supreme Court

The test case in which the right of the city of Birmingham to make sanitary i connections at private dwellings and as-
 sess the same against the property will be
 heard before Judge Benners today, and when a decision is rendered it will be l carried to the supreme court. Assistant
 City Attorney Jenkins appears for the city and Gibson & Davis for the peti- tioner. It was set for trial Friday but went over until today.
 | This suit was brought at the instance of | Commissioner Hornady and is friendly | in it's nature. J. H. Spear appears as petitioner and the commissioners of the city of Birmingham as respondents, and 1 the outcome is of vital importance to the city.
 In speaking of it, Commissioner Hor- nady said: If we win this case it will
 mean an early solution of Birmingham S greatest sanitary problem. Once the right of the city to install sanitary con- nections has been established, the great est difficulty in the way of eliminating dry closets will be done away with. "As matters stand now it is impossible to get connections in some cases, and as a result dry closets are found in sections that should be absolutely free of such sources of contamination. The existence Of some of these closets Is due to circum- stances that cannot be overcome under present conditions. For instance, there are numerous cases among my records where such homes are owned by widows who have the greatest difficulty in pro- viding for their children and who cannot
 borrow a dollar on their homes because their husbands left no will. In other
 tIN ,4rrox 4I %D ,DI,
 an extent that it is impossible to borrow another dollar. I have one case in which
 the husband has been in bed for seven
 years with a broken back, and the wife
 ekes out poor existence by keeping a
 COW and raising a few vegetables. To arrest such people, which is the only al- formative we have, would not help mat ters and in such cases there is little hope of relief unless plan can be adopted under which the city can make the con- nections and permit the property holders to pay the cost in small installments.
 During the past six years we have waged a vigorous campaign to bring about
 wholesale sanitary connections and hun dreds of dry closets have been elimi- mated, but in the course of the campaign scores of cases have arisen where it was physical impossibility tolforce compli- ance with the law, and the problem will not be solved in it's entirety until the city
 has the right to make these improvements and assess them against the property,
 just as it makes street improvements. This is the point involved in the pending case. and if the city gets a favorable de- cison it will mark the beginning of the end of bad sanitary conditions in this
 city.
 Tn spite of the fact that we encounter great difficulty in bringing about unf- versal connection after sewers have been laid, we are going ahead with new exten- sons as rapidly as the plans can be worked out, and in the next few months there will be great activity along these lines"

 Gertrude Robinson and James Cooley, two well known photoplay- CTS, have the leading roles in this production, which is based on the most delicate of subjects and their work is fully in keeping with the dramatic possibilities of the story they portray.
 In "The Concealed Truth" it is frankly the purpose of the producer to show the misfortunes that be- fall whole household following a marriage that is founded neither on love nor in reason. A spade is called a spade in The Concealed Truth" and it undoubtedly will
 
 it's principal aim is to visualize a lesson of the effects of the loose morality of men prior to marriage. The story is of two brothers, one of whom marries the girl both claim to love. The marriage is an unhappy one, and after many deli cate subjects have been thoroughly emphasized the husband is mur- dered by a mysterious shot through a window while in conversation with his brother. The brother is arrested and convicted. Just as he is marching to the electric chair he is repreived by the governor, as a former paramour of the dead man has confessed to the murder.
