OF course they weren't married.
She was only masquerading as his

was dead-that he had committed
suicide-and SO she said she was his
widow. She did it because she wanted
to get away from her WI home, get
herself lost so that her relatives
couldn't find her. and this method
seemed the most feasible and effec-

MUST PAY TAXES
 BEFORE MARCH 1. Hawkins Says Tax Sale Will Be Month Earlier This
 Year Than Usual

James F. Hawkins, county tax collec- tor, announces that the annual tax sales will be held about a month earlier than usual this year. Unpaid taxes will be certified to the probate judge promptly on March 1, which means that a citation will be served by that of ficial to appear and show cause why the property should not be sold to sat isfy the taxes.
 It has been customary in the past to allow a period of grace of about one month, but this year the lists are to be turned over to the probate court promptly on the date specified by law. Discussin the matter yesterday Col lector Hawkins said:
 The code provides that the tax col lector must certify to the probate judge, on or before March 1 of each year. the names of all parties who have not paid their taxes; that the probate judge shall issue a citation to such taxpayer. which shall be served by the tax col lector, to appear and show cause why such property should not be sold for taxes.
 There is a provision following this clause which says that if for any cause March 1, it can be done later and 1t shall not invalidate the sale. Under the provision of this last clause 1t has been customary to certify this list about April 1. but this year we are go- ing to enforce the letter and spirit of the law and send this list over on March 1. In other words, we will have our tax sale about one month earlier than heretofore"

Coal mines in the Birmingham district producing steam coal are making about 6 per cent full time, while those produc- ply the demand for their product, &C., cording to statements made by coal op- orators and coal merchants yesterday The reason of the lessened production oi steam coal is said to be general slack ening of industrial activity, especially ot cotton mills, many of which throughout the south, as well as the east, are shut down.
 ''The view seems to be general that this is . temporary condition said W. Car son Adams of the Adams Rowe Norman company. yesterday, "and that whom the industries strike their stride we will have general prosperity. The period of adjustment which we are now passing through, with the manufacturers and may happen, should be over in a few months. and then there will be demand for all the steam coal we can produce ''
 Tehre is very little demand for the low CT grades of steam coal. fair demand for the better grades and a demand in excess of the supply for all domestic grades.
 Bunkerage coal has net felt the de- pression to the extent that other grades have been affected. the calls for this product at New Orleans. Mobile and Sa- vannah being about normal. Birmingham supplies the bulk of the coal for steam ships calling at Mobile, Pensacola, New Orleans and Savannah, but very little to other ports. The sailings from these ports are increasing from week to week and with the revival of general business both domestic and international, which is expected to set in soon. the demand for bunkerage coal from this district vii be constantly increasing.
 Several ships have recently been re. turned by the government to their own CTS and as fast as possible these are be- ing put in the coastwise and South Amer ican trade, great many of the fruit vessels having Already resumed theil regular ssilings from Mobile and New Orleans.
