A Man by That Name in the City Jail on “Sus picion." Who is Mr. Fred W. Mozart? A man by that name bearing letters from Massachusetts, Oregon, Colorado and Rhode Island is in the hospital at the city prison. He fainted yesterday in the union depot and was taken to the hospital. When he recovered he climbed over the transom and tried to make his way out of the city to Atlanta. Officer Walker detained him and carried him to the police station, where he is held on the charge of suspicion. From the letters on his person he is evidently a man with a history. He has tender letters from a sister and from one who is evidently a sweetheart. The style of the correspondence bears testi- , mony of polite society. The letters Insin uate that he is an outcast from the home' of his nativity and exhorted him to J "mend his habits” and retrieve his nahne. A State-Herald reporter was granted an Interview by special courtesy of the police with Mozart last night. When brought under the full glare of the elec tric lights Mozart presented an appear ance that would excite the commtssera tion of those who are accustomed to criminals and the subterfuges adopted by them. He was 6 feet 2 inches tall, and weighed about 160 pounds. He seemed wasted from disease or nervous prostra tion. He requested the reporter to not : pubysh his name, saying he "disliked to j See the name of Mozart connected in any way with anything that is not laudable. 1 My father is a well-known artist, and the name of John Jones would serve your reading public Just as well." However, facts are facts, and the name in the State-Herald had to appear as the docket shows It. Mozart will be released today or held if descriptive querries from the' police to various cities request it. GOOD FISHING AT EAST LAKE.

Sid Jones, land and Immigra tion ngent of the Louisville and Nash ville, returned from Chicago Sunday night. He brings back with him good news with reference to the sentiment that has been created in the northwest In favor of Alabama as a home for thrif ty farmers. He says thousands of north westerners will come south this winter, and that Alabama will get her share of them. A party of prospectors will be here within the next two or three days to look over the territory and select a location for a colony of several hundred people. The Concordia Colonization and Im provement association of Thorsby, Chil ton county, have arranged to run a homeseekers' excursion train, with tour ist and Pullman sleepers from Minne apolis, Minn.to Thorsby, Ala., leaving the former place on the 11th of December, with tickets good for twenty days.
