(Editor’s Note: This is a continuation of Mr. Maxwell’s article last week on the old resort at Windham Springs.)
I RECALL a family of Birds and friends who made the trip to Windham Springs from Eutaw. There were about eight people with two two-mule team wagons loaded with baggage and camping equipment (tents) to use in the compound since there were no vacancies at the hotel or cottages.
It required one long day to travel the 35 miles from Eutaw to Tuscaloosa where they spent the night at the hotel. The next day they reached Windham at about 8 p.m. They were too tired to pitch camp that night and they begged Mr. Baker, the innkeeper, to take care of them just one night. Having no vacancies in the hotel or cottages, Mr. Baker told them that the only thing he could offer was the use of the cotton house on the grounds, explaining that he had never seen the inside of the house.
After giving the group their supper (he had to wake up the cook, Dave Watts), they went to the cotton house to break off the rusty padlock and clean up to give the ladies a place to sleep. I have never heard such screaming as these ladies made as they rushed to the hotel. In the middle of the floor of the cotton house was a complete human skeleton.
I gave my room to the ladies that night while I slept in a hammock in front of the hotel. The men slept on the hotel front porch.
The coroner made no findings of foul play and it was conceded that it was either a specimen skeleton for a doctor’s office or else the person had died a natural death in the cotton house.
Mr. Baker’s son Terrell and I were able to finance ourselves for the rest of the Summer by relocating the skeleton, piece by piece on the second floor of the store (in the outer room of the W.O.W. hall, which was then inactive) and charging five or 10 cents admission to see the skeleton. Terrell and I chuckled many times to hear the positive identification made by viewers such as “that must be Uncle Jim. You know he disappeared about seven years ago.” (Yes, that was feuding country in those days.)
But I think I’ll always remember the hotel cook – Dave Watts - and his wonderful meals, chicken three times a day and his delightful Sally Lunn bread.

It was a 1909 four-passenger Buick, planetary transmission, four cylinder, right hand drive, open car painted white. It was a new car when the Tuscaloosa owner bought it but the car had had a long and misspent life when J.C. bought it and took it home in the northern hills of Tuscaloosa County.
After a few days of trial and error in driving and repairing the car, J.C. declared he was through with it and offered it for sale for $100.
J.C.’s oldest son bought it, used it for a while but spent more time and money on the car than he did in driving.
The car was sold to J.C.’s second son who soon sold it to the third son. The third son gave the car to the fourth and youngest son.
J.C. came into Tuscaloosa one day and was asked about his car. “I’m through with automobiles. They are nothing but a trial and tribulation to man and an abomination unto the Lord. Why, that one car broke all four of my sons and had me badly bent. I’m through.”

THERE HAVE been many steam boiler explosions, most of them with serious consequences. Almost invariably the cause is due to allowing the boiler water level to get too low and then injecting cold water on the too hot boiler plates, generating a quick flash of steam that can and usually does cause the boiler to burst but remain in the same location.
Tuscaloosa had a unique case in 1900 (circa). The Tuscaloosa Ice Co. was located in the center of the east part of the city block just north of the old Post Office (and now the City Hall) at the corner of 5th St. and 22nd Ave.
On this occasion it seems that the fireman allowed the boiler water to give out completely. The entire boiler apparently got red hot. The fireman injected water and with a terrific explosion the boiler was projected out of the roof of the boiler room, thence over intervening buildings, over the three-story First National Bank building (now Adrians Department Store), and to the Atlanta Store (now the First National Bank Building) where it crashed through the roof and came to rest on the second floor. This was an aerial trip of nearly two city blocks. The Maxwell Brothers warehouse in close proximity to the boiler explosion was not struck by the boiler (it cleared it) but there were over 150 holes in the warehouse roof from bricks, pipe and other debris.
An inspector from the Hartford Insurance Co. (veteran boiler insurance underwriters) walked around the boiler on the second floor of the Atlanta Store and then remarked, in substance, “I take my hat off to this one. In my many years of boiler explosions I have never seen anything like this.”
The best explanation I’ve ever heard of the cause of the aerial trip of the boiler is that when water was injected on the superheated red hot boiler that it was converted directly into its atomic elements—oxygen and hydrogen (H2O) instead of steam. The enormous increase in pressure volume content gave it the power to “take off” and follow the trajectory that ensued.
In a way the trip by this boiler antedated the present day of rockets by about 40 years.

BEFORE the white man came into this vicinity the entire area was under the control of a large swarthy Indian chief by the name of Tushkaloosa. This name, when anglizied or translated, means Black Warrior.
It is not strange therefore that the beautiful river that flows by the fair city of Tuscaloosa was officially called the Black Warrior.
In the northwest part of the state the Sipsey River and Little Warrior join to form the Mulberry which then joins with the Locust to form the headwaters of the Black Warrior River.
The Black Warrior flows in a southerly direction by Tuscaloosa, Eutaw and Greensboro, flowing into the Tombigbee River at Demopolis, then into the Alabama River at Calvert, into the Mobile River, Mobile Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.
Originally the river was affected by the tides as far as Jackson and was navigable to Millwood (Greensboro) for from 10 to 12 months a year and to Tuscaloosa about 9 to 11 months a year with a 2 to 4 foot minimum depth, sufficient for steam paddle wheel boats. The headwater of navigation was at Tuscaloosa due to the shoals—Squaw Shoals, where the river bottom rose over 30 feet within two miles, thereby causing rapids.
The government engineers installed Locks and Dams No. 1-9 (circa 1895) below Tuscaloosa and this gave a 7 foot river channel the year round to Tuscaloosa, still the headwater of navigation of the river. The 7 feet channel permitted the use of underwater propellers on riverboats.
Locks 10, 11, and 12 (called by Tuscaloosans 1-2-3) overcame Squaw Shoals and opened the river to “Tidewater” located just below the future Lock 13.
This opened the Tuscaloosa coal field to the Gulf. The first barge of coal (mined at Tidewater) that passed through Lock 10 was christened with a bottle of champagne at a public ceremony by Jennie Cochrane Maxwell on Jan. 19, 1896.
By 1905, Lock 13 was completed and this opened up access to several new coal mines and tipples in the area. Locks 14, 15, 16 and 17 followed in order and were completed in 1910-15. This gave Birminghamport (35 miles from Birmingham) a 9 foot channel the year round to the Gulf.
Then followed an era of modernization on the river system to speed up traffic and to facilitate lockage. One lock with 45 foot lift could replace three of 15 foot lift.
Roughly, the following improvements were accomplished:
• In 1961 the Jackson lock replaced Locks 1, 2, 3.
• In 1955 the Demopolis lock replaced Locks 4, 5, 6, 7.
• In 1957 the Eutaw lock replaced 8 and 9.
• In 1940 the Oliver lock replaced 10, 11, and 12.
• In 1966 the Holt lock replaced 13, 14, 15 and 16.
• In 1971 Lock 17 is being modernized.
There are now six locks and dams in place of 17.
The Warrior-Tombigbee waterway is a navigation channel 9 feet deep and where practical, 200 feet wide, from Mobile to points on three headwater streams of the Black Warrior River a few miles above Birmingham, a total distance of 462 miles.
The scenic beauty of the river above the Holt Lock and Dam is said to rival or equal the Palisades on the Hudson River.

IF YOU walked around town and asked five or six elder citizens where the old “tan-yard” was located, chances are that more than one would ask, “what’s a tan-yard?”
The dictionary defines tanning as “to convert (a skin) into leather; originally and still generally by impregnation with an infusion of oak bark or other form of tannic acid.” The resulting leather is tan in color, hence the name. A tan-yard is a place where this process is carried out.
The most recent tan-yard in this city was probably located at the north end of Monroe St. (23rd Ave.) close to the Warrior River. It is shown on the projection map of Tuscaloosa dated 1887 as the small building next to the river. This is the one I remember.
An older and larger tan-yard is mentioned in Matt Clinton’s history of Tuscaloosa on page 46. This was owned by Petite Marlow, a wealthy free Negro. It was indicated on an old map as being between the Sander’s Ferry Road and the river and what would be 42nd St (just west of the present Tuscaloosa Country Club).
An interesting by-product of a tannery is the discarded oak bark after it has served in the leather making process. It is considered ideal for circus rings, athletic running tracks, and if enough is available, for horse racing tracks.

AT THE foot of “River Hill” (24th Ave.) an interesting complex of manufacturing plants were located. Included in this group were:
A cotton mill.
A plow manufacturing company.
A foundry.
A “shot tower”.
What is a “shot tower”? Well it is a tall tower resembling a smokestack. The one mentioned above was made of brick masonry. At the top molten lead was poured through a wire screen. The size of the mesh determined the size of the shot.
As these lead pellets or droplets fell the height of the shot tower they solidified into round shot suitable for use in a shotgun. The final catch basin was filled with either water or oil depending on whether the final shot would be “soft” or “chilled”.

Late in the Nineteenth Century Tuscaloosa obtained its “tap” water from a private company later purchased and operated by the city (circa 1910).
The “Pump House” was just west of Riverview and the water was drawn from the bottom of the river some distance from the riverbank and thence bumped to the “Water Tower” located on 27th Ave. just north of 5th St.
Many citizens filtered the water to remove the muddy discoloration while most families boiled their drinking water or imported in jugs or demi johns the necessary drinking water.
To obtain a better and more palatable supply of drinking water the City of Tuscaloosa had an artesian well and drinking fountain installed in the heart of town. The four-sided fountain was installed in the center of the intersection of 6th St. and 24th Ave. The well was bored midway between the Alston Building and a store, just east of the line of pedestrian traffic. The pump and motor were in a pit below ground. This water was extensively used for drinking for all who would come after it.
An interesting incident occurred one day when the water failed to flow although the pump was operating at normal speed. City policeman Alex Simpson was accompanying Clayton Strickland who was called to locate and repair the trouble. The trouble was located instantly. When a match was struck in the pit there was a terrific explosion. The well was emitting an inflammatory gas instead of water. Clayton Strickland received severe injuries from this explosion resulting in lifetime facial scars and the loss of most of the exterior of his ears.
Soon after this incident the city filtered and treated the “tap” water so the fountain was no longer needed and was removed.

IF YOU like excitement together with a spice of danger you should have made a trip at night through the old Northport Covered Bridge under the following conditions:
This covered bridge, about 60 feet long, was located between the Warrior River Bridge and the M&O overhead trestle in Northport spanning a ravine on the street paralleling the river.
Many Northport boys were jealous of Tuscaloosa boys who called on Northport girls. Should a Tuscaloosa swain have a date with the best of a Northport dandy, the strategic spot to get even was within this covered bridge.
Usually the attack came from above from overhead rafters: Perched on this lofty seat, bricks and rocks were dropped in an indiscriminate manner. A pistol shot in this enclosed corridor sounded like a cannon. If you were driving a horse and buggy the horse also shared your consternation.
No matter how brave you felt, on approaching the covered bridge the goose pimples always came and the uncertainty of a surprise attack gave you a wonderful feeling when you had made it to the Tuscaloosa side.

The first motion picture to be exhibited in Tuscaloosa was one of the feature attractions of a transient street fair or carnival (circa 1905) which set up its tents in the street in the heart of town before these streets were paved. The moving picture tent was located in the middle of Greensboro Ave. between Brown’s Dept. Store and what is now Black, Friedman & Winston.
When Thomas A. Edison invented the moving picture camera and the projector (circa 1893) there were no movie studios, directors or producers so Mr. Edison set up to make his own films as the first director and producer. If not the first picture, it was by far the most notable he produced. The name of this picture was “The Great Train Robbery” and was released circa 1903. This was the picture shown in the first exhibition outline above as Tuscaloosa’s introduction to the movies.
Only a short while later a vacant store (about 514 24th Ave.) opened up as Tuscaloosa’s first movie theatre. It was named or known as “The Nickelodeon” as were many others over the country that charged an admission fee of five cents. It was not too much later that the fee was raised to 10 cents, but the name nickelodeon remained.
A little later The Nickelodeon moved one block south on 24th Ave. to where Stallworth’s meat market had been located. To the best of my recollection Dave Cypress operated this picture show at each of these locations.
The first movie theater to be built as such was the Diamond which was erected on the corner of 7th St. and 24th Ave. (now occupied by Quinn’s Hardware Store). This was a joint enterprise by J.Q. Bush and R.H. Little and they soon added the Belvedere (next to the Alston Bldg.) and the Princess on University Blvd., where Gray’s Men’s Shop is now located.
When the Belvedere burned in 1921 it was rebuilt as the Ritz and operated by C.B. Grimes who introduced the first talking pictures in Tuscaloosa. When the First National Bank 10-story building was erected in 1934 the Bama Theatre was built. In 1938 the Bama moved to the new City Hall Bldg. at 6th St. and 24th Ave. and the Druid took over the old Bama location next to the bank.
Today there are many suburban and/or open air movie theatres in the Tuscaloosa area, however none of these have the personality or individuality of the early local movie theatres (the “flickers”). So I would like to end this article with a salute to Pearl White and the “Perils of Pauline” and the other continued weekly series that held such a captive audience in suspense.

DO YOU remember Tuscaloosa’s cigar factory and its “Bushy Tail” cigar? It was located on University Blvd. just west of Johnny’s Restaurant on 24th Ave.
It was a “one man” factory, and Gonzales, who was both proprietor and staff, seemed to be an indefatigable worker. His workbench was back of a front window of the shop so any passerby could get a good look at the process of rolling cigars.
The fine point in making cigars was in fabricating the wrapper around the filler in such a manner that one end (the end for the smoker’s mouth) came to a sealed point which had to be cut, or bitten off, so that the cigar would draw when lit at the other end.
Gonzales, a Spaniard I believe, had a special way of finishing up the lighting end. Where all other cigars were cut off square at this end, he made a kind of brush out of the filler extending beyond the end of the wrapper. This facilitated the lighting of the cigar but created quite a hazard when bits of burning loose ends fell on the clothes or upholstery of the unwary user. The trade name of this type of cigar was “Bushy Tail.”
Many a time when I was sent to the Atlanta Store (First National Bank corner) to get a spool of thread in a hurry I forgot my haste if I passed the cigar shop, for it was fascinating to see the skill and dexterity of the artisan who made them.
