What brings people back to the Asto-
ria Wood Yard after they have sounded
the possibilities everywhere else? May
be It's one thing, and May be It's another.
But the fact remalns-back they come.
And of course the Astoria Wood Yard Is
proud OF II.

A TWISTER.

A twister in twisting
May twist him a twist,
For in twisting a twist
Three twists make a twist;
But II one of the twists
Untwists from the twist,
The twist untwisting
Untwlsts the twist.
That Is, when it's twisted with any
other twine than ArARSHALL'S.

SAFE BLOWERS
Break Into W. S. Browns Store at 2015 Sec. ond Avenue and Steal $l13 Cash,
 But Leave Diamonds.

MT. w. s. Browns safe was footed early yesterday morning at No. 2015 Sec ond avenue. The work was evidently that of professional burglars, and it is also evident that they were interrupted in the act, as they left a gold bracelet and a diamond ring in the safe. They took away with them all the cash that the safe contained, about $113.
 The burglars gained entrance to the store through a rear window of No. 2013. The safe is in the rear of No. 2015. They broke off the combination knob and opened the outer doors. The lock on the inner door was worked by drilling through the keyhole. The same instru- ment opened the iron cash vault which contained the money.
 MT. J. A. Downey, MT. Browns book keeper, returned from Montgomery on the midnight train, and some time after wards went to the store to attend to some business. His attention was att tracted by a slight noise in the rear, and when he ran towards the safe he heard some one running away. Word was sent to police headquarters, and officers began working on the case at once, but no arrests have been made yet.

MEETING POSTPONED.
Special Nesting of the Council Called for Last Night to Consider the Behrens Park
 Car Line Postponed.

Owing to the fact that quorum was not present last night, the special meeting of the city council was postponed until Monday evening at 7:30 o'clock. The bus mess that will be brought before the board is the consideration of the Behren's Park street car line. In this regard it will be remembered that citizens living along the line have heretofore requested the board to enforce the operation of the road.
 The Birmingham Railway and Electric company, who own the charter for the street car line, say the road with it's present equipment does not pay opera ting expenses. It was also suggested by President Jemison that the company would tender the free use of the road to any one desiring to operate it in its pres ent condition, and in the event that ar rangements of that kind could not be made MT. Jemison intimated that 1t was the intention of the company to equip the line with electricity at an early date.

Admirably Render an Excellent Programme at
 Seals Hall. -el One of the best concerts heard in Bir- mingham in a long time was that in. Seals hall last night by the Schubert Concert company. ~ They were greeted by small house, but the smallness in numbers was made up in enthusiasm, each number on the.programme elcitine. the heartiest applause and the artistS' rendering them being encored in some instances two>and three times.
 Miss Hughes. the harpist was enthu- siastically. eneored after each number and her appearance on the stage each time was the signal for hearty applause. She has magnificent control of the harp which she plays most admirably.
 The quartette,s composed of Messrs Samuel T. Battle.. first tenor; Frank T. Johnson, second tenor;. George R. Wade, baritone, and Frank c. Hollister, basso rendered several beautiful selections They all have splendid voices, under good control and sang most delightfully."-
 It is safe to say that should this excel lent company give another concert here they would draw a much larger audience.

ment at Seals Bros Hall December 10.
 The Birmingham Music clubs third en- tertainment will be given at Seals Bros hall Tuesday evening, December 10. Mime. Cecilia Eppinghousen Bailey's grand con- cert company will be the attraction. The following is from the Press-Transcript, Lexington, Ky:
 Mime. Cecilia Eppinghousen Bailey cap tivated her audience, swiftly and com pletely. She is one of the rare number of women who have been blessed by par tial fate with beauty, grace, charm, intel lect and voice. Not only is her voice one of peculiar quality, possessing beauty and an eXquisitely sympathetic power, but also her dramatic talent is remarka- ble; it is evidently innate, and has been brought by study and training to a re- sistless point of excellence.
 The first effect of her appearance upon an audience must always be one of great feminine beauty.
 Each number she sang was greeted at it's close with storm of applause that called the fair singer back without time for rest between
 The Angels Serenade" was very love ly with both piano and violincello accom- paniment. The former was beautifully played by Miss Dolly Williams.
 As during the exposition, Mime. Bailey charmed and delighted her audience with loveliness of face and voice, and charm and grace of manner.
 As Marguerite she captured all hearts, as her talent was best and most fully manifested in the beautiful and graceful jewel song from Faust" She is the most delightful attraction that has ever yet appeared on our Chautauqua pro- gramme.
 The Chicago 400 says: Miss Bertha Ep- pinghousen. who made pronounced hit as PolesiSa in "A Russian Honeymoon" is talented and beautiful. Neither Lily Langtry nor Mrs. James Brown Potter ever equaled her ravishing beauty and stage chic in their halcyon days.

PURSE GRABBERS.
They Attacked Lady Wednesday Night, But
 Bravery Was Too Much for Them

A sneak thief grabbed a purse from Mrs. Lineker's hand Wednesday evening, about o'clock. on Sixth avenue and Nineteenth street. The lady was going home after her days work at Loveman, Joseph & Loeb's, where she is employed as head dressmaker. Just as she was passing a negro on Sixth avenue the rascal snatched the purse and ran away. \ short time afterwards Mrs. Lineker re- turned the same way and saw three negroes standing near the corner. She ,heard one of the negroes ask of the other two who had taken it. Mrs. Lineker stopped and started to avoid the negroes by crossing the street. They saw her movement and tried to intercept her, but she faced them boldly and ordered them off which they made haste to do as fast as their legs could carry them.

Night for the Benefit of Camp hardee.
 The Birmingham Musicians union gave a concert last night at the opera house for the benefit of Camp Hardee, Confederate Veterans. The attraction deserved a much larger audience than those who were actually present, for be- sides the splendid instrumental music the programme offered singing, dancing and recitations, each of which were praiseworthy features in themselves.
 The programme in full was as follows, though owing to the illness of MT. Schil- finger the Schillinger quartette selection was omitted: e. Grand march, Salute to Birmingham, D; composed by Prof. Henri Weber,
