A Resolution That Lost Out

The following resolution, which was in- troduced by special request, created much amusement, but failed of adoption for want of a second:
 Whereas, A prominent member of the club has named his girl Olympia Manila, thus displaying his patriotism and good Judgment,
 Resolved, That the club appreciate his patriotic impulses and calls the attention of other married members to the names of such heroes as Hobson, Sampson, Wheeler. etc.
 A committee from the Colored Fair asso- ciation were granted an audience and through it's chairman asked the club for it's moral support and such financial aid as it saw proper to bestow up on the undertak- ing.
 The plan of the proposed fair was fully explained and on motion of W. H. Kettlg the movement was indorsed and the ques- ton of financial aid was referred to the re- tail trades committee to investigate and with power to act.
 The meeting then adjourned
 Secretary Boles, whose term expired on June 30, will continue in office until the return of Dr. W. B. Phillips, who has been elected as his successor.

has been long time coming, but greater Birmingham is here at last" Alderman Parker Tt is the one thing toward which we have been looking forward all these years" said Alderman Parker. There is a great deal of money being turned loose by the government. I think era of prosperity is coming. When the capitalists with money to invest see that we have every thing here that can be desired by the manufacturer they certain to bring smaller industries here and Birmingham s future is assured.''
 Father O'Reilly
 "The new steel mill means many blessings to us," said Father OReilly. Tt means a large increase of population, and the small CT industries it will draw will give em- pleyment to all. It will draw skilled labor CTS from the north and other portions of the country, who are a very desirable class of citizens, and l think that the capacity of the manufacturing concerns which are al- ready here will be increased two-fold."
 Postmaster Hughes
 'It is simply magnificent" said Postmas- ter Hughes. Tt puts new life in Bir- mingham and gives decided impetus to all our industries.
 Zac F. Smith
 1T wish I could find words to tell you what I do think of the steel niill,'' said Zac c. Smith, but I am afraid my express sions will be only commonplace. There is nothing either in manufacturing line or otherwise that could possibly be of the ben fit to every man, woman and child in the district as the big steel mill, on which work is to be begun next week"

"rrhe greatest advantage that l see in the new steel mill" said M. V. Joseph, lis the stability and steady growth that 1t will give to the Birmingham district. As it is now, the iron industries of the district fluc- tuate and vary according as there is greater or less demand for iron, and at times the furnaces have to shut down alto gether. But with the number >of small n- dustries that are sure to follow the new plant Birmingham will be fixed on a basis as permanent as are it's mineral deposits"

THE GREAT NEW STEEL PLANT Causes Rejoicing Among all the
 Business Men. ADVAN FACE TO BIRMINGHAM Interviews With Many Merchants on What the New Mammoth Steel Plant Means 10
 This Distrct-The Great
 CT Birmingham.

The positive announcement from Mr. James Bowron, vice president of the Ten nessee Coal Iron and Railroad company that work would begin on the great new steel plant next week created much enthu- ham yesterday
 It means several hundred new small manufoctories for Birmingham; it means many manufactures employing from five to fifty workmen on good salaries; it means big pay rolls, more people and more money to be spent with the merchants; it means that Birmingham will be made the heroic city of the south.
 Age-Herald reporters talked with several of the most prominent of Birmngham's business men yesterday.
 President Steiner
 q have information from my brother in New York" said B. Steiner, of the Com- mercial club, that the steel mill is a cer- tainty. The building and completion of this plant I consider of the greatest bene- fit to Birmingham; probably greater than anything ever undertaken here. Not so much the steel mill alone, the other industries that will follow it, and which use steel for their raw material
 Already we can see great benefits from the little steel mill of the Birmingham Rolling Mill company; how much greater will the benefits be when manufacturers throughout the country learn that they can get here all the steel that they may need
 q feel confident that the steel mill and the other industries following 1t win in- crease our population not less than 2ooo) within the next five years"

WILL MINTIRE DRAW PAYl
The Man Who Was Appointed Con-
trary to the Charter Provision.

The pay roll of the police department
for August was forwarded to the
comptrolIer's office yesterday. Among
the names on the roll is that of M. l..
McIntire, who for tWenty-siX days as
license inspector is to be paid $16.61.
There was considerable talk al the
time Mayor Kiefer appointed McIntire
that the appointment was not legal,
owing to the appointee being fifty years
of age, while the law prohibits the ap-
pOintment OF policemen who are over
thirty-five years Of age.
The assembly, which has the con-
firmation Of the appointments OF the
mayor, caucused on the point as to the
legality of McInure's appointment, and
decided that as the mayor had the
application of McIntire before him and
knew as to the age Of the inspector,
1t was a question for the mayor to de-
eide and not for them. The appoint
ment was accordingly confirmed.
After the confirmation it was an
nounced that proceedings would be
commenced to prevent McIntire from
drawing and the comptroller from
auditing his pay for August. Comp
troller McCardy, asked about the mat
ter yesterday afternoon. said he had
received no notification from any
source as to the illegality of McIn-
tires appointment, neither had any no
tice not to pay the inspector been re-
ceiVed by him.

AT THE THEATERS.

The Wilbur Opera company will present
William Vincent Wallace's brilliant opera,
Mariana" at the Metropolitan opera house
tonight and the remainder of the week, in
Guiding Saturday matinee. This is an old
English opera. Don Caesar de Bazan, the
central figure of the opera, is one of the
most romantic characters of the lyric stage,
and is, in temperament, the nearest approach
the musical world has given to Shakes
peare's beloved Mercutio, and his song Let
Me Like Soldier FALL Is one that will
live while the English language Is spoken.
In addition to the regular performance nu-
merous specialties will be introduced, and
the entertainment as a whole will be en-
joyed and appreciated by all classes of
theater-goers.
An excellent quality of farce-comedy Is
being given at the Grand this week. Muir
rcy and Mack, assisted by some clever come
dams and a number of decidedly pretty girls,
furnish no end of fun through the medium
