MEMBERS OF SIGMA
 NU FRATERNITY
Met at the Morris Hotel and Organized a Local
 Alumni Chapter.

Over thrty-five members of the Sigma Nu Fraternity. one of the most popular college Greek letter societies of the south ern, central and western states, met yes- terday in the parlors of the Hotel Morris for the purpose of organizing a Birming- ham Alumni association of the fraternity Alumni and students from number of col leges were present, prominent among them being z. T. Rudolph, J. H. Montgomery, l.. L. Yam, Dr. M. N. Due, w. c. Williams and others.
 The following officers were elected: War ren Lindsay, Howard college, 1897, presi- dent; c. R. Bell, Howard college, secretary and treasurer; w. H. Ferguson, University of Alabama, 1886. corresponding secretary The officers selected were all young men, who have recently left college, the object being to make the association one that was more in touch with college work than is usually the case with alumni associations
 A committee was appointed to draw up @ constitution and report to the next meeting on September 24 One of the objects of the association is to assist the various college chapters in securing desirable men at the opening of the college year and to this end committee was appointed to look out for new men.
 Warren Lindsay and w. H. Ferguson were appointed delegates to the convention of southern chapters to be held in Atlanta July 21 and 22 at the Kimball house.
 The chapter desires to enroll the names of all the "Sigs'' in Jefferson county.
 The plan suggested is for each brother to send his name and address to c. R. Bell, secretary, who during the summer will be in Annston, Ala.
 Many speeches of loyalty to the fraternity were made and "reminiscences of old college days were given. z. T. Rudolph was ap- pointed the chairman of committee to ar range banquet in the fall.

HOT WORK FOR
 THE ALDERMEN
But They Couldn't Get Together to Do ItLast Evening"
 No Quorum.

A meeting of the board of aldermen was slated for last evening" but there was none and the several great questions to be dis cussed and decided still hang high in the air.
 There was not an aldermanic quorum present. Each member expected the others to be present, and there you have it.
 Those who did brave the heat of the chamber of horros were such thin and wiry members as Mayor Evans, Aldermen Lynagh, Wheeler, Ashford, Kerr, Meighan, Moore, Hamilton and McKnight-not suf- ficient. So water, gas, street railroads and telephones are yet suspended on the limb of doubt.
 Had the council met it might have gone on the war path. The new proposed water rates were pending. The council wants good water-as clear as a crystal-and cheap water. The Water company says it will do its best, but must make a living interest on its bonds and stock.
 Then the street railway muddle is up. That's in a bad tangle. The companies are fighting one another and the city is after both of them for taking all the streets.
 The old dollar gas question is yet pend- ing The board of aldermen has passed an ordinance prohibiting gas companies from charging more than SIPS per thousand feet for gas. Yet the old gas company defles the board and sails merrily along, regard less of the fact that it has no city license, charging $1.65 per thousand. The board wants to stop this and City Attorney Lowe is to render a report advising what can be done to stop ths piracy upon the citizens. The gas company people seem to think the aldermen can do nothing. But that remains to be seen.
 The long distance telephone people want to get into the city and the aldermen are being asked for permission.
 So the board has plenty to do. It has lot work before it well as hot weather in which to do it.

COUNTY EXECUTIVE
 COMMITTEE
Of Democratic Party to Meet in Birmingham Next
 Saturday.

The following call was issued yesterday by Chairman Robert J. Lowe and Secretary Nathan L. Miller, of the democratic county executive committees:
 'The county executive committee of the democratic and conservative party of Jefferson county is hereby called to meet in the circuit court room in Bir- mingham, Ala, on Saturday, June Il, 1898. full attendance is desired, as business of importance is to come up before the committee"
 As has been stated in The Ags-Herald among other things to come up before the committee will be the election of cam paign committee of the county and its chairman. Henry B. Gray will, in al probability, be selected for this office. Campaign headquarters are also to be Hj- tablished.
 Secretary Miller, of the state executive committee, again requests that all demo- cratic daiy and weekly news a CTS be sent to the headquarters. They will be ap- preciated and will assist greatly in the campaign.

SWIMMING CLASS
Being Organized By the Birmingham Athet-
 ic CIub--Ladies To1ay.

Last night the Birmingham Athletic club was given a complimentary swim by the managers of the Natatorium company. A large number of the members of the club were present and they took their first les sons in the exciting game of water polo. It is a very exhausting game, and requires a great deal of practice to become proflc- tent in it. The game is on the same prin- ciples as football, except that 1t is played in the water, and the ball is carried along with the hands instead of the feet. As soon as the game is learned. teams will be formed, and a championship game played at least once a week.
 This morning between the hours of 10 and 1, Prof. c. Harry Miles, instructor of the club will be at the Natatorium for the purpose of receiving the names os mem bers and organizing the ladies' swmming class. Mrs. J. D. Kirkpatrick, Mrs. Da1 Id Roberts and Mrs. Robert Jemison are among the patronesses of the class, and from the interest that has been manifested the ladies class is an assured success.

AROUND THE TOWN.
Registration in Birmingham

The registration books of beats 21 and 37, which closed at midnight last Saturday, did not show up well as was expected. Only 2,002 voters registered at Adams drug store and only 1,4S0 at the court house, total of 3,432. But the gratifying part of it is that only about 10 per cent of the whole are negroes, and the politicians say that the democratic majority will be quite as large if not larger than 1t would have been if 6,000 had registered.
