 The stage was decorated with palms, eyergreens and flowers, and the lodge altar, which was in the center of the stage, on which the Holy Bible had been placed, was draped with American flags, significant of the patriotism of the order. Life-size pic7 lures of the deceased members were hung around the stage, and the faces which were familiar to many among the audience re- called the memories of each of them, who had been valuable citizens as we'll faith- ful Elks. Exalted Ruler Rip F. Beasley occupied his position and presided over the session, with his fellow-officers in their respective stations.
 In addition to the ritual ceremony spe- cial programme had been arranged and was faithfully carried out. The services were both interesting and impressive. The ex- ercises were opened with an orchestral march by Grambs' orchestra, which was followed by the rendition of the "Te Deum'' by St. Mary's choir, under the direction of Professor B. Guckenberger Ritual cere- monies were then conducted by the lodge, and after the opening ode, Rabbi M New field of Temple Emanuel offered a beauti- full prayer.
 Eulogies were delivered by Colonel J. J. Altman, B. M. Allen, Rabbi M Newtield and Rev. B. D. Gray.
 Reference was feelingly made to each of the deceased members, the speakers paying high tribute to the memories of the de- ceased brothers whose lives had been an honor to themselves and to the order.
 During the services selections were ren- dered by Miss Alice Fallon in a, vocal solo, Professor John Calman, in a violin solo, and St. Mary's choir.
 The closing ceremonies were then con- ducted by the lodge, after which the doxology was sung, the audience joining in Rev. B. D. Gray pronounced the benedic- tion.

lesser ones, are either owned or controlled by descendants of Judah. A prominent manager recently made the conservative estimate that from his closest observation nearly 60 per cent. of the regular theater- goers of Chicago were Hebrews, while New York claims even larger percentage, and yet, strange to say, the number of Hebrew actors in legitimate drama are very few. Iris true there are a great many Hebrews in comedy, vaudeville and opera, but inside the sacred portals of the classic or Shake sperien drama few Hebrews are found. There is one, however who has reached almost the apex of dramatic art and who is an artist of consummate ability, and that is Lewis Morrison, gentleman who IS proud of his race, and one whose reputation and abilities endear him to not only his own people, but to all those who make his acquaintance. MT. Morrison is a gentleman of commanding presence, "a face cast in heroic mold" and general contour that is Chesterfieldan. He carries his 53 sum- mers with the same bearing that he did when, as captain in the Thirteenth Con- necticut during the civil war, he carried victory with the famous forlorn hope at Port Hudson. Mir Morrison is this season touring the country for the last time as ''Mephisto' in his magnificent presentation of Faust" and will be seen here.
 Mir Morrison's farewell appearance here will be Thursday night, December s.

Horse Killed

Saturday night the two horses attached to one of J. Blach & Sons delivery wagons, ran away on the Southside. They came down Twentieth street toward the depot at a braelneck speed. Fortunately the streets were almost clear of vehicles, so the horses had full possession of the street. Just be- fore arriving at the railroads, the team ran into the sidewalk and one of the horses hitting against telephone post, broke it's neck. The runaway created a great deal of excitement at the time.

 'T am sorry to hear of the death at Union Springs yesterday, of the Rev. Dr. Allen s. Andrews" said an old friend of that noted preacher and educator. "Dr. Andrews was one of the strongest men in the Alabama conference of the Methodist church, and his death is distinct loss to the church at large. He has been so vigorous and so full of work for many years that most peo-
 pie will be surprised to know that he was "A years of age. But he never grew old in

A tremendous new enterprise has been started in Birmingham without any of that noise and chatter which usually accompan- ies a new concern in this district.
 For the past several days a large force of workmen have been erecting derrick at Gate City, adjoining the large one of the present flowing artesian wells. Yester- day the boring of a new well, 10 inches ill diameter, was commenced. It is proposed to go down 1000 feet. if necessary. The o5- ject of the work seems to be the construc- ton of new water works system and water supply for the city of Birmingham and the Birmingham district. It is also said to be the object of the men behind the enterprise to erect two 400-ton iron furnaces and steel plant and other industries near Gate City, at the point where the Southern railway crosses Red mountain just a few hundred yards from the present artesian wells
