PEACE AMONG MINERS
hings Now in Excellent Condition at
 Brookside

Chief Mine Inspector J. DeB. Hooper has returned from the Brookwood mines, where he made an investigation of the threatened labor troubles at that place.
 It seems that threats of violence had been reported, and there was some local uneas- iness, which the authorities thought should be investigated.
 'As stated in my report, the force at work is about two-thirds full,' said Mr. Hooper "The day I got there the output was about 600 tons, and the number em- ployed is slowly increasing. The mines are operating as usual, and the men seemed to be satisfied with the way things are go- ing It appeared to me that the strike Is a thing of the past.
 ''I do not know what the final settlement .was with the men who went back to work in regard to wages. l saw the daily tally sheet for Wednesday. The sheet showed that, taking all the men at work gettlhg out coal, miners and miners laborers, the average pay of each was $2.43. One miner, with his son to help him, earned SS.2O. One working by himself earned $5.15. Many or them are making from 8 to $5 per day now and I think the miners at Brookwood are doing about as well as others in the district. I suppose we have heard the last of the trouble there and this puts every mine in the district at peace and enjoying an all-around prosperity that we have not seen in a good many years One thing l noticed at Brookwood, and that was the excellent surroundings and top equipments. The drinking water is pure-a rare thing and an ample supply Is brought in by the company's own water works from a stream a mile and a half away. The miners houses are unusually good, being in fine repair and all ceiled
 'There are nice school buildings and first-cass teachers for both whites and blacks. The company has public library. and is building a modern hospital at cost of $4,OOO for the cure of its employees. This is the gift of Mr. Einstein, who was presi- dent of the Standard Coal company, and will be maintained and kept up by the new company. Brookwood is the best fixed min ing camp I know of.

The Charms of One of
 Birmingham's Musical Favorites

The following is from a Texarkana ex- change:
 "One of the most accomplished and bril- liant women of the nation is Mrs. Ray Sinnige, of Birmingham, Ala, who is now in Texarkana, visiting her old home. Added to mind of unusual depth and culture, she possesses a voice wondrous in fexibili- ty, marvellous in purity, and thrilling in power. She was educated mechanically and musically in New York city, where she won a national conservatory scholar ship over most formidable competition She refused the perquisites of the scholar ship just she has refused many tempting offers to star in grand opera on the metro- politan stage With admirable resolution sine has rejected the g1ittering honors that await a world-famed cantatrice and is con- tented to devote her remarkable gifts to the entertainment of her home and friends She sings Tostis Goodbye in a manner that would disarm and charm even Charles Frederic Nrdinger the severest critic of the time. Hearing her translation into mystic song of the memorable prayer in Der Freischutz' one would imagine that divinity would grant any request that might be borne on the wings of such ire sistihle melody. She has taken with pro- nounced success the principal parts in almost all the grand operas being able to play from memory her own accompani- ment through entire scenes"

Mrs. French Receives informally
 In Honor of Miss crozler


 Mrs. L. Crozier-French received informal ly at the Woman's club yesterday after noon from to o'clock.
 The delightful occasion brought together a number of the prominent club women of the city, who had the pleasure of meeting Miss l.. Graham-Crozier, of Cincinnati, who was the guest of honor. Miss Cro- zier is one of the most distinguished of southern women in the lecture field and in progressive club work She is also woman of the most charming social quali- ties and adaptability, consequently she made it possible between greetings and good-byes to speak for a few moments up- on some interesting questions of the day, which, by the way, were limited to the "woman question:"
 She was especially enthusiastic, however, over the proposed woman's building, and urged the women present to bend every energy for the completion of a work which has already met with such public spirited cooperation. Miss Crozier dwelt upon the need of a womans building and emphasized the financial benefit to be derived.
 A city, she said, could not have a bettec advertisement than a woman's building,
  financial condition.
 The woman's building, she continued, should be made a financial success. There should be apartments which would De rented for public and private social func- tions, and the building should be so ad- mirable in every way that the public would patronize it, not because it was a woman's building, but because it offered the best advantages. Miss Crozer spoke of the de- velopment of eluo work, not only in the south, but of the east and west She dwelt with particular emphasis upon the value of Women's congresses which have been held throughout the country, and especially of the congress which is to be held in Bir- mngham in November.
 Miss Crozier spoke of the work of the great universities in the matter of co-edu- cation, and also touched upon the kinder garten systems and the need of endowed training schools
 Indeed, the entire afternoon was a bril- liant discussion of the most interesting topics, and the women present were thor oughly charmed with the mental powers and versatility of this gifted woman.
 Miss Crozier will leave today for Atlanta, where she will be the guest of Mrs. J. K. Ottley. She will return to Cincinnati early in October, where she will begin her work for the winter. She has studio there, and her principal lectures which she will deliver this season before the economic clubs in Cincinnati. will be along the lines of twentieth century civilization. She will also speak upon two special subjects-"The Twentieth Century Statesman, Mirabeau," and Hardy's "Tess of the D'Urbervilles," from the biological point of view.
 Miss Crozer speaks along socio-political lines, and her lectures, which will touch upon the development of the political and social conditions for the next decade, will be her most important subjects the com ing season.
 Miss Crozier extended an extremely cor dial invitation to the Woman's club to send a fraternal delegate to the meeting of the Ohio State Federation al Cincinnati in October.
