BOTH SIDES ARE
 CLAIMING VICTORY
Pastors and Liquor Men on the
 Dispensary Bill.
SALOON MEN WILL NOT QUIT
Rabbi Newfield Says That Prohibition is Not Temperance Action on the Bill is Expected by Preach
 CTS Saturday Morning.

There seems to be a misunderstanding in the city among those interested in the dispensary bill. The ministers are claim ing victory over the action of the house in placing the bill on the calendar, while the saloon men are likewise satisfied, say ing that since Jefferson is out their purpose has been accomplished On this point the difficulty hinges.
 The ministers are of the opinion that the bill as reported to the house is in identically the same form as when it left the senate. The liquor dealers, on the contrary, are claiming that Jefferson county Is excluded from the provisions of the bill as it now stands by the amendments which were tackled on by the committee in making its report.
 They Are Highly Pleased
 One minister said last night: "We are highly pleased with the present status of the bill, and hope to have it become law within the next week or ten days. We re- ceived news today that a final vote would be taken at 1015 next Saturday morning. Our committee is still at work, and we hope to receive a large majority of the votes cast"
 But what about the amendments which were tackled to the bill by the committee, leaving out Jefferson county?" "I didn't know that such was the case; besides I do not think that the committee formation is that the bill was put on the house calendar just as 1t came from the senate.'
 Amendments were added to the bill how ever, which exclude Jefferson and Tusca- loosa counties from the operations of the law. On these amendments the saloon men think they will win, as the amendments will have to be acted on before the main meas ure is taken up.
 Will Not Quit the Field
 One of them was seen yesterday after noon, and on being asked what action the saloon men of Birmingham would take since Jefferson county is out, he said: "oh, no; we will not quit the field on that ac- count, as I think we ought to help the other fellows who are still in danger"
 Another liquor dealer was spoken to, but seemed to have different view of the case, and expressed an opinion that "the Lord would have to look out for those people. When we were in trouble they did not come to our aid, and I, for one do not feel dis posed to help them. Mobile, for instance was dead against us."
 The saloon men are somewhat backward about discussing the matter, and say it will be left entirely with the committee at Montgomery, whose plans will not be made public.
 While discussion of the matter in general way was progressing yesterday af- ternoon Rabbi Newfed of the Jewish church said that he did not approve of the law, and that the strict prohibitionists should not be termed temperance men, as that was not the meaning of the word.
 Temperance means not excessive, said MT. Newfeld, land an extremist on either side is not a temperate man."
 Both sides are parleying for points, and a meeting of the saloon men was held in the city yesterday afternoon. but what they did could not be ascertained.

Mrs. Margaret Dsiand expressed In her
lecture yesterday Afternoon on "The
Change In the Feminine Ideal"
Mira Dsland was gracefully introduced
to the audience by Mrs. John y. Thcmp-
son, and In the address which followed.
the speaker thoroughly charmed and de-
Lighted her hearers.
Mrs. Dsland said that abe intended

there was both . threat and hope. q
danger and n privilege. She dwelt upon
the rsstlessasss and eargerness CT the
present generation in comparison to that
OF our mothers, but did not forget 10
msution that sometimes restlessnesa may
mean growth.
The change In ideal 10 shown principll-
ly. she thought, In the different senss OF
individualism, and Of social respousibiii-
ty, manifested between the women OF to-
dny and OF yesterday. These Of yesu rday
might almost have tesn said to be sell

land ielt that much OF the individuAlism

that the supreme test Of . persons action

The print Of sel1shness was also

LIGHTING MATTERS.
what the Committee Proposes To
Do.

The committee on lights held brief
meeting yesterday afternoon to consider
the matter Of location Of lights, as
frequent complaints are being reosived
by the committee that their instructions
are not carried out. The committee se-
lected one Of Its members to make note
of all lights that are put up not In &C
cordance with their wishes. The commit
tee will be fair with the light company.
and give them d1e notice II anything Is
done CONTRARY to their orders. Mistakes
In location are liabls to be made by some
of. the work men, the company not being
aware of the fact. To save the company
the expense OF putting In extra poles
where swinging lights now prevail, long
arms may be used. II the Portland Elec'
trio Light company, SO the committee says
will cnnsult them as to the length. of
arms desired In certain locations. they
would consider 1t favor, as 1t might
save trou bic In the future. The company
say that the brackets which they are now
putting up are only temporary, aud later
on. as soon as they can OBTAIN the long
arms which ware ordered by the commit
tse will be substituted for the brackets.
The committee intends to place Wells
bach burners In the lamp pests about the
Soldiers Monument In order to save
money.
1t developed yesterday that the light
fixtures in City hall are owned by the
Consolidated company and that thess
will be removed by the owners when IT.
con tract with the oity expires. 1t WAS q
matter of considerable surprise to some Of
the city oil Gals when thsy learned that
the city did net own the light fixtures In
It's buildings.
