Fighting is Expected Soon Between
Government Forces and Rebels.

Managua, Nicaragua, via Galveston, Tex,
February 14.-In spite of numerous obsta-
cles, chief among them being the want of
telgraphic communication and roads ex-
cept mule paths between Managua and
Bluefields, President Zelaya is actively or
ganizlng to suppress the revolution that has
broken out in the Atlantic coast provinces.
Fighting between the government forces
and the rebels under ]. p. Reyes, former
governor general of the Atlantic coast d.
vision and self-styled general-n-chief of
Nicaragua, probably will begin in the trop-
ical forests between the Cordilleras and
Bluefields.
The headquarters of the government
troops is at Acopaya, well chosen STRAIT
egic point near branch of the river Sego-
via, beyond the dividej while the revolu-
tlonists are reported encamped near Chile.

cial to the News says:
Reports received here tonight are that the
miners at Hartshorn, Wilburt Anderson
and other points on the Choctaw, Oklahoma
and Gulf, in the Indian Territory, are out,
and that not a pound of coal is being taken
out of those mines.
1t is from mines at these points that a
large portion of the Texas supply of coal
is obtained, and the coal famine in the
state is liable to become serious.

agement of the Rev. Robert G. Pike, has

is used in paying for the rent of the room.
Mr.. Pike is busy all day looking after the
poor and at night he breaches to them.
The meetings are usually well attended.
The work of the Mercy Home is on a
somewhat different basis. All of their time

about twenty-eight children under her
charge

a telephone message was sent to The
Age-Herald office last night of a family
near the Mercy Home who were in need of
food and fuel An aged woman and her
daughter live there alone and have needed
attention for some time. In answer to the
call money was sent and they will be pro-
vided for today.
From the bright. grateful faces of those
who were helped yesterday it is evident
that charity is greater than either faith or
hope and much of this Cody spirit abdeth
among the people of Birmingham.

Father Lay n Corpse

One family was found on south Tween
tieth street entirely destitute of clothes and
food, and a sorrowful picture was pre-
sented to the Christian worker who called.
On the bed lay the corpse of the husband
and father who had been their only sup
port until he had fallen a victim to the
ravages of disease. He died early yester-
day morning and the family was too poor
to give him a Christian burial Contribu-
tions were quickly raised and everything
possible was done to brighten the home as
well as the sad hearts of these poor people.
The two missions and the Mercy Home
are also earnestly in the work. but strive
as they will some are still left uncared
for. The Birmingham mission, which is
under the direction of the Church of the
Seven Day Adventists, has over a dozen
improvised beds which are occupied nightly
by the homeless and those who are unable
to get a bed are given a quilt and allowed
to lie the floor by the stove, which is
kept heated all night. Food is also fur
nished for the small sum of cents. When
the uHfortunates are unable to pay, it is
freely given them.

The debate on the points Of order lasted
two hours today and was not concluded.
1t seems to be aaforegone conclusion that
the chairman OF the committee of the
whole, Mr.. Hopkins, of Illinois, will sus-
tain the points of order, so that the real
test will come upon the question of over
ruling the chair Should the chair be over
ruled there is no doubt that the amendment
will command majority of the votes.
About twenty pages OF the sundry civil bill
were disposed of today. No amendments
were adopted.

THE HOUSE

washington, February 14.-The Nicarag-
uan canal bill was offered in the house to-
day as an amendment to the sundry civil
Dill by Mr.. Hepburn. chairman, who re-
ported it, and the leaders on the respective
sides are engaged In desperate Struggle
which involves the fate of the measure at
this session of congress. Hra
After Mr.. Cannon, chairman of the appro-
priations committee, served notice last
week that there was no time for the con-
sideration of the canal bill at this session,
the supporters of the measure determined
to force 1t onto the sundry civil bin as
rider, II possible, As soon as 1t was offered
this afternoon Mr.. Cannon made four points
OF order against it, and one Of the most in
teresting parliamentary contests of the ses-
sion was on.
As rule the appeals of the house leaders
are able to hold the members In line, but
strong arguments are adduced in support
of the pertinency of the amendment, and
besides the bill has strong friends on both
sides of the chamber, who are seemingly
ready to adopt any expedient TO provide for
the conStruc ton of the canal.

MUCH SUFFERING RELIEVED

Though delirious with balls, masks and
other mighty revelrfes during the Mardi
Gras festivities, Birmingham has not for
gotten her poor and the great spirit of
charity has pervaded the homes of her
people.
Many generous citizens answered The
Age-Herald's plea for the poor and much
suffering has been relieved. Those who
aided in the work are as follows:
Lucien Brown, onehalf ton of coai cash,
rs cents; Judge j. H. Benners. 81; cash, 81;
George G. Adams, clothing; cash, IS; cash,

This relief fund was distributed as fast
as the contributions came in and many
poor people were able to enjoy the cherry
warmth of bright fire last night for the
first time since the severe weather came
upon them. All the charitable organiza-
tons have gone to work with vim and
whenever a suffering family is found aid
is quickly sent. Notwithstanding the cold
atmosphere and the disagreeable slush of
the streets, the good women of the United
Charities went early to work and from
morning until night administered to the
wants of the poor.
