Furthermore, it can be calculated to a certainty

that with many thousands of new stockholders exert1ng their personal influence toward the Suc- cess and welfare of the business, larger patronage and correspondingly greater earnings for the Company will be assured. It is from the increased benefits and material advantages which these changed conditions expected to bring about, that the present owners feel confident of better pro rata remuneration the stock which they retain, and in a measure justifes them in parting with any portion of their interests in an established and exceptionally profitable business
 The SIEGEL-COOPER CO. Cooperative Stores will take possession Monday July ad Iooo of the two great department stores of Siegel-Cooper Co.,, New York, and Siege1, Cooper & Co.,, Chicago, in their entirety, covering floor space of thirty acres, with their millions of dollars worth of Merchandise, Store Fixtures, Delivery Plants Consisting of many hundreds of Horses Wagons, etc Machinery, extensive Stable Properties, and all the appurtenanceS required for the complete operation of the two stores, and also its Paiatial Fireproof Store Building and Real Estate in New York City, which alone repre- sents asset of many millions of dollars, free of all encumbranceS indebtedness whatsoever that the Siegel-Cooper Go. Cooperative Stores, New York and Chicago) will start it's career without owing single dollar.
 For the good and sufficient reason of not wishing to divulge the details of our business to our competitors, we present no balance sheet for publication. We do not however, desire to ask patrons or the public to rely exclusively representations, and, therefore, the money required has been set aside and will remain on deposit with the above-named Trust Companies to absolutely secure the dividends on all the Preferred Stock to be allotted as stated.

over, we allude with pride to the fact that the Chicago establishment has since its inception paid millions of dollars in dividends to its stock holders, and that the New York establishment while only in it's fourth year, is not only doing larger business than the Chicago store, but is also on a most profitable dividend-paying basis. We can also say for the benefit of subscribers, that the net earnings of our two establishments for the past year were largely in excess of the amount required to pay the dividends on all the Preferred Stock of the new Company.

To carry out the plan of Profit-Sharing

it is proposed by the present owners, who are the owners of all the stock of the Company, to offer to the public through the undersigned, POO, 900 shares fully paid and non-assessab1e) of the per cent. cumulative Preferred Stock at par, upon which the full 6 per cent. dividend must always be paid before the Common Stock receives any dividend whatever, the Preferred Stock also having prior right to all the assets of the Company.
 In order to give double assurance to the general public, whom it is desired to interest as Stockholders Gnstead of Speculators) and who may not be fully conversant with such invest ments, the money required to pay dividends on said 200, 900 shares has been set aside and will remain deposit with the Central Trust Company of New York, and the Illinois Trust and Savings Bank of Chicago, respectively, to secure the dividends of per cent. per annum, payable per cent. semi-annually, for a period of five years, < C., until July Ist, Ioo5 on all such Preferred Stock as may be allotted in their respective territories, and each Certificate of Stock so allotted will have an endorsement by said Trust Companies, respectively, to that effect. We thereby offer, we believe, not only an absolutely safe per cent. investment, but which will without question yield consider ably more.
 Under no circumstances

 of the Preferred Stock not so allotted, nor any of the Common Stock, be sold, the present

The Kindergarten Training CIass.

Those who have observed for the past two years the work done by the members of the training class for young women, under the auspices of the Birmingham Free Kindergarten Association, will be interested to know that this institution will begin it's third session September r. Now that the training school is full-fedged chartered institution, it is indeed permanent, and all ready it has become an institution of which Birmingham is justly proud.
 The association Is to be congratulated in having again secured the services of Miss Edith Woodruff as superintendent of the Children's Department, and principal of the Jraining School Besides having had thorough education and special training in kindergarten methods. with several years of practical experience in kindergarten management, Miss Woodruff is peculiarly aCapted for this form of educational work The board of directors feel that the suc- cess of this movement from its beginning has been largely due to her faithful and efficient services. Miss Miss Woodruff is now enjoying vacation with her family

going back to the city for or not At best that meal after the usual elaborate and late sunday dinner, is not a ceremony; and ''it was really very seldom." said a clubman after you got the girl home, that she ever asked you in to share it with her, any way (having her grave suspicious, it i5 to be supposed, whether the family had any left or not); and so it has proved a most happy solution of the problem to remain out there and let Nash draw you up a little table Gust for two if you wish it so) and dispose thereon the iced tea and the salad and the sandwiches, and the cold roast mutton, etc.
 Not being a medium the steward cannot be expected to guess exactly how many persons will take into their heads to coma out to supper this evening, but he will make a manly effort to provide enough for everybody, even if ho has to feed the house boys the balance of the week upon the sur plus mutton and salad. It is probable that after the amusement committee has been fed, the rest will be taken alphabe ticallv or some such good and fair system adopted for the comfortable and fair distribution of the feast.
 No late conner will, as on last Sunday have to browze upon iced tea and a crack CT. This same clubman declares Mem bers of the club who occupy those big rock CTS out there a Sunday afternoon, and watch the traps come up the driveway and discharge their groups of pretty handsome ly gowned women, and comfortably dressed men, under the porte cochere, simply do not know what they are missing-thats all Gossiping is of course forbidden by the rules of the club, but in a genial, pleasant way about everything that has happened or is likely to happen very soon usually gets a. going over somewhere among some of the various groups occupying the big chairs on the porch-and, really, it is well worth lis-

 seventeen chairs drawn up around the sue eessor to the aforesaid leg of mutton. and last Sunday night the dispensing table looked, to quote a popular member, as if fl
 was "the carving board at a Georgia bar becue." No less than forty persons, after a cool restful afternoon on the breezy porches, remained to tea, and the man who had few words still to say to a pretty girl in one of the distant tete tete corners of the porch, and was not awakened from his sweet dream by the clash of dishes,
 soon found himself like the fellow who drove the hanson cab-not in 1t. It has long been a question with the increasingly large number who regularly now spend the long hot Sunday afternoons in the hammocks and easy chairs on the picturesque galleries of the Country Club, enjoying a very charming substitute for Tybee or the noun tains, whether Sunday supper was worth

THE QUAY CASE. !.
Penrose, BY Shrewd Tactics. Sue
ceeds In Getting tie rlatter
BEFORE Senate.

A Washington special says: 81 ..
vote of "a to %, after some exceedirg-
~ clever tactical msneuyering ~
which he was coached by Senators
Chandler and Woicott as against Sen!
.ators Aldrich and Burrows, Senator
Penrose succeeded Friday in getting
the Quay case before the senate IN 8
way that insures early action BY that
body.
For some days the efforts OF the:
anti.Quay leaders among the Repub-
licans have been toward delay. In
their desire to promote this delay they
have, very naturally, had the assist-
ance of senators with especial interest
in other legislation which they wanted
considered, and when Senator PEN
roses motion was laid before the SEN;
ate these elements were found arrayedl
against it. The test showed shat q
majority of the members Of the senate
believe that the question OF q man
claiming seat is one OF the highest
privileges and that has a right 70 have
his case considered. Z
The Quay men are claiming that the.
vote indicates the final vote on the
merits of the question itself, but this.
is not correct. Some senator's who
voted against consideration will vote
to seat Senator Quay, while others
who voted for consideration viii vote
against him.
