Many shooters gathered at the grounds of the Country Club to practice for the opening shooting tournament to be given by the Peters Cartridge Company of Gin cinnati, O., managed by John Maekay and given under the auspices of the Birming- ham Gun Club.

Avery, Atlanta, Ga; Maurice Kaufman, New Orleans; H. B. Semcke and pr. F. c. Wilson, Savannah, Ga.
 The latter gentleman is the champion long distance rifleman of the United States, who bids fair to become as expert with the scatter gun as he is with the rifle. The doctor uses in his rifle shooting a Ballard 3G-inch barrel 45-caliber on a Marlin action and Kings semi-smokeless powder.
 Many other shooters arrived in the even ing, among them genial Kid Etheridge of Macon and B. Popham of Memphis.

BEAUTIFUL SERVICES
At the Woodlawn Methodist Episcopal
 Church

There were beautiful services at Wood lawn M. E. church, south, on Sunday The first Sunday of each month is set apart in all city churches, or in other words, all station churches, as communion day, and last Sunday Rev. H. G. Davis, D. D., the eloquent and gifted pastor of Woodlawn M. D. church preached an appropriate ser- mon in the morning, from the text: "Be- hold the lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world;" holding up Him of whom these words were written as the word s creator, as mans redeemer, and mans for giver. This he did in his usual earnest and logical style. After the sermon the sacra ment was administered to a large number of communicants by the pastor, assisted by Rev. E. A. Wright of the Cumberland Presbyterian church of Birmingham. At night he preached from the entire second Psalm, taking this text as his basis of de- fense of the different branches of the grand Protestant faith in their mission work in the Chinese empire, saying that Gods hand could be seen in the eventful movement now being made by the com bined Christian word-the final destruction of Confucianism, Mohamerinism and Bud dahism, and all false superstitious relig- ions now cursing that great heather em- pire. He took a practical Christian view of the present complex question.
 God moves in a mysterious way
 His wonders to perform
 The congregation was large at both morning and night services, made up of many of the intelligent and elite citizens of that refined suburban town. The music, in strumental and vocal made by the splendid choir of this church, was grand, inspiring, beautiful and appropriate; uplifting to the souls of all those whose souls are moved Inv a strains of sweet sounds Into a higher and holier spiritual atmosphere.
 In addition to his onerous duties as pas- tof of this large church, Dr. Davis Is now doing all in his power to further the in- terest of the long established college for girls at Athens, Ala, of which he has re- gently been elected president; and he is bound to succeed, as he knows no such word as fail.

FIVE KILLED AND
 OTHERS INJURED
Disastrous Collision of Passenger and Freight Trains Near
 Pine BIuff Ark.

Pine Bluff, Ark, August GA disastrous collision occurred on the St Louis-South- western Cotton BelD Railroad at Aurich, forty miles north of here, today, in which five men were killed and two seriously in- jured. The dead:
 c. A. GARREY, brakeman, Jonesboro, Ark
 FRANK SAMPLE, conductor, Pine Bluff.
 BRAKEMAN LUTHER. Thayer, Mo.
 UNKNOWN BRAKEMAN, Thayer Mo.
 UNKNOWN TELEGRAPH OPERATOR.
 The injured:
 James T. Frazier, engineer, fractured arm and badly bruised
 5. Ellis, fireman, seriously bruised.
 Aurich is small station, and fast freight No 15 took the siding so as to allow the southbound passenger train, Mo- 3, to pass. By some means the switch failed to work and the passenger train crushed into the caboose of the freight train at regular speed. Before the occupants of the ca boose could jump they were killed or in- jured. Conductor Sample lived three hours The passenger engine and baggage car were turned completely over and are com- plete wrecks. Four freight cars were de- molished.

BIG SENSATION
 IS IN THE AIR
City Council Called to Investigate
 Certain City Officials.
CHARGES MAY BE BRlUGHT I
Committee May Report on Bond Question-Some Surprises in
 Store-Meets Tonight

Mayor Drennen has called meeting of the City Council for tonight, and it is probable that some sensational develop ments will take place. Rumors of a sensa- tional character have been in the air for some days regarding certain city officials, and it Is stated that an investigation will be begun at the meeting tonight.
 The nature of the charges or against whom they will be directed could not be obtained from the Mayor or Councilmen, but it is intimated that a small sized bomb shell will be exploded, which will cause sur prise among the citizens generally. The matter will probably come up in executive session.
 It Is also probable that the committee appointed some time ago to negotiate the sale of $269,000 of city bonds will report at this meeting. The committee has not yet formulated it's report, but will likely meet today for the purpose of completing it. It will be recalled that the Council adjourned last Wednesday night subject to call of the Mayor.
 Other matters of minor importance may come before the meeting, but the better part of the session will probably be devoted to the investigation.

H. M. s. PINAFORE AT
 LAKEVIEW LAST NIGHT
Elite Opera Company Begins Its Sixth Week of Summer Opera With a Success
 fui Performance.

The Elite Opera Company opened its sixth week at Lakeview last night with most attractive performance of "Pinafore." A large audience was present to enjoy the delightful music, in which "Pinafore' abounds, and the attractive costuming with which the opera had been staged. Pima fore" as presented last night, was one of the most complete rendtions of Gilbert and Sullivan's ever-popular opera that has ever been seen in Birmingham. Little or none of 1t was cut, and the opera was seen practically in it's entirety.
 Harry Lightfoot, as Sir Joseph Porter, the head of the English Navy, was delight full. The role of Sir Joseph is a caricature of one of England's big politicians of twenty-five years ago, and is one of the most popular roles in modern comic opera It goes almost without saying that he played the part faultlessly.
 Walter Drennen made a good Captain Corcoran, and although the part is one for a high baritone, it exhibited the. range of his voice, and he played with dignity the gallant captain of the Pinafore." In the finale of the opera, when he appeared in Ralphs cast-off clothing-that of a com mon seaman-his appearance caused some thing of mild sensation.
 Ralph Rockstraw, the sailor, who loved Josephine, as played by Dr. William F. McKenney, was one of the notable char acters of the play. He has numerous op- portunities for effective singing and acting. Ralph also made something of a sensation when he appeared in the captains old uni- form.
 Charles c. Washburn, the ever-popular baritone of the company, dropped into comedy last night, taking the part of the thrice cornered Dick Deadeye, the comic villain of the opera Dick has a great deal of very difficult music, and altogether MT. Washburn's version was one of the features of the evening.
 Will Hood was a splendid boatswain, and his song, "He Is An Englishman," was one of the most loudly applauded hits of the evening. MT. Hood has made himself nice reputation this summer.
 Miss Scruggs. as Josephine, the captain s daughter, was the daintiest of sailor maid ems, and as charming in her role as she has been all the summer. Miss Scruggs is a universal favorite in this city, both in per- sonal magnetism and merit as an opera singer.
 Dear Little Buttercup'' was played by Miss Vesey in a captivating manner. She hasn't the opportunities for singing that she had last week in 'Mikado," but in I'm Called Little Buttercup,' her duet with Captain Corcoran. Many Years Ago." and, in fact, all of her work was of the highest order; such as is necessary to make But tercup one of the most popular of all fe- male comedy roles.
 Hebe, who is Sir Joseph's cousin, is con- tinually echoing that exalted lords senti- ments with And so do his sisters and his cousins and his aunts," was impersonated by Miss Corlisse Lewis She is a tall. handsome brunette, and made an excellent Hebe.

SURPRISING SUCCESS
Was Opening of Edward-Davis Stock
 Company at East Lake

Company at East Lake
 The opening at East Lake theater of the Edwards Davis Stock Company was q surprising success. Not one of the pre- ceding attractions ever provoked more laughter, or sent away more pleased audience. The sketch, "The Midnight Train" was presented by Messrs. Earl P. Adams, Frank Hall and Harry Mindler in which the black-face comedy role was uprourrously funny, for which MT Adams deserves mention. Single specialties were presented and the olio concluded with a cake walk by Miss Margaret Kingore and Mir Frank Hall, which, though unheralded by fulsome advance notices or display of black face type on the programme, was really the feature of the bill Mir. Hall worked hard and effectively, and Miss Kingore, In her several gowns. was be- witchingly beautiful. It was certainly the best turn ever presented at the park. The afterpiece included all of the above men toned artists, Miss Minnie Seward, and MT. Frederic Heizog, who is already a favorite both locally and through his wide reputation throughout the South. The bill for Thursday night announced as MT Brass" an eccentric farce comedy It was also stated that all the performances will be arranged to conclude by 10:15. Reserved seats may be secured at Nortons.

WANT MONEY BACK
Liquor Dealers Apply for Refund ol
 License Tax

Application for the refund of money paid into the county treasury under the revenue law which was declared unconstitutional, has been made by the liquor dealers of Jefferson County and will be given due consideration.
 The matter of refunding the money which was paid under the license schedule adopted by the Legislature of 1898 may re- quire a special act of the Legislature, and the question will be taken up on its merit and test cases made.
 Under the law which was declared un- constitutional wholesale and retail dealers were required to pay s5s5 alike, while un- der the old law wholesalers were taxed only $500 and retailers $4SS.
