LEONORA JACKSON MAY
 COME TO BIRMINGHAM
Effort Being Made to Bring Great Vio-
 linist Here-Grand Music at Methodist Church.

There is a prospect of having Leonora Jackson, the violinist in Birmingham in January. The Treble Clef Club started out to do something in the way of bringing number of virtuosi, including Miss Jack son, to this city during the present season, but it's schemes seem to have fallen through A number of prominent musical people, headed by Mir. Guckenberger, have, however, become interested in the Jackson proposition and this great artist, il is hoped, will be heard here next month in some of her brilliant selections. She has fine soprano in her company and 1t has been suggested that the May Festival cho- rus might still further heighten the value of the programme. The chorus might sing at least one of the popular numbers that it gave at the last festival, say Fair FL len." The local singers couldn't be in choicer musical company, for Leonora Jackson is one of the greatest violinists in the world today. She played last season before Queen Victoria, the German Elm press and other royalties, besides filling notable engagements with the Philharmonic Orchestra in Berlin and the Thomas orches- tra and the Boston Symphony orchestra in this country.
 The chief musical attraction in Birming ham next Sunday will be at the First Meth odist, morning and night, when the grand est numbers of Handers oratorio, The Messiah" will be sung. Oscar Ehrgott, the distinguished baritone, has been engaged for the occasion.
 At the morning service the musical pro- gramme will include the following Mes siah" numbers:
 l. Chorus-"And the Glory of the Lord'
 2. MI. Ehrgott-Recitative, "'Thus Sayeth the Lord" and aria, But Who May Abide the Day of His Coming"
 B. Chorus-"Oh, Thou That Tellest Good Tidings to Zion"
 4. Mrs. kenberger-Recitative, "Then Shall the Eyes of the Blind Be Opened' and aria, "He Shall Feed His Flock"
 5. Soprano, Mrs. Chandler, Come Unto Him All Ye That Labor"
 G. Chorus-"Lift Up Your Heads Oh, Ye Gates"
 At the night service the Messiah" music will be as follows:
 l. Chorus-"Behold the Lamb of God"
 g. MT. Ehrgott-Recitative, For Behold Darkness Shall Cover the Earth and aria, ''The People That Walked in Darkness"
 B. Chorus-"Wor Is the Lamb"
 f. Mrs. Guckenberger-"He Was Despised and Rejected of Men,"
 D. Quartette-"Since by Man Came Death;" chorus, By Man Came also the Resurrection of the Dead;" quartette, For in Adam All Die;" chorus, "Even so in Christ Shall All Be Made Alive.'
 G. Mrs. Chandler-'I know that My Re- deemer Liveth"
 '. Ohorus-Lift Up Your Heads"
 S. Mr Ehrgott-"Why Do the Nations so Furiously Rage Together?"
 10. The Hallelujah chorus.
 There will be rehearsals at the Methodist church tomorrow night and Saturday night.
 MT Ehrgott will sing at Temple Emanuel Sunday afternoon in the Hanukah service, and it is understood that the Methodist choir i'll volunteer for the same service. orchestra, at St. Paul's hall tonight, when Gounods St. Cecilia mass will receive fin- shing touches.

COY. SANFORD IS
 REGAINING HEALTH Many lnquirerS Call Daily at the
 Governors Office HIS SONS CHEERFUL REPORT Says the Governor Is Now Able to Walk About the Garden and Attend to
 His Personal Affairs-He
 Reads the Papers.

Age-Herald Bureau, Clanceys Hotel, Montgomery. December 1s.-(SpeciaL) - There are few callers at the office of the chief executive of the State, who fail to make enquiry of the condition of Governor Sanford. Private Secretary Thomas D. Sanford was giving out most favorable news today. MT. Sanford, the younger, spent Sunday in opelka with his father, and his stay was of sufficient length to per- init full observation of his fathers real condi ton.
 In answer to a querry from the reporter, MT. Sanford said that his fathers condi- ton was quite satisfactory. He sat up in an easy chair the entire day Sunday, talk ing walk through the garden about noon. It was his purpose to go for a drive i'll the afternoon but the wind was quite too chilling for the risk. He received many callers during the day, and conversed in a more cheerful manner than at any time since he has so far recovered as to receive callers
 Hs~reads the papers daily, and attends to much of his personal business. It must not be understood by this statement that the Governor is sufficiently strong to give attention to matters pertaining to his of ficiaT duties. While he is fast recovering, he is still macerated. His physicians do not longer make the regular daily calls, but go only as they would to watch the improvement of any patient.
 'I really believe that father is in better condition now than he has been for the past three or four months,'' MT. Sanford concluded.
 This is most cheerful news to the thou sands of Alabamians who have been pray ing so earnestly for the restoration to health of Governor Sanford.

 In conclusion, MT Griggs submitted that sthe judgments in the lower courts in both cases violate no constitutional or other right, and therefore should be affirmed.
 Justice Brewer inquired of the attorney general soon after he had begun if he msl:!- tained that Arizona and New Mexico came into the same category with the new cSs- sessions in the limitations which could be placed upon them. MT. Griggs said he @oald Ia ter consider how far the territories in this country and those beyond the sea rested on the same basis.
 MT. Grigg's argument was not concluded when, at 4:3O p. m., the court adjourned un- til tomorrow.
