Hon. J. H. Montgomery and Postmaster Hughes leave for Buffalo this morning on the Pan-American fiier.

I desire to pay my respects to President Roosevelt and at the same time perfect arrangements to establish free delivery in Woodlawn, Avondale, Elyton and West End. by which they will become a part of the Birmingham office, as this was recomm ended by special agent of the postoffiee department who was sent here some time since at the request of Congressman Underwood"
 When asked if he would take any steps looking to his reappointment as post master. Dr. Hughes said; That Is matter of secondary consideration at present, as 1t was my understanding prior to seeing your special from Wash ington in yesterdays paper that this matter would not be taken up until Con gress convenes.''
 What political significance attaches to Judge Montgomery's visit to Buffalo and Washington was asked Dr. Hughes.
 Absolutely none." he replied. Judge Montgomery is not an applicant for any position whatever"

TWENTY THOUSAND
 SAW BUFFALO BILL
WILD WEST SHOW WITH ITS Ac- GREGATIoN OF ROUGH RIDERS FROM ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD DREW GREAT CROWD.

Buffalo Bill invaded Birmingham yes- terday, and with his troops of Rough Riders from all parts of the world marched through the streets, while an immense throng looked wonderingly on.
 Near unto twenty thousand people saw the afternoon and night performances. and hundreds went away to dream of lassoes, cowboys. soldiers, Indians, guns and pistols.
 It was a performance unique in its originality. and many wondered how such an aggregation of attractions could be gotten together in one corner of the globe and displayed before an audience of ten thousand persons
 The quaintly-attired horsemen from foreign climes proved @ great drawing card, but the probable hit of the day was the battle of Tien Tsln. which was the grand climax to the weird performance. In the engagement were Cossacks, Britons, Germans, Canadians and detach ments of the United States army. Their wild dash over the walls of the Chinese city was an interesting sight to the vast multitude which had gathered in the great tent
 The expert rife shooting of Miss Oak- ley and others was entertaining. and the crowd expressed great delight at the rid ing and iasso-throwing of the cowboys.

MASTERS HAND
 IN THE HILLMAN
INTERIOR FINISH OF THE GREAT
 BIRMINGHAM HoSTELRY RE. ELECTS GREAT CREDIT ON THE
 DESIGNER OF THE BEAUTIFUL.

In the interior finish of the TJote, tyu,- man one Is instinctively aware that a master hand has been at work. The creative ability and artistic finish which characterizes MT. George w. Boulden,s work has placed him In the foremost rank of his profession. Few men have achieved the phenomenal success which has met him in this work
 The soft subdued tones in the rotunda at night are artistic in the extreme. The glow Is softened and leaves the impress sion which is shown on the lights and shades in rich velvet. It is an artistic creation.
 From the rotunda one passes into the cafe. which is a continuation of the color scheme, 1t being finished in olive green. a harmonious contrast to the terra cotta-
 From the floor this rich olive merges on up to lighter olive and is gradually blended into delicate green at the cell ing, with that clouded effect so difficult to obtain. The artistic hand painting of fruits displays the finished touch of an artist. The center panel of the cafe de- picts two sleeping Cupids, while a third holds basket of grapes over their head; the idea being that the grape juice had put them to sleep. The mischievous ex- ression on the little Cupids' countenance is triumph of art. The panel was de- signed and painted by MT. Boulden. It is particularly clever depletion of express sion, and displays his skill as a painter of figures.
 From here one passes into the American planned dining room. It is difficult to ex- ing room.
 The shades of green ranging from olive to delicate clouded effect at the ceiling are used to the best advantage. and the room Is study of blend in colors.
 The Oriental room Is characterized by finish depicting all the beauty of con trast, deep crimson and olive green, and the darker shades can give and is typical of the langourous ease of the Orient.
 The double parlors are finished in Louis XIV style, old rose tones, and the single pariors in the Empire in green. It is here MT. boulden displays his deep study of his art. In each style of architecture he has carried to the minutest detail every point and made 2 masterpiece in design and finish of all.
 There was one room where admiration reached its climax; the bridal chamber. finished in blue. and gold with hand painted flowers. artlstically wrought on ceiling and frieze. On every side were heard exclamations of admiration, and the compliments were universally given. for the Hotel Hillman Is beautiful struc- ture, finished thoroughly and artisticaiIy throughout.

THE SPLENDID HOTEL HILLMAN And It's Wonderful Wealth of ArtIstic
 Furnishings.

Everybody Is praising the new Hotel Hillman and its marveiously beautiful furnishings and general artistic eduip- centuate the prosperity and progress of Birmingham the Hotel Hillman does it. While the modern and handsome struct- ure itself signifies much, it's equipment means more.

Loveman, Joseph & Loeb. Sentiment is not the explanation of this fact. It was the ability of the local concern to furnish the most artistic plan of furnishing. over that of all other plans submitted. The success of their efforts will appeal to all who have artistic appreciation.
 Of general interes In connection with this splendid new kotel, 1t may be stated that the carpets and upholstery goods and draperies were bought and planned by J. W. Montgomery. the buyer for the carpet department of Loveman. Joseph & Loeb. Mir. Montgomery said that there was over 10000 yards of carpeting and over TOO window shades used. He stated that their cost was probably exceeded on- iy by one hotel in the South, the Ponce de Leon in Florida
 The furniture in the hotel was pur- chased by the buyer. J. H. Loveman, and his success is clearly attested.
 The crockery. china and glassware. representing nearly 10000 separate pieces. was purchased by Leo Loeb assisted by Mfr. Giles. buyer of the china department. And all of this was helped in no con siderable mean way by the New York office of Loveman. Joseph & Loeb. pre- sided over by MT. Emil Loeb. Mr. T. B. Litton, the buyer, assisting
