SAID MIR. BINGHAM

Gossip Has 1t That Mckinley Held Up Morton's Appoint

There is much gossip in regard to the probable retention of J. H. Bingham col lector of internal revenue. Some time ago Judge T. B. Morton was given the ap- pointment by the late President Mckin- ley. At the time MT. Bingham is said to have visited MT. Mckinley in Canton. After this visit a statement was made that Mortons appointment had been held up Then followed the Presidents death.
 A special to the Nashville Banner from Washington says:
 .'The indications seem to be that J. H. Bingham, collector of internal revenue for the district of Alabama, will be con- tinued in office and that the appointment of MT. Morton as his successor will be held up indefinitely. MT. Bingham is still in office, and as in the case of all col lectors of internal revenue he holds on until his successor qualities. The ap- pointment of MT. Morton was ordered held up by President Mckinley. Bingham has filed an endorsement from Senator Morgan"

The hymn Coronation" was then sung by the assembly and Dr. Luman s. Hand ley, pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church, prayed for divine blessing, upon the congregation.

AMUSEM ENTS.
"The Bureomaster."

Tonight, tomorrow matinee and tomor- row night 'The Burgomaster" will be the attraction at the Jefferson Theatre. The Atlanta Constitution of Saturday, in speaking of the performance, said:
 ''The Burgomaster" made good last night at the Grand. It more than came up to expectations; in fact, it received a positive ovation.
 A large audience was present, and from the very first 1t was evident that only good things were coming. A large and excellent company formed the very com potent caste, and they made the most of the many good features.
 Of the music by Gustav Luders nothing could be said too good in describing it. The score abounds in the brightest, catch fest airs and some very sweet and dainty music as we'll as some of a little heavier quality even more attractive. The dain- tiness and originality of the melody would have been well adapted to the highest class of light opera of a daintier quality than the present comedy medium.
 MT. Herbert Cawthorn. in the star role, was a great favorite with the audience. and deservedly so. His comedy methods are of a kind which pleases the entire house-not the gallery exclusively.
