 FOR THE YEAR 1900
Splendid Showing Made by the Birmingham Banks for Past
 Twelve Months

 the volume of business transacted in the city day by day. They show clearly that the trade of Birmingham Is growing at 0 very rapid rate, and that within few more years at most this city will stand at the head of southern cities in trade, as it does now in manufactures. Atlanta's clearances for 1900 were only $S6,OG ,000, and that city has for a long time been looked upon as the trade center for the entire southeast.

BIRMINGHAM IS THE
 MECCA OF TRAVELLERS

An hour spent at the union passenger sta- ton almost any afternoon will convince one that an enormously large number of per- sons come to Birmingham during the year.
 Yesterday afternoon when one train stop- ped under the shed 105 persons, by actual count, got off and passed out at the exit gate. This Is perhaps a larger number than the average but divided by two, which certainly is not overestimating the visitors to Birmingham, it gives fifty-two persons as the average number coming to the city on each of the passenger trains that arrive here daily. During the twentyfour hours fifty passenger trains arrive and depart from the union station, making twenty-five that arrive. Multiply twenty-five by fifty

two and 1t gives thirteen hundred. In other words, the average number of persons the railroads bring to Birmingham daily is about 1900. If equal number leave the city, then 2600 persons either arrive or de- part from Birmingham every day in the year. In three hundred and sixty-five days, or a year, at this rate nearly one million persons would either arrive in Birmingham or leave the city.
 There was no unusual travel on the par ticular train referred to and there were not more than half a dozen faces familiar to frequenters of the station, or old residents of Birmingham. The count did not include through passengers who got off the train and transferred to others, who continued their journey on the same train.

Mrs. Blake'S
Thanksgiving

ooh, dear me, SUI! If that hain't too
bad!' Mrs. Betsey Blake cried in al
most fearful yeXation as she stepped
backward from the stove and with a
rueful face regarded thin stream Of
water trickling from crack low down
on the side of the wash boiler and
sputtering into a cloud Of steam on the
hot stove. John" she called in a voice
full Of trouble, 1.-The bller's leakin' like
mad, an it looks as if just nothin' short
of a tinker could stop it."
Her husband came into the kitchen
from the woodshed at a leisurely pace
and with an air of confidence in his
ability to cope with any number of
leaky boilers. But as he examined the
irregular assure his face took on a puz-
zled and then a more serious express
sion.
Maybe you might stick a rag into
it." he suggested.
mo, not in such a shaped hole as
that" she said decisively aud began
dipping the water out into a pail.
You've got TO take it to the village
an have 1t soddered, an that's all
there is about 1t. It'll just spoil the
day, so | can't wash afore tomorrow,
an that'll put back my Thanksgivin'
work. Hain't it too bad? Dear me, l
most wish we hadn't asked father an
mother an Abigail to come"
well, I'm sorry it's happened so, but
never mind. You'll fetch things round
all right You gen'ally do said he, so
confidently that her spirits rose above
the present disappointment.
Il can do some of tomorrow's work
today an be so much ahead" she said,
and before he was on his way she had
half pumpkin pared and stewing in
the place of the boiler.
Next morning the mended boiler was
reinstated. BY noon the delayed wash
ing was completed, and Betsy Blake
looked out complacently from her be-
lated dinner upon the long array of
spotless clothes fluttering from the
swaying line like triumphant banners.
In the afternoon part of the ironing
was done, and the next morning she
