EXCITING DUEL
 WITH A BURGLAR
SID SMITH FINDS STRANGE MAN IN HOUSE AND OPENS FIRE. THIEF ALSO LETS GO WITH A PISTOL.

Sid Smith, living at 1920 Tenth avenue South' fought an exciting duel with a burglar at his home Saturday night Pis- tols were used by both persons. but no one was injured. The burglar escaped.
 The burglar or probably burglars were most business like persons as soon as they entered the dwelling, they made for the dining room. Here they found a whiskey bottle, but instead of taking it straight" they found sugar and made several todies. Thus refreshed they went through every room in the house. secur- ing two suits of clothes, a watch chain and stick-pin set with a pearl
 The story of the duel is full of thrilling interest, and is graphically told by Off cer Cunningham. of the ponce rorce, as follows:
 MT. Smith returned home from his office about o'clock Saturday night His mother was absS~. on a visit to rel atives in a neighboring city. Consequent ly he was surprised to see a light in a front room upstairs. With the intention of Investigating the cause of this light he entered the front door on the first floor.
 The hallway was dark, but as he en- tered 1t he heard man trying to run out Pulling his pistol and shouting for the individual to stop he began shooting. The burglar then pulled pistol and also began shooting.
 Six shots were fired by Mr. Smith as the man run. Each time the pistol was aimed at the fleeing form. In return the burglar fired two shots at Mr. Smith. None of them took effect, however, and the burglar soon disappeared in the dark
 MT. Smith returned to the house, tel ephoned the police department, and be- gan to make an examination of the place. He found that every room in the building had been entered and all drawers ward robes and trunks ransacked The only missing articles so far as be could say were two suits of clothing, several suits of underwear a gold watch chain, and a gold stick-pin set with pearl
 An examination of the building show ed that the burglars had forced an en- trance by means of bursting the lock of the rear door with a hatchet All indi- cations seemed to point to the presence of at least two men in the job. Their work also indicated they were experts in the business of robbing houses, for no clue was left"

 And now in conclusion; those who un- dertake to discharge public duties are necessarily public servants and must be subject to supervision by the public.
 Whenever special privileges and public property are given, to be exercised or used In the service of the public, those receiving the privileges and property as- suming obligations to the public, the business to be conducted Is necessarily affected with a public use, and to tho extent of that use Is subject to legisla- tive regulation.
 Public Supervision and Control.
 Public servants are entitled to a req sonable compensation for the service rendered, and no more, and that compen- sation should include not only adequate return for the personal service rendered but fair compensation for private prop erty involved, but the value of the public property or privilege ought not to enter into the computation The right of the citizen Is to have these natural monopo- lies furnished to him at the smallest cost, to be supplied with the most ex- tended service, and to have that service brought to the latest state of perfection the duty of their representatives is the co-relative of these rights, and all grants should be conditioned accordingly. Abso- lutely essential to an accomplishment of the end; public supervision and control over private conduct is sufficient, being ever tempered by a just and proper re- gard for the rights of the private individ- ual to whom the privileges and property are farmed, to fair return for his labor and reasonable return upon his proper ty embarked in the enterprise"

LEAGUE MAGNATES
 EXPECTED HERE
ARRANGING SOUTHERN LEAGUE CIRCUIT FOR NEXT SEASON. LATEST HINT IS THAT KNOX. VILE MAY BE TAKEN IN.

A party of baseball magnates are mak- ing tour of the cities included in inc Southern League and are expected in Birmingham within few days. It is un- derstood the object of their visit is to carefully study the schedule question be fore arranging a card for next season. It Is also understood that Shreveport will be dropped from the league as that city is too small to support club, and espe- cially to make expenses for the visiting teams.
 With Shreveport out some other city has to be given a franchise and several bids have been made for team. Mont gomery was at first very anxious to have baseball next year and 1t is possible the franchise may be awarded to that city as 1t is said. arrangements have been made so that Sunday ball can be played.
 The party of magnates also have Knox vile under consideration and for several days have been in that city consulting with the business men. The following special was received by The Age-Herald from Knoxville last night:
 Newt Fisher, manager of the Nashville baseball team; Charles Frank, manager of the Memphis team, and w. A. Harden. secretary and treasurer of the Southern League with, headquarters at Chatta- nooga, have been visiting in this city for the past few days and 1t is presumed that the object of their visit is to look into the matter of organizing a league team in Knoxville.
 "The gentlemen came unheralded, and so far as can be learned have taken their departure without consulting any local baseball enthusiasts. From good author ity 1t Is learned that they consulted with leading business men relative to Knox vile being included in the Southern League next season. The gentlemen with whom they discussed the matter refuse to divulge the results of the conference but openly hint that Knoxville may have a team in the Southern League next season.
 Manager Frank Moffct, who managed Knoxville's team for several years, be- lieves that a bid will be made to get league team in Knoxville. but thinks Knoxville will be included in another league.

This Corporation Will Take Up Matter of Building a
 Labor Temple
HELD SPECIAL MEETING
Matter Discussed and Action on Work of By Laws Committee Deferred Till the Company is Or
 Ganized.

The Birmingham Trades Council held a special meetip<. yesterday afternoon at Bricklayers hall for the purpose of con sidering the labor temple matter.
 After much discussion a committee of i've consisting of P. H. Moore, W. F. Carnes, Fred Garris, w. C. Cunningham and W. F. Mccartney, was appointed to make application in the regular way for permission to organize a stock company for the purpose of erecting, maintaining and conducting building as a home for organized labor to be known as a Labor Temple.
 The matter has been agitated for quite a time, and while there was unanim ous desire for such home. the best plan to pursue WIS hard tt arrive at and for this reason TO further progress has been made. The question of raising the neces- sary funds and yet keep the control of the building in the hands of the Trades Council has been the stumbling point. The council first appointed a committee to draft constitution and bylaws, then director from each affiliated local union vas appointed ard they got together and passed or the work of the bylaws com mittee.
 The Funds Stumbling Block
 The work of tn4 dire.;,'s wAs submit. ted to the council and the meeting yes- terdny was to ccliE.o,r this constitution two hours time consumed in discussion when the ronc lps'pn vas reac.cd th9 the pan as cutlirtd in the constitution ! ould not be Ingal 3nder the laws of Alabama providing for stock companies, and new start was taken by appoint Ing the committee of five with instruc- tions that they secure the assistance of lawyer to aid them in their work. The plan IS considered the most feasible and satisfactory.
 Place for Labor to Meet.
 The Labor Temple is to be so erected that it will furnish meeting halls for the unions, have a library, reading rooms, swimming pool and other conven- fences. The council has little doubt that through the plan of a regularly incor- porated stock company plenty of funds can be raised to erect handsome build ing and fit it up.
 The building matter being disposed of for this meeting, the report of the griev- ance committee was heard, and several persons and firms declared unfair, while others were stricken from the unfair list. The council will hold its regular meeting next Sunday.
