At the Auditorium.

With the opening of the Auditorium Monday night by R. Coley Anderson an entirely new class of amusement and en- tertainment will be inaugurated In BIT mingham. The vaudeville artists 10 eh- certain at the Auditorium are said to be of the very highest class. As rule the programmes, it is promised, will be of the lighter kind to serve merely Tor the passing away of a pleasant evening, all though frequently the headliners will be former stars in the legitimate.
 By summer 1t is probable the house Will be rearranged and in the rear will be placed summer garden, where refresh ments will be served.
 The orchestra will be one of the special features of the theatre. MT. Anderson believes nothing draws people to thea ire more than good music, and he has already made arrangements for several very fine musicians to be in the pit Mon day night Prof. Fred L. Grambs, who was a long time associated with the Jeff ferson Theatre will be the leader, ana he has secured MT. D. w. Pitts, first vio- lin; MT. w. H. Crumrine, clarinet; Philip Memoli cornet; John Norton, trombone; and Rudolph Richter, drums and effects. Others will be signed rapidly until a large and complete orchestra has been secured. Professor Grambs has been in Birmingham many years and is recog- nized as a landmark here in musical cir cles.
 Pauline Hall is the headliner for the opening week. and Whistling Tom Brown with. others equally as prominent com pose the remainder of the bill. Among them are Monroe, Mack and Lawrence in a sketch How to Get Rid of Your Moth er-in-law;" Mazuz and Mazett in 'The Brakeman and The Tramp" and Wood- fords monkey circus.

"The Old Homestead"

One of the, prettiest scenes in ''The Old Homestead" and the one which caused the greatest comment on it's production, is the beautiful picture of Grace Church, New York, by moonlight. When the scene was first talked of before it's pro- duction, one feature. which was over looked by all concerned save MT. Thomp- son himself was to secure a real church organ.
 When the expense was considered. it was voted almost an impossibility, but Mir. Thompson had faith in his play, and after weeks of consultation with the best organ makers in the country the re- suit was magnificent piece of musical mechanism set up on the stage of the Boston theatre.
 When "The Old Homestead' was taken to the Academy of Music. New York for what proved to be the longest and most successful run that any American drama has enjoyed in our history-the organ inl Boston was taken apart and shipped there. but on being put together again

Only Man Who Hass Been Elected Six Times to Senate.

1 nate Samuel J. Kirkwood for Governor. | In 1860 he was one of the Iowa delegates to the Chicago convention and as assist ant secretary called the roll of States when the Republicans nominated Lincoln for President.
 When Iowa was asked to furnish men to meet the rebellion, Allison was ur- gently requested by Governor Kirkwood to become a member of his staff and assist in the organization or the Iowa reg l iments. He superintended the enlistment of volunteers and was given unlimited authority in the purchase of supplies and equipment
 | When Iowa got six members of Con- gress in place of two Allison was in- l duced to enter Congress March 4. 1863. Among other members in the thirty eighth, or War Congress-" were James A. Garfield and James G. Blaine. and the three became fast friends, which friend ship continued until ended by death
 MT. Allison served four terms in the | House, and in his second term went on l the Committee on Ways and Means and l took up the study. of national finances. 1 After serving in four Congresses as a l Representative, MT. Allison declined a re- nomination and was out of public life for a short time. His friends urged him for appointment to the Senate on the death of Senator Grimes, but he was not | appointed. In 1872 he became a candidate to succeed Senator Harlan and he was successful. and took his seat March 4, 1873. in the Senate, where he has ever since continued.
 He was of the special committee which prepared the bill for the resumption of specie payments in 1875. He was the author of the important amendments to the Bland bill in 1878. which had great influence on the coinage question. He was q member of the subcommittee which prepared the Senate amendments to the Mckinley tariff bill in 1890. He in- troduced the amendment to the civil ser vice bill which made the commission in- dependent of all departments of the gov ernment.
 In all of his Congressional work Mr. Allison has been painstakng and stu dious. His name is not attached to any one famous measure. but his work Is in- iected into many measures for which oth- CTS have received the credit. He has sought to finish and perfect legislation, rather than to originate.
 Twice has Senator Allison had the op- portunity to leave the Senate for an ad- ministrative position. He was invited into the Garfield Cabinet to be Secretary
 of the Treasury, and General Harrison
 rendered him the same position He de-
 clined both.
 Senator Allison was twice married but
 his life has been two long bereavements.
 His first wife died in 1860 He married
 Mary Nealley in 1873. when serving his
 first term in the United States Senate 1 Mrs. Allison was practically an invalid l before her marriage, due, it is believed ] to an attack of Roman fever abroad She died in August, 1883.

STORM IS UNABATEp,
Many Fishermen Reported Drowned In

something was wrong: 1t would not work to the satisfaction of MT. Thompson, who is a master on detail, and another expensive organ was set up in the Aca- demy and there it now stands a monu- ment to MT. Thom pson's expensive tastes.
 Since The Old Homestead" was first produced six organs have been built for MT. Thompson, but only one Is of any use as the others will not stand trans portauon. This season MT. Thompson has had built for him massive special improved organ, which is guaranteed to withstand all kinds of travel, of pure, sonorous and orchestral tone, and thea tregoers of this city will have an oppor- tunity to hear it with the famous choir singers
 MT. Thompson's desire to have a first c>ass organ in his production has cost him in the neighborhood of $25,0O0 But he will have it.
 The company and production which MT. Thompson carries this season is said to be exceptional for a road tour.
 The Old Homestead' will be at the Jefferson theatre next Friday and Sat urday and Saturday matinee.

Richard Burmeister.

Richard Burmeister, the great piano virtuoso who is to appear at the Jefferson Theatre Tuesday, February Il, is de- scribed as "a poetically appearing artist, but better than that he is real artist. a musician of the highest rank MT. Finck in the New York Post says of him:
 His programme ranged from Handel to Liszt and Burmeister, thus giving the pianist an opportunity to show his skill in various schools. The best feature of his playing was revealed in the Schumann sonata, op. II. As others play it there Is much that seems obscure in that work, but under Mir. Burmeister's fingers every phrase became lucid and intelligible. The clearness of his phrasing Is really remark able, and prevents his playing from ever being monotonous.

Much curiosity has already been mani Tested in this city in the appearance of Kathryn I<idder, who will be seen here next Wednesday and Thursday nights and Thursday matinee at the Jefferson

Glen MacDon- ough, the author of the play. is said to have succeeded admirably in writing a play around this historic incident The battle naturally is made the principal scene of the production, and is said to be presented on even greater scale than. the famous battle of Shenandoah.
