MORE DESIGNATIONS TO
 FOLLOW IN SLOSS co.
Mr. Hopkins Announced Determina- tion to Resign Is Chief Topic In
 Industrial Circles.


 The announced determination of MT. D. O. Hopkins to retire from the presidency of the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron Com pany was the chief topic in business cir cles yesterday. MT. Hopkins will sever his connection with the company on or about the 1st of May.
 MT. Gentry Hillman, the manager of the Sloss- Sheffield city furnaces, resigned day before yesterday, and Mir. c. H. Scholar, auditor of the company rendered his resignation yesterday. These resignations were accepted by Mir. Hopkins, to take effect May 1. It is known that other re- signations will soon follow.
 Mir. Schoolar has been with the Sloss Company for eleven years and has made a fine record for himself. For the past two or three years he has had a large in- terest in the o, L. Gregory Vinegar Com pany of Paducah. Ky, which operates ex- tensively in the Southern states, with headquarters at Birmingham Upon re- tiring from the service of the Sloss- -Shef- field Company. MT Schoolar will give his entire time to the vinegar business.

TO ENTER THE GREAT SHOOTING TOURNAMENT
MT. J. c. BroyIes and Mr. John Living ston Leave for Kansas
 City.

MT. J. c. Broyles, who last year tied J. D. R. Elliott. the worlds champion shot at live birds and Mir. John Living ston left Birmingham yesterday for Kan. gas City to enter the worlds champion ship live bird handicap. They are the only representatives Birmingham will have but it is certain they will hold up their end of the shooting. although pitt ted against the best shots in the world.
 Mir. Broyles is the inventor of a choke bore on a Winchester shotgun which he claims makes 1t carry much further with as much accuracy. Last year to prove what he claims he challenged Elliott, the champion, to shoot with him at 40 yards, which is 12 yards greater than is required in championship tournaments, and tied him in the score, both killing s7 birds out of 100. At 40 yards this is considered ex- cellent shooting.
 MT. Livingston shot in all the tourna- ments held last year in Alabama and showed good form. While shooting against the best the country affords he will probably be in at the finish more than once.
 The tournament will be the greatest ever held in the United States. Already there are nearly 800 entered, and 1t Is thought enough more will enter later to make the half thousand.

FIREMEN TO GIVE
 THEIR FIRST BALL
PROCEEDS WILL GO TOWARDS EQUIPPING A LIBRARY AND A READING ROOM IN THE NEW CITY HALL BUILDING.

The first annual ball of the Birmingham Ire department will be given April IS in the armory in the new city hall building. It will be for the benefit of the library and other comforts for the firemen The ball will be on an elaborate scale, and as 1t Is the first the flremen intend it shall be the best
 Two committees have been appointed to arrange and manage the ball. Tom Cox, at headquarters, is the chairman; R. F. Summers, at headquarters. is secretary, and J. E. Keith is the treasurer. The re- ception committee is A. P. Mullin, chair man; c. M. Lane and F. H. Duke All the firemen will have tickets, which will cost a. ladies free.
 An orchestra, to consist of eight pieces, has been engaged, and arrangements will be made to appropriately decorate the hall. The red and blue, charact eristic of the fire department, will be the prevailing colors.
 The ball will be the first entertainment given in the armory, which is nearly com pleted. The floor is large and will be in fine condition for dancing. The proceeds will go to equipping reading room and library for the tiremen. This featur, will be placed on ,-.e third floor above the fire department and Is to he fitted out with tables, easy chairs and all the latest literature.
 The firemen are also anxious to carpet the bedrooms on the second floor. If the proceeds will allow they will purchase a nice carpet and make several little i'm proyements in their rooms.

Talladega, Marc 29.-(special. )-Stand- able record for ability, honesty and ad- herence to duty, Hon. Alexander M. Gar Der of this city has announced as a can didate for Attorney General of Alabama. He has been a resident of this place since back in the good time of 1891, and has made such a number of strong friends that he has been assured of the support of this county and the entire dis trict surrounding it. No regard Is given for past or present factions in the en- dorsement of Colonel Garber.
 During my stay in Talladega, I met the distinguished attorney in the court house during a session of the Criminal Court, and was decidedly impressed by the ability shown in the handling of nu- merous cases where he was prosecuting attorney during the week. With upright, distinguishing appearance, he boldly worked with zeal and brave display of earnestness in each instance. And as a result he was successful in the work of the week.
 For a number of years Colonel Garber has been solicitor of the City Court of Talladega, and 1t is due to the continu- ou5 display of the same power and spirit shown this week that he has been so eminently successful as to receive the en- dorsement of the local bar and those fa- miliar with conditions existant in this section of the state. The work has been arduous. but it has been performed val iantly. Holding the same views Of all of ficials of the county who have watched

been entered into the price win soon be reduced to s1 per thousand Our prison is now being overhauIed and win be com pleted within the next thirty days which will provide ample and seperate aoeommo- dations for both white and colored pFis- oners as well as male and female pris- oners.
 Three new schools have just been com. pleted at cost of $54,O0o. sufficient to meet present requirements. Transfers will be given on all street car lines en- tering this city after September 1. In fact every pledge made by me has been carried out with the exception of a reduction in the exhorbitant rate charged by the Birmingham Water Works Company for water. If this company. which MT. London has so ably represented for the past five years, would make the rates charged for water the same as is now charged by the water works in Atlanta, Ga, it would amount to almost as much as all licenses collected from the mer- chants, the liqorr dealers, the contrac- tors, the lawyers, the doctors and sundry other businesses, which amounts to more than $100,000.
 Charge Violation of Contract.
 This city now has suits pending against the Birmingham Water Works company for charging more for water man their contract allows Another suit IS pending to force them to pay their license for doing business in this city, which they have refused to pay
 An ordinance has recently been passed Ioroidding any extra charge for sprinkling lawns, which certainly Is one of the do- mestic uses for water. I understand that this company claims that water used in spr1nkling lawn in front of a residence Is not water used for domestic purposes and that they will resist this ordinance In case it is used for such purposes after April 10 they will turn off the water un- less this extra charge for sprinkling be paid.
 This company insists on a charge against boarding house keepers (most of whom are widows who are forced through circumstances into this business for hvelihooO on a meter basis instead of a dwelling house rate.

London is not forced by financial consideration to repre- sent company that is working a hard ship on the people whom he so much desires to serve."
