CLOSED UP THE STREET
pETITIoN FOR MANDAMUS AGAINST JUDGE CoLEMAN.
City of Birmingham Seeks to Have Him Enjoined from obstructing Street Adjacent to
 Court House.

The controversy between the city of Birmingham and Judge A. A. Coleman of the Tenth Judicial Circuit, over the obstruction of a street in the Magic City reached the Alabama Supreme Court yesterday on a petition by the Mayor and Aldermen of Birmingham for writ of mandamus to compel Judge Coleman to allow the street to be opened.
 Twenty-first Street in Birmingham runs by the Jefferson County court house wherein Judge Coleman has been pre- siding over the Circuit Court of the coun- ty. The noise from the paved street an noyed the court and Judge Coleman ordered that the street for the block ad- jacent to the court house be closed ex- cept to electric cars during the sitting of the court.
 To put the order of Judge Coleman into effect the street was roped off and a baliff from the court was stationed at each end of the block with instructions to let no conveyances except street cars through the street until the court ad- journed.
 The order of Judge Coleman raised the ire of the Mayor and Aldermen of the Capital City of Jefferson and they called in E. D. Smith, their legal adviser, who wears the title of City Attorney. Eivi- dently MT. Smith was of the opinion that Judge Coleman had exceeded the au- thority accorded him by the State of Alabama for MT. Smith sets out in the petition of the Mayor and Aldermen of Birmingham that Judge Coleman has been guilty of a misdemeanor and is liable to indictment and punishment for closing the Birmingham street.
 The petition for mandamus was filed with the Supreme Court yesterday by City Attorney Smith of Birmingham. La wyers representing Judge Coleman, John P Tillman and James Weatherly of Birmingham, waived the usual notice to Judge Coleman and immediately sub mitted an answer to the petition.
 The controversy went to the Supreme Court on briefs and decision will proba- bly, be rendered Saturday, June 2s. to which time the court has adjourned.

PREPARING TO ENTERTAIN ALABAMA PRESS ASSOCIATION
Amusement Places in New York City and at the Seashore Will Be Thrown Open to
 Them.

The Alabama Press Association. one hundred strong, will reach New York on July 15, and will remain in New York in- til the evening of July IS, says the Ne" York World.
 Secretary J. A. Roentree has addressed the following letter to the managing edi- tor of The World:
 Birmingham, Ala, June Il, 1902. Managing Editor World, New York City: Dear Sir-The Alabama Press Associa- tion. composed of a party of one hundred, representing the leading weekly and dally papers in Alabama, will arrive in New York City on the m orning of July l5 and will be in your city until the evening or the 18th. Our he adquarters will be at the Hotel Empire in Sixty-third Street.
 We are anxious to see as much of New York as possible, and any courtesy you may extend to us will be greatly appre- ciated. Yours fraternany.
 J. A. RoUNTREE.
 Secretary. The purveyors of amusement in New York, when they learned of the desires Of the Alabama editors. showed every anx- iety to see that the party had a good time. The Long Island Railroad is con- sidering a plan for their transportation to Manhattan Beach; the managers of the bathing beach will see to 1t that the Ala bamians get a plunge in the surf; Man ager J. w. Mckinney will welcome them to his concert whenever they come, and Manager Silleck, of the hotel, promises to see to it that all eating is done at cost less than nominal. All of Coney Island is waiting for the editors, their wives and sweethearts, and the full cour- tesies of purified Coney will be ex- tended.
 George W. Lederer. proprietor of "The Wild Rose" at Knickerbocker Theatre, said yesterday that he will throw open his house to the party. The editors and their friends will not have to stop at the box office of the Casino. where The Chi nese Honeymoon is the vogue, nor at the pay place of the Herald Square, where Dolly Warden still fares hap oily. Manager Sam S. Shubert will see that such is the case at both playhouses. Manager Frank L.. Perley, who has "The Chaperons" at the New York, will furnish seats to the Southerners and do whatever else is necessary to make them happy. All these managers expect to be open when the Alabamians are here. and they say they'll be sorry if they are not.

HEBRON STREET SCHOOL.
Workmen Have Begun Rebuilding
 the Structure,

The work of reconstructing the Heron Street School building, which was de- stroyed by fire in January. has begun and is being rapidly pushed. The con- tractors hope to have the building com pleted in time for the opening of the fall school term.
 A force of hands has been at work on the building only few days but the damaged walls of the old building have been torn down to the first story. The chief difference between the old structure and the new building which is now going up is that the walls of the new edifce will be twelve inches thick instead of nine inches thick in the building that was burned.
 The heating apparatus in the building will be an improvement on the old. The latest improved system of ventilation and heating will be put in the building that is going up. These constitute the differ ences in the plans of the new and the old structures. Otherwise the plans are practically the same. The exterior of the new building will, however, be an i'm provement in appearance over the old.

 Cadillac said: "He who has an impor> tant mission to perform, must go through the world like a traveller who cannot stop to notice every cur on the road that parks at him." It is not known just when this gallant gentiIhomme' came 60 try ms fortunes in the New World. In 1887 when he was about 30 years old. he was mar ried at Quebec to Marie Therese Guyon. a native of that city. The marriage was a happy one; Marie bore her husband thirteen children. Thirteen years after his marriage, July 24, 17Ji, Cadillac came to the site of this beautiful city to es- tablish and manage a new trading post and colony for his sovereign.
 Last year Detroit celebrated by mag nificent festival and parade Its bi-centen- nial; so this city is not one year older than Mobile. Three months after CadiI-
  dame Tonty, wife of the friend of La- Sale, set out from Quebec to join their husbands They travelled by the way of Niagara. These two "dames of high de- gree" city born and bred. journeyed for one thousand miles in an open canoe, with no attendants but Indians. and rough .'comreurs de bois," wilder often than the savages.
 Father Germain wrote to Cadillac from Quebec: Everyone here is filled with admiration at the boldness of these two ladies wno have had the courage to un- dertake such painful voyage in order to join thei: husbands" When friends tried to dissuade Madame Cadillac on ac- count of the dangers of the way and the rude life she must lead on reaching De- troit she said
 "A wife who truly loves her husband finds no attraction in life so strong as his company, wherever 1t be. All other circumstances count for nothing With her.
 It must not he forgotten that. rightly or wrongly, the Indians around Detroit enioyed the reputation of being cannibals at this time.
 Sienr de Cadillac governed the new post under his monarchs commission wisely and well for about twelve years, justify ing the words of his commission in which it was stated that command WAS given to him on account of his Valor, wisdom, eN- perience and good conduct"
