NJ PING PONC
 ON A SUNDAY Members of Athletic Club
 Notified of Law STATEMENT OF CHIEF AUSTIN Says He Did Not Give Policeman Or der to Stop the Game, But
 That 1t Is Against the Law.
STATEMENT OF CHIEF AUSTIN

The members of the Birmingham Atk- Ietlc club must not play ping pong any more on Sunday. Yesterday the club was notified that the practice had to be dis continued, the orders coming from one of the policemen. It was also ordered that basketball, pool billiards and similar games played at the club must cease in the future.
 The order was Issued only to the Ath- letic club. but 1t is said to apply to the other clubs In the city where the prac- tice goes. Ping pong seems to be the chief trouble.
 When asked about the matter yesterday afternoon, Chief Austin said that the policeman knew their duty, and that all such things were against the law. He said men could not legally play any games at the clubs on Sunday, neither could a social game of cards be played on Sunday, even fin tho sacred precincts of the home The orders, he said, did not come directly from him. and that the policeman had only done his duty. He said the same thing should apply to the other clubs. if the games were being played there.
 Should the games continue, 1t is possible the club, or clubs, will come under po- lice observation. The men, it is clamed, would be guilty of a violation Of the Sunday law.

SAFE IS STOLEN
 FROM ROPER'S STORE
SUPPOSED THAT NEGRO BOYS CARRIED IT OFF WITH INTEN. TON OF RoBBINe IT BUT WERE FRIGHTENED AWAY.

Juvenile burglars. supposed to have been negroes. took a small safe from Roper's store at East Birmingham, last night about o'clock and carried 1t a distance of over hundred yards with the evident purpose of opening 1t. They were, however, prevented from doing so by negro man who emptied all of the chambers in his revolver at them, but none of the shots took effect The store which was entered was just in front of the Munger gin works.
 Yesterday afternoon a number of ne- gro boys who were in the store are sup posed to have removed the pin which held the cross bar which bolts the door, and thus left the way clear for some one to enter last night. and that the negro boys formed a plot to remove the safe and later open it.
 The sheriff's office was notified and deputies were sent to investigate the matter. They returned without making any arrests. The safe is a small affair. but the would-be burglars experienced some difficulty in removing 1t.

SUNDAY RALLY AT SOUTHSIDE BAPTIST Sunday School Has Enrolment
 of 500 Scholars PLANS FOR NEW BUILDING VIII He for the Sunday School and Will Cost s7ooo-colonsl Bush
 Makes an Address to the
 Congregation.
PLANS FOR NEW BUILDING

The rallies of the Sunday school and church from time to time are always full of interest and the one yesterday morning was exceptionally successful.
 The southslde Baptist Sunday school has an enrolment of about boO which makes 1t the second in numerical strength in Birmingham. Yesterday $50 pupils were in attendance. Yesterday be- ing rally day the class work was lim- Ited to a half hour, and the hour begin- ming was 10 o'clock instead of 9:SO.
 At 1O:S0 the school and the congregation united in the auditorium of the building and a service of song, devotional exer- cises and addresses was conducted under the leadship of T. H. Johnston, the Sun day school superintendent. Miss Annie Williams. superintendent of the primary department. had charge of the music. The singing of the children was supple mented by the singing of the regular church choir and the congregation. MT. Johnston addressed the audience and Col. T. G. Bush, chairman of the building committee charged with the work of erecting a Sunday school annex. made a speech He told of the plans for the new structure and said that bids would be called for at once and contract let very soon.
 The Rev. Dr. A. c. Davidson. pastor of the church. made 8 few remarks, and the talks stirred up great enthusiasm. and resulted in renewed life for the Southslde Baptist church.
 The Sunday school has outgrown the present quarters, and the new building. which is to go up on Avenue F, In rear of the church, is regarded as an absolute necessity. It Is to be two stories above the basement, and will cost about S7o00. The lot which the congregation owns on Twentieth street, at the side of the church, is being reserved for an institu- tional building. With it's various projects carried out, the Southside Baptist church will be one of the best equipped religious organizations in the south.

GERMAN CHURCH
 IS DEDICATED
EDlFIcE IS AT CORNER AVENUE B AND NINETEENTH STREET. SERVICE BY THE REV. E. B. SHElBS.

The new church of the German Evan gelical Lutheran Zion congregation was dedicated yesterday, both of the services being well attended, and great interest shown. The church is situated on Avenue and Nineteenth street, and was only recently finished
 Special services were held in the morn ing and the evening. The frsr was con- ducted by the Rev. B. B. Sheibe the first regular pastor of the congregation, which was organized over fifteen years ago. The evening services were conducted by the Rev. w. G. Hussman of New Decatur. They were held at 7:30 o'clock.
 The congregation was organized July s1, 1887, the first sermon being preached by the Rev. MT. Burkhart, at that time of Garden City. He preached twice a month for several months until the church was sufficiently strong to call the Rev. MT. Sheibe as the regular pastor. He served a number of years. but was finally com pelled to leave on account of i'll health.
 The church is now very much stronger than 1t ever has been in it's history, and its future looks bright.

CITY ITEMS.

Commission to Meet.-A meeting of the police commission will be held Tuesday night, and it is probable the matter of selecting successor to the late commissioner James Scott will come up. Repeated efforts have been made to get a quorum to elect the successor but all have failed, and it seems as if there will be no election. The commission transacts business until the regular order calls for the election of the successor, then enough leave to break the quorum.
 Reception Tomorrow.-The Brandon Light Artillery will give a reception tomorrow night in the National Guard Armory in the city hall. A number of invitations have been issued and the affair promises to be very pleas ant. The former reception of the bat tery was evidence that it could enter tain royalty, and those invited for to- morrow night expect an equally pleas. ant evening.

IF
 STRIKE PROBABLE Nothing Definite Said But This
 Idea Prevails NO CHANGE IN SITUATION Tennessee Officials Claim That About Seventy Men Are at Work at Johns-Mlners Leader Says
 Sixteen.
NO CHANGE IN SITUATION

There was nothing new in the local strike situation yesterday. About 42OO of the Tennessee Coal Iron and Railroad company's miners are Idle and no at tempt has been made to operate any of the company's mines since the men in the Blocton and Blue Creek divisions were called out except at Johns.
 The Tennessee officials do not give out any definite information as to the num- Der of men that are working at Johns. but 1t was said a few days ago that something like sixty or seventy were employed there. District President Ed Flynn of the United Mine Workers stated yesterday afternoon, however, that the entire number did not exceed six teen. He was at Johns Friday and he said he heard from there Saturday. No disorder of any kind has occurred.
 Mir. Flynn remarked that he had an idea that the United Mine Workers strike on the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company would not last much longer. Nc overtures are being made, and no fresh conference is in sight. The Tennessee of ficials protest that they cannot recede from their position on the question at is- sue namely the deduction of the s1 as- easements for the anthracite strikers without signed warrants. and Mir. Flynn and the executive board of the United Mine Workers maintain their position as firmly as ever. Yet somehow it is thought that in view of the fact that the Sloss- Sheffield Steel and Iron company and the United Mine Workers agreed to find way over the technical points that had been raised, the Tennessee company and the miners organization will be able to get together soon
