NO CITY PRIMARY
 BEFORE JANUARY
CHAIRMAN JOHN ANTwINE SAYS CITY EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WILL NOT CALL ONE AT PRES ENT-PoLITlcIANs REST.

There will be no city primary held for the nomination of democratic candidates for the various city offices before the first of next year.
 John F. Antwine, chairman of the city executive committee, said yesterday that he knew of no steps that would be taken by the committee or any of the members to have a primary called this year. He said that the members of the committee thought that the people should have a little rest from politics.
 MT. Antwine said further that meet ing of the committee may be called be- fore the first of the year. but he was positive that no action calling an early primary would be taken.
 There are eighteen members of the executive committee. Upon the petition of five members the chairman must issue a call for a meeting. It is understood that five of the mepbers will present a petition for an early meeting, but in case that is done and the .men wanting the meeting held vote for a primary before Christmas, it is said such motion could not carry as the majority are in favor of waiting until after the holidays.

Meeting in Montgomery VIII
 Decide This Question
STATE WANTS MORE MONEY
Henry Badham Would Like to See Operators Work State conVicts in Mines at So Much
 Per Ton.

The conference of the governor, the convict board and such coal operators and other persons as are interested In the employment of convict labor, which will be held in Montgomery today. will be attended by the same operators and representatives of operators as attended the informal conference held last Satur- 6ay, namely, President J. c. Maben of the Sloss- Sheffield company; John P. Tillman, attorney for the Sloss- s-Sheffield; Walker Percy, attorney for the Tennes- see Coal, Iron and Railroad company; Henry L. Badham, president of the Bes- semer Land and Improvement companyi and T. T. Hlllman, Erskine Ramsay and G. B. Mccormack. principal owners Of the Pratt Coal company
 It is the impression of some of the ope- rators that the convict beard will reach a definite conclusion today in regard to the plan of letting out the state con- victs or of utilizing their labor at the expiration, January 1, of the three-year leases of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad company and the Sloss-Shef- field, but one of the men who is familiar with the situation said yesterday that he did not believe that anything mere than a full discussion of all the points at issue would take place at this confer ence. Whatever is done, however, in the way of changing the convict labor system cannot be long delayed, as sev- oral weeks might be necessary on the part of parties to the new contract to arrange for conforming to change.
 Mr.Badham's Views.
 Concerning the two or three plans that were discussed last week. Mir. Badham said last night that he believed the state could profltably turn miner and dig coal for the operators at a schedule of so much per ton, the state to work for the best bidder He would go to Montgomery, he said, prepared to put in good bid. He would like to have all of the state convicts-five or six hundred.
 MT. Badham remarked further that his company would be prepared to build the convict prison for the state and deduct the cost in installments from the amount which would be coming to the state for It's convict labor. He said he would do this construction work between now and January l.
 It is believed that the Pratt company will, like the Bessemer Land and Im-

provement company, be ready to make a good bid.
 Another Plan.
 Another plan that was discussed at the informal conference was on the old lines, except that a higher price than Is now paid for convict labor would be asked, and that the state would exercise more direct control of the convicts. The two companies, the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company and the Sloss- Sheffield, that now work convicts under a lease, feed, clothe and guard the pris- oners and pay the state $14 month for the best workers and smaller rates for inferior workers. Representatives of those companies said yesterday that they were willing to pay the state more and let the state have as close supervision of the conWcts as might be desired. but that they would not enter into contracts for the state to dig coal in their mines. the reason given for this position in the matter being that the convicts working under state management would not use due care In getting out coal; in other words. would not treat the mines well, and make 1t easy for themselves to the great injury of the property.
 The Sloss-Sheffield company works about 200 state convicts and the Tennes- see Coal, Iron and Railroad company about 3O0 Both of these companies work larger forces of county convicts than state and the county convict labor will be in no wise affected by any change.
 It is not believed by operators who vis- ited Montgomery last week that the con- vict board will seriously consider any plan which would have the state lease or develop coal mines and become coal operator. That idea they say is as good as dropped.

The Messenger Boy.

The Messenger Boy.
 Much praise would not rest well on the shoulders of "The Messenger Boy" which was presented to a good-sized au- dience last night at the Jefferson thea Ire. If the object of all musical come dies Is to have a song or air which will make popular hit-and that is what the press agents claim their shows will do- then "rhe Messenger Boy is a failure, for not one of the songs or choruses will live long in the memcry of any of those who sat through the performance last night.
 Costumes, however, have something to do with the success of musical comedy | and "The Messenger Boy has some pretty ones, especially in the last act where the sextette sings "They Are All After Pott," with E. H. O'Connor, who takes the part of MT. Pott in the com edy Mir Pott Is clever in some places and makes a good team mate for Frank Deshon the Messenger Boy. MT Deshon l is decidedly the best of the company, but in the second act he fails completely in his tricks in magic, which if properly executed would have made hit. l Several members of the chorus are good looking and shapely.- They are drilled well and add much to the virtue of sew | eral of the songs by their ability to look pretty and handle freely the dainty fn- eerie bestowed on them. The girls ara 1 the cleverest portion of the show.
 The lines are good in places. MT. De shon has easily the pick of these and uses them well. Other members of the company are not up to their lines. Several of the women with parts have fairly good voices, among them being Mss Ma bel Nixon and Miss Ida Gabrielle.
 Lewis James and Frederick Warde-
 .rhe Tempest" produced by Louis James and Frederick Warde as associate stars in the respective roles of Caliban and Prospero, will be the attraction at the Jefferson at today's matinee and to- night.
 This exquisite comedy, which Is al- most unknown to provincial audiences as an acting play, was last presented by the late Augustin Daly about six years ago. Wagenhals and Kemper, who prob ably lead the van among the producers of Shakespeare at the present time. and who are managing the tour of MT Warde and Mir. James, found much assistance in recalling the particulars of this pro duction when they selected 'The Temp est" for their celebrated stars Among the scenes which have elicited the most comment is that of the great storm where the vessel bearing Antonio and Ferdinana and their court are wrecked on the shores of the enchanted island. From what Is heard of this scene it | would appear that nothing approaching it either in realistic effect or pictorial beauty has ever been attempted before by travelling company This occurs all most at the rise of the curtain. for which reason the audience Is requested to be seated before the beginning of the per- formance.

Food

Food is sometimes in- digeStible though appetiz- ing in appearance; and it is sometimes digeStible when it may not be at- tractiYe to the sight or taste.
 To place before the household or the guest food that is always both appetite-S stimulating and digeStible, that is the trick of the expert cook. That is the perfect food the Food Hungered For.
 Royal Baking Powder is a specific aid to this end. The flavor from a hot Royal Baking Powder biscuit Whets the appetite and the mOrSel itself is delicious to the taste and digeStible and nutritious. Royal Baking Pow der renders Ot-breadSWhOle- some. Food raised with Royal !" tempts the ap- petite," and is also Superlatively' wholesome.
