The engagement of Ellery's Royal Ital-

no doubt cause great interest in Mont
gomery's musical circles. 1t is the first
time this splendid musical organization
has been heard in .he South. and its tour
has been a continual ovation.
Last month the band was playing in
the Northwest, and the ST. Paul and Min
neapolis papers were unanimous in it's
praise. In st. Louis the band carried the
city by storm. and both at st. Paul and
st. Louis the citizens demanded a REIN
gagement. In New Orleans the band was
presented with a silken flag by the Fed

OF It's visit while the leaders were ban

Tuesday last The imes-Democrat, in a

most unusual testimonial in newspaper

INSPECT WATER WORKS
co6IrTTEE FROM BEssEMER
COUNCIL IN MONTGOMERY.
Mayor and Three Members Of Alder
; manic Board Investigate Sys-
tenn in This City-6reat
Water System.

Mayor T. T. Huey and the Water Com
mite of Bessemer spent yesterday IN
Montgomery inspecting the city wafer
works property. The Water Commttse
Of the City Council consists OF ). r.
Rogers, Rudolph Weiglin and J. 3. WIN
ter.
The people and the City Council OF Bes-
semer are not satisfied with the service
that IL being rendered by the Bessemer
waterworks, which Is owned by pri-
waite corporation. Thew are face to race
with the same problems and dimcuities
that Montgomery had to meet and over
come some years ago. The Bessemer Of
ficiais are here to see how Montgomery
did 1t.
1t is understood that the Council has
determined to either build plant or
purchase the old one from the company.
Water for Bessemer, under its present
system Is supplied by a lake which Is fed
by springs. The water Is unsatisfactory
and 1t is said that perhaps majority
of the Council Is in favor of boring ar
tesian wells for the waterworks. In view
of all this tho city officials came down
to Montgomery and made careful In
spection of the excellent system OF TINS
city The Bessemer officials were escort
ed on their inspection trip by City Su.
perintendent Cain. They made carefui
investigation of the pumping station and
all other details of the city waterworks
Mayor Joseph met them in the city hall
on their arrival at II a. m. and they
were welcomed to the city.

PIGEON MURDER AND THE LAW.

1t may be desirable to encourage marks
manship in view of possible war.
But the man who murders pigeons
wholesale is not the kind of man who will
go to war. and In any case clay pigeons
answer every purpose. except that they
like to think that their pulling at trig-
ger has shed blood and destroyed life.
There is more cruelty in one pigeon
shooting match than in a thousand cock
lights or dog fights. The law does not
allow dog fights or cock fights. Shoald it
allow pigeon butcherv simply because the
pigeon shots are a little more influential.
little more prosperous than the other
brutes who fight dogs and gamecocks?
The legislators of the State can serve
decency and humanity by passing the
law against brutal pigeon shooting We
feel that they will not neglect the OPP
portunity to do good.-From a Journal
editorial. April 20. 1901.

SMOKING IN CHURCH.
Custom That Prevailed in Dutch and
Spanish Sanctuaries.

Westminster Gazette.
Smoking in church Is Dutch custom.
Dutchmen are such inveterate smokers
that one of them is rarely seen without
his pipe. He finds himself unable to de-
prive himself of the indulgence. even for
the short period Of a church service A
similar practice exists in several churches
In South America. Smoking in churches
In Great Britain Is said to have been pre-
valent at the end of the sixteenth and the
beginning of the seventeenth century.
At one time smoking was carried to
such an excess in Seville Cathedral that
the CHAPTER applied to the Pope for power
TO repress the abuse. Urban VIII yield
ing to their wish, issued bull, which was
promulgated January 80. 1912.
In Wales smoking In church was in.
dulged in as late as 1850. In one church
the communion table stood in the AISLE
and the farmers were in the habit Of put
ting their hats upon it. and when the
service began they lighted their pipes
and smoked. without any thought of ir-
reverence in the act.

The Woman with AM Idea.

Here Is an idea for any ambitious American
woman Of ability who wishes to start in bus-
ness for herself. Nine. Fargo, young
Frenchwoman, found herself without the
means Of support. She started dressmaking.
but not In the ordinary way. Being woman
Of refinement and taste and possessed of a
beautiful figure. she set to work and designed
several exquisite robes fitting them to her
self. These she took to the homes of two
or three rich ladies and offered them for sale
Needless to say, she disposed OF these and
received at once orders for others and from
these others. Soon the fame OF the stylish
little Frenchwoman, who was an artist in
original designs, spread. Among her early
clientele We're several artists from the Opera
Comiuue and the Coincide Franchise. until
today her showrooms are crowded with a po-
lite throng. the large proportion Of which are
Americans.

OF enchanting. bewildered lays.
Thy voice Is heard in all the world
Lasting the hills thy stay
In the silent forest joyous birds
Are ever singing gay songs without words.
And thou dost abide in the waves Of the sea
Golden ECHOES from a golden cline.
Thou Hast whisper for every heart,
Thou canst lead to heights sublime,
For thou dost ring celestial chimes
All, thine alone the perfection of art!
