 FOR THE STATE REUNION

At the meeting of Camp Hardee, U. c. V, held yesterday afternoon. plans were started for the entertainment of the Alabama division this fall. The date of the reunion was not determined, al- though committee of three was ap- pointed to settle the time.
 A meeting of the commissioned off cers of the camp was ordered by Com mander Roden for o'clock tomorrow afternoon in his office to name the com mittees which are to have charge of all the arrangements for the reunion. There will be about fifteen committees and it Is urged that all the commissioned off cers of the camp be present in order that the best men may be chosen.
 It was proposed at the meeting that the reunion commence Oct. 2i, but that was objected to as it was thought to conflict with the state fair It is the de- sire of some of the members to have the reunion and the fair held at the same time, but others object seriously, as they claim 1t will crowd the city too much.
 The committee to name the time con- sists of Ex-Governor Joseph F. John ston. w. H. Denson and S. l.. Robert son. They will report to Brigadier Gen eral John ". Bush and he will in return report to General Harrison. commander of the Alabama division.

pin point will turn in the alarm at the telegraph office. Cutting the wires will also turn in a similar alarm. The vault of the Birmingham Trust and Savings company will also be equipped with this system.
 The local office of the Western Union now employees fifteen operators, ten clerks, twenty messengers and has 415 call boxes placed in various parts of the city. The receipts of the local office have more than doubled In the past two years, and 1t Is considered by the company as one of the most important offices in the country. Practically no relay business is done at this office, so that it's business is almost exclusively Birmingham busi- ness

Clowry, president and general manager; ]. c. Barclay, assistant general manager B. Brooks, general superintendent of the eastern and southern divisions; J. M.

CLEAR WATER TO
 FLOW AGAIN SOON
wATERwoRks co. INSTALLING FILTRATION VALVES AND FOR FEW DAYS PUMPING HAS BEEN FROM cAHABA DIRECT.

Clear water will probably be turned in- to the city mains again this morning. of- fieials of the water company stated last night that the work of putting in the new valves connected with the filtration plant would probably be completed during the night unless the rain interferred too. se- riousIy.
 For the past two or three days the wa- ter has been pumped into the mains di- rectly from the Cahaba river, and the excessive rains during the week have made the water of the river unusually muddy. The reservoir from which water usually flows by gravitation to the city holds 15O,0OO,OOO gallons, and since 1t is sulI of clear water now 1t will not be many hours after 1t is turned into the mains until the muddy water will all be forced out of the mains and it's place sup piled with the clear product.
 Thetdemapd on the various. spring wa ters and lithia water companies for the past two days has been enormous. The Water Works company assures Its pa irons that unless something unforeseen happens they will not be again inconven- fenced during the installation of the new filter plant on Shades mountain.

WORK BEING DONE FOR THE Y, M [, A, Old Webb House to be Put in
 Good Condition NEW SECRE TARY IN CHARGE Swimming Pool and a Part of the Gymnasium to Be Constructed. Handsome Association Build.
 ing to Be Erected.
NEW SeCRE TARY IN CHARGE

Within a short while the Y M. c. A. will move into the Webb house on Twen- tieth street, near Fourth avenue, next to the Athletic club. Some improvements are being made in the house at present. so that it will be suitable until large building can be erected
 Some time ago this property was pur- chased by the Y. NJ c. A. and Is now in the hands of the trustees. The house is being painted and other improvements found necessary without a great expendi- ture of money will be made.
 It is on this property that the Y. M. c. A. hopes to erect handsome building costing about $75OOo within the next two or three years. Work will be commenced on 1t when the trustees have money enough in hand. or in sight, to warrant them in letting the contract.
 In the meantime it has been suggested that the rear portion of the new building be erected as soon as possible, This will contain the baths, swimming pool and a portion of the gymnasium. At present the trustees have in hand about $10,O0O, and with a little more added the work on the rear portion could be commenced
 J. P. Jackson, the newly elected secre- tary, has arrived and has taken hold of the work. He will push the subscrip- tlons as fast as possible, and the trustees believe he will be even more successful than was at first hoped
 It has been somewhat hard to raise subscriptions for the Y. M. C. A., althoug nearly ss0,OOO has been subscribed. About two-thirds of this has been spent pur- chasing the present property.

JULY'S WEATHER
 RECORD PECULIAR
MORE THAN THE USUAL QUAN- THY OF RAlN-HEAT WAS NOT INTENSE AND NIGHTS WERE PLEASANT.

July was a record breaker in the weather world. In two ways 1t put past July per formances out of business, and made them look like selling platers."
 In the first place there was more than the usual amount of rain, especially dur ing the latter portion of the month. In four out of the last six days there was rain. and pretty heavy rain at that There was also a stretch of about five bad days from the seventh to the twelfth. In that time something over four inches of rain fell here.
 During the month there was a total of 7:I3 inches, with fifteen partially cloudy days, seven cloudy and only nine clear. On the sixth, eleventh, twenty-fourth, twen- ty-seventh. thirtieth and thirty-hrst there was thunder and lightning in abundance.
 Another way the month was peculiar was in respect to the temperature Throughout the thirty-one days there was none which could compare in heat with some of the days of last July. While the temperature went to 97 on the twenty second, there were not many days which were anything like so hot. The mean maximum was 90 degrees, while the mean minimum was twenty degrees below that The nights were cool and comfortable throughout the month.
 The report last month is the first issued by the new weather maker, W. A. Mitch ell. While he has not received his equip ment for opening his office, he has taken charge of 1t and is attending to all the business and making the calculations.
 It is thought that the new equipment will be here by the fifteenth of this month, and that the new office will be opened about that time.
