THr Thirty seventh National
Encampment. Grand Army OF the
Republic, which is to be held in
San Faapcisco during the week
commencing August 18TH. 1908. is
destined to become one OF the
most notable gatherings-in point
OF numbers, magnihcence and
splendor--in the history Of Cali
fornia, as we'll as in the annals OF
the fraternity. The people of San
Francisco, and of all California,
fully sppreciating the fact that
these veterans may never again
gather in an eneampment on the
shores Of the Pacific. will exert
every effort to make this encamp-
meut the most memorable one in
the history of the G. A. K. The
railroad rates are the lowest for
that occasion IN the history Of
trans continental traffic, and will
include travelling over either route,
coming and returning. with many
side trips. at nominal cost

The necessary documents were
filed with City Clerk Thompson
last "Wednesday by J w. Sherman
to contest the election OF b.
O'Neil as an alderman in the
third ward. 1t is claimed that
there was an error IN the official
count, and the contest is TO es.
tablish this fact. The board of
alderman is the sole and only
Judge OF the qualifications of its
members, and the method of pro
cedure to determine who is en-.
titled to a seat in that bod, IS sim.
liar to that of a contest case in
congress or the state Legislature.
The new board OF aldermen will
meet for the first time next Mon
day nigh,, but as It is probable
that most of the time will be taken
up with the contest case 1t IS not
likely that any appointment will
ce make at this meeting. Nc
additional contest cases have as
yet been filed with the city clerk.

MONTGOMERY THEATRE.
Record-breaking Audience Saw
 "Peck's Bad Boy.

An audience of women and children that filled the Montgomery Theatre to overfi0wing, saw "Peck's Bad Boy" yes- terday.
 The little ones were prominent and ap- plauded and laughed and enjoyed the per- formance. It was pleasing to the older persons, for it pleased the children.
 The audience was a record breaker for matinee performances and the capacity of the Theatre was taxed. Many persons were turned away from the box offlce
 From the size and enthusiasm of the audience yesterday, it seems that Peck s Bad Boy" has become to the children what Shakespeare and Sheridan are to the grown ups.
 Last night the audience was fairly large but the Theatre appeared empty to one who had seen the matinee audience.
 The company in whose hands the Bad Boy" was interpreted is indifferent. There were some acceptable vaudeville people, but none rose to the standard of actors.
 Maud Monson, who was the Bad Boy," Is a graceful and good looking young per- son, but she failed to assume at any time the characteristics that made Henry Peck famous. Dorothy Sorr. who played Jimmy Duffy. the Bad Boys chum, rose high above Miss Monson in this respect. William Millllxen and Lew Carroll did some funny work in German and Irish character.
 The company carries special scenery and the players were well costumed.

A bin designed to give power and au-- thority to County Boards of Revenue ana Commissioners Courts to create school State. was introduced in the House yes- terday. It gives authority to the Keve- nue Boards to lay ont school districts with the advice of the County Superin- erdent of Educati on. An important pro vision of tht bill is that no township or section, in the laying out of school dis tricts, shhll be without the benefits and privileges of the public schools.
 Two bills introduced in the House yes terday had to do with the payment of the clerical force in the office of the State Auditor. One bill raises the pay of the Land Clerk from q 200 to T,600 annually. A second bill declares that the clerical force of the Auditor shall con- sist of five clerks and 1t provides that the Warrant Clerk, the Chief Clerk and gen. eral bookkeeper shall receive each A, 800 annually. The other clerks are to re- ceive N,2oO annually.
 Hon. M. W. Rushton of Crenshaw in- troduced in the House yesterday a bill to establish more general observance of Sunday in Alabama. MT. Rushton's bill pr ovides more stringent regulations than are contained in existing laws. The bill, however, does not make the operating of railroad trains on Sunday and steamboats Violation Of the law It forbids hunt ing, fishing. gaming. card playing, base ball and football. It is also more strin- gent than the pres mt laws in its defini- tion of what businesses are to be per- mitted on Sunday.
 A large number of legislators left yes- terday for their homes to spend Sunday with their families. It is on these trips that the legislators find the new Consti- tution.. with its prohibition of the use of railroad passes, most embarrassing: During previous Legislatures railroad passes for the legislators could be had for the asking. They were generally used. The member who refused a railroad pass was very rare The new Constitution for bids the use of passes to any legislator but bona fide employees of railroads.
 The regular and legal inspections of all the prisons and guard houses in Alabama, with the exception or the State peniten- tiary, is provided for in bill introduced in the House yesterday by Hon. A. S. two State inspectors of prisons. It de- clares that it shall be the duty of the prison inspectors to visit every jail. guard house and prison in Alabanea at least twice each year.
 The bill providing pay for the subordi- nate employees of the Legislature allowed the House four pages and two messen- gers. The four pages and two messen- sengers have been appointed. The re- appointed Tuesday morning There are large number of applicants for the place. The messengers and pages rank equally and receive the same pay. g per day.
 The work of the Committee on Appro- priatonS of the House is a subject Of general interest to all members of the House. The committee will pass upon some of the most important legislation of the session. The committee is headed
