A THIRD TERM.

I wish to refer to an editorial in the Ledger relative to the terms of the mayors of Birmingham and to correct some of the statements of fact.
 It is true MT. Lane was elected three terms, but before the organization of our city democracy.
 MT. Asbury Thompson was the first mayor nominated by the democratic party, and he served only one term. The follow ing served only "one term and out:
 Thompson, Lane, Fox, Van Hoose and Evans MT. Lane was nominated for his fourth term, and MT. Van Hoose was elected as independent.
 No mayor has been nominated and elected for more than one term except MT. Drennen. He has been the only ex- ception to the rule of "one nomination and election and out
 Have the two terms of Mir. Drennen been so censpicupusly exceptional as to deserve this honor over all of his prede- cessors? Shall the me-honored, safe and conservative rule of democracy against a third term be disregarded?
 Is not the precedent which would be thus established a very dangerous one to haunt us in the future?

number are taught, and unconsciously acquired by the child.
 The kindergarten work of the winter months occupies itself to a great extent with the home-life of the child. The child Is led constantly from the known to the unknown. For instance, 1t knows the furnishing of the home-the chair, bed stead. washstand, table, etc. But it does not know how these objects are made, nor where the material Is obtained to construct them. Many beautiful and in- teresting lessons are deducted and de- yeloped from this. The teacher has oc- casion to speak of the woods, the big strong trees, which must fall to furnish the timber the work of the lumbermen etc. This leads finally to the carpenters s and joiner's occupation.
 Not long ago I found, on visiting one of our kindergartens, that the little ones with their teacher had flown out into the sunshine. l waited and soon saw about forty-fve little tots returning with anil

A False AIarm.

Momentary JOY was felt yesterday by
many citizens on finding under their
front door, or in the mail box a for
midable looking document, purporting
TO be a valuable package-C. o. D. en-
velope containing a collection. Closer
inspection revealed the fact that Byck
Bros, the shoe men. were RESPONSE
BILE for the clever advertisement. For
such it proved to be an announcement
for a sale of summer shoes and OK
ford ties. According to the announce
ment the summer Left overs" are to
be Immediately sold out at way down
prices. There can be no question about
the sales success. Messrs. Byck Bros
know their business. and their shoes
are deservedly popular.

DURING LIVELY AFFRAY
TWO SHOTS WERE FIRED.
Six Arrests Made and Five Men
Heavily Fined.

As a result of a rather lively dis
turbance on the East Side at an early
hour yesterday morning, a few hours
later heavy fines were imposed by
Fecorder Myrick in Police Court
There We're a half dozen individuals,
all rather well known in police cir
cles, engaged in the broil and two pis-
tol shots were fired. 1t was not as
certained who had used the revolver,
and all of those in the party were
made prisoners by Patrolman Laird.
The affray occurred near the fruit
stand of Peter ElioDoulo, on Randolph
and Cleburn streets, and was lively
enough while it lasted. The firing of
the pistol attracted the attention of
the uniformed men in that district and
the party was rounded up in short or
der. ElioDoulo was made defendant,
but was dismissed at the investigation
held by the Recorder. Matte Monahan,
Aggie Odum and Grace Kelly were
each fined $25 or thirty days, and En-
ma Tuten and Vinie Baldwin were each
fined $50 or thirty days. All of the
defendants are white.

FATE OF MACON LODGE
CAUSES SURPRISE HERE.
News of the ReVOkine of Charter
Was Unexpected.

Was Unexpected.
The announcement yesterday of the
action of the Exalted Ruler of the
Grand Lodge OF Elks in revoking the
charter of the lodge Of Elks at Ma
con was a great surprise TO the MEM
bers of the order in Savannah.
The Macon lodge bears the reputa-
ton of being one of the strongest
lodges in the state, and had MEM
bership of several hundred. The club
rooms at the corner of Mulberry and
Second streets are among the finest in
the South. and the hospitality of the
lodge was prOVcrblaL
The trouble causing the action Of the
Exalted Ruler as understood here, was
a difference of opinion of some of the
members on the question of having
cafe and open bar in the Elks Club.
This difference OF opinion has extend
eds over period of several months, and
eliminated when the matter was laid
before the Exalted Ruler. 1t was said
that within the past few months some
of the members of the club violated
the constitution of the order in other
ways than by keeping an open tip
ling house The membership of the
lodge includes the names of the most
prominent men in the Central city,
and no little excitement exists there
over the action of the Exalted ftuler,
as it was never suspected that such
serious action as the revoking of the
charter would be taken.

ONE MASTER PLUMBER
HAS GIVEN IN.
No other Developments in the Strike
of the Plumbers.

w ONhCE IN NAAC m
of the Plumbers.
There were no very important de~el-
opments in the plumbers strike yes
terday beyond the fact that one of the
members of the Master Plumbers As
ISOLATION, w. A. Slauter. decided that
he would .accede to the demands of the
journeymen, and agreed to pay the
wages required.
The Master Plumbers Association in
Guides members representing ten firms
and all of the others are standing out
against the demands made by the jour-
neymen. One of the principal reasons
urged against the compliance with the
demands of the strikers is the fact that
all plumbers are placed on an equal
footing as to wages while the employ
ers desire a scale, and claim that there
should be distinctions made between
workmen of different ability.
The journeymen plumbers say that
they can afford to wait until the mas
ter plumbers decide what to do about
the new figure in wages and that they
must ultimately win. They claim that
the pay up to this time, for work of
journeymen plum bers, has been lower
than in many cities and that there is
no reason why they should not get the
increase desired.

On the 18th of June every depart

visitors, and 400 students in overalls
and laboratory costumes were on duty
illustrating to hundreds of visitors the
actual work of the school, The splen-

The equipment of the textile school
is most elaborate and the regular four
years course with the special two
years course gives a choice to accord
with a students time and purse.
The faculty is chosen specially for
the expert work required and nearly
all of them are specialists.
The school offers different degrees in
engineering and textiles. The fall ses-

joke.
The author of the bill now before
the House of Representatives has de-
clared that these machines interfere
materially with the traffic OF
the farmers: but even this is
not regarded seriously and 1t
is not likely that any trouble
will be taken by the local enthusiasts
to oppose the bill They are certain
that it will die without interference
from outside, as there are certainly
enough members in the House who
understand constitutional law to see
that such a measure would be dls-
eliminating and unlawful.
The legislative bodies in states.

of laws about speed and licenses, and
make rules for turning and passing,

he has for the purpose of getting over

has as many rights as the one who
moves along propelled by the energy
produced by oats or corn.
I'VE are not disposed to worry over
the bill, as it must appeal to all fair
minded men as unwise. as well as I'M
fair and impractical. That the farmers
are incommoded by the passing of an
occasional automobile is doubted, and
if there have been cases when auto
