JOHN DREW TO AID
HILLMAN HOSPITAL
WILL GIVE NET PROCEEDS OF HIS
PERFORMANCE TUESDAY NIGHT
TO THE HosPITAL-TELEGR
RECEIVED YESTERDAY.

John Drew, the well known actor of
society roles, considered the best dressed
man on the American stage, will give the
net proceeds of his performance Tuesday
night at the Jefferson theatre to the Hill
man hospital. A telegram was received
from him yesterday by the lady board OF
managers of the hospital making this
generous offer.
Mr.. Drew will appear in THE Second In
Command" in which he Is said to have
the best part he has ever played. Not
only Is the play said to be very excel
lent but as usual Mr. Drew has a ca
pable cast supporting him. 1t is probable
that the generosity Of Mr.. Drew will
mean several hundred dollars to the hos
pitaL and 1t will materially aid the wom-
en- in their desperate efforts to keep the
doors of the institution open.
AS Is well known the board OF mana
gers issued statement to the public
about week ago that the doors of the
hospital would be closed March II there
was not financial aid. A, mass meeting
was called for last Sunday afternoon in
the First Methodist church, but was post
poned until next Sunday at o'clock.

INTEREST IN RACE
FOR SUPREME COURT
Full List of the Candidates is
Given
SPECULATION ON STRENGTH
Rufus N. Rhodes of jefferson and Ed
ward L. Russell of Mobile Urged for
Selection as Delegates to
National Convention.

For the past few days political talk has
drifted from local county affairs to aues-
lions of state interest and there seems
to be considerable interest manifested in
the race for judges of the supreme court.
A poll of the popular meeting places
around town elicted the information that
very few persons know who are can
didates for election as associate justice of
the supreme court. For chief justice
Thomas N. Mcclellan will have no opposi-
ton. For the benefit of those who do not
know the following list of candidates are
given of which six are to be elected:
]. r. Dowdell of Chambers.
j. r. Tyson of Montgomery.
A. D. Sayre of Montgomery
n. d. benson OF Chambers.
II. C. Selhelmer of Jefferson.
r. B. Kelley of Calhoun.
John c. Anderson of Marengo.
w. w. Callahan of Morgan.
r. t. Simpson of Lauderdale.
w, s. Thorington of Tuscaloosa.
Judge Dowdell and Judge Tyson, the
first two named, are candidates for re-
election.
There is considerable speculation as to
which candidates have the most strength.
but as yet 1T is practically guess work.
Outside of the two justices who are can
didates for reelection men from various
parts of the state seem to think that
n - n
Selheimer of Jefferson will be among the
lucky number.
The friends of Mr.. Selheimer are very
active in his behalf, and 9S per cent of
the Birmingham bar has endorsed him.
He will likely have the solid support of
Jefferson county, and with this big start
it is expected that he will secure the NOM
Ination.
Following the discussion of the cam
paign for the supreme court bench con-
siderable interest has been shown In the
selection of delegates To the national dem
ocratic convention. Alabama Is entitled
to twenty-five delegates two from each
congressional district and four from the
state at large Upto this time candidates
are little scarce. and so far but two
have appeared on the political horizon.
The friends of Edwin L. Russell of Mo-
bile and Rufus N. Rhodes of Birming-
ham are urging that they allow their
names to be used in this connection. They
both have practically consented. and 1t is
very likely that both will be selected.
Mr.. Rhodes will have the support of JEFF
ferson and Mr.. Russell the support of
Mobile. 1t will probably be several weeks
before the district candidates begin to
crop out. The delegates will be selected
by the state convention and many CT
them Will not be brought out until that
time.

STATE OFFERS NEW TESTIMONY
INROLANDT T. SHUGART F1EARINGI
FIRST INSTALLMfNT OF
COLOSSAL VUL CAN HERE

The first shipment of the plaster casts
of Vulcan arrived yesterday morning. 1t
Is now on the Southern railroad side
tracks near Twenty-fourth street. where
it will remain until the contract for the
casting of the iron is signed.
This car, which is thirty-six feet long,
contains the portion of the statue from
the waist to the knee, which weighs
about 5000 pounds. It occupies the entire
car.
The cast seems to be in very fine con-
dition, considering the bad weather
through which it passed and the length
of time 1t was en- route to Birmingham,
1t was eleven days on the fiat car exposed
to the snow, wind and rain, and there are
only one or two places where 1t is at all
damaged. These slight damages will be
quickly remedied by Sculptor Moretti
