 THE ELEPHANT
A GREAT IDEA FOR THE YOUNG PEOPLE TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE ZoO-GRAND DUKE SOAP WRAPPERS.

The latest and most novel idea for the boys to raise money for the zoo is to save Grand Duke soap wrappers. They are wort.. one-hslf cent each in cash The Southern Soap company will pay the cash for the wrappers at their place of busi- ness, No. 2213 and 22l5 Morris avenue, and by this method a great deal of money can be raised. This is decidedly the highest grade of launory soap ever sold in Alabama. It is an octagon shaped bar and each wrapper has full instruc- tions regarding the coupon you cut out and bring to the soap comps.ny's office.
 Below is partial list of the merchants handling the soap and they all testify to its merits:
 Tomlin Grocery company, Mackin Bros., J. H. Harrison, Sheppard & Ware, A. c. Scheafer J. W. Scheafer. Lovett Bros, H. J. Copeland. Orr & Roberts, Fowll1es 6S Myatt, Clark Bros. A. Deitline, J. T. ! A--ornton, Olin & Mindle John Fox Sons G Smith company, Ed Thornton, J. b. Davis. J. ". Fain, w. B. Emmonds, c. R. McIntire, H. Smith, O'Rouke & Son, A. D. Walstrom, Grimes Bros, H. P. Childers, L. E. Price, w. D. Lane, Coll lins Grocery company, H. L. Hipp Me Kenna Grocery company, Hagood & Ba- ker, Frank Romeo, w. II. Templeman.
 In addition to giving the one-half cent each for the wrappers on Grand Duke soap, the Southern Soap company will give $500 in cash to the boy or girl who saves the greatest number of soap wrap pers between now and June 15, so they can apply that to the zoo" fund also, or 1t can be used as expense money in making the trip to -,ow York to buy .-.e elephant.

nival enclosure, the great Mundy trained wild animal show will be round. This show represents the largest single col lection of wild animals in the world Here are lions, leopards, partners, pumas and other specimens of the most ferocious an- | imals, all trained to perform the most remarkable feats imaginable. The acts in the animal show are presented in large steel arena, covering something like thirty feet square of space. Among the many special attractions here will be "Schley,' the wrestling lion: Captain Picardo's fight for life'' with Mckinley" the largest and most untamable lion in cap tivity: Mile Vannellas happy family" of performing lions. leopards and jaguars, and a dozen other acts of equal interest
 The old-fashioned country store for the benefit of the Orphans home will be To- cated In Second avenue near Fifteenth street. This is certain to prove one of the big hits of the carnival.
 Birmingham Is ready to receive the Great Mundy Shows and eager to place the stamp of her approval on his efforts to entertain the people. All the shows are said to be positively clean, and Mundy's motto, Morality" floats from every flagstaff above his great collection of car- nival attractions.

will be found lined up in the -order named.
 To the north, in Fifteenth street, will be situated the crystal maze, s1O0O0 att traction of bewilderment mt and fun.
 The Bemirrored Passage.
 In the crystal maze the visitor enters bemirrored passagcway and carefully moves forward. Eacn step that is taken results in an increase in the myriads of animated reflections of himself until con- fusion of the most veritable type takes possession of the mind. In front, behind and on either side are hundreds of per- feet, life-size and living llkenesses of ones self initiating every move that is made until distraction added to confusion results in hopelessness and almost abso- lute helplessness so far as getting out Is concerned.
 The visitor turns to retrace his steps, and nine times out of ten bumps full face Into large plate glass mirror. He turnS in another direction and repeats the ex- perience. At last he is gently led out of the tangled passage ways by one of the guards who are always on hand, and once outside, the humor of the experience appears in such magnined form as to, like as not. cause another immediate visit out of pure curiosity as to whether or not 1t is indeed possible for a life long resident of Birmingham to get hopeless ly lost on a forty foot platform in the very heart of the city.
 Royal Hlppodrome.
 Directly opposite from the Maze, will be located the Royal Hippodrome. This will be the real feature show of the car nival. Here Diavolo will loop the loop, the Muncie Zouaves, seventeen strong, will present their famous drills and demonstrations of military manoevers, the Millman Trio who performs the most remarkable stunts in mid air on a tight wire, the Manguese troup of acrobats will demonstrate the possibilities of tumbling, gymnastics. etc., and the wonderful Francelas will outdo Samson himself with their practical demonstrations of physical culture and feats of tremendous strength; these people are said to be the strongest people in the world and 1t Is claimed that their act is an invariabe signal for uproarous applause.
 Just outside of the Royal Hippodrome enclosure and situated in the center of Second avenue, the 150-foot ladder and small tank of water used by Marvello in his high dive will be placed. This Is one of the free attractions and is the highest dive ever successfully made by living man.

NEW DAM COMPLETED
Flood Gates Closed and River is A gain
Back I'm its Banks.

The Richardson Silk Co. are to be
congratulated on the completion of
the new dam which has been under
construction for several months. 1t
is built of artificial stone or cement
and the foundation and superstructure
have beenso solidly put in that like the
Rocks of Gibralter it would seem inn
pervious to both food and storm.
The contractors, Messrs. W. E.
Tench and Co of Detroit, through
their supervising architect, John Pot
ter, have done nice job, and the wa
ter was turned against it last Monday
night. The company now has a wa
ter head of little better than eight
feet, and the river above the dam has
again assumed its wonted appearance.
In speading of the cost of construct
ing the dam, Mr.. Potter informed our
that the work had cost the
Richardson Silk Co. nearly Sl5, 900.
