BARROOMS MUST
 BE OPEN 10 VIEW
COUNCIL OF PHENlx CITY PASSES ORDINANCE FORBlDDlNG THE USE OF SCREENS, CURTAINS OR ANY OPAQUE SUBSTANCE.

Phenix City, March Especial )-As open to the public view as any dry goods or grocery store in the town will be the barrooms of Phenix City from now on under an ordinance adopted by the town council last night The ordinance for bids the use of screens. doors, piled-up boxes or even painted glass, the idea be- ing to give a clear, uninterrupted view of the entire length of the saloon from the street.
 Painted glass was mentioned because In some saloons, in the summer time, the upper portion of the window is opened to let in air, while the painted glass of the lower sash prevents one from sec ing into the barroom. The ordinance was adopted unanimously, without discussion, although 1t had been reported that the saloon men would oppose it.
 Opelika has such an ordinance, and it was from observation of the workings of that ordinance that the Phenix City saloons derived their idea. It is claimed that this will prevent dsreputable crowds loafing about barrooms. A number of saloonists favored the plan

NO. 8 FURNACE MAY
 SOON BE STARTED
PLANT OF TENNESSEE COAL, IRON AND RAILWAY COMPANY AT ENSLEY WILL PROBABLY RE- SUME AT EARLY DATE.

Ensley, March 15.-(Special.) )-The indi- cations are that No. furnace of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad com pany, that has been closed down for re- pairs since October, will be relighted within the next few days. Wood is be- ing hauled and all the different depart ments are being made ready for re- sumption. All the connections are being made and the blowing engines are being put in shape.
 Since the plant closed down about five months ago it has been thoroughly reno vated and overhauled.
 Lecture Pleases Large Crowd.
 The Rev. Marvin Hefin delivered his lecture at the Ensley opera house to- night to a very large audience. MT. lief lin took for his subject. "The Passing of the Old and the Coming of the New" For over an hour the speaker held his hearers by his eloquence and oratory. He also told several good jokes that kept the audience laughing half the time.
 Several musical selections were rem dered by the quartette, composed of MT. Hefiin, Dr. w. T. West, Sidney Vaughn and Fred Priestley.
 The lecture was given under the au- siees of the First Methodist church.
 Will Be Decided Tomorrow.
 At a conference tomorrow the differences between the officials of the steel plant and workers of the open-hearth furnaces will probably be adjusted.
 For some time this conference has been pending between the employers and the employees. Since the resumption at the steel plant the open hearth workmen have been dissatisfied with the new schedule. Before the mill closed down the men were getting $40 a day and cents a ton. When the plant resumed the wages were cut to $3 per day. It is understood that the men are contending for $3.OO a day and 4 cents a ton.
 In the Police Court.
 The police court docket this morning was unusually heavy. Charles Davis Rob- ert Marshal and Bud Taylor were ar raigned before his honor on charges of committing larceny and were fined $25 and costs each.

 The Knights of Pythias held an interest," ing meeting in their hall tonight The first degree was conferred on four can didates and the second degree on three candidates. The lodge Is in excellent con dition and is gaining strength every week.
 Entertainment for Veterans.

 NEW YORK TODAY
Fire in Crater of Mount SIag
 Will be Rekindled
GOOD PRACTICE YESTERDAY
Coal Barons Are a Little Shy of Old Players, But Will Give the Big Leaguers rne Best They
 Have in the Shop.

The slumbering fires in the crater Of Mount Slag will be reldndled this after noon and once more the baseball world will be happy.
 The New York Giants headed by Muggsy McGraw will meet Tom O'Brien Coal Barons on the battle field of West End and somebody will be shown up. This is the first practice game of the season, and one of the largest crowds ever assembled in Slagtown is expected on hand to see the flag fall. The game will be called at o'clock. All of the Birming- ham players have not yet arrived and consequently the Coal Barons will be slightly crippled. They will give the big leaguers the best they have on the counter, however, and something is liable to happen notwithstanding the handicap.
 Jimmy O'Brien has not yet appeared, but is expected on every train. If he has not arrived by noon Lynch will prob- ably be brought in from the outfield to play the third bag. On account of Harry Vaughan's absence at Auburn, where he Is teaching the young idea how to hit, Wheeler will play first base. While he is not the equal of Vaughan, this Eutaw athlete who Is hired for a pitcher can hit some.

The quality of the light you can

today, pure, white light and plenty
