NO CHANGE IN DATE,
BRIGADE ENCAMPMENT WILL BE-
 GIN JULY IS.
Governor Cunningham Declines to Alter Plans as Originally Agreed Upon by the National Guard Officers.

The effort made by a number of mill itary officers to have the date of the |enoampment of the brigade of Alabama u oops changed from July Is to July |21 did not succeed. The encampment will be held in Birmingham on the date named last week by the commit ltee.
 After the selection of the date num- Der of officers took up the matter of a
 change of the date with the Governor.
 At one time 1t looked like the change would be made. It was argued that the time was so short that the local committee In Birmingham would prob ably be unable to get the grounds in req diness. The published announce ment that the grounds had not been se- llected up until Monday night added force to this argument.
 Governor Cunningham was disinclined | to change the date. In fact he inti- mated that there would be no change unless 1t was absolutely necessary. The lGovernor's position was that the com mittee of military officers had unani- lmously named the date for the en- lcampment and that 1t had been an- nounced some time Preparations had lalready begun for the camp and the
 matter having been settled it ought not
 to be re-opened unless 1t was absolute lily necessary.
 | He intimated that he would change
 the date if Gen. Louis V. Clark re-
 commended 1t as necessary for suc-
 cessful encampment. General Clark
 favored the change, but he did not
 make the recommendation that would thave brought 1t and the effort that at
 lone time seemed successful ultimately
 failed. It was the subject of consid- lerable discussion among military men.

BOYS IN STREET FIGHT.
Whites and Blacks in nn Incipient

W ssAA1
 The appearance of patrolmen on the scene prevented a free-for-all fight between about a dozen small negro boys and two white boys at the corner of Monroe and Court Streets about noon yesterday.
 Hary Lyles a 13-year-old white boy, who has figured in police circles. drew a pistol and held the negro boys at bay. He was fiourlshing the weapon when the patrolmen arrived and took Lyles and Hayes Cook. a diminutive negro. to police headquarters. The other boys scattered, but were later summoned as witnesses.
 In the trial before the Recorder 1t developed that the whole trouble be- tween the boys was due to the fact that earlier in the day while a num- Der of negro boys were swimming in the river, Walter Boyd, a white boy, and companion of Lyles, had fired d pistol at the negroes. The negro boys found Lyles and Boyd at the corner of Monroe and Court Streets and were about to avenge the interference at the river, when policemen interposed and brought the incipient race riot to close
 Police Chief Gerald told Alderman Mcintyre. who was presiding over th- police court, that all of the boys were bad ones and deserved no considera- ton at the lands of the law.
 Jackson Parker, a small negro, tes- ti1ed that he advanced on Harry Lyles with an open knife and Alderman Nc Intyre had a case docketed against him. Harry Lyles admitted that he pulled a pistol. but said it was harm less weapon, and Walter Boyd admitted shooting at the negroes in the river. Other boys who testified were Joe Pee ples, Ralph Warren and George Wash ington.
 Now we'll get the truth about this thing" said Chief Gerald when the name of George Washington was called.
 q jes natchully doan know muffin about it." lisped George Washington. and Chief Gerald nodded his head In approval.
 q told you wed get the straight of it." muttered Chief Gerald under his breath.
 Lyles. Cook and Jackson were fined $1 and costs each, and Chief Gerald said 1t was to be regretted that all of the boys were not sent to reform atory.
 It developed during the trial that an organized gang of Montgomery boys. whites and blacks. have rendezvous ten miles down the river known as "Duncan's Eddy" where Chief Gerald says. they take stolen property. He declared that some of the boys in court were members of this gang and should be severely punished.

GINNERs DID NOT MEET,
Not Enough Delegates Arrived to
 Transact RmaineHa.


 Transact Business.
 The Alabama Ginners Association made an unsuccessful attempt to hold a meeting at the Capitol yesterday. A quorum of members was not present and the meeting was called off.
 Only a few members were in the hall of the House of Representatives when the time for the meeting arrived and after an hours wait the crowd was not materially increased. President Hiram Hawkins of Barbour County was not present nor was Secretary and Treasur- CT C. C. Henson of Atlanta, Ga, able to attend the meeting. Mir. Hanson was represented by W. w. Robinson, q well known compress man.
 The intended meeting had been poor ly advertised. It was not generally known that the meeting was to be held and only half dozen or so out of town members were in readine s for the deliberations at the appointed time.
 The Association was organized two years ago in Montgomery. having for its purpose the furthering of the in- terest of the gin owners of the State by united and mutual action. It is com mitted to a number of movements for the improvement of ginning conditions fin the State. It is recognized as a friend of the square bale and the own CT of the square bale ginnery It Is looked upon as an organization to ad- vance the interest of the men who op- crate square bale ginneries and natur- ally of the operators of congresses which press the square bale and are opposed to the advance of the round bale.

 The modern ocean liner is often call ed a floating hotel, and. in fact. in Its resources. the variety of its foods. and the style in which 1t Is furnished the big ship Is fully the equal of the most luxurious land establishments. But the tasks imposed on the ocean kitchen are even more difficult in many respects than those set before the short hotel cuisine. In the first place, most per- sons eat much more at sea than they do on shore; after inhaling the salt breezes on deck for day they find themselves possessed of most astonish- ing appetites. The man who in his rou- tine life on land satisfies himself with rolls and coffee for breakfast unhesi- tatingly orders, fruit, breakfast food, ham and eggs, beefsteak, griddle cakes. toast. jam. and perhaps three or four other dishes when he is afioat. At home he would never think of eating between breakfast and luncheon, but at sea he Is delighted to see the deck stewards distributing the Il o'clock bouillon. heavy luncheon in nowise incapacitates him for enjoying after noon tea, and after the long-course dinner. 1t Is more than likely that be- fore 10 o'clock he will be found again in the saloon ordering a rarebit or some other appetizing dish. Six meals a day sounds preposterous to the average American but an ocean voyage changes the point of view most decidedly. and one comes to accept them on shipboard as quite the regulation thing. Not only
 must this large number of meals be cooked and served, but each of them
 must be prepared separately for the first cabin. the second cabin, and third

Table silver, such as knives. forks and spoons, can be made to retain its new. unscratched look indefinitely by being provided with little chamois cases. in which they can be slipped af- ter being properly washed. These cases are easily made. They take a little time and trouble at first. but last for years and their use becomes 9 habit. Canton or outing flannel may be substituted for the chamois, if pre- ferred.
 Make at least one raffia pillow" says a woman who has several, just to see what comfortable rests they are for piazza or summer cottage. Get sev- eral colors (the reliable colors) and weave the pillow in blocks of color just as you used to weave colored papers when you were a kindergart- ner. and leave fringe at the edges or turn the ends of the raffia in, making 1t plain. Stun the pillow with curled hair and you have a nice cool pillow. and a pretty one"

 Lemonade is like soup." said a chef Tt must stand for some time if the best results are to be obtained from 1t. Tomorrow, for an experiment, buy on the street glass of ready mixed lemonade for two or three cents, and then, in a cafe. buy for fifteen or twen- ty cents a glass of lemonade prepared to your order. I'll wager that the cafe lemonade, for all its slices of pineapple and it's Maraschino cherry, will have nothing like so pleasant a taste as the three-cent drink of the streets.

 Fine voices, it is said. are seldom found in a country where fish or meat diet prevails. Those Italians who eat the most fish (those of Naples and Genoa) have few fine singers among them The sweet voices are found in the Irish women of the country. and not of the towns. Norway Is not a country of singers, because they eat too much fish; but Sweden Is a country of grain and song. The carnivorous birds croak; grain eating birds sing.

MOST PERFECT KITCHEN.
It is to Be Found on the Big Steamers
 of the Ocean.

The Pilgrim.
 The most perfect kitchens in the world, not only in point of neatness, orderliness and economy of space. but av-o in the mechanical apparatus em- ployed, are those of the big ocean lin CTS The degree in which exact and labor-saving machinery Is employed Is a revelation to the most progressive housewife with the most perfectly ap- pointed home on land. In the galley of the Oceanic, for example. there is a clever devise for boiling eggs, con-
 sisting of a compartment for boiling
 water with an electrical attachment by
 means of which the cook regulates the length of time the eggs shall remain in the water. At the expiration of the time for which the indicator is set, an Iautomatic mechanism lifts out the wire basket containing the eggs and depos- li.s if on a table. An electric motor turns lthe spit on which joints are roasted and mechanical attachments regulate the temperature of the various ovens, lkeeping the heat always uniform. on the Baltic. the largest ocean vessel ever huilt. which makes her maiden voyage in June. there are several new elec-

Marcus Braun, special immigration inspector, was passing down the pier in Hoboken after the Deutschland had docked the other day when he recog.. nized a woman who, under the name Of Martha Heur, was deported twelYe years ago. On returning to Europe she went on the stage, and, according to report, made a name as an emotiop- al actress. Now she arrives in me, first cabin, and nobody made any att tempt to prevent her landing. She was down on the passenger lists as Martha Marlow.

 WHERE CONFEDERATE
 FLAG STILL WAVES. Washington Post.
 Down in the Indian Territory" said MT. J. N. saddler. of New Orleans. "the natives still think they are in the Southern Confederacy At least that Is the way 1t looked to me when, by acci- dent. I happened to be a spectator of the Democratic Territorial Convention. held at Durant few days ago. to elect delegates to the St. Louis Convention.
 There were about fifty Confederate flags hung all over the hall, while the solitary emblem of Uncle Sam's Govern ment was so small you could hardly see it; and in order to make 1t less conspicuous, some delegates with an overplus of tarantula juice. furled it.. greatly to the delight of his associ- ates.
 These people are as good patriots as any, and at heart true Americans. They bring out these ancient battle flags periodically from force of habit and not because they are in the least bit disloyal. On the same principle they shriek with delirious frenzy when a brass band played Dixie and want no other tune played"

 IhAN1S THAT DON'1 hhFTENs Boston Transcript.
 Some of the best summer reading we have noticed is a little pamphlet giv- ling an account of a recent meeting of the medical fraternity somewhere abroad at which 1t was decided that most of us are suffering much from lthe diseases that aren't there at all |. In plain English. we are worrying a lot about how much it Is going to hurt to have a tooth pulled as result of the terrible ache that has not come yet but may any day. The pamphlet says that most of us like Mark Twain. look for confirmation of our worst hopes; for fear delayed too long in its con- summation becomes a desperate hope. | As a matter of fact 1t Is much of a question if We give our vacations fair show Russell Sage's belief that vacation is all humbug is but too well founded. We surmise that most of us carry a burden of care to unload on | the~ shoulders of the two or three weeks vacation, that ought theoretic- lally to be a period devoted to recre- ation and the return to nature as ouI best and maturist instincts portray na- Iture to us But we are too prone tc ltake in our pocketbook the doctors summer address. and in our vest pockets the pill boxes that are to be stomached every three hours, be 1t in canoes, or tramp, or links. So many prominent people are all the time breaking dowr that we somehow feel we are not do- ing our duty as progressive Americans unless we get in line ourselves, and so We yank ourselves back from hearty land whole -souled participation in a good time to the search for some symp- tom of our approaching dissolution and If we can't locate some pain. we sit down on the hotel piazza and rock ourselves violently into one. If we can't find the pain, we seem to have lost the real reason for throwing time and money away on just leisure.'

THE VACATION OF A SAGE.

THE VACATION OF A SAGE. In righteous indignation Unspake one Russell Sage, T never called vacation The bogie of the age For. quite to the contrary, The sports of summer I find Are health producing, very. To men of thoughtful mind. "Oft with my faithful beagle At morn I take my bags To hunt the noble eagle Among the city's crags-- That bird whose siren holler Attracts me to the fray, For he is on the dollar,
 And very easy prey. I'm also fond of fishing. If only but to feel Some gilded sucker swishing Beneath my buzzing reel. And by the banks I loiter Where feed the foolish f1ocks That thrive upon the water That trickles from the stocks. How vapid Is vacation
 In dingles picturesque, When constant recreation
 Lies piled up on ones desk. For idleness were shining, In this commercial age. Your outing is my inning,'
