Y. M. c. A. WORK.

Despite the fact that the Young Mems Christian Association people were disap- pointed in not having with thom the speak CT advertised to address their Sunday club yesterday, there was a marked increase in interest Henry Jones, a travelling man out of New Orleans, wired in the morning cancelIng his engagement to speak, but promised to be present next Sunday. The loss of the speaker was well made up, however, by general effort on the part of all Christian men present led by the general secretary. MT. Geis rendered a solo and MT. Stewart travelling man from Baltimore, two solos. The first of MT. Stewards pieces was My Mothers Prayer"
 The remainder of the gospel meeting was taken up in brief testimonies, and in invitation to those unsaved to accept Christ. There were 1S2 men present at this meeting, 73 of whom remained for the fellowship lunch, the largest number which has yet attended this hospitable feature of the Sunday programme After the good things prepared by MT. Bridges, the assistant secretary had been disposed of, the subject: What qualities should be the possession of good wife" was discussed with much interest. Love came first as an important requisite. The men who emphasized that quality made 1t clear that they did not only want the con- trolling interest in their wives love, but all of 1t. Christian character came next. Then common sense, trust. love of home, obediance, helpfufness in financial way. healthy body, ought to be a sympathetic partner in one's life's calling. hopefulness. good cook, have good education, Christian ancestry, and be Christian musician.
 MT. Moorman, state secretary of the Young Mems Christian association, was present at the lunch and made the most important address, in which he summed up the qualities that go to make a good wife, and in very striking manner showed how the church bears the rela- tion of bride to the Savior. During the evening some interesting discussion arose over what qualities wife should not possess. First among these was the spirit of nagging. It was unanimous among all the men present that nagging in a woman could not be tolerated. The society woman. who thought of nothing else but society was severely dealt with Dog fancying women met with little favor. It was the general belief that there were others more acceptable than the matinee girl. All these classes being composed of women, were of course spoken of in the most pleasant way pos sible. It was the lazy woman alone who may be said to have fared badly at the hands of the sterner sex.

It is probable that one of the fire de- partment houses will be discontinued within a few days. owing to the de- crease in the number of men in the de- partment. If one of the houses is dis continued it will be the one opened about three months ago on Third avenue and Fifteenth street.
 With only fifty men, the present num- Der, it is said to be impossible for the department to have six houses, as the work is too heavy on the men at the various places.
 Chief Mullin, owing to the reduction of his force, has discontinued the sending of fireman to each of the theatres for each performance. About a month ago he thought that 1t would be better for the protection of the public in case of fire to have a fireman stationed on the stage of each theatre, and since then he had been detailing men regularly.
 The department is now working only the actual number of regular men whose names appear, on the pay roll There are no extra men. If one of the firemen is sick, or absent for any reason there are

CAUSE OF FAILURE IS NOT YET KNOWN A. B. Baxter & Co, Soon to
 Make Statement HISTORY OF THE CONCERN Perhaps One of the Largest Brokerage comI anles of It's Kind in the
 Country = Hundred and
 Thlrty-five Branches.
HISTORY OF THE CONCERN

M. J. Smallen. local manager for A. B. Baxter & Co., has received no further in- formation concerning the assignment by the firm in New York Saturday. A state ment to that effect was made by MT. Smallen last night
 The cause of the failure Is not known in Birmingham. neither is the loss that has been sustained by the company known.
 Although 1t Is stated that considerable loss has been sustained by the patrons of the compny in Birmingham the amounts individually are said to be com paratively small.
 It Is understood that the company Is to give out a statement from it's headduar- ters in New York Thursday or Friday and until then nothing further than the mere announcement of the assignment will be known. The branch offices have been instructed to furnish reports to the main office immediately.
 A. B. Baxter & Co.,, incorporated, had it's main office at No. s1 Broadway, New York. A. B. Baxter was the president and Felix Lipp the secretary. The com pany was incorporated in 1902. The com pany nau l5O eXcDdnBeS, anu ol lheSe Atlanta was the headquarters for thirty five. The other 100 reported direct to New York.
 In December. 1902 1t was announced that A. B. Baxter & Go. had purchased the entire business of Murphy x Co.,. brokers. Shortly afterwards the last named firm retired from business. The enormous business formerly done by Mur- phy & Go. was transferred to A. B. Bax- ter & Co, and this with the established business of the latter firm, made it pos sibly the largest brokerage concern of it's kind in the country. It was organized by A. B. Baxter. a Pittsburg millionaire. The headauarters of the company were in Pittsburg until about two years ago, when a transfer was made to New York.
 The company had branch offices as far west as Hot Springs. The corporation was not a member of the New York ex- changes but was said to be represented on many out of town exchanges.
 From one source comes the report that Baxter & Co., have been losing on an aver age of $1O,OO0 a day for some time past against the long side of the cotton mar ket.

LAST CHANGE TO PAY.
Voters Who Have Not Paid Poll Tax
 May Pay Today.

Unless the rigistered voters of Jefferson county pay their poll tax by o'clock to- night they will miss the opportunity of participating in the coming democratic primary election April II.
 So far 6700 poll tax receipts have been issued by the tax collector and as the nor nal number is 75OO. 800 citizens will have to pay their poll tax before night that the voting strength of Jefferson county will not be decreased.
 Last Saturday between 800 and 600 men paid their poll tax and it is likely that the full number will have paid by tonight as scores of men wait until the last mo- ment before giving up the necessary sl.5O.
 The various candidates and campaign managers are very anxious over the situ- ation and are doing everything possible to urge the voters to pay their poll tax Nearly all of them believe. however, that fully 1000 men will have secured receipts by tonight when the tax collectors office is closed

"A Prince of Tatters."

The attraction of the Jefferson theatre tonight. tomorrow matinee and tomorrow night will be Al. H. Wilson, the German dialect comedian in his new romantic play, "A Prince of Tatters." This is a tale of Old New York in the year TOO when English governors superseded the Dutch and ruled only by force of arms. The title role is young exile from Aus tria, Prince Hugo Von Reppert (Mr. Will son), soldier of fortune, whose poverty is no check on his effervescent spirit nor his mishaps to ambition. This enjoyable type of German Is peculiarly adaptable to MT. Wilson's talents, even more hap oily than his former success Metz Strobel in ''The Watch on the Rhine.''

 MT. Guerry is making a tour of the southern dioceses in behalf of the semi centennial endowment fund that is being raised for Sewanee. The endowment is being raised by subscription cards, the subscribers agreeing to pay specified sum each year until 1907
 In opening his address at St. Mary's last night Mir Guerry took advantage of the occasion to thank the congregation for the call extended to him from the St. Mary's parish soon after he entered the ministry.
 Mir. Guerry speaks Interestingly of Se- vance. He said: When connected my self with the University of the South in 1881 there were only 25O students enrolled; now there are $50. At that time the uni- versity only had two permanenf build ings; now it has seven permanent struct- ures. In the last decade Sewanee has added to it's endowment fund s29iO00"
 MT. Guerry will address the laity of the Church of the Advent and St. Mary's, and the Sewanee alumni of Birmingham at St. Mary's parish hall, corner of Nine teenth street and Twelfth avenue, south, tonight at o'clock. All friends of the university are invited to be present.

 FIRE ENGINE STATION

no supernumuaries to take his place. At big fire there would not be enough men, it is said, to man all the lines that the steamers in active service could furnish, as it generally requires about four men for each steamer stream. There are five steamers ana each of them furnishes two streams. Ten men are required to act as stokers and engineers for the en- zines and this does not leave any one to drive the relief and supply wagon, or to do any of the dozen other things nec- essary at a fire.
 The department had sixty-three fires last month, which beats every record for the number of fires except for last December, when there were seventy-two fires. The losses for January were about $1OO,OO0, almost as heavy as for the en- tire year of 1903. For this reason the firemen feel that the department should not be cut uown.
 It is probable that the Board of Trade will take the matter up at it's next meet ing, as it has already appointed a com mittee to see if the department could not be enlarged in order that the insurance rates could be lowered.
