SUBURBANITES 10 VOTE
COUNCIL PROVIDES POLLING
 PLACES FOR THEM.
New Citizens of Greater Montgomery Are to Participate in Election on Bond Issue on
 May g.

The City Council of Montgomery at It's special meeting last night made pro- vision for participation in the bond elec- ton of May g, by the residents of the suburbs of Greater Montgomery. The provisions are very simple. The voter in the suburbs win go to the same polling place and cast his ballot just as he would in State or county election The ordinance passed by the Council last night merely extended the ward lines out along the beat lines until they reached the city limits.
 The arrangements are only temporary. This was definitely. understood by the Council before 1t would pass the ordi- nance, This understanding was reach cd In view of the'fact that the redistrict- tng and the re-arranging of the wards of the eftyAwith ( suitable representation in the Council, is q thing of the near future
 The question came before the Council In the form of report from, the Re-, districting Committee. This committee Is composed Of Aldermen Kohn. Sullivan. Maddox and Strauss It was discovered some time ago that the residents of the annexed territory had no way of voting In the bond election. They were outside the old city wards and they had no poll ing places. The Redistricting Committee was instructed to draft and report a reso- lution providing a way whereby the suburbanites could vote in the election. This ordinance extending the ward lines out the beat lines to the city limits was introduced by members of the Redistrict- ing Committee and was referred to the same committee for report.
 The report was made last night by Chairman Kohn. The report stated that the committee hoped in the near future to present satisfactory plan for the re- districting of Greater Montgomery with suitable representation in the Council
 Alderman Jackson asked if the ordi- nance just reported was not only tempo rary and Alderman Kohn responded that such was the understanding.
 Alderman Eeague wanted 1t understood that the Council was not committing itself to the proposition that Greater Montgomery should have only six wards with the present representations.
 Alderman Kohn explained that this was the understanding and that the commit tee would in the near future report the permanent redistricting plan. The com mittees report was then adopted and the ordinance was passed by the Council.
 Later in the meeting Alderman Gunter suggested that the Council should name the managers and the inspectors for the bond election. He proposed to ihtroduee and have passed an ordinacs electing these managers and inspectors. He sug- gested that each alderman submit a list of names for managers and inspectors from his ward.
 Alderman Sullivan asked that the mat ter be deferred until next Monday night when a special meeting of the Council should be held. He was. he said unable to make recommendations at that time from his ward and he was satisfied that other aldermen were in the same fix. The matter therefore went over until the next meeting of the Council.

THE JACKSON MEASURE
PROHIBITS GAMBLING HOUSES
 BUT NOT GAMING.
Alderman Explains That He Seeks to Prstect Euchre Games from Interference--Not Re-
 ported to Council.

Alderman J. Kirk Jackson in an inter view yesterday said that the public had an erroneous impression of the ordinance which he introduced at the last meeting of the City Council relative to gaming.
 The ordinance, MT. Jackson claimed. did not leave the city without an ordinance making gaming unlawful. The ordinance did not in the least affect Section 1l22 of the City Code which he said was the most stringent and effective section of the code for the prohibition of gaming. Tn fact" said Alderman Jackson the effect of my ordinance is to SO amend the city code that 1t will not be unlaw- ful for a party of ladies to participate in A game of euchre for a prize. Under the present ordinances a game of euchre for a prize Is unlawful. The ordinance I introduced does not in the least effect the strong restriction of gaming contain ed in Section 1122 of the City Code"
 Section 1122 which remains untouched is as follows:
 Any person who keeps a gambling saloon, or house for gaming, or who keeps or has in his possession any table, cloth, box or other device used for the purpose of gaming, must, on conviction, be fined not less. than one nor more than one hundred dollars.
 7 Section 1123. which 1t is proposed to re- peal is as follows:
 Any person who plays at any game of chance or hazard for money or any other valuable thing. or who in any way aids, abets, countenances or encourages such game, must, on conviction. be fined not less than one nor more than one hum dred dollars
 It will be observed that the purpose of Mr. Jackson is to suppress gambling houses, but not to touch gamblers Sec ton 1122 1t VIII be seen does not prohibit gaming. It simply prohibits the keeping of gambling houses or gaming devices The Jackson ordinance was not reported to the Council last night.

 Tn letter received by friend from Mrs. Dawson she has the following to say of some of the features of the Con gress:
 "The first brilliant social function of the D. A, R. Congress was the official reception at the corcoran Art Gallery. Monday evening Mrs. Fairbanks. Pres ident General D. 4. R.. stood beneath the graceful folds of large United States flag. She was handsomely gown ed in blue panne velvet with her insig- mia of ofice gracefully caught from shoulder. to waist with an elegant dia1 mond brooch.
 Daughters of the American Revolu- ton representing every State in the Union mingled in these spacious %halls and exchanged friendly greetings. The paintings that adorned the walls afford- ed never ending pleasure to the assem- bled guests. The Presidential gallery was always full and those prominent Americans who had at various times held the reins of government seemed to look down with interest upon this patriotic organization.
 ,eon Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock. as the United States Marine Band played the soui-stirring march, My own United States,' the national officers of the D. A. R. were. seated on the. platform erect ed just in front of the spot selected to lay the corner stone of "Memorial Coh- tinental Hall. .

 Am sorry l cannot quote some from her address for you, but the wind was blowing such fierce gale 1t was all we could do to keep our hats on. I could not hear a single complete sentence.
 "In the midst of her address she refer red to laying this corner stone in cline of gentle breezes.' This evoked much laughter and she also smiled at the in- appropriateness of the poetic phrase on this very wintry day.
 -Four prominent Masons came on the platform; one to invoke the blessing of the Supreme Being on this enterprise. two to deposit the articles selected to be placed in the large metal box and the
