 "Oh, Judge" she cried, with tears in both her eyes and voice. T jes' come back to Birmin'ham las night and I ain't done nothin' My husban' doan know Ise here ennyhow.''

 Birmingham, August IF. .Dr. J. H. Phillips, Superintendent or Public Schools, City.
 Dear Sir-We beg leave to submit the following report of the school census Tor the city of Birmingham, July, 1905. Tn compliance with suggestion or Mir. J. B. Cunningham, made in the re- port two years ago. we have made test of the alphabetical arrangement or names and found 1t very helpful.
 "The report shows a very satisfactory increase in whites and slight falling or in negroes The latter Is due, we believe, in the first and ninth wards to the clos Ing down of the rolling mill and other industries; In the seventh to the proposed establishment of a 'red light district;' and in the fifth to a clearing of the site for the new union station. The negroes In many of the above cases are moving beyond the corporate limits of the city. Appended to the report are tables and summaries as per your instructions Trusting that the results and arrange ments of data will be satisfactory, we remain, very truly,

FIVE MEN BURNED BY
 PREMATURE EXPLOSION

Three white men and two negroes were more or less badly burned in an explosion on a slagpile at North Birmingham yes- terday morning about 1045 o'clock.
 The people injured are all employed by Robert Vance & Co.,, who have the contract for removing slag from this slag pile for the Seaboard. MT. Vance was badly burned himself, and his son, Edward Vance, was also burned.
 Cornell Walker, a negro, Is the most se- riously burned of the five. MT. Vance Is next and Edward Vance next. J. B. Edney, white man, and J. H. Praytor, a negro were not badly burned.
 None of the five men will die. They are all at Copeland & Berry's infirmary, where they were carried immediately af- ter the accident. Last night it was stated at the hospital that all of the men would probably recover rapidly.
 MT. Vance's injuries consist of burns on his face, arms and legs. They are serious but by no means fatal. He will not loose his eyesight from the burns nor any of his limbs.
 Edward Vance's forearms were very badly burned, and he was also burned on the back and face. His worst in-

juries are on his forearms.
 Walker is burned all over the body. His clothing caught from the flames caused by the explosion and 1t was some time before the flames could be extin- guished and the clothing torn from his body.
 The accident was the result of an ef- fort to tear away ledge of slag. Two attempts to blast the ledge had failed and the hole was driven deeper into the slag. A large amount of powder was poured into the hole before it had been cooled and caused a premature ex- ploson.
 Dr. E. c. Rosemond was summoned, and gave what medical attention was possible The three white men injured were car ried to Copeland &S Berrys infirmary in Green &. Co.'s ambulance, and the negroes were brought to the city on a switch en- zine and taken from that to the hospital in ambulances.
 The Vance company has a contract to furnish slag for the Seaboard and has been at this work for some time. Sev- eral carloads of slag are obtained every day from this slag pile, which is the property of the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron company.

For two hours he argued with her to persuade her to go home. Pauline pleaded with the mayor to let her stay until today. She didn't want to go home. and especially without Henry. The mayor dealt with the child most considerately and finally prevailed upon her to see that the best thing she could do was to go back to her parents. He told her he would get her pass and put her in charge of the conductor and she could be home at midnight
 q don't want to be put in charge of the conductor" said Pauline. Tt makes me feel so little. I'm not baby. I'm mar ried now-I'm woman.''
 Yet for all that, the little child-wife left yesterday afternoon for her home in Ma con. The Mayor sent for her things at the boarding house, and had her put on the 4 o'clock train. This done a telegram was sent to the girls mother advising her that Pauline would arrive in Macon at midnight.

 But I hate to leave Henry" added Pauline, striving vain1y to keep back the tears.
