Some say that ever 'gainst that season
comes
Wherein our Savior's birth is celebrated,
The bird of dawning singeth all night
long;
And then. they say, no spirit dare stir
abroad;
The nights are wholesome; then no
planets strike;
No fairy takes. nor witch hath power
to charm,
So hallow'd and 30 gracious n the time.

CAMP NAMED IN
 HONOR OF LIGON
ARTILLERY OF STATE IN CAMP AT MONTGOMERY = BlRMING- HAM MEN WHO FAILED TO RE- PORT ARE ARRESTED.

Montgomery, July 23.-(Speeial.)- )-At a meeting of the officers of the artillery forces of the state, encamped at Electric Park near here, held this afternoon, the camp was named in honor of Col. R. F. Ligon of the governors staff. It is said that the officers of the Birmingham bat tery suggested the name of Major Ed ward D. Smith for the honor, but later withdrew his name. Major Smith was the first captain and one of the organizers of the Birmingham battery and he is very popular with the military men of the state He is now on the staff of Bri- gadier General Louis V. Clrak.
 A detail from Birmingham, in charge of fourteen members of the battery who failed to report for the annual camp, Is expected to arrive here tomorrow night. The action of Capt. James o. Smith the commanding officer of the battery, in or dering the men placed under arrest and brought to Montgomery Is approved by Major S. T. Westcott. The transporta- ton for the detail was sent to Birming- ham this morning. It was furnished by Quartermaster General Holt upon the re- quisition of Captain Smith.
 The cavalry forces will go into camp tomorrow morning at Pickett Springs. The First regiment of infantry breaks camps at o'clock tomorrow morning.

Does Not Fear Fever.

The citizens of Bessemer do not seem to be in the least alarmed over the yellow fever situation in New Orleans. Of course they accept the quarantine proclamation issued by the governor without special comment, but 1t Is believed that if this proclamation Is amended so as to allow any section In the state to raise the quarantine that Bessemer will be one of the first towns In the state to trow open It's doors to refugees.
 In speaking of the matter tonight May or T. T. Huey said: T have been out of the city all day and know nothing of the feeling among the people, but l am quite sure that Bessemer would refuse to sustain a quarantine against New Or leans or any other place under present conditions.
 Tt seems to me that the quarantine is uncalled for at the present time and even of conditions were more serious than have been reported so far feel confident that this section Is immune from the contagion. So far as I know the people of Bessemer have given the matter no thought whatever l am certain that no official consideration has been given 1t, and l am of the opinion that no action whatever will be taken unless it Is to open our gates If the governors procla- nation Is amended"

 A. Griggs, superintendent of the Ala bama Great Southern q don't see that there Is any danger here We have not had any heavey movement out of New Orleans on our line. We are giving the quarantine officers every assistance, how ever, and will continue to do so.''
 Sterling A. Wood; T am opposed to quarantinlng Birmingham against New Orleans. I do not think yellow fever has any chance here. I believe in Birming ham keeping her gates open
 Frank P. O'Brien: There is, in my opinion. no excuse for Birmingham quar- antining against New Orleans. I am de- eidedly in favor of extending a welcome to all refugees from Louisiana. Yellow fever can never get a start in Birming ham. A few years ago when yellow fever was all around us several cases were brought here from Decatur The patients recovered and no one here caught the disease. People may ask if there was yellow fever in town north of us how did Birmingham escape? That question is easily answered in two ways. In the first place sanitary conditions in Decatur were very bad at that time In the next place the air here is heavily charged with sul phur from the furnace stacks and sulphur seems to eradicate the germs of conta- gious diseases. Birmingham is in excel lent sanitary condition. We should be ex empt without delay from quarantine regu- latiOns

 hardship worked on people in in- stances of this kind is that they have to pay their fares to whatever place in Tennessee they go, and also their fare back to Birmingham when they are al lowed to come back. The state makes no provision for paying the fares of people sent on to past their destination. and the traveller is the loser thereby. In the case of the boy it would have been especially hard. He did not have but 10 cents, according to a statement he made on the train before reaching Bir- mingham. Inspector Toe was prepared. however, to put up the necessary amount to get the boy into Tennessee, had he not escaped.

 A Pullman conductor, who came through Birmingham last night on one of the trains from New Orleans. said that there was no alarm over the situation in New Orleans, and that the people were not paying any attention to it there. "As far as I know from my personal experience there" he said, "the disease does not amount to much now. The people in New Orleans are not paying as much attention to it as are the people in the other cities. understand that arrangements will be made by the railroads that the trainmen will not go any further than Pieayune and not into New Orleans. This is done so that we will not have to be subject to quarantine instituted by other states ''The movement out of New Orleans" continued the conductor, 'has not been any heavier than usual, and I did not bring but six passengers out of the city on my sleeper. They were people who are going to a northern summer resort and did not leave New Orleans on account of any fear of yellow fever"
