A BIT OF THE PANORAMA
 OF GREAT AND GREATER BIRMINGHAM

out of place in Birmingham is the idler. To all the others the city says, Here you will find the quickest and surest reward for your endeavor, no matter what your vocation" Local pride is debt of grat- itude which every citizen owes to Bir- mingham, be he iron master or bod car rier
 SKYSCRAPER POTENCY.
 The construction of the fifteen-story office building and the entrance of the Illinois Central and Mobile and Ohio rail- ways into Birmingham mean a great deal for the growth of the city as dis tributing point. Atlanta is already anx- iously looking to her laurels as the head quarters of the southern agencies of the great houses of the east. With the addi- tional office room which the new sky scraper will afford and the increased rail- way facilities, Birmingham will be in a position to bid on at least equal terms with Atlanta in this respect. And every new agency established here means an incl caae of population of very desirable kind.
 NEW HOTELS PART.
 The completion of the Jefferson hotel will make the hotel facilities of Bir- mingham equal to the requirements of the largest gathering. Conventions of national bodies. industrial. commercial and social invariably result in good to the city in which they are held. The Jeff fereon, which will cost upward of half 8 milton, will be worth many times that ame unt in the benefit which will accrue to Birmingham from it's construction.
 THE EVENNESS OF IT.
 The most striking thing connected with the wonderful development of Birming- ham is the evenness of it. As Birmingham grows in strength she gains in beauty Architects say that their patrons are

here by appointment with Governor

in regard to the request of the gov

they will be able to convince Governor
Hanly that 1t would not be in the in
terest OF the state of Indiana II the
rate demanded by him should be al
lowed by the Central Passenger asso-

raise the average rate from 1.6 cents
a mile to Q cents n mile.

Work on OanaI susncnde,l.

Work on the extension of the reser-
vation canal has been suspended for
the year. All the Indians who have
been doing the excavation work have
been dismissed and things put in
shape for the canal to be used in ths
spring.
The main canal was extended a lit
tie over mile and quarter and a
two-mile lateral built. All this work
has been done by the Indians. There
yet remains some work to be done
by white men to give the extension a
finished appearance.
There will likely be no further i'm
provements on the canal till next fall
when another short extension will be
made. The present works will cover

THE DOG DAYS.
In ths COurse Of Time BIPaus May
Rise In idwinteE.


Rise In AIIdwinteE.
Dog days begin, according 10 the ira
ditlons Of boyhood In certain parts OF
the United States, when the green
scum, algae, begins to appear ON the
surface OF the lakes and rivers. Then
II is supposed to be unsafe to go in
swimming. And 1t Is then that, &c
cordlng to the tradition of many adults
as well as of boys, dogs most frequent
ly go mad. All nations and races OF
civilization apparently have had a pc
riod during the summer known rs dog
days when many maladles were sup
posed to be common. But the madness
of dogs, hydrophobia, was never assOcl-
ated with dog days by the ancients.
Dog days are a rather Indefinite pc
riOd, according to this green scum rule,
but there is disagreement OF authori-
ties as to when dog Gays really do be
gin and end. According to the dictlon-
ary, dog days are part of the year
about the time OF the heliacal rising OF
the dog star, Sirius"-that is, when the
dog star rises in conjunction with the
sun or as nearly in conjunction as may
be observed Various dates from July
TO Aug. 10 have been assigned for
the beginning Of dog days. and they
are given various duratlOns of from
thirty to fifty days.
1t seems to have been from the helia-
cal rising of Sirius that the ancients
most commonly reckOned the dog days
Thus at the present time dog days
would begin July 3 and will end Aug
II. Sirius Is the brightest star in the
heavens, and it was easy to associate
the mutual heat OF the brightest star
and OF the sun with the hottest and
most unkindly period Of the year. Hip
pocrates (450 B. c. declared the dog
days to be the most unhealthy part of
the summer
Dog days are continually dropping
farther back In the calendar. Now
they are twelve days behind the sched-
ule to which they held In the period of
the pharaohs. In time Sirius may rise
in the dead of winter. The Egyptians
maintained that the first indication Of
the rise OF the Nile took place on the
morning Of the longest day. when. as
they said. the sun and Sothls CSlrius)
rose together. They attributed the rise
OF the river entirely to the great heat
generated by this star IN conjuaction
with the sun.
Sirius is situated In the mouth Of the
constellation CAMS Major (the great
dog'1. The Latin name of dog days
was ''dies canieularis," and from this
comes the term ~canicular year"
which was known among the Egyp-
tians and Ethiopians. 1t was computed
from one hellacal rising OF Sirius to
the next and consisted ordinarily OF
1865 days. every fourth year having Sf8
days.-Chicago News.

prevailed here for two hours last
night. The south brick wall OF the
Alexander & Fredenrich building was
blown from two or three small frame
structures. The Alexander & Frieden-

south wall were left standing. The
wall blown down by the storm was

The name "blazeT'' was originally
applied to the bright red uniform OF
the Lady Margaret Boat club of st

characteristic Of the Johnlan blazer
doubtless suggested the name, and as
an expressive slang epithet 1t proved a
