SUNDAY CLOSING LAW
COMMITTEE WILL HOLD OPEN SEES. SION TO DISCUSS IT.
MT. GrefI Tel1s the Aldermen He De- sires to submit Amendments and MT. Teaguc is
 yNfllfng.

The merits and demerits of the Teague ordinance which proposes to lower the lid in Montgomery on sun- day and thereby close the saloons. res taurants, club houses and other places where intoxicating liquors are sold. will be discussed at public meeting of the City Councils Committee on Judiciary at a meeting to be held one night in next week, probably Monday night.
 This was determined at meeting of the Judiciary Committee held yes- terday at 12 o'clock in the Council chamber. It was decided that inas- much as the ordinance sought a radi- cal departure in the customs of Mont- gomery that 1t should be considered carefully and that all interested per- sons should be allowed to appear be- fore the committee and express their opinions concerning the measure.
 The meeting of the Judiciary Com- mittee, to which tho ordinance was re- ferred when 1t was introduced by Mayor r-elect Teague two weeks ago, was attended by all members of the committee, Aldermen Gaston Gunter, J K. Jackson, c. P. Mcintyre and W. E. Holloway. It was the first meeting of the committee since the ordinance was introduced and this meeting was called to consider other matters.
 Ben S. Grei1, who operates twenty or more retail whiskey saloons in Mont gomery, and who has tried to assemble the liquor dealers. without success. to organize for the purpose of defeating the passage of the ordinance in its present shape was present at the meeting of the committee. The father of the ordinance, MT. Teague. was also present. but took little part in the dis cussion.
 MT. Greii told the committee that he favored closing the saloons on Sunday, but that he was opposed to the ordi- nance drawn by Mir. Teague. He asked that action on the ordinance be de- fcrred until he could prepare certain amendments which he would request the committee to consider. He spoke of the hardship the ordinance would impose on restaurant keepers in di- vorcing their business from their sa- looms and said that the restaurant men hoped to "get together" and agree on amendments which would be presented to the committee.
 Mir. Teague said he did not want to urge hasty action on the measure. In- deed, he thought it would be better for the ordinance to be considered by all persons interested.
 The committeeman decided then to hold an open meeting ono night in next week and to invite all liquor dealers and others interested in the ordinance to appear and present their views.

A WORKING BRAIN Can be Made Successful on Right Food.

busy man in one of Americas largest watch factories tells how by change of food he gained a clear brain steady nerves and averted mental and physical breakdown. He says:
 T was accustomed all my life to the ordinary diet of the average table. thought that meat potatoes, and other vegetables and fruit were necessary, and that tea, coffee and pastry in moderate quantities were not injurious.
 But I found, in course of time. that my dietary was affecting my health seriously For four years l continued toSrun down. In time my nerves be- came seriously affected. they seemed constantly keyed up to the highest tension, and I became subject to the most violent bilious attacks which used to leave me in q weak and nerv- ous condition for several days. The climax seemed to have been reached a few years ago, when I found myself about as near physical wreck as a man could well be. and live. Physi- clans. tonics and other medicines, visits to the country, etc, etc. were of no avail.
 "In sheer desperation I concluded, a few months ago, to see what effect a diet of Grape Nuts food would have, I had often heard of 1t, but had little hope it would help me. at once cut out all the heavy dishes with the tea and coffee that I had always used and began to eat GrapeNuts with cream and a pinch of salt. Afterwards. I ad- ded fruit. with occasionally an egg beaten up in milk. and entire wheat bread. This has been practically my diet for more than two months.
 T found that with the new diet gained complete relief almost imme- diateIy from all the distress that used 10 follow every meal, my bilious con- dition was speedily regulated and cured, my nerves have grown healthy and steadily-in short my run down constitution has been reconstructed and built up. As to the effect upon my mental powers, have only to point to the fact that I have recently been placed in a responsible position in our establishment where complete concen- tration of mind is reqquired to deal with complicated records and reports, and that I have been enabled to keep my accounts absolutely correct, which my numerous predecessors uniformly Jailed to do.
 T think these things speak volumes In favor of Grape-Nuts food as nerve and brain builder. I ascribe all my improvement. mental and physical, the Tact that I am possessed of steadier nerves clearer brain, a fine appetite. and have gained healthily in weight, to The cutting out of heavy food and the systematic use of Grape-Nuts food" Name given by Postum O., Battle Creek, Mich.

PICKETT SPRINGS CASINO.
John Heisman Comes Back With
 GnOd COmnany.


 Good Company.
 The popularity of John Heisman, who furnished the patrons of the Casino Theatre last summer with the pest stock company ever seen at that mousse, was demonstrated last night when the largest audience of the season filled the Casino to see the opening bill or the Heisman Stock Company, "Niobe. j"
 The play is comedy well known to old theatre goers. and one that has stood the test of ttime. The author has created many complex and amusing situations and 1t is left to the players to make the most of them.
 The company which MT. Heisman has gathered together this summer is probably above the average stock com pany on the road. Miss Dorothy Wal lace, the leading woman, is a stately, pretty woman, and is possessed of good stage appearance and knowledge of acting Miss Ollie Minell, the sou brette, is a pretty, vivacious woman, and judging from her appearance last night is admirably fitted to uphold that end of the company. Joseph Winter, who took the leading male part In "Niobe" did the best he could in all probability, but as comedian he does not rank high. His stage presence Is not good and most of the humor came more from the effect of his lines than from his acting The remainder of the company seemed capable of handling the various parts assigned to them.
 Notwithstanding the fact that some of the members of the cast did not know their lines as well as they should the play went smoothly and the audi ence enjoyed it.
 The specialties. the moving pictures and the illustrated songs pleased and were applauded.
 The electrical dancing act by "The Great Atlantis" was the last thing on the program and it was fortunate that the act was given after the last act of the play as a fuse blew out in the cleo tric connections of the theatre and the vounr woman had to postpone further onerations on account of darkness.
 The bill will be presented again to- night,

 bly, be necessary between the executive
 branch and individual legislators as a preliminary to the execution of Secre-
 tary Roots plan to submit only such
 a treaty or proposal as is reasonably
 certaain to secure the approval of con
 gress. Owing to the fact that but 106
 days remain before the present tariff arrangements with Germany will ex- pire by limitation and be replaced by
 maximum tariff rates on American i'm
 ports, its probable that an attempt will be made immediately to reach a
 modus viyendi or pfovisional arrange ment which shall prevent An open rup- ture or tariff war between the two commercial giant nations 8f America
 and Germany pending the conclusion
 of negotiations for new treaty. Or
 dinarily the executive branch of our
 government is very loatA to enter upon
 such semi-treaty relations because of
 some doubt as to the constitutional
 power of the presldent to do so. But
 in the present instance the Germans
 themselves have pointed out that an-
 other door Is open in the shape of sec
 ton 3 of the Dingley act. This sec
 ton authorizes the abatement of duty by America on several articles largely imported from Germany, namely, ar gols, still wines, vermouth, works of art and certain classes of literature.
 In return Germany has granted the
 United States minimum duties on American goods imported into Ger many. It is this arrangement which Is to be terminated March 1 next. Now one of the German propositions is to provide modus vivendi on the basis of a new arrangement between the two countries under this section, with this difference from the present ar- rangement: that while the American concessions shall remain the same and apply to the same articles above enumerated, Germany instead of granting American minimum tarIf rates on all imports shall limit to cer. tain articles the extension of minimum rates. This is proposed on the theory that the advantages conferred upon the present arrangement are entirely unequal and that Germany can only 0 DoA1AN1 ns Te- stricting the minimum tariff list as applicable to American goods.
 If the executive is willing to accept such a modified arrangement Ger many will suspend the application of the new treaties next March so far as | America is concerned until the senate | pr congress has had an opportuaity to | act. 1t Is realized that there is not sufficient material fin hand on either side for really satisfactory treat. nent of this important subject, hence the German proposition to create a Joint tariff commission to make a .tudy of present and probable future conditions and submit the results in he shape of report to the two gov .nments as a basis for final necotia- lions and the completion of a treaty.
