BIRMINGHAM AFTER
 LARGE CONVENTIONS
INVITATIONS FROM COMMERCIAL CLUB AND THE CITY TO INTER. NATIONAL MASTER HOUSE PAINTERS AND DECORATORS.

Sam II. Harris, local president of the h. ternatlonal Master House Painters and Decorators. left yesterday over the Lolns- vile and Nashville for Milwaukee to at tend the annual meeting of the national association.
 He was supplied with invitations from the Commercial club the city council and the local organization extending the association a most cordial invitation to hold the next convention n Birmingham. and he hopes to be successful
 MT. Harris stated before leaving that he thought it would be possible to impress the delegates in favor of Birmingham, and that the convection would bring a large number of men to the city.
 The attendance on the annual conven- tions numbers several hundred, and they are all men who make large wages and spend their money lberally, so that if they come to Birmingham it would mean that they would leave something like $7j,O00 or $lC0,GOO behind them.
 Mr Harris was assured Shat everything possible would be done to entertain the Soiifeh'iVh u II coihcs lo hlimlnBnam He hopes to secure the TOT convention should he fail to get the next one.
 This movement is along the declared line of the Commercial club to make Bir- mingham a city of conventions, and the club is sending invitations to every na- tional convention at which loa4. repre- sentatives are present, and it Is believed that at least q dozen will come to Bir- mingham within the next twelve or eigh- teen months.

STILL IN BIRMINGHAM.
Man and Child Who Walked From In
 diana Are at Southern Hotel.

R. NJ Whitloek, who walked from In- dianapolis to Birmingham accompanied by his 9-year-old daughter, Emma, is still in Birmingham looking for work. Chief of Police Wier and the Rev. J. w. Stagg, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, are interesting themselves in his case and they think that they will suc- ceed in getting him a position.
 The father and child are still at the Southern hotel, where they will remain until Mir Whitlock secures employment or leaves the city. Both pr. Stagg and Chief Wier believe that the man is worthy and they will do all in their power for him.
 The walk taken by .his little girl was remarkable in many ways For days at a time she walked twenty miles a day and seemed to show little signs of fla tigue. At night when the father and daughter came to their journeys end she would romp and play with other children. and seemingly was as fresh as any of them.

TREASURER PAYS
 FtAGIN'S SALARY
But Bond is Given for Excess of
 S125 a Month.
CITY ATTORNEYS ADVICE
Judge Feaein Insisted On Drawing at Usual Rate of S24o0 Per Annum. Law Thought to Be Uncon-
 stitutona.

G. C. Engstfeld the city treasurer, has, upon the advice of E. D. Smith, the city attorney, decided to pay Judge N. B. Feagin, of the police court of Blrming- ham, only $l25 a month instead of $2OO a month as formerly.
 This reduction in the police court judges salary is based on the contention that the bill in the legislature i~ ,reasing the judges salary from $l,500 to s2.lO0 was not sufficiently well advertised
 The opinion submitted by the city at torney follows the decisions rendered in the celebrated Wallace case, and in other recent cases testing the constitutionality of the inferior courts
 How the Question Came Up.
 The question came to an issue last Friday afternoon when the judge of the police court appeared at the city treas urer's office to draw his monthly salary. City Treasurer Engstfeld informed Judge Feagin that he could not pay him more than s125 Judge Feagin insisted that he be paid $20O, the amount he had been receiving since the police court judges salary was raised. MT. Engstfeld con ferred with the Mayor on the subject and was referred by the Mayor to the city attorney.
 In response to an inquiry for advice on the subject. City Attorney Smith wrote Mir Engstfed that in his dhe city at torneys) judgment, the city treasurer would not be justified in paying Judge Feagin more than $125 month, and that oft TpHg Feagin more than that amount, the treas urer should insist upon the Judges giv- ing a bond for any amount exceeding that sum.
 Judge Feagin promptly furnished the necessary bond and drew his usual month ly salary of $20o. The judges bond was signed by W. E. Wier chief of police and A. A. GambilL city license and street tax collector.
 The intelligence that the decision had gone against Judge Feagin was on person. al grounds regretted by office holders and public alike. for it was thought that the police court judge should receive at least $20O a month. The feeling among the of ncials was unanimous, however that if the act raising the judges salary was unconstitutional the city treasurer, the Mayor and the city attorney had acted wisely.
 When asked last night whether or not he had anything to say regarding the city attorneys letter on the subject, Judge Feagin said:
 NO. There's nothing to say
 A aft sending n written opinion to the city treasurer, wrote an exhaustive communication on the subject to Judge Feagin.

Few singers who have appeared on the operatic stage have been gifted with such rare tone quail ties as Mrs. Putnam possesses. few seasons ago she sang at two or three reeitals at the Conservatory under MT. Guckenbergers auspices, but with these exceptions she was never heard here in public outside of St. Pauls, notwithstand- ing the fact that she was always in great demand
 MT Friermood, one of Birmingham $ finest singers. will be the solo baritone of the festival
 The festival will he conducted by Phil Memoli, who has organized class Of 60 and an orchestra of 25 professional must clans for the occasion.
