CALH0UN-CHAMBERLAIN PU-
 PILS PRESENT TANNING

V Na
 Among the many excellent lines of work of the Calhoun Chamberlain school, is the critical study of Shake- speare Too often in schools the plays of the great dramatist are studied briefly m the English literature class. but it has always been the custom in the Calhoun Chamberlain School tc make this a distinct course, for which the pupils are obliged to prepare as they would for any other lesson. The pupils do not enter this class until they are old enough to appreciate the work to be done, and 1t is not too much to say that the Shakespeare class is ai- ways regarded in the light of pleas ure. as well as study.
 The principals of the school seem to realize the value of the method pur- sued. and think that no course of in- struetion is complete that does not in- oiude broad and thorough knowledge of the work of the great "Bard of Avon" This year the plays studied have been othello. Tanning of the Shrew Hamlet. Lear. Richard III, and Midsunl- mer Nights Dream.
 For some time 1t has been customary for the Shakespeare class to present some one of the plays which they have studied during the year. The value of this to the students Is obvious. By this means they become thoroughly corversant with the words of the great master, and the ease and grace which are required by appearing before the public" are in themselves sufficient gain to warrant such production. And 1t is only just to the students to add that their audiences always give them such warm welcome that 1t Is en-

OPPOSES EIGHT HOUR LAW.

Representative of Carnegie Steel CoIn-
 spany Before Commission.
 Washington, May 22.--A. C. Hayden, representing the Carnegie Steel Com pany, opposed the eight hour bill to- day before the House Committee on labor. He said the enactment of the measure would drive away every large institution now taking government contracts from that field. would turn over the manufacture of the supplies of the government to the small con tractor and would increase the cost of the same to tho government from 12 1-2 to 25 per cent.
 The Carnegie Company. he said at one time made the experiment of changing its factery method from two shifts of men working twelve hours each to three shifts working eight hours The result was that the prod uct of that factory decreased 20 per cent.
 Another decided objection mention ed was, that under the bill as drawn if a laborer should by chance or by design work one or two minutes overtime and the government lnspee- tor should see him and report the case the employer would be subject 10 the penalty provided for violating the law although he might be entirely lnno- cent of any design to do so. More than this, he said, the bill was so drawn that 1t made the inspector the final arbiter The courts could not go back of the report of the inspector

Dangers Incident to Travel Diacussed
 by Physicians.
 Weshin Rton, May 22.--The dangers of infection incident to travel on rail- roads and the proper methods of sani- tation occupied the attention of the national conference of State and Pro- vincfal Boards of Health at today's meeting. One of the principal addresses was by Dr. Milton J. Rosenau of the United States Public Health and Marine Hospital Service.
 He declared that the dangers of con- tact with the sleeping car or coach and their furnishings were not quite as great now as they once were. although, he said. such danger did at all times exist. He particularly inveighed against the wash basins in sleeping cars as we'll as the drinking glasses
 Dr. T. R. Crowder, superintendent or sanitation of the Pullman Company, ex- plained the system of disinfection and sanitation of that company. Every sleeping car. he said. was thoroughly disinfected at least once a month, but cars carrying passengers to the Adiron- dacks, Colorado, Southern California and other points visited by consump- lives. invariably are disinfected at the end of the trip. It was not unusual he said, to disinfect cars several times a week.
 The necessity for greater uniformity in the anti-spitting laws of the several States was discussed by Dr. C. 0. Probst of Columbus, O. He also ualled atten- tion to the care that should be exer- cised by railroads in reflling the water tanks of cars with distilled water in order to avoid the danger of typhoid.
 The conference later appointed a to confer with a committee of railroad sanitary officers with the

You're tired. Hub dear.

He braced himself by a summoning of all his will. Where is he at?" he inquired. ''WhoT" she said. "Charlie?-I don't | know. He's went and left me-went with Spanish Mag. didn't know what I was doing. It was you l was loving all the time" She looked in his face with eyes that bIazed and dilated mag netically.

 "Oh, darling Hub!" she pleaded, while the tears welled up in her eyes, you wouldn't go and leave your little Georgia here-even if only for the old love? Wasn't we once happy, dearest? Wasn't we love-s7" She added in whisper. If you'll stay. I'll make you happier than any man in the world, and nothing shall ever come between you and I again.
 Her breath was hot against his cheek She had drawn him slowly to a chair and now her arms crept about his neck. She knelt at his slde. her lips held dar- ingly up to his own. He felt himself dizzy, intoxicated. Her eyes were holding his gaze with an irresistible power. All the passion of his nature was stealing over his brain. Suddenly his look was coe,. en- trated on a Iocket on her breast. It was open. and In 1t he saW--the face of Charlie Dow.
 From time to time, after dark. the miners went out to listen for Hubbard. Five o'clock and came and passed without a sign or a sound. Suddenly. out of the stiffness of the snow. came a muffled cry.
 "M-a-h--m-a-h"
 They started oddly. From the drifts on the htu came an answer. They rushed from the cabin and ran to the shed.
 "Hey-little Bully Boyr' Here you are, little Bully Boy" they heard in a grooming voice Here's youreDld Hub-here's your fingers" By the light of the lantern they saw Hubbard lying flat In the shed, beside the calf. his fingers in the mouth of the thin little creature.

A cow IN A MINING CAMP

 Hubbard, standing at the opening Of his mine. saw a miniature whirlwiHd whisk a hat from the sage brush be- low on the hill. Immediately there after a young woman arose from rock where she had been sitting to chase af- ter her property. Laughing aloud, the miner ran down the hill and caught the hat.
 well. I swear. I didn't know you was anywheres about, Georgia. he panted; but seen the whirlwind steal this and here I come"
 she coiled her hair on her head. It was wavy hair. brown where 1t started from the scalp. but golden Tor its great CT length 'Where was you:' she an- swered. T didn't see nobody"
 "I was up to the claim, said he. twas you resting here in the brbsh!"
 'I was trying to be alone" <
 "TIuh!" said he. "and I was yearning to see your pretty face.
 She tossed her head impatiently.
 well, don't stand there till you take root and grow she snapped. I've got to get back to camp before it's night"
 They started westward in the brush, she with feverish haste.
 They saw a swarthy man approach ing. He spat away a cigarette, and showed his contempt as he gazed on the work-dusty form of the girls com panion. \
 well. Georgia" he slowly drawled. 'haven't you shook him yet? I should think he'd know that he's rank sucker. Amt he dropped to your work"
 The miners face was crimson as he confronted the -sneering newcomer. Look here, Charlie Dow, my fine gam hn fa ANxTi T. ing undecent remarks about a lady which has promised to be my wife. I see you've got your gun on, but l ain't Youl1 set 1t on the dump, if you're man, for I'm going to give you a thump- ing"
 "Chop off, i'll you." said the gam bier. You ain't worth fighting. You're a squeezed lemon Do you want to know where your last little bar of bull lion went, which you gave to Georgia? Look at that"
 He had hardly flashed the small billet of metal before the miner leaped upon him. The gambler jumped and att tempted to draw his revolver; but the hand of Hubbard was there ahead, and flung it away.
 The girl, up to this, had merely stood there. admiring the gambler. Now she was darting alertly about the strug- gIink two, her countenance intense with concern.
 Thea, like a bolt from the clearest sky, ths butt of the gamblers pistol suddenly descended on the back of Hub bard's head. The girl had dealt him a powerful blow. He dropped on his face. The gambler fell only to his hands and was quickly on his feet He darted at once to the prostrate form.
 No, mol" cried the girl, shuddering Hurry up-git away!' She grasped Dow's hand in her own and dragged to get him off the dump. In the twilight the two hastened together over the trail to Thompson's Bar.

It is stated in the report that the disease continues to spread in this state and that the cases show evidence of a recent outbreak and that there are centers of infection yet to be investi- gated. In some instances the disease has been carried to non-infected points by patients who escaped from the home. The legislature is asked to To- cate all of the points of infection.
 The members of the board suggest that an appeal be made to the federal government to establish a national hospital.

couragement to continue their cus- tom.
 This year the choice fell upon The Tanning of the Shrew," which was rem dered last evening. .:'
 The cast was as follows:
 Yfncentio-Majorie Bruce.
 Baptista. Hattie Kendall Leslie.
 Lucentio-Hazei Leigh Weaver
 Petruchio-E1izabeth Madison Glass.
 Hortensio--Carrie White Bean..
 Tranio and Biondello, servants to

 Katherina. the shrew--Annie Laurie Sparkes.
 Bianca--Mildred cornwell.
 widow--Maree Newman.
 Tailor, Haberdasher and Servants att tending on Baptista and Petruehio.
 The parts were all we'll taken and the young actresses displaded an ease that was astonishing until one remem- bered. that they had been "on the boards" before. The leading roles were played with much Intelligence and skiil and interpretations of the characters were given that could only be the result of careful study and training. Petru- chio's dash and spirit were tempered with such roilicking good nature that the audience entered fully into the tanning process" and his uniaue meth- cd of subduing Rates uncomfortable disposition by holding the mirror up to nature,' won their hearty approval and applause. Too many times the parts of Petruchio. and Katherine are played as though Petruchio were noth- ing but a brute, and Katherine mere vulgar shrew. But these extremes were avoided by the personators. and each role was given the precise shad- ing necessary to bring out the charac- ter. That Kate had loving nature beneath her sarcastic and shrewish outside was cieverly shown in her por- trayal by Miss Annie Laurie Sparkes. The metamorphosis from her explosion of impatient temper in the first scene, to the sweet and gracious nature dis played in the last, was delineated with much power. Her facial expression was excellent, and one saw reflected in her features. all the varying moods which fitted over Kate's impulsive disposition.
 Of the other parts, Blanca was play ed with much vivacity and grace. and if space permitted. Baptfsta, Tramo and Grumnia were worthy of special mem ton, so exceiiently were the roles giv- en. The rival lovers. Hortensio and Lucentio, were presented with spirit and ease and the parts of Biondello and Curtis were given in a more than cred- itable manner.
 Altogether. the production was far above that usually given in a school, and gave clear evidence of good train ing, and conscientious, Intelligent work on the part of the young actresses.

OF MISS AMANDA MOORE.


 Helen Pittkin in The New Orleans Times-Democrat has the following to say of brilliant young Alabama wo- man:
 Miss Amanda Moore, whose brilliant work in Chat. Mobile print which like grippe. comes and goes with the win- ter season. has given her prominence in the writing world, is pictured in- adequately on this page Chat came up like mushroom in a night. being sprung upon the Mobile social world without warning. full of Quips and quizzes. excorating foibles and sooth- ing innocent frailties. Miss Ethel Hodgson. another popular girl of Mo- hiIe. eollaborated with Miss Moore for. three years and in Miss Moore's own way of telling it. she went it alone for two. seasons" No one could de- scribe an event more spiclly; never before was a tea party or card club meeting described with zest and ab- sorbing wit. Folk who never look into, society column read avidlv the ac- counts of Mobiles doings, simply be- cause they were as worth while as Fable in Slang or a dissertation by Doolav. But Miss Moore is a literary philanderer and she smothered her jocose proclivity this winter and took up writing for Town and Country and recently that management has put her in charge of the department of the whole Southern country. Two visitors syne she evolved a little book. Tabu- lated Times, which had boom; 1t was done in good style with laugh on every page. Miss Moore is a native Mobilian, the daughter of Col. Ritten- house Moore. Her mother was a Miss Randolph, who, though born fin Ala bama, Is a member of the Randolph family of Virginia. After finishing school where her irrepressIble wit and fluent literary style gained her early honors, this interesting girl travelled abroad for about a year when she made her debut into society. She has al- ways been popular in her home city and elsewhere when she has gone a-visiting, and has had enough to do. really to keep even with her populari- ty along all the lines of her talent There Is no earthly reason why Aman- da Moore should scrible, save that scribbling is an accursed gift that fn- sistently urges expression. Miss Moore realized this in her teens. help- ing her sister, Mrs. Thomas. with a magazine called The Social Season. pub lished in Atlanta, modelled after Chat. and she has done golf articles for the Golf Magazine published by the liar pers, being a devotee of that sport. She is an outdoor girl. for that matter, is a regular habitue of the Mobile Country Club and gives much time to yachting, automobiling, golf, tennis and dancing. After awhile she will do something. ex- cellent and permanent in tho writing way. not because she has vaulting am- hition. but because of that insisting 1 talent.
