cat Cripple Creek"

AT Cripple Greek" is the name of E.
J. Carpenters latest success to appear
at the Grand one week with holiday
matinee Christmas afternoon starting
this evening. 1t belongs to the So
called school of realism; that is, it is
d drama of western life with a series
of sensational scenes and incidents
heightened in their effect by pictur-
esque and appropriate scenery. One of
the most effective scenes is of the in
terror of THE Last Dollar" mine and
the discovery of vast pockets of gold
in what was thought to be valueless
property. All the familiar clements,
types and characters that give life and
color to the place are in evidence. Mr..
Carpenter has given the play, as he
does all his productions. a rich and APP
propriate setting and the names of the
members of the company assure a fine
performance.

Nail Mill, Which Was Destroyed By Fire in January, Will Be In Op- eration Again
 May i.

Fnsley. April 6.-(Special) ordinance granting the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company a franchise to build and operate gas mains in the city ol Ensley was put on it's first reading and referred to the street and light com mittee of the city council last night.
 There is no doubt but that the franchise will be granted, perhaps at the next meet ing of the council, and it is announced by the officials of the Birmingham Rail way, Light and Power company that as soon as the franchise is secured the gas mains will be built and the service inaugurated to this city.
 Gas will be furnished both for illumin- ating and fuel purposes. The people of this city have long felt the need of gas and several petitions have gone to the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company asking that the service be ex- tended to this city.
 A large number of the people of Ensley had the advantage of gas for fuel and Illuminating purposes before coming to this city and many of them have found it difficult to accustom themselves to doing without it.
 In speaking of the service this morning an official of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company said that if the franchise is granted the mains will be laid at once and the service inaugurat- ed in the early summer.
 The lines will run along the South Ems ley car line and many people living along this route will get the advantage of the service.

REYNOLDS BROTHERS
EIGHTH ANNIVERSARY
Department Store In Hess Block
Visited by Hundreds Handsome
Souvenirs Presented.

REYNOLDS Brothers celebrated their
eighth anniversary and fall opening
on Saturday. The store was opened
early Saturday morning and crowds
of people visited every department
In the afternoon and evening out-of-
town patrons f1ocked to the store and
the numerous clerks were kept busy
until closing time. Decorations of
small flags, birch bark and gaily-col-
ored autumn leaves were in evidence
in all parts of the store, and on en-
tering, n almost imagined that one
of the large emporiums from the me-
tropolis had been moved to this CITY.
Every oma visitor was given d
beautiful souvenir, which was an ART
calendar, and thermometer combined
For the children the management mad
provided a novelty in the way or a
tin butterfly, which when twlrled IN
the hand would ascend some distance
in the air. In the windows were
beautiful displays of furs, clothlng
and other offerings, and not a detail
had been forgotten by those in charge
to make the anniversary a success.
The anniversary and fall opening
will be continued today and tomor-
row.
Reynolds Brothers deserve much
credit for the successful business en-
terprise at 12S-130 Smith street, and
it is almost safe to say that in the
eight years the store will be al
most triple it's present size.
The store was opened eight years
ago in the Hess building by George
f. Reynolds and Walter E. Hanson.
They were successful from the start,
but received a decided setback in the
fire a few years ago, which totally
destroyed the building. Although all
their stock was burned, another store
was opened in the Runyon building,
100 Smith street. AS soon as the
ruins of the old building had been re-
moved and a new edifice erected
REYNOLDS & Hanson moved back to
their old quarters, with almost dou-
BILE their original stock. Shortly af-
ter Mr.. Hanson decided to close the
partnership, and was succeeded by
Mr.. Reynolds brother, John F. Reyn-
olds. The Reynolds brothers have
worked hard to attain their present
success.
