CLOTHES FOR POLICE
LEGALITY OF ORDNANCE TOPIC OF
 DISCUSSION.
Mayor Teague Says He Did His Duty And Incident Is CIOsed-Meas- ure May Re Tested
 In Courts.

VIII the police uniform ordinance be tested in the courts? VIII any citizen undertake to enJoin the city treasurer from paying out money for the pur- chase of police uniforms on grounds of illegality?
 These are questions which were heard on the streets of Montgomery yesterday, anent the passage of the uniform ordinance by the City Coun- ell Monday night over the veto of Mayor Teague.
 The topic has proven live wire among numerous citizens. not because 1t Is not desired that the police shall have their uniforms, but because the mayor was overridden. While the question was freely discussed and near ly everyone felt convinced that the Mayors contention of the illegality of the ordinance Is correct, still a sem timent to stick to the police depart ment prevails and not one person was found who would volunteer to test the validity of the measure. By some. however. it was thought probable that such a step might be taken.
 It having been hlnted that Mayor Teague mght be instrumental in hav- Ing the ordinance tested. he said to an Advertiser representative that, at the present such was not his intention.
 T have aIready dOne what l nave conceived to be my official duty" he said. "and that Is all.
 It will be remebered that the police uniform ordinance appropriates S1.40e for purchasng uniforms for the mem- bers of the police department exclu- sive of the police chief. The ordi- nance was first adopted by the Coun- cil by an overwhelming vote, two weeks from last Monday night After consulting the city attorney, Mayor Teague decided that the ordinance was Illegal and equivalent to giving the po- Ice more pay. He, therefore. sent a veto message to the Council Monday night. The veto was overridden by a vote of twelve to two. Aldermen Lob man and J. C. Tyson were the only members of the Council who voted to sustain the veto
 Should any legal action be taken by a citizen toward enjoining the opera tion of the ordinance. it will prove in. teresting and such a case would hardly stop short of the Supreme Court. IT such an event. the police would have to do without free uniforms until tho Supreme Court reached & decision.

THE EPISCOPAL oRrHANAeE.
Sister Sarah of Mobile Addresses Mont
 Uonsery WOmun.


 An interesting and important meet ing of the women of St. Johns and the Holy. Comforter Episcopal Churches was held Monday afternoon in the Chapel of St. Johns. when an informal talk was made by Sister Sarah of the Church Home at Mobile. in the interest ot the orphanage at that place. and by Mrs. w c. Pope and Mrs. Frank Stol- ienwerck, who attended the Diocesan Council last week at Selma
 Sister Sarah is Chief Deaconess of the Order of Deaconesses ir Alabama She is also the Chief Deaconesse in charge of the Episcopal Church Home at Mobile. Her object in addressing the Episcopal ladies of Montgomery was to interest them in the Church Home work. The first and most fm- rerative need of the work Jas Sister Sarah explained to her hearers. is the demand of an increased income for the Home.
 She explained that the furds belong ing to the Home are invested in Ala ban1a bonds that mature in July and that when re-invested will decrease the income for the Home work just one third. With this state of affairs fac- ing her. and with the warning of Treasurer A. I. Selden of Mobile. to teke no more children on account of insufficient funds for their support, she Is appealing to the women of every parish in the State to take active steps to come to the rescue.
 The special work of Sister Sarah is the care of orphan children of whom she has now in the home thirty-seven. There are six sisters In charge of the work at the Home The women of the three parishes of Mobile have assured Sister Sarah of their support and in- s4st that no children be turned away, but she does not consider it fair or, just l to the women of Mobile that the en- tire burden be allowed to be assumed bv them. and hers was an earnest ap- peal to the women of Montgomery to help in this most worthy cause.

 - Montsomery station. every new engine house in Montgomery will have been nut into service. To complete the plans as outlined in the beginning for full fire protection in greater Mont eomery, there will remain only to be accomplished the erection of station in Highland Park.
 The North Montgomery engine house is precisely like that at West End, which was commissioned on April l, of this year. For some time 1t has been practically complete but the may or has been waiting on the grading and graveling of Cooper Street. on which the house is located. to order IL put into service. The work Of grad ing has been completed and the gravel ing of the street will be finished by June i. The modern engine house is now being enclosed with q wooden fence.
 Tha station will be put into opera ton with only hose wagon, thus re- uuirfng force of only six men for the present, including a captain hose wagon driver and four pipemen. This comes about by the Tact that the city is at present without an extra steamer Among the new apparatus which has been ordered and Is expect ed to reach here within sixty days, IS q fine steamer, which. it is contem- plated. will be placed at the Scott Street station. and the present engine at Scott Street transferred to North Montgom- cry. When this is done, the North Montgomery force will be increased to fits full auota of eight men by the ad- dition of a driver and an engineer for ths steamer,
