 A New ReguIatten.
 Had you noticed that the Montgom- cry Traction Company has adopted new ruie for the stopping of cars at the corner of South Lawrenre Street and Dexter. Avenue2 asked 2 citizen dent the other day when car broke loose and ran down Lawrence Street, the company does not allow any or It's southbound cars on Lawrence street 10 stop at the government building corner. They stop and take on passengers on the switch just q few paees aooVe the corner.
 number of angry people of late. Tho greater per cent of the population nave not caught on to the new wrinkle ana the only way they have been informed is by experience. The company should have announced this change. Not in- frequently, I have seen as many as dozen passengers waiting. to get on car at the government building cor uer, and what was their surprise to see the car rushing by apparently un noticing them and not giving them chance to board the vehicle. They all start in a run at one time and every body yel1s at the motorman and con- ductor until he yells back that the car Is going to stop on the switch ana, when the passengers do finally see the car come to a full stop breathless they walk leisurely to the platform.
 T saw one well known citizen get on a Highland Avenue car that way night or two ago and I tell you he was mad. He blessed out the motorman. conductor and the street car company. He didn't understand the new regulaS tion." s Se ss s
 Story of the storm.
 A pictorial and literary representa- ton of the terrible West Indian hur- ricane which visited Mobile Bay on September 21 has j9st been Issued by title of Scenes and Stories of the storm" Mir, Holt has printed pamph- let of peculiar and striking interest. yet published portray the destructive fury of the storm. Side by side are placed excellent pictures of points o interest in and around Mobile and pic- lures of the destruction wrought by the storm at those same places. One begins to appreciate the terror of that terrible night in gazing On picture of the wreekage of the destroyed wharves and the wrecked vessels. He can un- derstand the blind fury Of the storm beaten sea when he looks at the pie lures Of the historic 0AQ Gneli tSOad and sees that 1t was totally destroyed and it's site piled high with wreckhge,
 He can understand the horror and terror spent by the people at Coden and Bayou la Batre farther down the bay when the storm swept the sea oven the land with the people cltnging In tree tops to save themselves from the flood which covered the earth to
 The pamphlet is printed on excellent paper and the cuts show at their best The story of the storm with Its many tragic and terrible incidents printed in the pamphlet is one that must interest everybody.
 Representative Gathering.
 eff a visitor from afar should come to Alabama and wish to see a represen- tative gathering of her citizens should point him out to gathering of the Alabama Grand Lodge of Ma sons" said an observant citizen of Montgomery yesterday.
 "p believe that the citizenship of the State and the best citizenship is moro fairly and justly represented by the Grand Lodge than by any other assem- blaze in the State. A meeting of the Legislature and %l Democratic conven- tion brings together a lot of the best men of the State, but the politician, the city politician, the beat politician, or the State politician predominate and q large per cent ol the membership of the Legislature is made up of law yers. Buf the Masons bring into con yention all the professions and the best representatives of the agricultural and commercial interests of the State
 ''Masonry draws men from every walk of life anu itSi essential to meSl- bership Is that the applicant shall be good citizen in every sense of the word. The men who have charge ot the affairs of the subordinate lodges of Alabama are men who are leadlnE l citizens in the communities in which 1 they live So Alabama Is peculiarly and faithfully represented in Grand Lodge gathering"
