ADJUSTMENTS.
At the jefferson.

The Royal Chef" which appeared at
the Jefferson theatre yesterday afternoon
and last night, was a disappointment,
principally in the fact that there were no
good voices-that is individual voices
There is very little plot to the story
of the Royal Chef" A German named
Heinrich Lemphauser lands on the Island
of Oolong and is forced to serve the
Rajah of the island In the capacity of
royal chef He is the source of much
amusement among the people Of the court
and is a great favorite Of the Rajah. He
Is kidnapped by bandits and rescued by
an American captain and that ends the
show.
The performance taken as whole
was not a satisfactory one. 1t has, how
ever, several good points The chorus is
large one and composed of pretty and
graceful dancers. The songs were at
tractive but the individual voices were
weak. Harry Hermsen, who takes the
part of the Chicago German, is a coined
ian of only mean ability, but his acting
was accepted with rounded applause.
In the way of music. several very pref
ty songs were offered I'm Going Back
to Dear Old Georgia." sung by Miss
Hutchinson and Mr. Clemson, was very
pretty sentimental piece. ITS A Way
They Have in Chicago and I'm the
Morning." by Mr.. Hermsen, were amusing
and acceptably rendered.

ALABAMA MAYORS
TO MEET TOMORROW
HEADS OF CITIES OF SECOND
CLASS WILL ASSEMBLE HERE
TO DISCUSS LEGISLATION ON
MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT.

In answer to a call made several days
ago by Mayor Charles p. Smith of Gads-
den, the Mayors of the cities of Alabama
Of the second class will meet In Birming-
ham tomorrow to consider legislation af-
fecting the municipalities of the state.
1t is understood that the attendance will
be large and It is expected that matters
OF Importance relating to municipal gov
eminent will be considered
A similar meeting of Mayors of the
cities of the first class will be held at
Montgomery next Thursday. and it is
understood that an effort will be made
at the meeting tomorrow to combine the
two conferences, as 1t is argued that pol
icies affecting one class of cities is iden-
teal with those affecting the other and
1t is said that a concert of action will
prove more effective.
The object of the meetings is to frame a
bill to be introduced at the next session
OF the legislature providing for needed
reforms in municipal government.
1t is very likely that the meeting to-
morrow will adjourn to meet with the
conference of Mayors of the first class
at Montgomery next Thursday.
Some of the cities of the second class
that will probably be represented here to-
morrow are as follows: Gadsden, Annis-
ton, Decatur, New Decatur, Sheffield,
Florence, Tuscumbia and Huntsville.

These little ones have to be fed. clothed,
schooled, cared for in sickness and In

underwear, calico or other material for
girls dresses, unbleached cotton, sheet
ing. pillow cases and toweling. Twenty
beds with the necessary bedding are sadly
needed. Whoever will contribute towards
these needs of the Orphans Home at East
