Wonderland" which was presented az
e Jefferson theatre last night, proved to
a beautiful scenic and costume spec
Gle. The scenery, notably a transforma-
IN and bail scene in the last act, was
n ELABORATE scale that delighted the
and daaAed the eyes. great
~ kof attractive costumes were worn
by the kirls, most of whom were passably
good ldaRing. and the stage ensembles
were handsome to marked degree. Little
Chip and. Mary Marble, both great favor
ties in Birmingham, were cordially re-
ce'ped 35heir individual efforts did much
enliven the piece and contributed in
small degree to the success of the per-
1rrnance, although both stars had rather
kless parts Their personalities and
81 iividual talent alone made the roles
tht essayed interesting.
lslcally, Wonderland" is pleasing,
bus She of the songs leave an impression,
Sc = have a certain airy, evanescent
che that is soon forgotten. The book
is sr stupid than otherwise and the
plot s,frlne hazy. The raison d'etre is not
quite plain. but wonderland" Is worth
seeing on account of its sumptuous colors
and charming costume effects.
A matinee will be given this. afternoon
and another performance tonight.

FAIR BONDS BEING
DELIVERED AT BANK

1t will be remembered that several
weeks ago new Alabama State Fair
association was organized for the pur-
pose of taking over tho properties Of the
old association, paying all the debts and
settling all the business of the old con-
Germ. In order to do so the new or
ganizatlon issued 100000 of first mortgage
bonds which were bought by the mer-
chants and other business men of the
city.
The old association had purchased the
property on the South Ensley car line,
several miles from Birmingham, erected
a number of exhibition buildings, a large
srandstand and built stables and track
which is considered one of the fastest
in the south. In order to do this the
old association went into debt to the ex-
tent of about $4,000, which includes the
price paid for the property.

turned over to the city from the police
department was s4207 included in which Is
S517 worth of stolen property recovered.
The commissioners present were Chair
man Donahue, Parker Phillips, Flies,
Jones, Martin and Brown.
The most important action of the body
was the election of Policeman Murphy
as a detective. It Is remembered that
some time ago the City Council empower
ed the commission to take such action,
1t being shown that an additional plain
clothes man was needed. Since the cleo
ton of Mr. Murphy the detective force
numbers four men, Bodeker, Hamilton,
Patton and the newly elected man. The
force will be divided into two sections,
Bodeker and Hamilton working together
and Patton and Murphy as partners.
Since the resignation of Mr., Mullln,
Officer George Hamilton has fulfilled the
duties of night desk sergeant. The cleo
ton of Mr.. Ennis last night will relieve
him of this additional work. Desk Ser
geant Shirley will be on duty In tho
day and Sergeant Ennis at night.

Matthew Addy & Co.'s Cincinnati re-
port says;
1t is a problem where all the iron Is
coming from that will be wanted this
year. Our facilities for judging are ex-
eellent and our observation Is that there
are inquiries for about five times as much
spot iron as can be supplied. Unless four
ffths Of these inquiries are mere sham
this means that there is a constantly IN
creasing shortage. The tremendous tom
mage of iron now being consumed by
foundries is impressive, and it must be
remembered that even as matters are the
entire capacity of the country is not EN-
gagged. Here and there are serious mold
ers' strikes. or other labor difficulties,
so that on this account many shops are
idle.
There Is not much hope from the south
of relieving the scarcity of iron, Tor they
are having trouble there in getting out
sufficient supply Of raw materials One
of our Birmingham correspondents tells
us that 1t is strange, considering the plen-
tiful natural supply of limestone that
not a furnace company in the district has
beer able to get out what 1t would like.
Coke. too, is in short supply. In the
north, of course, the ore season is draw
ing to an end. The amount brought down
has not been as large as was expected,
and it will make just so much iron and
no more.
Naturally under these circumstances
there has been much talk of importing
iron. But that would not be done in any
large way. In Germany and England
times are prosperous, and their iron mar
kets have been advancing with ours.
Practically every advance in the market
here has been followed by an advance
there. little iron might be brought over
and laid down at tide water on some
thing like a parity with American prices,
but 1t could not be done on any grand
scale, unless the foreign market stops still
or goes back, and our own market goes
still higher.
business during the week has been
heavy-heavier, in fact. than in the pre-
ceding week. Demand is still on the up
grade. Everything obtainable for this year
has been taken up as fast as offered at a
premium. The big buying has been, Of
course, for. 1907 delivery.
Coke is active and large transactions
are numerous.
The railroads In various parts of the
country are suffering from lack of cars.
In the south the car shortage is distress
ing and the furnaces that have to ship
coke from a distance are in sore straits.
