years Miss Relen is well known here
as crack shot. and this is not the

down a prize any hunter might well
envy.
She is exceedingly modest about her
prowess with a rifle and disclaims any

Miss Helen has attracted a good deal
of notice among musicians because of

skill.
The new gun club organizing here

REALLY ARE
 SCRAPPING Central American Con- ditions Serious. PASSENGERS GIVE DETAILS The Victorious Nicaraguans Are Pouring Into Honduras. Martial Spirit of Latter is Stimulated by Bugie Corps and Fake Mes-

Mobile, March 5 .-The Thacker Line steamer Mercator reached her docks early today from Puerto Cortez, span ish Honduras. with several passen- gers on board direct from the seat of hostilities.
 According to statements or tnese passengers hostilities between Nicara- qua and Spanish Honduras are be- coming more pronounced and the Nic- aragua forces are on Honduras soil in great numbers, making rapid advances and there is fear that Lee Christmas is hemmed in In the oilancho district.
 In Puerto Cortez preparations are being made in event of an attack which is feared, not so much from the NicarSguan land forces as the small navy of that country. The navy Of Honduras is constituted in one small gunboat. the Tatumbla, now at Cor tez. In the words of passengers ar~ irving this gunboat Is In good condt- tion for service. but as for fighting even the Honduras government mas it's doubts, so long has 1t been since her guns were used, and which at best are not very effective.
 What Honduras now fears more than her war with Nicaragua" said q passenger of the Mercator, "is internal troubles. A revolution among Its own people Is threatened and in fact there are signs of revolt on every side. The government has very novel manner of keeping the Hondurian minds filled with war and at the same time divert their thoughts from revolution.
 It is in the way of tho official band --a band of men with drums and bu- gles which parades the streets of Puerto Cortez and other Honduras towns The bug1e Is blown and the citizens stop and the cryer tells of the great success of the Honduran army In it's battles with Nicaraguan forces.

A TRIP TO PANAMA
BIRMINGHAM BOARD OF TRADE
 SENDS COMMITTED.
Fifteen Business Men of Magic City WIII Join Nashville People In stimuIating Trade In
 Canal Zone.

Birmingham, March 5. 5.(Special. D. At a well attended meeting of the Bir- mingham Board of Trade today, a com mittee of fifteen was provided for to arrange for a trip to Panama under the plan promoted by the Nashville Board of Trade to establish business and social relations with the people of the canal zone.
 The board declined to endorse the new police commission bill pending in the legislature, on the grounds that such policy inclined towards politics.
 A committee composed of J. l.. Parker. Roy Mccullough, E. E. Forbes, John W. O. NeilI and J. D. Collins was named to go to Mont gomery tomorrow and seek an amend ment to the general revenue bill. Res- olutions adopted on this subject after quoting that provision in reference to companies selling sewing machines, stoves, ranges, pianos or organs, bug gies, or other vehicles shall pay to the State $100 for each county in which they may sell, says. And whereas, the said provision will practically prohibit wholesale merchants of Alabama from selling said articles in Alabama while representatives from wholesale and re- tail houses out of the State can under the interstate commerce law come and sell said articles, and whereas. said law unjustly discriminates against the home merchant in favor of the non-res ident merchant and is, therefore, un- just to the home merchant.
 Be 1t resolved. that the Board of Trade of Birmingham respectfully pro- test against the passage of such law. and respectfully call upon the rep resentatives in the Legislature, espe- cialiy the representatives from Jeffer- son County, to use every effort in hav- ing eliminated such provision from the proposed revenue bill of the State as being an unjust discrimination against the home merchant in favor of the non- resident merchant. who is not and can ticIes in the different counties of the State, while the home Is practically excluded.
