RICH ORE
Black Hills & Denver Com
pany Uncovers Iron Worth
$24OO a Ton.

The richest strike of the year, made
in the Boulder park section is reported
by the Black Hills & Denver Gold M. &
M. company. The company owns two
groups in the Phoenix district, each of
nine claims, the Ohio Grant and the B.
H. D., the claims numbered from one
to nine. In the 17O-foot level in B. H.
D. claim No. Z, a vein has been struck
of smelling ore that runs $24OO to the
ton. The vein is two feet wide and is
streaked with tellurium. A shipment
of the rich stuff is being taken out and
will be sent to the smelters within a
few days.
The Black Hills & Denver company
has been operating in Boulder park the
past seven years. Beside sinking shafts
on several of the claims a tunnel has
been run toward the center of the
group. This is in 1900 feet. A fair
sized concentrator has been in the
course of construction for some time.
The plant was not pushed to compile
ton as the ore bodies struck were hard
ly of sufficient size to warrant its oper-
alton. Now that large and rich find
has been made, the concentrator will be
finished with all possible speed. A
large amount of money has been spent
by the Black Hills & Denver people in
Developing their holdings and it would
now appear that they are to be reim-
bursed with large dividends added.

Three shifts were put on at the From
tenac last week and Superintendent
Shoemaker is pushing the work of sink
ing the shaft as fast as possible. This
force will be continued until the connec-
tion is made with the Newhouse tunnel.
In order to reach the big bore, the shaft
will have to be sunk 1400 feet below it's
present depth. It is estimated that it
will require the number of men now at
work almost year to put te shaft down
to the Newhouse. While sinking il be-
ing prosecuted new levels will be run
and by the time the tunnel is reached a
large amount Of development will have
been done.
Lockhart 4 Co., who are working the
Lockhart tunnel in the Twelve Mile Sec
ton, North Clear creek, have a force of
men at work in driving the tunnel. At
present they are in q distance Of Is or
80 feet and have encountered some very
good looking vein matter which assays
we'll. The tunnel will be driven to cut
other veins on Montana hill and IN this
distance they are sure to open up large
bodies Of ore.

FOR REDUCED FARE.
Committees Will Call for 5c Rate To
 EnsIey and Pratt City.

At o'clock this afternoon the Ensley 5-cent fare committees will meet in the Board of Trade rooms, f33-4-5 First Ma tonal bank building. The proposition of approaching the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company officials will be taken up, and the committee will in all probability decide to adjourn to the office of A. II. Ford. president of the company.
 The committees are from the Board of Trade, Commercial club. Pratt City and Ensley, all of which form joint commit tee, of which J. E. Shelby is chairman. The committees were appointed some time ago, and although the proposition they are up against is one that has been tackled time and time again in the past, the members of the committee believe they have some very penetrating ammu- hilton in the shape of facts, which they believe are indisputable.
 In former days it was said that the merchants of Ensley and Pratt City were very much opposed to a reduction from the 10-cent fare and fought 1t bitterly. According to reports received from these two municipalities this opposition has died out completely and the merchants in both places are said to be very much in favor of the 5-cent fare.
 The merchants of Birmingham have been after it for number of years, and the matter has been before the commer- cia1 organizations all along.

PRAISE ENS[EY AND !. BESSEMER FOR WORK
Will Have Surprises For Press League Visitors
CLUB MEETING YESTERDAY
Sub-Committees Report On Efforts Be- ing Made By Local Clubs To
 Show the Visitors
 Good Time.

The feature of yesterdays regular meet ing of the Birmingham Press club was the report on the work being done in Ensley and Bessemer looking to the en- tertainment of the delegates to the Inter- national League convention when they are taken to those cities to look through the various industrial plants.
 Ensley, through the Commercial club, has named a special entertainment com mittee, which has charge of the arrange ments, and among other things big barbecue will be given the visiting writers. The club is going to big expense to make the visit memorable, land far from being routine trip through the steel plant and other industrial plants, the affair will be made a social occasion of moment. While part of the plans are being kept secret in order to surprise the visitors it Is known that some expen- sive souvenirs will be given away, and they will be of such value that the dele- gates will be glad to carry them home.
 The members of the Ensley committee are S. c. King, chairman; Mcqueen Nor rison, l.. G. Smith, w. A. Burgin, and J.. c. Jordan.
 In Bessemer the plans are being made on an equally extensive scale. In addi- tion to luncheon, the citizens out there have arranged with the big pipe works to have some especially large and inter esting work in progress on the day that the visitors come, in order that they may get an idea of the magnitude of some of the casting work that can be done in the Birmingham district. At the local press club meeting yesterday the warmest ap- precaton was expressed for the efforts Ensley and Bessemer are making to as sist in entertaining the two or three hun dred writers of the country who will be in convention here this month.
 At the meeting yesterday John Towers of the Birmingham Times and J. c. De- lacey of the Ensley Sun were elected to membership in the club. Reports were made by the committee chairmen on the progress of the arrangements for the coming convention. William Ryan re- ported that the finauce committee was meeting with success in raising funds for the entertainment; R. W. Ewing re- ported on the work of the programme committee; John Sparrow on that of the publicity committee. and w. $. Gilbert on the work being done in Bessemer J. l.. McRae told of the plans Ensley is making for the barbecue; w. II. Jeffries reported on the arrangements for the big banquet to be given at the Hotel Hill man to the visitors and invited guests, and l.. W. Friedman, as treasurer, told of the condition of the clubs finances, which were pronounced in better condi- tion than ever before.
 A special meeting of the club will be held Saturday afternoon at o'clock.

PARACHUTE BREAKS ANDROMOLA BARELY ESCAPES FROM DEATH Crowd Clasps As Falling Cannon Drops Earthward With
 Terrific Velocity
BY QUICK TURN AER0NAUT SEIZES SECOND PARACHUTE
Saves Himself In Miraculous Fashion When Less Than 200 Feet From the Ground-Surrounde
 By a Crowd.

Ten thousand people saw Romolas nar- row escape from certain death yester- day afternoon.
 The multitude gasped and hold it's breath. For Romola, within the mouth of his cannon, was hurtllng to the earth, with no parachute. to support him. The velocity of the falling man was so great that the eye could hardly follow.
 As the cannon neared the earth, it could be distinctly seen to sway from one side to the other. as a pendulum. Greater grew the path of the sway, until the cannon was seen to turn completely over. Then out of It's mouth, the form of 8 man shot, and soon the emergency parachute was fioated and the man saved The cannon fell to the earth with a crash, and a few seconds later, the dar- ing balloonist alighted on the earth un- scratched.
 Great swarms of people surged about the man who was vertically snatched from death. There he stood as cool and collected as If nothing unusual had hNp- pened. He admitted that he had es- capped close call, but declared that there had been others, only less narrow. He soon busied himself with getting his paraphernalia in shape again. and last night made another flight into the air, having entirely forgotten, to all appear ance, his hair-raising experience of d few hours previous.
 As the majority of people in Birming- ham know, Romolas cannon descent is accomplished by means of two para chutes. He first, while encased in the cannon, cut loose from the balloon, and drifts downward some seven hundred feet, or half his total distance. Then, grasp ing second parachute, he is shot from earth. Yesterday afternoon, however the cannon, through some accident, be- came detached from its parachute. As a consequence. Romola, in the cannon, was sent to earth with great velocity. While falling, the cannot was perpendicular, while naturally, it is horizontal. This made 1t necessary for Romola to cause the cannon to revolve so that he could slip from it's mouth. It required con siderable effort to accomplish this feat, and when Romola was out of the cannon, he was less than 200 feet above the earth Had he been unable to turn the cannon, he would have been smashed be- yond recognition.
 The peoples blood ran cold while Ro- mola was falling, and the shout was deafening when he was seen to escape the death trap. No more sensational scene was ever presented to local audience.

Wo Council Weeting
 WiH Be Held T0night
Petition Passed Around Yesterday Authorizes Mayor Take Certain Actions and Recites That Meeting Should
 Not Be Held Just Now

nine months, and half dozen other such actions as would be taken in council meeting.
 In passing the agreement around, each alderman stated that the agreement would serve for a council meeting, and that in his opinion none should be held. An understanding that no meeting will be held, as well as the paper itself. was agreed to by all the administration alder men, and by Aldermen Hogan, Stockmar. Gregg, Heidt, Fulghum, I<otz, and Bur nett It was carried around by Aldermen Klotz and Estes.
 When presented to O'Neil he refused to sign, on the ground that 1t gave the mayor authority which was more than emergency, and could easily await a coun- cil meeting. However enough signatures were secure to assure the fact that there will be no meeting tonight. The idea is to have three weeks of quiet, allow past actions to simmer down, and in the mean time the hearing of the proceedings brought by President Parker will come up Saturday.
 An alderman stated yesterday that half the Investigations are not over. He is waiting to file charges after tho chair manship of the council is settled.

Arrangements have been com pleted and the officers who keep order i'll Jefferson coupnty as nearly possible as It can be kept will gather at Colonel Hig- dons fruit farm near Arthur station, on the Gate City car line, on Sunday after noon for the enjoyment of what will no doubt be most genial outing

LITTLE GIRL IS
 BURNED TO DEATH
CHILD'S CLOTHING CATCHES FIRE WHILE THE MOTHER IS ABSENT FROM THE ROOM FOR LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES.

While her mother was absent from the room not more than five minutes, little Louise Baggett, the laughter of Mir and Mrs. w. T. Baggett, got too close to the open fireplace in the room where she was playing. and her dress catching on fire burned her fatally. The family lived at Red Hollow, about fifteen miles from Birmingham.
 Mrs. Baggett had just started fire in the room and went out to get more wood. While she was gone the child's clothing caught fire and it is supposed the smoke suffocated her so she could not scream, as no noise was heard. The little girl lived in agony for fifteen hours. but succumbed yesterday morn : ing at 6 o'clock.
 The funeral services will be held at Pinson this morning at 10 o'clock, and the interment will be made in the Pin son cemetery.

BALDWIN STARTS
 TO CITY IN SHIP
Gets as Far as OWenton and Returns To the Fair Grounds-Will Try
 Again Today.

Yesterday about noon. word was tele- phoned from the fair grounds that Cap tain Baldwin in his airship was coming to Birmingham.
 Like magic passed the word throughout the city, and soon aftAr its calculation. people were about the streets gazing into the heavens.
 However, the trip was not made. Cap tain Baldwin nayigated his ship beyond Owenton, but there was forced 10 re- turn, something having become deransed in the mechanism of the machine.
 Captain Baldwin stated last night that he would attempt the trip again today, and he believes that he will be able to make it. The only thing that can prevent. with the exception of accident. IS bad weather and the indications are that the weather will remain good.

RETURN TO WORK.
Two Striking Operators at Western
 Union Again at Keys.

Two of the operators who struck from the Birmingham Western Union office re- turned to work Tuesday morning.
 Manager Williams states that eight of the ten operators who struck at Charles ton, S. C., were taken back into the ser vice Monday morning, also two at Sa vannah Ga., and one at Columbia, s. c. He says that with the exception of few railroad joint offices, that are controlled by the railroad companies, the business of the Western Union company is being handled as usual. In many instances, he claims, they report their ability to give even better service than before the strike occurred.

There will be no council meeting to- night The aldermen have all agreed to call it off. In the words of one we don't want anything to happen similar to that last cyclone. One little turn might have turned that meeting into scene, and we are not going to meet any more until the courts decide.''
 A council meeting was held, practically, yesterday It appears that the peaceful plan works excellently for only ono alder man failed to vote "aye.' and every mos ton carried overwhelmingly.
 An agreement was passed around by certain aldermen, which practically served for, and so thoroughly anticipates a meeting, that it does away with the necessity of coming together. This agree ment is held by the mayor, who declines to give it out, or to say anything about it.
 However, it is learned from reliable source that it indorses certain of his ac- tions. and authorizes him to pay the board of education a certain amount of money, to allow private company to put in A spur railroad track, to give the con tract for the citys printing for the next
