Not Ashamed Of His Origin.

Governor johnson, of Mime
sofa, started life as a working lad
who thought it his highest duty
to help support his mother.
Having some advice to give a
young boy several years ago, he
said to him:
"Never be ashamed of your
origin, so long as it is honest.
Where and how you started, how
ever, does not concern the world
so much as what kind ofoa char
acter that start started i'm you.
l hope you see the point. Your
father may have been q ditch
digger, and you, as a boy, carried
bis noon lunch to him. That
never will hurt your chances of
getting on in the world if the
simple act taught you to be
thoughtful of others, and to help
wherever you can,
''Of all the people in the world,
few start at the top. Beginnings
are usually at the bottom, but it is
impossible to advance toward the
top, or attain it, if you have not
character. If you have character,
you will not need a sign post to
proclaim it.. 1t will stick out,
and in whatever profession you
aim to make your mark. those
about you will know that you can
BE- relied upon.
"Cherisb the memories OF boy
hood days, and work to make the
most of all your good qualities.
Better than coin In the pocket is
. reputation for truthfulness,
steadfastness, sobrlety, charitable
ness. Those are the golden COINS
of character that draw interest
through all Of life."

The summary of the monthly bill given does not include incidentals, such as wa ter rent lights, insurance, taxes, church dues and charity offerings. As shown by the table compiled by the committee the expense of living for a policeman and his family for one month Is $S7, whereas the officers are only paid between $65 and $l5 a month.
 Consequently they will present the fol- lowing petition to the council tonight: ITO the Honorable The Mayor and Board
 of Aldermen of the City of Birmingham,
 Alabama:
 "Gentlemen-Wc, the undersigned mem bers of the police force of the city of Birmingham Ala, herewith respectfully beg to submit to you that under the pres ent cost and conditions of proper living in this city, it is not possible for us to live on the salary which Is now being paid to us.
 "We therefore each earnestly request you to take this matter under immediate advisement and to grant such increase In our pay as will be more in accordance with the necessary conditions of living daily confronting us and our families"
 The petition which has been signed by every man on the force, will be referred to the finance committee and that body will report back to the council on the matter at a later meeting. The officers are confident that favorable report will be returned by the committee and expect the council to vote favorably on the re- DOrt

MOVING PICTURE
 MEN IN TROUBLE
City Electrician Orders Most of
 Them Closed
WILL NOT OBEY THE LAW
With Fifteen Days Notice They Have Failed to Make Film Rooms Fire proof-Alowed Three
 Days Grace.

As the result of the passage of an ordl- nance regulating the operation of moving picture theatres by the city council at the last meeting, practically every moving picture show in town was closed yester- day and business will in most cases be suspended for three days at least
 The ordinance passed by the council provided that the operating of machine rooms in the moving picture places should be fire proof and that the inlammable film of the machine be protected by cast iron box, so as not to expose 1t to the fire. The two items are the ones which are giving trouble. According to the statement of w. H. Abernathy, city electrician, the proprietors of the moving picture theatres around town have shown no disposition whatever to comply with the ordinance.
 The ordinance, which Is the same as that in effect in Atlanta. allowed the pro- prietors of the places fifteen days after the passage of the law to comply with 1t, and the fifteen days expired Monday night at 12 o'clock
 Accordingly MT. Abernathy went around yesterday morning and ordered every place closed where the law had been dis regarded and considerable excitement was caused among the proprietors of the the atres. He also delivered an order to the Birmingham Railway. Light and Power company notifying them to discontinue their electric service to the places and not to reconnect.
 The order not to reconnect the electric service to the places caused excitement, but MT. Abernathy stated that they had been given fifteen days to comply with the ordinance and in case such was not done the business of the city electrician was to close the places up, and not allow 1t to reopen
 A number of the moving picture men called on Acting Mayor B. H. Cooper and presented the matter to him, asking him to suspend the order for three days. This Mr Cooper condescended to do. Three more days will be allowed for the install alton of fireproof operating rooms, and If the law is not complied with by that time the unimproved places will be closed to business.

MYSTERIOUS BODY
 MAY BE A GHOST
TELEPHONE REPORTS OF DEAD BODY ON A DRAY FAILS TO BRING ANY SATISFACTORY So- LUTON TO PROBLEM.

A report was spread over the city yes- terdary evening and last night that q corpse had been found in Seventh alley, between Twelfth and Thirteenth street, From the report 1t Is gathered that the body is in a plain caslSet, and on a dray hitched to a horse, which was tied to a post in the alley.
 Last night about o'clock some one called Harris Bros. & Co.,, colored under takers, and told them there was a body in Seventh alley and that they had bet ter send some one after 1t. The receiver at the other end of the line was hung up and before going after the body one of the undertakers thought it well to investigate. He called residence in the neighborhood of the spot where the body was supposed to have been found and asked if the re- port received was true.
 The person who answered stated there was a body in Seventh alley nearby, and that it was in q casket He stated that dray containing the casket had been driven Into the alley just before sunset and the horse tied to post. Nothing more was seen of the driver and the dray was reported to have been standing at the place late last night.
 An undertaken from the establishment. on Eighteenth street went to police head quarters and asked for an officer to escort him to Seventh alley, as he was afraid of the neghborhood at night. He could get no satisfaction there, one of the high CT officers simply stating that it was no business of the police force to investigate such a report. The coroner was then called and he stated that he had received probably twenty telephone calls in refer ence to the matter but did not believe there was anything in 1t. Accordingly he called Gaudn & Co. and told them to go investigate, and for some reason this was not done. Consequently no investigation was made and whether the report was false or whether there Is a decomposed body on the dray will not be known until this morning.
 It was reported that considerable excite ment prevailed in the vicinity where ta corpse was supposed to have been found, and that the people nearest the dray were afraid to go out of their front door,

AFTER CLEAN COUNTY.
Sanitary Inspector Named to Force
 People to Clean Up.

At the request or Dr. B. H. Sholl, chairman of the county commission of public health, the Board of Revenue at It's meeting yesterday appointed George Roebuck as sanitary inspector for Jefferson county, to work under in- structions of Dr. J. M. Mason.
 Dr. Sholl stated in his letter that owing to the unusual amount of fever throughout the district that it was desired to have general cleaning up and requested that the board author ize the employment for the next month or six weeks, as they have done during the past few years, of this in- spector to enforce cleaning up under direction of the health officer.
 The district outside the confines of Birmingham is said to be dotted with spots that are proving to be a menace to the health of everyone throughout the county on account of their state of filthiness. The work of cleaning LID these spots will be taken up imme- diately, large force of men being put to work on them The yards of peo- ple residing outside the limits of Bir- mingham will also be looked into and ordered cleaned where necessary

CORONER TURNS
 TRICK ON BOARD
Summons Three Members to Attend In quest Over Remains of
 Richardson.

Three members of the Board of Rev enue. President John T. Reed and Messrs. Job Going and W. H. Crook, were summoned by Coroner Paris to attend the inquest held over the re- mains of Charles Richardson, who was found dead Sunday morning In the house of negro woman at Bessemer. Coroner Paris gives as his reason for doing this that he had heard that mem bers of the board had stated that "it was publicly known who killed Rich ardson," and that he wanted members of the board at the investigation to see if 1t was really known who killed Richardson.
 c. w. Houston was requested by the coroner Sunday to begin this investi- gation. but it is said that he was told by members of the board that the in- vestigation was unnecessary as the slayer of Richardson was known.
 Coroner Paris says that the constant turning down of his claims by the board Is becoming wearisome, and that in future he will summon a quorum of the board to attend every investigation which he holds.
