 One of the. most interesting features of the fMemens exhibition was the rescufng work with the life saving nets, as demonstrated In front of the Knowles building on Dexter Avenue These nets were stretched on the sidewalk and firmly held by several fire laddies, while their bGother fire lighters and several empioyes of the store jumped from second and third story windows of the building, land- ing safely below in the nets.
 While the fremen were aware that there was to be an exhibition run yes- terday afternoon. they did not know the exact hour and made no prepara- tions for it whatever The horses Were in their stalls. the engines were not fired up, and the men were loung- ing about fin the stations as on any ordinary day. and actual work of mak- ing the test was begun only alter the alarm was sounded.
 When the alarm was sent in. quite a large crowd soon gathered on the scene. Many were not aware that it was only an exhibition run and in- tense excitement Twas created for a short while A report was spread by someone that the Exchange Hotel was on Are and it was sometime before everyone was satisfied that it was merely an exhibition for the entertain ment of the visiting fire underwriters.

 Mrs. Kate Adams Keller. of Flor snce. has ann Incsd the engagement of chr daughter, Miss Mildred Keller. to MT. Laben warren Tyson of this city. the marriage to take, place on July I7th at o'clock in the Presbyterian Church in Florence.
 This announcement is of great in- tersst to large circle of friends in the State, as both Miss Keller and Mir. Tyson are prominent members of so- ciety. Miss Keller has spent the past two years here as teacher in the pub lie school and has been aSvery popu- prominent feature in both business and social circles.
 Miss Annie Kendrick Walker. in an account of the visit to Mount Vernon of Mrs. R. D, Johnson of Birming- ham. who Is Regent for Alabama of the Mount Vernon Association, has the fol- lowing:
 "Alabama's room is among the rooms not opened daily to visitors. It forms part of the quarters at Mt. Vernon and the guards seldom open it except upon request. Through the efforta of z Mrs. Johnston the room Is furnt lned in rich old mahogany. She hunted in curio shops of the far south, the quaint section in Mobile, and selected rare and beautiful old things of the colonial period. Among the historic pieces IS a chair presented by the niece of old Hickory Jackson. Everything about the room is in entire keeping with the Mt. Vernon atmosphere.
 when Mrs. Johnston visits Mt. vernon she always receives in the Ala bama room, has tea served there, and indeed spends the entire time In the Alabama room, just as the other re- gents on their visits to Mt. vernon are entertained in their respective homes.
 Mrs. Johnston referred to the re- cent gift of MT. Charles A. Johnson of Montgomery. MT. Johnson present. Jed the regents with an embossed sketcn of washington, richly framed In old mahogany.
 "The sketch is inscribed after the style of writing of the old monks. IL was hung-at Mt. Vernon during the recent council assembly, the oniy sketch of washington that, strange 10 say, has ever been placed there:
 '.Mr. Johnson has embodied the prin-- has culled what Americans should all know. but ignorance of even the sim nIe facts in the lives of our heroes is said to be 6 national characteris- tic."

The tobacco license established by the last Legislature and which has cre- ated stch widespread protest will in the language of the street be cut out
 of the new code. No official announce ment to this effect has been made. but a number of Montgomery merchants who were !complainants against the H. cense have been assured that the Code Committee, now at work codifying the laws of the State. have left the spe- cial tobacco tax out of the new code.
 This action of the committee, If It Is sustained by the Legislature, and 1t no doubt will be. will relieve the Ala bama merchants in the future of the payment of the license. It will be in forfe this year and this year only.
 The tobacco tax will be the first act of the present Legislature to be un- done. A number of the laws passed by the Legislature ct the winter session have been attacked and complained of. but the tobacco license feature of the

 But the Legislature in the adoption of the new Revenue Code provided that all dealers in towns or cities would have to pay the separate license for their tobacco trade A peculiar req tnrs of the act in question Is that the merchant doing business in the copn- try. no. matter how large, a stock he may carry. does not have to pay tne special license.

 Captain and Mrs. L.. A. Odom of the Salvation Army have in their posses sion a little week-oid baby girl for whom they are desirous of finding a suitable home. The baby was brought to Montgomery last night by a prom inent citizen of Fort Davis, who found 1t on his door step only a few morn- ings ago. Every effort to trace the babys percentage has proven futile.
 An effort was made to secure a home for the baby at Fort Davis but was not successful, so the child was brought to Montgomery and turned over to the Salvation Army.

Everybody in Montgomery has heard it and, having heard. remembers. There is no other laugh in the world that could be mistaken for it. It is unique, 1t is of itself, the individual and the class-just the Frank Williams Laugh. Like the Roosevelt Smile and the Carter Kiss. it is as sublimely alone in solitary grandeur as smile or kiss or a laugh can be.
 It is the perfection of laughter, this Frank Williams laugh. It Is musical. it Is healthily resonant; 1t Is 9 hygien- ic Iauah that stimulates the heart ao- tioA aMd sharpens the appetite. It is n soothing laugh and an uncouraEtng; 1t has not the harshnes sof the cacchi- nation that irratates the man who him.

 For he not only hoard the laugh. but heard 1t several times. When MT. Will Hams was still laughing at one fun niest thing In the world his ingeniously iniquitous friend was getting through with the dull preface of another fun niest thing so as to have the point ready for Mir. Williams when he paus- cd momentarily in his laughing. MT. Williams did not watch the ice. His friend did. and at the psychological moment the ingeniously iniquitous friend. with a most wicked grunt ef satisfaction went away.
 The pictures tell the tale of the laugh and the effect of it's genial warmth.
