 Such statement. that the orphanage is aided by the city funds, would, if allowed to go uncorrected. make the task of running the home doubly hard. The generous citizens of Birmingham make up by private donations the amount needed to. support these poor, helpless unfortunates, and these chari- tably disposed individuals would, of course, consider tn emselves freed from obligation to continue were the city making an appropriation to an in- stitution that is surely not less deserv- ing of assistance than some others that the city freely assists.

LETTERS TO THE -DITOR.
Writes About Blue Laws.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 l think that some wrong impressions may be made by certain Ahings that have appeared in print in regard to the "blue laws" about Sunday golf. tennis. etc. l was present, and heard all the debate in the legislature on the subject. The friends of Sunday observance did not include any of the games, such as golf, tennis and link pin in the original bill. The enemies of the bill, as introduced, fought it fercely at every step. They introduced every conceivable amendment, in their effort to kill it. Then came the amendment against golf. tennis and such games l remember Senator Johnston saying with deepest feeling: T want everybody here to know that the friends of this bill have not asked for any such amendments. or advocated them. If the opponents are determined to push them, I for ore will be delighted to have them in the bill A number of the friends of the bill made similar statements. It will be seen that. however hard the bed is to lie on, the friends of strict Sunday observance did not make it.
 l have been looking anxiously for some statement from the group in the Senate who fought so hard to kill the bill as to their reasons for adding the amend ments complained of by so many. The leaders and chief speakers in opposition to the Sunday baseball bill were the senators from Jefferson, Montgomery and Sumter counties. Those who complain at the severity of the law as passed, are respectfully referred to these gentlemen, who will possibly be able to enlighten their friends. Yours very sincerely,
 J. J. D. HALL.

he will find there a complete answer to all that has been charged here. Instead of the secretary showing favoritism to New York or other banks he has been aetuated by patriotic principles and he made the deposits in New York, Chicago or other banks because they were located where the emergency existed.
 MT. Hopkins read extensively from the report of the Secretary of the Treasury explaining his reasons for what he had done. saying he wished these reasons to go out with the speech of the Texas sen- ator
 MT. Culberson said the secretary re- fused to give the Texas banks deposits hey asked for, and Mr. Hopkins replied hat he had done the same thing in re- peet to Chicago banks, as he put the honey where he believed the greatest mergency existed.
 The consideration of MT. Culberson's s
 solution was then postponed, and it was
