Vans songs are good this year. The speciality put on by Miss Brooks and MT. Van made the greatest hit of the per- formance. Miss Brooks has a good voice and this number was genuinely enter taining. A baseball game, with the chorus girls as players, and MT. Van as catcher, also struck popular chord. The chorus is composed of a sprightly and very good looking set of girls. They wear attractive costumes.

Reaardlna the Government Building.

Capt. H. w. Crook received a letter from Congressman Underwood today in which he stated that he had again taken the matter of the government build ing for Bessemer up with the department in Washington, and he was informed that just as soon as 1t could possibly be done, a call for bids would be made. He stated that he was informed by the depart ment that the delay in calling for bids was caused by the fact that the de- partment had some rush work on at the present time, and everything else had to be delayed in order to rush this work through.
 It is believed that the bids will be called for by the first of April. The erec- ton of the building will mean a great deal to Bessemer, as the present post office has been fixed over several times by Postmaster Lewis, and still he IS badly in need of room.

Committed WlII Meet soon.

It IS understood that Chairman Huff man of the local democratic executive committee will call the committee to- gether one evening this week. The exact time has not yet been decided upon but it is thought that it will be either Wednesday or Thursday even ing. This meeting will be the first one that the committee has ever held, and 1t is thought that some important mat ters will come up for discussion. It seems to be the opinion of some of the citizens that every man that wants to run for an office within the city should be put on the ticket when it is made up, or at least every person that has paid office with the city. If that be the case, the following offices will have to be placed on the ticket, from
 the office of mayor down: Board of aldermen, chief of police, city clerk, city clerk and treasurer, assistant tax collector, the day warden, the night warden, the fire ch ief, night captain of police, city engineer, street foreman and any other office that the city nigh t have to give out.
 The following members of the com mittee are in favor of putting every one that wants a position with the city on the ticket: H. w. Sweet H. D. Mad dox, Percy Benton, Steve Durrick and possibly one or two others. It is be- lleved that tn cir idea is to make the limit of the salaried positions to go on the ticket $50 and over, as they seem
 to think that by this means some men
 who might not have a chance ordinar- fly to land job, might be able to mak e good when the time came for voting. Mayor Rush was interviewed this aft ernoon with regard to the matter and he stated that while it would no doubt be a good matter to go down as far as the office of chief of police and put him on the ticket, he did not believe that it would be at all advisable to put all the others on, for the reason that there were several positions that did not pay very much and it would cost the applicant in the smaller positions about as much to enter the race as they could expect to get out of the posi- tion In the course of a month or two.

Postal Notice.

Postmaster Chas. Seger desires to
call attention to the practice of some
patrons of rural delivery of placing
loose coins in their boxes each time
they desire to dispatch letters instead
of supplying themselves with postage
in advance of their needs.
This practice imposes undue hardship
on rural carriers in removing loose
coins from boxes and delays them on
the service of their routes.
The postmaster, therefore, urgently
requests that patrons of rural delivery
provide themselves and keep on hand
a supply of stamps consistent with and
in advance of their needs. 1t is also
very desirable that rural patrons place
in their mail boxes small detachable
cups of wood or tin in which to place
coins, when necessary, in purchasing
supplies of stamps.

1.-The Girl of the Sunny South" :"
In the craze for sensationalism
modern dramatic authors, proceed to
extremes and produce scenes that are
repulsive to even the MOST sensational
loving theatre.goer. This is amply
proven by the fact that plays which
depend entirely upon incidents of this
class, are being rapidly withdrawn
from the stage through want of patron
age. In the successful comedy drama,
''The Girl of the Sunny South" morbid
sensationalism is happily not in exist
ence, and its place is taken by stirr-
ing story of heart interest, brimful of
comedy and bright specialties. From
the rise of the curtain, which startswith
the old quint melodies of the south, the
merriment commences with constant
stream of mirth, music and interesting
dialogue continues until the conclud-
ing scene. The castis capable one
and is headed by the clever comedienne
Edith Warren. Special scenic effects
which depict life in the Old South are
carried and serve to give atmosphere
to that land of romance.

Frequently you pick up one of the
local paper and after glancing at
the headlines, wearily thrust it aside
remarking: Nothing in the paper
to-day" Did you ever stop to think
what that phrase, nothing in the
paper to-day" means? 1t means that
in the day or week just passed that
no misfortune has befallen any one in
your town; that no fire has wiped out
neighbours worldly goods; that the
grim angel of death has crossed no
threshold of a friend; that no man
driven by liquor, hatred or fear, has
taken the life of a fellowman; that
no poor devil, haunted by the past
or the misdeeds of some other, has
CROSSED the great divide by his own
hand. So the next time you pick up
a paper that doesn't announce trag-
edy give little thanks instead of a
grunting because there is no news
