Paid Out Over s1,ooo,ooo Here.

The business men of Birmingham fully appreciate, l believe the great value of the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic to the Birmingham district, but few have known what a large sum of money this railroad company has paid out in Jeffer- son county" said S. S. Thompson. who handled the real estate business for the road.
 Up to October 1. 1907. l had paid for the company $97o,00O for rights of way in the county and terminal property in Birmingham and Bessemer, and since that date various small transactions have brought the total over the S1,000,00o mark No business relations could have been more agreeable than were mine with tho Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic com pany. I bought the property that the company wanted and at moderate prices. As l closed each deal l drew for the money and there was never the least fric- tion hitch.
 "The Atlanta Birmingham and Atlantic has. indeed, a broad, liberal policy, and it will do wonders for this district and for the entire territory between Birmingham and Brunswick

For City Beautiful.

Birmingham mayors fight for the City Beautiful has been recognized on the editorial page of the New York Evening Telegram, in an interesting interview with Birmingham man, which is printed under the head of Topics of the Day. It~is as follows:
 New York will probably never be a beautiful city in the sense that Paris is beautiful because the commercial must always predominate over the artistic, but it might be possible to greatly im- prove the sanitary condition of many tenement and flat house districts by tn a introduction of the civic block society,"" remarked MT. Clifford R. Agnew, of Birmingham, Ala, who is at the HoI- land house.
 Mayor George B. Ward, of Birming- ham is the father of sch eme to make our little city beautiful and clean by enlsting the women who reside on each block in the residential sections and forming civic improvement block so- cieties.'
 He believes that the women can bet ter take care of this work because they are at home more than the men and tn ey known what is needed to abate nui- sances around the home and to improve and beautify the residential sections"

that we should have at least ten more regiments of infantry, five of cavalry and several more companies of coast artillery. He wants enough to garri- son the posts at which it is necessary to maintain a force of armed men. A larger garrison for example is needed in Hawaii, and a much larger force may be needed in the Philippines n order to render the holding of the archipelago secure. But Congress will be apt to hesitate. Expenditures ex- eeed receipts, and the representatives of the people may say that We can get along with an army 60.O00 strong until money flows more freely into the treas ury. An army of 25,000 men was once considered sufficiently strong, and many member of Congress will con. elude that an expansion of the army to 6o,000 men, as at present, is a sufficient backing of strong and efficient navy. The Presidents appeal promises to ba addressed to deaf ears.

Good Roads For Alabama

Senator Bankhead is campaigning daily in behalf of good roads, and if his masterly speeches are well backed up by the friends of the movement the success of the Overton amendment will soon be assured MT. Bankhead's ap- peal is chiefly to the farmers of Ala bama. He shows them that population, values, wealth are possible if good roads lead the way. No substantial gain is possible while the roads are in poor condition. Good roads would lead to all needful things, even to an utiliza- tion of our water powers until light and power and trolleys are provided m every county.
 Senator Bankhead is a persistent ad- vocate of federal aid for the improve ment of post roads, but he says no fed eral aid can be expected in state that is not in a position to do share of the work. This is why the Overton amend ment should be adopted, for 1t would enable future legislatures to devote the net proceeds of convict labor to the improvement of the public roads. Un- less the amendment be adopted Ala bama will not be in a condition to call for or to accept federal aid.
 Chairman Overton should put his other speakers at work in order that the work may be carried on energetic ally in the few remaining weeks of the campaign. Senator Bankhead gets close to the people, and if his efforts are backed up November will bring us a victory that means good roads and all the blessings that follow in their train.

THE "kID" KING OF SPAIN,

From the New York Telegram.
 '1t Is delightful to travel in Spain since the Spanish-American war" remarked MT. Albert T. Wheeler of Philadelphia, who has just returned from trip abroad and is at the Hotel Knickerboclxer
 "The Spanish people go out of their way to please all American tourists. They seem to feel that if they do not we will think they are stuck up about our whip ping them.
 Spain is indeed rejuvenated country. And no one thing has had more to do with bringing about a good spirit and. humor among the people than their kid king.
 He is young rascal on wheels. I wish he would visit this country. The people would fall in love with him, and the re- ception we would give him would do a great deal to wipe out the old Cuban score.
 "He reminds one of a wealthy Yale or Harvard boy. He doesn't appear to give a rap about anything but fun He spends nfoney like a rollcking sailor on shore and is upheld by his people. He is . daring horseman, reckless chauffeur, a. wild motor boatist, and is always ready for romp at any lively game He plays jokes on everybody in his household. in- cluding his mother-in Jaw, whom he seems to delight in worrying to the verge of nervous prostration. He is not at all backward about getting his pranks into print and having his photograph made for the press. He is delightful subject for modern musical comedy, and l wonder that some of our play writers do not take him up He is live wire and a most remarkable contrast to the old rulers of the land of the inquisition'

cULLED FROM THE pEvlL.v

What the devil says in the new play named for him:
 A wife is like a single eyeglass. It looks very nice, but one is better off with out it.
 The drunkard dies of drink, which is the price. he pays. But while he is drunk no angel is happier than he.
 Only the bravery of towards shrinks from wine, song and love.
 The only object and end of life is to blaze. to burn ones self up, to flame and toss the fire around like torch.
 Don't be fools. Be rogues. But be jolly rogues Girlish innocence-the strangest weapon ever made. Against it I am powerless.
 Don't try to ape the arts of women-be a natural girl.
 A revolver is a round of pleasure for six, a simple prescription for curing the disease of life with six pills.
 Women don't always write what they want, but they always want what they write.
 An artist should never marry. His wife swears at the altar to stand ever by his side. But instead she only stands in his way.
 I dabble in everything and always at the improper moments.

''GOing Upn In This Town

Our new skyscraper. the Empire, is to be b stories high. with an attic which will give it the appearance from an outside point of view of a building l6 stories high. And so long as we continue to go up we yet may scrape some of the clouds-of smoke-at any rate. New York may boast it's 6O-story building or rather tower. while Bir- mingham will remain content with 15 stories surmounted by attics. That attic is a link to something higher. That attic means that the city's next skyscraper must be at least IT stories high. We are getting there" by de- grees. So long as there is no recession we need not complain.
 The satisfaction of knowing that no October furry can stay the progress of construction in this town is a piece of satisfaction that satisfies. And it is also a source of satisfaction to know that We are going up." The attic keeps our record good and the thanks of the city are due to the architects for it. It maintains our upward rec ord and that is glory enough for the fjna

Negro Women Buy Homes.

T have been very much impressed with the frugality and wisdom of three negro women in my community said a suburban citizen yesterday.
 These three women were close friends. Several years ago they pooled interests and planned to buy homes. They were earning about $500 each a week taking in washing and doing house work
 They all agreed to buy one lot at a time until each had one in her own name. They Combined equal amounts of savings and bought the first lot on the installment plan When the first lot was paid for the deed was made out to one of the women. The second and third lots were bought, all in the same row, in the same way by all three women.
 After the three lots were paid for and each woman had a deed to lot they all built a house on one lot in tho same manner.
 This done they all made their home in this house and built second house on one of the other lots. This house is rented out and the rent is being put into the third house, The third and last house is now being built
 "Everything is paid for as far as they have gone and when the third house is finished the three women will each have a comfortable home."
