MERCHANTS LOSE BY NEW ORDINANCE Wanted More Notice About the
 Fireworks D. ]. INCOMES IN ENSLEY Was One of the Founders of the City and Expresses Great Surprise at
 Growth-Persona and
 General News.

Ensley, December 1s.-(Special)-The ac- tion of the city council tn forbidding the | discharge or sale of fireworks in the city limits of Ensley, which was somewhat
 surprise is being freely commented upon not only by the dealers in fireworks but
 by numbers of citizens many of whom
 feel the council has shown but little con
 alteration to the taxpaying merchants
 and have done them an injustice as they
 had stocks on hand and will be financia Iosers by the enforcement of the ordi- nance.
 AS to the wisdom in cutting out hre- works no one seems to doubt, as they are pointed out as undoubtedly menace to life limb, and property.
 Speaking of the matter merchant said; 'oThe action of the city council will cause me to lose about S2OO. I don't believe the council looked at that feature when they passed the ordinance. To pass such a measure without giving us notice, to allow us to buy new stock, and then at the last hour to forbid their sale is cer- tainly an unjust and unfair act. Had this been done three weeks ago I could have countermanded my order. As it Is, I have the stock on my hands. We looked for better treatment at the hands of the city council"

 MT McCombs did much in the early his- tory of the city in the way of grading and improving the streets, also in induc- ing capital to invest here. While he was president of the Ensley Land company hundreds of houses were built by them and miles of streets graded and improved at their expense. He has always had the greatest confidence in the future of Ems ley and still retains large interests here. He was much surprised at the magnin- cent strides Ensley has made in the past few years. He complimented ex-Mayor N w Scott on the part he played in upbuilding of the city. He is of the same opinion as MT Gary, the president of the steel corporation, that "Ensley was sure to be the industrial center of the south"

Much interest is being taken here in regard to the postoffice situation. Since the announcement that the name of J. x. Thomas had been serL to the Senate for confirmation, the republicans of Beat 45 have peen extremely busy. The pre- vailing opinion seems to be that Mr. Thomas will be confirmed, though there are certain influences at work to prevent it if possible. A prominent member of the republican club stated today that the meeting of the presidents referee and the Senators from Alabama Is being watched with interest. He stated con siderable opposition to Thomas had de- yeloped among the local republicans.

THE ANNIVERSARY OF IRE
LANDS DELlvERER COM
MEM0RATED AS HOLIDAY
BY MANY HERE.
BooUETs WORN BY MANY
.HIBERNIANs TAKE PRoMlN-
EMIT PART IN cELEBRA-
TON AND WILL HAVE
FESTIVITIES.

There was much wearing o. the
green" in Clarksburg Tuesday in
honor OF the anniversary day of Ire
lands patron saint Patrick. Many
green neckties were worn and there
We're countless bouquets of sham
rock, green carnations and other APP
propriate souvenirs worn in lapels
and upon the bosoms of femininI
dress.
The day was generally observed
by the Irish folks and particularly
by th Hlbernians who rcfrained from
their usual daily work and made the
day a holiday. In the evening, as
noted elsewhere in this paper. the
festivities will culminate in big
social gathering and entertainment
in Centennial hall by the members
of this order.
Services in commemoration of st.
Patrick were held at the Church of
the Immaculate Con .eption and they
were largely attended by members
and visitors.
The 18th of March has been de-
scribed as the Irish Fourth of July.
1t is. day set apart in honor of
Saint Patrick. the patron saint OF
Ireland, who converted that country
from Paganism to Christianity four
centuries after Christ.
Saint Patrick was noted for sew
eral things besides his peaceful vic
tory over the benighted pagans and
the venomous creatures of ireland.
He was native of Scotland, not OF
Ireland; his name was Succath, not
Patrick: he wrote bad Latin, but he
evidently spoke good Irish.
AT the tender age of 16, he was
kidnapped and sold into slavery in
Ireland. There, like the Shepherd
King, he tended flocks. After six
years, he escaped to France and be-
came monk. He had visions and
call to preach The Word to the
Irish. He was created a Bishop and
sent off upon his doubtful and peril
Gus task. His conversion of the
fierce and bloody unbelievers was
prompt and complete. He founded
$50 churches and left his memory so
lovingly impressed upon the people
that it is to this day honored, not on
ly in Ireland, but wherever Irish
men or their descendants are found,
and in no country more sincerely
than in America.
Armed only with the Cross, this
Soldier of Christ conquered king

hood herder of Irish men and
saviour of Irish souls. The shep-
herds crook he carried as lad was
