live up to your reputation. I know one
woman who is measured by her maid
from head to foot every single day.
Her waist must always be exactly the
same, so that her clothes will fit fault
lessly. If it's a fraction of an inch too
big she's pulled in, and If It's too small
she's let out. Think of having to go
through that every single day, con-
stantly on guard as to your looks"
Miss Burt made a funny face n
sang mot for milne"
"And Just think of the oceans of mas
sage cream and the hours of beauty
sleep. A professional beauty, though
she appears to be a woman of leisure,
works a great deal harder than most of
us.
I'm supposed to have no dress on in
this act" said she, in explanation Of
the pink taffeta p%etticoat n bodice;
'these are supposed to be underclothes.
For that matter, they are. but do you
know, I've gone on the stage often in
evening gowns as low cut as this, but
just because this is supposed to be
underwear it embarrasses me to DEATH"
Miss Burt looked anxious.
Ridiculous" said I, and she agreed,
and added that she couldn't help It..
She proceeded to loosen her wavy dark
brown hair, and picked up a handful
of hairpins, a mirror, nail file and other
dressing table appointments and beck
oned me TO follow her down to the
stage, where, behind the curtain, she
prepared for her scene, introducing her
husband to me. He was trailing around
in a bathrobe, and looking rather I'M
patient.
IT do a little newspaper work, too"
said Miss Burt. you know, I'm Welsh,
and in the town where I live, out In
Pennsylvania, they ave a paper called
the Druid. Every week I send 1t a let
ter telling about Welsh people I meet"
A bell rang and I scooted just in time.
Another second would have found me
on the stage before the public. 1t was
a narrow escape. but Miss Burt went
with her scene as composedly as II
just a moment before she had not been
laughing heartily at my sudden flight.

MYERS STRIKES
SNAG IN NEW
SCHOOL. BOARD
Architect Is Told That APP
p0intive Body Doesn't Need
Considers Services.
WANTED TO SHOW PLANS
ON TECHNICAL HIGH
President Guilds Resolution
Says, "We Have Our Own
Competent Man."

War to the finish between the Board
of Education and Architect Nathan
Myers over the erection of the pro-
posed Manual Training and Technical
High School was indicated at a meet
ing of the buildings committee Of the
Board Of Education last night, when
it was practically decided before the
board met, to dispense with the plans
of Mr.. Myers and have plans drawn
by School Architect Ernest Guilbert.
Architect Myers addressed a letter to
the committee last night to h effect
that he lad learned that the Board Of
Education had at Its disposal the adj
ditional 5000, 900 to the original $4,000
appropriation for the erection of the
school. and he asked that he be notified
when the board would be ready to look
over his plans finally before the work
was begun.
AS a result of, this letter President
Frederick Guild offered a resolution,
which was passed, stating that, as the
present small board had a school archi-
tect competent to draw all plans, that
it was the opinion Of the board that the
services of outside architects could be
dispensed with entirely. Secretary
Robert D. Argue was instructed to send
a copy of this letter to Architect Myers.
This case has already cost the city
$500. Under the old elective board
of 1906 Myers won out In the compe-
tition of plans for h erection of the
technical high school. The sum of
$500. 900 was set aside for the erection
of the school, and when bids were re-
celved on the Myers plans it was found
that it would cost approximately $780,
900 to erect the building, ipstead of the
100000 appropriated. The old board
of 1906 passed this mooted Question over
to the board Of 1907, after having paid
the architect $500 as first payment for
his plans. Then the present small APP
pointive board succeeded the old
elective board of two members from
each ward, and a school architect was
appointed, instead of having compe-
tition for the choice of plans.

IN MASS
MEETING TO PLAN
PARkERS DEFEAT
His Adherence to Speaker Can
non and Antagonism to Organ
lied Labor the Charges.

Arrangements have been made for a
mass-meeting of all the hatters' unions
in Essex County at the New Audi
torium on Wednesday night, when the
question of taking steps to defeat Con-
gresham r. Wayne Parker for reelec-
ton in the Eighth Congressional Dis
trict because of his alleged antagonism
to the interests of organized labor will
be discussed. 1t is the first time that
the matters have taken such a decided
stand In politics.
While some hatters said today that
they were inclined to give Mr.. Parker
al opportunity to tell whether he
favored the election Of Congressman
Cannon for speaker, the majority seen
said it would be only wasting time, as
they felt that Mr.. Parker would not
have the opportunity to vote for any
one.
No arrangements have been made so
far as to who the speakers will be at
the meeting Wednesday night. 1t has
been decided, however, that no candi-
dates for any office will be allowed to
speak.

PLOT TO MURDER SHERIFF AND WIPE
MRS. SHIP oVERHEARS PRISON
 FRS IN MORGAN COUNTY JAIL DISCUSS PLANS FOR THE EscA-
 FADE OF WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

Decatur, December 1S.-(Special)- terday his wife overheard a conversation between prisoners in the county jail to the effect that the prisoners had planned to murder Sheriff Shipp and his wife and then for all the prisoners to es- cape.
 Sheriff Shipp says it was the intention of the prisoners to carry out this plot last Wednesday night. He says that a white man confined in the upper portion of the jail by constant bending, had broken off several pieces of steel in a tri- angular shape, leaving the points sharp. These pieces of steel had been thrown down to six negro prisoners confined in a big cell below The plan was to break the outside bars, dig through the brick wall, liberate the white man in the cell above and when Sheriff Shipp and his wife en- tered the jail to lock the negro prisoners in tEeir separate cells the negro prison CTS were to kill Sheriff Shipp and his wife with the sharp pieces of steel and all of the prisoners then make their escape
 Instead of Sheriff Shipp and wife going into the jail on Wednesday night, as usual, to lock the prisoners up, Deputy Dan Ryan entered the jail and found the bars broken and a hole in the brick wall. Two negroes had already escaped. The other negro prisoners were standing there with the sharp pieces of steel in their hands. Deputy Ryan drew a revolver and fired and the prisoners became cowed. Another deputy and Sheriff Shipp were soon on the scene.

MORE TROUBLE IN
 NATIONAL GUARD
BoYDEN'S PEEFEC-ToE

Decatur, December 18.-(Special)- Major William H. Long, Jr., of Decatur, a major of the Third regiment of the Alabama National Guard. charges that there are more irregularities in the Third regiment and that these irregularities are in Dick Adams Rifles, Company E, of Decatur.
 Major Long had the following to say regarding these irregularities:
 There are some more irregularities in the Third regiment of the Alabama Ma tional Guards and this time it is in Company E of Decatur
 Tt appears that a commission for sec- ond lieutenant in Company E has been illegally acquired and that some of the members of the company are going to have quo warranto proceedings brought against Lieut.. w. T. Steed for the pur- pose of revoking his illegally acquired commission
 ''The law requires that the colonel Of each regiment in this state must issue orders for an election to fill the vacancy of any commissioned officers in the regi- ment that he commands upon receipt of orders from the governor and the colonel of a regiment hasn't any authority to is- sue any orders for an election for any office in the regiment he commands un- til he first receives orders for the said election from the governor.
 Orders for an election for second lieu tenant of Company E were issued from the adjutant generals office on July 2S, 1908, but these orders published in the armory of Company D are as follows: Pursuant to order headquarters, Third infantry, Alabama National Guard, An niston Ala, July 20 190S an election for second lieutenant to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Lieut. G. R. Reddus, will be held September IT, 19OS' This makes the above order illegal in that it was published eight days before orders were issued by the governor and in addition the above order was issued upon orders from regmental headquarters over thel telephone to be followed later by written orders
 There were 15 members of the com pany present on the night of this cleo tion of Lieutenant Steed and 12 of the 15 voted for F. B. Littlefield but the commanding officer voted 26 or 2s proxies for W. T. Sneed and aAclared him elected"
 Major Long says that quo warranto proceedings will likely be filed in few days against Lieut.. W. T. Steed
