 Judge Gary closed by again thanking the people Of Birmingham. on behalf of Mrs. Gary and himself, for their warm and genuine southern hospitality.
 Enthusiastic Over Speech.
 The representative business men of Bir- mingham who were present at the lunch con were enthusiastic over the delicious speech made by Judge Gary, noteworthy as . definite statement of the programme of expenditure in this district already agreed to by the finance committee of the corporation and of the policy of the company with reference to it's future developments.
 Judge Gary is evidently deeply inter ested in the development of the com pany's properties in Alabama, and feels most cordially toward the people of the south.
 Although the entertainment at the Country club was purely social. it was evident that Judge Gary deeply appre- ciated the invitation extended to him by the Chamber of Commerce and took advantage of the first occasion to give definite assurances to the business peo- pie of this district of tho broad policy of development upon which the directors of tho Staal oorporo ttop bad Haci1ad What Judge Gary said made the deep CT impression upon his hearers because of his manifest desire to avoid any ten- dency to exaggeration and the care with which his words were weighed.

HOW TOBE UNHAPPY
 ON $5O,OOO A YEAR

New York, December l6-How to be unhappy on $so,0Oo year was the bur- den of the testimony introduced at the Brokaw separation hearing today Mrs Mary Blair Brokaw, as pretty and as evasive in her answers as ever, was on the stand part of the time for ti , seventh consecutive day She was fol- lowed by her brother. J. Bullard Blair, who gave testimony intended to show that W. Gould Broltaw had treated the plaintiff cruelty and that she was Justi- fed in asking for a separation with $e0. 900 a year alimony. The case will so on tomorrow.
 Statistics figured prominently in the trial today-rather unique figures com piled concerning Mrs. Brokaw's refusal to answer questions and elaborate lists of expenditures in her behalf As com piled by her husbands lawyer. she has ant questions in part maner as fol- lows: "I don't remember 2SS times T can't tell" s1 times. T couldn't tell you." 137 times. q don't believe" s1 times. q don't know, 1s4 times. T think SOL 125 times. T believe" 19S times. T thought" Ss times. and T won't swear" 49 times.
 Other figures introduced by Mir. Bro- kaw's lawyer read like those in tho How ard Gould suit, as sidellghts on how a woman of wealth can spend s30000 in a. single year. Corsets cost s250 a pair and for candy Mrs. Brokaw at one time spent $175. It developed during the trial that Walter Byford, Brokaws private secre- tary. much sought by the plaintiff's lawyers, is in Europe and cannot be sub poenaed.

 Prince Albert has travelled exten- svely and is a man of affairs In ap- pearance he is strkingly like the -die king, but their dispositions and tenn peraments have always been in markeu contrast.
 Prince Albert Student.
 Prince Albert has been great stu dent of politics and economies, and has frequently lectured on these subjects in public To broaden his grasp of the affairs of the world he visited ts-s United States and other countries, aI- ways studying and always adding to his store and fund of knowledge. and He dearly admires clean and healthful philosophy.
 There is another side to the new king which appeals to popular fancy. sports. He is an accomplished horse man, enjoys motoring and has taken flight or two in a dirigible balloon.
 In his intercourse with others his majesty is most gracious. His frank, good natured features bespeak intel ligence and invite confidence.
 Democratic in his tastes and manners, he is, nevertheless. man of firm ue- cision and kingly dignity.
 Always conspicuous before the pubic on account of the nature of his private life, particularly in recent years, Leopold has lately had much of tee world against him on account of II attitude toward thu Congo Independent state. His great interest lay in the development of that country, for he was practically the founder of it. and was it's ruling sovereign.
 The Congo Free State in West Africa was recognized and defined by the con- ference.
