Remember, how brave Kate Shelly
crawled across a bridge In lows sew
eral years ago and saved the North
western limited:
Her heroism has been celebrated In
song and story.
A 1T companion piece to that heroic
deed. heroically done. II the story Of
the rescue Of nine children BY Mary
Mccain, recently awarded . medal by
congress.
It was i've years ago, and Mary was
then but fourteen years Of age.
She sat in her invalid's chair that
day on the veranda Of q cottage on
North Brother island convalescins
from an attack Of scarlet fever.
Listlessly the girl watched an ex-
cursion steamer loaded to the guards
with Sunday school children, colors
flying and band playing, rs 1t cut the
blue waters.
And then came an awful explosion.
Fire and fame seemed to burst from
every part Of the big boat. And then
clouds Of smoke enshrouded the scene.
The fearful cries OF women and chill
dren arose. The boat was turned and
beached on the sands far out from the
shore.
A crowd gathered, and few boats
put on to the rescue. People on shore
wrung their hands rs they saw women
and children drown before their eyes.
And Mary McCann. invalid?
Why, the physicians had said that In
her weakened condition she must be
kept very quiet.
And this was the answer Of the lit
tie maid: She ran to the water, waded,
leaped, swan through the surf. She
caught child that had jumped from
the burning vessel into the water,
dragged the little one ashore and
turned it over to willing hands.
Then she turned back on another
mission Of rescue.
Nine times did the brave girl 80, and
each time she brought back q half
drowned child!
This did Mary McCann, heroine, that
June day. 1904.
And after Ave years congress, which
is ~ slow about rewarding hero med
ais as it il in revising the tariff, pre-.
scented, through its presiding of1cer, q
medal to Mary Mccain.
She has grown since that day Of the
explosion Of the General Slocum into
a woman and Is student nurse at 4
Washington hospital.
Isn't it fne?
And do you wonder that old Joe
Cannon when he gave her the medal
stopped and kissed the lips Of Mary

NO MEDICINE. But Change of Food Gave Relief.

Many persons are learning that drugs are not the thing to rebuild worn out nerves, but proper food Is required.
 There is Q certain element in the cer- calls, wheat, barley etc, which is grown there by nature for food to brain and nerve tissue. This is the phosphate of potash, of which Grape-Nuts food con- tains a large proportion.
 In making this food all the food ele- ments in the two cereals, wheat and bar ley, are retained. That is why so many heretofore nervous and run down people find in Grape-Nuts a true nerve and brain food
 T can say that Grape-Nuts food has done much for me as a nerve renewer," writes a Wis. bride:
 "A few years ago, before my marriage, I was a bookkeeper in large firm. T became so nervous toward the end of each week that it seemed I must give up my position, which l could not afford to do.
 "Mother purchased some Grape-Nuts and we found it not only delicious but l noticed from day to day that was inn proving until l finally realized I was not nervous any more.
 T have recommended it to friends as a brain and nerve food, never having found it's equal. l owe much to Grape Nuts a it saved me from nervous col lapse, and enabled me to retain my posi- tion."

MERCHANTS CALL
 GENERAL MEETING
EFFORT WILL BE MADE TO GET TOGETHER ON PLAN TO BRING MORE TRADE TO BIRMINGHAM. OFFICIAL CALL.

What is regarded as one of the most im- | portant meetings of business men of Bir- mingham that has been held in over a year is called for tomorrow night at o'clock. It is called by a committee of the most prominent merchants and every merchant in the city is urged to attend.
 The avowed purpose is to take steps to bring trade to Birmingham. The mer- chants have been straying apart for some time, and the object is to get together for big pull during the rest of the year.
 However, there is big surprise, a pur- pose not revealed, which means much for Birmingham and the whole district It will be discussed and carefully considered. Here is the official call:
 The undersigned business men request the merchants of Birmingham to meet at the office of the Birmingham Railway. Light and Power company, Thursday evening, February H. at o'clock, for the purpose of organizing a business mems league. The sole object of this organiza- tion will be to bring trade to Birmingham. All retail merchants of Birmingham are invited to be present. No funds will be asked for at this meeting. M. " Joseph. H. J. Porter, John L. Parker, J. Burger.

when a run was made on the Knick erboclxer Trust. It was the beginning of the panic in the Birmingham dis trict although 1t was several days ahead of the great crash in wall street.
 The work of re-organizing the com pany during a period Of industrial de- pression was as MT. Harding points out. exceedingly difficult and the outcome has been most creditable. Indeed, fi- nanciers and others familiar with Southern Steel company conditions speak of the reorganization, which necessitated the raising of $2,O0O,O0O in cash as a wonderful achievement.
 Members of the committee and all who came in contact with it's work are unstinted in their praise of Chairman James T. Woodward of New York president of the Hanover National bank whose financial experience and untiring energy made the success of the plan possible. They are also enthusiastic in their praise of the committees at torney, W. W. Miller of the law firm of Hornblower, Miller & Potter. Mr. Woodward and MT. Miller, it is said,
 
 uncommon energy from the beginning.
 By the plan declared official yester- day the old creditors receive for their claims 50 per cent in first mortgage bonds and 75 per cent in preferred stock, making a total of 125 per cent. Old preferred stockholders will receive 25 per cent in new common and old common stockholders will get 5 per cent in the new common.
 In addition to the $2,O00,000 in cash now on hand, the company has ar ranged to raise $1,500 900 by the sale of preferred and common stock which will be spent entirely on betterments.
 "The reorganization of the South hern Steel is a great thing for Birmingham and the Birmingham district" said MT. Harding. Tt means not only employ ment for several thousand men, but it demonstrates the fact that even in a time of industrial depression through which the country has been kassing, capital faith in the district is abiding and practical. The people of Birming- ham may well feel elated over the announcement that comes from the Southern Steel company's re-organiza- tion committee"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-02-10

This announcement is regarded as the most important and cheering from a Birmingham district point of view that has been made in recent months. The trustees. W. H. Hassinger, John E. Nor ris and T. S. Klye, will be requested to foreclose at once so that all ltiga- tion may be dismissed and the proper tise turned over to the reorganized company Executive and operating of ficials will then be chosen and put in charge of the work of repairing the plants will proceed.
 While MT Harding could not say on what day operations would be resumed some of the plants will be started, it is believed, within the next two or three weeks. The company has ex- tensive coal and ore mines located in three states: Alabama Tennessee and Georgia-and these plants Four blast furnaces. modern steel mill at Gads- den and a large rod and wire mill at Ensley. It will carry several thousand men on it's pay roll. It is understood that MT. Hassinger will be the pres ident of the Southern Iron and Steel company.
 The Southern Steel company failed in October, 1907, on that fateful day
