Vaudeville at the M.,e.,,c

|
 somewheie in the weeks bill at the Majestic theatre there iS some thing that drags. something that gives A iistlessness to- the evening. Perhaps 1t was the echo of the attitude of the audience Monday night--for 1t was not in the most demonstrative mood in the world. and after the first number there was none other to elicit a per- feet spontaniety of applause.
 Yet there Is nothing exceptionally mediocre in the entire bill. On the other han dthere are some of the mum bers which are bright and new or amazing. But somehow. altogether. 1t dragged.
 Don Carney. the boy, at the piano. was the one who drew the heartfelt applause. It was because of his clever hits on the wellknown dryness of Ala state politics.
 bama. and of the condition of the state treasury and on the status of
 "Prohibitlon Is no joke. when your states treasury Is broke--," he sang. and few more things. And the crowd appreciated it. Besides his apropos singing. his plano playing and limitations took well.
 Charmion. extensively advertised. billed as the leading light of the vaude- vile stage, made good by her familiar itv with her audience, and by a figure and muscular display that Is altogether without an equal. At least the equal hasn't been seen here. As a show of physical charms, Charmion's number made good. The men grabbed for her photo buttons as she flung them out by the handfuls, and there were two pitched battles when she threw her garters as she disrobed on the trapeze. into the audience. The dis- robing act was close on to risque-ness.
 Frsntz Caesar. magician. offers a clever trunk mystery act. one of the most bewifdering explorations of, the well-known transformation act ever seen here. He Is a magician of no small ability. and his act Is unique be- cause of his unusual physique--he goes about the stage on a crutch. Two female assistants make his number the more attractive. =

MUST COMPLY
MAYOR DIRECTS, THAT HEALTH
 REPORTs ARE IMPERATIVE.
Letter Addressed to County Medical society Contains Complaint and Points Out Lnw's PenaIties
 fer Neglect.

At the request of Mayor Gunter, the following self-explanatory letter has been sent to the. members of the Mont gomery County Medical Society by Marshall King. clerk of the city sani- tary department:
 T am directed by the mayor to call your attention to the fact that some members of the medical profession are falling to make the proper report Of births, and contagious and infectious diseases. He lnforms me that at a re- cent meeting of your body. It was charged that the former city aiminls- tration was lax in It's enforcement of the health laws. especially those re- garding the. compilation of vital sta tistics.
 An investigation of the records of this department shows this condition was In part caused by failure of phy- sicians to make proper reports as re- quired by law have no doubt every member of your society realizes the importance of these reports and the failure to make them was a matter omission only. In future 1t, will be the practice of the department to check requests for tests by the city bacteriologist, death certificates. and requests for Immigration against the reports of contagious and infectious disease made by physicians. ani every other possible source of information will be drawn on to secure accurate data as to the existence of such dis ease. @
 ~.For your information, will cite q case Illustrating my point. Tn the past few days I had a request from a local undertaken for burial permit and 8 certificate was presented signed by a prominent physician showing tu- berculosis as the cause of death. a careful examination of the records of tiais ofiice, failed to show any report of the case.
 T have also. had within the last week several requests for Immigration after typhoid fever and found no re- port to cover them.
 'T am satisfied that you will at once understand the futility of our efforts towards a betterment of health condi- tions without the cooperation of ev- cry member of. your profession.
 T am further directed by the may or to call your attention to the penal ties prescribed by the state and muni- cipal laws and to advise you that he purposes to hold me personally respon- sible for their enforcement.
 "I would regret exceedingly the ne- cessity of invoking the aid of any law to secure information and feel sure that when the matter is presented to your membership In it's proper light there will be no further cause for complaint

OPEN FIGHT
 ON BROWDER Council Committee Appeals

 Man ss Fire chief.
 P Ha

sff 5- There cannot be doubt longer that the majority members of the council committees on fire and water works are determined that Fire Chief Hrowd- er's official head must fall. Deniais have been made frequently by the men who seek his job that they are not animated by any personal mo- lives or opposition to Chief Browder personally. Such a denial again is made in stinging appeal made to Mayor Gunter Monday and is masked behind what the members of the maj ority of the joint committee on fire and water works of the council term in mod est fashion the best Interests of the city and the good of that important branch of the city's utiiities--the fire depart ment tt
 However. the final issue Is at hand and the onus Is put up to Mayor Gum ter.
 It was rumored while the mayor was absent from Montgomery before he assumed his new du ties as the city's executive that the council would find way to absolve hin from a promise to appoint Chief Browder again to the head of the fire department.
 It is said that plans of such Q na- ture Called because Mayor Gunter was not willing to retract promise he Ns a a Then the majority members of the committee found that they must act abruptly and drastically and framed the appeal submitted to Mayor Gunter Monday.
 To. them, probably. the appeal in its wording is for Chief Browder the hand writing on the wall whose interpreta- ton any who run may read.
 The text of the appeal reads: I stxxy nnr, Il Ina a majority of the members of the city council of Montgomery beg herwith to formally protest against the appoint ment by you of John F. Browder as chief of the fire department of the city of Montgomery. s&
 Tn the filing of this protest. we wish to assure you that we, are actuat- ed by no spirit of personal feeling against Mr. Browder, but we believe that the best Interests of the city would be served by having some other man at the head of that very important branch of the city's utilities.
 "we desire to call your attention to the stenographic, copy of the proceed- insg held at recent committe in vestigation of that department and es. peciaily to direct your notice to that part of the evidence given by Mr. Browder himself In which he clearly ptoyes himself mpetsnt for the pos- ition Of Ere chisi of the. nGs depart Ira, H.

 yscier.

The first communication of Mayor Gaston Gunter to the new City council covering practically every phase of the ctty's business, was read at the council meeting last night.
 The mayor touched upon the need of cooperation between the several de- partments of the city government and urges upon the heads of each that they earnestly strive to be in harmony with one another.
 Attention is called to the necessity of harmony between the executive of the city an dthe couocilmet and the mayor announces that 1t will be his aim throughout his administration to meet the members of that body freely to discuss the city's affairs.
 Sanitary conditions in Montgomery are touched upon and the policy of the present administration in sanitary matters Is outlined. The mayer says that if his plans are executed Mont. gomery will become the cleanest and most beautiful city Tn the South.
 The great benfit that will acrue to Montgomery from the completion of the new city wharf is brought into strong relief and the public Is called upon to cooperate with their city in making use of this public utility which the mayor says will be the finest of its class on Southern waters.
 The message follows:

the Apaches flock from all districts Of
the city to witness the CHASTITY sight.
Silently they stand. gazing at the
grim instrument of death. until the
condemned individual Is brought forth.
Then jeers and bowls break forth
from the crowd. and as the knife falls
the Apaches rush forward to dip their
handkerchiefs In the blood. These
they preserve ~ souvenirs. or sell
them to the degenerates Of the upper
classes.
Strangely enough. the male Apa-
ches nearly all look alike. They are
hollow-cheeked. dark-haired. furtive-
eyed. stumbling Of gait and sallow Of
complexion-always easily recognized
among the throngs on the streets.
The women on the other hand. as .
rule. are handsome, spirited and in

especial attention 10 the care Of their
hair. which they never cover with q
hat. All of them. men and women.

available and the order must be filled.
Two hundred pounds of the fragrant
comestible was put in . rough. OBJ

er bought q ticket for himself and the
box. and entered the train. At the
first stop he went ahead to the bag

trouble. He stood by the box In
disconsolate attitude and shaded his
eyes with his hand. The baggageman

few years ago one Painblanc was accused

the trial was being held. he hurled his knife at
fEspagnol with unerring accuracy. and the Judge
fell dead with the blade in his heart. The police

Apaches making no effort to save him.
Another alleged traitor was Albert Durin He
was condemned to death and two Apaches tied
