LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Smoke Evil.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 While We are attempting to beautify the city 1t appeals to some of us that no more substantial or beneficial move could be made along these lines than to rid our city of the smoke evil.
 There are many cities in which one never sees any black smoke and while We can't hope for this at the present, at least we might stop the continual belching forth of black smoke in the very heart of our city.
 No one who has lived in Birmingham over four years can help but appreciate the difference in the amount and color of the smoke that now comes from the large stacks of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company. These peo- pie did not only do the city a favor by reducing the amount of smoke, but act ually put dollars in their own pockets by so doing.
 The black smoke that we see only too often in our city is the result of i'm proper combustion and if this can be overcome and at the same time make money for the investor, we say it is high time some one was doing something to- ward this end.

WILLIAM ROBERTS INJURED.
Found On Railway Tracks With Skull
 Fractured.

Florence. June 1.-(Special. )-Willian Roberts, a farmer who lives in the hills 10 miles from Tuscumbia, was found this morning at 4:30 o'clock on the track ol the Sheffield electric line, his skull cracked in two places and otherwise injured. Rob erts stated at first that he had been assaulted and robbed by a white man and a negro but later said he remembered nothing about how he was hurt.
 He came down from Decatur yesterday and was arrested and fined in Tuscum. bia for being drunk. Twenty-one dollars was found on his person when he was picked up from the track and the Tus cumbia authorities stated that that amount was on him after he paid his fine.
 This disposes of the robbery theory and it is believed by the police, who made a thorough investigation of the case, that Robert fell from the electric car. in an intoxicated condition.

NEGROES ADVICE.
Tells Fellows That Respect of White
 Race Is Best Compliment.

Decatur, June 1.-(Special)-In an ad- dress on education to a large gathering of negroes at the Colored Methodist Episcopal church here, Prof William P1r- kens, a negro teacher of considerable note from Talladega, paid high tribute to the ante-bellum negro by saying that he had the respect and the confidence of the white people even to this time. He told the negroes that the respect of the white race was one of the highest comph- aments that could be paid the negfo race. He advised the young negroes of this generation to emulate this principle of the aute-bellum negro, saying that this prin- ciplc of the old daddies and old mammies would live in history as long as time lasts.
 Pirkens is one of the best educated ne- groes in the south. He is a graduate of Yale and when he graduated stood eleventh in his class, which was a large one. Tn college he was a member of the Phi Beta Kapa fraternity. He was on his way to attend the commencement ex- ercises al Normal, a negro college near Huntsville.

TWENTY-FoUR GRADUATE.
Agricultural and Mechanical College
 Comes to Close.

Normal June 1-(Speeia1. )-Twenty-four graduates from the normal department receiving their diplomas from Vice Pres ident Hiram E. Archer and making the total from all departments "A, brought the exercises of the thirty fourth annual commencement of the Agricultural and Mechanical college for negroes to a close last night The exercises were of un- usual brilliance and took place before an audience that taxed the capacity Of the chapel The 24 graduates represented the states of Alabama, Tennessee, Missis- sippi Georgia, Florida and British South Africa Mahlon Cecil Cooley and Virgil Mathews, both of Tennessee, won the first and second honors respectively.
 The exercises were pronounced, by many visitors to be the best in the history of the institution being of unusual credit on the part of the students.
 The music furnished by the Agricultural and Mechanical college band, the Min strenoa and Treble Clef clubs, were spe- cial features of all the exercises.
 Rev E. W. S. Hammonds, D. D., dean of the department of theology of the Wal den university delivered the address to the graduating class on the subject, "A Study in Clay" He pointed his young hearers to special activity among their people, looking toward efficient leader ship in their several communities. He stated that of all things earthly but one thing survived and withstood the ravages of time. That one thing he emphasized as character. He emphasized the lm- portance of upright leadership for the negro people, and said, among other things: The best leadership is that which is trained to serve The negro leader ship should not be deluded by the flat tering suggestions of emolument, position nor place to submit to a compromise, which would ultimately be repudiated by an indigI--t constituency. Our frlenos are legion and the stand We take will augment those legions We will have the white race to lead and inspire us by that association and contact which will put us in touch and in perfect har- mony with the best thought, the best purpose, sentiments and life of the pest Christian people of the south
 In presenting the diplomas to the grad uates Dr. Archer gave them some sen sible advice with reference to their work in the several communities, admonish- ing them to be strong and faithful i'll the discharge of their duties and honest in their relations with their fellows. He paid high tribute to the life and work of the fate President William H. Coun- cill and pleaded with the young people going out from Normal to try to shape their lives after Professor Councilfs.
 The honorary degrees of doctor of phil osophy were conferred upon Dr. c. O. Boothe of Selma Ala, Rev. D. w. S- Hammonds of Nashville, Tenn. and Rev. E. J. Simpson of Bowling Green, Ky.

PRACTICAL JOKE.
Joe Porter Travels Twelve Miles On
 "WiId Goose Chase"

Anniston, June 1.-(Special. )-AS re- suit of the bond election for a better water works system, in progress at Jack sonville Tuesday, and practical joke in connection herewith, Joe Porter in favor of the issue, made 12mile trip Monday night, and between the hours of Il and l o'clock reused from soothing slumber Iverson E. Watson, clerk of the circuit court; H. T. Persons, superintendent of education in Calhoun county; the Right Rev. c. M. Beckwith, bishop of the dio- cese of Alabama; Emmett F. Crook, probate judge of Calhoun county, and Sheriff W. c. LeGrand, after which MT Porter returned to Jacksonville and prob ably reused D. J. Privett, an anti-bond man, and perpetrator of the joke.
 MT. Porter's trip from Jacksonville to Anniston was in search of the poll list giving the registered voters for Beat 1, which had been secured on the day pre- vious by MT. Privett, who, however, left MT. Porter under the impression that the list was not in hand Inasmuch as a former election for this purpose was de- clared illegal on a technicality, MT. Porter was determined that the second one should be thorough. Hence his trip to Anniston.
 On his arrival in the city the deluded messenger went first to the home of MT Watson in search of aid in securing the list. MT. Watson was unable to accom- pany him, and Mr. Porter then went to | MT. Persons. That gentleman dressed and through a mistake the two men came to Bishop Beckwith's s house in search of Judge Crook. It was nearly l o'clock when the bishop, clad in his nightcap, poked his head out of the window and was addressed as Judge Crook, and had the bishop not been bishop he might have lost his patience, as it Is not often that he is called from his couch at such unusual hours.
 Finally Mr Persons and MT. Porter reused Judge Crook, who informed them that he thought the poll list had been given to MT. Privett by Sheriff LeGrand but that if it had not been, he would pre- pare another one. Then began the trip to the sheriff's, which resulted in the knowledge that MT. Prvett had secured the list and had taken it with him to the scene of the election. It is needless to say that MT. Porter was in a nowise lamb-like disposition by this time. and the exact phraseology of the soliloquy which he indulged in on the homeward trip is not given out for publication.
