FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK
In it's Central Portion, Which Passes
 the Hotel Sf. Regis
IS AN AUTOMOBILE BOULEVARD

Ten years ago Fifth avenue rivaled Hyde park in the splendid character Of its cquipages; today 1t more than vies with the Bois de Boulogne in the num- Der. elegance and variety of it's motor cars. On pleasant days more than 60 autos a minute pass the St. Regis Hotel. This means a continuous, daily auto mobile parade unequalled anywhere else in the world.
 The St. Regis Hotel, with it's entrance just off the avenue on fifty-fifth streee, thus affords-to autoists touring through New York, and to those contemplating a longer stay as well-the most convenient stopping point. To this convenience must be added it's other paramount features, for the St. Regis has won merited dis tinction among travellers as America's most comfortable and restful hotel Great good taste. artistic feeling and apprecia- ton, and, above all else, wide experi- ence in catering to people of refinement, have made this hotel what it is. and have gained for it a reputation without flaw or blemsh The touring autoist who makes his New York stop at the St. Regis finds there real comfort and rest under ideal conditions. Nor is he required to pay dearly for the privilege, for the ho- tel is really low-priced when quality of service is considered. It's cuisine is un- surpassed anywhere; yet restaurant charges Are no higher than at other first class hotels. Splendid single rooms may be had for $3 and S4 a day. or the same with private bath for s5 a day Cor ss for two people,; while for psrlor bed room and private bath the rates are from SIP day upwards.

Show horses are born, not made, just as with poets-but to gain distinction they have to be educated. trimmed and groomed Their sartorial development, so to speak, is as important a feature as 1t Is to the best dressed woman, and 1t matters not how fine the horse may be. if he isn't properly groomed he stands very little show.
 Names must be thinned and correctly cared for by dispensing with the re- fractory hairs and tails if not docked must be as smooth and glossy as the shining coat that they wear.
 In England they do this to their hackneys as colts, but the American trotter is transformed at full growth often, or as soon as he has demon strated the possession of attributes to make it worth while. The transforma- tion Is mainly a matter of education and 1t all depends upon the educator.
 Lovers of horsefiesh in Birmingham and in fact throughout Alabama should count themselves fortunate that with in their gates such a capable and ef- ficient horseman as MT. Jack J. Pol lard has come and opened a thoroughly equipped and up-to-date riding acad- emy where everything pertaining to the education and the care of horses is conveniently arranged. And not only Is the horse cared for and educated but the rider and driver as well. The latest methods of riding, proper man agement in the saddle, familiarity with

up good horsemanship.
 Only by the genuine love of the horse can the enthusiasm of the anna teur be explained; with professionals 1t is understandable and that there is a fascination in showing horses fitted to the hour was evidenced a few aft ernoons ago when Mr. Pollard exhib- ited to the view of an admiring throng some of the best specimens of horse flesh seen in Birmingham In many day.
 It was the afternoon hour for rid ing and the number of well groomed and smartly costumed women canter- ing round the tan bark made a very interesting spectacle to lovers of such sport.
 MT. Pollard has some superb ami mals for the riding school and they are perfectly trained and as kind and gentle lambs.
 What do you think of the way the Birmingham women handle the rib bons?" I asked MT. Pollard
 There are some very fine riders" he replied land those who are just beginning are as apt pupils as I have ever seen anywhere"
 Tn the east at the fashionable rid ing schools the latest fad in a social way is the riding party I suppose 1t will meet with popularity here" said
 "Oh, yes," said Mr. Pollard, "and l am splendidly equipped for such oc- casions at the school. Instead of cards or theatre parties no doubt the de- voices of society will be delighted with a change and the riding party will prove very enjoyable"
 How many horses do you employ for riding school purposes?' I in quired.
 q have ten splendid horses. They are as gentle and as kind as kittens and the most timid woman or child would not be afraid to ride one of them" he proudly said.
 "Of course there is a favorite-there always is," I observed.
 Yes" said MT. Pollard. Every lady asks for Myrtle M-she is the favor ite," and so saying he bade one of the grooms bring her forward. And such handsome animal she is, to be sure. A rich red bay, with heavy

SEM MES HOLDS ACT
 CONSTITUTIONAL

Mobile, April 22.-The question of constl- tutionality of the act which allows the prosecution to be sent direct to the city court without going to a grand jury, and which has already attracted very great attention, because of the connection with the present alleged violations of the pro hibition law, some of which were brought before Recorder Clarke this morning, and which was brought before Judge Semmes fin the city court, was settled so far as Judge Semmes' ruling was concerned when. at noon today, he decided in favor of the bill in contention.
 Judge Semmes decided that the act was entirely constitutional and was to be op- erated under, holding that when an act said that the defendant should make and file a demand for jury trial it did not make any difference if it was written.
 The city court, through Judge Semmes, having held that the act is constitutional Solicitor Stallworth at once began pre- pairing a writ of mandamus to have the cases heard before Recorder Clarke this morning transferred to the city court for Immediate trial.
 This is the first victory the anti-saloon forces have achieved in the present pros cautions.

canter, and his prospects are very fine. And right back of him, if you will look, you will see Lewis S., owned by MT. Schillnger and myself, and another good horse he is," said MT. Pollard. All the ladies learn to post on him.
 'TIe is the only jet black one I have seen yet" I remarked. q recognize him as the one Miss Mary Ball rode the even ing of the opening of the riding school, two weeks ago. Am l not right?"
 "Yes, she led the children's drill on Lewis s." said MT. Pollard. And now you must see Lady Anne. Dr. R. Y. Jones' bay. I am educating her, and she has the prospect of making one of the best-gaited mares in the city,
 And this beautiful big bay-whosN is that?' I asked.
 That horse belongs to Mrs. Echols Me- Bee, and is a good horse" was the re- ply.
 "The people of Birmingham who are in terested in horse flesh are indeed lucky to have a reliable, responsible person like yourself to buy from, MT. Pollard l said
 Well, they can depend on what l say in every instance" replied MT. Pollard. My horses are all in good, healthy con- dtion and a veterinary certificate goes with each animal. And besides. they are educated and in perfect condition when they leave my stables"
 There were many more fine horses to be seen-"Duke," a stylish looking cob, and Mrs Percy's dandy combination horse, and many others, passing in review, when I discovered that it was almost dusk, and time for all good folks to be at home.
 There was much more to ask about. and I should have liked to finger and talk morse" all day, for I love animals almost as much as I love people-which is saving a great deal-but duty called, and so tore myself away.

Knight was watchman on the government boat Colbert, which was at Riverton when the drowning occurred.
