WOODROW WILSON
 TALKS TO ALU MINI

Baltimore, March 11.-In an address at the dinner of the Princeton alumni of Baltimore tonight Dr. Woodrow Wilson, president of Princeton university, dis cussed the graduate school controversy brought about by the withdrawal of the offer of s5OO.0cO by William c. Proctor for the establishment of a graduate college, or hall of residence, at Princeton
 Dr. Wilson defined the university's po- sition in the matter. He reviewed the results, which he declared to be most satisfactory, of the revision of study un- dertaken shortly after he assumed the presidency of the institution, and of the radical change in the methods Of in struction shown to his listeners He said the integrity of the trustees and faculty has throughout the recent years been devoted to the development of a gradu- ate school
 Continuing. President Wilson said:
 By a graduate school we mean a body of teachers capable of giving the most advanced instruction; body of students suited to receive it, and the necessary means and equipment in the shape of laboratories and libraries"
 '"The great gift which MT. Proctor re- gently offered the university was ere ated by the terms of his offer with a very specific and detailed plan for graduate college, or hall of residence" said the president. and the terms made it doubtful whether the trustees were left free to adapt the hall as they pleased in developing the graduate school, or not. It was necessary we should know whether we were free in the yielding cf, of T,,o oto life or not. When MT. Proctor was asked how far it was his purpose to give the trustees and faculty complete freedom in the matter. he unhappily withdraws his offer,
 | Declaring it matter of universal re- gret that anything should have occurred which seemed to show lack of appre- citation of MT. Proctor's genc.o and love of the university, President wilson said that their gratitude is not in any wise diminished or clouded by the with drawal of his offer.

WIENER MAN Is
 CHUBBY GREEK
His "Hot oness Prove Life Savers to Rich and Poor Alike at
 Midnight Hour

X little chubby Greek. with sandy nustache and blue eyes, stands behind a short counter on Twentieth street and rules the appetites of high and low in Brmingham The tap of his salt cellar commands alike the attention of the lit- tie smutty-faced newsboy and the fas- tidious bank clerk. Like Alexander the Great, no sooner does he find new vic tim than the creatures appetite becomes servile to his will.
 Charlie runs a wienerwurst stand. A little hole in the wall gas stove, a fry ine pan, and a boiler are his instruments Of conquest. Across his door is written John D. Rockefeller, Hot Lunches" in true prophetic vision. for never did Stand ard Oil rule with such monarchal sway.
 The uninitiated cannot appreciate Charlie. Who has not seen him slit bun in half. as his eyes sparkle, and dip from the boiling eauldron four fat little "doggies,' oozing with odorous juice, knows nothing of heaven. much less of earth. Laying the "wiennes" across a slice of the bread, he adds a little sour kraut. two slices of onion, a dash of salt, q smear of mustard. a pickle. and
 
 hands you morsel fit for the gods.
 The effect is overpowering. Once con- verted, always d worshipper al Charlie's counter. The pale-faced keeper of a blind tiger is no more sure of the return of his victim. To pass that door and catch whiff of the odor leaves no alternative but to enter.
 Let the scoffer but face this jovial Greek at midnight and his doubts will disappear. Some of the music of the good dogs soul before he was ground into sausage must be condensed in the little 'wienne, for upon eating two of these sandwiches one looks at the stars, feeling an impulse to burst into music and bay at the moon.
 The son of the millionaire, the day la borer, the street waif. the newspaper re- porter, the banker the clers. crowd this little stand in regular stream until the early hours. The only fear is that Charlie, who has been in America but six months. will get rich enough to return to the old country and leave unsatisfied the passion of his many deVotees.

THE LIFE SAVER ON
 STREETS OF CITY
Story of Men Who By Mere Wave of the Hand Can often Pre-
 vent Disaster

Here is to the lifesavers of Birmingham
 They are checked in and out at the police station three times day and never a word of commendation is ut tered for the noble work they have per- formed They save life and limb every day, almost every hour of the day and their great deeds passed unnoticed
 These noble men themselves hardly realize the service they have done. It is mechanical and matter-of-fact with them.
 A word of caution, a movement of the head, a gentle push or a firm pull does dhe work. and the mad crowd moves on, scrouging up and down the street. No one realizes that a life has been saved. And the big policeman stands at the crossing of the ways looking in ten di- rections at once, swinging his club lightly and whistling to himself Birmingham is a Grand Old Town"
 The policeman who stands In the mid- dle of the crossings Of 1st avenue and 10th street is lifesaver in every sense of the word He saves life and limb every day-almost every hour. He never

A consummation devoutly to be wished is to dodge the issue, perchance escape but how? Aye, there's the rub
 Which means that according to the edict of the city health officer, Dr. Hardness, and the Hon. Frank Patrick OBrien, chief mogul of our great city. whose mandates must be obeyed, every man, woman and child within the city limits of Birmingham, regardless of color, sex or previous position on the constitutional amendment, must be vaccinated at once or suffer the dire penalties of the law.
 And to that end his highness, the Mayor, has issued proclamation that has been '.Proclaimed throughout this vast do- main" This includes Harry Jones, Brooks Lawrence and Jesse Stallings. And let it be known that from this edict there is no appeal, except a doctors certificate. So it is to be vaccinated or go to jail, and don't imagine that his honor is bluff ing A glance at Judge Feagin's docket will convince you the Mayor is very much fin earnest.
 As to our opinion on vaccination. we believe in it to the extent of having our good left arm punctured and the virus injected therein. At the present writing we can feel it's effects.

We hear some ob- jections to vaccination, based as a rule on former experiences or antagonism to the practice Many will say the last time they were vaccinated their arm got so sore that it was about to drop off.
