The Liszt Society.

Miss Sarah Fisher Ames entertained
most delightfully."- at her elegant home
Saturday afternoon, the List Society
being the guests. Roll call response
was the name, together with 'ome
short statement concerning famous
singer. The great musicians of Russia
are being studied, beginning with iRu-
bernstein. The members contributed
many interesting and instructive facts
regarding the life and compositions of
the composer and his Interpretation of
music. Several important current
events in the musical world were re-
lated. The social feature of every
meeting is always essential and truly
enjoyable, yet the society was organi-
zed chiefly for the purpose of promoting
in practical way the musical educa-
ton of the directors pupils, and it is
the sincere aim and constant, untiring
effort of the director to make each
meeting helpful, valuable; to render
every portion of the program SO clear
and simple that all, down to the young
est member. may derive some real ben
eft. In the game that was played Miss

ORDER PLACED HERE
 FOR CONCRETE TIES

The American Concrete and Steel Rail- road Tie company of Birmingham has received an order from the Terminal Railroad association of St. Louis for a section of their ebncrete ties to be placed under the track in the yards at St Louis As all the railroads entering St Louis use the Terminal tracks, this will be a test for all the roads enter ing that city.
 B. M Bullard, president of the com pany, has just returned from trip through the west, where he went in the interest of his company, and re- ports that the railroad officials he met were very much interested in the tie. A section of these ties was placed several weeks ago under the rails Of the main line of the Alabama Great southern railroad in the yard between Twentieth and Twenty first streets where they have been passed over by the passenger and freight trains Of the company, and according to statements from officials of the road have measured up to every requirement.
 Concrete crossties have been made before this, but upon being tested, have exhibited a lack of elasticity, making them impracticable. as a rigid road bed is injurious to rolling stock. However, this tie Is said to overcome this ob- lection, possessing the elasticity re- ouired It is made in two sections, be- ing disioined in the middle, thus giv- ing them elasticity. A cross section extends out on each side, slightly ,-iy fn end of this cross section, which allows the rail the necessary spring. A steel bar, countersunk, is placed on top of the tie sections which joins the rail, extending under the raih and clamped on the outside of the rail- while a steel clamp on the inside of the rail resting against a boss on the steel bar, and inside of the rail, is secured to the cement tie by a bolt running through the tie. This arrangement 1t Is claimed makes 1t impossible for the rails to spread or turn over
 The problem of securing a crosstie to substitute wood has long been a subject of deep concern to all railroads. The life of the present wood tie is from five to seven years, while that of the concrete tie is practically indefinite. Another advantage of this tie Is the fact that 1t takes the place of two wood ties. thus reducing the cost
 The company proposes to build chain of plants throughout the coun- try to manufacture these ties, which will be located accessible to sand. gravel and cement. A 2oo-ton hydraulic machine will be psed in their manufac- ture. which has a capacity of com plete tie every three minutes.

gets world of passenger business for his line.
 His various connections make him well known and among all classes he is ad- mired. The engineers of the line, the flremen and every one of the crews think there is no man like Hugh" and the Baraca people think the same thing.
 As for getting his line due publicity he is said to be the best in the business. Among the newspaper men he is always looked upon as a lifesaver. for h can supply copy to the struggling reporters in large quantities. Many times he has come to the bat with fine reading matter when the hair of reporters was turning gray In anticipation of the city editors wrath. In all the line gets the desired mention.
 Mir. Latmer never becomes excited, never loses that most excellent boise and when he gets to handling a great crowd of excursionists he shines. He never for gets to smile. In fact, that smile dis concerts the angry ones and there is where he wins.

THE RAILWAY HALL OF FAME
HUGH F. LATIMER
BY CLYDE w. ENNIS

To have been trained up, as It were, measured and booked for the ministry, and then to have drifted into the rail- road business is, as some folks would say, drifting some.
 Everyone, practically, knows Hugh Lat inner and it will not be anything new nor will be betraying any family se- crets to give out this\little song about the ministry part of his life
 As it is, he is represented in that noble calling by a younger brother. who has prominent charge in Syracuse. N. T., and who will speak in Birmingham soon.
 Hugh Latimer. after fully deciding his course in life, picked out the Alabama Great Southern as his meal ticket and went in in a minor capacity. Now he has almost all to do with the local pas senger business, and 1t is believed here that w. O.l Becker. general passenger agent, has something rather good in store for the Birmingham travelling passenger to be a division point, which means pro motions.
 Although MT. Iatmer failed to join that high class of citizens who minister to the people, he assumes leading part in church work in Birmingham He is one of the most active men in the Baraca movement of the Southside Baptist church and has contributed no little in trying to get that body of church people to meet here next year. He is son of Bap- list minister and comes by his church work naturally. It mystifies great many people to understand how man can be- long to great organization like the passenger department of the Alabama Great Southern and find time to mingle with the Baraca and Sunday school move ments at the same time.
 He does 1t and has lots of time to spare. He is said to be the most adroit pas senger man on the Alabama Great South ern railroad and he Is known from New Orleans to Cincinnati or wherever bis companys lines reach. MT. Latimer has been in Birmingham for many years. He has assumed leading part in Ma sonic work. Baraca movements. Sunday school problems and other work and yet

The Rev Robert Echols of Haleyville has been spending several days in Bir- mingham on ministerial business. He is the presiding elder of the Haley vile district of the Methodist Episcopal church, south, the new district that was formed at the last meeting of the North Alabama conference at Roanoke. This new district comprises a large area of mountain territory In Northwest Alabama. where the work of the church has been slow and difficult
 The Rev MT. Echols is 2 young man of unusual energy, scholarly attainments and sympathetic nature. His selection for the task of organizing this new dis trict is considered wise and appropriate.
 The work of organizing and adjusting the difficult affairs of the Haleyville dis trict is progressing most satisfactorily said the Rev. MT. Echols yesterday. This Is a most promising district and we expect to do a great work for the ad- vancement of the Methodist church in Alabama in the development of this ter. rtory.
  of this district is most remarkable. The | territory Is rich in varied possibilities of a material nature and the people are progressive and high-minded There are many mountain sections where the peo- pie are still backward in some of the more progressive ideas of education and church observance, but they are attentive and sympathetic. It is a most interest ing and promising work"
 The Rev J. w. Johnston, pastor of the First Methodist church of Gadsden, was in Birmingham yesterday. He said, "Gadsden Is 1vancing rapidly in indus trial development as well otherwise It will be a great city some day and that day is not far distant. The town has many striking advantages for indus trial development and the people seem to be keenly alive to their opportunities. The work of tho churches in Gadsden and the community is progressing satis- factorily."
 Another notable church visitor in Bir- mingham during the week was the Rev. Ira F. Hawkins, pastor of the First Methodist church of Tuscumlia ia.

 Based on Unfounded Statements
 Further, the answer states that the as- sociaton ayers that the entire govern ment petition is basec on unfounded statements.
 That portion of the answer follows:
 Defendants aver that all of the fore going charges of combination and con spiracy are unfounded and are either unsupported by any appearances of fact, or are erroneous conclusions and ~deduc- tons drawn from the constitution and bylaws of the Southern Wholesale Groc- CTS association, and from resolutions adopted at various meetings, which. when rightly understood, do not bear the sinister construction placed upon them by the complaint
 In speaking of the plans drawn at the meeting in Asheville, which are. given aa an exhibit both by the government and the answering defendants, the full ob- feet and meaning of the association is set forth and that 1t does not bear any sinister or hidden secret meaning.
 "These defendants aver that therein Is fully set forth and truthfully enunci- ated the objects and purposes of the association and that there is no sinister or hidden meaning attached to what ap- pears nor Is there any conspiracy or combination among the association or it's members unless 1t be found in article of said constitution nor in any manner entered into any combination or conspir- acy unless it be expressed or set forth in said constitution and by-laws''
