 Asked what counties in the state he expected to give Mallory majority he said: "I don't claim any l don't think it is good politics to tell your opponent where your strength lies. l am content with claiming the state which believe will give MT. Mallory a good ma ajority."
 Asked if any of MT. Mallory's sup porters had publicly discussed the charge that certain interests are try ing to get hold of the state govern ment through Mir. O'Neal, MT. Ellis re- piled: "I don't know whether MT. Hen derson has or not"

Commander of Camp Hardee Praises Men Who Have Taken Up Work of Sending Needy Veterans to
 the Mobile Reunion 2

Tt is very, gratifying to us to note the interest that has bcen shown in our play to send worthy Confederate veterans to the reunion in Mobile'' said Mrs. J.. E. Frazier, president of w. L. Yancey Chapter, Daughters of the Confederacy, yesterday.
 We are very grateful to MT. Exum for his efforts to aid us and to the mem Eers of the committee which was chosen to assist him. There are about 25 of the old men, who will. be unable. to 80, to Mobile unless they are given some finan- cial assistance ard we, who have seen those old men at the reunions and know how they enjoy themselves and how much the trips mean to them, should be willing to do what we can to see that all of them go. The amounts we ask are small when compared to the big things of which the men of Birmingham are ca pablo. but they are very large to ths old heroes who have done their life's work and. are now entitled to all the en- toyment they can get from their few re- maininE years."
 Among the letters received by MT Exum yesterday was the following: T

Marie CahiIl

That delightful comedienne, Marie Ca hill, appeared in her new musical play The Boys and Betty at the Jeffer- son theatre last night. Miss Cahill en- tertained in her usual inimitable way with songs that had pleasing Hit and ex- cellent humor and feminine droileries that are peculiarly her own.
 "The Boys and Betty is the work of Americans, but it has a French atmos- phere and is quite dainty withal The ''Frenchy'' songs and dances and stage; settings made what has come to be re- garded as an essential environment for the frothy kind of musical comedy that Is 50 popular with theatre-goers. Betty IS burdened with a husband who thinks he is a genius, but is a most unconscionable chump and scoundrel into the bargain. But Betty is a winning sort and she ,s has a coterie of young friends who stand by her. These are the boys Betty makes the acquaintance of a wealthy major from Atlanta and everybody blows away to Paris. where tho major lends Betty enough money to set up in busi- ness, and she has much s.lcees, to judge from the elegant gowns she wears. After . while the undesirable genius commits bigamy and Betty gets her release to marry a person whc suits.
 The comedy of the piece is most com mendable feature It is sparkling for the most part and refreshing to jaded appe- tites Miss Cahil sings several catchy songs and her mimicry proved to be quite as enjoyable as of yore. The feminine part of the company-and, by the way. femininity of the fluffy sort was much in evidence-danced with joyous freedom.
 James B. Carson, comedian of ability, made the part of Rudolph Gruber divert ing Miss Ann Mooney as Nanon danced with exceeding grace. Wallace McCutch- con. Jr., acquitted himself wal as Paul Gerard. W. e. Stewart as Major Gordon of Georgia was satisfactory, and Miss Hattie Fox did very well as his daughter. Sam B. Hardy made Casinr Rarbeau, the s.genius," quite despicablc.
