is responsible for goodly portion of the laughs. Her facial expressions are eloquent and in the scene with '.the boys she comes to the fore emphatically.

A railroad is going to build through it and the land is very valuable Knowing this, Franklyn Royce, a sup posed lover of Beth, schemes tos get pos session of the land for his employer.

PORTUGAL HAS NOT
 HAD AN OUTBREAK
Denial Is Made of Threatened
 Revolution
QUIET AT THE CAPITAL
Reports Are Received In London of Unrest Among Working Glasses But Nothing Serious Has
 So Far Developed

Paris, December 3O.-Senor Bandeira, the Portuguese charge d'affaires here, in an interview today, said he had received official dispatches from Lisbon this morn- ing, the tenor of which indicated that calm prevailed at the Portuguese capi- tai and that rumors to the effect that a revolution was impending were un- founded.
 said, is embarrassed that a radical and conservative split has taken place among the republicans, each faction struggling to gain control. There is some discomfort among the people and some strikes of em- ployes of the public service corporation, but Senor Bandeira declared these dis putes are on the eve of settlements and the situation is not critical. nor is the republic menaced.
 Senor Bandeira received another dis patch from the foreign office at Lisbon this afternoon which confirmed the pre- vious advices. It added that three war ships had been sent to Madeira on ac- count of the trouble arising from the en- forcement of the stringent measures to prevent the spread of cholera there. The dispatch said also that there was no trouble in the army or navy in Portugal, shat there had been no discovery of royalist plot, and that no arrests had been made for political reasons.

TAKE UP HANDLEY
 MEMORIAL MONDAY
ABLY AGREE UPON DATE AND PLANS FOR X BIG MEMORIAL MEETING

At the weekly meeting of the pastors of the Birmingham district, to be held Monday, the committee of pastors having in charge the arrangements for me- morial service for the late Dr. Luman s. Handley will confer and probably arrange the details.
 The meeting was to have been held New Years afternoon. However. the committee decided that the service was of such great moment as to make it im- possible to perform the work and ar range the details in such short order.
 For this reason the meeting was passed. At the meeting to be held Monday morn ing the Rev. pr. A. J. Dickinson, who is chairman of the committee, will gather the ministers together and decide upon some plans. He said yesterday that the entire membership of the committee was of ministers of the church and that at the meeting Monday they could gather without sacrificing any time at all.
 The committee has some very interest ing plans for the meeting in honor of the late pr. Handley and it is probable that it will be one of the most interesting services that has ever been held here in memory of a departed man. The meeting is also for the purpose of getting the monument to the late Dr. Handley under way as the citizens of this city have de- termined to build one to his memory.
 At the memorial service speakers from other cities will be here and short talks will be made by Birmingham men of note.
 Bishop J. H. Mccoy, one of the mem- bers of the memorial service committee, said yesterday that he was very much interested in getting a fine service ar ranged as the late Dr. Handley was one of the most lovable men he had ever known. He said that Birmingham would grace herself by erecting to his memory a monument or memorial of some lasting kind The idea of Bishop Mccoy is echoed by a majority of the people of this city who are interesting themselves in the plant to erect the memorial

Frisco Official to Hold Conferences on
 Transportation Matters

For the purpose of holding con ference with local coal merchants and the Operators association officials, E. D. Levy, general superintendent of transportation for the Frisco lines, will reach Birmingham this morning. He will probably meet Capt J. " Allen of the Operators association this morning.
 The visit of MT Levy here at this time is said to be for the purpose of strengthening out some tangles in car matters and getting things In shape to handle all the coal and other ship ments made on the Frisco with dis patch. The shortness of equipment for the past few months on all of the local lines has caused some trouble, but it is believed this is being dispelled rap idly
 The visit of MT Levy will go long way toward giving permanent re- lief here. He will be in conference with Frisco transportation men and every care will be exercised during the coming few months to do away with delays of every kind on the Frisco lines.
 MT. Levy Is well known here in in- dustrial circles. He will go from here to other points on connecting lines be- tween this city and New Orleans He will return to Springfield from the Crescent City.

S@
ADJUSTMENTS
.oThe Travelling Salesman"

''The Travelling Salesman" filled with clean, wholesome humor, kindly satire and honest wisdom, was seen at the Jef- fersoa theatre last night with Frank J. Mcintyre in the leading role, supported by a cast of uniform excellence, headed by Miss Gertrude Coghlan.
 Too much cannot be said of the clean wholesomeness of 'The Travelling Sales man., and after some of the plays on the boards this year it is like a breath of fresh air There is not line in the play that could offend.
 The play is very realistic and is sup posed to show the life of the Knight of the Grip in realistic fashion. Whether it does or not only drummer can tell, but from the enthusiastic applause last night at fine points which only a drum mer could appreciate, it appears that it does.
 Frank J. Mcintyre, of course, is the bright particular star, but others of the cast are no whit behind him in masterly handling of their parts. MT. Mcintyre is natural comedian and every movement brings a responsive laugh. Both on ac- count of his size and the charming vii vscity with which he endows the part. Bob Blake is a reality to most of the audience.
 Miss Gertrude Coghlan, who plays Beth Elliott is an able second to MT. McIn- tyre. She is a capable actress and her parts suit her admirably Miss Coghlan shows her mastery of the part in the details She is well nigh perfect in the first act, which is the most amusing of the play. Miss Coghlan plays the part of the courageous country girl in a man ner that goes straight to the hearts of the audience.
 Of the work of the other members of the cast much could be said. James O'Neil. Jr.. does good work as "Ted Watts a brother traveller of Blake. His acting is very realistic and sufficiently virie to be satisfying.
 Miss Sarah Mcvicker as Mrs. Babbit,'

 MT Garnsey was very enthusiastic over conditions and said Birmingham was growing fast in the estimation of coal buyers.
 The Galloway Coal company officers do not feel very much worried over the ef- forts being made to cancel the leases held by them on the valuable Mudd es- tate in the Blocton field.

 ''The courts are ex-officio Investigating the titles presented by the claimants without any charge to the latter, and delay of six months has been granted for the claimants to prove their titles. Tn case these titles should after proper inves- tigation be disputed by the public attor- ney it would be sufficient for the claim ants to give a guarantee that the legal costs will be paid should the case go against them, for the suit to proceed un- decided by due process of law.
 "The Portuguese government does not interfere in the matter and certainly will make no attempt to seize any privaite property, whatever the uses to which it may have been put in the past"
 The Portuguese minister today in- formed the Associated Press that he had received from his government a cable gram denying that anti-government plots has been discovered in Portugal Only one individual was arrested and he was person who was making business of in- venting rumors of plots

 The Portuguese legation issued an of f1eial communication this evening in which it is asserted that a conspiracy in Lisbon against the government was based solely upon the arrest at the prin- cipal capital of man who had circulated . similar rumor throughout Portugal.
