HOW WE DO THINGS
 IN BIRMINGHAM!

The open air service given yester- day afternon on the corner of First avenue and Nineteenth street, by the officers and members of the Salvation Army, who are attending the southern congress of that rganization that is being held in Birmingham, attracted much attention and was attended by a large crowd There were about 10 uniformed members of the army in the meeting, which included d band of 12 pieces. At the conclusion of the serv- ice the representative of the several southern states gave short talks on the work in their respective states and much good natured bantering was in dulged in by the several speakers, and many reefrences were made to
 god and bad Birmingham. At the conclusion of the service Colonel Holz asked for a contribution from the crowd of $10. Before he got through speak Ing the small change began to shower on the drum. Some one threw a bill tightly waded dp in the ring, and on smoothing 1t out it was found to be a $10 bill. which called forth many pleasant &clamations from the as sembled salvationists.
 That's how we do things in Bir- mingham." shouted Captain Bourtence with smile.. and again the silver con tributions poured on the drum.

DISCUSS PLAN OF
 SENATOR ALDR|CH The Monetary Commission
 Meets Tomorrow PLAN IS CRITICIZED The Western Economic Society De- bates Proposed Currency Sys-
 tem-Hulbert Thinks Con-
 centrates Too Much

Chicago, November 11.-Former United states Senator Nelson w. Aldrich, chair man of the national monetary commis-
 sion, at a meeting of the Western Eco
 homie society today, heard his plan for currency reform variously approved, praised and criticised.
 The national monetary commission is not expected to have any sessions be- fore Monday. It's meetings, according to Chairman Aldrich, will be in the form of conferences and will not be public. The report of the subcommittee un- der Vice Chairman E. B. Vreeland, which has been touring the west hearing ex-
 pressions on the new plan, will not be made now.
 Fear of unlimited imitation and over ex- tension of credit should the proposed plan become law was suggested by E. D. Hull bert, vice president of the Merchants Loan and Trust company of Chicago. "The plan to concentrate in the reserve association the cash reserves now held by banks and to use this fund as basis for an issue of credit currency, which eventually would become our principal cir culating medium" he said, would be an association of the banKs not only for mutual protection, but also for the pur- pose of capitalizing and exploiting their combined credit and good will so that it could be loaned to those members of the association willing to pay for it.
 MT Aldrich says that under this plan
 banks will be able to 'replenish their re-
 serves indefinitely
 "This is equivalent to saying that banks may expand their loans indefinitely. Sc long as the reserve association stands ready at all times to convert commercial paper into circulating notes. when used by the banks to purchase more commer- cial paper, which in turn could be con- verted into circulating notes, and so on it would seem there would be little check on imitation except such self restraint as each individual bank might be able to exercise.
 This plan is designed to create in this country great discount paper which does not now exist
 Prof. E. W. Kemmerer of Cornell uni versity declared the plan was the ''best proposed yet" although criticising it on the ground that it is too much under the control of the banking fraternity. The programme of the Economic so- ciety comprising further discussions Of the proposed Aldrich law, was continued immediately after luncheon.
 Mir Aldrich, Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh and A. c. Bartlett, president of the National Citizens league, are sched uled to speak at night meeting.

SOUTHERN MAINTAINS
 GOOD SCHEDULE

A remarkable record for maintaining published schedules is shown by the per formance of 10 of the Southern railways $ trains, considered most important on ac- count of the heavy travel over them as well as on account Of rapidity of sched- ule and the distance traversed. The "Carolina special, considered for the 200 days from April to October r. and the Memphis special" the Birmingham srecial,' the New York, Atlanta and New Orleans limited' (Nos. 37 and 3S), and the United States fast mal'' (Nos. 8 and 36). are considered for the six months ending October 16.
 Out of an aggregate of 1872 trains op- erated, 1858, or S9 per cent, arrived at destination on time. The best individual record was made by No. 35. which, out of 1S4 days, arrived in Atlanta on time 174 days. or 95 per cent. No. 36 arrived in Washington time 146 days, or @ per cent. For the same period No. 37 arrived in Atlanta on time 161 days, or S6 per cent; the Birmingham special'' arrived in Birmingham on time 161 days or SS per cent, and arrived in Washington on time 164 days, or S9 per cent.

"TRIAL BY JURY"
 TO BE PRESENTED
Cantata at O'Brien Opera House IS
 Years Ago to Be Repeated By Same Principals

Eighteen years ago Gilbert and Sulli- van,s famous operatic cantata. Trial by Jury" was presented at the O'Brien opera house by a company of local people. The production was staged and produced un- der the direction of Prof. Fred l.. Grambs, then director of the orchestra at that playhouse.
 Among those who took part in the pro- duction were: A. Latady, who took the part of judge; Hugh Morrow and J. A. Yeates. Many of the others who took part in the performance have moved from the district. some have passed to the great beyond.
 This bright and pleasing operetta will be again rendered by the choir of the Church of the Advent, assisted by a large chorus, on December i, and again under the direction of Professor Grambs. Again will MT. Latady tread the boards and portray the same part he took IS years ago, in which he made a decided hit. It goes without saying that MT. Latady. profiting by IS years of experience, will again cover himself with glory. Taking the part of the judge of the court, he will introduce in the typical song, Why I Am a Judge" a number of verses of his own composition, dealing with local subjects ranging from suffragettes to the Osler theory.
 Miss Queine Neely will take the part of the plaintiff in the case, which by the way is a breach of promise suit, and be- side being splendid vocalist, is pos sessed of charming personality and of much ability.
 There will be over 40 people in the cast which will include a large chorus of trained voices. The operetta is written in best vein of the two noted composers, and in brightness of lines and musical melody ranks with "Pinafore,' Pa tence," "Mikado" and other famous com positions of the authors.
 The cantata. will be given on Friday, December 1. at the Advent parish house with a special matinee Saturday. Decem- ber Z, at s o'clock.
 The principals in the cast are: Miss Queine Nicely. plaintiff; MT. Charles B. Brown, defendant; MT. J. A. Bate, coun- sel for the plaintiff; MT. Harry l.. Gull yer, bailiff: MT. J. w. Cox. foreman of the jury, and MT. A. Latady, judge of the court.

W. A. Spencer operating a store al Wy lam, and lumber company at Corei, testified in behalf of the, defense that the smaller buyer who was compelled to re- ccive his shipments over the trunk lines was laboring under great handicap. He swore that in being compelled to pay a higher rate, in being compelled to haul his material from Ensley or Bessemer to his places of business was a discrimination, and source of perpetual irritation. He sta ted that his extra expense due to the fact that the trunk lines would not per nit the Birmingham Southern to partici- pate in the joint tariff amounted to be- tween $500 and S250O per annum. He stat ed that he was compelled in view of the ''selfshness of the trunk lines to use two teams and drivers for the purpose of hauling incoming freight from Ensley and Bessemer.
 On cross-examnation he stated that during the ownership of the Birmingham Southern by the Louisville and Nashville, he had been able to secure the Birming- ham flat rate on freight, but that be- fore that ownership, the present condi- tions, practically speaking, prevailed. He stated that were the trunk lines to be permitted to run by his door, the handi- cap of which he made complaint would be removed
 
 panies on the Birmingham Southern who testified or were excused because their testimony was corroborative of that of MT. Spencer, were Messrs. Lacey, Bennett Dozier, Hassirffier, Prigot, Sloan, Hardy and Kerr.
 For the great part of the day Traffic Freight Manager Carey of the Birming- ham Southern was on the stand. He was the technical expert of the Birmingham Southern, as l.. Green, traffic freight man ager of the Southern, had been for the protestant railroads.
 His testimony embraced the history Of the Birmingham Southern, its duties, it's services, it's extensions, it's tonnage, it's equipment, and it's status in the mineral district as contrasted againt that of oth- CT lines.
 His testimony tended to prove that the Birmingham Southern discharges the duties of a common carrier and, therefore should be permitted to share in the sgen- eral traffic agreement. His reference to maps was frequent.
 Auditor Winslow's testimony concern ing the financial relationship existing be- tween the Tennessee Coal Iron and Rail- road company and the Birmingham Sorith- erii was the feature of the night and final session of the Investigating board

START CAMPAIGN
 ID RAISE S12,OOO Associated Charities Will
 Canvass the City NOVEMBER 23 TO 30
Finance Committee Has Addressed Letters to Prominent Citizens Asking Support in Raising
 Funds for Next Year

To expedite the collection of public ciated Charities the finance committee of that organization will inaugurate a sweeping canvass of the city to raise the s12.O0O necessary to carry on next years work. The campaign will last TOT one week, beginning with November 23 and ending on the eve of Thanksgiving.
 This method of raising the budget for the Associated Charities is intended to become an annual custom and is to be planned very much along the lines of the rapid campaigns conducted by the Y. M. c. A. and Y. w. c. A. during last year.
 Letters requesting the cooperation of nearly 500 business and professional men of the city have been mailed out by Sec- retary McGrath and when the responses to these have been received the acting committees will be appointed. These committees will be assigned to secure contributions from each city block. with a special committee for each office build ing. The finance committee Is composed of John l.. Raul, chairman Richard w. Massey, J. D. Moore, J. H. Phillips, R. r. 1. Sydney J. Bowie, George B. Tarrant and Robert Jemison, Jr. The following is a copy of the written communication sent to many men asking aid in the cam- paign:
 The Letter
 "Dear Sir--The finance committee of the Associated Charities has decided to make a whirlwind campaign of the city during the week preceding Thanksgiving Day, November 23 to 30, for the purpose of raising the s12,O00, which is absolutely necessary for carrying on the work dur ing the ensuing year. We wish this to be the only appeal made for another F months. Your cooperation is necessary and we believe it your duty, as it is ours. to devote at least a portion of the time specified in systematic canvass of the community in order to raise the needed sum. The territory will be parcelled out, so no one committee nor committeeman will have more ground to cover than can be eanvassed in a short time and with little effort. Won't you help us?
 ''The Associated Charities is the com munty vehicle for relief of tine poor, the neglected and the helpless. who other wise would be an individual burden upon you or someone else. It's work in the past speaks for itself. The personal worry it has lifted from you individually by maintaining an official charity clear ing house is alone sufficient reason to induce you to help us. Please let us know whether you will aid us in this work. Kindly sign and mail the en- closed postal Your propmt compliance will be appreciated. Yours for Birmlng- ham. THE FINANCE COMMITTEE OF THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES"
