In the presence of several thousand people, with brass bands playing q national air, flags flying and people cheering, the Great White Way" of the busy city of Ensley was formally opened last night. Promptly at 8 o'clock as the last note of a sbugle call died away. the lights were flashed on and a cheer arose from the as- sembled multitude that could have been heard the length and breadth of Jones valley. The opening of the white way was an event that equalled or sur passed any civic celebration ever held in the Steel City. ...
 It was all that could be desired. It Is indeed and in truth great white way" and the promoters of the scheme with the result.
 The numerous arcs along Avenue E shed a brilliant soft light of great power and beautiful effect and express sions of praise and admiration we're heard on every hand. The musical programme and addresses were excel lent. in fact, every detail was carried out to a perfect success.
 A full measure of praise is due the Italian band of Ensley, composed en- tirely of residents of the Steel City, and was under the. direction of Prof. S. Costa. They acquitted themselves admirably and added much to the pleasure of the occasion.
 Dr. b. w. Averyt was master oe ceremonies and performed his duties like, a veteran. He introduced the speakers with remarks that were apt and fitting to the occasion and carried out the programme without a single hitch. James H. Leath, who was the first speaker, made characteristic talk commenting the white way move ment and extolling the enterprise of the promoters.

LEE COWART BUSY . ON IMMIGRATION Thinks Law Not Compre-

 Montgomery Aftermath
 of Option Fight

Montgomery, February 10.-(Special) ) Lee ,Cowart, commissioner of immigra- tion of the state, is familiarizing him self with the details of his department and making arrangements to carry out an extensive programme in the way of advertising for prospective homeseek- CTS
 The laws covering the immigration department, however, are regared by MT. Cowart as inadequate, and a bill will be introduced in the house within the next few days making the present measures more specific as well as tend ing to allow more latitude to the com missioner In the matter of expendi- lures. It Is understood that the law providing for the appropriation to the department Is not sufficiently compre- hensive, the chief provision being made for the travelling expenses of the com missioner without reference to the oth- CT expenditures.
 MT. Cowart has been busy arranging g for his campaign in the interest of inn migration, and since his appointment to the office of commissioner has given the subject much study and mature thought

Copies of Subscription List Sent To Nearly Every Alabama Presby. terian Who Knew Beloved Di-
 vine-May Erect Monument

At meeting of the Handley Memorial association held Friday afternoon plans were matured for taking up a systematic canvass in behalf of the movement. w. c. Montgomery, chairman of the commit tee in charge of the distribution of the subscription lists. reported that the secrs- tary of the association, J. R. Hornady, had 300 copies of this list printed, in ac- cordance with the instructions of the ex- ecutive committee. and that a large num- Der of them had been distributed. He stated that copies had been placed in the hands of number of leading citizens of Birmingham. and copies had also been mailed to every Presbyterian minister in of the various congregations who had known Dr. Handley be given an opportun- ity to subscribe to the fund. Numerous acknowledgements had been received and It had been made clear that the people generally were ready to cooperate in the movement.
 It was also reported that quite a num- Der of subscriptions had been made. though it was Impossible to ascertain tho total amount subscribed to date because none of the lists had been. turned in.
 There was some discussion of the form the proposed memorial Is to take, tho statement being made that this point should be settled as early as possible owing to the fact that a large number of citizens were waiting to make their subscriptions until this had been deter mined. ss
 In view of this 1t was determined to request the executive committee. which has this mattef in charge, to hold . meeting in the next few days and decide just what form the memorial will take. As soon as formal announcement is made upon this point, other lists will be dis tributed and the work taken up in a vigorous and Systematic manner Lists will be placed at convenient points in the city and everyone will be given an opportunity to subscribe, whether the amount be large or small. At the sane time individuals in whose hands lists have been placed will push the work with vigor.
 It was the unanimous opinion of those present that there would be no difficulty in securing the necessary money as soon as the nature of the memorial was an- nounced. as citizens Uf all classes and creeds have expressed desire to have a part In the work
 In the enforced absence of pr. John L.. Parker, the meeting yesterday after noon was presided over by pr. E. H. sholl. meeting of the executive committee will be held the first of next week, .n all probability, and 1t Is believed that an announcement will then be made as to the form the memorial will take. The general opinion Is that 1t will be a mar ble or bronze monument, though this is a point that must be decided by the ex- ecutive committee, which has full author l ity in the matter.

and predicted many good results from the movement to beautify the city.
 Ira Sandifer, who was introduced as a man who was born and reared within the city limits of Ensley'' made a very happy talk, highly complimentary to those who made the white way possible and to the future prospects of the Steel City Dr. R. M Cunningham was the next speaker and in his usual able manner highly entertained the crowd with a speech sparkling with wit and happy all fusion. He reviewed briefly the history of the city and paid a fine tribute to the memory of it's founder, Col 'Enoch Ensley.
 If Erskine Ramsay had not made so much money as an industrial promoter and mine operator he might have taken to the lecture platform and made money, for he has one speech which he told last night for the 514th time, which has all ready brought him fame and would have brought him fortune. It is an imperson- ation of Dr. Cunningham delivering his famous speech, Look at Me Now
 Mir. Ramsay's effort was received last night with as much pleasure and as great delight as when he first gave it years ago
 F. B. Parker made the closing address and despite the fact that the preceding SpeAkeIS Hdu covered the ground, ne neid the close attention of the crowd and en- tertained them highly. 2 The assembled crowd was both atten. tive, and appreciative and bestowed lib- eral applause on the several speakers. At the conclusion the band played Dixie and an outburst of cheering from the crowd surpassed the vociferous- ness that marked the opening exercises.
 The large crowd was orderly and good natured, every one seemed to enter into the spirit of the event, and not single incident occurred that marred the suc- cess of the occasion.
 There were visitors present from all over the district, all classes were repre- sented and every one seemed impressed with ths enterprise shown by the iner- chants and business men of the most noted burg in the Birmingham district.
