The colored undertakers of the city are showing signs of energy in bid ding for emergency calls by the police From time immemorial, it has been the custom for police to call the white un- dertakers in all cases, and thinking this unjust.to them, the colored undertakers have directed the following letter tc Judge A. O. Lane, commissioner of jus tice for the city:
 Birmingham, November 19, 1911 "Hon. A. O. Lane, Commissioner, Bir- mingham, Ala.
 Dear Sir: We, the licensed embalm- CTS and undertakers for our people in this city, respectfully petition you to instruct police officers to call some col ored undertaken whenever they find need of such service among our people Our reason for making this petition is based upon these facts:
 "1. We pay licenses and taxes and dc business strictly for our own people. "2. We do the work for less expense to our people than other undertakers charge.
 "s. We are equipped to do the work promptly and efficiently.

The Policeman's club in the city of Bir- mingham has run it's course by order of Chief Bodeker. Hereafter the trademark of police the world over will not be in evidence in Greater Birmingham.
 An order, simply worded in the lan- guage of Chief Bodeker. penned in his own handwriting on a sheet of police department paper, has set a precedent which will probably be followed by many other cities in which the metropolitan order of police is followed.
 The following is the order which has been read to the three shifts of police:
 Police Department: Hereafter no pat rolman will be allowed to carry a club. All patrolmen are hereby notified to turn their clubs in to Desk Sergeants Weaver and Donelson.
 NO officer or patrolman must hit a prisoner except in self defense or to protect himself from bodily harm.
 T will expect the captains and ser- geants to see that this order is strictly complied with.

CLASS CONFIRMED AT ADVENT CHURCH Bishop Beckwith Speaks to Them on Importance
 of Step Taken

Bishop Beckwith of the Episcopal diocese of Alabama confirmed a class of 16 first communcants with a very im- pressive confirmation ritual at the Church of the Advent yesterday morning at the II o'clock service. The class was com posed of girls, boys, young men and young women who have been receiving instruc- tions for the past several weeks under the guidance of the rector, Dr. w. E. Evans.
 The morning sermon was spoken by pr. Evans, who chose for his theme. '"The Duty of Declaring Yourself a Member of Christ's Church" Dr. Evans set forth the principles of Christianity and virtue of humanity that should be practiced in shop, office, at home. or at work, on all occasions. that would be the declaration of the individuals citi- zenship in heaven and an index to his stand for righteousness or sin. Tempta- tions, said pr. Evans, are not likely to arise or be placed before the man Who is well known as church member, and it is his duty to show plainly that he is one of the soldiers of the cross.
 Bishop Beckwith addressed the group of young people standing before him as com municants of the Episcopal church for their initial observation, after the con- firmaton ceremonies, cautioning them to beware of the encroachment of worldly sin upon their new found spiritual strength in the seemingly innocent and harmless guise that it sometimes appears He told them of the responsibility now resting upon them as avowed members of the church and the possible influence their leadership in religious matters would have upon their friends and neigh bors. With the bishops benediction ant his simple words of warning for the obe dienee of the laws of the church to whicl | they had just given themselves, deep il their memories the communicants re turned to the vestry room, whence they had entered the chancel of the church for their confirmation.
 Dr. Evans formally opened the doors of the church yesterday previous to the confirmation to all those who had been attending the Advent for some time, were familiar with the tenets of the Episco- palian faith, and desired to become a member of the church.
