COPPER MERGER HAS
SHARPENED PENCILS

The formati of the Inspiration Con-

for the purpose of taking over the In

the country. as far as known, and west
ern stockholders are doing some extreme
~ busy figuring In the endeavor TO reach
something like the probable basis OF the
deal AS far as reports from the east go
at present the deal covers only the In
spiration and Live Oak, but there are
those who believe the Miami may be In
cluded yet.
II is pointed out that the capitalize

a sufficient amount of stock may he re-
tanned for at least two purposes. one for
taking over the Miami eventually and the
other for rcdneming bonds which may be
necessary for the further cquippinS OF
the big COMPANY
There are those too. who see in the
determination OF the Inspiration Copper
officials TO proceed with the erection OF
the concentrator an indication that the
Miami NAV not be included In the deal.

TWO CENTS ADVANCE
IN PRICE OF COPPER

II was but n few months ago that tne
copper metal was quoted at 10 cents per
pound. while today 1t Is selling at if
cents. This advance OF cents has re-
suited in enormous increased earnings
to the copper-produclnG companies. say
Thompson, Towlc & Co.
~ the time the metal was selling at
Il cents all computations for investors
were based on that price OF the metal
Ii Is now surprising 10 note, in looking
back over the market prices. that q
large number OF copper stocks have not
apprcciablY advanced from their quota
tlons ut that TINT. despite the fact that
the metal is cents higher per pound.
The additional income due 10 this .
cent advance is in many cases enormous.
In certain Instances earnings have been
doubled. What il means 10 some of the
largest producers is emphasized by the
fact that 10 Anaconda II gives si,60o. =
ono and TO Utah Copper $500. 900 addi-
tional income per annum.

ng." The remarks of Professor Doster

HE. 1He IeildrhS Ol IIolcSSoT DOSlei were directed, with the employment of very ipgenius chart. to an analysis of mans whole Knowledge of today.
 He proceeded to show the compara- tive values of the fundamental branches of study, namely, art, science. history, language and mathematics, and their relations, and very aptly illustrated the educating of a child by supposing that he be placed in the 'pentagonal tower of ignorance" looking out on the five fields of Knowledge acquired by man through the processes of civil ization. "The situation of an unlearned child" he said, bears striking anal ogy to that of primitive man with the world before him."
 The lecture of Professor Doster made a deep impression on the gathering and when he had closed with his remarks a unanimous vote of thanks was rendered him for his effort in behalf of the Jefferson county association as well as of advancement of education through out the state in general.
 Before the adjournment of the meet ing a resolution on the death of Prof. w. W. Wilson was read before the meeting and adopted.

GOOD ROADS TRAIN WILL BE
 HERE TWO DAYS THIS WEEK Public Is Invited To Inspect Exhibit and to Attend Lectures
 Given By Experts On Highway IS Construction

the very valuable information on good roads which it affords.
 The two cars of the train cannot fail to interest the people and visitors in Birmingham, to whom an invitation Is extended by those conducting the train to be present. In the coach pro- vided with stereopticon equipment are views showing all the advantages of good roads and some of the disad- vantages of bad ones. There is shown for instance, the manner in which doc tors are caught in the ruts of bad
 roads while on their way to patients,
 undertakers wagons delayed on the way to cemeteries; automob1lists
 thrown on the road by boulders lying
 in the way.
 l A view which appeals especially to
 farmers and all interested in the cotton
 industry is that showing two loads of cotton one from a bad road territory and
 the other sfrom a good road territory, the difference in weight, showing the profits and losses that come from good and bad roads.
 In the second car are enlarged photo graphs showing some of the finest roads in the world, including the well-nign perfect roads of France. These photo graphs illustrate nearly every phase of the good roads movement. For the farm CTS and experts there are working models showing materials that make the best roads, the way a boggy road can be inn proved by mixing sand with clay, how macadam and other hard roads are built, and practical suggestions which will be or value in the case of each individual. If the farmer has been at loss how to im- prove his road he can find out all about 1t by attending the train exhibit.
 The tour of this train will be one of the most extensive ever arranged for an educational campaign, covering as it will practically all important points in the ter ritory traversed by the Southern railway, the Mobile and Ohio railroad, the Alabama Northern railway and affiliated lines. It will last until October, coming to a close at Richmond, where good roads conven- ton is to be held In that month.
 The plan for running this Road Im- provement Train" was adopted by the Southern after consultation with the United States office of public roads and the American Association for Highway Improvement, of which President w. w. Finley, of the Southern, is a director
