HOUSE OF COMMONS
 WORKS VERY LATE
Bills Curtailing Power of Lords Brings Up Lively
 Debate

London, April 24-The house of com mons sat very late tonight in its dis cussion of the second clause of the parli- ament bill which relates to the curtail- ment of the powers of the house of seeking to exclude all sorts of meas. ures from the operation of the bill.
 The anti-home rule amendment pro- posing to exclude "any bill to establish a separate parliament for Ireland" which was moved by John B. Lonsdale, union- ist member for Mid Armagh, was de- feated by a vote of 2s4 to 190. The di- vision of this amendment showed no cross voting, but a few liberals, includ- of the Earl of Roseberry, abstained iron. voting.
 Both Premier Asquith and Home Secre- tary Churchill reiterated the govern ments intention to proceed with the bill for the reform of the house of lords during the present parliament.
 The anti-home rule amendment to the veto bill, proposing to exclude from the operation of the measure "a bill to~es- tablish separate parliament and executive for Ireland" was moved by John B. Lons- dale, unionist member for Mid Armagh, in the house of commons today.
 LOsdale said he desired to see the queylion of home rule removed altogeth- CT from the controversy regarding the vote of the lords. The government was at the mercy of the nationalists, whose oki ta cI, h1 constitution he said, in order to risremember the em. pire by driving Ireland Into national in. dependence.
 James Ramsay Macdonald, socialist and labor member for Leicester, imme' diately took the field in support of the nationalists and contended that the labor ites were wholly in favor of the resolu- tion demanded for Ireland and the pro- jected treaty of peace with the United States has been made possible by the promise of home rule in Ireland.'
 Premier Asquith gave the house to un- derstand that the cabinet was unswerv- ingly of the opinion that the electors had returned them to power with the full knowledge that they would give Ireland a measure of home rule.
 The opposition of dollar tdictation fur ther emphasized the fact, the premier said, that home rule for Ireland was an issue in the election. He left no doubt of his intention to abide by his pledge to introduce some sort of home rule meas ure.
 A. J. Balfour, leader of the opposition spoke in favor of the amendment The government, he said, had hidden home rule in the back ground during the cleo tions, and now having sureptitiously att tained power they were going to try tt force home rule down the throats of the people, who he believed if the issue were placed directly before them would reject 1t as they did in 1885 and 1s93
 Duncan Vernon Piere, from the north division of Aberdeen, gave an interesting turn to the debate by moving an amend ment to the amendment exempting the establishment of ah Irish parliament un- less similar legislators were provided for the other parts of the united Kingdom. He hoped the whole question of devolutior would 7be settled eventually by common consent. ~

$10,OOO FOR THE ANN|STON COLLEGE .-fes- Four Thousand Dollars of Fund Raised At Banquet
 Last Night

| A banquet was enjoyed at the Country club last night by the local Presbyterians who took this as means of inausuratins
 a campaign for s1o,oOO with which to in-
 college at Anniston, and to further en- large the institution to meet the grow ing demand. 4 The banquet proved to be most enc
 thusiastc affair and the spirit of the oc- casion rose to the height of $4o0O con- tribution made on the spot by those who were present. The other 5000 it is ex- pected will be secured within a few mora
 days if the donations last night are to be followed by like responses from the
 members of this denomination in the city of Birmingham at large.
 A. H. Ford acted as toastmaster at
 the function at which the campaign was formally inaugurated and he presd ed
 over the board with exceeding grace and propriety. The guest of the evening was the Rev. James I. Vance of Nashville, who made 6 strong address in which he set forth, first. the importance of tho small college, and, second, the non-sec- tarian Christian college.
 Dr. Vance spoke al length on the func-
 ton of Christian education and pro. ceeded to show that the foundation of tho country is based on the teachings of the
 Bible. He expressed clearly the necessity
 for faith in the life of men who rule in a republic and explained that there should be not merely an intellectual training but an all-round development of manhood.
 Other speakers during the evening were
 L. Sevier, John H. Miller, Dr. John w. Stagg, John w. Sioley and others. All entered heartily into the project of rais- ing the necessary funds for the enlarge ment of the synodicai college at Annis- ton and all were or the opinion that there would be no difficulty in raising the full $10,000 which is to be put with another s1o,0o0 already secured, making a total of $20, 000 which is to be further augmented by donation of s15,oo0 given by the city of Anniston.

ADJUSTMENTS
Classy Schiller Players

In 'Mrs. TempleS Ielegram' tne CLASSY Schiller players at the Bijou last night surpassed even their effort of last week in ''The Girl of the Golden West" which was highly enjoyed by Birmingham peo' pie and was greeted by a large audience. The players put themselves into their parts last night with a great deal of vim and as a result the delightful farce had its value greatly enhanced as an amusing and entertaining piece. A
 To begin with, when the curtain rose a most pleasing stage setting was disclosed. which was fortunate inasmuch as there is no change throughout the entire play. There were long waits between acts and this added to the swift movement of the production, which was in keeping with the lively spirit pervading the plot.
 The plot Is made up of a series of at. tempts on the part of husband, Jack Temple" to explain to his wife, Mrs. Temple," his absence from home until the "following morning. He has been caught up in mid air in a. ferris wheel accident over night and as 1t happens meets with the wife of one of his old friends, who Is also one of the passengers in the car. In clearing himself from his wife's suspicious he secures the aid of his friends, who plays an alias part of MT. Brown" In the denouement of the plot it turns out that the woman in the car is the wife of the friend and 1t is here that the amusing situation reaches the climax. The play is developed through many funny incidents which are always made by the Schiller players to give up all that they contain of the mirth provoking quality.
 In the presentatiop.las night MT Rollo Lloyd was easily the one who distin- guished himself by his acting, He never lost chance to make use of his part and he threw into it an individual element which made the character of Frank Fuller" the friend of INT. Temple" all the more worthy. Miss Nora Shelby as Mrs. Temple won the audience over with her usual charm and vivacious act ing, and MT. John Todd as Jack Temple likewise comes in for creditable mention. MT. Forrest seabury as "Wigson," the butler, was also loudly applauded by the audience and was a great factor in the many comic situations. In fact every one of the cast played his part extremely well and all worked together with splen- did combination, as was shown by the continuous applause with which they were greeted oy the large house.

Handwriting of Charles Dickens

In the February Strand MT. John
 Holt Sch ooling contributes very in
 teresting and exhaustive article on
 "The Signatures of Charles Dickens illustrated with fifty-five autographs written at various times of his life. Among them Is a very famous sigma ture. the original of which is on great parchment called Deed of Li- cense Assignment and Covenants Re specting a Work called The Pickwick Papers" and which. after preamble, contains the words: Whereas the
 said Charles Dickens is the author of Q Book or Work entitled The Post humous Papers of the Pickwick Club which has been recently printed and published in twenty parts or num- bers," etc. It Is probable. says MT
 Schooling, that the fact of the seal
 being placed between Charles and
 Dickens prevented the flourish which almost invariably = accompanied his signatures on business documents;
 the marked enlargement of this sigma ture takes the place of the flourish
 and shows an unconscious emphasis of the ego. It would be almost unreason-
 able for us to expect that so impress
 sonable a man, who was also feeling his power and fame, could abstain
 from showing outward signs of his
 own consciousness of abnormal suc- cess. Yet in the private letters of
 Dickens the simple "C. D. is very ire
 quent. It may at once be said that
 this point of difference Is alike inter-
 esting to the student of gesture and
 to the student of Dickens character.
 He was certainly a very able man of
 business, and the wording of his 'busi-
 ness" letters fully bears out the Idea
 conveyed by his "business" signature so to speak--that Dickens was fully aware of his own powers, and that,
 quite fairly he did not omit to im- press the fact upon other people when he thought fit. Both the wording and the signature of many of his private letters are simple and unostentatious to high degree. This curious fact ought to be remembered when people talk about Dickens 'conceit" and Hove of show" My explanation is, I think both logical and true.

 Yes" said the bald man with the shifty eye.s 'I tried honesty once though you might not think it. l was naught but a kid at the time. when one day happened to see an old swell drop a sixpence. Having been plumbed about honesty, I picked it up and gave it back to him. He was a man who ap- preciated virtue and told me I was a good boy and should grow up to be a millionaire if I washed me neck reg'lar and wore flannel next the skin, and he gimme shilling.
 "I thought I'd found paying game, nd so little while later I run up to m old lady with the shilling and says, Please, mum, you dropped this, and I am a honest boy" thinking of course, that she would give me two shillings and moral lesson, as she ought to have done by rights.

 The news of the armistice has pro- duced a noticeable relief from the high tension which has prevailed for many weeks among all classes in the capital and particularly among the foreign resi-. dents. The armistice was quite general ly regarded as a forerunner of perma- nent peace agreement.
 That Gen. Bernardo Reyes who Ia about to return to Mexico at the invita- ton of General Diaz, will be offered the portfolio of war was the opinion ex- pressed by a member of the cabinet. Gen eral Reyes popularity with the people at the time of his going to Europe IS months ago is the basis for speculation that he may be given still higher po- sition. -.
 In the. event of the retirement of Gen eral Diaz and the naming of provision al president pending the calling of g. spe- cial election to name his successor. it was regarded not improbable that Reyes would be asked to fill that post. In this event 1t was believed likely that he would be named as ono of the presidential can. didates.
