GLASS ATTACKS
 TAX COMMISSION

Montgomery. August 22.--tSpeciall Charging that the state tax eommis- sion has Attempted to make Mobile, Montgomery and Jefferson counties pay most of the states expenses and that discrimination has been shown, Frank P. Glass attacked the state taxing sys- tenn in an address to the Business Mems league this evening. MT. Glass declared that the state tax commis- sion Is a makeshift that the present taxing system Is a mass of patchwork. :. would guarantee to every person fair tax assessments and prevent discrim- ination. He asserted that citizens would be willing to pay taxes on 100 per cent valuation if they know that others would be assessed on the same basis and that discrimination would not be shown.
 Ignorant legislators were charged with present conditions and Mir. Glass declared citizens should see that best persons are sent to the legislature to work out big problems. The attack on the tax commission was made during a suggestion meeting of the league.
 The organization ordered the presi- dent to appoint a committee to confer commission about charges of graft brought against certain peace officers. The grand jury recently criticised the sheriff's department because of the lax way in which business is carried on.

 "Of the total of less than s16o,O00 that we spent from our Washington head quarters over the entire nation more than $50 00) was expended in the printing and distribution of literature and for run ming expenses of our Washington bu- rcau. This covers everything except what was expended by local committees and except the expenses of special trains for Colonel Roosevelt, which were paid foi from another fund"

Constantinople, August 22.-Ali Danish, who yesterday was appointed vali of saIonlki is offered the post of minister of foreign affairs and Halim Bey, a member of the Turkish senate, has been rendered the portfolio of minister of justice. Halim Fey is reported to have accepted his ap- pointment, but it is doubtful whether Ali Danish will enter the cabinet.
 In political circles the ministerial ap- pointments are considered mere stop gaps and the resignation of the cabinet Is be- lieved to be only question of days when an effort will be made to form a more homogeneous ministry.
 According to information which reached here today the Montenegrin cabinet has threatened to resign unless King Nicholas sanctions certain military measures. It is reported Montenegro is continuing to make offensive military preparations. but the situation is not regarded as serious.

Napoleon's Profession of Faith

From La Revenue deS Deux Mohues.
 In the shorthand notes of some or the proceedings at Napolcons council of state a most interesting passage IS that which relates to the preparations for the coro- nation. The question was raised: Should the Pope be invited? The Emperor con- sidered that he should-and for an inter esting reason:
 There are religious dissenslons among us All trouble of that sort will subside when the Pope comes. Nobody will want to argue when everybody is saying: I have seen the Pope
 There followed a striking profession of Imperial faith:
 'sThe Emperor ought always to be of the religion of the majority of his subjects. Changes of religion are nowadays no longer taken seriously. There are many roads to heaven. and onest men have al- ways been able to find their own way there from the time of Socrates to that of Quaker. There you have my credo.'
 It is uncertain whether it was the Emperor himself or only the reporter who believed Quaker to be the surname of one of t,e reformers.

HALE RESIDENCE IS | DESTROYED BY FIRE Five Small Children Just
 Escape Burning ON SHADES MOUNTAIN First Reports in Birmingham Were That Shades Mountain Hotel Was
 Burning-Father and Boy
 Rescues Babies
ON SHADES MOUNTAIN

Last evening between 9 and 1o o'clock, George c. Hale's beautiful country home on Shades mountain was burned to the ground. The loss was complete. every bit of furniture being destroyed. Mr. Hale. the owner and resident. estimated the total loss at $500. This was partially covered by insurance amounting to $2250 on the dwelling and s550 on the contents.
 The blaze was first discovered by Mr. Hale on the ground floor between the dining room and the sitting room at about o'clock. Assisted by his wife, they made a spirited attempt to get control of the fire. After fighting 1t for about 20 minutes Mrs. Hale ran to the stairs with the intention of get ting her children out of bed. There were five little ones, three boys and two girls, and all were sound asleep. Roy Hopkins, friend was spending the week with the Hales and had just gone upstairs. Half way up the flight Mrs Hale fainted, overcome by the smoke MT. Hale ran to his wife and stumbled out of doors with her.
 It was useless to call for help as the nearest neighbor was about quar- ter of mile from the residence. Rush ing inside, the father found himself blocked by the fire, now roaring up the full length of the steps For a minute he halted then through the fire and smoke to his sleeping children he rushed. Upstairs he found Roy Hop kins trying to fix a way to let some of the babies down from the window. Together Hopkins and the father got the children down from the top floor and by that time Mrs. Hale had re- vived
 When the last of the babies was lowered the man and boy rushed for the stairway, hoping that they would be able to go down that way and pos sibly save something as they ran out. As the two darted for the steps the second floor and the roof fell with . crash Back to the window they rushed and after several attempts got to the ground.
 After that it was only matter of watching the house burn. The struc- ture was new and the wind strong and in about one hour after the first flame was discovered, there was nothing left save the brick foundations and the dying embers to show where the home had stood
 MT. Hale was of the opinion that the blaze had been started by mice running over some matches in the hall way The kitchen, where big fire was burning in a coal. stove. was the last to burn, giving evidence that it was not from the fire in the stove that tiA> conflagration started.
 About 10 o'clock reports reached Bir- mingham that the Shades mountain ho- tel was burning. Investigation, how ever, proved that the reflection in the sky was caused by the burning Hale home which is located not far from the hotel.
 George Hale is proprietor of gen eral supply store at Oxmoor and oper- ates the bus line between the Edge wood car line and the Louisville ana Nashville railroad station at ONmoor and the Shades mountain hotel
