LOCKWOOD LINE IS FORMALLY BOUGHT BY B. R.,L. & p. CO. Transfers Will Be Given to the Crest of Red
 Mountain S60,000 IS THE PRICE PAID FOR PROPERTY Sloan Announces That New Owners Will Keep Service Up to Stand
 ard Required to Meet
 All Conditions

That the Edgewood car line had been purchased by the Birmingham Railway Light and Power company and would be taken over tomorrow morning. was announced yesterday by Matt S. Sloan. assistant to the president of the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power company. The action was taken upon the authority of the city commission, which body authorized the purchase.
 The new officers of the company, when it Is taken over tomorrow, will be- M S. Sloan, president: George H. Harris, vice president, and Theo H. Rabe, secretary and treasurer The old officers were: stephen Smith, presi- dent George H. Harris, vice president, and c. Troupe Brazelton, secretary and treasurer
 The Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company paid s60,000 for tho line, which Is four miles long. The line extends from the corner of Eff teenth avenue and Twentieth street, south, to the Edgewood Country club. and operates through Rosedale. val Hey densely populated. It was orig inally designed to upbuild Edgewood and has accomplished great deal to that end.
 The line was built by stephen Smith and c. T. Brazelton and associates about two years ago. It was consid- cred difficult feat of engineering and involved a considerable outlay of money. The official opening occurred June 6, 1911, at which Culpepper Exum James Bowron, William Hood, Walter B. Fowlkes and others made addresses Miss Martha Dabney was the sponsor for the event and her maids were among the most popular society girls of Birmingham
 MT. Sloan in announcing the pur- chase of the line said that a car would be operated from Fifteenth avenue to the crest of Red mountain every 15 minutes. Transfers will be given from the South Highlands line to the top of Red mountain, but an extra fare will be charged to the terminal. It is con- sidered probable that the company will operate the car to Rosedale rather than to the crest of the mountain after a short time. That detail is about agreed upon at this time 1t is announced. The remainder of the schedule will
  The company will retain the name of the Birmingham Edgewood Electric railway.
 We have nothing definite outlined on the new purchase" said MT. Sloan. T will say, however, that the Blr- mingham Railway, Light and Power company will not fail to recognize in creased traffic on that line and will keep pace with whatever Is done in that connection. The line will be oper- ated properly and efficiently by this company and every condition will be met with care and attention.
 For the present we will operate car to the crest of the mountain con- meeting with our South Highlands lines We will later turn that car back at Rosedale. That service will be ev- cry 15 minutes and will be entirely ad- equate to meet the needs of the sit uation. The remainder of the line will be operated on the 30 minutes schedule as now maintained"

THINKS HUNTSVILLE HAS PLENTY OF O|L C. B. Kelly Talks of Deep Well That Is Now Being
 Drilled There
We believe our work is at a more satis-

We believe our work Is at more satis- factory stage than at any time in ths history of the company said c. B. Kelly, agent for the New York Alabama oil company, who was in Birmingham yesterday.
 This company has been boring for oil in and around Huntsville for several years. and now has something like nine produc- ing gas wells In Huntsville and at Hazel Green.
 "The main reliance is. of course. being placed In the deep well which we are now drilling fin West Huntsville" said MT. the most eminent geologists that we will find oil In enormous quantities.
 This well Is now down more than 200 feet, and the drill has worked in solid rock for more than 15o0 feet Our progress has been slow because we have had to get tho money as we went but we think we now sec our way clear.
 Some of the best known men in the state are interested In the Madison coun- ty prospects and the assurances of oil sx- perts have been so sincere that the oil is there In large quantities, that these men are determined to try it out to the limit
 The company has had hard struggle because there have been so many dis couragements, and sometimes the work has had to suspend absolutely because of lack of money But 1t Is to the credit of the stockholders and others that they have had the nerve to stick to it. and I believe they are going to be amply repaid for their many discouragements."

 Is Cooperative Plan
 "srhe work of the Hillman hospital is a | cooperative plan by which all of the people of the county take part in caring for the sick and the afflicted when they are not able to provide for their own care | and treatment. It Is work that must be done, and it should be done fin such a way as to reflect credit upon the citizens of the county. The board of revenue. who are familiar with and realize the urgent and immediate needs, have sub- mitted to the people of the county the question of voting a bond issue Of S1OO.- | 900 for additional grounds and an annex to the present hospital building. Those who are familiar with the work at the Hillman hospital and the urgent needs of the institution are most anxious to | have the voters of the county realize that to properly care for the unfortunate sick and afflicted 1t Is absolutely necessary for them to vote for this bond issue
 We urgently ask the voters of the county to cast their votes for and use their influence in securing the sum pro- vided for in the bond issue for the Hill man hospital.
