1. G N. OPENS NEW SHOPS AT BOYLES No Formalities Marked the Change of WOrkmen
  COST IS ABOUT S1,OOO, 1000 Causes Construction of Many New Homes and Stores at Boyles.
 Will Relieve Traffic
 Conditions
COST IS ABOUT 100000

The S1,o00,000 shops of the Louisville and Nashville railroad at Boyles were opened yesterday, as had been announced by T. E. Brooks. superintendent of the com pany. No formalities marked what is considered a very important development here except the blowing of a few whistles and the assembling of many workmen.
 The shops are of a most modern char acter, embodying every new idea in the mechanical world that would be of ser vice in handling the Louisville and Nash vile work at Boyles. They have been in course of construction about two years and were first announced here by B. M. Starks, general maneger of the Louisville and Nashville railroad.
 The shops are arranged in units, among them being the machine shops. boiler shops, paint shops, carpenter shop, black smith shop, power plant, repair shop, and other auxiliary plants. It is generally understood that other plants are to be added to the units now completed.
 The shops have served to create an- other suburb to Birmingham. Many resi- dences have been necessary in order to take care of the army of workmen em- ployed at the shops of the Louisville and Nashville. To this end the Louisville and Nashville lent general encouragement and the little city of Boyles boasts of many new homes and stores of various kinds.
 It is said that the total force of work men has not been supplied at Boyles yet but that additional workmen will be se-' cured and given employment from time to time. The regular force of workmen at the old shops were yesterday instructed to report to Boyles hereafter. They num- Der 200 or more and will reside in Boyles, with a few exceptions.
 Just as soon as matters can be arranged the company will clear up the old Eight eenth street shops and perhaps abandon all the buildings there that have served the Louisville and Nashville as shops for the past 25 years. The company had been discussing the removal of the shops out of town for many years.
 The Louisville and Nashville is the fourth big railroad to seek shop space and switching yards out of the heart of Birmingham. Their move, with the Illi- nois Central, Frisco lines. and Central of Georgia now at Thomas, will perhaps cause other lines to remove their shops and yards out of Birmingham proper.
 The traffic congestion in Birmingham on account of railroad switching has been repeatedly atttacked by commercial ln- terests here as well as city officials but no plan has yet been found for the total eradication of the trouble.

SAMPLES IF MINE
 AIR COLLECTED
Preparations Made for New Gas Laboratory Testing
 Apparatus

The collection of samples of mine air for the experiments to be made by G. A. Burrell, government chemist of the bureau of mines of the department of the interior was begun yesterday at the instruction of Chief State Mine Inspector Nesbitt. The analysis of the air from several well known coal mines of the state will be made with the test ing equipment and laboratory due to arrive any day this week at the local mining headquarters for the purpose of classifying the mine gas of each mine.
 Inspectors Hillman, Kicker and Webb have been authorized to secure bottles of air from Sayre mine, which is owned by the Sayre Mininf and Coal company; Pratt No. 12, one of the chain owned by the Sayre Mining and Coal company; Yolande No. l, belonging to the Yolande Coal and Coke company; Indio one of the interests of the DeSoto Mining com pany; Palos, holding of the Palos Coal and Coke company, and Margaret Nos. and ?, the property of the Alabama HGe! and Iron company These have been designated as the mines to furnish air for the first test by the new labora- tory and from three to five samples will De taken from each mine
 This will be the first gas laboratory 10 be installed in this state and is to be the latest improved apparatus for ascertaining the explosive qualities of the mine air. The experiments before were necessarily made in Pittsburg or Washington as there were no proper facilities in this state, this shipment meant delay of time that might prove fatal in some instances. With the new laboratory this will be eliminated.
 MT. Burrell has evidenced deep con- cern in the new Alabama gas laboratory and besides personally supervising it's construction, will make a special trip to this city for the first tests. In u communication received several days ago by Chief Nesbitt, the government expert stated that he expected to reach Birmingham the latter part of the first week in January.
