Birmingham will have peoples audi
torium
At the municipal bond election yester-
day authorizing the city to issue s20OOOO
Of per cent 90-year bonds for this pur-
pose, the voters indorsed the proposition
by nearly to majority.
The feature of the election, however,
was that there We're but S5i votes in en-
tire Greater Birmingham cast against the
auditorium bond issue. The voting
strength of the city is about 5000 on an
average. AS it is believed practically
every man who opposed the issue voted
against it, it follows that there are but
about 1 in every 10 voters in the city
actually opposed to the auditorium pro-
ject.
But S5l Negative Votes
There We're 3Oi9 votes cast. There were
2l9S for the bond issue and s51 against.
Five boxes in the suburbs voted against
it. They are Pratt City East Thomas,
Ensley. Wylam and Avondale The larg-
est vote against the proposition was in
Ensley.
The four big city boxes were almost
unanimous for it Gate City tied, with
10 for and 10 against.
Pascal Shook, chairman of the Cham
Der of Commerce special auditorium COM
mittee, which has been promoting the au-
ditorium movement ever since il was
launched about eight months ago by
President W. P. G. Harding of the cham
Der, last night issued the following state
ment:
Birmingham has solved one of its prob
lems
''rhe city could never have grown and
prospered as 1t should without a modern
auditorium large enough to accommodate
big conventions and that this fact is
fully appreciated by the voters is shown
by the majority in the two elections in
which the auditorium was an issue.
''Those who have supported the propo-
sition may very properly feel that they
have rendered a conspicuous service to
this community. as 1 believe time will
fully demonstrate.
There should be no delay in disposing
OF the bonds, and starting actual con-
struction work, SO that we can have the
building for use next summer. l think
that in view of certain existing condi-
tions that local investors should take
the bonds and facilitate the beginning
of actual work on the building"
Shelby Much Pleased
President Harding was out of town last
night President J. e. Shelby of the
Board of Trade stated he was very high
" pleased with the election result. 1T
is another demonstration of the new
spirit prevailing in Birmingham" he said
ITS fine."
City Commissioner James Weatherly
stated that the next step was to sell
the bonds. owing to theApresent condi-
ton of money he stated that unless local
investors took these bonds that there
might be some difficulty disposing Of
them to outside buyers, as little such
business was now being done
'As soon as the bonds are sold. we can
begin negotiations for site and award
contracts for the building he said. II
would think that the building could be

w. $. Humbert Acquires New Traction Engine and Gang Plow Which Prom ises to Revolutionize Farm ing Methods

On the ranch of w. s. Humbert
 there was installed a few days ago i by the Ryan Vehicle X Machinery company, an outfit which MT. Hum l bert believes is destined to revolu-
 tionize his farming methods and re- 1 duce his operating expenses. At a 1 cost of about $2,50O he acquired a 1 Flower City twenty horse power
 traction engine and a John Deere l pony engine four bottom blow, the | engine being the product of the Kin nard- Haines company plant in Min neapOlis. and the blow having been
 manufactured by Deere & company l of Moline, III.
 Although he has had the equip ment but a few days, MT. Hum bert 1 has already demonstrated to his own 1 satisfaction and that of his neigh 1 bors and friends that he has made a step forward and one that gives him the opportunity to extend his ranch l ing operations at a minimum of ex- pense.
 It is claimed for the outfit that it takes the place of at least sixteen horses and four men in blowing. It is a one man operated engine and the quantity of gasoline consumed is surprisingly small The same man that operates the engine directs the blow. With the engine and blow it is possible to turn the soil on from | twelve to sixteen acres in a single day.
 Nor are the engine and blow un- Wieldly, it being possible because of the jack-knife lever construction to turn at the end of a field in a space of from fifteen to twenty feet. The shares are sent at least ten inches in the hardest soil.
 The engine weighs 5000 pounds and can be used not only for blowing but for cultivating alfalfa, sowing of
 grain, subsoiling and pretty nearly takes the entire place of the horse on the farm. It is estimated that the cost of the entire outfit hardly exceeds that of the sixteen horses that would be required to do the same amount of work. with a decid- ed saving in feed bills as compared with fuel expenses to say nothing of l the saving of wages for three men and the added saving in time

Some dis cussiOn was also had relative to the tennis contests between the associa- tions of Ray and Hayden to be held on the local courts next Sunday. Several autos will bring over the Ray contestants and their friends instead of a special train as was at first considered If the present good weather maintains through Sunday the event is sure to be a notable success.

DRAINAGE CANAL SOUND
Committee Report Recommends Ger
tain improvements.

Springfield, H., May Ex-senator r.
J. Barr of Joliet yesterday submitted
to the senate the report of the special
committee appointed two months ago
to investigate the retaining walls of
the sanitary district Of Chicago in the
Des PLANES valley above Joliet. This
report includes the report of the engi-
neers that made the examination.
The engineers find that while thee
IS no immediate danger apparent after
an examination of the walls of the
canal, certain improvements should
be made and these are recommended
TO be made by the sanitary district.
The engineers recommend that the
inspection of the canal be continued
and its recommendation is Endorsed by
the committee, which also recon-
mends the continuation OF the life Of
the committee.
Senator Barr explained that the
completion OF the inspection probably
will cost from s23, 900 to $4,000, in the
opinion of the engineers.
The committees report was adopted
and provision for the necessary ap-
preparation will be made later,
