A remarkably interesting fact was
brought to light by Lord Redesdale be-
for the advisory committee of the
King Edward memorial fund for Lon

out of Shadwell market site as a
pleasure garden. 1t was curious. he
said, that grass brought from the
country withered away in London, on
the other hand, grass from London
grown seeds flourished. That Is q
striking example OF what scientists
call adaptation to environment.--Lon.

Among the Nearby
Citizens

Vicksburg, Miss, February sand
boils' in a number of places in prox-

structed last week, are causing some
alarm among members of the fifth
Louisiana levee board and anxiety is
felt among the people who live in that
section, which was flooded for several
months last spring following the Sa-
lem levee erevasse.

sand boils have shown up III num-

points for distance of 900 feet. The
water is as much as Is feet up against

FARMERS COMING
HERE FROM NORTH
Much Desired Immigrant
Movement Developed
Actively

The much desired agricultural immi-
grant movement from the north and west
toward Alabama has developed very ac-
lively this winter.
Real estate men in Birmingham within
the last few weeks have been doing much
business in negotiating farm lands for
men who have been coming to Alabama
from the northern and western states.
One wefl known real estate dealer stated
yesterday that within the last six weeks
something over 30 men from the states of
Ohio, Indiana, Iowa and the two Dakotas
had purchased farms in two of the north
ern counties of the state and returned to
their homes to move their families here
within the next two or three months.
Another real estate hustler during the
last week closed up deal with Homer
Shirley, formerly a Michigan fruit grow
er. for an entire section of land, $40
ceres, between Birmingham and Mcnt-
gomery, where Mr., Shirley will enter into
the fruit growing business on an immense
scale. Mr.. Shirley is located about 70 miles
from Birmingham with good railway con-
nections and expects to soon become a
material factor in helping the housekeep-
ers of Birmingham in lowering the high
cost of living. A delegation of northern
farmers during the last week visited some
OF the lands being offered for sale in Au-
tauga county, and it is believed that many
of them will close deals for farms and
remove their families to Alabama.
The coming week party of Is farmers
from Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and otner
northern states will visit some of the mid
die Alabama farm lands with the purpose
in view of coming here to live. and an
other party of 25 will come in from Gin
cinnati, Louisville and adjacent territory.

HANDSOME THEATRE
TOOPEN TOMORROW
Newsome's Place Said to Be
HandsOmest in South
LARGE PIPE ORGAN
Other Features Have Been Added To
Make it Attractiye-Deeora-
tions on Specially
Elaborate Scale
LARGE PIPE ORGAN

What IS said to be the most elegant
and most costly moving picture theatre
in the south viii be opened tomorrow
morning II. NJ. Newsome, who is pro
prietor of three other theatres in Rir-
mingham, has built the newest one. The
name has not been selected yet, a con-
test being on now for name and $50 in
gold will be the reward to some Bir-
mingham woman who win suggest the
most appropriate name for the new the
atre.
The new moving picture theatre is To-
Gated on Second avenue between Nine
teenth street and Twentieth street, IN
the former home of the Birmingham
Arms Co. The store has been completely
changed for the theatre. There has been
arranged q seating capacity for GOO per-
sons. according 10 Mr. NeRsome. The
place is equipped with several exits in
case of fire or scare To provide fresh
cir the theatre has five extremely large
exhaust fans, which will be operated con-
tinuously. bringing in fresh air and TAX
ing away the foul air. 1t is believed the
ventiating question has been completely
solved in this new theatre.
The entrance is perhaps the most at
tractive in the south. The lobby space
and the box office are entirely of mar
BILE with tile floors. The entrance is fin
tshed in white only. The hangings are
elegant and assist in creating a scene OF
show The seats are comfortable, the
aisles are wide and the seats are so ar
ranged as to provide everyone with an
exceptionally free view of the stage and
curtain on the main floor and balcony.
Mr.. Newsome has arranged for pipe
organ for the place which cost about
5000. The music at the new theatre will
be the very best that can be procured
for such place.
The interior walls are treated with ar
tistic effect. The electric fixtures are
attractive while the walls are adorned
with large paintings of noted actors and
actresses in favorite characters. These
include Sothern as Hamlet, Miss Mar
lowe as Ophelia, Ada Rehan as Lady
Macbeth, Julia Arthur as Rosalind Louis
James as Richeleu, Madame Bernhardt
as Queen Elizabeth, William Faversham
as Mare Antony, Julie Opp as Portia,
Mansfield as Shylock and Lawrence Bar
rett as Richard III.
The theatre in every way typifies the
rapid strides that are being made by
moving picture shows and emphasizes the
fact that in Birmingham the people are
unusually fond of such amusements and
are patronizng them accordingly.
Harry b. Wheeloek designed the ex-
terror and the interior of the new amuse-
ment place. and Charles NJ. Allen was
the contractor who carried out the archi-
tects ideas so artistically.
