RAINY WEEK
FOR MEADE
The Sun Scarcely Visible
Since Monday

Rainy weather has been in or
der in Meade county during the
entire week. Rather than a
dashing rain it has been slow
and steady, unaccompanied by
wind, thus permitting every
drop which fell to soak into the
ground.
Less than an inch has fallen,
but 1t has all soaked in, wetting
the ground to a considerable
depth.
Growing crops have been ben
Gifted, and while the wheat has
vest will not be as large as was
at first expected, still there will
be considerable wheat harvested
after all.

MinstreIs Make Good.

J. M. Busby's Minstrels play
ed to crowded tent last night.
They were by far the finest min
strel troupe that ever visited
our city under canvas. Anyone
who likes minstrel shows could
not help but be pleased at their
singing and dancing, which was
greeted with round after round
of applause. The show is new,
clean and up-to-date, replete with
new songs, and certainly deserv-
es the excellent patronage which
it received.-Alva Daily News.

NEWSPAPERCLUB
PASSES 800 MARK
Acceptances Expected To
Be Near 500 By End
of the Week

1t is believed that 500 acceptances
will be the total number of associate
members Of the Newspaper club by
the end of this week. Acceptances to
this time have reached the 300 mark,
exclusive of the newspaper men who
are active members, and 1t Is safe to
assume that the 200 additions necessary
to bring the list up to 500 Will come in
during the week.
The club since issuing invitations
have received 100 acceptances per week
and every indication points to tnat av-
erage being maintained until the full
list is completed 1t is the wish of
the invitation committee that no one
delay sending acceptance who intends
to accept The reason Is that Il Is de-
sired that the list be closed as quickly
as possible. 1t is generally believed
that the list will be closed during the
next 10 days or two weeks.
The out of town invitations will be
issued today or tomorrow. A hand
illustrated booklet will accom-
pany out of town Invitations, this being
upon for the reason that
many non residents are not as fully
informed about the Press club as local
citizens. This list Ii is believed viii
be the means of securing at least 500
out of town men as associate non-resi-
dent members of the Press club.

up the matter of the location of the
southern headquarters of the interstate
commission in its physical examination of
the railroads of the country.
As was stated In Sundays Age-Herald,
the cities contending for the headquarters
arc Birmingham, Louisville, Nashville and
Chattanooga. The latter city is making a
strong bid for the headquarters of the
commission based on its geographical sit
uation, the other cities are putting up
various claims and reason for the COM
mission headquarters to be established
in their particular localities.
1t is for the purpose of presenting the
superior claims of Birmingham that Pres
ident Harding has called the meeting Fri
day. when a committee headed by him
will go to Washington to show reasons
why Birmingham should be selected. The
committee expects to show the advan-
tages of Birmingham by reason of it's
better railroad facilities, with its seven
trunk lines and other railroad connections;

gagged on an inspection of the local prop
critics. With II. II. Horner. superinten-
dent of the plant, and ID. j. OConnell
general agent. an inspection was made
yesterday.
The company Is engaged in rather ex-
tensve improvements in this district and
which brought Mr. Watt to the city. He

general operations of the Kuhn inter-
esfs.
Mr.. Watt, who came here from Pitts
burg last March to attend the annual

yesterday with the plans of the club to
occupy the roof garden and twenty-fifth

AND A COMMITTEE
TO GO AFTER COMMISSIONS
HEADQUARTERS IN THIS CITY

commodati ton for the large force that will
be required by the interstate commission
to complete their task
In order to get all the Information nee
essary w c. Radcliff, secretary OF the
chamber, sent a night message last night
to Commissioner c. A. Prouty of the
interstate commission asking for full in
formation as to the establishment of the
headquarters; how much office space 1t
would require, how long it would be in
session and any other data connected with
the work 1t had in hand. He also men,
toned the unparalleled advantages that
Birmingham possessed in the way of Of
flee accommodation, including the %
stery building now in course of erection
1t is the general opinion that the es-
tablishment of the headquarters of this
commission in Birmingham would mean
great deal to the city, not only from
the benefits derived from the large office
force that will be maintained but by
the prestige it would give Birmingham
as a railroad center Congressman Tn
derwood has already made a strong ar
gument before the commission for tho
establishment of the headquarters in Rir-
mingham and Mr.. Harding and his COM
mittee expect to present further facts
that Will tend to convince the Interstate
commission that Birmingham is the log
ical point for the southern headquarters
