Clergymen, Teachers and
Others Enlisted in Fight
in Behalf of children.

CHARLESTON, Jan. 10 = The
campaign for a new child labor law
has opened. Scores of clergymen,
educators, physicians and others
this week received a questionable
from the West Virginia Child Labor
Committee, in order that the general
sentiment in favor of further pro-
tecting the children OF the state may
be presented in definite form.
/ The Child Labor Committee
wishes to establish the eight hour
day and abolish night work for all
under 16 years. They say that
thirteen states (including ohio) al
ready have the eight hour day for
all workers u1der 16, and eight
others have such a day for certain
workers under 16. Only three
states, besides West Virginia, have
no limit of hours whatever, and OF
those with limit longer THIN eight
hours, several expect to establish
the eight hour day for children this
winter. Since this is the recognized
standard for federal employees and
in many states. for convicts, the
committee believes that the people
of West Virginia will surely STAND
back of it in this point Of the cam

BIG HIT
Pearl Stock Company Makes
with Farce Comedy at
Victoria Theater.

The Whole, Dam Family" as
played by the Pearl Stock Company
at the Victoria theater last might
proved a. big laughing hit. For
about two hours it RECALLED an audi
ence that tested the capacity Of the
playhouse, and If one can judge by
the peals of laughter and the pro
longed and repeated applause, this
comedy success has made the big
gest hit of anything the Pearl Stock
Company has offered here. 1.-THE
Whole Dam Family" which does mot
resort to anything suggestive, Is re-
piete with brilliant wit and iudicrous
comedy situations; it is an excellent
grouchicide, i1asmuch as all the 'au-
ditor has to do is to sit back in his
seat and without any effort he be-
comes deeply engrossed and tinds
himself forgetting the myriad
troubles of a work-a-day world and
joining in the chorus of laughter. In
fact, this fun-maker is funny enough
for one to have to laugh at after he
gets in bed. as nothing SO comica
has been seen here for long time
j The players all proved themselves
very good comedians, we're easy ii
their lines and entered into the pla.
with zest, as if they thorough,
enjoyed the fun themselves. This
play should pack the Victoria agar

WEDS SWEETHEART
AFTER LONG CHASE
Runaway Girls Stage Ca
reer Cut Short by We'd
ding at the Hillman

Tracing his sweetheart Beulah Mccall
lard, through three southern states, J.
F. O'Dell of Knoxville found her yester-
day at the Hillman hotel, where they
were married at o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon by the Rev. j. F. Foster of the
First Presbyterian church.
Miss McGalliard left Knoxville Monday
afternoon at 2 o'clock, leaving a note to
her mother stating that she was going
on the stage. Miss McGalliard is the pos
SCISSOR of a beautiful voice and has had
training that makes her singer of rare
ability. She stated yesterday that she has
owing to parental objections she had
never sung from behind the footlights.
She was to join a musical comedy COM
pany in Birmingham today, but owing to
the arrival of Mr.. O'Dell and the marriage
her stage career was cut short.
Mr.. ODell, who was an operator for
the Western Union Telegraph company
in Knoxville, obtained tip from the girls
father as to where his sweetheart had
gone. The father was formerly a detec-
tive in Knoxville. O'Del resigned his po-
sltion and left at once on the trail of
the young woman and found ler in the
hotel here yesterday at 12 O'Clock.
The wedding took place yesterday at 4
o'clock and the young couple will leave
today on honeymoon through the west
ern states.

TObE NO POLITICS
ON PANAMA CANAL
If Appointed Governor,
GOethals Would Be Nom
Partisan, He Says

Washington. January 1.-Operation of
the Panama canal on business principles
without regard to politics will be insisted
upon if Col. George w. Goethals, chief
engineer of the canal undertakes the or
ganization of the permanent government
of the zone and the operation of the great
waterway.
When Colonel Goethals arrived in WASH
ington with President Taft on his an
nual trip from the canal zone, one of
the first matters brought to his attention
was the widely published report that his
nomination as governor of the zone would
be opposed because of a belief in some
quarters that he would show favoritism
in appointing his subordinates. The colo
mel made it plain that he would be entire
ly content to forego such an appointment
if he was not to be permitted to select
gardless of epolitical considerations. He
declared that his one rule in making ap-
pointments would be to find the right man
for the work at hand
Colonel Goethals said he contemplated
no changes in the present canal force ex-
cept such as would be incident to the
completion of the various sections of the
Work Alreauy the engineer IN cnarge OF
the Pacific division has been relieved, as
that division practically is completed.
Probably by next June all the divisions
will lose their separate entities and be
merged into the general command.
The principal purpose of Colonel Goeth-
ais visit to Washington at this time,
about a month In advance of his usual
appearance at the capital. is to appear
before the House committee on appropria-
tions to discuss the fertilization of the
canal zone

SAID MAYBERRY
WILL REBUILD
Owner of Burned Building
Here Yesterday Looking
Over Affairs

II. II. Mayberry of Nashville, owner
of the building occupied by the Bir-
mingham Paper company and recently
destroyed by fire, was here yesterday
engaged in consultation with his agents,
w b. Leedy & Co., and the insurance
adjusters. He returned to Nashville
yesterday.
1t is understood that Mr.. Mayberry
after the insurance loss is
adjusted viii announce the rebuilding
of the destroyed structure, although at
this time he has no plans outlined.
At the office of w. b. Leedy & Co,
agents for Mr.. Mayberry, it was said
that Mr.. Mayberry would most likely
improve the building as soon as pos
sible. but that he did not make any
definite statement while in the city.
The site upon which the building
stood is considered one of the most
valuable on First avenue. Mr.. May
berry has for many years been inter-
ested in Birmingham and has an abund-
ence OF faith in this citys future. 1t is
that the new building may be
even better than the handsome struc-
ture which was destroyed by the
flames.

VACANT HOUSES in
EUFAULA SCARCE
Movement on Foot to Erect Monument
to Observation-Disclosures
Ball Picturesque

Eufaula. January 1.--(Special.)-
Twenty families from sections sur
rounding the city have recently moved
here and it is with great difficulty that
they could find residences. Never in
the history of the city has there been
so much complaint in this respect and
to this end several citizens who have
confidence in Eufaula have begun the
erection of neat and commodious dwell
lings along Washington street, prin-
cipally for rental purposes. Among
these are ]. F. Dunnoway. who is build
ing two; Mrs. julie Butt,i two; d. T.
Ard residence and store house and d.
f. Barker one. 1t is also known that
others will go up iii other sections OF
the city soon.
An effort is on foot to create fund
for the erection of a suitable monument
to mark the last resting place of George
Vaughn. the pioneer fisherman and
bridge keeper of the city, recently de-
ceased. The heroic deeds. that char
aNterized his younger years in saving
several drowning youths of the city
greatly endeared him to the citizens
who will in this way attest their es-
TEEN. The movement was started by
J. T. Stacy. a former resident of the city
who resides in Texas and who con-
tributed the sum of $50 in that direc-
tion.
The Confederate bah given under the
auspices of the United Daughters of the
Confederacy of the city last night was
highly interesting and enjoyable af-
fair. The participants in the dance
were all attired in costumes appropri-
ate to the sixties and presented a very
handsome as well as unique appearance.
Delicious refreshments were served
throughout the evening and the armory
Of the Eufaula Rifles was practically
filled to its capacity.
Postmaster Russell and his force have
completed the work of moving into the
new postoffice building aud are now
dispensing the mails from that edifice.
While all of the furniture and fixtures
have not yet arrived the facilities are
SO far superior to the former building
that the step was decided upon.
