 MT. Beatty, manager of the Birming- ham Realty company, will operate a bus line beginning today from the heart of the city to the Norwood residence sec tion. Four cars will be in operation on a schedule of about 40 minutes for the round trip, the cars running about 10 or 12 minutes apart.
 While the inauguration of the bus line yesterday was mot particularly ostenta- tious it marked what may in time com pletey revolutionize transportation con ditions in Birmingham. many of the men assembled yesterday making remarks to this effect.
 T firmly believe" stated City Commits sioner James Weatherly," that it is only a matter of time until there will be no street cars in Birmingham or any other city. These buses or similar vehicles are going to take their place.
 Tt is largely matter of paved streets. Just as soon as we have paved streets to all parts of the city, then such lines will operate with success"

 Just become known here that on the
 recent visit of Col N F. Thompson
 Of Birmingham to Florence he consum-
 mated one of the most important deals
 that has been made in this locality for
 many years past. Colonel Thompson closed deal for the acquisition of what is known as the Cypress creek
 tract of land, containing 1000 acres aoJoining the corporate limits of the city of Florence on the west with five
 miles of creek frontage, on which arc five separate and distinct water DOW CTS.
 It is understood that company is being formed for the immediate de-
 velopment of this property as it con tains some of the most desirable su- burban sites for homes in or around Florence It is also learned that nego- tiations are pending for the location of three important industries for the util : ization of these water powers Aside from the development of the
 water power on Muscle Shoals on the Tennessee river which only awaits ac- relating to dams on navigable streams to become immediately effective, Flor
 ence is richly endowed in these wa ter powers on Cypress creek, which
 skirts the western boundary of the city. The development of these mag nificent water powers will give Flor
 ence the brightest outlook of any city in the state.

 The barbecue was said to be one of the best ever held
 There were no speeches. Everybody just ate. The abundance of material foundered nearly every man present. About 25O pounds of barbecued meats were left over. and Walter Beatty, who had charge of the barbecue, sent it to the Mercy Home and to Pisgah Home, dividing it up. The meat was cooked by Uncle Henry Walker, a good old bar beeue artist of the darker hue, whose smile grew larger and larger as he saw his guests go to it.
 It was truly remarkable feast. There was not ony no speeches but no politics. At one time James Weatherly and Harry Jones stood under the shade of a friendly oak holding between them one piece of watermelon, each eating on his end, each wiping the juice off the others elbows.
