A Tale Of Two Water Bills

The New Orleans bill is on a rate of 10 cents per 1000 gallons and the cost of the 200 gallons of water used by the consumer was but 1s cents. He was charged 75 cents for the service, thus making his bill SS cents for the quarter. Although this party used a small amount of water, the rate under which he does 1t is enormously lower than In Birming- ham. One-third of the water used in New Orleans is given free for sewer age
 It is stated that the people of New Orleans secured a municipal plant by lay ing rival mains alongside of the old wa terworks mains and driving it out of busi- ness. as everyone who could get the mu- niclpal water took 1t and the private cor poration was forced to the wall.
 Bills still being received by citizens in all parts of the city. it is said, vary in their increases over the last quarter from 40 to 200 per cent.
 yesterday he indirectly states that the company will cut off all water where the bills are not paid. as it believes 1t has a right to do so As Commissioner Weath- erly states that hundreds of people have assured him they would not pay their
 increased bills until the water is cut off,
 it seems certain a series of legal battles will soon engaged the courts involving an other water question. MT. Weatherly states that by making the company cut off the water and then paying the bill under protest every consumer will have a damage suit against the company. After this has been done, he advises mass meeting to place all these damage suits in the hands of one or two able attor- neys, thus enabling the consumers to pool their resources and conduct the cases at very small cost.

.OFF FOR ST. LOUIS ID GET MOT0RCYC[|STS.
Secretary Fowlkes Thinks Birmingham Will Get
 Next Convention

Secretary Sam P. Fowlkes of the
 Business Mems league will leave Bir-
 min gham for St. Louis tonight for the
 purpose of bringing to this city the 1915 convention of the National Fed eration of American Motorcyclists, which meets at St. Louis July 15 to IS, inclusive. MT Fowlkes will be with the local delegates to the convention and he, with the aid of the delegates from Birmingham, will make a strong effort to secure the convention for Bir- mingham next year
 The National Federation of American Motorcyclists has never met in the south and for this reason Secretary Fowlkes said last night he felt sure Birmingham would have a good chance to land the convention. "Then, too," said MT. Fowlkes. 'Motorcycling' is in favor of a southern city for next year, which gives us an added advan- tage'
 Arthur Mitchell, referee for the
 south. will be present at the conven-
 ton and it is expected he will aid Bir-
 mingham. There will be a number of
 delegates from Birmingham to the con
 vention and they will work hard for it. It means that between 10000 and 1 5000 people will visit Birmingham at the same time if the convention is SC, cured for next year.
 l If the convention comes to Birming- 1 ham. there will be held in this city motorcycle races that will be of nation wide interest because of the fame of | the drivers who will enter. The rac- ing Is incidental to the convention, however.
 
 MT. Fowlkes said that the Birming ham delegation would get busy imme- diately after reaching St. Louis and would endeavor to line up all the dele gates in favor of the Magic City. They will carry an ample supply of folders | illustrative of Birmingham and will present statistics, tending to show the
 merit of Birmingham a convention | city. The beautiful scenery in and | about Birmingham will be stressed. Buttons will be freely distributed and Secretary Fowlkes hopes to have every delegate wearing a Birmingham in 1915" button before the first days ses- sions of the convention are done.

 One ball entered the forearm just above the elbow, and the other in the right breast. Medical aid was sum- moned from this city, and at last &C., count the patient was resting as well as could be expected, but neither of the balls had been removed from the body,

Two water bills on city hall desk tell an interesting tale One is for s4S and one is for Ss cents.
 A remarkable array of water bills is stacked up on the desk of City Commits sioner James Weatheriy at the city hall. They have been brought 10 him by citi- zens who have asked for advice as to what they shall do.
 In every case, Mir. Weatherly advises citizens to pay the bill only under pro- test; that is. compel the company to cut off the water and then pay the bill, thereby compelling them to cut it back on. The highest bill yet brought to him is from a lady living on the South side, whose bill under the new rates Is s4S.ss for one quarter.
 Interesting is water bill received from man in New Orleans, where there is a municipal water plant. The bill is for ss cents
 The Ss-cent bill of the New Orleans citizen and the s43 bill of the Birmlng- ham citizen lie side by side on Mir Wealth. erly's desk and whenever his enthusiasm in the waterworks fight chances to wane the least bit he glances across the two bills and immediately receives new in- spiration.
 Some of the bills turned over to MT. Weatherly in order to show the new ef- feet of the new water rates, are as fol- lows:
