Two important plants to manufacture pipe of many kinds are about to locate in the Birmingham district, according to reports in industrial circles yester- day One of the plants, it is stated, Win require 16 acres for its operations, anu the other about four acres. One Of the plants is said to be a subsidiary or the Summerville Iron company or Summer vile, N. J., and a representative of that concern, r. l. Linsberger, is here at present engaged in outlining some or the details for the plant. It was stated that he conferred at length yesterday with Edgar Adler and Ike Adler and that there is a strong inclination to locate the plant at Bessemer or near that place.
 It is stated that the plants combined will employ more than 900 men. The information gathered yesterday was to the effect that the proposition of side tracks into the properties is heinz

Obeyed Instructions

The wit of a sharp retort often makes the nearer forget its Impertinence. Such rebuke was that which Sir w. S. Gil bert administered to an overbearine man at dinner party.
 After the dinner Gilbert was stand Ing in the hall, waiting for a friend to join him, when a pompous and some what near-sighted gentleman, mistaR- ing him for one of the servants ex- claimed
 Call me a cab,'
 Gilbert looked the stranger up and down; then he observed, quietly:
 "You're four wheeler
 What do you mean, sir?" spluttered the other. How dare you, sir?"
 Well" Gilbert retorted, you asked me to call you cab, and I couldn't call you 'hansom'"

An Observant Child,

 Soon everyone around knew, without asking, that one of the ladies had re- gently moved into "a larger house farther west"

tain for him British decoration of some sort. Most of the royalties who had, so to speak, passed through his hands had conferred on him various stars" and ''crosses;" but, though he had several times been responsible for the safety and comfort of the British sovereign he had received no decoration n return.
 "But most of our orders are given for military distinction or to civil servants,' Lord Dufferin explained soothingly. For example, the Bath, the Star of India and so forth"
 The station master looked very glum
 There is, however, his lordship con- tined, "one order that is given for no particular merit or service-the Order of the Garter"

The Horse Still With Us
From the Indianapolis StaI

According to statistics gathered by the department of agriculture, the number of horses in this country in 1913 was greater by 395,000 than in 1912. Does not that surprise you in view of the vast popular ity of the automobile and the scarcity of horses on city streets? As an offhand guess the unstatistical citizen would have said that there must necessarily be a decrease in the number of animals in the United States corresponding in some degree with the number of motor vehicles In use.
 But even though many automobiles are owned by farmers, and motor trucks for hauling, and motor delivery wagons are becoming the rule rather than the eXcep- tion in all larger towns and cities, the horse population of the United States in creases and mules also are in great de- mand. Their total number is in fact greater than that of horses, and their average value higher by s14 a head
 Wha, are the horses and mules used for? Well, no matter how many automo- piles farmers may own, their farm work is still done with the aid of actual horse power. Hauling of most kinds in road work, building, excavations, etc.. Is done with horses and mules; there is still an extensive demand for saddle horses, espe- cially those suited to army use, and while horse racing has lost it's special charm In sporting circles because of the suppression of gambling, formerly inseparable from it. the raising of hgh-bred race horses is not likely to cease. A fine horse has an aftra ction that no mere machine, however perfect, can have, and there will always be those who will delight in such animals because of their beauty,
 At all events, the advent of the auto mobile has not, so far, caused even the beginning of the disappearance of the horse that was predicted few years ago. The 'horseless age' is not yet in sight.

An Unpleasant Reminder

From Pearson's Weekly.

TWO BIG PIPE PLANTS MAY
 LOCATE IN THIS DISTRICT

taken up now and discussed before the final selection of site. It Is stated tha- whatever the decision as to side tracks the plants will be located in this inn mediate district. Engineers for the rail- roads interested are expected here dur ing the next day or two to take up the matter. and after their visit some defi- mite information will be given out.
 The opinion is that the two new plants will find field here for the con- sumption of their products that will warrant a rather extensive operation. It is understood that the men engaged in the promotion of the two plants here will have them in operation during the summer It is stated that Albert Shook of Nashville, a brother of P. H. Shook, has negotiations for the second plant in charge.

 A South Wales minister recently paid a great tribute to the press.
 The little town in which his chapel stands had been visited within a short space or time by several catastrophes. all of which with narrowing details, had been duly exploited in the papers
 The minister was moved to make the misfortunes of his townsmen q subject of prayer. He knelt In the presence of his congregation, and began fervently:

Scottsboro. March Especial )-The grand jury, after having been in continu- ous session for two weeks, has adjourned and say they have examined 121 cases and found 96 true bills.
 In reporting the financial condition Of the county they said: "Former grand juries have recommended the strictest economy as to expenditures of the county and we find in many instances these recommendations have been needed We find the financial condition of cur county deplorable, and the county hope essly in debt, and from what we can learn it is likely to continue so for years to come"
 In regard to homicides, they say Tt has been our painful duty to have to ex- anime four homicide cases committed In the county since the last term of this court and the bootegger seems to be prospecting in nearly all sections of the county. We have done all we could to bring the guilty ones to justice but from the information we received. which could not be regarded as legal testimony, we think practice of selling spirituous liquors without license is more numerous than
 
 We have had quite a number of com plaints on the eve of our adjournment Which we must necessarily pass by for future grand juries. We find disposition among great many who claim to be law-abidlng people to shield the boot legeer in every way they can. We are clearly of the opinion that this is the cause of so many homicides in the county"
