A Pitcher WedS
case.

The gladsome tidings have been sent over the wires from one end of the country to the other that Walter Johnson, "premier pitcher," has mar ried a congressmans daughter. There were no rumors of "parental object ion" or any other kind of objection. It is not every young woman who has an opportunity to wed young man of such widespread and, it may be said, enduring fame as the happy bride of Mir. Johnson.
 Although but 26 years old this su- perior and capable young person is known from coast to coast as a star of great brilliancy and dependableness on the baseball diamond. His prowess as a pitcher commends him to the sporting editors who write for mag azines as "side line," to the shrewd advertisers who wish to boost the sales of some particuar commodity by hav- ing him recommend it, to every living soul in the city of Washington and to thousands of baseball "fans" through out the country who can never learn too much, it seems, about the private and public life of celebrated players of the game.
 On the other hand, it is not every young man who has an opportunity to marry congressman's daughter, and MT. Johnson is to be congratulated. That he will make "good provider" there can be little doubt. He has the earning capacity of captain of in- dustry and "gets the money" When the time rolls round for him to sign new contract a host of admirers hold their breaths until the ordeal is ended and he is again safely cinched." Steady in his habits, from all reports, a pitcher who has yet many years of usefulness before him., he may well be looked upon as one of the seasons best catches.

Returnr from yirglnin

Col T. o. Smith has returned from Lexington. Va. where he had spent sew eral days during the finals of the Vir- ginia Military institute. After taking an academic course at the University of Ala bama he studied engineering at Washing ton and Lee university, and then became a cadet at the institute. Being an alumnus of both of the institutions at Lexington, Colonel Smith has double affection for that historic old town.
 "I had delightful visit" said Colonel Smith. 'The unveiling last Wednesday of Clinedinsts splendid painting of the battle of New Market was a stirring event. It is an immense canvass, % feet wide, and occupies a position back of the rostrum in. the large hall. Clinedinst is a native of Virginia, and was V. M. l. cadet.

BOOKS AND STYLE

From the Boston Transcript
 A somewhat thin blooded academic person objects to our praise of Dr. Eliots command of the English lan- guage. and more especially that in- scriptional gift which Woodrow Will son seems to share with him. Were you ever in Eliots house?" queries cur critic. "If so, you know there are no books there, and never have been. President Eliot may have read books
 when he was young. but that was long ago."
 One mistake our academic friend makes is to confuse the relative value of wide reading and deep reading. And for the matter of that, what differ ence does it make whether people read literature when they write 1t and live 1t? Certainly Dr. Eliot has read s
 good many books, and perhaps his mind is the clearer for the fact that he never had time to become book worm. With him, as with Abraham Lincoln and, in more recent days, the late Mayor Gaynor, his finely chis- e,ed style Is adequate for every pur- pose to which he has ever cared to apply 1t, and this style tthe mirror of
 his mind) was evolved, not from much reading of books. but from clear thinking about life. Some men think In terms of adjectivesl Mir, Henry James thinks adverbially; pr. Eliot is a verb thinker,s

Birmingham Merehants Aroused

When the merchants of Birmingham feel that they have a grievance against the state they stand solidly together and make resistance through all proper lawful methods. Back Tax Commissioner J. V. Allen in his effort to collect taxes on solvent. credits has started up a legal fight of far-reach- ing concern to the mercantile inter- ests of the Birmingham district. The merchants of Birmingham, like other good citizens, have proverbial respect for law, and they submit uncomplain- ingly to taxation even when it some times seems unreasonable.
 This tax on solvent credits would be indeed a most grievous burden. Mr. Allen contends that it should be levied under the specific provision of the code, but he expresses willingness that the taxpayers test the validity of the law in the courts.
 Both sides to this spirited contro- versy have retained able counsel. In yesterdays Age-Herald MT. Allen set forth his side of the matter at some length, but no litigants or protesters were ever more confident of the just ness of their cause than the members of Birmingham Board of Trade and those who have joined with them.
 The supreme court will finally de- eide the question. Without presum- ing, of course, to prejudge the case, it is only truth to say that practically everybody is in sympathy with the merchants who are assessed on solvent credits.
 Every community has men in it who are known as tax dodgers. Birming- hams merchants are not of that class, but when they think they are right in resisting tax assessment they will stand shoulder to shoulder and spare no legitimate effort to win their case.

The Band Concerts

Thousands of people must have read with delight the announcement in The Age-Herald that .Memolfs band would open a series of concerts in Capitol park on Sunday afternoon, July D." said a member of the Can s sget-Away club.
 Open air music. has come to be recog- nized as civic necessity in every large city, and I hope the time will come when Birmingham can have park concerts from the first of June until the end of Sep tember. In the meantime we can but feel grateful to the ladies of the Music Study club who are raising the necessary funds to employ a band for a short series of concerts. Only about half of the amount of money needed to pay for the music throughout the rest of the summer has been subscribed, but I be- lieve that many citizens will yet coma forward and contribute small amounts that will make up q good total. Last year the Music Study club accumulated fund of about $4500. There seems to be no good reason why the contributions should not amount to something like those figures this summer"

Cooperation Builds

'This Is the greatest begging town in the United States" said a man in dis cussing the proposed raising of $1, 900 GOO for Methodist university here by popular subscription Continuing, he said: Our people were begged for money for more than a dozen different institutions and have liberally responded. Now comes this university. Where is the thing to end?'
 "Ahl' said a bystander, "but had you noticed that the men who contribute to these institutions are the real builders of Birmingham? And do you know that without these liberal spirits there would be no great city here? Look at our great churches, our hospitals, the East Lake or phanage, our Young Mems Christian as- sociation, and Young Woman's Christian association, the Mercy home and other elemosynary institutions-all built by CO., operation What would Birmingham be without them? Every dollar contributed by the citizens of Birmingham in this wise had paid three-fold to the contribu- tors in the enhancement of values and the general uplift.
 Birmingham is destined to become a still greater city, and the best asset she has is the spirit of cooperation and liber- ality manifested by her citizenry. Let the goodswork go on and rich reward will follow"

The Spirit of Optimism

At no time in its history has Bir- mingham been permeated with quite so much optimism as now. And it would be strange were it otherwise.
 Birmingham has made phenomenal progress in recent years. Some men prominent in the financial world say that confidence has not been fully re- stored among capitalists since the panic of 1907. Be that as it may, Birmingham's strides have been greater since that time than in any previous period of seven years. If, then, this industrial and mercantile center can go forward rapidly and on a strong foundation when New York's great financial district is halting and tinged often with pes simism, what may not be expected of Birmingham in the way of expansion when the new era of nationwide pros perity becomes full-fledged
 It requires no prophet to foretell the continued growth of Birmingham It is only question of whether tho population will reach the 50o,O0C mark by the census of 1880, or a few years later. Young men are here to- day who will live to see Birmingham with million inhabitants.

Indicating Prosperity

The readjustment of postmasters' salaries in Alabama, effective July l, on April reports, is of more than or dinary public interest, because these salaries are based on the receipts of the office. Few business barometers are so reliable as postoffice statistics. In some cities peculiar local conditions stimulate the volume of mail, but as general thing the progress of any comlnunity is well indicated by the in crease in it's postoffice revenue.
 As The Age-Herald's Washington correspondent in presenting tabu- lation of postmasters' salaries showed, of 121 postoffices in Alabama above the fourth class there are increases this year in the salaries of 75. The Birmingham salary is increased 5000 : from S400O to S5O00. The other in creases vary from $1o0 to $2oo. In a number of cases the salary remains unchanged, while the decreases are very few.
 The maximum salary of postmas- ter in the United States is $60O0 a year, except in New York and Chi cago, where $S000 is paid by special acts of Congress. The Birmingham salary will reach $6000 next year, and would have reached it this year, per- haps, had it not been for the fact that there were two postoffices above the fourth class independent of the Bir- mingham office inside the city limits .-Ensley and Wylam. The Wylam of flee is to be merged into the Ensley office, effective June 30. It belongs to the third class and according to the t1ew adjustment of salaries the post master would have received $1200 in- ktead of $1100 in 1913, had the con bolidation not been ordered by the de- Apartment. The Ensley office is in the second class, and the postmaster $ salary is $2600, the same this year as last. Besides the two postoffices re- ferred to, Fairfield, a close neighbor of Birmingham, has an office that handles large volume of business sufficiently large to bring the post masters salary up to $500 as com pared with less than 5000 year ago.
 The full list published in Satur- days Age-Herald shows unmistakable prosperity in most of the larger i towns, and it is gratifying to see that in some of the older towns the post office business increases at a healthy rate.

NED BRACE TALKS ABOUT LOCAL AFFAIRS
 AND SEVERAL THINGS OF GENERAL INTEREST

" AM told that the recent record of homicides in Birmingham and It's
 surroundings has added a large per- centage to the pistol totings brigade the excuse being for self-proteetlon.
 This is indeed unfortunate for the com munity, for Birmingham can never achieve the greatness it is entitled to until it's homicide record Is wiped out.
 Policemen and deputy sheriffs hold that 1t would be presumptuous on their part to walk up to. citizen and search him for pistol That is true. But now that most men are wearing thin coats the pistols can be seen, and unless the man who carries one has permit to bear it he should be relieved of 1t by the officer and at least warned that second offense will mean arrest and im- prisonment.
 Tn the court rooms and about the pub lie buildings the rumor is that many wit nesses and others appear with pistols on their persons. Certainly the judges could have the court baiiffs and sheriffs round up these people and disarm them Let the enforcement of the law start In the court house itself Monday morning. and then extend out.
 If the concealed weapon law is enforced we shall soon have good and model Birmingham.
