Visitors Agreeably Surprised

Few things in Birmingham have caused such agreeable surprise as the Newspaper club" said Sidney F. Lazarus.
 'I have entertained friends there from time to time, and I have told them in ad- vance that we had press club rooms that were very high class l described our quartens to one of our visitors before he had been inside of the Jefferson County Savings Bank building, and he thought that l was eXaggerating. l watched the expression of this gentleman visitor as he was looking through the club rooms, and especially the cafe, where we had lunch. He was undoubtedly amazed. He said he thought that l had been exaggerating in talking about the Newspaper club; but after seeing what an elegant home the club had he said it would be difficult to overdraw the picture.
 As there is no press club in the United States up to the dignity, elegance and general attractiveness of the Birmingham institution. our citizens, and especially those who belong to the club, are more than proud of it'

WOOD PRESERVED BY SALT

Washington Dispatch to New York Times
 Experts of the forest service have dis covered that the waters of the Great Salt lake act as a preservative against decay in timbers.
 In replacing a railroad trestle recently burned along the north shore of Great Salt lake it was found that the piles were still perfectly sound, after 43 years of ser vice. In looking for the cause, since the piles were only of local pine and fir, it was discovered that the timbers were impreg- mated with salt. At another point on the lake 1S-inoh piles, set 20 years ago, were similarly preserved with salt.
 It is pointed out that the reason why the waters of the Salt Lake act as a strong preservative, as distinguished from ocean waters. is because the lake water is so much saltier, being practically a saturate solution. Forest experts sug- gest that ties and poles immersed in these waters ought to be impervious to de- cay if the salt is not leached out by the acton of the clements This can be guard ed against, it is asserted, by painting the butt of the pole with creosote, which will keep out the moisture and keep in the salt.

\ CRANBERRY LESSON
From Leslie's

ffOIn Leslie s.
 How many persons know that cranber- ries from the bogs of New York, Wiscon- sin New Jersey and Massachusetts are marketed through single center in New York, and that the price is fixed at d figure to give the cranberry growers a satisfactory profit and the public req sonable quotation at all times? This is done through the Cranberry Growers National Trade association. It prevents glutting the market at low figure at one time and leaving it bare at high fig ures at another.
 Yet this reasonable action for the pur- pose of economically marketing cranber- ries is in violation of the Sherman law because it is a combination in restraint of trade. When the Sherman antitrust law was passed il was supposed to be aimed at two three strong, wealthy, prosperous corporations. The cranberry growers, the cotton producers, the grocerymen and lumbermen, the labor unions and others who have cooperative associations, did not think that the law could ever touch them. In the light of experience a re- vulsion of feeling concerning the matter is becoming more and more apparent.

\ Magnificent Temple

'tI was invited to attend dedication services at the new Temple Emanu- E. and was not able to accept, but l hac the pleasure of being present at the lecture of pr. Jenkin Lloyd Jones al the temple this afternoon" said a mem Der of one of the prominent Christian bodies last night.
 T have been in several large syna- gogues-two of them very handsome but l think it safe to say that few cities in this country have Jewish temple that will compare with that erected and recently dedicated on High land avenue. of course 1 had admired the exterior often, but the interior is equally as impressive. There is a dig nifty and beauty about it that is sin gularly pleasing. It is grand temple indeed, and Rabbi Newneld made il clear in the few remarks he made leading up to the lecture of pr. Jones that while it~was a house of prayer I. was also to be used for occasions tend ing to civic improvement and moral elevation" -e

Interested in Underwood


 Two or three months ago democrats throughout the country were very so- licitous about the senatorial contest in Alabama, the desire being that Leader Underwood win, but now it seems to be taken for graeted that he will defeat Hobson by a decisive majority" said B. l.. Saunderson of St. Louis.
 Without regard to Underwood's op- ponent the democracy of the United States would be greatly disappointed if the distinguished statesman failed to be elected. He is not only admired as a national character but in my opinion and in the opinion of many staunch party men as one of the greatest assets of the nation. I have been east recently and there is as much interest there in Underwood's candidacy as there is in the south and west.
 since coming to Alabama leara that Mr. Underwood will have a land slide majority"

England's Art Locked Up

As a result of the outrage com- mitted by May Richardson, suf- fragette, who slashed the famous Vel asque painting known as the Rokeby Venus, it is announced from London that practically all of England's art treasures will be withheld from public view indefinitely. The lord chamber lain announced that the state depart ments in Windsor castle would be closed, while an order of similar na- ture has been issued for the National | gallery, the Wallace art collection, kensington palace and Hampton Court palace. The $2O, ,OOO, ,o00 collec- tion of oriental bronzes and objects dart, donated to the South Kensing- ton museum by George Salting, a Danish collector, is also closed to the public.
 l There is much division of opinion among English people as to the wis dom of this course. Hotel managers claim that in view of the fact that many Americans come to England to see works of art, closing the galler- ies will hurt the hotel business. They say that reports of militant outrages have already done much to keep American tourists away from Lon don, many believing that they run the risk of being blown up if they venture to pay the city visit.
 The British government tacitly ad- mits its inability to cope with the militant suffragettes. John Bull con- tinues to growl, but will take no drastic action for fear of "an outburst of antagonistic emotionalism." In the meantime fanatical females do very much as they please and there seems to be no limit whatever to the acts of vandalism of which they are ca pablo.
 Things have indeed come to a pret- ty pass when a great government con- fesses that it is powerless to protect not only the lives and property of it's

The Farmers Opportunity

l Alabamas almost phenomenal in- crease in the production of corn, po- tatoes, alfalfa and other foods for the economical fattening of hogs and cat tie should result in greatly increased production of hogs.
 Such an industry would be one of the greatest resources that any plant CT or any community could hope to ac- quire and one that should commend itself to every farmer in the state of Alabama.
 So far planters have been unable to combat successfully the boil weevil when it gets a good start, but they can keep ticks from cattle and can, by constant diligence, preserve hogs from their greatest enemy, the chol era. For the stamping out of this last evil both the national and state agricultural departments stand ready to assist and the importance of such assistance may be emphasized by the report of the director of the state ag- ricultural college extension depart ment of Iowa.
 The figures show that in that state the hog cholera cost the farmers S33, 100000, an amount greater by two and a half times that of the loss of the previous year. In 1913 three million hogs in that state died from cholera and this number repre-
 sented nearly 35 per cent of the total hogs in Iowa.
 Most of the owners of these animals which died failed to accept the ad- vantages and help offered by the na- tional and state agricultural depart ments. Where such assistance was ac- cepted the results showed that where healthy hogs were treated with serum the loss was less than 21a per cent, while sick hogs so treated lost but 16 per cent of their number and a major portion of such loss was due to the use of poor and inferior serum. Thus with almost certain evasion of cholera assured and with the financial possibilities that hog raising presents it is to be hoped that the Alabama farmer will be wise and avail himself of his opportunities.

The Business Situation

Henry Clews in his Saturday review says that hesitation is still the rule in business circles. This is not only true of the United States, he points out, but of all commercial nations The review says in part
 Our railroad situation continues ex. ceedingly unsatisfactory. A number of trunk lines have reported very discour- aging gross and net returns for the past two or three months. Revenues are fall ing away while expenses steady rise. The necessity for some compensation in the matter of increased rates to meet in creased charges is becoming more and more insistent, and the seemingly preju- diced attitude of the interstate commerce commission is stimulating the rising tide of criticism.
 1.-The forced reduction of express rates was a symptom of this prejudice The efforts to pass d new series of antitrust bills are also discouraging to new enter prise and initiative, which in turn az gravate the reactionary tendencies in bus

By BILL VINES

1 to throw fits and gnaw the woodwork | Be it known that it is now the sole and' single province of the well known UnitAd State Serate to be the trustee and guardN
 ian of the plain people. In no way, there
 fore, must any person whatsoever, ann
 bassudor and M. P, or otherwise, direct ly or indirectly, imply. or even hint that
 anything dcne in this country in which the aforementioned well known United States Senate has Q hand is not done for
 the diIect benefit of the said plain people,
 and they are hereby constituted the sole benefieiaIies of such act Such person if lie commits such a blunder must feel
 the wrath of said Senate, and nothing short of neins shot at sunrise is deemed i sufficient punishment.
 It took several days for the Senate to calui itself Only upon the assurance from the state department that a full explanation would be forthcoming from Walter Mines at once would the Senate
 refrain from remaining in a high state of excitement and rage. In the meantime Walter Hines stock as a real, honest-to- goodness diplomat went off several hunA
 dred per cent in the open market
 Walter explained by wire that he hadr
 not beer quoted in full. Thereupon the Senate fell back with gasp and won-
 dered fl there was any more of it. He
 also said that he was the victim of "con-
 densation," and immediately got himself in bad with the prohibitionists in Con-
 gress. He said he had spoken extem- poraneously, and got a reproof from WilA
 liam J. for not coniining himself to grape juice.
 | However. We predict that when the truth | IS known about it, the whole affair will
 be found to be a mistake. In diplomacy it is easy .toS Sclear up mistakes of this kind The Texas Rangers gummed up the cards by crossing the border and vio-
 lating international customs in a totally
 reckless and unseemly manner. They
 boasted of it the next day, but when g., yelp went up about it, it was suddenly
 discovered by the diplomats that the rang

 they were merely attending pink tea at

 are prepared to believe that he was out

cerned from that of several decades back
 Time was when venerableness and age seemed essential for the acquire ment of the senatorial toga, but to- day the average age of the members of the upper house is 5S years. There are at present 90 senators who were born after the opening of our civil war, and they appear as boys to most of the ex-senators who were already gray when they entered the service.
 The oldest living ex-senator in point of service is Gen. William Sprague of Rhode Island, who took his seat in 1862 and he is closely fol- lowed by Judge Edmonds of Vermont and Henry G. Davis of West Virginia.
 Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin is half century older than Senator Lea of Tennessee, but he is an exception to the rule as to the age of present senators, and while Tillman is just 67, there is not corporal's guard left of his colleagues when he took his seat in 1895.
 Historically the Senate is venera- ble body, but this fact is not stressed at present by the presence of many graybeards, and death is fast decimat- ing the ranks of those who have seen long service in the harness. The toga is losing its rustiness and evidence of Wear

Regarding Music Festival

AS has been often remarked symphony orchestras are expensive institutions, and the orchestra is the most expensive feat ure of the average music festival" said an old music lover, but it is hoped that we will be able to bring an orchestra here this spring, and have a grand festival with chorus, soloists and orchestra.
 Festivals have seldom been financially successful. There is usually a deficit; but nothing so promotes musical taste nothing is so educational musically-as a symphony orchestra and grand chorus combined.
 Those who recall the large chorus of years ago trained and directed by MT. Guckenberger remember what general in terest was felt in the festivals which he got up.
 "We have q chorus here now larger than any that MT. Guckenberger directed. It
 is composed of select vocal material. MT.
 Rienzi Thomas is the director, and he will be able, he says, to give the beau- tiful oratorio, Paradise Lost" music by Dubois, in May. Of course, there could be no festival without an adequate orchestra, and it would certainly be a great pity to have a large band of singers capable and ready of singing large work and not have an orchestra to make a fes- tival possible.
 T have had great deal of experience on the financial side of festivals and sym phony orchestras. One reason the box of- fee receipts have been less than expenses is because of lack of interest which the parents show in sending their children who are taking music lessons to high class concerts. piano recital is good thing, but greater than all is grand orchestra and chorus.
 "A festival with two night performances and a matinee would cost about 5000. It seems to me that there should be enough
 enterprise here to get up the guarantee. With concerted action on the part of the
 Music Study club and other music lovers it should be easy to raise the necessary
 guarantee. But whatever is done must be done within the next few days, because orchestras are not available on short mo- flee
