The Kings Waste Paper Basket

F rom FearSOnS s weekly.
 Situated high up in the huge block
 of government buildings that are now
 nearing completion in Stamford street
 London, and which will presently con- stitute the new premises of his majesty's stationery office, is a small
 strong room, to which only a few high officials will have access, and which has been nicknamed the Kings Waste Paper Basket.
 Here, in due course, will be stored Ill
 sealed sacks, each marked absolutely confidential" King Georges private waste paper, and discarded documents from the private offices of the prime minister and the foreign secretary, as well as other government papers to which extra secrecy attaches. The new waste paper basket" though small as rooms go. is a good deal big ger than the glorified cupboard whicn answers to like name and purpose in the present stationery office In Princes street, Westminster. But it will. nevertheless, require emptyfne periodically.
 When this happens a regular and very elaborate course of procedure Is
 followed. The sacks are not opened, but
 are carried, with the seals still intact to locked and covered van. They are then driven to a destructor, into which they are thrown bodily one by ono by an official from the stationery of. flee.
 In this way Is the possibility oi leakage of official secrets obviated.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Use of Troops During Strike
the Editor of The Age-Herald ::

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 In Ned Braces last Sundays disser- tation he presents in his usual graphic way the startling information or hear say that Henderson's supporters are criticizing Conner for sending troops to Jefferson county during the strike several years ago and in defense of the former governor Ned Brace says: Had he (Comer) not done so he would have been called coward"
 Not writing ex cathedra, but on my own motion desire to say that this is the first information have re- ceived that any such purile censure has eminated during this campaign from the Henderson forces; and am loath to believe that any such display of ignorance of law could come from the masses lined up for the candidate of our choice. For the information of Ned Brace and of any who "are mak- ing a mess of 1t in criticizing Conner for sending troops to Jefferson county" l desire to state that the ex-governor Is entitled to neither oensure nor praise for that executive act and that had he not compiled with the law in such cases made and provided he would have ! violated his oath of office and have been subject to impeachment, The question of ''cowardice' is not at issue, for in such oases tho direction to the governor by the law is imperative, no matter what his personal inclination in the premises may Do. Tho calling out of tho states military forces was au- tomntio, Therefore. If tho use of the military ''stopped tho warfare and pre- vented further disorders," 1t was the strong arm of the state and not tho man Conner that did the work Tn proof of this fact quote the following from the code of Aiabama,
 Section 7loe--Whoneve there Is any linsurreotion or outbreak of 8 formid- able character which has overawed or | threatens to overawe the ordinary civil authorities and the authorities in such county. town or eity have attempted and failed to queli the same by the use of the posse eomitatus, or it is apparent that such attempt would be uneieeE, the governor on certificate of nueh facts from any four censerv- atora ef the peace In such county, city | or town, or from any circuit judge, ehaneeiieF, probate judge. sheriff or justice of the supreme court, shall im- media teiy erder out such portion of the state treeps or militia ns hs may deem necessary to enforce the jaws and pre- serve the peace"
 l It seems, therefore, that this law 1 Is enough te guarantee tho peace and dignity of the state. no matter who ia elected governor, Respectfully,
 FRANK " EvANs.

W. B. OLIVER TALKS OF HIS PLANS UPON ENTERING CONGRESS
Will Be in Line With Policies of Party as Represented by President Wilson
 and Underwood

". B Oliver of Tuscaloosa the man whom Sixth district newspapers have hailed as the first congressman the dis trict will have since the day of Senator Bankhead. was in Birmingham yesterday.
 MT. Oliver was nominated in the recent primary by majority of several hundred over W. B. Bankhead of Jasper-nomt- mated after a spirited race which attract ed the attention of the entire state.
 T have not mapped out a course ot procedure" he said yesterday at the Bir- mingham Newspaper club. hut l will labor assiduously in the interest of our district A new congressman will have to go slowly if he hopes to amount 90 anything But we have fine district and one deserving the attention of the national Congress. l will endeayor to se- cure as much of federal aid for the bet terment of our nine counties as can be secured.
 T will be in line with the policies of dominant democracy as indicated by the stand of the President and of the leader MT Underwood. The democrats under the guidance of these two great demo- crats have accomplished much. regret  to proceed with force against 1luerta, the Mexican dictator, but in view of his repeated insults to our people and our flag no other course is open. At any rate, the war will not initiate to the disadvantage of the democratic party, and there is every reason to believe that the next President will be a democrat and the next.
 There is no sound reason for the fear that period of money strinsency $ upon us. The tariff bill when it becomes adjusted, will be of immeasurable value And the currency bill will relieve pres sure wherever pressure is. Both meas ures marked drastic departures. and time will be required for adjustment of the country to new conditions. Great bene- fits will accrue, however, in my opinion,
 Other well known people in Birmingham yesterday were State Senator Ernest B Fite of Marion county. and Charles B. Teasley, probate judge of Montgomery county.

Jimmie Barry, proved highly diyerting. The act was a novelty in it's treatment and ended in a surprise. Mrs. Barry ap- peared chic and was an excellent foil for the unique funmaking of her husband. This act met with much approval from the audience.
 "rhe Three Keatons," the old favorites of vaudeville, were on the tail end of the bill. The act has been unchanged by years of services-with the exception that the boy has grown up and is now almost a ble to lick his dad. Much laughter was caused by the antics of the Keatons and from the applause it was seen that the act would be popular the rest of the week.
 The bill closed with usual moving pic- lures.

Bijou-Emma Bunting

Farewell week for Little Emma Bunt- ing at the Bijou theatre was inaugurated last night with one of the best Monday night audiences of the season, which wit messed a splendid offering of Rachel Goldstein," the story of an immigrant girl in New York The play is frankly a melodrama, but it seems to be exactly what the Bijou audiences were craving, and it is so full of life and action that it pleases. The character delineations of the author are good throughout, and the l company handled them in a manner that was pleasing.
 Little Emma Bunting is seen this week in the first dialect part she has ever presented in Birmingham, and it was but another opportunity for the little star to show her versatile abilities as an actress She is Rachel Goldstein, and lives the part on the stage In excellent manner. As the determined, energetic child of the Hebrew race who is seeking the home of the free and the land of the brave, she Is excellent. It Is a part far away from any that Miss Bunting has played here before, and carries with 1t more strength and weight.
 In brief the story is of an immigrant
 
 der. To protect themselves, the mur- derers conceal some jewelry on her and accuse her of theft. Through the friend ship of a young Jewish boy among the first class passengers, Joe Rubens George Whittaker) she gets a fair chance and when brought to trial discovers that the | judge is her unclem, who came to Amer | ica and found fame and fortune. She is | adopted, and a trip to Europe for edu- | cational purposes follows. After being bounded by the murderers, she returns | to America and forces a confession from them. In her good fortune she doesn | fail to remember young Joe Rubens, her | former friend in the time of need. The
 scenes are laid in the storage of a boat coming over, the Savoy restaurant, the | living room in a flat and the interior of
 the Goldstein home on Riverside Drive. | The management announces that this afternoon Miss Bunting will present a sou | venir matinee and that every lady present | will ne presented with a souvenir photo- | nh, af pI1nf

Dope"

Just as the white slave pictures have aroused many communities and govern ments to the iniquities of the traffic in souls, so is Dope" an object leason equal ly as strong and forceful, with probably as great or greater lesson to teach. The pictures, as the name implies, have to do with the dope" habit which is one of the growing evils of America. and the cause of wrecking many homes and families. The pictures in realistic and true manner show how the habit is con- tracted, in what trivial ways 1t Is com- menced. how many physicians are re- sponsible. the awful road the dope fiend travels, and the certain depreciation.
 The pictures are in six reels and 125 scenes, and arc to be seen at 8 matinee daily and performance nightly this week
