SHIP DAMAGED BY
 COLLISION IN FOG
Kaiser Wilhelm With 1000 on Board Is Struck by
 Grain Steamer

Southampton. June 1.-The North Ger man Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II, which left Southampton shortly after noon today for New York with a thou sand passengers, is anchored tonight off Nettley, three miles to the southeast, with big hole in her side amidships, caused by a collision with the Liverpool grain steamer Incemore from a Black Sea port for Antwerp.
 The 1ncemore, a smaller craft than the German steamer. is in dock here with her bows badly smashed
 The collision occurred in the English channel in fog. Just how it occurred and which vessel was responsible could not be ascertained tonight Officers of the Kaiser Wilhelm II refuse to give out any information. Scant details came rom the Incemore. That vessel, those on board said, virtually had stopped be- cause of the danger of continuing un- der way in thick fog. when suddenly there loomed up just ahead of her the Kaiser Wilhelm
 Both captains did their best to avoid a collision, but the Incemore struck the liner on the starboard sideamidships. The impact crumpled up her own bows and tore a big gap in the Kaiser Kilhelm's & side.

Toomer in Anniston Address Declares Present Law Regulating Sale of Habit Forming Drugs Not
 Being Rigidly Enforced

Anniston, June i7.--(Special )-Taking 8 rap at fake legislation, President s. L. Toomer made a strong plea for com. mittee to represent the Alabama Phar- maceutical association at the next Ala bama legislature in the interest of pub lie health in his annual address before the association here today.
 President Toomer declared that the present law regulating the sale of habit forming drugs is not being enforced as il should be, and he urged more stringent measures to ferret out the violators The delegates were entertained this evening at oxford Lake where a big barbecue was served.
 A witty address by Dr. J. l.. Wikle. mayor of the city and himself an "old- fashioned pill-roler," as he expressed it, was the feature of the opening session of the Alabama Pharmaceutical associa- tion here Wednesday morning.
 The convention was called to order by President s. l.. Toomer Rev. John D. Wing delivered an invocation, and the address by Dr. Wike followed, response being made by pr. Sam William of Troy.

 "On behalf of the city of Anniston, take pleasure in assuring you of a cordial welcome to the Model City. and to say that we highly appreciate the honor you have shown by selecting Anniston for your thirty third annual meeting place.
 "Ordinarily, when there is any speech making to be done on the part of the city, I generally select someone with more oratorical powers than I possess to do it. I am just an old-fashioned pill roller, and am not much at rolling out dope with my tongue, but as I am druggist myself I felt that I should come out and tell you how glad we are to have you with us.
 'I want you to meet our hospitable people and see their beautiful homes They think a good deal of druggists in Anniston; In fact, they have gone so far as to make me mayor several times, and there is almost always druggist on the council.

News of Ensley

The trolley wire on the South Ensley car line broke yesterday afternoon about 4.45 o'clock and fell, striking two @ittle gard, each 10 years old, painfully but not seriously injuring them. The accident happened on the corner of Twentieth street and Avenue E. Just as the South Ensley car, No. 245, in charge of Motor
 man Golden and Conductor Shipman, was turning the curve the trolley pole jumped off the wire, breaking the several wires which were holding it up. As the wire swung to the ground 1t struck the two
 little girls and knocked them down, burn ing both of them.
 The children were badly frightened and ran down the street screaming. It was
 several minutes before they could be quieted down enough to find out the trou- ble. It is said that the force of the trolley wire in falling was the only thing that saved them from being severely injured by the electricity. They were rushed to Dr. w. H. Waynne's offices, where it was found that they were painfully burned about the right side.

 Reflection on Home Scenes

It Is peculiar thing-folks back home want to hear from here, but they never seem to think of sending fellow paper from home. Tonight as write the people back home are returning from church. Henry Ed mcnds has delighted an audience at South Highlands; his sermon in the paper has helped hundreds more. All over the states godly men have been preaching the gos- Del of peace on earth, good will to men," and folks are moving back home with hallowed hearts and their thoughts turned toward those finer things which compose the God side of man. My wife and children are back home, and some boys are kneeling at mothers side ask ing an All Wise Creator to keep daddy safe and bring him back home,'' then from their hearts will go a prayer for the great President of a great nation, asking that the source of all wisdom may guide his hand as the ship of state moves over stormy seas to the end that human life may be saved and justice triumph. God grant that when my children reach man 8 estate they may not fire mems souls to war with frenzied editorials in which the spirit of conquest is dominant but rather that, then as now, they. may realize that he that conquers his own soul is greater than he that taketh a city,
