COUNTY TEACHERS : INSTITUTE ID OPEN
 HERE SEPTEMBER IA
About 1900 Expected to Att tend-InStructOrs Selected and Plan of Work
 Outlined

The annual institute for all teachers of S<the Birmingham city schools and of Jeff ferson county will be held in the Central High school building for one week, be- ginning Monday, September IA. The in- stitute will be in charge of a carefully selected corps of instructors, headed by C. B. Glenn, who have already outlined their plans of work.
 On account of the large number of teachers who will attend this institute, probably between 1000 and 1900, the work will necessarily be divided into depart ments as follows: First, general depart ment; second, Birmingham elementary school department third. high school de- partment.
 The sessions of the institute will begin promptly at o'clock each day and con tinue until 3:30.
 Lunch will be served each day from l2:l5 to Ills in the dining room of the high school, under the auspices of the com mittee of the Central High School Inn provement association. This will prove not only a convenience to the teachers, but very pleasing feature of the in- stitute. Many teachers are new to the work in the city and county, and will find an opportunity at this time of becoming acquitted with their co-laborers.
 A list of boarding houses convenient to the high school has been made up and copies will be in the hands of the .secre- taries.
 The general assembly period will be from 1115 to 12:15 daily in the auditorium of the high school At this time, dis tinguished educators will deliver addresses to which the public are invited.
 Among those who will address the in stitute at this hour will be State Superin- tendent w. F. Feagn, Superintendent F. M. McNeill, pr. J. II. Phillips of the city schools, and J. B. Hobdy of the agricul- tural department at Auburn.
 The state law makes attendance upon this institute compulsory and requires that careful record be kept by the secre- taries. All teachers are, therefore, ex- pected to be present and enroll at the opening hour Monday morning. At this time, short talks will be made, outlining the purpose and plans of the institute.
 After these addresses, the institute will be separated into departments and the assignment of teachers in the city school: announced

The British Troops

Special Cable to the New York Sun.
 From point behind the British | troops, August 30 Sunday evening". am not allowed to mention the place Ifrom which l am writing, but I have come in contact with the British troops. Thousands of them have just passed me, all from the front. There was one contingent of wounded among | them.
 The faces of the men are all red with the sun, their tunics are open at the throats, they are covered with thick dust. and for all the losses they recent | ly have sustained they take the war lightly, looking around them with a good natured laugh and waving a greeting to the townspeople. who look upon them as saviors and friends. 1 There Is difficulty in getting a con- nected account of the operations from the soldiers, and if one could do so it would be injudicious to publish 1t. But the campaign so far appears to have been series of stubborn, disciplined, tactical retreats tempered with some offensive feats of extraordinary gal lantry.
 | One of these as it was recounted to me today deserves to be put beside the most notable feats of the British army The Ninth Lancers seem to have re- peated under almost the identical con- ditions the famous charge of the Light l bTlRdue at BdlaklaVd.
 1 Since the beginning of the fighting the German artillery have been the bane | of our troops during the action at - which Is close to the Belgian frontier
 Terrible havoc had been caused in our ranks by great shells from battery of II guns inside a wood. By the dis posal of large quantities of forage the guns had the appearance of small hay
 stacks or something of the kind. Their first fire caused terrible loss to our men, who approached unsuspectingly
 Like Charge at Balaklava
 The same guns continued their fire for several hours, with continuous effect, and 1t seemerd impossible to silence their fire, when the Ninth Lancers made their heroic attempt They rode straight at the guns, debouching into the open and charging under a hail of me1inite or lyddite from other German guns.
 | l have not been able to get an ac- curate estimate of the distance they lrode, but they reached the guns-heavy guns almost approximating siege guns in size--cut down all the gunners and lput the guns out of action. Then, like | the prototypes at Kalaklava, they rode back and on their return fell in greater number still. All estimates of the loss must be received with caution. as sol diers become detached and re1oin their regiments later. I have met several lost regiments myself today.
 The whole forces here are speaking of this charge.
 Another gallant deed was that of Capt F. O. Grenfell of the Ninth Lanc- CTS He was hit in both legs and had
 two fingers shot off at the same time. Almost as he received these wounds a
 couple of guns posted nearby were deprived of their servers all of whom

SOME FRESH STORIES
 OF EUROPE'S GREAT WAR

splendid offensive in the history of mod ern war. Beside this, the suffering of millions of people, the temporary loss of half dozen provinces will not count Thereafter not the Anglo-French but the German army may be in danger, for Ger many can afford to lose lives but not time now with Russia coming up.
 For Americans to whom the recent days of desperate fighting in northern France must seem confusing and inexplicable there is an admirable parallel to be found in a civil war campaign. The Ion to Paris movement in 1914 is being executed with almost precisely the same strategy, spirit and determination which charac- terized the advance on Richmond of Grant in 1864.

Few Bales Sold in Jackson

Jackson, Miss, September 5--(Special) A few bales of cotton have been offered for sale in Jackson during the past week. but there is no market, no bidders or buyers ,and the farmers have either stored their bale or hauled it back home The best that has been offered here is cents. The farmer does not want to sell at that price any more than the buyer wants to pay it, and the conse- quence is there are no trades.

save one were struck by the bursting of shrapnel The horses for the guns had been placed under cover.
 We'll get the guns back" cried Grenfel1, and at that, with mum Der of his men, in spite of his wounds, he did manage to harness the guns up and get them away. He then was taken to a hospital
 There was a great feat of arms, too, at Solemes, east of Cambrai, on Wednesday, last A number of English regiments, but is is difficult to con- firm which with absolute accuracy, held an exposed position. They were expecting support all day. but the support was delayed. The enemy crept around them and the British, to avoid being encircled, charged the gradually enclosing German ring with the bayo- net.
 The men went at it yelling and shouting | and got through where there was gap. There was no more than 800 yards be- tween the enveoping German forces. On the gap the German artillery was trained with it's unfailing regularity and the loss of all these regiments was great. It is generally acknowledged that our troops have suffered very severely indeed and that they have behaved with great cour- age.
 Boer War Was Child's Play
  Men who took part in the South African campaign say that the hottest firing there was childish compared with that the troops have undergone in Belgium and France
 The German trenches are lined with machine guns. The infantry behind cause no perturbation. Their firing is valueless and their ranks are too packed for them to use their rifles properly. But their ma chine guns pour out an incessant sheet of lead and defend the trenches only too well. We need more such guns and more guns of a type to cope with the German aeroplanes, which hover above tho exact positions of our troops and mark the range for the German artillery.
 The drivers of these Taube machines are very daring and will fly following the whole length of four trenches. Our how tzers have brought down some. Our men brought one down the other day with rife fire. but there seem to be many more.
 The one complaint of our men here Is that they cannot get hand to hand with the Germans. Their shell fire prevents this. Most of the wounded are suffering from shell wounds. Bullet wounds are much less common.
