LETTERS TO EDITOR
The Street Car Wrangle

To the Editor of The Age Herald:
 If our citizens would quit kicking think the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company would soon give Us an p-to-date car service. l don't know a corporation more considerate of the public comfort and welfare. The officers have pleasant manners and cheerfully answer all inquiries and complaints. In all my experience in street car travel l have not found q more polite and gentlemanly set of motormen and conductors. When my friend Morrison was chief the dispatch CTS were faithful. Since his promotion I am not so familiar with that depart ment His successor can't afford to low CT the standard. I came to Birmingham when mules and an uncertain dummy furnished the motive power for trans portation. Changes for the better are manifest on all sides
 I live on a line where there is a large colored contingent The women do our cooking, nursing and laundry ing. The men cultivate our flower yards. gardens and work at the plants in our section They are not only a convenience but necessity. These pub lie utilities could not run without their colored laborers. Our ladies are not hankering for the washtub. On and off the cars these colored folks are uni- formly polite and respectful to white people, who, in turn, are sober and con- sderate of others. They know that this is a white mans country and will be dominated for o'l time to come by the superior race jther matters more than the segregation of the races give us concern. Respectfully,

CATHOLICS CONDUCT
REQUIEM MASS FOR
BELOVED POPE Plus.

st. Andrews church was filled this
morning by hundreds of mourning
Catholics when a solemn pontifical
mass OF requiem was celebrated for
the repose Of the soul Of the late Pope
Plus x by Rev. F. A. Roell, rector Of
the church.
The Rev. Mr.. Cronin, rector Of st.
Mary's church, will hold a requiem
mass honoring the memory of the late
pope, the first of next week. The ex-
act time of the service has not been
announced.
The service this morning at ST. An
Grew's was one Of the most impress
s;ve services ever held at the local
church. The service was opened with
the organist playing the Dead March"
Orom Saul. A choir of children and
men then sang the Requiem Mass"
one of the most celebrated masses
ever written. Prayers were offered
and the usual ceremonies observed.
Altar Draped in Black.
The altar was draped in black and
the church presented a most impress
sive appearance. The mass of requiem
is one of the shortest services of the
Catholic liturgy and also one of the
most solemn. The surroundings made
the services seem all the more in-
pressive.
The love of the pope toward the
people was the theme of Rev. Roell's
sermon The rector when visiting the
late pope in his chamber at the vati-
can, was told by the pope to extend
his blessing to the local congregation
and this was done by the Rev. Roell in

they have met in eastern Prussia,
where they are advancing against the
Germans along line $50 miles long.
Seven Corps Oppose.
; The war office states that it has
no definite estimate as to the number
of Germans opposing the Russian ad-
vance, but the aerOplane scouts have
learned that there are from five to
seven corps, 100000 to 100000 men
scattered through East Prussia. This
Indicates that Germany has massed
almost it's entire army against the al
lies in the western theatre of war.
It is understood that 100000 men
have been modified by the general
stafY and that 100000 of these are
engaged in the campaign against Ger
many. They have driven a wedge
between the German forces.
So confident are the Russians that
their troops will enter Berlin within a
short time, that a fund is already be-
Ing raised to reward the first soldier
that goes into the German capital.
The contributions range from 500 to
two rubles. One hundred thousand
dollars has already been raised.

ACCIDENTALLY,

Wildrose, N, D.. July 2s.-Soren
Redalen, the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Ole Redalen, was shot and instant
ly killed by the accidental dis
charge of shotgun last Friday
eEening. Soren, Garbel Dibbing

shooting when, through some move
on the part of Dibbing or Soren,
the gun was discharged from the

ing the abdomen of Soren, killing
him instantly. Hans Hanson drove
into town and notified DR.. Lyman,
who left for the scene Of the acci-

POST0FE|CE At OES
LACS bURCLAR|zED
CLEVER CROOK WORKS SAFE
COMBINATION AND POCK-
ETS ONLY MONEY.

Des Lacs, N. D., July 30.-The
pcstoffice at this place was robbed
and about $40 in cash taken from
the safe, $50 of the money belong
ing to the" postmaster and. balance
to the department.. The thief en-
tered the living apartments which
are upstairs over the office, and
secured Mr.. La Brant's keys which
he used to obtain entrance to the
Office.
The thief was smooth one, for
he worked the ombination to the
safe, and while he had the chance
to take stamps, checks and other
valuable items he took nothing but
cash. No damage was done to the
safe or other fixtures, and when
the thief departed he locked the
door and left the keys in the key
hole.
A door knob was missing from
the door of the garage and it is
supposed that the theft put this in
his sack, making a sling with
which he was prepared for emer-
gencies.
Detectives are working on the
case, and think they have an old
offender to contend with.
