NESB|TT PLANS FOR
 SOME ACTIVE WORK
Members of Democratic Ex- ecutive Committee Will
 All See Service Here

If the plan of W. D. Nesbitt, chairman of the state democratic campaign eommit- tee, is agreed to by the remaining mem- bers of the committee, the duties of the members for the first time in the recent political history of the state will be more than those which consist in mere perfume tory service. The chairman has suggested to the members that two of them serve each week of the campaign. remaining during that time of service at headqnar- ters.
 For the first week of the active period of campaign, beginning September s. ". H. Lindsay of Choctaw county and A. c. Patterson of Morgan have been called upon to assume charge of headquarters under the management of the chairman.
 MT. Nesbitt has called the members to- gether for September 2S in Birmingham. He announced yesterday that immediately. following that meeting, headquarters would be prepared for business, and that campaign active work would be in order. MT. Nesbitt is determined that the vote of the republicans shall be smaller than ever before recorded in Alabama. He is certain that every nominee of the party for state office will be elected. He is anxious, however that republicans lose their holds in the few counties in which as a rule they have been successful in electing officials.
 The chairman made the announcement yesterday that Col. R. A. Mitchell Of ftadSdap mi ,1aa,. .,f ba is~,, mittee from the state at large had agreed to serve as vice chairman, and that J. B. Garber of Birmingham had agreed to at as committee secretary

city, There were two furnaces and a rolling mill and a railroad was being built at that time necessitating a large number of laborers and the "Buzzard Ruost" of Fort Payne was inhabited by degraded white people and negroes. Two police officers were detailed to maintain law and order in that locality but were utter failures as they could never be found when any shooting started. Finally conditions got so bad that property owners remonstrated with the mayor of Fort Payne and Robert Hawkins was ordered to makN . Christians out the 1awless of "Buzzard Roost." He did!
 "There were some bad old days, about 20 years ago, at Fort Payne" said Captain Hawkins reminiscently, land looking back I realize just how fortu- nate I was to live through all that trouble.
 Notorious Gamers Hall
 "In that bad locality of Fort Payne. where only niggers and low down whites lived there was a negro dance hall known as Gamers hall and this was a combination 'honk- -a-tonk,' gam bling he'll and murderers hangout. It was the toughest place that I have ever struck in all my police experience.
 Many officer had tried to enforce law and order about Gamers hall but all had signally failed as they could never manage their feet when the shooting began. Not that one can blame them as most feet become un manageable when bullets begin to fly! Unless a man Is a fatalist he is very likely to move and move quickly under such circumstances. But I diverge from my story.
 ''Well, the property owners had made such a howl to the mayor about the lawless conditions existing near 'Ga- ncr's hall,' that this harassed official who had noticed my modest efforts in another part of the town in police work suggested that I should be detailed to that particularly tough beat ac-

urer to see that all warrants are legally drawn as to form and amount.
 The payment of warrants. however. Is the smallest part of the county treas urer's work, He must receive the re- ports of the several justices of the peace as to number of cases tried and the dis position of fines collected. He has to pay the jurymen In attendance on the several courts, and often as a matter of courtesy keeps his office open until late at night in order that they may reach their homes on the night they are dis charged.
 The general public enjoys many cour- tesies at the hands of the treasurer that would not be extended by a business in- stitution. The treasurer takes no legal holidays and keeps his office open from morn until night.
 The treasurer must be versed in law re- lating to his office, have a knowledge of banking and must be a bookkeeper. He must be courteous and diplomatic as he has many things to explain to the people who have business with the office. The office of treasurer is perhaps the most important office to the taxpayers of the county.

ried and has several children. He has quiet, unassuming man. He became a member of the Birmingham police department in 1897 and was elected sergeant in 1908. In April, 1913 he was elected by the city commissioners to a captaincy and has served the city in that capacity ever since.
 He is a familiar figure about the down. town streets as for the past few months he has been in charge of the day shift. His tall, gaunt form rapidly striding. up the street in his trim uniform with military salute for every acquaintance impresses. A few days ago he was given the morn- ing shift, which means that he now goes
 on duty at Il o'clock at night and works until o'clock in the morning. It also means that "Old Blue Steel' is up all night guarding the property of the citi- zens.
 It means that no police officer can sleep on his beat and get away with it as Cap tain Hawkins has the reputation of ap- bearing when least expected and as he
 rides a bicycle he covers all parts of the city, so that even the bicycle scouts have
 to be Ion the job" as the willy captain
 may run up on them at anytime. Illustrating His Reputation As for the negroes, they all know him,
 and especially know the sound of his voice. An incident illustrating this hap pened few nights ago. Captain Hawkins and Officer Crump
 went to negro house to look for a sus- pect The negroes inside were awak-
 ened by the loud humping of the officers
 on the door, and on their query Captain Hawkins, in his habitual drawl, said: Open up, nigger. this is an officer" The captain had no more than spoken before shrill voice from a negro woman was heard:
 "G' wan open dat door, you fool nigger. dats Old Blue Steel out dar--" And the negro children were then heard crying.

RECITAL BY TANNING.

Cecil Tanning. baritone, selected
program somewhat out of the ordinary
for his recital at the Illinois last eve-
ming. appearing under the auspices of
the Sisters OF the Visitation before
an audience that filled the theatre.
The selections that he presented are
those not commonly chosen for con
cert program, but at that were very
pleasing. Mr.. Tanning has a voice of
much sympathy and considerable
sweetness and he sang very well al
though attempting nothing in which
his full power and ability were shown.
His rendition of the dramatic ballad
Edward" by Loewe was very well
given and called forth much praise.
Mr.. Tanning was perhaps at his best
in the folk songs OF the old French
and old English into which he put the
proper lieder spirit combined with a
spirited reading. The audience de-
manded a number of encores that
were graciously given. II. b. Turpin,
