NEGRO JOY RIDERS
 COME TO GRIEF
Chauffeur Takes Mrs. T. w. O'Byrne's Car Without Permission and
 Lands in Ditch

The 1914 Cadillac automobile of Mrs. T. W. OByrne was overturned and wrecked one-half mile from Green Springs late yesterday afternoon while the negro driver was 'out spinning with some ne- gro guests, without the permission of Mrs. OByrne. The car was overturned into a ditch while taking a rather severe curve, and 1t was necessary for the Dren- nen Motor company forces to go out af- ter the upturned machine.
 At her home yesterday afternoon Mrs. OByrne said that the negro was not au- thorized to use the car yesterday after noon, and that he decided to take the drive resulting in the wreck of the ma chine without the permission of any member of the family authorized to con fer such authority.
 It was stated that one of the negroes in the car was slightly injured, although the. participants in the ride disappeared before any help arrived from the garage.

SCHOOL
 MEETING WANTED
Radcliffe and FOwlkes Leave for Mobile Armed With
 Arguments

Armed with numerous arguments. Secretary William c. Radcliffe of the Chamber of Commerce and Secretary sam II. Fowlkes of the Business Mems league last night left for Mobile to se- cure the 1915 convention of the Ala bama Sunday School association for Birmingham. The principal argument the two secretaries had slowed away in their travelling bags was 'Birming- ham,
 Already Gadsden, Anniston, Mont gomery and Mobile have made bids for the 1915 convention of the Sunday school people. and Birmingham has been quiet But today the secretaries of the leading civic bodies will be In conference with the leaders and friends of Birmingham and there Is no doubt in the minds of Birmingham citizens but that the association will convene here next year.
 It is pointed out that the main thing desired by the Sunday school workers in convention is numbers. Tn other words the city that can assure the largest crowd at the convention proba- bly will be selected as the meeting place in 1915. It will be shown by MT Radcliffe and MT. Fowlkes that Bir- mingham has always proved the best convention city in the state for state organizations. there being more people in attendance when the association met here than at any other city in the state The recent convention of the Alabama Educational association held here will be pointed to as an example of Bir- mingham's pulling power.
 The facilities for taking care of a largo number of delegates will also be used as an argument why the Sunday School association should convene here next year. There will be several new hotels and ample accommodations for $500 or 4000 delegates will be furnished.
 While in Mobile the two secretaries will make bids for two other conven- tfons which are in session at the Gulf City. Secretary Radcliffe will have in- vitations from the board ot commis- .foners and the Chamber of Commerce and Secretary Fowlkes will carry the cordial invitation of the Business Men' 6 league. "If Birmingham does not se- cure the convention 1t will not be from lack of effort" they declared at the train.

JEFFERSON BANK
 SELLS OLD HOME
Well Known Structure Changes Hands, the Price Paid Being
 S150,0OO

The five-story building on the south east corner of Second avenue and Twenty first street the home of the Jefferson County Savings bank, has been sold to the Jefferson Realty and Building com pany for s15O,000, according to an an- nouncement yesterday. The building Is now occupied by the bank. which will. in a few weeks, occupy it's new home in the 25-story slyscraper now being com pleted diagonally across the street
 The lot is 50 feet on Second avenue by 70 feet deep running south to the lot owned by Major b. M. Tutwiler which faces on Twenty-first street It has al- ways been the surmise that Major Tut wiler would acquire the corner now oc- cupied by the bank.
 Eugene F. Enslen, president of the bank and vice president of the operat- ing company, said last night that the sale had been made, but said the owners had not determined yet what would be done with the structure. c. E. Thomas, of Wimberly X Thomas. who Is vice president of the Jefferson County bank, Is presi- dent of the Jefferson Realty and Build- ing company, which company also owns the new 25-story bank building.
 It is surmised that the first floor now occupied by the bank will be arranged for commercial houses. It is possible that the entire building will be renovated and the whole space leased for a com mercial house. but nothing definite has been determined At present the four upper floors are offices.
 The building is landmark in Birming- ham, and has increased tremendously in value. Tt was first two stories high and was at that time considered away out of town. Subsequently three stories were added and this city was agog with the wonderful skyscraper erected there.

It is unfortunate that many people feel when they have kept their door yards clean that there ends their interest in the work of Keeping the oity clean. Just here Is where the work in the schools can be of such great benefit. With proper line of instruction and persuasion on the part of the teachers the children will natural ly absorb an interest in the work of making city beautiful. While we are working for one object we can, with just R slight diversion. secure such an inter- est of the children in this work as that we will soon be aided wonderfully. So it Is hoped the school will have these ideas kept in constant view of the pupils of our schools.

Action on Detective
 Department Delayed

According to statements of members of the city commission no action will be taken at the commission meeting today effecting the city detective department. No conference was held yesterday by the commissioners. however, regarding what they would do at the meeting today and 1t is possible. 1t Is said. that at con- ference between the three this morning they might change their minds.
 It is generally believed that the com- missioners intend to consolidate the de- tective and police departments under Chief of Police Martin Eagan, but as to when such action may be taken there is yet no Information.
 Judge Lane stated yesterday that, of course. he wanted to abolish the separate detective department. but that he had held no conference with the other two commissioners and therefore did not yet know what might develop at the meet ing today.

 Careless Pedestrians
 There is less of that cutting across grass plots than heretofore. there Is yet entirely too much of it. We are informed by a gentleman who has spent quite a neat sum putting his place in shape that on Sunday afternoon, while seated on his porch, a well dressed lady made a long. diagonal trail across a newly made lawn. and when she observed she had done so in the presence of the owner. she was the first to speak, and made a most sat isfactory apology, promising to do SO no more So 1t is with us all-there are times when we drift back into this careless way.
