HENRY R. CARSE HERE|
 ON INSPECTION TRIP
President of Birmingham Realty Go. Finds COndi-
 tiOns Here Good

Henry R. Carse, president of the Bir- mingham Realty company and vice president of the Hanover National bank of New York, Is on one of his periodical trips of inspection to the company properties in this city. He said yester- York would open today week, accord . ing to all indications, and that the plans for the stock exchange opening will be matured during the next week or two.
 Mir. Carse had no announcement of special interest to Birmingham as to expected developments of the holdings of the Birmingham Realty company in this district. He said that the sale of lots on Chesnut Hill was very good would be continued as rapidly as pos sible. As for Norwood, MT. Carse said that General Manager Beatty had done splendidly on that development. He pointed out that the plans for the de- velopment had not been drawn by the imported landscape architects but had been drawn in the company offices by men who knew the frailties, desires and conditions of southern people much better than the imported architects. Mir. Carse said the bus line to Norwood was getting along fine.
 Tn Birmingham the conditions ap- pear better than one would expect, said MT. Carse. Our sales during Sep tember were very good. We were grati- fled with the way the people became interested in Chestnut Hill. our most re- cent development. We will continue to advance with that property and with our Norwood work but we have noth- ing planned at this time of any very great interest aside from this work"
 MT. Carse was shown over the de- velopments here yesterday by I. c. Be- atty. general manager of the Birming- ham Realty company. They visited in addition to their own properties some of the work performed by their com petitors. MT Carse was very much in terested in the residential sections of Birmingham.

AVONDALE ZOO IS AN INTERESTING PLACE .ONRA|NY AFT TERNOON Animals Take the Rain In Various Ways-Miss
 Fancy PhilOsOphi-
 cal in the Wet

Yesterday was the sort of day the ami mals at the zoo do not like. It was chilly and raw in the afternoon, but people who braved the indictment weather were well repaid for their pains. Ger tain characteristics of the animals may be better observed during rainy weather than when the sun is smiling and to the casual student they. are never more in- teresting than on just such a day as yesterday
 The attitude with which the inmates or the zoo view the rain is characteristic Those of the cat tribe who hate water ruffle up their fur and retire in disgust to the darkest corner of their cages, nor can any dainties lure them forth to plf y. Upon being disturbed they only spit and huddle closer to the wall.
 The feathered tribe are exactly oppo- site To them the water means no dis comfort, and they parade about in rain just as gaily as they would were there no water. The pheasants had every appearance of enjoying a bath after the long, dusty days and fairly reveled in the wet.
 Miss Fancy endured the rain philo- sophically as she does all changes of the weather. and displayed no further idio- syncrasy than in persisting in keeping her head under cover. She didn't appear to mind in the least the fact that the re- mainder of her body was being exten- sively wet so long as her hay was dry and her head safe.
 Another animal which did not appear to mind the weather was Teddy, the bear. Teddy has been rather restless of late as the winter months came on. If the bear were in colder climate he would seek some secluded cave and hole him self up for the winter, sleeping through the winter months while the snow was on the ground and living, not by sucking his paws, as some believe, but on the &C., cumulated fat that he has been storing away under his loose skin all the sum- mer Of course, where Teddy is fed all through the winter. and where there is no snow, there is no necessity of hiber- mating. but along about the middle of I~October or the early part of Novem- Der he begins to grow restless, a sign that ne IS Ietlink tnt call or the custom Ol unnumbered generations before him.
 Teddy sat in the mouth of his cave yesterday afternoon and looked out at the downpour with snug satisfaction. His tongue lolled out the side of his mouth and he appeared to rejoice in the fact that he did not have to be out in the wet. The instant a peanut was thrown through the bars, however Teddy would dart out, there would be flash of his red tongue and the goober would disappear while he hustled back to his post out of the rain.
 The deer and llama liked the rain the least. The deer huddled together and shiv~ cred, while the llama tramped restessly back and forth, stamping their feet oc- casionally as an evidence of their disap- proval of the weather.
 Each animal has it's own peculiar way of receiving the rain, and as said before 1t makes them even more interesting than they are on sunny afternoons.

 T must have been given a pretty severe fall" he said. T didn't know anything until this morning." he added.
 Miss DeShazo, who Is nursing MT.
