REPORTED FATHER
 STALL IS KILLED
Gadsden Priest Was Serving as Chap lain and in Red Cross Corps of
 the German Army

A report has reached Bishop Allen of Mobile that the Rev. Oswald Stah, pas tor of the Catholic church at Gadsden, recently serving with the German army, had been killed.
 The report has not been confirmed. but Father stahls friends here are fearing that 1t Is true The bishop will ask the German ambassador at Washington to have an investigation made and inform him as to the facts.
 Father Stahl and Father Mueller, pastor of the Catholic church at Blocton, both natives of Germany, went abroad in the summer of 1914, for their vacation, and while in Europe the war began. It s un- derstood that Father Stahl was serving as chaplain and also as member of the Red Cross corps.
 He was at one time assistant at St. Pau,'s church in Birmingham. From here he was transferred to Anniston and from Anniston to Gadsden. He was known as one of the most popular priests of this dis trict.

REV. WILLIS CLARK
 ACCEPTS CALL
Will Stay at St. Andrews Until the Vestry Se-
 cures Rector

Before a congregation that filled the church to overfiowing, the Rev. Willis G. Clark, pastor of St. Andrews Epis- copal church. announced at the morning service yesterday that he had accepted the second call to the rectorship of Trinity church, North Carolina. It was with much emotion that MT Clark told the congregation, whom he has served for the past four years that he had accepted the call and the announcement was re- ceived by them with the deepest regrets
 MT. Clark stated he would stay with St. Andrews until the vestry secured an other rector, and that he had so stipu- lated In his letter of acceptance to the of the severance of his connection with St. Andrews he stated that it was the greatest trial of his life. and that only the opportunities for greater field and greater work had decided him to make the change.
 Several weeks ago MT. Clark was called to the Asheville church and was waited upon by a committee from it's vestry who urged him to accept the call He paid a visit to Asheville and looked over the field. At a congregational meeting of the members of St. Andrews, held re- gently, resolutions urging him to stay with his present charge were passed, and many personal requests were made that he decline the call. After due con sideration, MT. Clark yielded to the so- licitations of his people and refused the call. A few days ago he received a sec ond and more urgent call and as stated above accepted it. The church at Ashe- vile is the largest and one of the most prominent in the diocese of North Caro- lima, and is the only Episcopal church at Asheville
 MT. Clark was called to St. Andrews s church January. 1912, coming here from St Stephens. Eutaw. During his able ministry of nearly four years the church has more than doubled it's communicants. He never tired in working for the ad- vancement of the church, and in addition was active in every work that had for It's purpose the moral, spiritual or civic up- lift of the community. By his earnest, conscientious and faithful service he has greatly endeared himself, not only to the members of his congregation, but to the scores of friends of all creeds and denominations with whom he has worked and labored.
 The present church building js monu- mont to MT. Clark's untiring energy. and 1t is with the greatest regret that he leaves the church with an outstanding debt. The building of the beautiful edi- flee was begun in the spring of 1S1; and on June 22 the corner stone was laid. The first service was held Easter morning. April {. 1915. and the church formally opened for service.

carried weight. I think the Idea was to place the bonds in England. and the iron companies had secured his services to make the report I never knew the re-. suit, but I imagine 1t was very favor able.
 MT. Bowron no doubt could tell more about tho result of this trip than I could. By the way. MT. Mathew was a good deal of the same type of a man as MT, Bowron. He was stout. athletic. rosy and with full beard.
 Two little instances of the day which we spent together may be interesting, In the first place, I knew we would be a little late in getting back to town, and thought 1t advisable we have lunch before going. At that time the Alabama club was located on the second floor of the Alabama National bank. right where the American Trust bank Is now located. ca He'd on the boy who had charge of the club to see what he could furnish in the way of lunch. He could only furnish q few sandwiches. but had plenty to drink. l asked him If he had Bass ale? He had. We went over and ate the sandwiches. and the expression of MT. Mathews face when he saw Bass ale was very striking. He said he felt like he had met an old friend. and he drank it with relish. I could not drink mine for 1t tasted like liquid quinine.
 '1n the afternoon when we had re- turned l remembered a Frenchman who had recently taken the cafe at the Metro politan hotel. had invited me several times to come around and take meals. called him up and asked him if he could fix meal for two, and he said he "cer- tainly could" come around in about a half hour. So I took Mir. Mathew down to dinner and we certainly had a good one. While we were enjoying it. Mir. Mathew asked if that was regular din- ner he served every day. You could im- agine how he asked that with rising in- flection I told him honestly l did not know. as I had never eaten there be- fore
 'I learned afterward that Mr. Mathew was an iron master in the Manchester district and furnaces were an old story to him

ST.PAUL' SCHOOLS ID OPEN TUESDAY Standard Curriculum and Uniformity of All Grades
 In Diocese

St. Pauls Parochial schools will open tomorrow It was announced yesterday that at a. m. Tuesday, September r a high mass of the Holy Ghost to invoke tho help and guidance of the Holy Spirit during the school year would be cee- brated at St. Paul's church. After mass the benediction of the blessed sacrament will be given. The Very Rev. Dean Coyle says:
 The parochial school sys.eyA of the Mobile diocese is one of the most ex- cellent in the country. Two years ago at tho biennial retreat of the clergy the Rt Rev. Bishop Allen appointed q school board with very ample powers to investi. gate the management and to increase the efficiency of the schools In the diocese The board set to work at once, and first of all invited from all the schools and the teaching sisterhoods and brother hoods views as to the best means to bring about uniformity in the curriculum and standard equal to any in the coun- try Afterward the various systems of the diocese that have strong and ef- ficient school boards were examined and from these systems the best was select- ed. Uniformity in text books and il ex- aminations was then settled upon, this uniformity to begin at the primary grades, becoming obligatory two grades . year till the entire course Is uniform. Moreover, pending the appointment by the bishop of superintendent of schools. the members of the board conduct tho examinations and promote from grade to grade.
 During the coming term the first four grades will be uniform in all the parochal schools of the diocese. and Catholic chil- dren in these grades moving from one parish to another will find no difficulty in being admitted to their respective grades. Moreover. there will not be any expense in purchasing different school books
 The school board of the Mobile dio- oese during the few years of it's exis- tence has done much for Catholic educa- ton. The various schools of the diocese have heartily co-operated. and at pres- ent the system will bear favorable com rarison with any systems in the coun- try. Year by year the enrollment is growing and new schools are being erect cd. the children of today are the citi- zens of tomorrow. and 1t behooves us to do our part to form and mould the chill dren so that the coming generation may be a generation of God-fearing. law abiding. Christian men and women. who will live in accordance with the prin- ciples of piety and patriotism that our Catholic schools so efficiently inculcate.
 "The prospects at St. Paurs and at all the parochlal schools of the Birming- ham district are very bright. We look for large and increa Sed enrolment dur ing the coming year.

REMINISCENT

Maj. w. ]. Cameron, pioneer banker and early settler of Birmingham, and at present member of the board of revenue. is taking great interest In the revival of the iron and steel industries of this dis grow from hamlet to it's present pro- portions, and has watched the industrial development of this district through all it's stages. In fact, in the early days he had much to do with them in a finan- cial way. Speaking of the present de- mand for iron and steel for export trade the major grew reminiscent, and related number of circumstances that hap pened in those early days when he was president of the First National bank. In this regard he rected the following in cidences:
 About 9 years ago a gentleman came in the First National bank and handed me letter of introduction from the Han over National bank of New York. He was William Mathew. member of Parlia- ment from Manchester, England. He was in this country inspecting our iron-mak- ing possibilities.
 "Of course I put myself at his service and asked him if he wanted to see fur naces or coal mines. He promptly replied that he did not; he wanted to see the ore deposit l arranged to take him down to Bedding. now called I believe, Ish- kooda. Procuring light surrey with a pair of good horses and good driver. we Were soon there. and every facility was afforded him for seeing the ore beds and getting samples of the same. which he took with him. Not long after that I received a copy of a paper called the Manchester Examiner In which his report filled two pages. l kept this paper for long time a souvenir, but it finally became misplaced. His report. l remem- ber was very favorable. He had actual
 y seen iron and of course what he said
