Mrs. Roberts Has the
 Most Original Booth

Mrs. H. B. Roberts received the first prize at the Alabama State Fair for the most original booth. the prize being The Age-Herald for a year. Mrs Roberts carried out the idea of diversified crops in the decoration of her booth, using the Santa of Bounty" and at his side the Christmas tree loaded with pack ages for each county. In Santa's hand is a package for the whole family, con- taining peace prosperity and plenty all of this, if diversiflcation is practiced. Of course, the chimney and mantel are there, with stockings labeled Mobile and containing a ship; and Jefferson, con taining courthouse.
 Besides embroidery, crochet, preserves, conserves and canned fruit of all kinds Mrs. Roberts has in her booth several articles of furniture and a fireless cooker, all of which she made herself. show inS that woman can do other than the proverbial fancy work.
 There are several original motoes on the wall and a poem entitled Prosper ity" which Is as follows
 Alabama, here we rest.
 Safe from ills that once distressed We have capital now to let
 Safe from effect of foreign strife, We've done away with parasitic life; Safe from weevil and tick so bold, We've driven them out of our stronghold. Safe from the rule of one-man alone Old King Cotton has lost his throne Cattle and hogs, oats, corn, wheat and
 hay
 Now with cotton acreage hold sway Peace, prosperity and plenty here abide For our crops are now diversified.
 The woman's department this year was q great success and most of the space has already been engaged for next year.

INSTALLATIONS OF MR. BARBER UNFOUNDED SAYS GEORGE WARD
Former Says He Was Not Making Insinuations, But Answering Questionable
 Reflection Was Intended

G. Ward, president of the city com mission, resenting a statement made by Arlie Barber, candidate for a seat on the commission, issued a statement yesterday declaring that insinuations of the candidate that there was lack of publicity in city hall affairs. was unfounded.
 Mir. Barber also issued a statement. He declared that his remark was made in reply to a question from someone in audience, and was not made for the purpose of crticizing the municipal government.
 MT. Barber admitted that the records of the city had been open to him in every particular.
 MT. Wards statement follows:
 q have steadfastly endeavored to keep the city government out of the pending municipal campaign and will continue to do so. but am determined ed to challenge any statement or reflec- tion from any candidate or other per- son of this administrators financial conduct
 T have not heard any of MT. Bar bers speeches and the report in The Age-Herald is the only insinuation about this government I have heard of Mir. Barber making.
 People Knew Everything
 MT Barber says If I am elected the people shall know everything concern ing their government I wish to say that the people have known every thing concerning this government ever since l have been at the city hall and will continue to know everything about 1t whether MT. Barber Is elected or not.
 MT. Barber says4T an audit Is need ed there will be an audit, and the peo- pie will be advised as to the amount of money they are paying Into the city, how it is used. and everything else they want to know concerning their government.' I wish to say that under the law an audit is required to be made by expert accountants once ev cry year and published in a daily news paper. The law has been followed rig idly. Not only that, additional audits have been made and everyone pub lished.
 "The people have been advised as to the amount of money they are pay ing into the city by monthly and by annual statements. They have been ad vised how it is used and every citizes has had a standing invitation to come up and look at the books and inves- tigate any and every item and any thing else they want to know about contracts and expenditures of the city.

GERALDINE TARTAR
 TO APPEAR AT STRAND
Picturized Version of Carmen" to Be Here Three Days This Week.
 Marie DorO Also

On three days of this week the public of Birmingham will have an opportunity to view Geraldine Farrar, most famous of all women artists today, in a pictur- ization of Carmen, which is billed for tho Strand theatre on the Paramount programme. Recognized as one of the greatest actresses of her general ton, Miss Farrar's characterize ton of Carmen" at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York last winter established her still higher in the esteem of opera lovers Her photo-production of the play was seen by thousands upon thousands of New Workers, who gladly paid up to s2 a seat for the privilege.
 Everyone knows the story of "Carmen;" ;" of how she, half-wild gypsy, lived with a band of smugglers in the mountains near the coast of Spain; and of the strug- gles her companions had attempting to get illegal goods across the border, be- ing blocked by Don Jose, a young off cer Carmen is brought into the plot when the smugglers get her to go into the city and capture the heart of the young officer She does so. and the ac- ton that follows is typical of the Spain of olden days, and keeps the interest tense throughout.
 The tragic ending of the play, when Carmen is killed by the enraged Jose, after spurning his love, is enacted only as Farrar could do it.
 Marie Doro is another famous star who is to appear at the Strand this week in the Paramount programme. She comes in 'The White Pearl" and will be seen Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday will have a good programme on the bill and President T. s. Abernathy of the Strand Theatre company promises his patrons treat for the week.

Answer From Barber

citizen invited to investigate any sub iect or detail of any subject that he might be curious about or interested in"
 Answer From Barber
 MT Barber replied as follows:
 with reference to the statement by Mr. Ward, will say that I was not fully quoted by the reporter, but certainly as fully quoted as could be expected and desired unless a verbatim report was made, which, of course, was out of the question.
 q did not criticize the present admin istration for lack of publicity, but in an- swer to a question from some one in the audience as to whether or not l would have the books of the city audited, | re- piled that they would be audited as often as required. Whether or not they had been (and about that could not say for I was not informed) I was not informed but meant no criticism whatever on the pr esent administration, and so particC uarly stated. I have always courted questions from my audiences, and hSye answered them fully, frankly, freely and fairly. I know not what my quessoner had in mind. nor do I know who he was, nor what prompted him to ask this ques- ton, but I simply answered in a general way that the books of the city should be and would be audited as often TO- quired if I was elected.
 What MT. Ward says about all the records of the city being open to me is absolutely true. I have not only had access to all the records of the city since my campaign, but even prior thereto I have been given every consdera tion and given every particle of information that I have requested from the present admin istra tion without any reticence whatever I can fully indorse every word MT. Ward has written, so far as I am in position to know'
