DETAILS OF DEATH
OF ALLEGED SPY"

Amsterdam, Netherlands, Feb. 12.--
Further details are reported from the
Belgian frontier of the assassination
Of Nels De Rode, the Belgian who is
alleged to have betrayed Miss Edith
Cayell. the English nurse executed at
Brussels, to the German authori-
| ties. g. -. -
According to this story, the body of
a young man who had been killed by
two revolver shots was found in a
street at Schaarbeek, a suburb of
| Brussels, early one morning. He was
| at once recognized as De Rode, a man
| Of 25 years. son of a retired major of
| the Belgian army. The body lay be-
| fore the door of the mans parents,
but the father refused to receive it,
and it was taken to the public mortu-
ary.
! Immediately after the German
authorities heard Of the case they
gave strict orders that the affair
| should be kept as quiet as possible be-
cause they expected the police at the
same time to make every effort to dis
cover the assassin.
The news spread like wild fire. how
ever and before noon all Brussels
knew that man regarded by the
Belgians as a traitor had been put to
| death.

Sum Of $lS,2S3 Has
Been Raised For the
New ''Y" at the A. c.

The sum of $1S,2ss in four days is
the amount raised by the men. on the
agricultural college campus towards
the erection of a student Young Mems
Christian, Association building at the
college. This campaign is said by
those who have reason to know, to
have set record which to date,
has not been surpassed. The entire
amount Of money needed for this
enterprise will of course not come
from the students and faculty alone,
but 1t is believed by the men on the
campus that money from outside
sources could hardly be asked for until
payment had been made out of their
own pockets and by their own sacri-
fee. '- i &. .--,-
The number Of gifts at the end of
the four days numbered 451 showing
that a very large percentage OF the

dents had an actual part in the cam
pafgn. Every man gave generously,
and in some cases both students and
faculty men showed a most real spirit
of sacrifice. The fact that the average
amount given, for every man con-
tributing, was over $40 shows some
thing OF the backing which was given
the enterprise.

OF ALABAMA STATE FAIR
IS A PLEASING FEATURE
Work Has Begun Exhibits and inducements Offered Have

ports Good From All Departments and Out
look Is Very Promising

Mrs. J. B. Reid, manager of the wom-
ans department of the Alabama State
Fair, which will start next Thursday
morning, announced yesterday that the
exhibits for the woman's department
must be in by Saturday night. Mrs. Reid
explains that the woman's building Is
ready for occupancy and that the ex-
hibitors must get to work at once plac-
ing their exhibits if they are to be ready
in time for the opening. The deadline
for entrance has been set for Saturday
night.
Mrs. Reid states the womans depart
nent of this years fair will be better
than ever, and expresses the opinion that
it will set a standard of excellence which
will remain unbroken for years. The ex
hibits must be placed in this department
quickly. Mrs. Reid has spent almost
week decorating the buildings, all OF
which work she personally supervised, in
order that it might be made as neat and
attractive as possible. The results of her
work on the building will be astonishing
to thousands of fair visitors, who have
been accustomed to seeing the womans
building the most highly decorated of any
on the grounds. 1t will exceed this year
all previous attempts.

INJUNCTION RESTRAINING
REFERENDUM ON SUNDAY
PICTURES IS DISSOLVED
Judge Miller Hands Down Decision Holding Initiative and Ref
crendu Features of Five Commissioner Bill Constitution
al-opinion Expressed That Delay in Case Will Make
New Petition Necessary Before Election Can Be Held

Of over 1900 voters made the consent OF
the commission unnecessary.
But Immediately thereafter the cleo
ton commission was enjoined and delay
followed which is said to have nullrIed
the efforts of those opposing the Sunday
motion pictures. According to the opinion
of attorneys a new petition is necessary.
In any event it is considered at the
courthouse that the issue of Sunday mo-
ton pictures is settled for the next
several months as 1t is not expected that
there will be any concerted movement to
get up a referendum even if the supreme
court upholds the position taken by Judge
Miller until next spring.
CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTION
In his decision and opinion, Judge Mil
Ter dealt only with the question of the
constitutionality of the initiative and ref
erendum features of the five-commis-
sioner bill. BY holding that these fea-
lures were constitutional he sprang a
surprise on many local attorneys, inciud-
ing City Attorney NJ NJ. Ullman, who
had already voiced the opinion that the
initiative and referendum sections in the
commission bill were clearly unconstitu-
tionaL
No comment regarding the opinion of
Judge Miller was made at the city hail.
but it is understood that the city COM
missoners are well satisfied with the
trend of affairs regarding the status of
the question of motion pictures.
Judge Millers order dissolving the tenn
porary injunction against the election
commission was the second judicial opin-
ion handed down within "a hours knocking
out the complaints of citizens who sought
this method of legal procedure to right
their alleged wrongs.

MORE MEN NEEDED
FOR CRACK BATTERY
Lieut.. Thach and Sergt.
Badham Detailed on Re-
cruiting Duty

On account of the transfer of Il men
into the new Cavalry regiment, to ac-
cept promotions, Battery c. one of the
crack Birmingham military organiza-
tons is slightly below minimum strength
on the eve of its departure for the bor-
der next week and its officers are de-
sirous of securing a few recruits. Or
ders to move as soon as possible have
been received by both Battery A and
Battery C, in mobilization camp at Mont
gomery, and they expect to entrain not
later than next Wednesday.
Robert G. Thach first lieutenant OF
Troop L, Alabama Cavalry regiment, and
Robert j. Badham, who has just been
appointed regimental quartermaster ser
geant of the new cavalry regiment ar
rived in Birmingham last night to assist
in recruiting work for Battery C, OF
which they were members before being
promoted to higher positions in the cav
airy regiment. They will open a recruit
ing office Thursday morning at 223 First
National Bank building.
1t is said Lieutenant Thach and Ser
geant Badham were sent to Birmingham
by Colonel Steiner, their commanding
officer. because he did not desire Bat
terry to be below strength when it
men sustained by transfers and promo
tons from the battery to the cavalry
regiment The fact that the local bat
teries have actually received orders to
move to the border will doubtless stimu-
late recruiting.
