ANOTHER CALL FOR FUNDS
Not Enough Money Yet Subscribed To
Complete Cemetery Work.

One more call to the citizens Of
Evening Shade and vicinity through
the columns of our good and effici-
ent paper, the Record, may do some
good towards getting money deposit
ed for cemetery work.
We have enough money in the
bank to pay for wire and perhaps
some posts, but not enough for all
and to pay for putting up the fence.
Some of our citizens and a few that
have moved to other states have
responded to the call nobly and gen.
erously. Let us all be glad to do
our part. If our contribution is
small, even like the widows mite,
it will help some | am sure. Little
things are the sum of life, you know,
and often fill the place of want as
we'll as bigger things. The bank is
still open and waiting for your offer

district in the county failed to vote
a tax, that district being No 4S, at

After the dinner the Governor made

spoke OF the recent strained relations
between the United States and Mexico,
and congratulated them that the war
clouds seemed to have drifted over.
Only Il few weeks before he had the
harbor Of Drogreso mined. intrcnch-

which makes what he said all the more
forceful and remarkable.
After sketch!ng the history Of the
United States and explaining how the
country rose to great power and wealth

he told them that Mexico must now
wake up and take model from us: that
now was her goiden' opportunity to

COAL OPERATORS OFFER TO RENEW
 WAGE AGREEMENT
Continued from Page One)

in presenting the II demands formula ted at the Indianapolis convention of the union, asserted that the bituminous min prosperous condition and that the coal diggers were justified in asking for wage increase and for the betterment of working conditions.
 John 1T. White, international president of the United Mine Workers of Amer ica, presented the demands of the men after the joint conference had been or ganized by the election of Hugh Shirkie, an operator from Terre Haute, Ind, as chairman and William Green, represent inf the miners, as secretary. Mr. White and MT. Green urged the addition of the demands. Mr. White declared that the prosperity throughout the country was general and said that business con- ditions were such that railroads have been compelled to relieve freight con gestion at different points by placing embargoes on the shipment of certain commodities
 The offer of the mine owners to renew the present wage agreement will be for rnally rejected by the miners and the demands made by the organized men will be voted down by the operators. These steps are mere formalities. Dis cussion will be continued on the various demands and in the end subcommittees probably will be appointed to take up the questions at issue. The joint conference will meet daily behind closed doors from a. m. until l p. m.

T. ORMOND
 OF TUSCALOOSA IS
 NOT A CANDIDATE

Marvin T. Ormond of Tuscaloosa, so- licitor of the Sixth judicial circuit, will not be a candidate for delegate to the democratic national convention from the Sixth congressional district. An announcement to this effect was made last night by J. c. Persons, a well known attorney of Tuscaloosa, who is the law partner of MT. Or mond.
 It has been reported for the past several weeks that MT. Ormond was certain to be a candidate, but MT. Per- sons stated positively last night that MT. Ormond had decided not to make the race. MT Ormond served as dele gate from his district in the conven- tion of 1908, and since he is now hold ing a public office, it is stated that he was willing to retire from the race and leave it open to some others who were desirous of going to the conven- ton.
 MT. Ormond has positively decided not to make the race," said Mr. Per- sons, who was at the Tutwiler last night. "He takes the position that the office of delegate to the national con- vention is an honorary one and should be held by those who are not holding office regularly, should there be any of them who desire to go"
 MT. Persons statedl that he did not know who would offer for the places from the Sixth district but 1t is gen. erally understood that Edgar Clarkson or Fleetwood Rice will be candidates. The Sixth district has candidate for elector, Lester J. Snow, of Tuscaloosa, one of the best known attorneys of west Alabama, having announced for that place. MT. Snow has no opposi- tion and it is not anticipated that any will develop.

THE RED CIRCLE

At the Odeon Two today another episode of the Red Circle" a Pathe- Balboa serial now running in The AgeHerald, will be shown. "The Red Circle" a brthmark peculiar to the criminal Borden family, and thought to be extinct, is seen by Max Lamar. old Borden's nemisis, on the hand of woman in a swiftly mov- ing automobile Grant, a notorious loan shark, reports the loss of batch of notes and his automobile As he speaks, the missing auto is seen passing-the same one that La mar is interested in. Overtaking the car, which has come to a stop, they find the woman gone In the mean time the woman, June Travis, inter- ested in social reforms, and we'll known to Lamar, has turned her coat inside out, and walks up to remind him of his promise to call at her home. Anonymous letters inform Grants clientele of the destruction of the notes. Mary, June's old nurse and companion, finds half of a burned note and confronts her with it. Mary for the first time sees the Circle on Junes hand. She tells her that she is the daughter of Circle" Jim Borden.
 The next day, in Lamar's presence, the butler blunders in with the burned note June offers to show Lamar where she found it. In order to di- vert suspicion, Mary dons Junes black coat and veil. In the street Lamar sees her-pursues-and corners her in garage. She escapes through rear door, Lamar again in pursuit Unable to catch her, Lamar returns and confesses to June that he sus- pected her of the theft. The black coat having caught in the door, Mary leaves it behind During Lamar's absence, June tears the label from the coat In mans apparel she goes to the police station and poses as a dumb tailor sent by Lamar to iden- tlfy the coat. Accompanied by an officer, she takes the coat away-but soon loses the officer by a clever ruse Entering her home by the window to avoid her mother and Mary, she is seen by the butler. The police officer reports that the young man had red circle on his right hand.
