COAL MAN GAN DO
 VALIANT SERVICE
 FOR HIS COUNTRY
James l.. Davidson Tells How Important It Is to Encourage Safety
 First" Work

The meeting Saturday of the Alabama safety association" said James L. Da- Vidson, president of that body, was well attended, and much good for the cause ot safety was accomplished.
 The members had before them Presi- dent Wilson's recent proclamation, which so forcefully presented the supreme test ot American manhood, and sounded the warning tocsin to those engaged in min ing and other industrial pursuits and pointed out to them their patriotic duty
 All were impressed that this is the time when all industrial forces are real War forces in this country as well as those countries across the sea, and that the man who does well the duty to which ne IS assigned is as great hero as he who dons the uniform and faces fire and ball, Every encouragement should be given all who enlist in the great service army of industrial workers, because every one engaged in any kind of produc- tive work, especially the production of coal, is doing his part to avenge the atro- cities that have been and are being per- petrated-in Belgium and France, and by the U-boats on the seas
 .'Every one should exert every effort to thwart the work of an enemy that we
 
 by the name of 'Carelessness,' and the great work of this association in the war should be to prevent. accidents, caus- ing the rendition of first aid to the in- jured, and stop this great industrial waste, much of which is preventable. If any act or measure of precaution was omitted which would prevent the death or injury of a workman. or if a man failed to take first aid training and pre- pare himself to save the life or limb of his fellow man in case of accident, he would be a stacker in this great indus trial army.
 This war cannot be won by loud talk, wearing buttons and waving flags. We have serious work before us and it behooves not only the mem- bers of the Alabama Safety association but the operators. the mine worker and the general public to devote their full mental and manual power to see that our industrial accidents cease for the reason that. aside from it's humanitarian aspect, the more widows, and orphans, crippled and dis abled bread winners from the industrial army there are to support. the less able we will be to adequately sustain those brave fellows who return maimed and disabled from the European battlefields.
 Every member of the Alabama Safety association is determined co spread the gospel of safety, to pro- mote first aid training and to arouse interest in and increase the member ship of the association. and to assist it in furthering the great work it has before it.
 The general public can help the as- sociation greatly by giving it's hearty support and influence, and it is hoped that at the next meeting, which will be held at the city hall auditorium Saturday. June 16. at l o'clock, every one who is interested will be present with word of encouragement"

uring districts limiting the per cent levy on automobiles, motorcycles and their tires to plants paying annual profits above $5000 and per cent on the capital invested.
 House leaders said tonight they were determined to bring the bill to a final vote tomorrow night
 Victory of the cotton forces, who tri- umphed over Representative. Moore of Pennsylvania, when his proposed amend ment was stricken out on point of order, was greeted joyously by those interested in the domestic sugar industry, particu- larly Representative Fordney of Michigan and Representative Martin of Louisiana. Had the cotton proposal been held ger mane the bill would have been opened to amendment carrying tax on sugar
 The automobile tax amendment, offered by Representative Doremus of Michigan was written into the bill after futile attempt had been made to strike out the entire paragraph relating to per cent tax on automobiles, motorcycles and tires. MT. Doremus insisted that many automobile manufacturers were barely making expenses. Democratic Leader kitchin quoted statistics to show that the industry was enjoying unprece- dented prosperity
 Unsuccessful efforts were made by Va rious members to attack the Doremus amendment to other paragraphs of the section designed to provide a per cent manufacturers tax on musical instru
 ments selling for more than $lO each jewelry, yachts, pleasure boats, sporting goods, perfumes and other toilet articles certain drugs and proprietary medicine. and chewing gum. These taxes, as vel
 as one of half cent per lineal foot or unexposed motion picture films were de l seated.

WONDER FILM AT
 ALCAZAR THEATRE

The wonder film, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea-, now showing at the Alcazar, is all that it's producers have claimed for it and more. It is. without doubt, the most marvellous series of mo- tion pictures ever taken.
 The picture is based on Jule Verne's s famous story of the same name and .em- bodies the thrilling adventures of Captain Memo, the hero. in the Nautilus, the imaginative submarine created in the mind of the writer.
 Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea was filmed on the oceans bottom 50 feet beneath the surface.
 The capacity of the Alcazar has been taxed almost beyond'its limit to care for the crowds to see the picture.
 "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea- will continue at the Alcazar the remainder of the week.

a special train ready to carry the Bir- mingham department to Atlanta.
 About 9 o'clock came word from At lanta that help would be appreciated. Fire Chief Middleton, after consulting with the commissioners. loaded one pump wagon and two hose wagons on the train with Assistant Chief Aiken of the central station and 12 men, Cap tain Gossett and Captain Browning were also in the party.
 At 10 o'clock came a message can- ceiling the call as it was found that the fire was under control and the equipment was unloaded.
 The Age-Eerald was besieged with calls from every portion of the city as soon as the news spread over Birming- ham that Atlanta was suffering from the ravages of flames and it took sev- eral persons to answer the phone calls and give the callers the latest informa- tion on the fire. Many ladies called, having friends or relatives in Atlanta. The interest in Birmingham was in- tense.
 | Passengers from Atlanta on the night trains last night described the fire as intensely spectacular when they left shortly before o'clock yes terday evening.
 The entire city was covered with a pail of smoke. the electric lights and telephones were out of commission and there was the greatest confusion at tending the removal of property from the burning section. Hundreds of au- tomobiles containing household goods were running in all sections of the city and it was thought that the great est difficulty would be experienced in ever locating the property and again restoring it to it's owners.
 The Southern train had to take a very roundabout course in getting out of the city to avoid the fire area.

MANsARD's ROOF.

From Louis XIV.

BY Il tho Architect Won His Sons Life
From Louis XIV.
The great hall of the Hotel de Vile
Of Aries, designed by Mansard, is the
wonder and admiration of every one
who has seen it on account of the
groined roof. a., .........
In regard to this nefghbOring cafe
tier tells somewhat grim story. King
Louis XIV. happened to be passing
through the city just at the time Man
sard was experimenting the compile
ton of his creation. The roof was sup
ported by powerful pillar. The mon
arch admired the work and congratu-
lated the architect on his design. at
that moment the architect was passing
through great domestic tribulation. He
had son under sentence of death, so
he thought it would be good oppor-
tunity to intercede on behalf Of the
lad.
Mansard threw himself at the feet Of
the king and said: "Your majesty sees
In the center that massive column? If
you will spare the life of my son 1
will remove the unsightly pillar, and
the roof shall stand without support"
''Mansard," replied the king, IF you
accomplish that miracle will pardon
your son, but If you fail will hang
you with him."
The architect removed the pillar
without great difficulty and with the
result desired. The cafetier is a phi
losopher, and he concludes his story
with the reflection that had not Man.
sard's son been scamp the hall at
Aries would be just like any other hall.
