ALSTON TURNED DOWN
 FOR LACK OF WEIGHT
Prominent Young Attorney Finally Denied Admission to the
 Training Camp

A. H. Alston Jr., a prominent young attorney of Birmingham, received notice yesterday from the war department that his application for admission to the of- ficers' reserve crops training camp at Fort McPherson. had been finally turned down. In an effort to stand the physical examination in the matter of weight, MT. Aston went to Fort McPherson and took a special examination some days ago. He was ruled out on account of being under wight, but he was given another trial
 After the second examination, when he was found to be under the minimum for a man of his height, officers and friends recommended the war department that an exception be made and that the weight be waived in his case until the close of the camp, when it was thought he might have gained enough to come within the limit. However, the notice yesterday closed the last avenue of hope and admission to the training school has been finally denied him. MT. Alston who was extremely anxious to enter the service, was bitterly disappointed.
 He is the son of Judge A. H. Aston supernumerary judge of Alabama and brother of Robert c. Aston of Atlanta, one of the leading attorneys of the Geor- cia city.

ADJUSTMENTS
At The Lyric

The California Boys band is a unique attraction at the Lyric theatre for the first half of this week. The organiza- tion is a large one and is composed of manly young fellows who are not only f1rst-class musicians, but athletes as well. They play marches with the dash and verve of Sousa's men and there is, in fact, an imitation of the famous band master The boys execute striking drill as they play series of marches and quite an extraordinary feature for mli- tary band is their athletic performance A cornet and a vocal solo lend variety to their programme.
 The band is part of the Columbia Park Boys club of San Francisco It gives a fine illustration of what may be accom- plished by youngsters in their leisure mo- ments when they are given the proper training. Maj. Sidney s. Peikotto found- ed the organization. which he is now managing on tour.
 MT and Mrs. Jimmy Barry are too well known to- require extended notice Their sketch, .'The Rube," is justly one or the most popular offerings in vaude- Vile, and MT. Barry's quaint chara cteriza- ton of a countryman come to town is really classic of it's kind. He and his jolly wife present The Rube" with rare success, to the intense amusement of the audience
 Venita Gould won much applause by her carefully studied limitations of stage celebrities, including, of course Mir Co., han, Bert Williams and his poker game, Julian Eltinge, Nazimova in War Brides and several others. MISS Gould is talented mimic and adapts her voice well to the persons she initiates.
 The Mystic Hanson trio proved disap- pointing An earnest attempt was made to present something new in the way of sleight-of-hand performance, but the singing and dancing specialties were not of sufficient merit to make them worth while.

By HOLLAND

New York May 7.-(Special) l)-Were James J. Hill alive he would be able to say that a prediction and monition which he made in an address some eight or nine years ago are now justified, al- though for an entirely different reason from that which was the basis of MT. HilPs address. He asserted that the American farmers should be able, in the year he spoke, to harvest 100000 0OU bushels of wheat. He believed that this could be done by intensive and highly scientific farming. When he made this estimate much of the wheat land in Mon tana and some in other parts of the northwest had not been put under culti- vation.
 MT. Hill also urged the farmers to en- gage more actively in stock raising, be- lieving that an ample supply of meat should supplement az ample supply of wheat. He also thought it possible for the Farmers of the United States to har su st as many. as 40OO, coo 600 bushels of aeorn, much of which could be converted into meat but no small part of it util- ized as food. Twenty-Five years before
 
 J. Tilden, shortly after ihis return from Europe, delivered an address in which he urged American farmers. greatly to in- crease their corn harvest, and was espe- cially emphatic in saying that we should send those who were accustomed to make food articles out of corn meal to Europe, so that the people of the European coun- tries might be taught the nutritious as well as the palatable quality that is in corn meal properly prepared for the table. MT. Hill made his statement because he was satisfied that within 25 or 30 years the population of the United States would have increased so rapidly that, unless there were much greater har- vests, our people would not only consume all of the food raised, but would also

 The decision to strike was reached at-aNmeeting of the local Sunday aft ernoon, when it was agreed thati9in case the demands served on the pro- prietors Friday were not accededFdto by 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon sthe strike order would become effective in all union shops simultaneously.
 The boss barbers announced late last night, following meeting to con- slider the proposition. that they stood they could not accede to the demands of the union.
 The proposal to increase the prices we now charge customers for theis work is out of the question at this time,' said s. J. Erckert, proprietor Of Erckerts shop last night. Most .ot the work done in a barber shop wieL the exception of a haircut, is in tho nature of luxury With present con ditions if we attempt to raise the price on luxuries the people will simply quit patronizing the shop and both the proprietors and the barbers will ne worse off than they are now.
 Our materials have advanced .o such an extent that we cannot see oar way clear to add one cent to our ex- penses unless we should arbitrate the case and lose. The proprietors have in some cases a good many thousand dollars invested. while the barber has none.

At Loew's Biiou

The all-star bill al Loews Bijou for the first half of the week presents a variety of entertainment that will please the most exacting. Music and song, drama and comedy are successfully intermingled and drew well merited applause from the crowded house at the opening perform ance yesterday
 Villa Holt Wakefield, the topliner, all ways a favorite with the Birmingham au- diences proved as charming and ire sistible as ever and was given a big re- ception. The headline honors, however were shared with the splendid offering of Miss Edna Earle Andrews, The Saint and the Sinner," in which she was ably assisted by Miss Garia Mrazlajk. This is without doubt the classiest dramatic sketch on the vaudeville stage today.
 Every act on the bill is thoroughly en- joyable. Claire and Atwood in an aero batic speciality open the bill and furnish plenty of fun with their knockabout com edy. They work fast and an absence of 'stallng'' adds to the pleasure of the act.
 Hazel Brown and Charles Barrow put over a neat bit of comedy work in their skit, Back Home" introducing musical and dancing specialtes. The couple work well and were highly pleasing
  dealing with the eternal triangle, two women and a man, is splendid vehicle for the talented Edna Andrews. It is the tale of a wife who did not love and a woman who loved too well, the same man. It is theme that easily might be sordd, but the cleverness of the lines and the portrayal of the two women by Miss Andrews and Miss Mrazlajk elevate it to a high plane and it becomes really beautiful story.
 Lex Neal Willie Segal and Ruth Frank lin, very clever trio, sang and danced and distributed some real comedy throughout an act that pleased inn mensely
 Miss Wakefield had the closing spot and tribute to her ability was the fact that she was successful in detaining the usual walkouts. She won the hearts of the audience with her charm and voice and jestures and intermingled some new songs with the old favorites that have endeared her to thousands of admirers all over the country.
 The feature photoplay, Little Miss No- body" with Violet Meserau. is excellent.
