DIR. LOUIS E. HARVIE
 DIES IN DANVILLE
Prominent Virginia Physician Was We'll Known in Birmingham, Where
 He Frequently Visited

Dr. Louis F. Harvie died at his home in Danville, Va, yesterday afternoon at o'clock according to advices which reached Birmingham last night. Dr. liar vie was about 80 years old at the time of his death. Funeral arrangements had not been announced last night. S
 Dr. Harvie came of one of the most distinguished families of Virginia and was formerly one of the most promi- nent physicians in the state. He had served as president of the Virginia Med ical assocation and had been otherwise honored by members of his profession.
 He is survived by two sons. Ruther- ford Harvie, one of the sons, was for a number of years member of The Age Herald staff and more recently has been with Bradstreets in Birmingham. His other son, Edwin Harvie, is now in France and had his military training at Camp Mcclellan, where he was stationed for many months with the Virginia forces. pr. Harvies daughter. Mrs. J. P. Williamson, has frequently visited Birmingham and is well known here. pr. Harvie himself had paid several visits to his son and friends in Birmingham and was well known in Alabama.

 spcnsible for this. We have nothing

 COMMUNITY SING
Fine Programme Enthusias- tically Received-Conc to Begin at 5::30 Next
 Sunday

Charles Bartlett of the Camp Me- Clellan chorus school. directed the community sing in Capitol park yes terday afternoon and was enthuslas- tically received.
 In leading the songs for everybody he revealed those magnetic qualities that appeal to music lovers and hold the interest of the multitude.
 The band. conducted by Philip Memoli was in excellent form and each one of it's numbers was heartily ap- plauded.
 Cooper Lawley's tenor solo, Face to Face" was admirably rendered and proved a most enjoyable feature of the entertainment He was forced to re- spond to an encore
 Cen" George McCleery's stunt cornet solo-with MT. Memoli, hid away somewhere in the bandstand, as the real performer and Mac .as a dummy-created no little merriment. The crowd in the amphitheatre was large, but no so large as usual The excessive heat kept many away and those who attended were slow in gath ering. The concert was IS minutes in beginning.
 On and after next Sunday the sing will net begin until 5:30 o'clock.

1. We take this method to call your attention to an easily proven fact that !, this issue is being waged and promoted solely by this organization without any collision with the company os it's off, cers. To your circumscribed mind this may seem strange and unusual, but, nev- ertheiess, this labor organization has been imbued with the principle of mu- tual consideration. It is the local na- tional and international policy of the Amalgamated Association of Electric and Street Railway Employees to demand fair play square deal and living wage scale, and with a thorough confidence, as in this issue, that conditions under ing that our demands cannot be com piled with, we do not resort to hostili- ties. but honestly attempt to bring about conditions whereby our just demands can be adjusted, and this organization is ready and willing to put behind this movement all the force, energy and re- sources at it's command. The present management and ownership of the Bir- niilgham Railway, Light and Power company has been fair to organized labor This property was unionized without resistance. We have confidence in the position of the company, and an unbounded faith in the people that they will render their verdict without preju- dice, but on the merits of the issue.
 2 We do not assume the blame for the present impaired car service, but we cheerfully bear testimony and denounce as untrue anything to the contrary, that the reduced car service is due entirely to the inability of the company to pro- cure and retain labor with the present wage scale. Its operating officials have worked hard, long and intellgently to maintain the service, and would not to- day be able to render the present service were it not for the splendid co-opera- ton of it's trainmen in working regular and long hours. Surely the editor of the News is not so ignorant of the scarcity Of labor, the universally high range of wages and present conditions of living to attribute this to any other cause.
 5 Not having any knowledge of the re- laticns existing between the company and the Birmingham News, we, of course, disclaim any responsibility. or even sane tion any efforts on their part to frighten the News as mentioned in your recent editorial, but if this refers to the recent controversy over the daily haulage of the News to suburban points, we beg to ad-

features, was nothing more than an or
 dinary citizen. Here was the symbol
 and representative of power greater than
 that of any potentate on earth; mightier
 even than that of the Czar before his
 dethronement; the arbiter who has to de-
 eide the fate of millions; and indeed in
 some senses, the moral dictator of the
 world of today and the final factor in
 turning the balance of all generations to
 come to the side of right or of wrong;
 and yet there he was, no signs even of
 self-consciousness; friend just speaking
 as though he were addressing friends
 with whom he wanted to take counsel, and whose judgment he valued almost above his own.
 T was not able to hear the first few
 words of the address very clearly for l was some distance away; but soon every word came clear and soft to my ear.
 Again 1 had that overwhelming sense of the contrast between the almost awful
 significance of the occasion and the man. ner of the speaker and the style Of the speech. Everybody now knows the char acteristics of the literary style Of the President. It has the severity of Greek literature and of the finest French prose; the nearest resemblance to 1t in your presidential utterances is in those or Abraham Lincoln. One feels at once in either hearing or reading the words or the President that it produces the curi- ous, almost paradoxical effect of hav- ing at once the straightforward and pusiness-like simplicity of a great straightforward business-like people; and yet that on analysis it reaches at the l same time the perfect lucidity and sim | plicty-that exact appropriates of word l to idea which are the highest qualities of the noblest style. What could be sim ] pier, for instance, than the phrase, l Until the enemy shall be beaten and brought to a reckoning with mankind. l And yet it was no wonder there passed through the whole assembly an immed- 1 ate and electric thrill and that cheers, long, long, passionate interrupted the President. welcomed the words. I felt ] think everybody felt-that the simple phrase was like one of those words Of | thunder that resound from the Scriptures through all the generations of men. They
 were more. like the message of divinely | ordained doom than the simple words Of
 one man. You remember the words-'God l is not mocked-w whatsoever a man sow | eth, that shall he also reap Why oio l I think of these two utterances to- l gether?'

Washington, June 16.-(Special)-T. F.
 O'Connor, member of Parliament and
 famous Irish legislator, witnessed the
 last appearance of President Wilson be-
 fore Congress. He was greatly inn
 pressed with the democracy" of this
 country and it's contrast to the 'pomp
 and vanity of wicked world.''
 His impressions, expressed in the fol-
 lowing prepared statement, will be read
 with interest throughout the United
 States:
 'I was among those present in the gall
 lery of the House of Representatives
 when President Wilson made his address
 to Congress on Monday. It was very
 novel and interesting to me. In every
 thing 1 saw the difference of spirit which
 lies behind your institutions and ours.
 The occasion, I recall, which bears some
 resemblance to what I saw yesterday, in the British Parliament was their open
 ing by the late King Edward. Those
 who love show, certainly would have pre-
 ferred the British ceremony; and, of course, there was much that was inter- esting in the uniforms, the ancient eere- monies, the historic officials. I acknowl- edge that I preferred Monday, and es- pecially because I saw in it that utter simplicity, unpretentiousneSs and reality which are the fundamental qualities of the American outlook on life. Person ally I have no love for uniforms or big wigs or trailing robes; I preferred the stern simplicity Of Monday. I liked to see the judges of our supreme court appear just in ordinary garb; and even the congressman lounging in their seats in the airy garments suitable to this 1 fierce heat, all appealed to me as symp- toms of the equality of the republic. T was surprised to see two quite small children seated among the members on the floor of the House. I assume they were brought there by their father. Such a thing would be impossible in either of our parliamentary chambers; it gave a deliciously human touch. There was
 at one moment a majesty and even awe amid all the simplicity of the proceedings It was when the official announced the entrance of the vice president and the Senate of the United States Behind the simple words my inner vision saw this vast, powerful, astounding country just as De Quincey in his opium dreams wa: haunted by the form of the Roman con sul who passed from far off territories l through the streets of Rome in the tri umphal procession.
 T felt another thrill when the mo- ment approached for the entrance of the President. sAll around me I could realize the hush, the expectancy and the palpi l tations of the great audience about tt catch sight of the ruler who stood fol 1 their millions of population, for theil mighty effort and sacrifices; and who or the giganticsstage of the world tragedy o1 today, stands forth as the foremost most powerful, most inspiring on the one hand and most dreaded figure on the other. And then appeared this man witt almost superhuman powers and respon | abilities; and behold I saw just sim pie, refined. carefully but modestly dressed gentleman who, except in hi. dignity of bearing and his impressive

 The story of this magnificent achieve ment, so much vaster and simpler than the usual navy battle and with results so much more decisive, is such that the mind refuses to believe and the eyes blink. Through this accomplishment Aus tria- Hungary today Is left with but single dreadnaught against three Italian. And Austria's chance for a successful fight for supremacy in the Adriatic is gone.
 The official story of the torpedoing of the two dreadnaughts is but scantily ex- pressive 1t does not tell how, after three years of waiting, two of the Austrians remaining dreadnaughts, awed by the tor pedoing of the viribus Units, dared to tempt the open waters and under cover of darkness sought safer anchorage farther south, perhaps within the rock bound harbor of Cattaro. Whither they were bound it is futile to inquire, for they never reached an anchorage. Fifty knots south of Pola destruction overlook them The giant whales, pierced by two tiny swordfsh, went down in the cool bliiish gray channel just outside the Passo della Selve, which divides the is lands of lStria from those or Dalmatla-
 DRIVE AT DREADNAUGHTS
 Just before dawn on June 10 Captain Corvetia, or we should say Lieutenant Commander Luigi Rizzo. and Ensign Giuseppe Oonze, on two tiny torpedo boats, finished their usual nights patrol among the Dalmation Islands, and, men tally registering another disappointment, turned homeward. They had hardly gone 10 knots when they esped two vast shapes steamng southward through the darkness surrounded by 10 smaller shapes. A closer approach permitted the Italians to identify them as convoy of two dreadnaughts and 10 destroyers. The two tiny Itai1an boats crept forward close to the cordon of destroyers and then dashed at full speed straight for the two dread naughts.
 Lieutenant Rizzo passed between the second and third destroyer and drove forward until within less than 300 yards of the first dreadnaught, when he fired both torpedoes simultaneously into the great side. Two loud reports spoke
 through the night Lieutenant Rizzo saw the battleship careen to one side, and then he had to give his attention to other matters, for one of the support ing destroyers was almost upon him. The second Italian boat passed between the

Now thanks to the daring of a single com mander, Rizzo, the man who sunk the battleship Wien within Trieste harbor two of Austrias three remaining dread naughts have been erased from the high seas
