Jones, the man of facts about bulls. Everywhere the people were greatly interested and expressed the idea that Birmingham deserves great credit for undertaking this move ment so unselfishly for the rest of the state. We saw one fine herd of Shorthorn cattle at Headland, and the owners. Oates and Sullivan. were very much interested MT. Oates said he would come to Birmingham and buy some bulls to add to his herd"
 Mir. Barnett and MT. Jones left last night for other points in the state to present the sale in it's proper light pe- fore the people.
 The publicity committee of the Red Cross bull committee has mailed ad- vertising matter to newspapers in Ar kansas. Tennessee. Georgia and other states whose editors have offered their columnS free for the purpose of ad- vertising the sale.

PED|GREED BULLS ATTRACT ATTENTION ON STREETS OF CITY. Many Newspaper Notices From Distant States on Sale Reach Committee PRESIDENT WILSON
 FORWARDS CHECK Proclamation Issued by President Barrett of City Commission in
 Reference to Patriotic
 Sale of Bulls
By W. G. ROLES

No three-ringed circus in the hey-day of John Robinson, the Ringlings, Sells Brothers or Barnum & Bailey could have attracted greater crowd or created more enthusiasm than was exhibited on Twentieth street yesterday afternoon when more than 50 bulls of high pedigree ambled into that thoroughfare and put themselves on exhibition It was new sight presented on a busy street of a hustling industrial town where cattle are little known and where mems thoughts are of other things
 But change has come over the people of the Magic City. Instead of the fa- miliar tons of coal, pig iron and the man. ufactured products thereof they gazed on the bulky forms of slowly moving, animate things that first amused, then interested and finally won their admira- tion. These daily exhibitions of the bulls will do more to prod up the interest of Birmingham people in the sale than any thing else that the committee could have devised. What they see they believe, and they have seen the bulls and know they are living things of beauty and worth

Union Springs, E,ufaula, Abbeville, Headland, Dothan. Hartford, Geneva, Elba, Enter prise, Troy Brundidge and Ozark, and that everywhere they went only short talk was necessary to arouse en- thusiasm over the Red Cross bull sale.
 .'Why are you people in Birmingham, a manufacturing and mining town, staging a bun sale?" they asked us, said Mir Barnett in making, his re- port "You don't know anything about bulls, especially the kind of bulls you are proposing to sell"
 But when MT. Barnett and MT. Jones got through talking there were no more doubting Thomases They all were convinced that Birmingham was pulling off something big, something that would redound to the interest of the farmer, the cattleman, the banker and the merchant, and they got busy and organized clubs. seven of them in three days, and they will come to Bir- mingham to get in on the good thing. They said if Birmingham thinks bulls are good things to have around the place then bulls are the proper thing to have on the farms and in She pas <tllres

The Island Of Elba, celebrated az
the place where Napoleon was i'm
prisoned In 1874, has since Italy's en-
trance into this war attracted much
attention as the location of valuable
iron mines, writes.a correspondent.
In view Of the scarcity Of iron mines
In Italy and the difficulty of transport
ing ore or pigs from the United States
for use in the munition factories the
mines Of Elba have given q new i'm
portance to the island. Travellers on
the Genoa-Rome Express. which skirts
the seashore Of the mainland, permit
ting q view on q clear day of the blue
island rising out of the water six miles
distant, think rather Of the tall foun-
dry stacks In the foreground at Piom-
bino than Of the great soldier of other
wars.
In the days before the war this ex-
press stopped at Campiglia to put of
tourists for Piombino and Elba. To
day 1t stops to put OF business men,
skilled iron workers, Italian soldiers
and their Austrian prisoners interned
on the island. The side track at Cam
piglia has been enlarged since the war,
too, for the purpose of handling the
large quantity Of iron freight brought
over from Elba. Napoleon's name has
almost been forgotten on the island, so
busy, are the Inhabitants with war
work. "How can get to the villa San
