Strike Situation Little
 Changed From Yesterday

1H HE steel strike situation in the
 H hotbed of the turmoil-the Pittsburg district--is little changed.
 Here in the Birmingham district small interest is manifested in the labor contention. Comparatively few workmen have "gone out" and the plants are running as usual. This IS as might have been expected. The men employed by the Tennessee com pany and the American Steel and Wire company have always been we'll treated, and there is nothing to strike about.
 In and around Pittsburg there is more or less disorder, but even there rioting has not been as prevalent as had been expected.
 The steel strike was staged for a great affair. But public sympathy IS lacking and the end is not far to see.
 The strike comes at an inopportune time for labor. Had wages been How, had living conditions been more distressing than they are, and had the men at the plants been i'll treated, there might have been some justification for a general uprising. But nothing of the sort has been in evidence. Wages are Ihigh, the corporations have made il a point to promote welfare work anc living conditions were never as gooc as they are today.
 The only way that the steel workers |could expect to gain much headway lin their strike for recognition of tht lunion-and that is all it amounts to- was for all the trade unions to bt drawn into the contention on thu principle of brotherhood sympathy But even then the steel workers coult not hope to win in the long run. There have been strikes when tn public was largely with the strikers . But not now.

Good Training for Boys.

''I am greatly pleased with the word which comes to me of my two boys standing at Auburn" said Richard F. Johnston. Richard Malcolm, the elder, named after his grandfather is ranking captain, and Eugene. the younger, is lieutenant. I am glad they both are interested in military training for think it's a fine thing for boys. both in the way of discipline and in health It somehow seems to put backbone in the average chap and makes him carry himself as if he expected to be some body It is source of great satisfac- tion to have two sons in such fine in stitution."

 a prima donna, for there was long wait before she was even a seconda donna, and it was while still an under study that she got her chance to de- clare dividends on years of patient work done almost in obscurity. To use her own words: T had been cast for roles without number, alto or soprano made no difference, had been compelled to submit to every humiliation; it had been shouted into my ears that I vas not a singer, that had missed my voca- tion, that I was a comedienne and not singer, and could meet with success only as such" It will be recalled that | while in Dresden singing at an inn portant church service, she broke down in the midst of her alto. whereat the conductor struck her and called her a goose.
 ! Did it dampen her ardor or make her i give up her career as a singer. Not as ! any one could notice. But 1t did make | her realize that she had neglected her musical education, so she promptly ar ranged for a thorough musical course in technical training with Franz Null | Ter Long after this when sine mad left dresden for Hamburg swapping Dlrcc- tor Platen for Director Pollini, she had l been forced to sing eighteen, twenty twenty eight, and several times thirty two times in one month. She says "l had sung in chorus; in short l had run the gamut of duty known to the opera stage" After six years she go' to sing Carmen.

 an engagement at $900 year to sing
 in Royal Opera, after recovering from his astonishment when she threw her arms about him and clung to his neck in gratitude, said Out aren't you a mere slip of . girl to go on the opera tic stage?"

ALMA JAMESON
BROWNS IN SOUALL

Vaudeville, La, Aug. 19.-Miss
Alma Jamison, 16-year-Old daughter
of Thomas Jamison of New Orleans,
was drowned here this afternoon.
The body was recovered after being
in the water over two hours and all
efforts at resuscitation failed.
Miss Jamison and three other
young ladies were bathing in front
of the Delchac Hotel. The water had
been very low for some time, but,
because of a squat, the waves rose
twenty inches in twenty minutes and
on the return to the beach Miss Jami-
son was swept beneath the waves.
The rescue efforts of her compan-
ions failed and their lives were en-
dangered. They were brought ashore
by Albert Delchac and Frank Russell,
who, however, were unable to find
Miss Jamison's body.
Roy and Emile Dial after search
of an hour and a half, found the
body and Drs. Borah, Paine and Van
Zandt spent an hour in an unsuccess-
full effort to restore life.
The body will be taken to New
Orleans, where the funeral will occur
Wednesday.
Thomas Jamison, the fathn~ ~
Miss Jamison, is employed by John T
Fender of New Orleans. The unfor
tunate bather had spent nearly al
summer at this place.
