EMPTY MAIL SACK
 CAUSES EXCITEMENT
 AT LOCAL POSTOFFICE

When it was announced at the local postoffice yesterday morning that mail sack had been found on Twenty seventh street between Eighth and Ninth ave- nues, excitement prevailed among off cials, as it was thought that another sack of mail had been stolen.
 Bernard Collins of S05 Twenty sixth street, north, while picking blackberrres yesterday morning, discovered the sack among the bushes and immediately told someone about it. J. Reese Murray, head ot the department of Justice, was noti- lied and he called PNtmaster R. B. Smyer C. l.. Stapleton, superintendent or malls. and James c. Puckett, superin- tendent of carriers, were detailed to in- vestigate and after checking up the mail at the local office found none missing They visited the scene and discovered that the sack which had been found was an old one which had been discarded, and from the odor attached to it, it is thought that it has been used by boot leggers"

b|G INCREASE IN THE BUILDING OF HOMES AND PROPERTY SALES.
Record Broken for Big Sales in Week-Realty Company to Build 100
 Homes at Once

The statement recently made by sev- edal of the most prominent realtors of the city, that the real estate market was tip top seems to be very forcibly borne out by the fact that possibly the largest number of big sales ever made in this city Tn one week were closed during the latter part of this past week. Four sales. aggregating s30s,5OO have been made within the past three days Besides this, number of large leases on down town business property have been closed and executed, preparatory for the new rental season, which opens up on the first of October.
 Investigation among the contractors and read estate men of the city bears out the fact that everything is being done to launch big building boom be- tween now and the opening of the renting se ason. The ever increasing demand of renters and the home building advance ment which seems to have taken hold of quite a few people in this city is par tially responsible for this rush for rental property and homes.
 OVER 100 HOMES
 The BirmiDham Realty company of this city alone have already planned the construction of over 100 homes, which must be completed before the first or October. The Bethea Real Estate & h. surance company, reports that the mar ket for investment property is steadily iEcrea sing and that the demand is far greater than the supply
 One reason it is said that the people of Birmingham have been holding back, until now, on the question of building homes, has been on account of the fact that the cost of material and labor are higher here than any other section of the country.
 1t is the common impression, hiwever. tLat, instead of decreasing, the cost of material and labor going to remain at the present standard for this reason, those who have been holding back, are going ahead with the work of construc- tion.
 CONTRACTORS BUSY
 Up to this time the contractors Of the city have been doing construction work in other communities, but, it is claimed that the demand for residences and small business property here is increas- ing rapidly, which means quite a large increase in local business for them
 When John D. Chichester, secretary Of the Birmingham Real Estate Exchange, and several other prominent real estate men of this city, return from Atlantic City, N. J., where they have gone to at tend the national convention of real es- tate boards, they will possibly bring back with them new ideas that will be of material benefit to real estate in- terests in this city.

The loca- tion of rooms seem best suited to an east or south frontage and for west front they should be reversed. There is but one main chimney and if one is desired for kitchen it can be added at small additional cost and without detriment to the plan.

TAFT fAvoRs LEAGUE
Former President Believes in
Union of Nations.
Declares Organization 10 Vital to
Peace Of World and to UpbuiId
New Powers.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Suggestions
that the United States by It's entrance
into league of nations would be shar-
ing its sovereignty as nation were
characterized as "a bugaboo which
ought not to attract the support Of
serious men," by former President
Taft in an address here before the
National Geographic society.
Establishment of league of ma
lions. he said is not only vital to the
future peace of the world but also to
the creation Of the half dozen new
governments promised in President
Wilson's IA peace terms.
I'VE do not propose" said Mr. Taft,
ito limit the freedom OF action OF q
nation In the league to enforce peace
by anything more than the rules of
international law or of decency and
moral conduct and good form. The
sovereignty Of every nation will be
established by enabling the great and
small nations equally to enjoy the ben.
Gifts OF international law without main.
tanning armed forces to secure their
rights and prevent murder and rob.
berry and drive off the footpads among
nations.
1T is to protect the sovereignty OF
the smaller nations and to relieve the
greater nations from the burdens of
their self.protections that the league
Of nations is to be formed"
