CAFES VARY ON
 PRICES THEY ASK
Depends on Many Things Proprietors Say-Varia-
 tion Now Very Wide

Further comparisons made yesterday between the prices charged for articles of food by the different cafes and res taurants show wide variance. Prices for common order like ham and eggs range from 35 cents to 60 cents. For terhouse steaks range from 75 cents to i. Other orders shows the like differences.
 Restaurants and cafes should be graded~if if a comparison is to be made of the prices, in the opinion Of W. k. venable of the Hillman hotel cafe. The price is osly one of the things to Dc considered, according to Mir. Venaole. The service, cleanliness and surround- ings must be taken into consideration. He also stated that the quality of food served largely determines the price. The prices of a first-class restaurant should not be compared with some plain board lunch counter said MT. Venabie.
 Arthur Greenwood, proprietor of the Greenwood cafes, is of the opinion that a managers ability as buyer deter mines in a large manner the prices to be charged. MT. Pantaze of the Pantaze cafe said that the service and quality or the food should be big factor in favor of a cafe.
 Prices in Birmingham furnish striK- Ing contrast to the prices charged by cafeteria in Toledo, Ohio. Some of the prices charged for generous portions are; Soup 5 cents. meats 12 to 14 cents. vege- tables cents, salads cents, desserts ito cents. beverages cents. bread and
 butter 8 cents. The monthly report ol this cafeteria shows reasonable ne' profit.
 Hooper's cafe has the following pricei quoted on tho menu: Small porterhouss steak with potatoes $115. ham or bacor and eggs 60 cents. ham and egg sand wich 20 cents, sliced tomatoes 20 cents French fried potatoes 20 cents. half can taloupe Is cents pie 15 cents and 20 cents per cut, coffee cents. tea 10 cents

has written his denunciation of Birming ham as a place where white liquor, cor ner mashers and scarlet women abound, must have had his eyes open to these
 three evils and shut to the many clean and uplifting things he might have seen" said Major w. NJ. Matthews, director of the land and immigration bureau of the Southern Commercial Congress"
 T have bean in Birmingham several weeks and did not come stranger, hav-
 ing formely been employed here. I have not seen any corn liquor. I have not been offered any I have not noticed on the
 streets any women whose manner ad-
 vertised them as of the scarlet variety.
 have seen 90 more young men loung-
 ing around soda water establishments
 than customarily do that in all cities. "I have been in a position to have observed all these things had they been rampant. The Chicago gentleman should go about his own city and take note of what he sees before coming down
 here to find specks in other communi- ties. Birmingham, for general good be- havior of it's citizens in public and for sobriety, compares favorabiy with any place I know of and more than favorably with some no doubt Mir. O'Conner knows Of"
 C. w. ROGERS
 Tt strikes me as mighty poor taste on | the part of James Owen O'Conner, of ! Chicago, to lan1bast this city as one | filled with bootleggers, mashers and loose wonen,' said c. w. Rogers, secretary of the Mississippi Warrior transportation management He appears to have been on a special lookout for these eveils, or | he would not have seen so much of them. I I have been here six weeks and, being a young man, have plenty of time on my hands in the evenings to note what is going on. I have not come across any white liquor or any other kind since 1 I have been in Birmingham. No one has offered to give me any sell me any 1 have no doubt it can be gotten by those who look for. it. but it is not thrust on l one I have not encountered orr-coIor
 women. 1 have seen some young fellows standing on street corners and they dc {, talk about girls. as all boys do, but have failed to see any passing girl in-
 suited by them.
 " will wager that size and everything else considered. there is more of the stuff this man complains of in Chicago than | in Birmingham. Strong liquor, is cer- tainly easier to get in Chicago. So are other things.

DISTRICT BENEFITS
 ! FROM THE STATION
Dr. Smith Greatly Pleased at Getting Experiment.
 Work at University

Alabama and particularly the Bir- mingham district will be materially benefited by the federal experiment station which was recently authorized
 to be located at the University of Alabama.
 Dr. Eugene A. Smith. state geolo- gist. says a portion of the engineering building at the university has been converted into a laboratory for the station.
 The work of the station will be to make researches and experiments ir non-metals. Some of the important metals of which Alabama has a large share are graphite. cement ma
 terials. bauxite phosphates. clays and feldspars.
 The results of the researches mad.
 by the laboratory will be made pub lie from time to time. As a result large industrial concerns of this distric
 dealing in non-metallic substances
 will have full advantage of immediat, analysis and improvements made il
 chemical methods.
 Dr. Smith gave much credit to Sen ator Underwood for his efforts il bringing the station to Alabama. Tn,
 universities of Tennessee and Georgi; fought hard for the station. States il in this district which the station vii serve are North Carolina South Caro- lima. Georgia. Florida. Alabama. Miss issippi and Tennessee.
 A feature pointed out by Dr. Smitl is that the experiment stations in eaci section of the United States cooperate For example, manufacturer in thii district wishing a special examination of some other article than a non-meta can send the example to the univers 1 ity The station there in turn will for ward the sample on to the prope laboratory for examination, and report
