SEAT SALE MARY
 GARDEN CONCERT
Spectacular Prima Donna to Appear In Concert at the
 Jefferson Theatre

Next Friday morning, December ,, a1 o'clock. the box office at the Jeffer- son theatre will be open for the seat sale of the Mary Garden concert and from all indications a capacity house will greet the spectacular prina donna when she makes her first bow to Bir- ,mingham.
 The "An-Star Concerts" CMrs. Rich ard F. Johnston and Mrs. Orline A. Shipman) announce that the pro- gramme which Miss Garden will give on December 6, has been chosen with great care and that the noted prima donna whom James Gibbons Huneker, critic composer and author. declares to be the greatest singing actress" In the world today will have an oppor- tunity to show her wonderful histri- onic power In the big aria from "Gis- monde" (H. Ferrier) and the magnlfiv cent aria from Louise SCarpenuerl her interpretation of which made her famous overnight when .Impressario Oscar Haxnmerstein presented her Tn the opera at the Manhattan ten years ago in New York.
 Speaking of her superb success in the rendition of the Louise" ara Tn her Atlanta concert, Louise Dooiy, the we'll known critic of the Atlanta Con stitution, said:
 "No more telling tribute could be paid the art and the personality or Mary Garden than the hold she main tained last night on her audience at the auditorium, when the house was so cold that the singer had to cover A wonderful gown with a fur coat all most as wonderful, and her hearers had nothing but Miss Gardens mimi table temperatment to keep them rom freezing. .
 Jt was worth risking a cold to walt for her magnificent performance or the great aria from Charpentier s Louise" which closed her programme, Although lacking background or or chestra, this was & powerful renoitioh of an operatic air as the Metropontarl Opera company has presented In Al lanta with the adjuncts of the operatic stage.
 She has the true understanding of passion in music--the intensest fervor of feeling refined by the art through which 1t speaks. She seemed almost to push her tones to reach the ultimate of feeling, and her whole spirit Iorm radiated the same ardor. Yet there was no suggestion that she overdid the part. . ,
 There was no surprise that she should reach the height of her erfec- tiyeneas in the Carpentier aria, since if is of the style in which she has at tained her greatest triumphs, but Tn comparison with her only other ap- pearance here, when she sang before an audience of disconcertingiy small size which afforded no inspiration, the impressiveness of this performance was a revelation
 Another lovely number on Mary Gar den's programme here will be se- lection from voice accompanied by the cello. which will be played by Miss Gardens assisting artist, MT. Gutia Casini. the young Russian whom Fran IaForge, the well known accompan ist. composer, discoverer and whc toured with Madame Marcella sem brich and Madame Frances Aida In con cert
 Isaac Van Grove will be at the piano and the Mary Garden concert promises to be a brilliant musical event--one long to be remembered in Birmingham

. CONDITION OF TRADE.

NEW YORK. June 2s.--The weekly
trade reports indicate that no change
has occurred in the general situation.
There has been further development in
the downward trend of prices, both
Wholesale and retail. In commenting on
the situation. Dun's Review says, in
part:
That fundamentaLeconom changes
are in progress. differing at bottom
from those which have been witnessed
on previous occasions since the wars
ending. is not only demonstrated by
movements in some leading trades
and industries, but also by the re-
versal of sentiment among both
sellers and buyers. and by statistics
of bank cfearings and failures" '-f
rBEadstreet's says:
Despite some rather isolated re-
ports of improvement in buying. and
slight, but nevertheless noticeable
gain in tone in some lines Of trade
the trend of trade and industry gen.
orally IS. toward the quiet. indeed. the
dull side. For this tendency poor car
service, conservatism. tight :, money
and political and crop UNCERTAINTIES
are all cited as causes. and . there
seems Iittle expectation Of any uplif,
until the .sumnaeAis-Well.ad advanced
