LITTLE TERRAPIN
 SUNS HIMSELF

In n window of the Tutwiler ho- tel. when steam from the basement comes out on the sidewalk, passers- by yesterday were surprised to see . little terrapin.
 From his attitude, the little nni- mnl probably mistook the steam mOistened pipe on which he rested for n damp log in some Inudhole. The artificial warmth he probably thought came from huge light bulb, which would have completed the impression by appearing to be the orb of a golden sun.
 The little animal stretched at ense, hend. feet and tnil protruding from his many-colOred shell. Many cOnjectures ns to how he had got there were made. but the question was not solved.
 Worried by n stick which wns poked at him by n small boy. the terrapin crnvled down between the pipes and wns not seen again.

Birmingham iron has recently sold into Pittsburg itself. Lots of 1000 and 500 tons are known to have been purchased.
 Philadelphia has also been buy ing Birmingham iron. Boston has been n persistent buyer of Birming- ham iron for New England dis tribution for some time.
 Sales into the heart of Pittsburg territory and Philadelphia are re- garded as especially significant. when the s6 and $6.5O freight rates are taken into cOnsidern tion.
 The "outIaw" strike and car con- gestion in the east. of which Bir- mingham hns been free, have helped create this business.
