H. Mondays mail was received sub scription of S250 from Capt. Frank lin A. Hart of the Fifth regiment of the |. s. Marines. who Is now stationed at Pontico, Va. This regi- ment will be remembered as a part of the Second division in the late war, which won special distinction in various engagements at the front.
 Showing Up Well.
 Another surprising feature of the campaign Is that some of the smaller cities are doing even better than Birmingham, in proportion to their size and importance. Montgomery had passed the s30.00O mark Monday afternoon, while Anniston had raised more than s10.000 and is still going, and reports of Gadsdeu and other cities indicate that they are certain to reach their quota before the end of this week
 In the counties where floods and ether unfavorable conditions have re- tarded the beginning of the active canvass, preparations are now being made to start canvass in real earn est on next Monday, and to continue the work to a successful conclu- sion
 General Chairman DeBardeleben Monday night reiterated his confi- dence that the campaign would be a success and that the s1,000,000 fund would be raised, but also declared that in order to accomplish this end, it will be necessary for every alum nus and every friend of Auburn to now put his shoulders to the wheel nd do his part.

ANOTHER IS SAVED
 BYF|RST AID WORK
Striking Demonstration Given of Value of Artificial
 Respiration

The effectiveness of the method of artificial respiration as taught miners by the first aid teams of the southern station of the United States bureau of mines. located here. was brought to light yesterday when a report was filed in the office here by officials of the Sayreton mine of the Republic Iron and Steel company in regard to the near r-electrocution of a negro last Saturday at that mine. According to statements made by officials of the mine an aged negro miner, s. w. Powers, came in con- tact with an electric current in the mines last Saturday morning and was arrived A negro first aid man, Iziah Newell, had the negro's body removed to a tunnel in the mine and with the aid of George W. Ferguson. mine superintendent, and John Waine, assistant mine superintendent, com menced the artificial respiratory movements as taught by the first aid teams of the local government mining station.
 The mine physician, Dr. J. C. Nor ton. was immediately notified, and shortly arrived upon the scene. He found the heart practically stopped and apparently there was no pulse move nent.
 After an hours strenuous work on the part of the first aid men the ne- gro showed signs of regaining con sciousness and later was carried to the surface. He was placed in hos- pital and is now reported completely out of danger.
 In discussing the incident, J. J. Forbes, mining engineer, in charge of the first aid work of the station. stated that this was almost a com mon occurrence in the mines and that the artificial respiration work had within the past six months vir- tually snatched from deaths door ap- proximately 25 miners in the Bir- mingham district

Traffic Man Thinks It Would Great
 ly Relieve Congestion

An address by E. Hickey, traffic expert, featured the Monday luncheon forum of the Civic Association, held In the rooms of the association in the Hillman hotel yesterday afternoon al 12:30 o'clock.
 Frank Marolda, late bandmaster Of the 343d infantry, S7th division, and Abe Williams presented several mu- sical numbers.
 MT. Hickey urged the adoption of a motor transfer for Birmingham freight houses for the transfer of all freight in smaller quanties than car load lots. He stated that the plan had ben operated very successfully in entire country were rapidly adopting the system.
 With the development of Muscle Shoals, Birmingham will be the logi- cal distribution point in the south for goods coming from the south and southwest" said MT. Hickey. That will mean a great increase in ton mage to transfer here.s With the switching service as slow as it is at present congestion Is apt to arise very often.
 By having large motor vans trans- fer the small freight shipments, think the situation could be handled in very, good style"
 In closing Mr. Hickey urged that civic organizations indorse the plan and request that the railroads adopt it.

Since the books opened January l, s63s,915 has been collected.

Many licenses were paid Monday despite the fact delin- quency with 10 per cent began after Midnight Friday.
