Interviewing Will
 Soon Be Done by
 Means of Wireless
Associated Press


 New York, March 5.--A half dozen newspapermen tonight demonstrated that lodging the curious reporter by the simple expedient of sailing away on the briny deep has ceased to be quite so simple.
 They wished to talk to persons aboard the United States shipping board liner America, but did not care to walt for >hc vessel to span the 370 miles of ocecn that separated her from New York. So they hurried to telephone exchange, tossed coins into as many slots, took down six receivers, said. "Give me the Amer ica'' and waited. In due time some one said, Here's your party" and the interview was on.
 The reporters learned that the America expected to dock at s D. m. tomorrow; that the weather had been "heavy with strong seas which de- layed us," and that there were 663 passengers aboard. including 200 Americans. who had been soldering for the King of Spain in the war in Morocco, broke and out of smokes.'
 Just like talking to Harlem or the Bronx" the reporters agreed, when the interview was concluded. In talking to the ship, their voices were transmitted by wires to the Deal Beach transmitting station and thence by wireless. The incoming messages were wirelessed from the vessel to the receiving station at FL born and transmitted to the New York exchange by wire.
 The demonstration was in the na- ture of test of new long distance telephone equipment installed on the l America, with the consent of the shipping board. At it's conclusion, it was predicted that wireless phones soon would be in general use on ocean HnerR

 IN EXHIBIT CONTEST

Mrs. c. Webb Jaynes, Apartment E-1, San Jose apartments, was award ed a cash prize of $15 yesterday for having written the poem describing Birmingham made products. The contest was staged by the Birming- ham League of Women Voters in con nection with the Housewives exhibi- tion, which was held at the Jaco bs furniture store for four days last week.
 Mrs. Jayne's poem was written in prose style andjs as follows:
 Birmingham Products
 Doesn't 1t make you proud to know that we can be clothed from head to toe with things that are made right here in our town7 Many are worthy of world renown And everything, nearly, that's good to eat is made right here, on some Birming- ham street
 Now, a very fine drink Is Batter tons coffee, while Heber's and Beck's make candy and toffee There's er-Northington's Isis Cold Cream, Moseley's Peanut Crisr is surely a scream. Mrs. Holman's breads are certainly fine, while Buff falo Rock sparkles like wine. Wood Crabbe grain folks look out for the chickens, while the 'Kill-Pest' peo- pie give vermin the dickens
 "Holsum Bread Is as good as you'll find, while 'Triple-X' Butter should be underlined. Of Eagle Macaroni lot one can eat. Their spaghetti and noodles are hard to beat Now if you would have a refreshing rest the Birmin gham Steel Products will suit you best. They will make a nice bedstead, strong and fine, with the Perfection Mattress coming next in line
 Now, Liberty Brand and Four Hundred and One, are the best Over alls for father and son. And if your old auto is lacking in pep, just fill up with woco and watch her step. Oh. yes, and the Birmingham Flour Mills use 'So-Lite' Baking Powder to make the frills. The gas, street cars and lights to see, are run by the big B. R.. L. X P.
 "McGough's Better Bread seems to me is just dandy. Did you try a stick of their wonderful candy? That 'Brer Rabbit Syrup just makes your mouth water. If you've never tried it, I'll say that you orter. We like Jazz Music. the chicks Jazz Feed. The Cosby products are winners. in- deed.
 "Ensley Woodworking company make fine cedar chests. Of course, we all know that moths are great pests. There's Red Diamond Coffee, there's Jim Dandy Meal, with Vulcan Brand relish, all make an appeal. If you eat a Frost Bite and Jersey Ice Cream then you are in heaven, if surely will seem
 "The Manchester Chambrays. the best in the land, quite equal are they to the Avondale Baud. Miss Weath- erly makes such fine baby clothes. Miss O'Brien's beaded bags, most every one knows. Morning Star coffee should win a fine prize. Miss Andrews makes aprons in most any size. If that wonderful girl should just say 'oui -oui" (we-we), rush right down to Roberts. their engraving to see.
 "For bacon that's brown and crisp hubby begs. Why not buy for him 'Carnaticn' or Legg's.' There's fine Marco Biscuits from Highlands Gas, Range. Just try Garland Spices, you never will change.
 compared with these products others seem but a sham. Why not spend you coin in our own Birming- bam?"

 The woman and children disappear ed and police headquarters were mo- tified.

BESSEMER GRAND
 JURY'S REPORT
Petit JurieS Scored for Alleged Failure to CO-0perate
 With Officials

The report of tho grand jury which was in session in Bessemer this week was as follows: We, the grand jury, have docketed f50 cases we have found l01 true bills; q no blsi 2I cases and we have examined the jail and found the same in extraol diuary. clean condition, and the conVaHienCes had therein are commenddhle to those in charge.
 We desire to commend the Sher- ifs office for its efficient and dili- gent service in the enforcement of the law, and the apprehension of crimi- nals Our attention has been called to the lswlessness heretofore existing in aud around Lock 17 of this county; some matters have been investigated by us which is revolting to all sense of common deccncy.
 Tt seems that this community has bean heretofore controlled and ter. rorixed by the bootlegEer, wildcattef and arson fiends; burning school houses, churches, and homes, and committing murder. We have indict- ed In these cases, as the evidence to us In support of those indictments has been positive, and we are unable to understand why these defendants should not be punished for the of lenses charged.
 We feel that this state of affairs k almost entirely due to the fact that the petit iures will not cooperate with our officials in the enforcement of the law, and thereby creating a feeling among the criminal class that they are al liberty to commit these horrible crimes.
 We desire to express our conf denee and gratitude in and to our able solicitor. and we do commend him to the pubic for his honest, fear less and faithful service, and he de serves and should have the co-opera- ton of every citizen who desires to see the law honestly enforced.
 we also desire to express our con fidence and apprecia ton in and for the sheriff's office in this end of the county. It is our jud gment that the sa mo tS in charge of an honest, fear less and competent man, and our lsbora and investigations have been successful to great measure by rea- son of his honest efforts and efficien- cy.
 'It has come to our attention that the deputy sheriffs of this county have not received their salaries for the past two months. We are inform cd that this failure is due to the failure of the law to make such pro vision. Ii is our judgment that this 1. Stato oh Aiidtts tS ueplofaDlei ana the matter should be corrected so that in the future these officers should re- ceiye their compensation promptly.
 With few exceptions 1t IS our opinion that the law enforcement in our Jurisdiction has been very sue cesSsul. It is our opinion that with a more honest cooperation of the citi- zens that better results will be ob- tained
 We feel that we have been diligent in the performance of our duties. We desire to thank and express our ap- preciation for the cheerful and un- firing assistance rendered us by all of the officials and we ask that your honor discharge us from fur ther duty"

wINDMTLL sToREs ELECrRICIry


 Although there have been many attempts made to harness the wind to generate electric power yet work along this line is still in the experimental stage so far as actual farm installations are concerned. Thus considerable interest is attach ed to the announcement made by a windmill manufacturer that he has at last succeeded in constructing d model that he belives, will meet all the requirements in this special line.
 The Combined windmill, generator and storage battery outfit is de- scribed and illustrated in the Popular Mechanics Magazine. On the main casting at the top of the tower is mounted a 1-kw. generator. It is geared directly to the shaft of a left. steel windmill. The spur gears are | carried on roller bearings, the entire reduction gearing running in an oil oath. The generator gives a constant voltage over a speed variation rang ing from 750 to 2,500 rpm. The storage battery has a capacity of 2su ampere-hours and will store enough electricity to operate the lights on an average farm for II successive days without wind. This is & condition of weather seldom, if ever, encountered.
