cation on the Coosa river from

ing objections, if any, to the pro

Power company of Birmingham. to
erect large power plant and dam
at Lock Two on the Coosa is to be
held in Birmingham the latter part

The company made application
to the federal power commission in
Washington to erect the plant, and
that body has published notice in
Alabama that a hearing of obiec-
tions will be held. Tho dam plan
ned to be erected will raise the river
level aat Gadsden six feet and will

If the river is opened below Gads

Rome and will open local markets to
the world through Mobile and New

HOFMANN CHARMS AUDIENCE
Famous Pianist Appears, In City For First
 Time

A bit of Birmngham's musical his tory was written last night when Josef Hofmann, king of the pianOforte, ap- peared in concert here for the first time, coming under auspices of the Birming- ham Music Study club. Phillips audi torium was completely filled with bril- liant assemblage to hear this superb artist, and the audience sat fascinated, in rapt attention to his remarkable per formance.
 Hofmann is pianist to whose won derful hands nothing seems impossible. Though using modern interpretations, he brought out the lit If melody, the haunting rhythm and delicate inter weaving of themes in his renditions, in a manner that charmed even the most unmusical of his hearers.
 The program opened with the Bach prelude and Fugue in D Major, as ar ed by Schumann's "Kreisleriana," which called forth enthusiastic applause.
 It is we'll known that Hofmann is one of the greatest Chopin interpreters of all time, and his Chopin group last night showed that wonderful purity of line, clear style and exquisite phrasing that elicits rapturous applause from the audience. He played the Ballade in A Flat; :; Nocturne in F Flat, Op. 5, No. ?; the Nalse in A Flat, Op. GA, No. 3; and the Scherzo in NJ Minor. In all of these there was warmth, loveliness, and depth of tone that charmed and delighted.
 The last group contained some attrac- tive new material, a rarely heard D. Minor prelude of Rachmaninoff; Go- dowsky's fascinating transcription of the Albeniz Tango. which created a
