BAND CONCERTS IN
CAPITOL PARK ARE
OVER FORTHE YEAR!
Of 48 Scheduled Only Three
Were Postponed — Mrs.
Hundley Thanks Pub
lic for Subscriptions
The park concerts for the summer sea
ion came to a, close last night and the
Jain caused a very abrupt close. Al
though the weather was aoraewh tat threat-;
t ning just before 8 o’clock, a huge crowd i
had assembled in Capitol park and
promptly at $ o'clock Mr. Memoli opened
the programme with DeLucea's march,
“Le Puglie.”
Following the march, Mrs. Oscar R.
Hundley, chairman of the park music:
committee of the Music Study club, with
sweet grace of manner, deli vexed a short
address from the bandstand, thanking all
who had co-operated to make the concerts
a success.
Number 2 on the programme was Leut
ner's popular ••Fast*’ overture, but Mr.
Memoli, thinking that the threatened
storm would blow over, began as an extra
number selections from Boito’s “Meftsto
fele.” His fine number was about two- !
thirds finished when the wind became
so boisterous that it blew the music off
the music stands of the players and the
piece had to be cut short. In two or three
minutes the rain began to fall and there
was no “Fest* ’overture. The musicians
. waited a little while, but at 8:20 there
was a downpour. The audience had
scampered away and the musicians left
while the rain wras falling.
The summer concerts began on Sunday. !
July 6, and have been continued through- j
out these eight weeks. The contracl
called for six performances each week
five week nights and Sunday afternoon.
It is a noteworthy fact that only three
concerts, including that of last night,
had to be cancelled on account of in
clement weather. Of the 48 concerts which
the Music Study club arranged for only
three -were given outside of Capitol park
—one each in Behren’s park, Avondale
paxk and Ensley park.
When Mrs*Hundley appeared to make
her address she was greet#l with hearty
applause. She spoke as follows:
“Ladies and Gentlemen: The concert
tonight is the last of the series of free
open air concerts—48 in number—which
the Birmingham public has enjoyed dur
ing the space of eight weeks.
“As you know, these concerts have been
given under the auspices of the Music
Study club, and it was the purpose of
the club to encourage a desire for the
best music to familiarize the public with
tiie best music and at the same time to
please the listening public. 1 trust that
all of this has been accomplished, and
with the knowledge that we were actu
ated by this motive It is pleasing to note
that the crowds in attendance this year
have been unparalleled, and that on the
occasion of the centennial commemora
tion of Richard Wagner, and also the cen
tennial commemoration of Giuseppe Verdi,
when strictly classical programmes had
been advertised* a conservative estimate
of the attendance on each of those oc
casions figured 0000.
"As chairman of the park music com
mittee of the Music Study club, I lake
this occasion to thank those public spir
ited. music-loving citizens whose generos
ity has made this season’s concerts pos
sible. and to express pleasure in a work
where one is • met with such ready re
sponse as has this committee.
“It gives me pleasure to express my
appreciation of tlie singing of Miss Dick
inson on the occasion of the Wagner
commemoration and of Miss Norma
fichoolar on the occasion of the Verdi
commemoration. These ladies added
greatly to the pleasure of the throng of
music lovers who were present. Also T
wish here to thank the newspapers of
Birmingham for their enthusiastic support
of the Music Study club's efforts to give
the people good music this summer.
‘T cannot close without commending j
Mr. Memoli’s artistic leadership of his
very capable band and to express my
appreciation of his desire not merely to
fulfill his contract, but his untiring ef
forts to make the open air concerts of
1913 an artistic success, worthy of the
Music Study club and of the city of Bir
mingham.
“I thank you!*’ (Warm applause.)

WILSON STILL HOPES
THAT NEGOTIATIONS
WILL BRING ABOUT
PEACE IN MEXICO
(Continued From I*nice One)
ico and the Banco de Commerclo y
Industria.
The exodus of Americans from the
capital on account of President Wil
son’s warning to them to leave the
country was greater today than on
Thursday, but not so great as had
been anticipated, since many Ameri
cans took the attitude that there was
no reason for them to get out unless
intervention was a certainty. Many
persons appeared inclined to doubt the
judgment of the Washington adminis
tration for its statement that the fight
ing would become sharper as a result
of cutting off of the supplies of am
munition. These persons seemed to be
lieve that the increased difficulty of
both sides in obtaining ammunition
would result in less active operations
and therefore reduce the danger to
Americans.
Want Information
Many Americans today sent private
telegrams to friends in Washington in
an effort to get more specific infortna
tion concerning President Wilson’s
warning. A largo nmpber of corpora
tions employing Americans in various
outlying points in the republic are pei*
plexed as to what instructions they
shall deliver to their men. since the
carrying out. of President Wilson’s in
structions would mean a complete ces
sation of their operations.
Consul General Shanklin's office
again today was beseiged by anxious
Americans, the majority of whom
sought information regarding the Presi
dent's warning. A large number of
them, however, availed themselves of
the opportunity to secure from the con
sul general transportation to the Uni
ted States.
Bryan Hopeful
Philadelphia. August 29.—"I am glad to
.say that the Mexican matter looks very
encouraging at the present time ami I
believe it is going to grow' brighter every
day," declared Secretary of State William
J. Bryan today at Doylestown, where he
delivered a lecture. ‘*1 anticipate no
trouble, believing that good sense and
judgment on the part of Mexico will
eventually prevail."
When asked if it was true that Pres
ident Huerta had requested John Lind,
President Wilson's personal representa
tive. to return to Mexico City for the
purpose of arranging a compromise on
the proposals of the United States. Mr. j
Bryan said:
"Mr. Lind is still at Vera Cruz. How
long he will remain there and whether
he will go to Mexico City for further
negotiations. I am not prepared to say.
That is something that lias not been
decided."
Foreign Comment
London, August 30.—In an editorial
concerning the situation between the
United States and Mexico, the S vectator
says today:
"In dealing with Mexico. President
Wilson wishes to secure the oiiccls 01
compulsion while announcing that Ii6
never will apply compulsion. This new
method of diplomacy obviously is not
a hopeful one and whetlief President
Wilson will be able to emerge from the
present crisis with credit or safety it
is impossible to say. * * * What may
be called his gentle obstinacy has ma
neuvered him into a position from
which it is not easy either to advance
or retire."
The Saturday Review’ says:
"The President’s tone of cold supe
riority will only outrage Mexican pride
and stimulate President Huerta and his
rivals to take a bold stand as cham
pions of Mexican dignity against Amer
ican insolence to bring about, the hos
tilities w’hich Mr. Wilson professes lie
is most anxious to avoid."
Concluding, the editorial says:
"A frontier incident, and the thing
Is done. Before the Americans know
it there will be a raid, somebody will
tread on the stars and stripes and all
America wrill be remembering the Maine
again."
The Economist, reviewing the Mex
ican situation, foresees the possibility
of General Huerta bolding the presi
dency indefinitely because, it says, he
is prohibited hs provisional President
from being a candidate for the office
and an election cannot take* place con
stitutionally until peace is restored.
LIND WILL NOT
RETURN TO CAPITAL
Vera Cruz. August 29.—John Lind,
President Wilson's personal represen
tative. let It be understood tonight that
he will not return to Mexico City ex
cept on special invitation of President
Huerta. He prdbably will take pass
age for the United States on the next.

CHARGE DEMOCRATS
WITH DESTROYING
CIVIL SERVICE LAWS
<ron(Inn<M] from Page One)
a civil service examination?’’ demanded
[Senator Hoot.
“I think the judgment of a congress
man would be better In the selection
[of competent men than this examina
tion they have been conducting,” re
plied Senator Smith.
“None of the men who have passed
j these examinations are as lit as the
' men recommended by deputy collectors
of revenue.”
Employ Men Outside
As it was left by the Senate the
hill authorizes the collector of internal
revenue and the Secretary of the
Treasury to employ men outside tlu
| civil service for the first two years
after the income tax goes into ef
fect.
A letter from the chairman of the
civil service commission was read by
Senator Sterling, saying the commis
sion could readily fill the new posi
tions.
Another outburst of democratic “in
surgency” came today when Senator
Hitchcock, democrat, denounced* the
methods of the party caucus that
framed the tariff bill. He declared the
binding rule of the caucus had “made
a farce of the debates” In the Senate.
Senator Hitcheo>ck introduced an amend
ment which the caucus had rejected
for a penalty tax on trusts. It was de
feated 41 to 30.
The democratic members of the
finance committee began sessions to
night to readjust the income tax to
meet the demands of insurgent demo
crats who have asked for an increase
in th? “additional tax” on large in
comes. Other contested subjecis also
X'ill be disposed of.
It is expected that a democratic Sen
ate caucus will be held eallv next week
to settle all questions on the fariff bill.
Senator Simmons, chairman of fhe
finance committee, reiterated today his
belief that the measure will be passed
before the end of next week.
Senator Norris of Nebraska gave
notice at the end of today’s session
that he would offer an amendment later
proposing an insurance tax as part of
the bill.

Knew* His Class
From the New York Tribune.
Teachers in an uptown public school are
discussing with some merriment a recent
school incident. One of the boys in Miss
Jones’ class "got on the nerves” of the
teacher by constantly grinning and laugh
ing, and finally Miss Jones, her patience
exhausted, appealed to the principal,
"Send him to me,” said the principal.
When the boy was ushered before the
principal the latter, with all the sternness
at his command,' lectured "him, bringing
the discourse to a close with: “Now, there
are two classes which are continually
grinning—monkeys and idiots. Which
class are you in?” “Miss Jones’ class,
sir." whimpered the boy.
