ELITE OPERA CO.
OPENS LAKEVIEW
Chimes of Nurmandy Was Satisfactorily
1'resented to a Largo and Ap, rccla
tlvo Audience Lust Night*
In spite of the threatening aspect of the
weather, the seating capacity of the thea
ter at Lake view was tested to its utmost
by the crowd that filled the auditorium
and overflowed into the long-disused gal
lery, at the opening perfomance of the
Elite Opera Company last night.
From the first note of the overture to
the last of the finale, the "Chimes of Nor
mandy" moved on smoothly and success
fully, evoking rounds of enthusiastic ap
plause from the audience.
Mr. Washburn, ever popular, was In his
very best form last night, and with the
chorus which was in fine trim, fully up
held the reputation of the local musicians.
Though Miss Minnie Vesey, as "Sepolette"
had only occasional opportunities to give
full scope to her magnificent voice, she car
ried her part with dash and effectiveness.
Miss Martha Scruggs, as "Germaine" cap
tivated the audience with her sweet voice
and dainty self. Dr. McKenney’s superb
tenor showed to great advantage in his
role of "Grenicheaux,” and taken as a
whole, the musical standard was fully up
to the expectations of the music-lovers.
Mr. Mount joy Walker made a "very pal
pable hit," both in the character of
"Bailc" and in Ills specialties, and the ac
tion never lagged while he was on the
stage.
The opening night was a success in every
respect, and is a foreiunner of a week of
delight.
The only matinee to be given by the
Elite Opera Company will take place to
morrow afternoon, in honor of the Fourth ,
of July.

THE MINERS WILL
. RECONVENE TODAY
Prospects for jtn Amicable Settle-1
merit Seem Brighter.
LOCALS VOTED YESTERDAY
It is Said That Many of Them Voted to
Accept the Operators’ Proposi
tion—Pratt City Leaves
it to Delegates
The Alabama Division of the United ,
Mine Workers of America will reconvene in
this city today and again take up the
question of a wage contract with the coal
operators for the next twelve months.
The locals all over the state voted yes
terday on the proposition made them by
the operators last week and when the
delegates arrive here today the question of
a strike this year will probably be defin
itely settled. While the locals passed on
the proposition of the operators yesterday
nothing could be learned‘in the city last
night as the result of the vote. Most of
the mines are some distance from tele
phone or telegraph stations and there were
no other means of communicating with
them.
It is understood that the miners at Pratt
City instructed their delegates to the con
vention to make the best possible terms
with the operators. This means that
whatever contract the convention may en
ter into with the operators will not have
to be referred back to the locals. A re
port reached t'he city yesterday afternoon
that the miners at Johns, Adger and Sum
ter had instructed their delegates to accept
the proposition made by the operators last j
week. The mines at these places are
owned by the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad Company.
Information received in the city yester
day was to the effect that with but few
exceptions the mines in the district were
idle. The men who were out yesterday
will not return to work until after today's
convention.
Four furnaces* were banked yesterday as
a result of the suspension of work at the
mines. Two of these belong to the Sloss
Sheffield Steel and Iron Company, one to
the Republic Iron and Steel Company and
one to the Tutwiler Coal, Coke and Iron
Company. None of the Tennessee Com
pany's lurnaces were banked, though three
of the live at Bessemer are still idle, not
having been started up since the strike
began among the stockhouse and furnace
hands three weeks ago.
The prospect for a settlement of the
wage scale looked more hopeful last night
than at any time since the joint conference
began nearly a week ago.
TH.il* Y. M. U. A.
Still in Its Old Quarters-Possibility of
Remaining There All Summer
The Young Men’s Christian Association
will have to vacate its quarters at the cor
ner of Nineteenth street and Fourth ave
nue, recently purchased by the Hillman
Hotel Company, but just when is yet un
determined. The hotel architect is not ready
with his plans, and the company may not
be ready to begin work on the building be
fore August—perhaps the latter part of
August.
The Young Men’s Christian Association
was asked in June to vacate by the 1st
of July, but the officers are now led to be
lieve that they will be allowed to postpone
moving until some time in August.
The committee appointed to solicit sub
scHptions to the fund for erecting a Y. M.
C. A. building will start to work in earnest
this week, and it is hoped that before the
I end of this month it will have made such
progress as to assure the success of the
enterprise. Mr. R. S. Munger has headed
the list with $5,000; but $50,000 is the amount
needed.
The committee in charge of the building
fund movement is composed of the follow’
ing prominent citizens: Robert Jemison, M.
V. Joseph and J. D. Moore, representing the
business men; and W. F. Tyler, T. H.
Johnston and R. S. Munger, representing
the association.
At the afternoon services Sunday Secre
tary Riley gave an interesting account of
the annual conference of association work
ers, held at Asheville, N. C. He attended
the conference and took part in its pro
ceedings. He W’as greatly encouraged and
helped by contact wTith the Southern secre
taries, and his remarks to the meeting here
Sunday aroused much enthusiasm.
STATEFAIR COMMITTEE
Meeting Will be Held in Commercial
Club Rooms Today
The committee appointed by the citizens’
meeting last week to look into the question
of holding a state fair in Birmingham next
fall will meet in the Commercial Club
rooms this afternoon at 5 o’clock. The
Commercial Club, the Board of Trade, the
Trades’ Council and the City Council have
all been requested to appoint committees
to co-operate wdth the Citizens’ Committee
andjtheir committees will probably be pres
ent this afternoon.

TWO NEGRO WO>
OUT ON A CA1
Two negro women used knives with
telling effect yesterday evening. The vic
tim of one was a white man and the other
a negro woman. One occurred about G
o’clock and the other between 8 and 9.
The first occurred in First avenue near
Eighteenth street, the assailant being Lu
clle Jackson and the assailed a white man
whose name could not be ascertained. The
second occurred near Second avenue and
Twenty-second street, Fannie Woods being
badly cut by a negro woman whose name
was not learend.
The First avenue affair, from all the evi
dence at hand, appears to htgre been the
fault of the man, who insisted on the wo
man dancing with him. She refused two or
three times and then he grabbed her
around the waist, saying that she had to
dance. As he grabbed hold of her she
pulled out a knife and tried to stab him

RVING RAMPAGE
but only succeeded in producing a flesh
wound. Both participants were arrested
by Officer Byars and taken to the city jail
where a charge of assault with intent to
murder was entered against the woman ,
and disorderly conduct against the man,
who was so drunk he could not give his
name.
The Twenty-second street affray was be
tween two women and about a man. Fan
nie Woods, it seems, was standing in the
street talking to“a gentleman friend” when
the other woman came up and began to
abuse her. Replies in kind were made,
whereupon the unknown woman lit into the
Woods woman, cutting her on the temple
and in the side, neither gash being serious,
however. Fannie reported the fight to the
police, but her assailant had escaped when
the officers arrived at the locality where
the trouble took place.
BIRMINGHAM BUILDING
Permits Issued in the Past Six Months.
Tax Collections
During the month of June Chief Mullin
of the fire department issued thirty-nine
building permits, the work to be done un
der them amounting to $49,725. During tho
six months from January 1 to June 30, 1900,
he issued 229 permits, the work to be done
aggregating $331,277. These permits, of
course, apply only to the city limits. If
suburban building were included it would
probably more than double the above ag
gregate.
The fire department responded to eleven
alarms in June. Six of the alarms were
turned in from boxes, three were sent over
the telephone, and two were still alarms.

SHORT STORIES
OF THE DAY
Boldness Won the Day
From the hour when he was obliged to
leave Hobart College, stricken with a
hemorrhage of the lungs, through all the
years until, but a short time since, he
yielded to a third attack of pneumonia,
Bishop Mahlon N. Gilbert, coadjutor with
Bishop Whipple of the diocese of Minneso
ta, had fought out many a hand-to-hand
battle with death, relates the Saturday
Evening Post.
Years ago, when but just out of divinity
hall, he was given a charge by Bishop
Tuttle, his lifelong friend. It was the
most difficult field in the west. Young
Gilbert was the only minister >of his faith
in all the western half of a great territory.
In the town of Deer Lodge, Montana, his
headquarters, comprising some six hundred
souls, he had at the beginning of his work
but two communicants. It was from this
town that he went upon mission tours
throughout the region. He determined to
build a church. Walking into the local
bank one day he said to one of the offi
cials :
"I want two thousand dollars, without
any endorsement, to be paid back some
time in the future.”
The banker looked at the young rector a
moment, and then without a sign of fur
ther hesitation he said:
“You can have it! Any man that’s got
nerve enough to ask such a thing deserves
to have it, and you shall have it without
interest.”
A very profitable church fair, held later,
was liberally patronized, and soon after
the proudest man in Montana, as he after
ward said, marched into the bank and laid
down the two thousand dollars in coin and
currency.
Encountered a Case of Discipline
Archbishop Ireland is well known in
Washington, where good stories about him
are frequently told. Here is one of them,
says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. A Protes
tant friend of Archbishop Ireland and an
admirer of his many fascinating qualities,
was struck one day at finding a gray-haired
priest whom he well knew to be an ex
ceedingly learned and able man officiat
ing in a very small parish in one of the
country districts.
“How is it, your reverence,” he asked,
“that so wonderfully capable a man is
kept laboring in so unproductive a field as
that in which I find him?”
“Ah,” retorted the archbishop, rubbing
his hands and** smiling in the unctuous
manner peculiar to him. “Ah, my dear
friend, the very man for the place—the
wery man for the place.’*1
There was a moment’s pause, and then
the archbishop added, as though from an
afterthought, “and the very place for the
man, my dear sir—the very place for the
man.” *
The most reverend gentleman’s non
Catholic friend afterward found that he
had unwittingly discovered an example of
church discipline. The learned priest in
the country parish was undergoing what
is known in ecclesiastical circles as “a va
cation in the woods.”
The Climate of South Africa
Julian Ralph’s powers of description are
quite extraordinary. Though they lead
him at times into seeming extravagance,
yet they greatly enliven his narrative, re
lates the Chicago Times-Herald. He ad
vises the traveler in South Africa to take
along a fig leaf for a daytime costume and
a Laplander’s suit of furs for night. All
kinds of weather, he says, are served out
during each twenty-four hours. As for
healthfulness, not even Colorado can com
pare with it.
“To go to Colorado you must be a mil
lionaire with only one lung, and you must
keep your lung and part with your mil
lion. But here the rule Is to come penni
less with no lungs. Thus established, you
develop new flings and become a million
aire.’’
No wonder the British thought South Af- j
rlca worth fighting for.
John Horan Fined
John Horan, who was arrested Saturday
night on a charge of assault and battery
on Eugene Walton, a witness In the case
against Charles Graham, who Is charged
with violating the anti-pool selling law, was
fined $25 by Judge Feagin of the Inferior
Criminal Court yesterday. j
HEW COAL MINE'
IS TO BE OPENED
n Bibb County Between Blocton
and Gurnee.
LEASED BY THE REYLOLDSES
'
The Seam of Coal is Very Large and
of Superior Grade-New Branch
Railroad Will be Built
Immediately
W. B. Reynolds of Montevallo was In the
city yesterday en route home from New
York, where he successfully negotiated a LO
year lease of 2,000 acres of coal land from
Charles H. Marshall, president of the Con
tinental National Bank, and also president
of the Alabama Mineral Land Company.
The property Is situated in Bibb County,
south of the lower Cahaba river bridge, be
tween Gurnee and Blocton. The seam of
coal it carries is known as the Underwood
or Thompson seam, and is from 5 to 7
feet thick. It is the same as the Bloc
ton No. 2
Mr. Reynolds and his father, Captain H.
C. Reynolds, met M. H. Smith, president of
the Louisville and Nashville Railroad about
two weeks ago and came to an agreement
with him that if they secured the property
the Louisville and Nashville and Southern
would build a joint road to the proposed
mines. Mr. Reynolds said they would organ
ize under the name of .the Bibb County
Mining Company, with temporary office at
Blocton.
Contracts will be let for the erection of
fifty houses as soon as the lumber can be
cut for that purpose. The proposed output
of the mines will be a thousand tons per
day.
The grading and construction of the track
will be under the supervision of T. Q.
Harrison, the engineer for the Louisville
and Nashville Railroad.
REMOVE THE FENCES,
A Birmingham Oitizan Makes Some
Timely Suggestions
To the Editor ot The Age-Herald:
Has it ever occurred to you that there is
invested in this city $75,000 in
front yard fences, and it has been con
servatively estimated that it cost 10 per
cent, per annum to maintain the same—an
annual expense of $7,500. All this vast
amount of money is expended in order that
we may keep out of our front yards cows,
horses and other animals whose total value
would probably not exceed $5,000. Birming
ham is regarded by some as being ‘a dirty,
smoky and undesirable residence place. We
should encourage in our people a love for
the beautiful.
Remove the unsightly wooden fences and
you immediately desire to beautify and
ornament your yards, and in a few years
this would be a city of beautiful flower gar
dens and lawns, a delight to ourselves and
others. It would encourage a love of the
beautiful In our children, and it would ex
cite the admiration of visitors and largely
enhance the value of our resident property.
A home with a beautiful front yard, let it
be a iiov/er garden or a Lawn, gives an air
of comfort, refinement and culture, and
adds at least from 10 to 20 per cent, to the
intrinsic value of the property.
It is estimated that the city has a number
of thousands of dollars invested in the
cemetery and park fences, and that con
siderable is required annually to maintain
fences. They are absolutely unnecessary
anti destroy the beauty aaid convenience of
the parks, making them unsightly and un
inviting. I say remove the park fences,
put the grounds in beautiful order and let
the people enjoy themselves. The execu
tion of these ideas throughout the city
would put into circulation $75,000 and would
save in ten years $75,000 more, and would
increase the actual value of the residence
property in our city fully a quarter of a
million dollars. A vast amount of money
is thus expended in order that about $5,000
worth of cows, horses and hogs may prome
nade our beautiful streets and avenues.
Let us hear from other citizens on this
important matter. T. L. McGOWAN.
Tiie Courts
There is nothing except routine work in
progress in the county and United States
court houses.
The County Board of Revenue was in
session yesterday.
Suit has been entered in the City Court
by B. L. Wertheimer, administrator of
James Yearwood, vs. the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad Company for $10,000
damages. The plaintiff alleges that the de
ceased was killed on July 12, 1899, while in
the discharge of his duties as brakeman.
