GOVERNOR JONES LEAVES. .-Governor Jones left yesterday afternoon for Mont gomery and he will remain at the capital several days disposing of the business that has accumulated there since he has been in Birmingham. The governor has been working assiduously the past several weeks to put an end to the occasional outbreaks of lawlessnes in this district aud bring 1t back to it's normal condition. This has re- quired all of his time here, and during his absence from Montgomery a great amount of business has accumulated there.
 READS LIKE IT, Birmingham wag likens Governor Jones and his conference with the miners committee to Dante's conversation with Virgil. As Dante called up Virgil to explain all those terrible things be saw, the fiery furnace, the cries, howls of rage, murders, demon of destruc- tiou, etc., so the governor calls up the committee to get enlightenment. And as the conversation between Dante and Virgil resulted in an explanation of dark prob- lems, so the conference between the gov ernor and the committee will undoubtedly result In great good.
 To OPEN THE OPERATIC SEASON HERE.- It is claimed that the Irish comedian Rob- ert Gaylor, was offered $6O0 week for Q six months engagement in London. These figures seem incredible, but in view of his wonderful success "across the pond,' the statement can hardly be doubted. MT. Gaylor, with his own company, in "Sport McAlister' is one of the early attractions through the south this season. The entire performance will be novelty in every re- spect, as Manager William A. Brady has secured trunk full of new things while in London and Paris, which he will introduce into the entertainment. He will open the season here August 29.

WHAT A YEAR BRINGS FORTH.

One year ago to-day 44,537 paid their
way into the grounds OF the Worlds
Columbian Exposition at Chicago to
witRess one of the grandest sights
that has been displayed upon this or
any other continent. To-day, how
different is the scene which, too, will be
gszed upon by thousands Of spectators.
But how different will be this crowd.
One year ago all were pleasure
seekers, drawn together from all parts
of the United States and other countries
to-day those who compose it are resi-
dents of Chicago, many forming mob
uncomfortable and vicious, bent upon
destruction whore opportunity presents,
mad and desperate. No culture or
refinement exists there, for these people
are really the scum OF the earth wild
and hot &c mpered foreigners, anarchistic
in their tendencies, and disconnected
and grumbllng and perhaps hslf-fed
natives Of our own land.
The past year has been such as to
cause deplorable condition among the
poorer people OF Chicago, and those who
hang around the scene of the Worlds
Fair grounds and the district in toward
the city doubtless have those among
them for whom some pity should be
expressed on account of the misfortunes
of the hard times. But Others, who ara
90 bent upon destruction and disorder,
have bee; mo so british in their propen
stiles and so anarchistic in their ideas
that they have no place in the hearts OF
true American citizens.
But the scene, how different. Now
only the blackened and ruined rem aims
of many OF those palatiai structures are
TO be seen. Incendiarism has accom-
plished the Work of destruction which
was being Carried on slowly by the
wrecking companies. Thursday night
saw the demolition by the flames Of
these buildings and their existence re
mains but in the minds eye

Dos mujeres me han besado

besos que no Sc han Dorado,
pues q las dos las he amado
con todo mi coraz6n.
Fue una nina la primera;
era IN angel inocente,
una illusion pasagera;
la die que me quisiera,
y me dio IN beso en la frsnte.
Fue la otra una mujer,
voluble y estrafio ser
qae en pago de mis- agravios,
con inefable placer
me puso un beso en- los labios.
Por elias mucho he sufrido
que ingratas fueron las dos
y hoy mi coraz6n herido,
