It will be remembered that the English com- mittee, at the inssigation of Ida Wells, wrote him letter concerning the lynching of negroes in Alabama. The Governors reply was published by the English press, and was so spirited and truthful that 1t at- tracted the attention of the English speak ing world,

DIED.


 Mir. Washington Wilson, father of Mrs. Dr. Charles Drennen, died yesterday even- ing st 6:50 o'clock at the residence of Dr. Drennen, after an illness of but two weeks. For Q number of years, however, he had been in ill health and his death was not unexpected. Having realized for several months that the sands of his life had nearly run out, he made all necessary preparations for the summons to "come up higher' and died resigned, feeling fully prepared to meet his Master. e MT. Wilson was native of South Car olina, but moved to Philadelphia, Ala, some sixty years ago, where he lived, hon. ored and respected by all who knew him. He was a consistent member of the Meth- odist Episcopal church, south, and a master Mason.
 His funeral will take place from. the res.- idence of Dr. Charles Drennen, 2020 Sixth avenue, at 10 o'clock this morning, and be concluded at Harmony, Ala, with Masonic honors. He died surrounded by his immediate family and number of lifelong friends. INTERESTING TO EVERY MAN IN BIR-

Clothing and rent are cheaper than in America, but coal costs $7 per ton, eggs 2l cents a dozen, sugar cents, butter 25 cents, beef 20 cents, etc. Competition is very sharp. The idea of the government seems to be to export manufactures and import food, and therefore taxes the workingman an import duty on his food in order to give the manu- lecturers an export duty.

"CHARLEY'S AUNT. n

The story of "Charley's Aunt" is: The name and the plot hinge on the fact that two college youths are in love with two
 girls, whom they invite to lunch in their rooms at college, expecting that the aunt of one of the hosts will arrive from Brazil in time to act as chaperon. She does not
 come, and 0 smooth faced chum of theirs,
 who has bad experience in amateur the. atricaIs, is persuaded to don woman's clothes and impersonate the belated reIa- tive. He is asked to do this for only fifteen minutes, buta series of complications en. sue which compel him to maintain the de- ception throughout the action of the play. The complications can hardly be imagined, much less described. The two girls take fondIy to the bogus aunt and she Cor he) takes advantage of her tor his) opportuni- ties and returns their kisses and caresses with great vigor, much to the discomfort of the lovers, his chums. He also receives two proposals of marriage, and becomes mixed up in other complications too numer- ous to mention. In brief, the play from

 CODE OF SIGNALS FOR BIoYoLIsTs. The bicyclisN should adopt code of signals so that pedestrians may understand what step to take to gss out of tho way. While cross- ing street the pedestrian hears the bell of the steel stssd that flies ae swiftly and as silently as the wtnd, but he cannot tell still or stop back. The cyclists should adopt some such code as this: Ono tap of the bell means that the pedestrian must stand still. two taps step faster, three taps step back, four taps jump up In the air.
 OUR COUNTY RoAps.-The grand jury makes wise suggestion in it's reference to tbs public roads. Jefhsraon county has more than 100 miles of excellent macadan- ized roads and they are badly washed in places and badly nsnded fn others. These roads are kept up uhder the old lay, and hands he throws dirt or brush in the washes, instead of filling in with chert. The supervision of these roads should be let out by contract. The road con ntractor csuld supply himself with the necessary tools and wagons, and could keep up the roads much better and much cheaper than by the present amateur system. In every precinct there are parties who prefer to pay the road tax rather than work the roads. This amount should be turnsd into the road fund. and added to tho SIS ,000 now to the credit of the road fund would make a handsome sum for building and repairing the roads.
 HIS NOSE OUT OF JoINT.-Out on the Cahaba river, about fifteen miles east of Birmi in gham, is 8 religious sect known as "Shermanftes. They are not followers of John Sherman tu his political vsgarfes, but disciples oi Rsv.

WhaI the religious belief of these Shermanites consists of is not known, except that the wearing of long hair is one of their cardinal doctrines. These Shsrtrsnites sometimes come into Birmin gham, and on acsount of their long hair they always attract attention, espe. cially from our nunsrous tonsorial artists. Yesterday morning Shermanife, with long locks hanging over his eyes and falling down over his cellar, was seen on the streets, but he did not attract the attention usually accorded the members of his sect, probably rom the fact that he WAS taken for nr, If fin a fookhall pla vara.
