The failure of parliament to vote a sum for the erection of monument to Cromwell shows that the feeling there against him is not yet dead, although not so bitter as a short time after his death, when his body was dug up and hung in chains. The Americans have a more magnanmous way of forgiving and forgetting, as the Chicago monument to the Confederate dead goes to prove.

A learned physician publishes an arti- cle against soap, saying that it does not cleanse the skin. and that people who use it are throwing away their time. While soap may not serve the purpose for which it is designed, it has other uses. The soap makers are great advertisers and they embellish their ads with pie lures and poetry, thus inculcating love for art and for poesy. They pay well for their space, thus enabling the maga- zines to put their subscription rates down to 10 cents a copy.

Previous to 1889 the statistics of coal production in Alabama did not show the value by counties nor the average prices. It is, however, interesting to note the almost uniform decline in values in every county since that year. as Is shown in the following table. The seemingly in- creased price in Shelby county in 1890, 1891 and 1892 was due to the fact that one of the largest mines was shut down dur ing those years. It's resumption in 1893 brought down the average price to some extent, and the increased production in 1894 caused a further decline:

In 1893 the amount of coal produced in Alabama was 5,136.935 short tons, having a spot value of s5, 5,096. 7s2. The output in 1894 threfore shows a decrease of FS9, ,757 short tons, or 14.4 per cent. In value the decrease was nearly 20 per cent Q9.S5 to be exact), or $1,011. .257. The decrease in product was due to the general strike inaugurated by the United Mine Workers in April. and which continued in force until July, in some cases, and in others was prolonged until August. The scarci- ty of coal occasioned by the strike had the effect for awhile of advancing th market price, but this was not suffici/ to offset the prevalent decline in va and an average reduction in prica cents per ton, or from 99 cents in
 93 cents in 1894, is shown.
