An Encouraging Business
Sign.

1t is claimed that the Post Office is
the first indicator of change in busi-
ness conditions. 1t is as sensitive to
the mutations of trade, as the ther.
mometer is to a change in the tenn
perathre of the atmosphere.
Postmaster Green informs us that
last June and July the business Of the
office was at the lowest point of the
preceding four years. Since August
the business has been increasing, and
last month was the greatest in the his
tory of the Office, double that of last
June.
There are many reasons why the
post office should be the first of our
commercial factors to indicate change
for the better.
All the signs" point to revival in
trade, and with courage and conf
dence we can look to better business
future.

The fire occurred at 81 p. NJ. ant
progressed with great rapidity,
The South wing stands $50 feet
from the main building from which il
is separated by fire wall, and con.
nected by an area way.
The wing is three stories high with
attic and basement; and was occupied
by about 203 boys as dormitory. 1t
was fortunate that the fire occurred at
hour named. The boys bad lett the
dormitory only a few minutes before
and were in the dining room when
julius Raether, the gardener at the in
stitution, gave the alarm and, to kevo
the feeble minded youth out of danger
Supt. Doren ordered them locked in
the dining room.
The institution apparatus was In
sufficient to cope with the fire and the

VICTORIA'S CABINET

HOLDS MEETING, THE OBJECT OF WHICH
 IS KEPT VERY QUIET.
 LONDON, Feb. 19.-The cabinet meeting, which otherwise would have been held on Thursday, was summoned today and sat for about an hour. The supposition is that the business transacted related to some changes in the programme of the govern ment for the session. There was not a whisper in the Hobbies of the house of com- mons suggesting dissolution, nor was there "muoh gossip in political circles'' over the matter. Not single conservative evening paper ventures the absurdity of suggestip g that the meeting had even the remotest reference to dissolution.
 The Globe, the leading evening paper, explains today's meeting by saying it is usual for the cabinet to meet immediately after the address in reply to the queen s speech is carried, and surmises that the purpose of the meeting was to discuss the position of the Chinese-Ja Japanese war.

DEATH RATHER THAN DISGRACE.

WHAT WAS THOUGHT TO BE LUNACY
 PROVES A DAsTARDLY swINDLE.
 BALTIMORE, Feb. 19.-The suicide a week ago of William w. Crozier, a promi- nent business man of this city, was at the time generally attributed to temporary inc sanity. It developed today that he has been guilty of fraudulent practices, and it is believed committed suicide rather than face disgrace.
 Mr. Crozier was the only surviving mem- Der of the firm of H. s. Lanfair < Co.,, and large dealer in canned goods. Through out the winter he wss bull in the market, and just previous to his death stored thou sands of cases obtaining warehouse receipts therefor. The receipts he hypothecated, i, receiving large advances from banks. When 50, ,000 cases or goods on storage in Browns warehouse were overhauled it was discov- cred that over 500O cases, supposed to con- tain cove oysters, were filled with tomatoes and corn. The packer says be was in- structed by Mir. Crozier to stencil the cases as containing oysters. The loss through this fraud will be S10,000. Meantime the jnvestis is going on, but the system of lending money to fruit and oyster pack CTS on goods in storage has received a se- were shock. The banks will not be able to recover their losses from the estate.

NATIONAL GUARDsMEN

FROM JERSEY CITY OFF TO SAVANNAH
 FOR COMPETITION WITH GEoRGIANs.
 JERSEY CITY, N. J., Feb. 19.-A party of national guardsmen left for Savannah this afternoon in a special car attached to the Florida express on the Pennsylvania railroad. The party includes the state rife team, which will compete with Georgia's crack team on Washington s birthday.
 The southerners were defeated by the New Jersey marksmen last September at Seagirt at the interstate rifle match. They want another test of craftsmanship and invited the Jersey men to pay them visit. The invitation came from the Georgia Hussars of Savannah and members of Gov ernor Norton's staff. The party will be met at Savannah by the Hussars and will put up at tue DeSoto hotel. After the match they will be entertained at the Derene plantation, one of the largest plantations in the state.
 The party included Brig. Gen. Bird w. Spencer, Co.'s. George c. Peffsr, Michael J. Barrett, Leon Abpett, c. A. Sterling, Robert Adrain and John T. Vanclef of Governor Wert's staff, Adjt. A. T. Holley, Maj. D. A. Currie and Lieut.. W. V. Clark of the Second regiment and Col. Delacey O.. Walker of the Sixth regiment.

NAPOIEONlC,


 Perhaps one of the sublimest descriptions of character in history is contained in Hugo's third book of "Les Miserables.o o This description is drawn in the form of a contrast between Wellington and Napo- leon, and is contained in his review of the battle of Waterloo. He says: 'Water- loo is the straugest encounter in history Napoleon and Wellington. They Are not enemies; they are opposites. Never did God, who is fond of artitheses, make more striking contrast, more ex- traordinary comparison.' He describes Wellington as being man of "precsion, foresight, geometry and prudence; car mage, courage, equilibrium and strategy When we have completed his description of this man, who overthrow, in the greatest battle of time. the greatest hero of 8 time, we wonder what is left to be said for his opposite, but our eagerness is quickly satiated when we read: "On the other hand intuition, divination military oddity, superhuman instinct, a flaming glance, sp indescribable something which gazes like an eagle and which strikes like the lightning, prodigious art in disdainful impetuosity, all the mysteries of pro- fonnd soul, associated with destiny. The tuo pidiuy bho iclCoV, OhO bii, summoned and in a manner forced to obey, the despot going even so far as to tyrannize over the field of battle. Wellington was the Bareme of war; Napoleon its Michael Angelo, ard on this occasion genius was vanquished by calculation" He refers to Waterloo as the hinge upon which the nineteenth century swings.
 There is no character in history which .J ofo d- points; no name in its annals whose luster is so strangely hidden from some and so brilliant to others. Is one the groveling emotion of sectional prejudice or is the world at error in it's estimation of the quail ities that make men great2 Be this as it may, Napoleon's illustrious traits of char acter will be examples to the ambitious breast long after a single voice is raised against him as genius.
 When we have followed this "man of destinyp from the college campus to the fields of Waterloo we do not wonder that here in the last decade of the century the people spurn the pessimistic theory of the necessitarian, which tells us that "man deserves neither blame nor praise." We do not wonder that his name is the guiding star of the youth and the matured man of ambition; we do not wonder that the ''Na- poleonic craze' is sweeping over our land. There is no stronger incentive to the man who would live a great and good and noble life than an expression of appreciation from the best people of the community in which he lives of his ideal hero, or the man whom he would be like.
 It is to be a highly commended fact that our city has not fallen short of the example set for us, and the AGE- HERALD feels safe in predicting that the Napoieonic evening set apart for Thursday by the ladies of the Central Presbyterian church of Birming- ham will be duly and becomingly com- mended by the people of our city.
