DIR. SAMUEL P. SMITH.
Tho Venerable Author of the National Hymn, "America," Appropri-
 ately Honored.

JGst at 12 o'clock yesterday a short, im- promptu programme was carried out at Powell school in honor of Dr. Samuel F. Smith, the venerable author of our national hymn, "America''-the Smith of whom Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote in his poem, ''The Boys:''
 And there's nice youngster of excellent Fate tried 10 conceal him by naming him
 Smith;
 But Le ehanted song for the brave and the Just read on his medal My Country of
 1hee.'
 He shone yes: :erday the brightest lumi- nary in our states. He has been enshrined in the hearts of ou. children.
 The exercises were held iu the halls, all children taking pert in the singing. Illus trated progra mines, designed by the pupils, were handed to visitors.
 The programme for the grammar grades was as follows:
 March.
 The Lords prayer, chanted.
 National h mn, eAmeric .'
 Bogra D Iical sketch of \. F. Smith.
 Song, ''S,ar Splngled B,nner."
 Heading, "TwIiigbt.o
 Hymn, Rock of Ages.
 Though tue time was short, the children learned something about the life of the ven- erable au hor, aud had quotations from his poems. Tue programmes were handsomely designed, many of them bein. gems beauty. several of these will be forwarded 10 Dr. Smith, in Boston, where they no doubt will be sweet souvenirs, breathing of love and joy from the hundreds of chil dren in Birmingham.
 The pupils were disappointed at tue uon- appearance of the board of education and the mayor ard aldermen of tue city, who had been invited by Dr. Phillips tov sit the schools at that hour, many of the children reserving special programmes for irien IS among tho ss gentlemen.
 Similar ,xercises were had by the other schools of the city, and appropriate pro- Crammes were rendered.

THE GRAND LODGE

KNIGHTS OF PyTHIAs WILL BE RoYALLY

Hunter, chairman; Julius Feibleman, sec- rectary; A. J. O'Haliorau, treasurer; A.. E. Baker, Jr., F. B. Elder and Louis Phil lips, is hard at work on arrangements, for on Tuesday night grand reception will be tendered the visitors at the Hotel Albert |, and Wednesday night the grand lodge will attend the opera, "Martha," at the Acad : emy of Nil usic, rendered by the Apdrews' Opera company.
 The remainder of the programme has not yet been mapped out, but suffice it to say every moment of the visitors lime will be taken up with some form of pleasureable enjoyment, and no labor or expense will be spared to make 1t the most pleasant meet ing of the grand lodge ever held.
 Gillmsn's hall has been secured for the holding of the grand lodge meetings, and will be profusely decorated. The colors of the order, yellow, bus and red, will pre- dominate. This work will be under the personal supervision of Mir. Joe Herne, whose reputation in that line is so well known that comment would be superfuouF.
 Tuesday morning, the 6;h, the Knights will assemble in the Academy of Music and addresses of welcome will be made by Mayor Stewart, in behalf of the city, and by Dr. E. s. Starr, in behalf of the local lodges.

EEFAULA CHAT.

-EUFAULA, April 3.-[Special Correspond eoce. J-Prof. J. k. HankIns, principal of the sanford street school, tendereo his resignation to the board of education here yesterday, which was accepted. The action on the part of the principal created DO sur- prise whatever, as 1t was generally thought that bis resignation would follow that of Professor Montgomery, which was handed in day or two ago. An arrangement was perfected whereby the resignatious are not 10 take effect until the 12th instant, when 1t is thought their places will be supplied snd the exercises of the school not be Inter- fered with.
 Every effort is being put forth to have proper observance of Memorial Day, which for several years past has not bt en regarded in this city. An invitation was extended all the ladies who felt interested in the movement to meet at the home of Mrs. L. Y. Dean this evening, looking to making the necessary preparations, and it is now thought that the day will be commemor- ated with appropriate exercises.
 Will Jackson, who was recently arrested { at Hatchers, Ga., on a charge of grand larceny, hau preliminary hearing here $500, which he failed to give. During the trial Jackson confessed to several burgla- ries in this city and elsewhere, about which I 0 clue had ever been ascertained, and it further developed that he is wanted for several crimes recently committed in AL baDy, Ga. Jackson is evidently agenuine, warranted full size, hand made tripple- plated thief of the darkest kind and is in fair way to meet his just reward.
 The matrimonial market still holds it's own in this section despite the hard times. Fifteen marriage licenses were issued from the probate office here last month.
 Mrs. NJ. E. Smith and her daughter, Mrs. Sarah Fabens, who have been vis- iting relatives here, have returned to their home in Philadelphia. They were accom- panied by MT. Love Russell of this city.

The God of Fortune.

The Chinese deity of fortune is always represented as jolly god, and the rich votive offerings which cover his altars ure speaking testimonials to his popularity On the 2d of the second month special festival is held in his honor, on which oc oasion his temples arc crowded with wor shipers, who manifest devoutness which is strangely wanting in the services of fered to the loss material deities.
 Feasts of fat things are greedily present. ed to secure his favor, and, not content with leaving the lots on tho knees of the god, his practical minded worshipers seek to lift the veil which conceals his counsels from mankind. For this purpose they adopt a curious device.

Wendell Holmes on Hymns.

It is always interesting to have the opinion of literary authorities upon hymns A little while ago we learned that, in the judgment of Matthew Arnold, the finest hymn in the English language is When I Survey the Wondrous Cross" There is an article in Tho Century which tells us what was thought on the subject by Oliver Wendell Holmes "There are very few modern hymns, said the Autocrat on one occasion, (which have the old ring of saintliness in them. Sometimes when am disinclined to listen to tho preacher at church I turn to the hymnbook, and when one strikes my eye cover the name at the bottom and guess It is almost in- variably Watts or Wesley. After these there are very few which are good for much"

City Men March Well.

The objection is raised to the suggested substitution of long marches for camp work in the long annual tour of militia duty that the companies made up of clerks in our city stores would be at disadvan. tage inasmuch as the men could not sus- tain the severe exertion. The experiences of the war of the rebellion did not show this, however. The wan looking young men from the city stores marched all around the hardy countrymen and thought no more of stretch of 20 miles than the latter did of two.-Boston Transcript.

Nervous exhaustion in children Is VI rry- ing great many fathers and mothers these days.
 While the hurry and hustle of modern life is bringing a constantly ircreasiug strain upon grown men and woms n there certainly comes to light the startling fact of a growing tendency toward nervousness among their children.
 As these boys and girls, when older, will enter a life of nervous strain fully as exact- ing as that of today, 1t is no wonder that parents view with dismay these early signs of nervous weakness and anxiously seek some means ot making the young people strong and we'll again. The remedy is at hand in every city and town in America.
 lt is the remedy first prescribed by that greatest of all modern educators, Prof. Ed ward E. Phelps. M. D., IL. D., of Dart mouth college. It is Paine's celery coin- pound, which Principal Camp of New Ha- ven and President Cook of the National Teachers association have so recently rec commended.
 Countless parents today give their chil. dren Paine's celery compound and see them fore their eyes till they are again restored to the perfect health that belongs to youth. Physicians everywhere advise the use of this greatest of blood purifiers and nerve foods.
 One of the danger signals of nervous ex. desire for food and the capriciousness of appetite. When their overpressed nervous systems have been driven to the point of exhaustion their faces grow pale and pinched, their spirits decline, their bodies lose perceptibly In weight and strength,

MAKING TIGER EYES.
How the Ingenious GIassbiower Fashions
 the Beautiful Globes.


 Tho eye of tho living tiger is one of the most beautiful in tho world. Its iris is yellow, with such wavy markings as may bo discerned in the colored part of hu- man being's eye. These markings aro i'm itated with much ingenuity by tho work man who applies his paint. Of course in many animals part of tho white of the eve is visible, and so the nrtificcr finds 1t necessary to add to his button of black and clear glass some opaque glass at the edges, and this he docs very easily by means of his blownipe. Eyes for dolls, toy figures and all sorts of manikins arc made in tho same fashion In the adver- tising list of tho manufacturer one finds "blind eyes" mentioned These arc made to represent sightoss organs of vision. One use to which they arc put is in the mounting of stuffed animals which aro interesting as individuals, and whoso np- pearance as they wcro in life it is desired to reproduco This would apply to the caso of n dog with history.
 Onco in awhile it is necessary to havo n pcir of eyes made to order for somo ani- maj or other that is not represented in tho stock of tho manufacturers. For example, not long ago giant squid or calamary was thrown up on a Now England beach and stranded. cast was made of 1t in papicr macho, which is now exhibited in tho National museum at Washington. It is only 45 feet long. Tho word only' is used alvisedly, because these hugo mol lusks sometimes attain a size enormously greater, each of the two arms or tontacles having reach of us much as 100 feet But tho eyes of this specimen were as big as dinner plates and they had to be TO- produced in glass. No other creature liv- ing or extinct ever had eyes so big as those of the giant squid, though they were ap- preached in sizo by the visual organs of tho ichthyosaurus of the Mesozoic, which arc in Q manner telescopic, enabling that gigantic lizard to sec its prey at great depths in tho ocean.

they need more and more some active means of supplying the nerves and tissues with better nutrition and the veins with better blood. When Paine's celery compound is given to one of these excitable, weak nerved, sallow, perhaps scrofulous young persons, the mother is often amazed st the rapidity with which 1t restores the strength, builds up the worn nervous tissues aud re- places the lsnguor of a depleted nervous system by the elasticity of youthful health.
 Paine's celery compound makes people well-not only worn out, enfeebied men and women of mature age, but young per- sons whose slighter powers have been over taxed by excitement or immoderate work without proper intervals for rest and re- pair.
 Paine's celery compound has played 8 most important part in the lives of thou sands of young people in every section of this country. Many whose nervous sys- tems had been so stimulated as to unfit them utterly for study it has made vigorous and strong enough to ably bear the burden of coming years. It has enabled them to grow up vigorous men aud women, capable of doing the part of active, strong men and women in the world. MT. James B. Wet gel, writing from his home in New Berlin, Pa., says:
 "Allow me to speak few words in praise of Paine's celery compound. My younger sister, whose picture I send you, was sub ject to nervous attacks aud, we thought, 10 heart trouble. We tried numerous med icines for her ailments, but without much avail. Last winter she had a severe attack of nervous trouble with her eyes and we gave her Paine's celery compound and she improved wonderfully upon 1t, and she has been well ever since. If these few words Of un. olicited testimony can be of any benefit please use them as my unbiased and un- prejudiced opinion.D
