 The Geneva commission in the Ala bama award clearly defined the law gov- erning the neutrality of nations The commission decided that Great Britain was liable for the damage done by the Alabama, for the Alabama was built in her ship yards and sold to the Confed- crate States. This was bitter pill to England but she swallowed it gracefully, well knowing that it would work to her good in the future. This decision was something new in the eomity of nations, or rather it was a clear definition of a half recognized principle. Up to that time one nation would help another when at war, and only feeble protest would be made. lafayette fitted out a ship and gathered around him a company of brave spirits and came over to help the Americans win their independence of the mother country. England protested to France that she would stop Lafayette, but France treated the protest lightly, saying that Lafayette was a hair Drained young man and that his flibus- tering expedition would come to grief. Under existing laws, if France would not prevent such an expedition as that of La Fayettes every civilized nation would unite against her and punish her for such violation of the neutrality laws of nations

 The "Alabama page" in the Age-Herald is truly interesting. There under ones eyes is news from all over our grand old state and what a picture of industry, progress, development, proud cities, happy towns and villages and peaceful hamlets it presents. The Age-Herald truly represents the. state. One who reads it must keep up we'll with its march to development happiness and wealth.
 Aside from the news service. the local staff of writers do so well. Indeed, no paper has better writers, for even away down here in the sweet old 'piney woods' there are those who look for Miss Polly's" columns, "BeMon's' page, "Womankind" Paul Pry' and "Stella Stone" each one giving the news in such delightful fashion. Stella Stone, in last Sundays paper, wrote very brightly about the prevalet type of he- roes and herones, the sickly, signing, dying dyspeptic, moplng kind, who talk of their remedies and ailments all through the book, and winds up with a few words about cranks, citing Dr. Sam uel Johnson as one of ''ye olden time" cranks, but says that his peculiarities were probably aggravated by the fact that he never married or had a home. Now Dear Stella, have you forgotten the ugly, coarse fat, selfish old woman he married, who spent more time painting her face and Quarrelling than in malI-

 Jacksonville, Fla. June 4.-Sheriff Bowden of Duval county received today the death warrants for William Jones. convicted of the murder of his daugh- ter, Florence Jones, and Alexander Simms, convicted for the murder of Po- liceman Edward M. Minor April ', 1895. Both men are colored. The warrants fix the date for the hanging of both- men July 10. Neither of the men displayed any nervousness during the reading of the warrants.
 Jones still maintains his innocence. Smms said he was sorry for the deed and was ready to give mp his life for 1t. It will be remembered that Jones daugh- ter was found lying in some bushes in the outskirts of the city with her throat cut and over sixty knife wounds in her body The murder remained a mystery for several days. Finally Jones was ar rested.
 The evidence, although circumstan- tial, went to show that Jones had killed his daughter to prevent the fact that he had been criminally intimate with her from becoming known. The girl was in a delicate condition

How a Business Man in Atlanta Sold Two
 Fly Screens.

Fly Screens.
 On one of Atlanta's principal thor oughfares there is d merchant who de- serves a special mention, as well as lots of trade. He is evidently a close student of human nature says the Atlanta Con- stitution, and has used his ability in this direction to splendid advantage.
 It so happens that for several years he has had on either side of the entrance to his place of business a couple of hand some mirrors. Evidently he has ob- served that nine passers-by out of ten pause to take peep at themselves in the looking glasses. It is human nature. It does not necessarily mean that the person is vain. The woman looks in to see if her veil or hat or hair is arranged properly. The young man looks to see if his collar or cravat has, perchance, worked itself awry.
 At any rate, they all look.
 In order that he might utilize the mir TOTS this business man made a Napole- onic movement. He put before them a couple of fly screens for doors that he wanted to sell. These screens half hid the mirrors. On the screens was placed the price. For several days they re- mained there-one day they had gone l am told that a certain charming ma

CUBA AND THE UNITED STATES.

The Cuban revolutionsts have an ad- vantage over the Spanish soldiers in the matter of arms. The revolutionists are using the latest improved rifles, which they received from the United States. There is no law to prevent pr- vate parties in this country from selling arms to the revolutionists. This ques- tion was decided in the Itata case. Dur ing the revolution in Chile the Itata was loaded with arms and left San Fran cisco for Valparaiso. She was appre- hended and brought back. The Fed eral court decided that the stoppage of the Itata was unlawful and she went on her way rejoicing. If. however. the revolutionists in Chile had been recog- nized as bellgerents then this govern ment would have been expected to stop any shipment of arms, for such shipment would be violative of the law of neu- trality of nations. The same rule holds good in regard to the Cuban revolution ists If Spain should recognize them as belllgerents other nations would be re- ouired to prevent by all lawful means any aid or comfort that might be given them. But if Spain recognized them as belIigerents she would be estopped by
 
 when captured confiscating their prop erty and otherwise treating them as rebels. The Confederate States had some trouble in getting recognition as bellig- erents at the outbreak of the war, but finally gained such recognition and was therefore entitled to the rights of bcllg- erents.
 This government cannot prevent the shipment of arms to the Cubans, nor can it prevent individual Americans from go- ing to Cuba to join the revolutionists. Such an attempt on the part of this gov ernment would be an interference with individual liberty Such step has been taken by despotic Russia, but never by republican America. But this govern ment can prevent an organized body of men from arming themselves and char tering a vessel and going to Cuba under the flag of the United States. Such a course would involve this government and make 1t liable for damages. It is to stop such organized filibustering expe-

Secretary Herbert told the young men at Auburn that character counted more than intellect in the race of life. Nine men out of every ten who make failures are lacking in moral qualities.
