TIE ANGEL OF DEATH
Summoned a Noble Young Spirit to the Be- yond-Miss Annie Andrew Dies
 in Atlanta.

Miss Annie, daughter of Rev Dr. J. O. Andrew of this city, died in Atlanta Thursday night, after a very short ill- ness. She went to Atlanta early this week, in perfect health, to- spend few days at the exposition. After being there only g. day or two she was sudden ly stricken with illness and gradually grew worse until Thursday night, when death seized her. .,4
 Deceased was just budding into young womanhood and life full of hope and promise stretched out before her. Death, coming as it did, when she had barely passed her teens, was a terrible shock to her father and family, who have the sympathy of a large circle of friends and acquaintances.. .e
 Dr. J. O. Andrew recently came to Bir- mingham to assume editorial control of the Alabama Christian Advocate, to which position he was recently elected by the board of trustees of that publica- ton. He had not moved his family here. For some time past Miss Annie had been staying with relatives in Montgomery, and it was from that city she went to Atlanta few days ago.
 Her remains were taken from Atlanta to Oxford, Ga, for burial, and will be inferred in the cemetery at that place today

POLICE CIRCLES.

Emma Jones, colored, was arrested last night by Officer c. W. Austin. on the charge of assault with a weapon. She attempted to cut another colored damsel with a knife, it is said. As she accom- panied her assault with strong words a charge of abusive language was also en- tered against her.
 George Diffy, colored, was arrested yesterday by Officer Austin for keeping a disorderly house. He has a negro restaurant on Third avenue, between Nineteenth and Twentlth streets.
 Cora. Brooks, Della Jackson and Elm ma Jones had lively fight yesterday afternoon on Officer Austin's beat. The officer carried the trio to the holdover and they will have an opportunity to ex- plain matters before Judge Feagin this morning.
 Whelan Smith, negro, about two months ago made an assault on woman with knife. Officer Walker, on duty as a mounted police. arrested him. but when securing his seat in the saddle the horse became unmanageable and the prisefler escaped. Officer Walker was riding along Third avenue yesterday and espied Smith on the sidewalk. Dismount- Sng he ran towards him, but Smith tried to get away. Officer Austin joined in the chase and the two captured the pris- oner on the next block. When searched at the station Smith had a razor on his person.
 Officer Ira Goggan while watching his beat yesterday on Twenty-third street observed a negro youth enter cheap clothing house with a pair of shoes in his hand. The negro came out of the shop before the officer reached 1t and ran up the street, dropping the shoes as he ran. The shop dealer says he tried to sell the footwear for 50 cents.

Pathetic Life Drama Ends.

When the snow-covered sod fell upon
the coffin of Mrs. III. j. McNulty at De-
troit career full of pathetic interest was
finally closed. Mrs. McNulty fell dead
Mt the funeral of friend two days ago.
Later il became known that the heart
trouble which had produced death was
incurred largely by overwork. For twelve
months past the woman had been toiling
in an effort TO earn enough money to lit
up small home for herself and her hus-
band. Her husband was sentenced at
Grand Rapids over n year ago to serve
eighteen months in the State House of
Correction at Ionia for passing a forged
check, and in anticipation of his release
and their happy reunion the wife had
toiled day and night to furnish the home
and buy him new clothes. But the strug-
gle was too fierce and was largely the
cause of her dramatic death. When the
facts became known several Detroit mem
bers of the Legislature petitioned the
Governor TO pardon McNulty so that he
could attend the funeral of his wife. The
Governor acted at once.

CHASTITY Human Table.

There is table in the Segato depart
ment of the Nuova Santa Maria Hospi-
tai Museum at Florence, Italy, which
for originality in the matter Of concep-
ton is probably without rival. The
designer and constructor of this won
der was Professor Giuseppe Segato
Zone authority spells his name SegattD,
the discoverer Of lost process of petri-
flying human flesh, and who worked in
the various hospitals and museums of
Italy about forty years. To the casual
observer this table Is nothing more or
less than a curious mosaic made up Of
marbles and agates of different sizes
and colors. In reality, however, it is
composed wholly of human flesh, mus
cles, viscera, intestines, etc. A writer
who describes 1t in Harper's Magazine
says:
"It comprises every portion Of the hui
man body transformed into stone, des-
tined to endure as long as the world
shall last. Different portions
of the human body, showing the whole
internal anatomy, are so beautifully
petrified as to be wonder to the trav-
eler as we'll as an object of study for
the medical student"
The table is bordered with upward Of
one hundred human eyes, preserved by
some process which makes them look
as natural rs life. 1t is without doubt
the most CHASTITY piece of furniture ever
designed by man.

In competition with German, French
and English steel works the American
Bethlehem works have secured Il
$4,000,000 contract for armor plate. 1t
will not do, however, TO assume that
an average armor plate may be made
cheaper In the United States than in
the countries named. The Bethlehem
works have q process Of hardening
plates which competing works do not
possess. The Russian government Is
contracting for what Is known as Har-
veyized armor, kind that IL cannot
procure in Europe. But the fact that
an American steel-plate mandatory
can turn out better plates than can be
made in the old countries is a demon
stration of the wisdom of the protect
i've policy. Under free-trade rule we
should have been buying steel armor
of Europe. Now we are selling steel
armor to Europe. If the rule of buying
a thing where it could be made at the
least cost had been followed, we should
have had no steel works at all. The
success we have made in this steel in
dustry should confirm the Government
In its policy of protecting the ship
building industry. The rule Of buying
ships where they can be bought at the
least cost would be as destructive to
the ship-building industry as the same
rule would have been applied years
ago to the steel industry.-San Fran

Taxation.

In the early days OF the Virginia
and Carolina colonies taxes were paid
I'm tobacco.
Most of the Asiatic countries have
been ruined by the system of farming
the taxes"
Customs duties on imports were col
lected in England by Ethelred III. as
carly as 90.
Almost all the Turkish taxes are
farmed out, and the resulting corrup-
ton is very great.
During the fourteenth century In
Italy a tax was levied on every one
who wore shoes.
Great Britain raises f19,000,O00 from
the liquor taxes and 100000 from
the tax on tobacco.
The first mention Of any sort Of taxa
ton in Greek history Is tax levied
by Scion, Il. @. $40.
The Empress Josephine once paid
$1,000 for dress, and so angered the
Emperor that he ordered the dress
maker to be scnt to prison

The Only Avenues Open.

Free traders, as proof of the benefi-
cent effects of the Walker tariff of 1916,
are accustomed to speak Of the number
Of miles of railroad built during the
years from 1916 to 1860. They tell us
It was the time Of the opening up of the
great West. They might as well say
that the discovery of gold In California
was the result of the Walker tariff.
Those very things which they cite-viz.,
the building Of many miles of railroad
and the opening up of the West-show
the reason why the panic was delayed
until 1857 instead of following on the
heels of tariff reform, as did the panic
of 1893. In the years following the
Walker tariff, men who were thrown
out of employment went into the unde-
veloped West as miners or as pioneers;
they found work in the construction Of
railroads. While these avenues of en-
ployment were open the panic was
warded off. In these present days of
tariff reform our workingmen have no
such refuge, but tramp our streets
searching for work. These have been
the only avenues recently open to them

Secured N Big Verdict.

In the Circuit Court at Manistique
Henry BRASIL secured verdict against
the 800" line for $4,000. Four years
ago BRASIL was put off n 500 train while
moving. He sustained an injury to his
knee and subsequently entered n claim
against the company for damages. Fail
ing TO obtain satisfactory settlement
with the officials of the road. he COM
menced suit and some time ago was given
n verdict in the Circuit Court for $1,000.
The company's attorney made a motion
for n new trial which was granted, and
the rehearing took place last week. The
jury returned verdict for the plaintiff
in the sum of $4,000. The defendants
will take an appeal to the Supreme Court.

For Foreign Manufacturers.

Mr.. Retired Wilson has stated that
under Protection the Government re-
ceived little and the protected indus
tries much, while under Tariff Re-
form" the protected industries received
little and the Government much. Mr..
Wilson was right in one part OF his
statement. American industries do re-
ceive little under Tariff Reform" They
receive nothing, in fact. SO far, in
deed, nobody in this country seems to
be getting anything out of Tariff Re-
form" The Government is running
behind every day, our people have been
out Of work and our industries are at
standstill. The only ones who seem, so
far, to have succeeded In getting any
thing out of Tariff Reform" are the
foreign manufacturers and exporters,
judging by the statistics Of our increas
ed imports.

of President Cleyelnnd's idea OF tariff
reform. is left ut home, as are dozens OF
those who believe In taking their free
trade well adulterated with protection
to favored interests. The verdict Of the
polls cannot be taken as condemnation
only of Democratic departure from
Democratic principles. 1t Is strong con-
demnatlon of the principles themselves.
1t is unmistakable Endorsement OF the
Republican idea Of protection to Amer
lean industries.-Tr On. W Times.
