great corporation, whether my ago were
~ Or ~, should want all of my en-
ployees OF subordinates to call me "The
Old Man. Not, of course, to my face
or when they were addressing me, but
among themselves Or when they spoke
of me to their friends.
"His Majesty" "His Royal High
ness, Ills Excellency" and the like
all indicate that the persons to whom
they are applied possess power, but in
this commercially democratic age and
country the one appellation Of undisput-
ed autocracy.is "The Old Man."
Applied to the head Of q concern it
frequently indicates love, generally re-
spect and always complete submission
to authority. It is as free from any sug-
gestion Of age as is reverend. 1t is
never given when there is question Of
authority or a smoldering rebellion
against it.
When '"The Old Man. says a thing.
that settles it; there are no questions to
be asked; there is no comment to be
made. When "The Old Man" does some
thing, or fails to do something, there is
no criticism to be INDUCED in.
':The Old Man. is the one person
about the establishment who is absolute
ly his own master, whose coming in
and going out are unhampered, whose
encouraging word carries real weight,
and whose reprimand indicates real dan
ger, to whom ''sir'' is right and not
"a courtesy.

when, through his half closed private
office door, he hears the boys term him
thus kindly, let him congratulate him
self that loyalty is in his service and
-that he has attained the acme Of dignity.

Ventilated Gloves For Officers.

There are very few novelties in mill
tary goods, but some: gloves recently put
on sale by dealer are novelties. They
are for officers who have. to wear white
leather gloves according to-regulations.
The new gloves are Of wash leather and
have ten holes in the palm Of each hand,
while the space between the fingers is
cut away toward the palm. The object
of the holes is to keep tho hands from
perspiring. From behind, when the
hand is closed, the holes do not show.
The gloves are successful il their object.

A Judge of Ribbons.

In one of the large department stores
up town is a pale-faced, red-headed
child with a pair of heavy spectacles
that impart solemn look to her deli
cate face. She stands all day in front
of a counter hung with gayly colored
ribbons, and it is her particular duty
to take ribbons out from the electric
light Of the shop to the street door
and decide there whether or not they
are exactly the same shade. The shop
girls have learned that her judgment is
to be relied upon, and it was the acct
dental discovery of her exactness in es-
timating cOlors that gained FOR her the
novel place she occupies at present.
All day she is kept running backward
and forward between the ribbons and
the door deciding whether ribbon is
cream or white and the complicated
questions as 10 tints and shades. She
is an important parsonage in her way,
considerably more exalted IN position
than the young cash girls of her own
age. Her duties are really important
and out of the yards of ribbon that are
daily sold over the counter every sale
which depends on a question of match
ing is decided by her.-New York Sun.

In the agricultural line Texas leaes
all other states in the variety of It's
products. Cotton, corn and the cereals
grow and are raised in every section Of
the state and in the central and south
ern portions sugar cane and sorghum
cane are profitably cultivated. On the
Gulf Coast two or three crops of veg
etables are raised each year. Berries
are shipped six weeks in advance of
the home crop in the north. Pears,
peaches, plums, oranges, figs, olives
and nuts all grow abundantly and can
be marketed from two TO three weeks
in advance of the California crops
Large quantities of rice are now grown.

and the settler desires to secure "a farm

vastly more reasonable terms; if he
wants more land TO cultivate, Il greater

JASPER ALFRED STADLER.
A Bright Young German-American Citizen SuccumbS to Brlght's Disease-He
 Died Without an Enemy

Jasper Alfred Stadler died in this city yesterday morning at 2 o'clock surround ed by warm personal friends, who though they were not akin to him by blood ties, were virtually so through personal as- sociation MT. Stadler was born in Re- gensburg, Bavaria, thirty-six years ago and was graduate of the University of Munich. He was master of seven lan- guages and ripe scholar, an upright gentleman, and it can truthfully be said of him that he had not a single enemy on earth.
 Shortly after leaving college he enter ed the Journalistic fi6ld but beeing too warm and ardent an advocate of the people, he was driven into exile and came to free America.
 In 1885, in company with a number of miners, he came to this district and at- tempted to make a living as a coal cut ter. His health would not admit of this work and he came to this city, where he met Mir. A. Speaker, who introduced him to DrS. J. D, S. and w E. B. Dayis who, forming liking for the stranger, took him into their household and made him one of their family. At this time Mir. Stadler could not speak word of English. He at once set about learning the language and soon mastered it suf- ficiently to accept the position of private
  was also appointed by them business manager of the Medical and Surgical Journal.
 In 1893 he again ventured into journal ism for himself and founded the Staatz Zeitung. This venture did not prove a success and he began the business of collecting and teaching German. He later accepted position with the Ala bama Courier as local editor and solici- tor.
 Three months ago his health failed and, at the suggestion of his friends, Drs. Davis, he went to Trussville to the home of some of their relatives, where he soon improved so much that he came to this city on the 1st instant and re- sumed his duties with the Courier. Two days later, however, his health again gave way and he went to bed. He was a victim of Bright's disease and soon sue cumbed to the fatal malady, though he had the best of care. and medical atten- tion, and the end came at morn.
 The last request of MT. Stadler was that he be buried in the family grave yard of the Davis family at Trussville, so that he might be as near them in death as he was in life. He was a staunch member of the Birmingham Tufnverein, and this organization was desirous of interring his remains here, but his last request was obeyed.
 The remains were taken to Trussvlle yesterday afternoon, escorted by six members of the Turnverein as a guard of honor. The interrment takes place this morning.
