WHAT is COSTS TO BE WALES, HOST
People Who Have Tried 1t Say the
Prince Is Very Difficult to Enter
tain.
From the New York Journal.

From the New York Journal
One of the most delicate and difficult
tasks that ever falls to the lot of the
English nobleman in high favor is the en-
Pertaining of royalty. 1t is expensive, too.
but only the richest try it, and if every
thing passes off smoothly they do not
mind the money, although the cost NAV
have almost wrecked their fortunes. Con-
summate tact and the rarest diplomacy
are the only safeguard for success, and
as these qualities do not often exist in a
superlative degree, defeat and apprehen-
sion are usually the result of a fortnight's
visit by some of the royal family.
The Earl of Lonsdale has recently pass
ed through this experience. At his ia
nous country seat, LOwther Castle in the
north of England, he has just been hon
ored by ten days visit by Albert Ed
ward, Prince of Wales. When the prince
was younger and more of a boisterous
good fellow than he is to-day il was
not such difficult task to please him.
He honored many houses by the royal
the intricate niceties which he now in
sistS upon. But of late years he has Wis
tied comparatively few country houses
so 1t has become the rarest kind of an
honor to entertain his royal highness
How Lonsdale succeeded is a matter of
conjecture. After the departure of the
prince the big red-headed, raw-boned earl
attended the fox hunt. From the first
of the meet he was in an ugly humor He
got into two or three arguments with
titled members of the meet. and, finally,
when one over-ambtious rider Smashed
into bunch of the earls favorite hounds.
wounding several, Lonsdale cursed that
rider with the heartiness and venom of
a hack-drver The gentleman so gener-
ously cursed happened to be a titled man
of Importance, and now he has brought
suit for SANDER against the earl
The latter is ordinarily good-natured
enough, but he had just passed through
a trial which would have tested the nerves
and patience of a saint. Since the hunt
ing episode the cable informs us that
Londoners have argued that something
must have gone wrong during the princes
stays for had everything passed off

OUR FRIENDS THE ENEMIES PopuliSt and Republican County
 Committees Meeting. WILLIE VAUGHN'S VICTORY For Himself and Willie Mckinley Over Bob Moseley and Tom Reed-Dates of the
 Two Parties County Conventions.

The republicans of Jefferson county are busy getting ready for war.
 The populists of Jefferson county are girdng up their loins for the coming struggle.
 The county executive committees of the republican and populist parties met here yesterday and called the county conventions of their respective parties for April F. The two conventions will be held in separate halls, although it is strongly probable they will unite on a ticket composed of an equal number of each party.
 The Republicans.
 The republican county executive com mittee met at 10 o'clock in w. A. Smiths office, Drennen building, Second avenue and Eighteenth street, and was called to order by Chairman Hanlin.
 After considerable discussion the con- mitttee finally decided to call a county convention to be composed of delegates from each beat. The principal fight of the day was made on this question. The Moseley-Reed faction wanted mass convention, and a convention com posed of all republicans of the county who desired to participate, and not re- stricted to delegates selected by repub- llcans of the various beats. The Vaughan-McKinley faction wanted the delegate convention, and won the battle by a vote of IF to 26, and the convention will therefore. be composed of a certain number of delegates from each pre- cinct
 April r was selected as the day for the county convention and the 29th of Febru- ary as the day for the beat meetings.
 A committee of five was appointed to confer with a similar committee of pop ulists. After a consultation the com mittee recommended the reference of the question of fusion with the populists to the county convention. The vote by which this resolution was adopted was unanimous.
 The executive committee felt the neces- sity of a thorough organization of the county and appointed a committee of five to go into the different beats and organize the republicans into working clubs The committee consists Of the following: John T. McEniry of BesSe- mer, chairman; w. H. Harvey of Besse- mer, M. l.. Fowlkes of Birmingham, w. H. Mothershed of Birmingham and A. J. Prince of Pratt City.
 This committee is composed of three Vaughn-McKinley men and two Moseley- Reed men.
 The county executive committee will meen again on the 17th of April at 10 a. m
 The Populists.
 The populist county executive com mttee held a meeting yesterday and de- cided on April F as the date for their county convention, which will be held in this city.
 A subcommittee consisting of Capt R. F. Kolb, - Carwile, Jerry Fountain and George Gorff was appointed to confer with a similar committed from the repub- lican executive committee with reference to fusion or cooperation.
 It was agreed finally to leave the ques- tion of fusion to the county convention.

AsPHYxIATED IN A WELL.
Another Man Has a Finger Pulled
Out by the Roots.


Augusta, Ca, Sept. 1S.-James Caver, a
white man, IS years old, was asphyxiated
to-day while working in a well on New
ton Johnsons plantation, eight miles in
the country. The men at the top of the
well were afraid to go down to him and
stood and looked on while he died. They
lowered the bucket to him, but he was
unable to get in it. After he died they
put graphing hooks on the end of a rope
and drew him up.
T. B. Bainbridge an expert machinist,
who has been working in Lombard's en-
CINE and boiler foundry for years, had his
hand horribly mangled in the machinery
to-day, and will be unable to work for
some time. cambridge is 50 years old, ana
had been working around machinery so
long that he grew careless. Instead Of
stopping the machinery he attempted to
wipe it off with loose waste while run
ming. The waste caught in a wheel and
his middle finger was literally pulled out
by the roots, bones, leaders and all.
