Congressman McCleary's reply to

The Review would suggest to Hon.
Ignatius Donnelly that, instead Of vast
ing any more time on the Baconian
Cipher, he turn his attention to the task
of proving that Thomas Paine was the
author of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence. Jefferson has long borne the
credit, but there is hardly sentence in
that wonderful document which does not
appear, almost line for line and word
for word, in Paine's phamplet on Com.
mon Sense, written and published six
months before.

Mr.. Clough. It attacks him. because the
defeat Of Washburns still rankles within
them and spurs them on to sweet re-
venge. It attacks him, in short, because
they want to sorto'eyensup old scores,
notwithstanding two years ago they
found in Gov.sC lough very good and
acce ptable fellow.
The Review did not agree with them
then and most likely never will upholi
Clough as the ideal candidate for gov
ernor. But when.it gets ready to speak
out against him, itthopes to be inspired
by better motives and able to give better
reasons than those advanced by the lead
ers of politics in Minneapolis.

MlIvN lJRGED TO MOVE FURTHER.

Officers Perdue and Mulleins had an exciting experience Tuesday pulling one Nicholas Mum. Mum barred the door and warned the officers not to come in, but a few heavy kicks and the graveyard end of a revolver convinced him that 1t was better to let the officers take their course. Mum was charged with win hing the affections of another mans wife. together with half dozen hungry looking children, and 1t is said that he has wife of his own and an equal num- Der of offsprings in Pennsylvania. This being the second time Mum has been up before his honor for the same offense, he was given his liberty under the pledge that would shake the dust of Alabama from his feet instanter and ever 4here- after steer clear of Birmingham.

HELP WANTED.
Distressful Plight of Deserving Birmingham
 

Family.
 Mrs. Annie Steele, who lives at 826 Second avenue, yesterday addressed a questing that public mention be made of her destitute circumstances. She says that her husband is a machinist and To- comotive engineer, but that he is out of employment and cannot secure a situa- tion. reporter for the State Herald went to the scantily furnished house oc- cupied by Mrs. Steele at S26 Second ave- nue and found the woman al home with her two little daughters
 Tt is a fact" she said that we are just at our wits ends to get the necessa- ries of life. We have not had anything to eat In the past two days"
 The reporter gave her a small amount of money and then interrogated her re- garding their distress. Mrs. Steele says that her husband formerly lived in Mont gomery and at one time was fireman on the Louisville and Nashville railroad. He lost his position as engineer in Texas during the railroad strike. She says that he was a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, but withdrew from the association after the strike. He worked in Atlanta, she says, while. and about four months ago they came to Birmingham, where Mrs. Steele says she has tried to earn living with her needle until her husband secures work.
 Her manner was frank and earnest and she says that her appeal for public aid is used as last resort. She told the re- porter that her husband was, at the time of the visit, out looking for work some where in the city.

..The Girl I Left Behind Me. "

'lThe Girl Left Behind Me-" which will be seen at O'Brien's next Monday evening, is one of the strongest bookings of the season-perhaps in the estimation of those familiar with the de lineation entirely the strongest. The play has been one of the greatest sue cesses of the past three years throughout the entire country, and when it was pro- duced in London a few months ago, where it is still playing to enormous busi- ness, 1t took that city by storm. The play deals with the military life in Port Kennon, in the Blac foot country, Mon- tana, during the Indian uprising of 1890. and there are many scenes of an intense and exciting kind. particularly the one where the Indians attack the little garri- son at sunrise. The lighter sides of the play rest on the love-making of several

IT CARES NOT FOR THE COST.

When Governor Oates was finally com pelled to get out of Montgomery in order to correct the constant claim made by the Advertiser that he had gone back on his oft repeated declaration that he would not stand for a second term as governor he went down to Clayton in Barbour county, and in a speech repudi- ated the claim of the Advertiser that he was a candidate for reelection. On that occasion and in that speech Governor Oates declared that we needed harmony in the party in Alabama. Since then the Advertiser has felt very much like light ing into the governor, but then 1t could not-reasons personal, you know, pre- venting; but indirectly it has since that time in every way that it could sought to discredit the governor or anything he said then or may have said since of political nature. It scorns the idea that we need and should have harmony. Ut terly disregarding the opinion of Gov ernor Oates to the effect that we should have harmony in the ranks, the Adverti- ser went to work to get some one willing to lend himself to the cause of strife breeding in the party ranks, finally se- curing the consent of MT. Clarke. There is no man in Alabama better situated than Governor Oates Is and has been to ascer- tain what is really needed in Alabama by the democratic party. He made the fight in 1894 and has been at the helm of state nearly two years, and if he had not known the party in this state needed harmonizng he would not have said so; yet in the face of his declaration in his Clayton speech the Advertiser brings Mr. Clarke out for what and as what? Read his letter from Washington an- nouncing and see-to keep Johnston from getting the nomination and as the can didate of a faction in Alabama.
 Nothing has delighted the Advertiser more than the announcement of MT. Clarke, not because 1t thinks he stands any chance for the nomination, but be- cause 1t was really a slap in the face for Governor Oates, who had refused that paper the use of his name on the pre- tense of sustaining the administration and preserving the party, but really to help it in it's personal warfare on Cap tain Johnston.
 The Advertiser does not expect to see MT. Clarke nominated. If 1t did it would be in favor of harmony. It has long since discovered that it could not prevent Captain Johnston's nomination. and, en- couraged by the course of the Courier Journal, it is now seeking to Kentucky ize" Alabama. If successful it would pop up pertly and say told you so. No paper in this state edited by men of good common sense would make the attacks the Advertiser has made and Is daily making on the party authorities and fight party harmony as the Advertiser is fight ing it had it the slightest idea that the man whose candidacy 1t claims to cham pion would receive the party nomination The truth is, the Advertiser has resolved to destroy Captain Johnston if it can, let it cost the party defeat in August if heed be.
Birmingham state herald., 1896-02-06

The Montgomery Journal indites the following letter of assurance to the Ad- vertiser, but in spite of assurances the Advertiser continues it's warfare on the constituted party authority:
 "To the esteemed Montgomery Post office: The millennium is not yet at hand. If Johnston is elected governor there will still be sunshine and shadows. still be rain, gentle as April showers, to make the hollyhock and the Jamestown weed bud and stink and blossom, and the big green apples will still grow and i1pen and mellow and double up the small boy; and the pig in the stie and the COW in the meadow will continue to squeal and low and look sleek and fat; and the mockng bird in the cage and in the tree tops will continue to sing, and the gentle breezes will sough through the tall pines, swaying their branches, just as if the Montgomery Postoffice had succeeded in destroying-just because it wished to de- stroy--Johnston and the party, and in- tolerant political asses will continue to be asses, but their occupation of disrup- tion and destruction, like Othello's, will have been gone"

A Bit of Comedy bv Lewis Morrison.

Frank l.. BiXby, business manager for Lewis Morrison, says: l met Louis James, the tragedan, lately in one of the cities of the interior and he came off the stage from the third act of "Othello,"
 winch was the play that night, and greeted me in his dressing room with. Say, my boy, that star of yours-Mor- rison-is born comedian and 1 know it." Being pushed by me for an explanation he said: You and 1 live in Kansas City in the summer time and it's downright hot there in July and August, and the past summer was no exception to the rule. Well, every time I went down town 1 had to pass the window of a photogra- pher whose place was on very prom inent corner, and there staring at me in a fur coat tightly buttoned to the chin was an extremely large picture of Morri son. At first didn't mind it much, but as the weather grew warmer that picture
 began to give me the horrors, which only increa sed as the mercury rose; but Nor rison didn't seem to mind the tempera- ture; there he was looking placidly at me every time I passed and seeming to gloat over the possession of that coat and my blood a the boiling point. It aggravated
 me to see Morrison apparently cool while I was swelterng, so one day I dropped into the photograp pher's, whom I chanced to know, and said quite perSuasively, oh, by the way, see you have photo graph or my friend ,Morr1SOn Tn the Win dow; you haven't seen his best picture; let me take that one and I'll get you
 much better one.' We'll, to make it short,
 I got the picture, and with glee packed
 it up and sent 1t to friend Lewis with
 note which read as follows: For Heav-
 en's sake, Lewis, it's 100 in the shade out
 here; send summer photograph to re-
 place this one. And what do you think Morrison did?" Without waiting for a
 reply MT. James continued: Wrote
 back all right. have; I've sent him one
 of Mephisto. I tell you Morrison is
 comedian said James, without the least
 bit of suggestion that there might be a. vein of comedy in his own composition.
 Lewis Morrison has this year drawn together for his support probably the
 most notable company of the many he has had during the past decade in which he has been presenting Faust" It is headed by Florence Roberts. most tall ented leading lady, and Edward Elsner, a sterling and finished young leading man.
 The golden chime of bells used by Lew is Morrison in his production of Faust"

 by him from Switzerland. where they were made under the direction of one of the most noted chime builders in the worId-Dutz. Their tone is pronounced perfect

 In discussing the ages of presidents when inducted into office and when bur jed in connection with Governor Nor ton of New York, who now aspires to that high office, the New York Mercury says if Mr. Morton should happen to be elected president In November next he would have passed at the time of his inauguration the allotted age of man by one year, and would be the oldest man that ever entered the White House as president. He would be three years older than William Henry Harrison was at the time of his inauguration, and Harri son was the oldest man who has ever been elected to the presidency. Buch- anan was the next oldest and was only 66 when elected. Of the twenty-three presidents that have been elected only two of them were as old when inaugu- rated as Morton will be on March next If he lives, and only two were as old as Governor Morton is now when they died. If Morton succeeds in securing the cleo tion next time the country will elect a man who is four years older than Wash ington was when he died and fourteen years older than Washington was when elected to the office Governor Morton is now Fl years old and is hustling for negro delegates from the south as though he was not over 50.

Morrison thinks that owing to the length of our performance the curtain should ring up sharp at 8 o'clock.

He wishes to give a particularly good per- formance this season to make up for his absence from the bill last year. Yours very truly,
