A unique occupation for woman is
reported from Berlin. The proprietor Of
a large brewery there received request
from a Russian lady to be shown the
interior arrangements of the brewery.
After looking Mt various processes
through which the golden beverage has
to go the lady inquired for several de-
tails Of the pneumatic machinery in the
malthouse, which proved 10 the brewer.
to his great surprise, that she was per-
fectly familiar with every detail Of the
entire complicated machinery. Upon in
quiry it was learned that the lady, a
Russian countess, had a large acreage
OF barley growing on her estate, and in
order to increase her revenue from this
source she had built brewery, which she
managed all alone. She was interested
very much III the pneumatic mailing
apparatus because she could not get
skilled labor necessary for the prOduc-
tinn Of malt on her Russian estates.
Tasting the product of the Berlin brew
cry, she stated that her own beer was
not much inferior 20 the German prod
net. When a few days later the brewer
received some samples of the lady's
Russian beer, he pronounced il excel
lent and not inferior in any respect to
the best Bohem IAN or German beer.
This lady is believed 10 be- the only
woman brewer in Europe. .-Philadel-

Their driver had seen the headlight Of

they had not been greatly disturbed by
the accident.
But the train, with nobody at the en-
gine's throttle. was plunging away
through the darkness, the passengers
asleep in their berths, utterly uncon-

The fireman. who had been left be-

THE CUBAN RESOLUTIONS.

The Cuban resolutions which
passed the house yesterday ale the
same that passed the senate some
days since. and they will now 60
to the president as basis for such
further action as he may think it
necessary or expedient to take IN
the matter. They declare that a
state of public war exists in Cuba,
that the United States should
maintain a strict neutrality be-
tween the contending powers, ac-
cording to each all the rights of
belligerents in our ports and ter
ritory, and that the president
should intercede with Spain for
the recognition of the independence
of Cuba" There can be no doubt
about the existence of war where
large armed forces have been
carrying on military operations for
over a year; and it is quite as eer
tain that the insurgents who have
kept up the contest with increasing
prospects of success are entitled to
at least as much consideration
from us as we give to the other
side. That is all that is con
templated by these resolutions.
They simply mean that, so far as
we are concerned, the people who
are fighting for home and libel ty
shall have an even chance with
those who are trying to Subdue
them and keep them under the
CALLING yoke of oppression. Nj re
might properly have been said,
perhaps, but surely not any less,
considering all the circumstances.
1t remains to be seen what the
president will do in the case. The
action of congress does not make
II 4oI llill w uO un
thing, to be sure, but leaves him
free to follow the dictates of Iii.
own judgment. according to such
information as he may possess,
either known or unknown to that
body. 1t is hardly to be sup
posed, however, that he will de
liberately ignore an expression
emphasized by a vote Of pa to -
in the house and Il similar ap-
proach to unanimity in the Senate.
He is well aware, of course
that these resolutions represent in
a moderate way the prevailing
sentiment of the country upon the
subject. The people of the United
States generally and warmly SYM
pathize with the insurgents and
would like to see them succeed
1t is believed that they are fight
ing a good fight, and that Spain
should let them go. The president
is not asked to take any arbitrary
or offensive step, but merely to
use his influence in the interest of
peace and civilization. He can
not very well refuse to do that
much toward the adjustment of a
difficulty that involves the right of
self-government and the welfare
and happiness of a neighboring
people. The country will con
fidently look, therefore, for early
and earnest service on his part in
the way of giving practical and
decisive effect to the action which
congress has taken in response to
the demands of common justice,
fairness and humanity. e

THE GIRLS SCHOOL.
Trustees Decide to Begin Next Month-Miss
TutwiIer Resigned by Force of Circum-
stances Riley Succeeds Her.

Montgomery, Aug. 14.-(special.) 1.-THE
trustees of the state industrial school For
white girls have held a protracted ses-
sion here today. The chief subject of con-
sideration was whether the new institu-
ton should commence the good work for
which it is intended next month or
whether the beginning should be deferred
for another year, by which time all of the
proposed buildings could be constructed
and mora funds could be employed in
making an advantageous start. When
the vote was taken tonight 1t was de-
cided that a beginning should be had
next month.
One of the complications was that Miss
Julia Tutwiler, who had been elected
some months before to preside over the
operations of the school, had, in anticipa-
ton of the schools opening being de-
ferred for another year, contracted with
the authorities of the industrial school
at Livingston for the ensuing session.
This forced her to present her resigna-
ton, which was regretfully accepted, and
DR.. B. f. Riley, who now occupies the
chair of literature in the University of
Georgia, was unanimously elected to
succeed her.
The building which was donated to the
institution by the people of MonteYallo
will be put into complete repair at once.
1t is sufficient for the immediate needs or
the school, excepting for dormltory puf-
poses, and bids for the erection of
dormitory and the other buildings in an
tieipation will be opened on September
2. Until these buildings are completed
the young ladies will board with families
in Montevallo.
The prospects for a favorable opening
are believed to be good.

with these our friends such amicable

President Whites Address.
President White, in his address, among
other things, said:
Gentlemen Of the convention, is it not

where we are at as Tom Watson said
on a certain occasion? If we do not l
know the end of the lumber business
with some of us, If not all, is not far dis
tant. The supply of lumber seems to
keep ahead of the demand, at least there
is q Stacking Oh the demand from SUING
cause or other, and but little or no dimi-
mutton of the supply. In fact, almost
every millman has, within the past
twelve months, increased the capacity of
his mill; has added a boiler, an engine,
a gang rift machine or some machine to
diminish cost and increase the output,
but by strenuous organization and eff
fort l am satisfied something can be done
to alleviate the condition. Let us go to
work, then, and take up and discuss the
situation calmly and dispassionately.
The interest of the trade demands that
something should be DONE and what is
done must be done quickly, or else the
ledger will show a balance on the wrong
side for 1896. And even worse, most of
us will be forced into bankruptcy.
yellow pine has been pushed to the
front by your efforts until it is now de-
manded for all purposes where strength
and durability is required and where
beauty of the natural finish is the object.
No timber is in more demand at this
time or is more susceptible of such a va
riety of uses as yellow pine, but with all
its advantages over other woods, it is be-
ing sold for too little money. We are
not realizing enough for 1t to pay for the
labor and expense spent in manufacture
ing it, much less for a margin OF profit,
and to get more out of it and to make the
business more profitable is one of the
principal objects of this association"
