ABOUT PROMINENT PEOPLE.

The freedom of Dundee, Scotland, will be conferred on Sir William Harcourt whlan he visits that city on political mission in November.
 Sir Ralph Henry Knox, K.C.B., the new British under-secretary of state for war, has been in the war office for over forty years. He has been accountant general since 1882, and was appointed as- sistant financial secretary in 1895.
 Prince Hugo, of Hohenlohe-Oehrng Duke of Ujest, who died recently at Slawentwitz his seat in SiIesia, was the head of one of the most ancient and wealthy of the great territorial families of Germany. He owned immense es- tates in Silesia and Wurtemberg, besides vast forests and rich mines. In 1871, for his work in the ambulance service dur ing the Franco-Gierman war, he was ap- pointed a marshal of the empire, and the Order of the Black Eagle was conferred upon him. He was a great fayorite of the EmDeror William l.

An Old Proverb Verified.

The Atlanta papers are bragging about fha great increase in the business of that city since New Orleans adopted strict quarantine. Birmingham's trade has been steadily increasing for weeks, but the Age-Herald hopes that it is not due to the misfortunes Of oth~ ers. "It is an i'll wind that blows mo- body good" the Atlanta papers are re- beating, as they count up their gains and the losses of their neighbors.
 This is not the way to talk. Birming- hams increased business is the result of better times and the demand for the output of her manufacturing industries. Such prosperity is gratifying, because it builds up and benefits all. It is in no sense the result of she calamities which have befallen other towns. At qanta has talked foolishly about her open gates and about the profits com ing from her sentimental gush.
 As a matter of fact, her gates are no longer open. Visitors have to show that they are all right before they can get in, and they find it hard to get out.

The Dispensary Failure.

The report comes from South Carolina that the dispensary system is on its last legs, and Mhe prcGlibitionists will now try to pass a straight out prohibit tion law. It is to be hoped that these foolish experiments will come to an end some time. Maine has been under pro- .hibitdry law for about forty years, and sech census shows that she has made lesN ngogress than any state in the union.
 Nor dees. prohibition prohibit in Maine. The IaH is dedged whena it is not openly lsafIsd. Ht is nothing but sham, and

When Is It Serious !?

Mr. Henry Waltterson is unwilling to assume the responsibility as editor of the Louisville Courier-J ournal for the editorials printed in that paper some few years ago advocating tare cause of sil- yer. This would imply that MT. Wat terson did not give the editorial page of his paper very close attention. He &C., knwledges allowing great latstude to his subordin ates. but says the writer who made a study of flhe monetary question and wrote so ably upon the subject af;- erwards died lin an insane asylum.
 If MT. Watterson did not believe in silver then, why did he not shut off the silver editorials. The truth is, the courier-Journal was at one time the strongest advocate of silver in the south. but when che Louisville banks got pos- session of tt. so to speak, it became the organ Of Wall street, and supported Mc- Klnley. AS late as 1887 the Courier Journal was championing John G. Car lisle as the greaz advocate of free silver. When MT. Carlisle was elected speaker of the Forty-naph congress, in 1885, he was then the most pronounced free silver man in congress, and continued as such until he became a member of MT. Cleve- lands cabinet. when he, too, was placed under eile spell of Wall street.
 The editorials may have been wrb.ten by a gentleman who died in an inz zsnse asylum. but it appears that those who, in fact. should be in similar institu- ton are those who are in charge of tine

A Northern Methodist Movement.

The laity of the Methodist Episcopal church, north, are not satisfied with their representation in their quadrennial gen. eral conference. At present an annual conference of that church can have but two lay delegates, although they may
 send a ministerial delegate for every fortyfive ministers. Some of the annual conferences are very large, and thsre is preponderance in the general confer- ence of clerical delegates. and a corre- spending loss of influence in the day rep- resentation. True. the lay del.g gates may call for votes by order but this is rarely done, as 1t is considered unkind to the Ministerial delegates, whom ali respect
 Say delegates were first admitted in 1872, and down to the present time their position in the general council of the church has not been an enyiable one. They do not always know the bishops who preside. and they are easily and uniformly outvoted on any proposition in which they are especially interested, so 1t has come about that there Is wide

Sensible Any Time.

The fever scare has caused many cities and towns to undergo a thorough cleaning, and this will be blessing and a preventive of disease. In this pro- gressive age every town should adopt up-to-date sanitary methods. Dirt is 'lnsightly in city, and it invites fever in summer and diphtheria in winter.
 Whether there is any apprehension of vlst from the fever or not every town in this country should be kept clean. The money spent for proper sani- tation is we'll spent. It not only promotes the public health, but it makes city more Inviting, and 1t draws enterprise, capi- tai and a good class of citizens.
 If the authorities will make it point to keep Birmingham every month in the var perfectly clean she will soon be- come the largest city in the south.
 But negligence in sanitary matters will retard her progress and injure her more than any other one thing can pos sibly do.

Dangers of Hypnotism.

Mrs. John Barker, of Chicago, is ad- vertising for her husband who has been missing for about three weeks. Mir. Bar ker is frequently missing and his wife has to hunt him up. His excuse ds a. very satisfactory one and should make him an object of sympathy. Gt seems that a pretty, black-eyed widow with plenty of money Is trying hypnotic experiments upon this unfortunate man. She has him completely under her con- trol and makes him disappear from his home whenever she takes the notion.
 MT. Barker is well-to-do, and The lives happily with his wife. It grieves him very much to be thus turned into plaything for the wicked widow, but what can he do about it? He is hslptss in the matter, and has to submit to the spells of his fair persecuter until his wife rescues him. It is a very sad case indeed. and it should be a warning to all married men. Whenever they are ap- preached by a young woman who wants to dlypnotize them they should seek safe ty in flight or get their wives to look them up.
 If this hypnotic business ds to go on no man will be safe. He may at any time be captured by a hypnotist and held prisoner indefinitely. Doubtless at this very moment the unhappy MT. Bar ker is hoping that his wife will gslt on his traii and get him out of the widows clutches. His mental anguish must be too terrible for description. Hypnotism is a wonderful thing. espec- iar,y in Chicago, but it is safe to say that dt would not cut much of a figure down here. If an Alabama wife found that aser husband had been hypnotized by young widow she would break the spell in two minutes and break ewery- thing else in sight. Isms stand a very poor showing in this climate.

HIS KLONDYKE TREASURE.

From the Chicago News. There was wild excitement all through
 out the Klondike town, And on the streets men hustled to and fro
 and up and down. And at the corners, open-eyed with bated
 breath did stand To list unto the widest tale e'er told in
 that wild laud. "T'was Nosey Mike who made the find, i"
 said one to those around: Tn Frozen Gulch ho saw 1t jes' a-peepin'
 out the ground. 'Geewhiz, n whiskers, Nike I sez, when
 l did see the thing, You've struck If rich this time you have,
 and I am glad, by dingr' And those that heard the wondrous news
 their claims abandoned right Away and came a-pourin into town to see Till Nosey Mikes old cabin quick was
 filled with anxious men Who gazed upon his find and sighed with
 joy time and again. 'T'A give" cried one, whose rapturous
 eyes to leave the thing were slow -Four h aaundred I, fifty millions for the thing. But Mike just shook his head and said:
 Termorrer, gents, come here And youseH see the biggeS' thing of any
 Of the year." They came--three hundred strong--and
 Mike stood OCT pot In which there was a, sayory soup all boil
 ing steaming hot. 1.-Two hundred for a silver full," cried he
 and those around Planled down the price and praised the
 day when he the onion found.

Shall It Be Postponed ?

In another column of this issue of the Age-H -Herald will be found Q news story relative to iGhe adrisability of postponing Alabama Day at the Nashville Centen- nal because of the quarantine regua- tions of Tennessee against certain sec lions of the state where yellow fever exists. It is the duty of the people of Alabama to make its day at the expo siion a memorable event, but uniess the people from all parts of the state are permitted to attend the chances for a large attendance is not encouraging. As will be seen in telegram from Presi- dent Thomas of the Centennial Alabama day can be postponed and ar other one assigned in October. It might be wise to have the postponement made.

The Armor Plate Plant.

From the Nsw Orleans States.
 Birmingham offers greater advantages by reason of the low cost at which steel can be manufactured there, and the chances are that city will get the plant, if tine government decides to locate in the south. It is to the interest of the people of New Orleans to pull for Bir- mingham, not only because a number of our citizens are interested in manufac- turing enterprises and mines there, but for the additional reason that if the gov ernment builds an armor plant there, 1t will result in dry dock and navy yard being established at this port.
