But then, it may be asked. how it comes about that the pawnoroker in England Is facetiously spoken of as 'uncle.' The French writer is quite equal to the occa- sion. The English say uncle" because the French say "aunt." Here in England everything goes by contraries. The French coachman drives on the right the English on the left the French soldier has red trousers, the English soldier a red coat; the Frenchman eats an oyster out of the hollow half of the shell, the Englshman out of the fiat half; the French epicure drinks champaigne after dinner, the Eng fish epicure during dinner, and so forth. It is all a case of pure "cussedness."

Miss Sarah BarnweII EIliOtt's
 Latest Magazine Story

The thought of the country is at this time so deeply concerned about the so-call- ed southern problem, lynchlng, that 1t Is not remarkable to find that some very un- usually good literary work has for its basis this question, which no man has yet been found to solve As mob law in all of its intensity is not confined to any especial see- tion Of this country it is manifestly unjust to hold the south entirely responsible for it's existence.
 It is an unfortunate political trick to at tempt to cast the burden of lynch law upon this section. There are crimes which have been punished in nearly every portion Of the United States with speedy justice un- delayed by the techncalities of legal trials. This has been the case more frequently in the south than elsewhere, because of Q class of population which this section has to deal with So, in consideration of these facts, it is not remarkable that the plots, of the stories which deal with this subject should generally be laid in the south.
 Miss Rives-cousin of Amelia Rives- has recently published a novel treating of lynch law, which has been much com mended by literary critics, and Miss Sarah Barnwell Elliott has short story of ab sorbing interest in Harper's Magazine for February, the plot of which involves the same question.
 Miss Elliott's story she calls "An Incl 
 distinctly evident in the telling of this episode of southern life.
 The characters are clearly drawn: the local coloring is given with the pen of an artist, and the incidents are thrlllingly told.
 Miss Elliott's literary work is receiving recognition from critics of the highest rep utation and is being liberally paid for by the best periodicals.
 She Is a sister of Maj R. H. Elliott, of Birmingham, and her success is source of genuine qualification to many Alabama friends. The nation, a weekly journal de- voted to the best political and literary thought of the day, has this complimentary criticism of Miss Elliott's latest story:
 In Harper's "An Incident" by Sarah Barnwen Elliott, is sure to be read by everybody, for it is an inherently inter- esting and well-told story. Students of "realism" will notice that It has none of the usual machinery the locality is vague, and there are no bright red sounds, nor low murmuring neutral colors, nor violent blackguardism to make us say how true, how exactly like life! What makes the story real is what as Shakespeare noticed, makes a play real-the behavior and speech of the characters, and the self-effacement of the story-teller Her only intrusion is in the last four lines-lines which, to our mind. impair climax already perfect in it's simplicity.

ABOUT THE sUNBEAMs,
(Translated from the German by Bir-
 mingham Girl)

(Translated from the German by a Bir-
 mingham Girl.)
 A little boy was sitting on the rug in his mothers room, and the sunbeams shone slantingly across the room, and be- cause they shone and glistened so bright ly he tried to catch them with his little hands, but they always glided from under his fingers, and his mother, who looked on said sadly: ''Sunbeams, my love, one cannot hold"
 And the little boy grew to be man, and had experienced many a time, that when he wished to hold firmly the sun beams, they glided through his fingers as of yore. One day he happened to see a girl who was not at all pretty, but when he looked into her eyes, suddenly the memory flashed through his mind, how as a child he had sat on the carpet in his mothers room and when he tried to ex- plain to himself what had just then re- minded him of 1t, he discovered in the eyes of the girl those same sunbeamzs which he had even tbasrsioved SO dearly. And. al<asassz--,sshsn- he met her, he saw anew the bright rays of sunlight and the old picture of his childhood days. But when he spoke to another of her eyes this one seemed surprised and said: "Why they are quite small, gray and unattrac- tive" He could not understand this, for he did not know that only he could call forth this lustre from them. He saw her often and always there was flash and bright light in her glance, but he heard ever the words of his mother ringing across the waves of time: ''Sunbeams,

The statutes under which the investiga-
ton of the Cumberland street fire was in
stituted provides that 'swhen property is
destroyed or damaged by fire it shall be
the duty of municipal officers in cities
and towns to Immediately notify the in
surance commissioner of the same, and to
investigate, or cause to be investigated,
the cause, circumstances and origin OF
the fire. The statute does not require
an investigation by the municipal officers
dire thy. They may investigate them-
selves, or 'scause to be investigated. 1t
seems to us that much more satisfactory
results would be obtained if they should
delegate tire investigation to the chief of
the fire department. and some of his subor-
dinates rather than make it themselves.
The facts could be ascertained much
better and the conclusion would be much
more satisfying. Within short time
we have had two fire Investigations by
the Board of Alderman and neither OF
them has been much better than farce.
Hereafter it would be wise to let the chief
engineer do the investigating in the first
instance. Then if the insurance commits
sioner Is not satisfied he can make an In
vestigation on his own account under
section three of the act. Such investiga-
tions as we have been having tend more
to defeat the ends of justice than to pro-
mote them.
