 However, Lady Naylor-Leyland took part in far more interesting political contest last summer. When the Hon. George N. curzon, who married the beautiful Mary Letter, of Chicago, was made viceroy of Inela, the seat in the house Of commons for the Southport division of Lancashire, s. w, became vacant. 1t had been con- servatiye stronghold and had been repre- sented by the Hon. George N Curzon since 1892 He had been elected, like Naylor-Ley- land, largely through the influence of his beautiful American wife.
 And now another beautiful American Lady Nayior-Leyland, began to canvass the borough for her husband. The result was a political revolution. Sir Herbert Naylor- Leyland upset previous conservative ma Jority and added seat to the liberal side Of the commons. It looks as If the beauty or American girls had more influence with an English constituency than the politics or the candidates.

The American Women
 And EnqIish Politics

Lady Naylor-Leyland and Lady Sophie Scott are tfo famous beauties of London. The former, an American, was Miss Jennie Chamberlain, a daughter of MT. William Chamberlain, of Cleveland Ohio The lat- ter was Lady Sophie Cadogan, a daughter Of the Earl of Cadogan, and Is now the wife of Sir Samuel Scott, Bart, and Lady Sophie is cousin of the Earl of Craven, who married Miss Cornelia Martin, daugh- ter of MT. Bradley Martin, of New York.
 Lady Naylor-Leyland is one of the most beautiful women in England. Her marriage was in a way unique. Often in Anglo American marriages the American girl Is wealthy and the Englishman, especially if a titled one, not overbessed with this worlds goods. But Miss Jennie Chamber lain who did not have a fortune, won in Captain Herbert Naylor-Leyland, of the Life Guards, not only fine type of Eng lishman for husband, but wealth besides.
 It was triumph of American beauty and charm of manner, and a love match on both sides Her loveliness fairly dazzled English Society. At the very first ball she attended the Prince of Wales was so attracted by her that he danced the quadrille with her, and he is still an excellent friend of the Naylor-Leylands.
 In the drawing room of her superb Lon- don residence, Hyde Park House, there is put one picture. Ihls IS photograph of the Prince of Wales, inscribed with his au- tograph. The prince attended a ball at the Hyde Park House early in the summer and was to have attended a second one--a very exceptional favor-but his accident < prevented his doing so. As further showing his interest in the Naylor-Leyand house. hold, the prince stood as sponsor for the Naylor-Leylands' first son. Their second son had as sponsors the Duke of Cam bridge and the Duke of York.
 When Miss Jennie Chamberlain married Captain Herbert Naylor-Leyland, of the Life Guards, every one said she would help her husband in his career, and, to be sure, she has done so. When he ran for parlia. ment for Colchester che aided him in his canvass and her beauty and her attra ctive personality contributed much toward the victory he won. Captain Naylor-Leyland represented Colchester three years, then re- tired and announced his conversion to rad

POULTRY SHOW
To Birmingham as the Horse Show is
 to New York.

The Alabama Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock association will hold its annual show in this city, beginning Monday, December 13, and continuing throughout the week. The indications are that 1t will be the best show in the history of the association. There are quite number of enthusias- tic breeders in Birmingham and vicinity who will exhibit their stock There are many others having thoroughbred fowls, but not being acquainted with the stand ard, do not really know whether they have good birds or not. It would be good plan for such persons to fit up their birds and show them. Every bird entered (unless dtsquaified) will be scored. and study of this score card will give the owner many valuable points. There is time enough yet-three weeks-to get up weight. if defi-
 cient, and improve the plumage Premium lists may be obtained from Secretary c. II. Cole.
 The object of the annual exhibitions is to encourage the raising of thoroughbred and fancy poultry.
 In speaking of the show yesterday s. M. Hanby, an enthusiastic member of the as- sociation, said:
 'The exhibition of the Alabama Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock association next month will be to Birmingham what the horse show Is to New York. We expect to have the society people out in full force and will have on exhibition fowls that will
 be worth the while of any person to come to see them"
 It is Interesting to note in connection with | the poultry show that women are among | the most successful fanciers.
 Among out of door pursuits for woman none are more peculiarly suited to her than raising chickens. They require that con- stant watching, care and attention which the housewife is better prepared to give than any other person, unless it is one who | devotes his entire time to it as business. | Watchfuness and attention to details are | the price of success in a very large meas ure. A nice flock of thoroughbred chickens is a never failing source of pleasure to | the interested owner. Their fine plumage while the supply of fresh eggs which the | well managed flock should furnish is no less | gratifying to the careful housewife.

night were almost perfect. and In conse- duence the professors at Harvard univer- sity and at Tufts college and large num- Der of students report over 800 meteors Seen. 4 the observatory some of the watchers were busy with cameras and oth- CTS merely made visual observation for sta tistieal purposes The meteors began at about Il o'clock. and continued until dawn. with some long intermissions. Between II and o'clock about seventy were observed at Harvard. varying considerably in bril- 1iancy, color and direction. Later the shower increased greatly in brilliancy, and probably over 800 meteors were observed. The professors there are well satisfied with the result. At one time towards 2so'cloek Tuesday morning meteors became so fre- 6seAt that for several minutes every one at the observatory was kept exceedingly busy. A large number of them seemed to simply shoot across the sky and lose them- selves in space, while others either ap- preached the earth or headed away from it. Among the objects sought for at liar yard observatory are to find the chemical constitution of the bodies deducted by spectroscopic observations to determine whether they come in hocks or in a steady stream; to note the true radiant" point; to secure an accurate count if possible, Of the hourly frequency, etc.
 Professor Edward c. Pickering says he Is comment that some good photograpns nave been secured although the negatives have not been developed. No detailed report has been made of the results of any of the visual observations. It is considered possi- ble that the earth passed through the most brilliant part of the Leonide shower Mon day afternoon, but If this is the case it will not affect the results of the Harvard ob- servations, for with stations all around the world it is certain that one or more of them received the full benefit of it, and all ob- servations made at these stations will be reported to Cambridge as soon possible

fled that North Alabama should have a reasonable share of official pie. They re- member very we'll that South Alabama had about the same proportion of state offices few years ago, and recall, too, that this section rendered excellent service in the general elections when they furnished the candidates. It is difficult to explain why one portion of the state should have such a monopoly of offices at one time and such a. dearth at another, but it has been so from the beginning and under the same circumstances will probably be so until the end.
