effects of anger says.
Anger serves the unhappy mortal
who INDUCES In 1t much the same as
intoSicants constantly taken do the
inebriate. II grows into a sort of
disease which has various and terrible
results. Sir Richard Qunin said, not
long ago. He is "A man very rich In
deed In physical power who can af-
ford to be angry. This Is true. Every
time man becomes white orSred with
anger. he is in danger of his life. The
heart and brain are the organs mostly
affected when fits of passion are In
dulged in. Not only does anger cause
partial paralysis Of the small blood
vessels, but the hearts action becomes
Intermittent; that is, every now and
then 1t drops a beat-much the same
thing as Is experienced by excessive
smokers"
To give way to anger Is a sure indi-
cation of weakness. Mr.. Spurgeon
used to say that man who could not
feel angry was good for nothing. and
that is probably true; but it must be
understood that only he who has mora
strength enough to conquer his owr
wrath and not yield to 1t, deserves
commentator. 1t may help those at
| nlcted with anger to master II, to know
that every time they yield 70 passion
| they place their life in danger.

The Lobster Reached Out.

The Origin of the Malta.

The origin of the Malta dates back to
the time of the Princess of the Swab-
ian line and the catastrophe which
ended the reign of Charles, Duke of
Anjou, on the island; in other words,
to the date of Sicilian Vespers, Easter
Monday, March 80, 1882. While the
French, who were masters of the is
land, were holding festivities Scilian
bridal train passed by. A French Of
ficer named Drochet, under pretense of
searching for arms, used the bride
rudely, and was stabbed to the heart
with his own sword in the hands of
the bridegroom. The Sicilians at once
drew their stilettos and murdered tho
200 Frenchmen present. The populace
ran through the city crying Death to
the French!" Even the churches
proved no sanctuary, and all the
French on the island were slaughtered,
without distinction of rank, age, or
sex. The number that perished is es-
timated in all at about 800. These
words then became the motto of the
islanders; "Morte allie Francese Italia
anello." death to the French is It.

Dodging of the Duke of York.

The duke of York was walking along
Piccadilly the other day with Hon.
Derek Keppel. He was not generally
recognized, and remained for some Sec
onds in the little throng which always
collects at the crossing to st. James
street. At last he made dash for the
shelter. Soon afterward the constable
on duty stopped the traffic for the pedes-
trians to cross over the street. The
duke, however, was still left standing
on the shelter, much to the discomfort
of two young men in a hanson cab, who
Immediately recognized the prince, but
the constable declined to let their cab
man pass on. At length the duke of
York made another dash and ran round

safely on the other side, by which time
he had been recognized all round.-St.

THIS KNIGHT WAS BOLD.
Sir LambtOn LOrnine's Two Great
Days Recalled.

Sir Lambton Lornine's Two Great
Days Recalled.
Sir Lambton Lorraine presided over
a meeting of Baronets. held in Lon
don the other day. The downtrodden
and oppressed Baronets have banded
themselves into an organization to
maintain their. right of precedence
over the younger sons of Lords "and
sich" and to generally brush up the
responsibility of their order.
While Sir Lambton was fussing
about precedence" and such non
sense, how the news from America re-
garding the Cuban situation must have
made him think of the days of his
youth, when as young man of 35
he swept into Santiago de Cuba and
saved the lives of Americans, defying
with his little gunboat the whole
Spanish Power.
The Virginius had been captured
and the people found on board of her
by the Spanish had been tried by
drumhead court martial and were be-
ing shot in the plaza of Santiago.
Captain Lorraine steamed into the har-
Dor, and landing his men, marched
them to the place of execution. stop
the shooting!" was his order.
"Oh, We have shot all the English;
we are only shooting Americans now,"
replied the courteous Spanish COM
mander. ''Never mind, stop the
shooting!" replied Sir Lambton, and
added, quoting Admiral Tatnall, who
helped the British at the battle of the
Peiho River, Blood is thicker than
water" The shooting was stopped,
and Captain Lorraine protected the
Americans until "Albemarle" Cush-
ing came in with an American man.
ofwar and took charge.
Soon after, at the request of the
United States Government, Captain
Lorraine brought this ship to New York
where he was received with salutes
and honors and the freedom of the
city presented to him. The silver
miners of Nevada sent him a silver
brick inscribed, "To Captain Sir
Lambton Loraine-this is brick, and
you are another" and other presents
and addresses were given him. He is
60 years old now, and will probably
never again have as stirring an ad
venture as he did that day when he
steamed into Santiago de Cuba nor
such day of glory as the day he
steamed into New York.

Sot Many Blue Stockings in Egypt.

The latest census of Egypt shows
hat the country is about the only one
N the world where the men are in
majority over the women. The male
,ex in the Khedive's dominions ex-
leeds the female by 100000, and it is
urious to note that this numerical
,redominance of the male is very even
spread over both upper and lower
egypt. 1t is only in the sparsely peo-
lied and negly recovered province of
Oongola that the women are more nu-
nerous than the men. Another inter-
,sting fact is that the proportion of
Egyptian women knowing how to read
md write is just little over one-half
Der cent.

REJOICE OVER OUR VICTORIES Suggested That Mckinley and
 Roosevelt Be the Orators. OCTOBER 20 PROBABLE DATE Hobson, Wheeler and Dewey Will Be
 FittingIY Honored.
THRoNGs OF PEOPLE WILL COME
Comme rcial Club Takes Hold of the Ali fair and Will Push It to Success Meeting to Formulate Ar
 engagements.

It is an assured fact that Birmingham is to have a grand celebration of peace some time in October. probably about the goth.
 Numbers of citizens were discussing yes- terday the editorial which appeared in Sun days Age-Herald calling on the people of Alabama, and especially the citizens of B.r- mingham, to celebrate in an elaborate man. ner the declaration of peace after the war between Spain and the United States. The time suggested is early in the fall.
 There was not a dissenting voice to this plan. Everybody agrees that if any state in the south, or in the union, for that mat ter is entitled to big celebration, that state is Alabama. Wheeler and Hobson are not only Alabamas heroes, but they are the admiration and toasts of the whole country. While none of Alabamas volun- teer troops have yet been called into active service, they have proven themselves ex- eeptionally fine regiments and are soldiers worthy of any celebration that may be given in their> honor And besides this, there are about six companies in the im- mune regiment, which is now at Santiago, and all agree that it is one of the finest body of volunteer troops in the army.
 There is certainly no place in the state more entitled to have this celebration than Birmingham, which has furnished 1500 troops to the American army, over one reg iment. Its big auditorium. it's hotel ac- commodations and it's railroad facilities make it pre-emnently the place.
 There is but little doubt that General Wheeler and Lieutenant Hobson will be present. The former wiH be in Alabama about that time, anyhow, for 1t is just be- fore the congressional election in his dis triot, and he is sure to get leave for a few days The latter will by that time have returned from his wrecking expedition to Santiago, and he is sure to be on hand.
 President Mckinley will be in Chicago early in October to attend the peace cele- bration there, and will then go to North Carolina to rest while before congress convenes. Through General Wheeler and others it is very probable that he can be induced to visit this city. That he would be enthusiastically received is evidenced by the fact that Birmingham turned out en mass about eight years ago to welcome President Harrison. Although he was a republican, it was said at the time that he never had more enthusiastic recep- ton anywhere in the north than he did in Birmingham.
 The Commercial club has taken hold of the plan and it is now an assured suc- cess. A meeting will be held shortly to organize, at which the committees on in yitation, arrangement, reception, etc, will be appointed.

LEADING CITIZENS
 ENDORSE PLAN

The following are among the many ex- pressions of leading citizens heard yester- day:
 J. A. Rountree, acting president of the Commercial club, said concerning the plan:
 "I am heartily in favor of holding a "peace celebration and gIorify over the glorious results of the war. It is true that a great many cities are discussing holding such celebrations after the peace commits sion returns from Paris, but 1 agree with the Age-Herald that is the time for Birmingham to hold a celebration. We should do it right now, while patriotism is felt most strongly and when the subject is uppermost in peoples minds. It could not fail to be a success. Birmingham ex- celed any city in the south in sending sol- diers to the war; and was among the first to respond to the call. Now let her be the first to celebrate the glories of the war I think 1t will be a splendid idea to make national affair out of the occa- sion and invite the governors. senators. congressman, mayors and representatives of commercial bodies to come here and hold a grand convention on the occa sion for the purpose of urging congress to build the Nicaragua canal and to suggest other national improvements. would suggest holding the celebration about the 20th of October. We will then have about eight weeks to get the movement on foot and make all the necessary arrangements. My idea would be to invite President Me Kinley, Major General Wheeler and Lieut. Hobson to be the orators of the day after the grand celebration is over, then hold the convention l have referred to and have President Mckinley preside over the same. I believe that if we go at the mov em ent right that we can get up one of the big gest affairs that has ever been held in the south and that at least 100000 visitors will be in Birmingham on that occas:o It will be splendid opportunity to adver- tise Birmingham and attract the atten- tien of the entire country"
 "I am in full sympathy with the move- ment." said w. H. Skaggs. Several days ago I suggested to a few leading citizens the advisability of such an undertaking. Last Saturday spoke to Mir. Rountree, who I believe is acting president of the Commer- cial club and he promised active co-opera- ton. Chicago will have a great national
