SENATOR MORGAN'S REPLY.


ing Corporation Against state.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Dec. Ex-senator
John T. Morgan has replied to the open
letter Of Gov. Johnston, charging that GER
tain indirect statements made concerning
his (Johnston's) connection with the uni
versity land scandal, upon the floor of
the United States senate, were untrue
The reply severely criticises the COVER
nor's action In connection with the sale of
valuable mineral lands of the State uni
versity to the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and
Iron Company. 1t continues, In part:
"You have attempted to put my state
ment in a false and garbled way so that
you could make denial of what you
either invented or profess to have heard
that / have said in the senate, knowing
that you could not deny what did say"
After quoting from the Record the
words used in reference to the Alabama
corporations seeking protection of the
laws Of New Jersey, Senator Morgan
continues:
"The charge is distinct and unambigu-
Gus that you owned. or had owned
large amount of stock in an Alabama COR
poration, one of several that had sold
their property of every kind to the New
Jersey company, ana that this Alabama
corporation leads the procession in a
monster monopoly, that mad to leave Ala
bama to find home and shelter in New
Jersey. You cannot misunderstood this
charge, nor can any honest man mistake
1t. And. as I stated in the senate you
know that 1t is strictly true
In conclusion, Senator Morgan said:
you doubtless felt very strong in your
supposed ability to rule the state by the
machinery in your hands, but very recent
lessons should admonish you that you are
also subject to the power of the laws
state and national, and you cannot press
your defiant contempt of the rights of
the state and people Ia complete success"

FAN PAINTING.
4 NV Fad That Will Be Popular
with the Ladies This
Winter.

A new kind of fancy work is come
into fashion. and it is one that is not
likely to be very common. as it requires
considerable talent. a knowledge OF
painting, and is, besides, very expensive
work. 1t is the painting of fans. This
is not exactly new. for fans have been
painted on parchment, paper, silk and
transparent material for some time, but
It is now the fashion to paint on vellum
parchment or pigshn. Even better
than any Of these is chicken skin, but
this is difficult to obtain as yet in this
country, and those fans that have been
finished have been painted on skins
that were bought abroad.
The fan should be of medium size,
not large, but yet larger than the en-
pire fan that has been fashionable for
so long The fad is to use two or three
CT brown-and the design can be a min
iature with scrollwork about it, some
odd design in arabesque or Grecian pat
tern. or the design on some old fan may
be copied. Museums are ransacked and
old books pored over to find designs
that are popular to copy. Some women
who are ambitious and really have tai
ent for this sort of thing have copied
the Vatican pictures; others have con.
tented themselves with much simpler
things; and the trouble is with very
simple design that it leaves so much of
the skin uncovered, and this requires
most careful toning down in coloring-
most difficult piece of work-and as
yet the fad is only in its infancy, and
there are not many places where this
accomplishment is taught.
After the fan is painted comes an.
other difficulty; that is the mounting of
it properly. Antique shops furnish rare
specimens of carved ivory, tortoise shell
and mother-or-pearl sticks, and, of
course, these add greatly to the beauty
of the work; but they will not always
fit the design. The most successful
workers buy their sticks first then have
the skin cut, or, at all events, marked
out into the proper size, and then pay
some attention to the pattern on the
stick in the design that is painted.
These fans make most charming we'd
ding or Christmas presents, but, it must
re well understood. it takes some time
to finish satisfactorily, and are, as has
been said, expensive. They are not good
for hard wear, but deserve place in a
cabinet or on table of fancy tritles
Undoubtedly there will be a great num-
Der Of these turned out when they are
better known, and when women take
lessons in pa1n,,ns. 2-cry line of good
work will show to advantage, but. alas.
every incorrect line will also stand out

ABBAS H., THE KHEDIVE,
some Facts About the Young Mon
arch Whom England Does
Not Like.

Abbas X. --ernE r-"nJ upon making
his deposition becoming necessary the
readiest substitute would appear to be
his younger brother, who from child
hood upward was always the brighter
and more amiable boy of the two. But
there is an alternative worth considera-
ton, and that is the restoration of the
old Mussulman succession vested in the
elder branch of the family. This was
set aside in 1866 by Sultan Abdul Aziz,
who was bribed by Viceroy Ismail to
alter the succession ron MS d1rect line.
1t was then that he received from his
suzerain the Eighsounding Persian
title of khedive. By this arbitrary act
Prince Hahn, the only surviving son
Of Mehemet Ali, was excluded from the
succession in favor of Ismail's son, Tew-
fix. Hahn, the most liberal and en-
lightened member of the family, is
now dead but his children remain
The eldest son, Prince Said. who has
received careful European education.
would be persona grata to the Egyp-
tan people. both as the grandson of
Mehemet Ali and as representing a re
turn to the Koranic law of succession.
The present khedive is the seventh
ruler Of Egypt in the line of Mehemet
Ali and the second Abbas. The name
is a sinister one in the Egyptian dy-
asty. The first Abbas, who succeeded
Ibrahim in 1s49, had a brief reign but
long enough to make his memory eX-
ecrated. Cowardly and cruel, addicted
to the most repugnant form of vice,
he was assassinated by his own crea-
lures in 1854 at Abbasiyeh, in the pal
ace whose gaunt remains still line the
road.
His nanlepecame py-word in Egypt,
and the members OF the vice regal fam
lily have always discreetly consigned
him to oblivion as much as possible.
He did not reside at the Cairo citadel
like his predecessors, Mehemet Ali and
lbrahim, but built himself rambling
palace in the heart of the town, con-
splcuous feature of which is lofty
tower, which he used for his hobby of
pigeon flying. Latterly he hid himself
