The Summer at Long Branch.

AS the summer season approaches Il is
evident that the Paris exhibition will not
have the effect on the summer watering
places that was feared by many. The West
End Hotel and Cottages. at Long Branch,
which opens for the twenty eighth season
under the same management, the cottages
and restaurant on June 8, and the hotel on
June 81 have a larger list Of engagements
than for a number Of years Fast Every
room in the cottages has been engaged for
the season, and the best rooms in the hotel
are being rapidly taken.
The death of Mr.. Ernest Meyer. who for
thirty consecutive seasons furnished mus
ical entertainment to the guests Of The
West End, win be felt by many, but with
their usual desire to furnish their guests
with the best that can be had. the man
agement has secured the service of Mr.
Nathan Frankie OF the Metropolitan Opera
House Orchestra as leader for the coming
summer. His reputation is second to none
In the country, and the many patrons of
the hotel may well look forward to a mu-
steal treat this year.
An army of plumbers. painters decora-
tors. ETC.. have been at work for the D. st
month. renovating the house and plaeing
the grounds in perfect order. Many bath
room suites have been added in the hotel
and the cuisine, which has always had a
reputation for excellence, will be on a par
with the old standard.
On the whole Long Branch is looking for
one of the brightest seasons for years The
Monmouth County Horse Show Associa-
ton have fixed their dates for the coming
season the same as last year, namely: the
18th. 9th, and 2Sth OF July and the great
success which attended the military and
athletic tournament last year In August
has encouraged those interested to hold 1t
annually. The presence of the New Jer-
sey troops this season al Sea Girt will un-
doubte1ly add local interest to the show.
The walks have been much improved
and are in excellent condition for wheel
men and lovers of driving.

fair chance at the auction. Get onto the
romance
Sure" assented the telegraph editor.
THE savage father refused The lover
committed suicide-razor or drowning, l
don't remember precisely All that took
time, and gradually we got the country
worked up to a pitch OF excitement. One
New York editor telegraphed an offer of
$1,000 for the rescue of Rosa Whfteface.
'Whiteface has shut her up in an under
ground prison., l wired. and then the
whole Eastern coast, from Boston to
New York, was convulsed with indigna-
ton. The, day of the auction approached.
Rosa fell into a decline. Nothing seemed
to arouse her, and even government ra-
tions were left untasted. Finally old
Whiteface was bought off for large sum,
furnished by New York newspaper The
newspaper got great advertisement out
of 1t, and the editor prides himself to this
day on his chivalrous conduct
who got the money!" asked the tele-
graph editor, innocently.
THAT is Kansas mystery" replied
the old reporter solemnly. THE incident
is now closed. but l don't mind telling
you that Rosa, her father and her lover

Wa1la Tonehlra's Fate.
Speaking of Indian Stories" chimed in
the old reporter, puts me in mind of the
strange case or Walla TOnehka. Waua
Tonehka was no myth. I've seen him
with my own eyes. Well, as you know,
about a year ago TonehSa was to have
been shot for numbering some six persons
He was bad Indian. Several times he
escaped death under the Choctaw law,
but finally they condemned him to be shot
Then they released him on parole to play
baseball with his team Tonehka was to
show up on the appointed day, sit down on
the edge of his coffin and walt for the
fatal bullet"
"Well?'
THAT much is true history, more or
less. Tonehka was to be executed at a
little village seventy-nve miles from q tel
egraph station. A short time before the
execution Judge Caldwell issued re-
prieve. A messenger started on stout
Indian pony for the Choctaw village.
Rains had swollen the creeks, washed
away bridges, made the clay roads as
slippery as glass. Would he get there
in timer"

Telegraph editor.

Tonehka barred his brave Indian breast

his foam-covsred steed and Tonehka was
saved. Others of the boys preferred TO

in drug store and draw lots as to which
of US should send the shot and which
the not shot stories. Personally / be-
leve that Tonehka was saved

Paderewski

Paderewski, the greatest pianist in the world, will make his first appearance in Birmingham on Friday, February 2S, at O'Brien's opera house. He is not only the greatest pianist living, but he is the great est genius in the way of piano playing who has ever lived. Rubinstein was a genius, but those who have heard both say he was not to be compared to Paderewski. Von Buelow, who died only a few years ago, was master of Beethoven interpretation and phenomenal technician, but as an all round virtuoso he could not measure up to Paderewsk. As for the other famous players they did not begin to be. in the Paderewski class. One great thing about the distinguished Pole-his playing satis- fies all tastes. Musicians are rapt when they listen to him and persons without musical education are "carried away" by his playing.
 In New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Chicago and Cincinnati Pader- ewskis audiences have been made up of musicians, amateurs and people who knew very little about music. But all applauded with equal warmth. Everybody in Ala bama will be>desirous of hearing Pader- ewski

 Mr Carnegie left here shortly before noon for a trip up the island. He was accompanied by few friends. Late in the evening he telephoned Colonel Page, the manager of the estate. MT.

GERMANY'S FLEET
The Pope's Organ Says it is Absolutely , Necessary

Berlin, February H-The evening papers print dispatches giving an extra from the Osservatore Romano, the pope's organ, which expresses an earnest hope that the reichstag will adopt the naval augmenta- tion bill as "the European situation makes strong fleet for Germany appear indis- pensable."
 The writer of the extract adds:
 1.-The centrists by no means ignore this and will come to an understanding with the government if the latter will give sat- isfatory assurance concerning the financial side of the question:"
 The Vossiche zeitung in printing the ex- tract says:
 "The German government has labored un- ceasingly at Rome and unsuccessfully. In the Rrussian diet today Baron yon Sedlitz proposed the separation of Berlin from the province at Brandenborg and the appoint ment of a special president for Berlin. The minister of the interior. Baron Rheinbaden, accepted the suggestion and promised soon to introduce bill making Berlin and the suburbs a province.

FRENCH VICTORIOUS
Forced Passage at Clip Drift and
 Occupies Hills

London, February 14.-d1:35 D. m1-Th. war office has issued the following bulle- tin from Lord Roberts received this after noon:
 Dekiels Drift, February 14.-S:1O a. m.- General French left this point at 80 yes- terday morning with three brigades of cav- alry. horse artillery and mounted infantry. including several colonial contingents, In order to seize a crossing of the Modder distant about twenty-five miles. He re. ports by dispatch dated 535 D. m. that he had forced passage at Clip drift and has occupied the hills north of the river; cap- turing three of the enemy's laagers with their supplies, while. General Gordon of the Fifteenth Hussars, with his brigade who har' made a feint at Rondevile drift four miles west, has seized it and a second drift between thatand Gift drift, together with two more laagers.
 General French's performance Is bril- liant, considering the excessive heat and bHnding dust storm which ragged during the latter part of the day.
 lowing to the rapidity of his movements General French met with but slight opposi- tion, and his losses were small Lieutenant Johnson of the Lniskillings Dragons is the only officer reported severely wounded
 'fThe Sixth division was last night on the right bank of the Riet at Wateryal Drift. and is moving to support the cavalry. The Seventh division Is here and will go on this afternoon.

GORMAN FOR BRYAN
Says He Will Certainly Support the
 Nebraskan if Nominated

Washington, February 14.-Ex-Senator German, who was at the capitol today for the first time since the present session of congress assembled, in an interview with a Post reporter, said that all his efforts here tofore had been directed against the re- nomination of MT. w. J. Bryan as the democratic candidate for the presidency. He believed it would not be wise, but that he was now convinced "that nothing can prevent dhis selection as the head of the democratic ticket. He certainly, added Senator German, "has the people behind him to a remarkable degree"
 Asked if he would support MT. Bryan if nominated, he replied: Certainly. I sup ported him in 1896. and shall support him again this year. I don't propose to desert my party"
 He expressed the opinion that his party's prospects were improving, saying that the Nicaragua canal and the Philippine prob lem were helping. the democrats. The pass age of the currency bill he also thought would help the democrats, because 1t would remove danger of free coinage of silver and bring back to their party the men who left 1t dn 1896 on the silver issue.

MIDDhING COTTON = BROUGHT S5 GENTS Local Spots Reached That Price
 Yesterday.
 SENTIMENT VERY BULliSH Some Factors Look for Still Higher Prices While Others Think Re-
 action is Due-Laws of
 Supply and Demand
SENTIMENT VERY BULLiSH

Good mhIdling cotton was sold for S12 cents in Birmingham yesterday, and while the market was not wild there was steady demand. Prices ranged from to slk cents, and while the latter price was reached, there are those who believe that a reaction is due, while others are talking 10 and Il cents for the staple.
 Local conditions are not different from the general situation, and are due to the strong demand from foreign buyers.
 The local factors are inclined to be con- servative and while some of them are very bullish, they name conditions which are thoroughly consistent with theories.
 Birmingham will receive this season about 85,OOO bales against 116009 last year, a fall ing off of about 3S per cent. The receipts so far have been about 75,OOO bales, leaving between 5000 and 10000 in sight.
 In speaking of the local situation yester- day w D. Nesbitt of the firm of Johnston, Nesbitt & Co. said: "I am one of few who believe that cotton has reached it's highest price and while 1t may go still higher I can not see what will warrant 1t for the present at least While the demand is strong, the buyers are limiting their pur- chases to their immediate needs awaiting the outlook for the new crop which will be tangible in a few weeks.
 "There is little doubt that a heavy acreage will be planted, and, with good stand, prices are bound to recede. Pres ent prices also have the effect of bringing out cotton several years old, which will add materially to the supply. Speculation may bull the market, but in my opinion present prices are high
 James B. Harris, manager for Sanders, Swan & Co.,, expressed the opinion tRat a reaction was due. He is also of the ppin- ion that consumers will hold off as far as possible until some estimate of thes new crop can be made. (
 Henry Howell of the Howell Cotton com pany is strongly bullish and says that cot ton will shortly sell for 10 cents, basing his opinion on the laws of supply and de- mand.
 Robert A. Terrell of Earle Terrell & Co., says that Il cents is possible while othsr dealers are equally as Abullish InI the meantime the producer. who is fortunate enough to have few bales of the feecy staple left over is chuckling with delight. while the fellow who has been to market is turning in the fence corners and is talk ing in a few acres of new ground.
