o. c. Genther'S JeweIry store Crowd
ed with Holiday Buyers.
The rush is on and o. G. Genther,
the jeweler, at 1869 Main street, is
doing the biggest watch and jewelry
business in town.
Mr.. Genther's stock is immense, and
is replete with all the many beautiful
things that make acceptable Christ
mas presents.
He is the only wholesale jeweler in
town, and his travellers visit the trade
in six States. By buying in such i'm
mense quantities for his wholesale
trade he is able to undersell any jew
eler in the State, and this is easily to
be seen by the rush of early buyers
at his store, eager for the great bar
gains now being offered.

Seeing the two men together, and

I am often tempted to wonder" re-
marks a Washington correspondent.
how Hay and the President ever came
TO be such stanch friends. It must be a
case of mutual attraction for opposites,
for two human beings more absolutely
unlike in temperament I never saw.
People sometimes express their aston
Ishment at the way the President keeps
his health under the burden he has
been carrying for three years. II he
took life as hard as Hay does. he would
have broken down long ago, for he has
helped TO bear Hays load and the load
OF seven others. beside that which the
Lord and his constitution have strapped
20 his individual shoulders, His secret
consists in refusing to let things worry
him. BY this do not mean that he Is
not sometimes annoyed. but he never

The people of Mississippi have met
the American Book company and have
come off second best. The uniformity
bill they had fondly expected to see
enacted into laws was similar to the
Tennessee bill, which cut in two prices
that the American Book co npany had
been exacting in that state. Prices Of
text books in both Mississippi and Ala
bama are doubled through a combina-
ton that consists in part of the Ameri.
can Book company and in part OF
teachers and county superintendents,
and the parents pay the freight. The
Mississippians thought thsy had elected
a legislature that would put an end to
the monopoly and all its exactions;
and their bill did go through the lower
house almost unanimously; but it
went through the house easily to en-
counter Waterloo in the senate
where the agents Of the American
Book company had done their work,
and laid their plans. When the bill
came up in the senate it was seen that
the leading educators of the state were
fighting in favor of two prices for text
books; and in support of their position
these educators brought forward q
great variety Of arguments, not one Of
which, was, however, worth the paper
it was written on. Many Of the leading
educators in all states are the agents Of
the American Book company and if
Alabama is ever to bs freed from the
prices Of monopoly, and is to have
text books on the terms that the peo-
pie of Indiana or Kansas get them,
the people of this state must elect
Legislators who will not listen to
leading educators. The aglt alton
In Mississ ppi goes over to another
legislature, two years hence, and the
American Book company will work
the state as one of its, richest fields in
the meantime It can make in the
intervening two years enough to JUS
tify very liberal outlay when the
next struggle comes on. --Birming-
