Most people in Birmingham hope that both MT Well and the Herald are mistaken; but that is another matter
 
 Former Governor Oates makes a Mont gomery newspaper say, or the newspaper makes the former Governor say, that 'Emmet A. O'Neal of Lauderdale" was one of the Governors of Alabama, and Governor Thomas C. Jones of Montgomery defeat ed R. F. Cobb for a second term" Who is R. F. Cobb and when was he a candidate for "a second term? When was Emmet 0Neal Governor of Alabama? He is worthy of that or any other honor his people can give, but he has never sought the Governor ship.
 Thomas D. Hannon and J. R. McMaster, two of the best men in Montgomery, where many good men dwell, have died within the past three days, and Montgomery Is very greatly the poorer in manly worth.
 Tom" Hannon was nobly brave in many battle of war, and in long years of physi- cal suffering he displayed fortitude and courage of the highest order. He was one of those great-good-hearted men who en- rich the world with the higher qualities of humanity. Ills cheerfulness and good na- ture, his kindly sympathy, never forsook him till life itself was gone. The other day Colonel Falkner took General Wheeler and Lieutenant Hobson to call on Captain Han- non. They were not permitted to see the suf- ferer; it was the day before he died. When he was told that the three distinguished men had called upon him, he said with spirit:
 GO tell Jeff Falkner to bring Wheeler and Hobson to see me tomorrow, and if am alive I'll see themi"

THE MOST MODERN SAFE BREAKER

From the November Pearson's.
 The most modern and most complete of all safe-crackng appliances consists of a horseshoe, or, more correctly, magnet shaped piece of the best steel, pierced at the apex and both ends for stout screws. It is so made as to slip down back of the spindle of a combination lock, and has what one might call its "delta." so narrow that the knob of the handle overlaps both legs of the magnet It is slipped into po- sition in a moment, the screws are turned a little at time, alternately, against the body of the safe, forcing out the magnet and with 1t, of course, the spindle. In sixty seconds the spindle can be forced from the strongest lock. A chisel that fits the aper-

THE CELLO

By Ella Wheeler Wilcox. While the bass drums boomed like thunder
 And the music fell like rain, And the air was rent asunder
 With a jubilant, martial strain-- The Cello seemed talking under
 Its breath like thing in pain. . And I questioned: 'Why, O Cello
 Are you dipping your notes in tears When the joyous voice of each fellow
 About you is charged With cheers. And the stern old World grows mellow And glad with the strain it hears? Then the 'Cello's voice, replying,
 Said: Mine is the grief alway To remember the dead and the dying,
 While happier comrades play For ths victor with banners flying,
 And the living who gained the day

Its every pledge fulfilled. 1t has
the largest membership, the best
methods and the most equitable
laws. 1t extends fraternity /" its
members, and protection to their
loved ones
Simple in its form of government,
Just in its administrations, economi-
cal in it's expenditures, it has earn
ed the proud title of "The Oldest,
the Largest, the Strongest and the
Best" And although more than
thirty years have elapsed since its
organization, the present is hut the
dawning of its usefulness and pros
perity.
1t is neither sectarian nor politi.
cal; it welcomes to its ranks all
good men between the ages of
twenty.one and forty-fve years,
who are physically qualified.
III YOU are not a member, ask
yourself the question, "Why2" II
the fret answer is that you cannot
afford it, count the cost, and con-
slider we'll whether you can afford
to be q member. You have some
one dependent npon you, either di-
rectly or indirectly. If you have
a wife and children, or either, you
cannot deny that you owe at least
the duty Of providing for them
against that time which may come
all too soon, when your hands are
stilled by death. There is no way
that you can make that provision,
so sure. so safe and go effectual, as
by membership in the Ancient Or
der of United Workmen.
If you have neither wife nor
children, there are others who look
to YOU as the staff and rod upon
which they may lean if storms OF
adversely should come. The father
and mother, through whose tender
care you have been able to reach
proud manhood, have claims upon
you. They may to-day be surround
ed by every comfort-m"y even
be enjoying affiuence and luxury,
but how often "riches take wings
and Ay." The little investment
which you will make each month
may sometime be the means of saw
ing those loved ones from becoming
dependents upon public charity.
A loving sister may depend upon
YOU for aid in life's rough journey;
or perhaps brother whose burdens
you may share. would fall, II the
part now borne by you rested on
him alone. Don't let these loved
ones depend upon broken reed,
but give them the stout oaken staff
granted through membership in
the Ancient Order.
The sum of two thousand dollars
ia assured at a cost in assessments
Of but five cents per day for work
ing DAYS in each and every month.
If YOU cannot afford that, join'the
balf.rate class, and obtain protection
for at least one thousand dollars, at
a cost of two and one-half cents for
every working day. Do this for
others. And join the Ancient Or

these persons to be assured by n COM
petent authority that they have been

Prof. Wiley Of the Agricultural De.
partment, who has been helping the
Senate Committee on Food Adulter-
ants in its Investigations. rebukes the
alarmists who have asserted that near.
~ all food products for sale in the gro.

He says: "You may select hundred
samples of food. bought Mt random in
the public market. and you will find
that hardly 8 per cent. Of them are
adulternted." He says further that
''there Is little or no adulteratiOn of

lessor does not deny that there are
some adulterations-nota all injurious to
health, however-and he is In favor of
the enactment Of pure food law whic
shall prohibit the use of harmful adul-
terants, and which shall give notice to
consumers when harmful ones are
used, SO they may know they are buy

not fancy they are buying butter. An

sumers. When they make purchase
