 Inland Waterway to New Orleans.
 ''This brief statement of an odd enter prise Is suggestive of great things for Bir- mingham,' said developer yesterday;
 " Tn a small steamboat, built expressly for the purpose. eight Chicago families, numbering twenty-four persons, have em- parked on a journey to Mobile, Ala, where they will settle on tract of land near the Fish river. The steamboat VIII go through the canal to La Sale and then into the Illinois river. At Pretoria It Will take on a pilot, who will guide 1t down the Illinois and Mississippi rivers It Will go out the South Pass of the Mississippi through Lake Pontehartrain. the connect ing inland waterway to Mobile It will be used as a freight and passenger steamer on the Fish rfver'
 " The connecting inland waterway to Mobile from the Mississippi is of splendid significance to Birmingham. as the Age Herald has repeatedly pointed out for when the Warrior river improvements now being energetically made are com pleted. and certain further comparatively slight improvements are made on the in- land waterway. by the gulf, coal and pig iron will be shipped to New Orleans rom the Birmingham district at such low rates as will place Birmingham in command Of some of the most desirable of all foreign markets. The day for this is near, and within five years after that route is open ed Birmingham will have quarter of million peopleP'

The Friction rhat Causes Fires.

Assemblyman Otto Kelsey. who is one of the receivers of the Manhattan Fire Insurance company. was in the office of the adjuster of the company the other day when farmer from the extreme end of Long Island came in and began in- quiring about claim he had against the company for barn that had been de- stroyed by fire relates New York news paper. At the conclusion of his argument he said: sYou folks ought to pay that claim It's an honest one. My wife and myself having talked it over, and we can't find any reason why the barn should have burned We had no hands around at the time and no tramps wander down our way at that time of the year. So we would like to know the reason it caught fire"
 The adjuster. who had apparently given the matter some previous attention, said: T guess 1t was friction
 .'Friction?' said the old man. "what kind of friction?"
 ssThe kind that comes from rubbing a $seoe policy on an $500 barn." replied the aijuster,

 Congress appropriated sf.eOo.eoo two or of Justice'-not a court building. but an attorney generals office-upon one flank of the white house. Mir. Griggs would not build 1t.

 By what authority a servant of Com greFs refuses to apply an appropriation to it's object is only explainable upon the view of the decline of Congress as a sovereign power. It has been the fellow. boarder of the Supreme Court upon the hill for a century. and the sundering of that relation will be like school girls who, graduate and go apart. promising to write to each other but they write once or. twice and are married elsewhere.

Trom inc Kansas City World.

From the Kansas City World.
 The attention of the New York Tribune and some other papers of the North and East which so frequently and freely as- sail the South because the black men who assault white women are lynched, is directed to the fact that two rape fends were saved from the inobs Wednes- day night in two widely separated South ern towns. We do not. however, expect that the occurrences will receive as much attention from the class of papers referr- ed to as they would had the men been lynched. In Charlotte, N. C., a negro was saved by the sheriff, who put his own life between his prisoner and the averaging mob. The man was saved. At Tuscaloosa, Ala, another negro charged with a like crime was saved by his guard.
 These things happened in black com munities The guilt of neither man was in doubt-at least from the point of view the mob. It Is practically certain that the men who saved the wretched crimi- nals from hanging. or q worse fate. will be made to suffer socially. perhaps polit- ica1ly, in their respective communities. Perhaps their zeal was not altogether commendable from the point of view of the man or woman who knows the hor- TOT of having brutes like those saved going about. We are not sitting in judg- ment on the officers or the mobs, for we have no other feeling than that of com mon humanity with the whites fin the black belt
 We merely call attention of the northern press, or that section of 1t which makes political capital out of Southern lynch ings, to the fact that Southern sheriffs are not unwilling or afraid to do their duty. And these men did their duty at cost that cannot be known to us who live remote from a country where ven- genance too often takes the place of law and justice.

Pleasures of a Woodchuck Hunt.

MT James Wilson. Secretary of Agri- culture, though a Scot by birth. passed a part of his boyhood in New England, and he loves to go back there now and then to see how the country looks. says the Saturday Evening Post. He said to re- cent visitor:
 "The New England farmer has a pretty hard struggle to make a. living from the soil but there is charm about life amid his hills which no one can resist. Where he cannot raise crops he can at least raise wild animals.
 'T was travelling through New Hamp- shire some time ago on my way to de- liver an address when, looking out of the car window, I saw a boy trying to cap ture a woodchuck which had taken ref uge in a hole in the ground and WAS showing fight.
 It fairly made my heart leap again as it used to when I was lad. If I had owned the railroad would have thrown business to the winds and ordered the conductor to stop the train and hold 1t till could get off and help the boy catch that woodchuck.
 T wonder if he ever caught it," he added, dreamily. after pause.

A Plaque of Mosquitoes.

Connected with or disconnected from the present period of August rain, which rainfall has never been equalled in this season of the year-the precipitation for the twenty-two days of August being over one-fifth of the entire yearly average during the past ten years-is the unex- ampled plague of mosquitoes
 l. Clouds of mosquitoes are infesting Bir- mingham. Whence they come, how, why no man here knows It should arrest the attention of men of science, for swarms of mosquitoes in the valley Of Birmingham are unprecedented and call for investigation.
 There is probably not one residence in fifteen occupied by weIl-to-do persons in Birmingham in which a mosquito net been heretofore common, never trouble some, in this valley.
 Therefore comes the interesting ques- ton, whence comes the present "epi- demic" of mosquitoes? The pestiferous insects began to swarm in this valley about ten days ago, or about ten days after the unusual rainy season set in Now, there are vast swarms of them all over the city, in every lighted place and every dark one. Under the electric light where persons may be gathered. the pests are plainly seen-clouds of them!
 This species of mosquitoes Is practically noiseless. whereas the mosquito occa- sionally seen in Birmingham is the noisy pest, the buzzing of which is worse than its sting.
 It is commonly accepted that only stag nant or foul still water can breed mosqui- toes. If that be so, whence come the myriads of noiseless mosquitoes now in Birmingham, and why did they come in the middle of the rainiest August period recorded in the history of this valley?

Walter Hawley.s New York Life.

''Walter L. Hawley. formerly a mem- Der of the staff of the Age-Herald, but who for ten years past has been on the staff of the New York Evening Sun. has become one of the most popular and fn- fiuentiai Journalists of New York city, " said former Mayor Frank V. Evans, who returned from the East this week.
 "As president of the Association of City Hall Reporters, MT. Hawley devotes the hours of 10 a. m. to p. m. to newspaper work, then goes to his delightful home in One Hundred and Twelfth street. and in his library there spends his hours in general literary work. He Is a contri- butor to some of the leading magazines of America and from this class of work receives handsome rewards.
 MT. Hawley is always assigned to po- lftical work during campaign months. and enoys the conffdnece of the Sun as an excellent statisticfan and infallible prognosticator. Weeks before the last campaign he made tour through all the Western States and foretold the result of the Presidential election in precise fig ures as the electoral vote.
 "Mr. Hawiey enjoys a beautiful home life. Two of his boys have grown to splendid young manhood and occupy hon. orable business positions. while the two younger are pupils of the city schools. Mrs. Hawley, formerly Miss Sarah Moses of Sheffield and Montgomery. is a charm ing woman. and a dutiful helpmate to her husband in his successful literary work"
