between Ruhlin and Joe Acton, wrest-

Since glove contest have been tabooed

weeks ago, Ruhlin defeated Fitzsim-
mons at Madison Square Garden in
two straight falls, after clever exhi
bition. Ruhlin i open to all either
for wrestling or boxing, and his main
purpose in coming TO the coast was to
arrange for fight with Jeffries, who
ever since he fought a draw with Rub
lin two wears ago has consistently
avoided him, the latter says.
Madden declares that he met JeifreS
in ST. Louis early in March and agreed
upon fight, all details being arrang-
ed save the date. The referee was even
agreed upon. Since then. Madden has
been unable to get any satisfaction out

The True Life After Death.

The death of MT. Lorenzo S. Brown, Jr., in Washington Sunday was peculiarly sad. He was a son of MT. L. S. Brown, general agent for the Southern Railway at Washington, D. C., and a young man of remarkable brilliancy of mind. He was a graduate from tho University of Vir- ginia, held a certificate from Harvard University, and was student at Johns Hopkins University in the medical de- partment, where he contracted consump- ton, of which he died.
 Ills funeral took place Tuesday in At lanta. from the residence of J. H. Gar ner, Bishop Warren A. Candler of the Methodist Church conducting the serv- ices. Interment was in Oakland ceme- tery.
 MT. l.. s. Brown, the father of the young man, is one of the best known railroad men in the country. He has many friends throughout the South. many of whom dwell in Alabama and are resi- dent in Birmingham. The father is a right well beloved man, one worthy of the extraordinary public confidence and affection rsPQsed in him-a noble kind of la,.ef-day Roman batter. fully worthy and honored to rear sons to the public serv- Ice.

Nevada is a Boominu State.

In the days of the civil war Nevada was made State on account of gen. ersl political reasons. It is chiefly composed of rocks and deserts, and in 1880 its population had decreased to 62,000, to fall again to 45,000 in 1890, and still again to 42,000 in 1901. Jeffer- son County contains enough people to- day to make four such States as Ne vada was when the census was taken.
 But change in Nevada affairs has occurred, and the State is now in a booming condition. A penniless Ger man musician of Reno struck gold ore so rich near that town that a big min ing boom has been started, and miners are flocKing in from all points of the compass. Claims have been staked out for miles around, and at Steam boat Springs, thirteen miles from Reno, new city has been mapped and planned. Reno itself has been doubled in population. A permanent mining population seems assured that viii lift the Sagebrush State out of the dismal rut into which it had fallen. Politically it had become San Fran cisco's rotten borough.
 All will be glad to see the only fail ure of the union lifted up and rehab- ilitated. Where an American State be- gins to dwindle there is grumbling within and without. The big States do not like such a condition, and the decaying State becomes by-word and reproach that is deeply felt at home. The new mining field may restore Ne yada to an honorable place in the list of States. It may give her a popula- tion by 1910 that will outrun Idaho's or Wyoming's or even little Delaware's.

have voice in primaries or at the polls next year, must pay poll taxes for the year 1901. The constitution expressly says the poll tax of 1901 be- came due and payable on October l. and likewise of all subsequent years. This poll tax should be paid by all be- tween the ages of 21 and 45 by or be- fore February 1, in order to vote. The payment of the tax is matter of rec ord, and no one can vote who has not paid it. His receipt will be demanded at the polls, ard tho vote of a voter who has not paid his poll tax cannot be legally counted, and can be thrown out if 1t is counted. The rule is im- pcrative, and there is no way to evade this condition imposed by the new con- stitution.
 The tax is $1.50 year, and all poll taxes, including that for 1901. must hereafter be paid in order to vote. True, the poll tax cannot be forcibly collected, but no man who is half a man will evade the payment for the benefit of the public schools of one dollar and fifty cents year, especially when such a payment admits him to the electorate of the State. Pay, then, your poll tax when you pay other taxes assessed against you. Pay 1t any way and receive receipt certifying that 1t has been paid. No one can pay your tax for you. It must be personal act, and that personal act should be per formed by you by or before February i next,

BIRMINGHAM AND vIcksBURG.

From the Tuscaloosa Gazette.
 In a recent issue the vicksburg Herald had an editorial on the subject of the Birmingham and Vicksburg, the proposed railroad which, passing through Tusca- loosa, will reach from Birmingham to the great Mississippi river at Vicksburg. In the course of some comments on the advantages of the proposed road, the Herald has this to say, which should be carefully studied by the business men of Tuscaloosa:
 "A road direct to Birmingham is not quite so essential to Vicksburg as to Tuscaloosa, but its advantages in the increase of competition would be incal- culable. As trade avenue the field to be added to the city's opportunities for ex- tension of trade may be judged in the following from a letter whose writer was with the surveying party: "A thorough examination of the profles to this point show the route to be the best in the South, and the engineer in charge of the survey. who has grown gray In the ser vice and surveyed lines in half the states in the Union swears enthusiastically that It is beyond all questions the most de- sirable line he ever surveyed
 No abatement of Vicksburg's interest In this road ought to be permitted. It should on the contrary be kept alive and quick to respond to all occasions for pro- noting the progress and success of the road to Birmingham"
