UNIFORMED KNIGHTS.
Catholic Order of St. John Convene
in Cincinnati

Cincinnati. June 24.-Fifteen thousand
uniformed Knights of the Catholic or
der of st. John have arrived here to at
tend their twenty-third annual con-
vention, which began four days ses-
sion here today.
The opening service of the convention
was held in st. Peters Cathedral, where
a pontiacal high mass was read by the
Rt Rev. Thos. Byrd bishop of Nash
vile, Tenn. assisted by Archbishop
William Henry Elder of the Cincinnati
diocese, and Bishop Camillus Maez of
Covington, the latter delivering the ser
mon. The attending Sir Knights then
marched to the Odeon, where the bust
ness sessions are to be held.
Among the important questions to be
considered are the amalgamatiOn of all
Catholic societies into a general or
ganizatiOn and the placing limitations
on the number of terms allowed for ma
tional officers. The Ladies' Auxiliary
also opened their meeting here.

CaptaIn Hobson's Promotion.

The people of the State are very lit tie concerned in the Sampson-Schley squabble, which remains unsettled, but are glad that heroism has at last been rewarded in Hobson's case. He has been advanced ten numbers, and Is now a captain in the construction bureau, where he Is outranked by only about four officers. The head of the bureau Is rear admiral, and in the course of retirements Captain Hob son will become the head of the bu- reau and an admiral by the time he is 45 years old. At present his rank is equivalent to that of a colonel in the army, his pay being s35oO with lib eral allowances.
 Nothing is too good for the young officer who at the call of his com mander took upon himself the leader. ship of desperate undertaking under the guns of the enemy. It was so des- perate and so daring that the enemy looked on in wonder, and he and his men escaped death, becoming prison CTS of war. To the end of American history this adventure will be told and sung, and long after the actors in it are gone it will keep their memories green. But Captain Hobson has no intention at present of leaving this world. He has long and useful ser vice before him, and he may yet stand at the head of the finest navy in the world,

Stands by the Book Trust

The Montgomery Advertiser says 1t will not discuss the uniform text bill. There is no need of it, for its views concerning that bill are made plain in its heated defense of the twenty three Senators who killed the bill as well as in its attack upon Superintend- ent of Education Abercrombie, and it's defense of the operating bill, and of the right of the Legislature to turn money paid in for school purposes to the general fund. These efforts. all in one direction, make plain enough it's school views. Nothing more is needed. The Advertiser goes on, how ever, to intimate that constitutional convention should be held even at the expense of the schools.
 What 1t really wants is return to the schools of fifty years ago, or some thing still further back, the farther back the better. The people of this State want on the other hand free schools, better schools, longer terms and cheaper school books, and The Age-Herald much mistakes the senti- ment of the State as it crops out in the county press and in the haste of candidates to crowd into the free school band wagon, if there is not hot indignation over the action of the leg islature on the text book bill, and de- termination to act up to that indigna- ton in the next general election. All the people cannot be fooled all the time, as the Advertiser will perhaps discover after a wnlle.

reference in part to an abatement of this evil at our doors, and Congress has done well in demanding guaran- tees and pledges as to a change In this respect. The administration canont be too careful or too stringent when 1t takes up this branch of the subject. The obligations of the Cubans towards cleanliness should fully meet their natural inclination to filth. They pre- fer dirt and smells, or rather they pre- fer laziness to work of any kind. The natives consider themselves immune anyway, and they do not propose to worry over the welfare of foreigners.
 Just how such a people can be in- duced to make their towns clean and healthy is indeed a problem. But if intervention hangs over them perhaps they can be induced to better the con alton of their towns, particularly of Havana, which has been a breeding place of disease from time out of mind. Cuba fibre is all right if 1t can be made Cuba sanitary. Cuba, clean and healthy, should be insisted upon at all hazards, and supervision of Havana's sanitary improvements should be re- served, for there Is no safety in Cuban supervision.

MIR. MoRGAN's SOFT SPOT.

Victor Smith, in New York Press.
 Every man has his tender spot, and the only way to manage him is to find it. Uncle Russell Sage has his, but keeps it concealed under a piece of pie or a ba- mana skin. For a good many years J. Pierpont Morgan's was collies. Then 1t was a maternity hospital. Then Is was his yacht, Corsair I. Then is was Cor sair II. Now it Is the New York Yacht Club. A few nights ago, when at pri- vate meeting of the club, a souvenir cup was presented him a slight token of affection and esteem, the great financier tugged right hard at himself before be- ing able to reply to the brief speech of Commodore s. Nicholson Kane. He spoke with much feeling of his love for the ganization, and for the first time in their lives many members noticed in his voice the merest suggestion of a culver. As one of them expressed 1t to me: "The old man surely was very much touched up. I never believed before that he had any feeling. The New York Yacht Club will never want for anything while J. Pierpont Morgan lives"

Cuban Towns to be Kept Clean

The Cuban conditions inserted in the army appropriation bill include, as they should, a demand that Cuban towns shall be severed and otherwise kept in a clean and healthy condition. The importance of this subject cannot be overestimated. It Is all-important to the Gulf States, and through them to the entire country. For Cuba, lying almost in sight of the mainland, Is the source of nearly all our yellow fever visitations. Its towns are. or at least were, unspeakably filthy, and in that filth under a hot sun the disease is bred and the germs of it transferred from time to time to our Gulf ports. thereby destroying hundreds of lives and costing millions of dollars.

us. They put on light robes of light tex ture, and one was kept for the unexpected guest who might come unprovided.
 Table napkins were of the utmost ne- cessity before the introduction of forks. and they served the purpose of a towel, when the general washing of hands took place, after the meal.
 Forks were first brought to the notice of Englishment by Thomas Coryate, treveler who tells us, '"The Italians can not by any means endure to havAtheir flesh touched with fingers. seeing all mems fingers are not alike clean"
 Dish covers were not alone used in an- cient times to keep the food hot, but as a protection. In wicked times when mon- archs were afraid of poison the cook tasted the food in the kitchen in the presence of a high official and the cover remained padlocked on the dish until it stood before the King.
 Toothpicks are little used in Italy. The explanation is that one of the Popes was poisoned by a medcated toothpick given him after dinner.

One Day More.

Tn another day the anti-school pro- lobby Legislature will be dissolved, but it will not be forgotten. Every time two prices are paid for a school book it will be recalled. A Senate that by vote of to 23 prefers the book trust of a distant State to the people of Alabama will not be forgotten. It will be recalled in every purchase, and if many of the twenty-three are re- called to legislative duties, then indeed it must be that high prices are prefer able to low prices.
 The truth is, many of the present Legislators count upon the power of court house cliques to keep them in politics, and also upon the indifference of the people. They yielded to the blandishments of the politicians that the trust summoned to their aid be- cause of these things. And if the peo- pie continue to be indifferent, they will have reckoned rightly.
 Turn the matter as one may, the responsibility for a continuance of high priced school books rests upon the people themselves. If they had sent up men to Montgomery like the young Senator from Jefferson the power of the trust over Alabama would have been broken. They did not send such men, and now they must pay ten cents for copybooks instead of three cents and for other school necessities in somewhat similar proportions.
 The voter need not attempt to get even by denouncing in strong language the men who voted in favor of the trust; it Is his own record and doing if he voted for one of those men. If he did he is responsible for what his representative did. He cannot shift the blame to the politicians. He must accept his own proper responsibility. He did it, and he must swallow it and the book trusts demands at least until election day comes again.
 In this connection we ask a careful reading of the views of the Chatta- nooga News:
 The book trust has proved entirely too strong for the people of Alabama, who are grooming under the high prices they are compelled to pay for their school books. An effort has been made in the General Assembly of that State to pass a uniform text book bill sim liar to the law now in force in Tennes- see, but 1t has been practically killed in the Senate. By vote of 23 to s the bill was sent to the committee carpen- ter shop, where 1t will In all probabil- ity slumber The book trust has been | very active in its opposition to the bill
 and the vote In the Senate falls as a | damper on the advocates of the reform. The people of Alabama, however. should not lose heart. Here in Tennessee the fight was wagered against the school book trust for number of years, but the people won. They will finally win | in Alabama, too. Once the reform is carried through the Legislature, it will become a fixture. The candidate for the Legislature in the State who would propose to repeal our uniform text book /! law would be very soundly thrashed at
