~TUPPENcE" GLADSTONE.


The house OF commons IS very humane
after all. It was in the very midst Of q
scene approaching something like party
fury-for the dying days of q session, with
their long hours and the heat and all the
rest, are always bad tempered-it was IN
the midst OF a scene of the usual kind
that Mr.. Herbert Gladstone walked up the
floor of the house of commons. The Irish
men were scowling at Mr.. Balfour. and
Mr. Flavin was hurting an epithet Of de-
fiance at the young Tory bloods who were
replying In kind. and Mr.. Swift Mcneil
was In a condition Of almost terrifying
ebullition-and ell OF a sudden 1t all stop
ped-and there rose from every part or
the house a ringing cheer. 1t was the
greeting Of every member to a colleague
at an suspicious moment in his life. The
unionists were even happier q few mo-
ments afterwards; for In the very first
division which took place, Mr.. Gladstone
went into their lobby. It was the first
victory Of the young lady that is to be
Mr.. Gladstone's better half; for she has
been q consistent Primrose Dame all her
days.
Mr.. Gladstone has always been a popu-
lar favorite. The men who are today his
parliamentary colleagues, and who for
the most part are his political opponents,
remember him with affection when he
and they were school boys at Elton. His
his illustrious father had just added two
pence to the income tax; and now ana
then, I daresay, he is called by that old
, affectionate name. This popularity is not
due need scarcely say, to his great IA
ther-schoolboys don't care brass far
thing for the paternity Of their fellows;
are rather. inclined to snub and dislike
the sons Of great men. It was due to
thorough manliness OF -character-cour-
age, sweetness, high sense Of honor-in
short to manlinesss
Just a little below the middle height,
with eyes and skin as dark as those or
a gypsy, Mr.. Herbert Gladstone has the
physical strength, though he has not the
height OF his father. He has the same
great width of shoulders; he has the same
fine muscular Developments his walk
slow, easy, firm-is that of an athlete, and
I would pity most men, even twice his
size. who had to face an encounter with
him. There is immense force. both men,
tai and physical, behind the angelic, ever
boyish and ever-handsome and gentle
face.
Mr.. Gladstone's main recreation is golf.
He has in his devotion to the game built
himself a house at Littlestone-the me-

south. In the orient we can find a ready
market for our surplus of raw cotton, as
we'll as our cotton fabrics, and the south
ern man who stands in the way of the
extension of our trade In that direction
is either short-sighted or willing to sac
rifce the best interests of his section in
order to be able to have false political
issue on which to ride into power. The
southern people have selfish issue in the
policy which is being pursued by our
government with respect to our trade in
the orient. The late president used his
best efforts in the field of diplomacy in
order to secure an increased demand for
the principal product which is grown
south of Mason and Dixon's line, The
Republican party of the nation stands
back Of President Roosevelt in his efforts
to carry out the policies inaugurated by
the late president-policies which mean
everything to the southern cotton planter
and it remains TO be seen whether south
.ern business men will in the future be In
duenced by the false teachings Of those
who have done the south so much injury
in the past
''The tactics Of men like Senator Till
man and their blind followers in South
Carolina and elsewhere have done much
to retard the progress which would other
wise have been made throughout our
southern section. 1t was only the other
day that Mr.. Tillman in public speech
delivered in the state of South Carolina,
threatened the cotton mill interests OF
that section in the event that those en-
gagged in that industry should undertake
to exercise the prerogatives of American
citizens by expressing themselves with
respect to public questions which vitality
affect their welfare as a class of people. "

NOT AGAINST RATIFICATION.
Men Quoted as Against Constitution
Declare They Will Support II.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Oct. 16.-The fight
for ratification of the new constitution in
Jefferson county, which is the largest in
the state, has become very interesting
one. g.
Henry B. Gray, chairman OF the county
campaign committee, Is in receipt each
day Of letters from gentlemen, whose
names appeared on the naturalization
committee, in which the gentlemen state
that their names appeared on the anti
ratification committee without their au-
thority and that they are for ratification.
Among these gentlemen are ]. G. Greener,
alderman from the first ward; John B.
Reed, a leading citizen ofOxmoorei Adam
Stewart, a prominent worker among the
laboring masses, and a number of others.
Mr.. Gray regards the activity of these
gentlemen in stating that they have been
wrongly classed as a superb indication or
the prospects of ratification In this county.
Congressman A. A. Wiley has come
across for ratification and numerous dates
have been made for him. There is not an
Alabama congressman who has thus Tar
planted himself against ratification. while
on the other hand, five of them are fight
ing hard for the measure. These congress-
men have the aid and assistance of Sena-
tor Pettus. who IS making number OF
speeches for ratification.
The campaign is rapidly assuming this
aspect: The ratincatlonlSts state that tney
represent the Democratic party and they
do as far as instructions from party or
ganization is concerned. The opposition,
although there are individual Democrats
in it of the highest Democratic repute,
has found 1t necessary to rely In great
measure upon the time-worn enemies of
the party for sustenance and material.
The ratificationists, in other words. have
put themselves in the position Of being
the opponents of the will of the Demo
cratic party and the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
are having a hard time explaining to the
people that they have any claim to Dem
ocratic recognition. Whether this division
of separation of ideas is just or not is
one question, but that it exists as mat
ter of fact is another and a very telling
factor in favor OF ratification.

Women,s Rates at Hotels.
Chicago Record.

Chicago RECORD.
At the old-fashioned inns and restau-
rants in Sweden it is customary to charge
less for women than for men, on the the
DRY that they do not eat as much. This
amuses people, but it is not so absurd
as the practice of charging half rates for
children in our own country. Everybody
who has had anything to do with healthy
boys or girls knows that they usually eat
twice as much as the average grown per-
son, and yet at many hotels they are
taken at half price. At some hotels in
Sweden man and wife are charged as
one and one-half persons if they occupy
the same room. A husband and wife may
travel as one and one-half persons by
railway and also by the post routes, fur
nishing their own carriage. On local
trains on most of the railroads there is
no first-class accommodation-only second
and third class. This is said to be po-
litical measure adopted by the dema-
gogues in parliament to emphasize the
theory of equality among the people. On
all through trains, however, there is at
least one first-class carriage. The rail-
way system Of Sweden covers nearly 5000
miles. About half the roads are owned
by the government, the remainder by pri-
vate corporations. The cars are comfort
able and well kept. and upon one of the
roads there is a dining car.

EoIIowLnn a Precedent.
Chicago Tribune.


Shortly after his wonderful campaign
against Geronimo, General Miles was
forced to travel a distance of twenty
miles through a wild country in an old
"prairie schooner" The teamster who
had been engaged to drive the wagon was
not acquainted with either the name or
fame Of his passenger, and. like most
teamsters, he was extremely careless Of
any ones comfort saving his own. He
seemed to Intentionally aim the wheels
of the wagon at every big boulder in the
road, much to the annoyance of the gen.
eral, who was bouncing around amid the
freight in the body of the schooner" like
a grain of popcorn in a cracker" Miles,
however, remained silent and watched
for the big rocks as the wagon approach
ed them and then waited for the shock,
as the wheels would pound over their un-
even surfaces like sail boat In heavy
sea.
Finally one immense boulder hove In
sight! The general was in a hurry, but
he hoped down in mis- heart that it would
take a wheel of the careless teamster's
wagon Nearer and nearer they APP
preached the obstruction in the road, and
then. Just as the driver dropped of to
sleep-the wheels missed the rock by a
sparse inch.
Nothing could equal the generals dis
appointment.
''Hey! Whoa!' he yenvd.

frightened driver. starting up. "Indians?"

The teamster did as he was ordered.
There was something in the mans voice
that precluded question or explanation.

much as Craze rock during the remand

Tuesday morning about 2

was a total loss, with no insur-

The total loss is estimated at
about $4,000 with $4,000 the to-

which acted as a barrier to the
