CONSUL STOWE TALKS.
South African War Drags Its Weary
 Length Along.

Length Along.
 London. Aug. 26.-Mr. Stowe, Consul of the United States at Capetown who is in London said today to a represen- tative of the Associated Press:
 T find myself mdrooned in London. Apparently every berth on steamers bound for America is taken till the end of September and I am anxious to get home. where can do away with official cares and talk as a private citizen. You know more in London about the mill tarv conditions of South Africa than 1t Is possible for any one to know at Capetown.
 While have resigned from the con- sular service. r@y resignation does not take effect until I reach Washington, hence it Is impossible for me to say anything. You can learn much more from returning officers than 1t Is possi- ble to learn from any one else coming from the Cape.
 "The South African problem is un- doubtedly difficult and complicated. The topography of the country and the mobility of the Boers whom the Eng fish columns are unable to pursue in- dividually. render operations most diff ficult The British are feeding many prisoners and providing for thousands of Boer families. all of which is very nice on the part of England. But in the meanwhile. the war drags on. There is a great future for South Africa when peace is secured. The surface of her mineral wealth is scarcely scratched. Undoubtedly England is prepared to solve the problem of reunification: but when that will occur certainly no per- son at the Cape is able to say"

Leslie's Monthly for September.

The opening article of Leslie's Monthly for September iR uron the art of photographing birds, written and beautifully illustrated by MT. A. H. Verrill, who Is himself past master of the art.
 Booker T. Washington, contributes an important paper on "How Work is Done at Tuskegec." It tells the whole secret of his success.
 A third article, which will be read by many people with astonishment and by all with interest, is an impartial account of the Whipping Post as 1t Is in operation in Delaware today.
 Nothing could be more interesting than the personal narrative of Aguinal- dos capture, written by Lieutenant Burton Mitchell, a cousin of General Funston's and a member of his stan. This remarkable episode stands out like the sun from the dreary annals of the Filipino war.
 For persons of a mechanical turn of mind, there is a curious story upon the Roller Boat descriptive of the strange craft, built like great cylin- der. which the inventor insists will roll to Europe in the face of the fiercest storm.
 The fiction of the number is notable It includes a capital story of the wilder West, "The Bad Man." by E Hough. ''To Herr" a story of sentI- ment. Hot Winds" a pathetic story and the amusing tale of a successful defeat entitled The Flight of the Victor" by Henry L. Mencken. Marginalia contains several brief and taking stories.

often been demonstrated that woman ls superior in handling 1t than any ten men reporters and In this capacity l do not know a writer on the Southern press who possesses the qualities need ed for this special work as does Mrs. deCottes. She has done a great deal of thls kind of work during the four years that she has been connected with The Advertiser and her splendid reports of the conventions held by Ala bama women have shown her great capabilities in @ field In which few wo- men are successful.
 Her accuracy, her clearness of ex- pression, the fact that what she writes can be relied upon. are all qualities that characterize her work. And while in reportorial work she is regarded as particularly clever, her work along other lines is bringing her distinction. She Is extremely original. and recently she began a series of articles on Types of Men," winch are pronounced not only witty and brilliant, but re- yealing a remarkable close study of human nature. |,
 Not long ago Mrs. de Costes charmed her readers by a series of articles In which she tock "Certain Types of Wo- men" for her subject and so cleverly did she handle it, ard so thoroughly that no "type'' was omitted. The ar ticlcs were widely read, and on more than one occasion she received re- que sts to "write up' a certain type. when as recently some one asked that in the series on types of men to include the perfect man"
 T am not writing of freaks" said Mrs. dc Cottes. ''but of types.'
 She Is one of the few Alabama press women who do daily newspaper work. and she is today one of the most rep- resentative newspaper women on the Southern press.
 She Is an unusually beautiful woman and is a brilliant and admired figure In Montgomery society. She Is quite tall and remarkably graceful. Her hair reminds one of Jane Hading, and she wears 1t simply parted and coiled. It Is very black with touch of grey that F's becoming to youthful faces. Her ey es are exquisite, very large and brown ard expressive. according to her moods, which are always happy. She has the whitest of complexions and a finely chiseled mouth. The contour of her face is perfect.
 She is brilliant in conversation and everything that she says Is character ized by an individual charm.
 Her success as a newspaper writer has emphasized her other charms, and she has proved that the Southern gen. tlewoman, with all her traditions and her environments. Is able to fulfill every obligation that goes with her profess sion and to meet every demand that journalistic discipline may make | upon her-this, to upon her l native heath where the lam guorous bloom of the jassamines | and roses invite 8 life of incidence in l direct contrast to that colder cline l which enwraps the Southern woman in the North.

Locomotiya Building.

Locomotive building" says Presi- dent Galloway, of the American Loco motive Company. "is sharing with all the other industries of the country in the great business boom. Last year there were turned out of the American shop 3.l53 engines, the largest num- Der ever built in the history of the country. The production showed an in- crease of $50 locomotives, or 27.b per cent. over the production of 1899, when the building record was broken. In that year 2,473 locomotives were turned out. In 1898 the American shops pro- duced 1875; in 1897, 1.251; in is96. 1.175. The export figures, taken in connection with this American production, are most significant. Last year there were sent abroad 505 machines. In 1899 we sent 514 abroad; in 1898, 554; in 1897. 3S6, and in 1898. 309. Of our entire produc- tion in 1895, 26 per cent. was exported. In 1S93, 30 per cent. went abroad; in 1899, q per cent Last year the export dropped to 16 per cent. of the produc- ton. These figures show with reason able elearness that the American man. ufacturer, within the last three years, has had very little inducement to go abroad for business.

 General Passenger Agent c. l.. Stone and the Passenger Department of the Lou isville and Nashville are due un- usual praise for this product of bright minds, in which no one could fail to find interest and pleasure.
 The booklet is the forerunner of a series of other such publications to be issued by the Passenger Department of the l.. and N. from time to time.
