and another in Montgomery. The leading negro institution of this sort Is located in Richmond. It's name h. dicates the nature of it's origin and support. It is called "The Bank, Grand Fountain of True Reformers." ]" Under such name it is supernuous to add that 1t is strictly a negro institu- tion. But it is prosperous, and 1t be- longs in the American Bankers Asso- citation. Its capital is $SS,125, and it has a surplus amounting to $100,S9S It's profits last year were s215,50O. In Washington, the chief negro city in this country, if not in the world, Is prosperous savings bank wholly con trolled by negroes. Tennessee has a prosperous negro bank, and next month "The First Colored Bank North" will open it's doors in Philadelphia for business.
 At the Buffalo convention efforts will be made to induce negroes to organize bank to every 10000 negro citizens, The American Herald, negro paper thus explains the Buffalo meeting:
 We deem both the place and time ap- propriate for holding such convention. By virtue of the Pan-American Exposi- tion being held there the cheapest rail- road rates can be secured. The New York States Bankers Convention has just closed it's session there and we could en- joy the privilege of following in it's wake, and 1t would serve as the most brilliant and creditable exhibit we could make at a nations gathering. It would make the southerner pale in his attempt to dis franchise us, and the Northerner blush in his endeayor to keep us locked out from various occupations at the many trades and professions.

Dunn Done Down by eowf.

"You wouldn't suppose there would be any danger to a field mouse even in this fast-passing fad of society and people who imagine themselves society" remark ed a wayfaring man not a fool last night.
 "But gowf has nearly kilt (gowf Scotch) little Willie Dunn, who was professional gowf champion of England in 1894, and Is now engaged at the Innis Arden Gowf Club. near Sound Beach, Conn.,, town about like Toadvine, Jefferson County, Alabama. He is suffering from a slight fracture of the skull, the result of blow from a gowf ball. It was reported that he was resting comfortably at his home.
 Dunn was injured while on the course some time ago. A member of the club was playing we'll behind Dunn. Thinking he could not possibly strike him if he were careful, he swung back his brassey and brought 1t down in an easy swing at the ball. The ball flew nearly 200 wards, straight at Dunn's head. The blow was glancing and did not rob him of con- sciousness. A woman who saw the acci- dent bound up his head. It was not dis covered until few days ago that there was a slight fracture"

 The table shows that Alabama and Mississippi produced less lumber in 1891 than they did in 1890. This Is probably an error. The reporting mills in the two States produced less, but the entire product of the two States was undoubtedly greater, for the fiscal year just ended was year of prosperity in both States. When Georgia on the one side and Louisiana on the other cut more lumber, it is not probable that Alabama and Missis- sippi cut less.
 The census statistics include the cutting of lumber and timber, and when they are published an approxi- mate estimate at least will be furnish ea of the annual cut and consumption. It Is large enough at any rate. The Southern foresLs are rapidly disappear ing, and when they are gone all will regret that better system of forestry had not been established. It is crop that cannot be speedily renewed.

IAMoNr FOR PRESIDENT.

New York, July 18.-The recent visits of David B. Hill to the country home of Daniel s. Lamont, at Millbrook' near Poughkeepsie, have set Democratic polf- ticians to speoulating.
 William J. Stone, former Governor Of Missouri, was at the Holland House four weeks ago. It was his first appearance since last fall.
 'sSay. my son, what do you hear about Lamont for Governor of New York next vear?" asked the Missourian of g. re- porter.
 Mot word.'
 "Just keep your earfiaps pinned to your skull" rejoined MT. Stone. "and watch out" -A vs
 Since then MT. Hill has passed three Sundays at Colonel Lamont's country home, Millbrook.
 Colonel Lamont. in a running conversa- tion on general subjects, said last Friday afternoon before departing for Millbrook:
 "had very pleasant call from ex-Gov- ernor Stone of Missouri the other day. He's looking well, isn't he?''
 Colonel Lamont was not aware of ex- Governor Stones vaticination concerning himself and the governorship was not mentioned.
 Out of these recent happenings have grown a story to the effect that Lamont is Presidential timber, and would make an excellent man if nominated in 1904.

GREAT FIRES OF HISTORY.

From Leslies Weekly.
 The old worlds most calamitous fire was that which took place in London in 1666, which destroyed 14,0a0 buildings, laid 400 streets waste and rendered 100000 per sons homeless, the loss of life being 1.000 and that of property $40,00o.0oO. Mos- cows conflagration in 1872 consumed 5000 of the city's 10000 buildings. compelling 2o,000 of the city's inhabitants to sleep on the ground, destroyed 200 lives and $10,- 0O000o of property, and had political con- sequences which affected the history of Europe. It brought Bonaparte's Russian campaign to disaster caused retreat in the dead of winter in which the lives of 15o, 900 of his soldiers were lost, broke the spell of his invincibility, and melted the new combinations against him which eventually resulted in his overthrow.
 New York city had fire in 1885 which destroyed $2O, GOO 900 of property, and one in 1888 which inflicted 0 loss of $10.000,000, and this was followed il~< one fin 1S45 in which sS,0O0,00o of property went up in smoke. Pittsburg had a s6000, 900 fire in 1s45, followed by one in Albany which in- flicted a damage of 5000, 900 in 1S4S, and by one in St. Louis which destroyed S,- 900 900 of property in 1s49 San Francisco had two fires six weeks apart in 1851, in- fiicting O loss of s4,0ocOOO in the first and s3,0Oo,000 in the second The Fourth of July celebration in 1866 caused Portland, Me, the most destructive fire ever known on the American continent up to that time, except New York's of 1885. Portland's loss was $15,0O0, ,Ooo, like Jack sonville's.
 The two most calamitous fires ever known anywhere in the world occurred in the United States within thirteen months of each other In the first of these, in Chicago, on October S-s, 1871, the property loss was $2oo, ,Ooo, 900, and in the second in Boston, on November 9, 1872, sso0OO,OOO of property was consumed. In Chicago 100000 persons were left with out homes, and 200 were killed. Chica- go heads the list of the worlds destruc- tive confiagrations, but. as she had over BOO. 900 population in 1871, the loss In Jack sonville in 1901, with 2So00 population, is nroporttonately not very far below that of the metropolis on Lake Michigan.

strenuth of the Boers.

The struggle of the Boers is one of great bravery, but 1t is one that offers no hope. Even the hope of compro- mise through a prolonged guerrilla war is lacking, chiefly because England hopes to establish great empire in South and Central Africa, and the pres ence of independent Boers would be a menace and danger and constant source of irritation. That country must be either all Boer or all English. It is plain it cannot be all Boer, for .+hsre is not more non-progressive people in the world than the Boers.
 The best estimates put the fighting strength of the two republics at the outset at 5o.000 men. It is believed that achievements, chiefly from Cape Colony and Natal, came to them to the extent of 15,OO0. Of this total of 65,000 men the British forces say that all have been put out of the fight ex- cept 14,00O. Some are prisoners, some are on parole, many have died, some have been slain in battle, and many more are incapacitated by the hard ships of the trying war. These men are now conducting guerilla war, avoiding battle or even skirmish, and trusting to raids against lines of communication and the capture of sup plies. It is difficult to see how much is to be gained in that way. The Con- federacy did not adopt any such plan, and it is safe to say that none but the Boers would go on fighting without any chance of success.
 The risk they run of complete ami hilation as people is very great. The Boer influences in the Transvaal and in the Free State might be very great, as it long has been in Cape Colony, but if the struggle be protracted much longer the Boers will not have enough power left to make headway in peace against the new corners to their land of gold. It is a people that lacks po- litical sense. Their stubbornness does not let them see clearly and broadly the situation, and there is danger that there will be few left in the long run of the brave burghers who stood out agafnst a great empire.

Men Must Do Their Duty.

And He said unto his disciples, There was certain rich man who had a stew ard, and the same was accused unto him. that he had wasted his goods
 And he called him and said unto him, How is it that hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship, for thou mayest be no longer steward
 ''Then the steward said within himself. What shall do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship; l can not dig; to beg am ashamed
 ''I am resolved what to do, that. when I am put out of tho stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
 "so he called every one of his lords debtors unto him. and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?
 And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him. Take thy plil and sit down quickly and write fifty
 linen said he unto another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hun dred measures of wheat. And he said unto him. Take thy bill and write four score.
 And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: Tor the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.
 And I say unto you. Make to your selves friends of the mammon of unright- eousness, that when you fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations
 ''He that is faithful in that which is least Is faithful also in much.
 'Tf therefore ye have not been faith ful in the unrighteous mammon, who Will commit to your trust the true riches?
 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another mans, who snal give you that which is your own?
 .No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon."
 These first thirteen verses of the Six teenth Chapter of St. Luke, being the gos- pei for the Eighth Sunday after Pente- cost were read by the Rev. Father O'Reilly at the second mass In St. Paul Church yesterday morning, and the inn mortal lesson will doubtless impress It. self anew upon the people at this particu- lar period
 mrhe rich man was God" Father O'Reilly said, land the divine story or the steward is personally applicable to every one of today. It Is meant for you and me and every one of us, for God mas given every one a stewardship and He will require an account of 1t, inevitably.
 On that line the eloquent priest talked with great force and beauty. The dis- course lasted but few minutes. Low mass only Is celebrated during the hot weather, and sermons are in part sus- pended. The congregation at each mass in St. Paul's yesterday was large, in spite of the intense heat which prevailed throughout the forenoon.

Some eminent bankers of New York city are to be present and deliver addresses.
 d There are no national banks owned and managed by negroes, but there are . dozen or more state banks, and twice as many private banks that are con dueted by negroes for negroes. One prosperous bank is located in this town

President John M. Egan.

President John M. Egan of the Can tral of Georgia Railway and Ocean Steamship Company, who Is expected in Birmingham this week, Is one or the widest known and most popular railroad presidents of America. MT. Egan was formerly president and general manager of the Chicago Great Western Railway, and he has occupied many other places of distinction.
 As a railroad operator and contractor he has no superior, and he has also had much experience in traffic affairs. He was one of the principal men in charge of the construction of the Canadian Pa- cific Railway from Winnipeg west, and superintended the construction of several other Western roads.
 MT. Egan was born in March, 1S4S, in Springfield, Mass. He entered railway service in May, 1863, as a machinist's ap- prentice on the Illinois Central at Amboy, III. In 1869 he had risen to clerk in the engineers office of that road, and sub sequently served in various positions on the Northern Missouri road. In January, 1877, he had reached the position of chief engineer of the Southern Minnesota. In January. 1882, he was appointed general superintendent of the Western division of the Canadian Pacific. and had charge of the construction of that line.
 In 1886 MT. Egan was made general su- perintendent of the St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba, and in 1888 became general manager of the Chicago. St. Paul and Kansas City (now the Chicago Great Western). and in 1890 was elected presi- dent of this road. Tn 1896 he was elected vice president of the Central of Georgia Railway and Ocean Steamship Company, and year ago was promoted to the pres idency of these lines

 Athwart the sky. A flash of coiors that seem
 To blaze and die. Low msses of amber clouds Now separate anon in crowds, Ger the azure sky. The south wind softly blowing
 Where flowers grow wild. The sound of waters flowing
 Pure. undecided. The moclxine bird povrs forth his
 silvery note Till all the air is quivering and afioat
 With music sweet and mild. The trees on the banks bend low Ger the wJiters gleaming; The winds have ceased to blow
 All nature Is dreaming. Only the grasses bend and meet And with the noise of theif tiny feet
 The earth is teeming. A tree trunk covered OCT with moss
 Invites to rest; Thus nature covers every loss s
 With her hearts best Only to n1ah the evening brings Sad thoughts of those lost wings

In Prussia people eat salads. but the leaves of the lettuce are steeped in vine- gar and are generally unpalatable Their potato salads are mort toothsome. and they have a concoction of meat and pickled cucumbers, and another in which herrings form the chief ingredient, the former called Italian" salad. the latter ''herring salad. both of which are said to be palatable for a cold supper.
 But toward the end of the eighteenth century things were different in Berlin. In the best hosteries a special servant was kept to prepare the salad She dined at table, and when the salad bowl was brought in she took off her long white gloves. washed her hands, and prepared the salad with the utmost taste and grace, in presence of the guests. mixing the ingredients with her fingers in cleanly and appetizing manner.

A Legend of Hot Weather.

"one of the hardest things which suffer- ing humanity has had to bear during tho past forty-three days of intolerable heat yesterday was the forty-third day-was the inane and insanely silly question:
 " Is is hot enough for your"
 So said a man who suffered from yes terday's heat Proceeding. he said:
 T knew when was boy a brave and chivalrous gentleman of Montgomery who, according to reliable reports, had killed seven men for asking him on broil- ing hot days:
 :" Is it hot enought for your
 This man had a private graveyard out on the Carter's Bridge public road, in which he buried his inane and insane vic- tms, and at the head Of each grave there was placed granite slab set upright, Upon each slab was carved the suggest i've words:
 "Is 1t hot enough for YOU"
 Such a great public servant as that old-time gentleman of Montgomery could fill acres of graveyard in Birmingham!
 And some other good man might help him in his noble work by killing the men who introduce you to strangers by say ing:
