London"
Less than three years ago a law was
passed by Parliament empowering munich
pal corporations 10 establish inebriate
asylums. The first 10 take advantage OF
this law was the London County Council.
Considering how much London needs such
places this was perhaps appropriate. AT
all events the L. c.. C.'s Inebriate Home
for Women has been running for two years
with results that are most gratifying. The
experiment by the Council of London has
led to the taking up of this work by the
Home Office of the general government.
II was found that in a small institution
conducted on a limited scale, inebriates
could not be classified sufficiently, and
hence could not be treated properly and
this conclusion the L. c.. c. out of its ex-
the national governemtn that It finally
forced that slow moving body TO action.
The really herculean work this Council
is doing in pulling down slum dwellings
and providing abodes in which the wage

decency and comfort will have to be treat

at this time that when all it's present

Advantage of a Liberal Education Of
Benefit Even to Sports.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
The value of a liberal education in al
most any line of commercial activity was
strikingly illustrated last night and the
incident should lead to provision in the
system of public education TO remedy ex-
listing conditions.
For some time it has been held that a
high school education was not necessary
for those who follow prize fighting as a
means Of livelihood. Last night il became
evident that this belief was a fallacy and
that a knowledge of geography and math-
ematics is essential TO the profession OF
the sport, and Will be so long as the Horton
law prevents mills in the local arena. As
early as 3 o'clock last night groups Of
sporting men began 10 hang over the tick
ers in saloons and other resorts frequented
by their ilk. Toward $50 they began to
grow impatient and questioned bartenders
a. 10 whether the tickers were working.
Not "A click came from the machines.
Toward 10 o'clock they were inclined to
think that the police had stopped things.
There was much debate over the matter.
Finally a meek little man in a ferocious
waistcoat suggested: "Youse blokes is
here. We gets il fresher and dey is tree
hours dead slow. Dat fight is pulled in
de carry morning hours. De Western bows

The gang went over 10 the bar and the
drinks were on everybody. About $3.50 they
began 10 get news.

on his way to his committee room he is as
sailed by questions and requests. There is
a big mail to be attended to before the
House meets, and much OF IL makes IL
necessary for him TO visit the departments
and the White House. When he has had
some experience he will know that most OF
these missions are useless, but he cannot
say this to the men who write TO him or
call on him, because they would feel quite
sure that he was merely ~selfsflly ignoring
their requests. He plods the weary round
of the departments and gets to the Capitol
at u:3O to find the hall Of the House full
at his desk until the floor is cleared ten
minutes before the House is called TO or
der. When the House is in session If the
business in hand does not require close at
tention he may be able to write some let
tiers at his desk. but in this he is liable
to frequent interruptions by visitors who
send cards to him by the doorkeeper.
His evenings and his holidays are equally
busy. There are almost always visitors
who take up the greater part of his even
ings, and some Of these are newspaper
correspondents wanting news for their pa

Almost always there is some one Of his
constituents in town demanding attention
at the lands of the man whom he thinks
he sent to Congress.
If the congressman is socially inclined,
and especially If he has a family, his Off
cial social obligations will eat up an hour
or two in every twenty-four. Afternoon
teas do not claim many congressman, al
though the Senate has been known to adj
5ourn early because of Mrs. Senator Blanks
reception. but evening entertainments are
frequent, and as many OF these are Of a
semi-ofhcial character the congressman
feels under some obligation to attend them.
Really 1t is a very hard life, as the new
congressman soon finds. If he is conscien-
tious he earns his 5000 salary and prob
ably more.
AS the Southern lawyer said to his fellow
congressman in the South: You and 1
could earn a heap more than 5000 practic-
ing law at home" But, as his colleague
replied: Five thousand dollars amt much.

Alabama's able Director is Mrs. Charles c. Brown of Birmingham. She has been indefatigable in her efforts to swell the contributions to this worthy cause, ana ures are yet so small, that mark the contribution, 1862 for Alabama. When we build a monument to our Chieftaln, Jefferson Davis, we honor the cause we share in this work. Will not each Chap ter in our Division contribute to this Some have already given-to this auG more. This monument will be unveiled dial invitation was extended to all Daughters of the Confederacy to be pres" ent for the unveiling ceremonies.
 The monument will take the form or an arch and will span the entire street on one side of the most prominent and his toric spots of the Confederate capital. Each State was requested to select an artist, who will furnish model toT tne arch or gateway, on or before March ist 1902. and from this collection se- lection will be made.
 The committee appointed to decide who originated the idea of the Daughters oI First President of the Y. D.: C., or Mrs. J. H Raines of Savannah. Ga. was ao- sent. The postponement or thls oeelslon to another convention was discussed; ous finally committed to three friends or each party and one person selected ny the President. This committee gave a ma jority report in favor Of Mrs. M, C. Goodlet of Nashville, Tenn. /
 The report of the Custodian of the Crosses of Honor was of especial interest to the Convention. beautiful work ot the United Daughters of the Confederdcy is honoring the noble and scared Nete- rans with this Southern Cross of Honor. The Emblem, Motto and Flower Com mittee reported through its chairman' Mrs Cantrill of Kentucky. A fve-point- ed star was determined upon as the em- blem and the motto was decided upon as Think, Love. Pray, Dare and Live. each word to occupy place at one Of the points of the star, In exclamation or their selection. Mrs. Cantrill said: ITO act without thought is folly; to act with out love is unholy: to act without prayer is not religious: all thought. all love, all prayer without execution is ineffective or cowardy; to live in flesh or in mem ory" This report was unanimously adopted. The cotton plant was selected as the official flower; its first bloom of white representing Purity; afterwards the red in the bloom stands for Blood; the pure white fruit of the plant stands for Truth.
 The election resulted in magnificent corps of officers, whose fidelity to the sacred cause and the pure love of all of it's principles. Is the paramount interest of their hearts. We are assured In these worthy hands, the work of our organi. zation will be taken up where left off by their honored and excellent predeces-
