haps we should say emphasis and sol emnity. In other words, judges are wanted in Georgia who are solemn and owl-like. It is just a question whether gowns alone convey this quail ity-whether the mind and soul, so to speak, of the judges should not be gowned with more learning and other adornments also.
 But the Savannah Press sees an other trouble. It wants to know where the new line is Io be drawn. "If," it goes on to say, the judges of the Superior Court are to be gowned, why not the Judges of the City and the County Courts? Shall they be de- prived of 1mpressment? Some of these courts are of very wide jurisdic- tion and in dignity and emolument are not behind the Superior Courts. And then there are the justices of the peace, are they to be without the hab- Ailments of high office? Cannot they use the ermine and the wool sack of the order? Sometimes the justices of the peace make more money than the judge on the bench. Why not let their honors be gowned or walk forth with all of the toggery and insignia of the inns of court? Nor should the recorders of the police court be left out. If the Atlanta Journal and the Augusta Herald start out to adopt the badge of office is the justice of the police court to be deprived of his bar gown?" Surely not. Our Judge Fea- gin should be gowned if any judges in the State are, for he needs impress ment' in wholesale lots for daily use.

Two Maidens of Birmingham.

Two fair maidens of Birmingham will feel something of personal interest and sorrow in the funeral of former Presi- dent Harrison, which will take place in Indianapolis today They are Miss Sara Elliott and Miss Carrie Cobbs.
 In this place the day after General Harrison's death there was reference to the fact that he was presented with flow CTS in behalf of the school children of Birmingham on the occasion of his visit as President to this town ten years ago and the question was asked, Who were the little maidens from whom the Presi- dent received the flowers and whom he lifted into his carriage and kissed?
 The answer is Miss Sara Elliott, daugh- ter of Mrs. Marie Elliott. and Miss Carrie Cobbs, daughter of Vice. President James B. Cobbs of the Alabama National Bank,

his music vows, whom the Queen de- sired Hamlet to marry-she was lad vised" out of her wits. There was rosemary then for remembrance and pansies for thoughts, until the gentle soul was waited away in the merciful stream to a land where advice of the earth earthy, is, we may be sure, sup planted by sights and sounds better fitted to end the heart-ache.
 The fate of motherless girls in the plays is in accordance with nature's plan, which seems to demand in such cases a counselor who is ever faithful, ever thoughtful, and the inquiry may well arise as to why that counselor was so often lacking. The theatres of Shakespeare's day would be odd in- deed to modern playgoers. Open at une top, except oyer the stage, pro- vided with no lights and beginning at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the best seats being three-legged stools on the stage; with no women in the green room, their places being taken by choir-boys from the nearest great churches; with few women in the aud ience-they certainly were unlike the piayhouses of our day, in which wo- men shine in box and tier, and win the chief triumphs of the stage itself The houses were built of wood, placed out side the city, summed by the best peo- pie, but frequented by the dandies of the times, who were jeered by howl ing, boisterous pit, chiefly made up of grooms, apprentices, and the toughest element of the city.
 These conditions did not invite the introduction by the playwright of voli- tionaI women parts, but they do not quite meet plays whose infinite vari- ety age cannot wither nor custom stale. We arex left to conclude that the dramatist needed the motherless girl, for he wrote for immediate effect, well as poet whose lines would not, because they could not, die. He need ed the girl whose only guide was her own affections, who could drift into dangers and thrilling situations, which took the place in those days of sympa- thetic and appreciative interpretations of women's parts. So perhaps, after all, the boy actor drove the mother off the Shakespearean stage.
 And yet the Shakespearean women are neither unworthy nor inferior when they are presented by competent interpreters in these days. Birming- ham audiences have witnessed and felt the power of Ada Rehan's mother less Kate in The Tanning of the Shrew, and they Will testify there is no coarseness in it, nothing essentially unwomanly Portia, also motherless, outranks her lover in every respect She is better, brighter wiser and rich er Motherless Jessica could out night her Lorenzo in singing praises to the moon. There could not be a woman Hamlet, either with or without a mother, simply because the poets art and his profound knowledge ot the human heart forbade such an unsym- metric creation to be squeaked by lit tie eyases Ion the top of question"

 St. Patrick's Day In the Morning.
 This is St Patriclt's Day in the morn ing, and, as every Irishman in the beau tiful Isle of the Saints will say, God bless you This apostle and patron saint oi Ireland, one of the most renowned or all the saints in the calendar of the Roman Catholic church, bore the baptlsmai name of Succat which means brave In battle. He was a captive and therefore virtually held as a slave by the name of Cothraighe, and later was called Mag onus, or Imogonus, or Maun. When he was ordained q priest he took the name Patricius. The date and place of his birth have long been disputed. lie says of himself, in his immortal Confessions, that he was born at ,"Bannayem Iaper- niae," which many learned writers lden- tify with Kirkpatrick. a village near Glasgow, Scotland. He was born about the year 372, A. D.: was captive ana slave of the King of Dalaradia in ireland from 3SS to 395; escaped to Gaul, and was there ordained as priest and bishop; re- turned to Ireland, this time mission ny in 432 and died at about the age or sS at Saul, near Strangford Lough, County Down Ulster, where many years before he had founded his first church, on March r, 465, the day now sacred to his memory.
 Thus today is the fourteen hundred ana thirty-sixth anniversary of St. Patrick death, and still this name is powerful 10 piety with three hundred millions or Christians of the white races of men!
 Ireland is the beginning of his career was divided up amongst a great numoer of petty tribes, all pagans, and so com pletely did St. Patrick convert all the peo- pie to the religion of Christ that to this day that country is called "the island of the saints" The method he employed was dealing gently with all the tribes. lie first converted the chieftains, and then their followers.
 On St. Patrick's Day Irishmen the world over wear sprigs of green, the beloved shamrock, if it can be obtained. In Ireland all the people wear shamrock. and a stranger walking in the streets of Cork, say, unadorned by the green plant, will not proceed far before some kind and laughing soul will stop him and stick bit of the cherished shamrock in his buttonhole; and the kindness is done so sweetly and gently that the visitor never forgets it.

mingham district will ever be closed Steel Company at Newport. Ky. Tho plants here must be operated to produce freights for the railroads. The shutting down of these plants would deprive the railroads of 80 or 90 per cent of their ton mage. So there need be no fear that when the great combination. which is gradually extending its arm and taking in new properties, is completed that 1t will close down any of the plants herc- abouts. Instead of closing down I pre- dict that it would extend these plants and build many new ones.
 I rather think that the Constitutional convention to be held in this State i, May will be composed of many of the ablest and brainiest men in Alabama Sc far the counties have seemed to select their very best men. The delegation from Jefferson, for instance, is strong one and the men who are candidates from the State at large are recognized as the leading men of the State. They are men ol sufficiently broad cal1bre to make constitution which will be to the very best interests of the State and its busi- ness.
 have heard it said that the convention which meets in Montgomery this week to nominate delegates from the State at large will endeavor to pass resolutions instructing the constitutional convention on several questions. This would be pre- sumptuous. The constitutional conven- tion being representative of the people will become the highest power in the state. Delegates to the same are sup posed to know what is needed and what the people want and they should not be hampered by any instructions whether they be those given by the Legislature or by the State convention. The delegates to the constitutional convention should be free and untrammeled. They will make the constitution they think best. Then if the people of the State don't like it they may by vote decline to accept it.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR,
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press
 The average woman would rather ad- init to disappointed love affair than q bald spot.
 There is generally a lot of fun in the girls that think 1t Is such nonsense to think they have to have chaperones.
 The only reason why man ever asks a woman-to marry him is because ho thinks she isn't like other women. s-
 The women have not invented mourn ing" stockings, but they still think it is a terrible thing for a man to show his socks.
 Every man who Hikes a particular wou- an is in the end expected to worship her or else do something that will make her stop liking him.

turf, 1t gathers diamonds of the night to brighten it in the hours when the world is asleep, and sunbeams to cheer it whilst the world rushes the mad pace of sun bright days, and so it blossoms in mod esty and sweetness and the divine quality of gentleness, thing to soothe and bless and be cherished in all the fitful changes of life, with life's accomplished deeds and defeated purposes, its rejoicings and its disappointments.
 The rose is the flower of gods and mad men, the queen of rampant and riotous passions that burn to nothing by the fires of their own creation, and leave nothing but the cold ashes of deserted hearth stones. the poor dust of forgotten tryst- places; but the violet loves and lives on, is unpresuming and unafraid, and is not swept into the rubbish heap of for getfulness.
 So with the young gentlewoman, the sweetheart of many a strong mans de- votion. who finds no use for announcing heralds, or for banners and bands and motley crowds of shouting retainers; who doesn't desire and will not accept the plaudits of the public prints or the poor pictures that seek to place her amongst those whom fashion apes and upon whom f1atterers fawn
 Virtue like hers does not seek fools for followers or knights in fustian to dance attendance. The merit of her list is not measured by the number of-names upon it, nor her place in society by the fre- quency of her appearance in public places with things in dresscoats. She chooses her place, and whoso comes within its marked lines shall bend the knee as courier to an empress. She is not to be purchased by tickets to immoral plays or by books that are foul; she will not witness such plays and will not read such books.
 She Is a woman, this violet in the gar den of womanhood, not funmaker for fools, nor a figure in the comradery of questionable morals and risky situations; not a companion in the ribaldry of the gilt and tinsel stage of improprieties, nor an associate in the greenroom of scandal mongery and loud vulgarity.
 She is a woman pure and true, loving and laughing, hoping and trusting, God guided and praying, this violet of the worlds society, my beloved.
 
 So, in the mating-time of birds in wood and field, men and women make for the marriage-time that shall come with springtime's blossoming; and it remains true that all the world loves a lover, and all the world likewise loves the lovers be- loved.
 The loves of lovers, when they make for the blessed sacrament of marriage transcend in purely human interest all other affairs of mankind; and the reason is not far to seek, for every soul in the world is or has been personally interested in some love affair.

casioned mainly by the inability OF the

repairs to the shaft was also partially
responsible for the delay. The Peking

Limits Of the harbor .

The New York Tribune calls this an
era of great ships and looks forward
to time not far away when ships
1000 feet long with corresponding
depth and breadth will be built, and
insists that New York harbor, which
it believes is to have more commerce
than any other spot shall be prepared
for the coming of the future great
ship, with sufficient depth OF water
and appropriate wharves Maybe the
big ship is yet to be, but the average
harbor would indicate a limit in ship
building. The Tribune remarks that
the great exploits of men at sea have
as rule been in little ships, and cites
the ships of Columbus, CABOT and Vas
co da Cana. They were but forerun-
gners, skirrnish line sent out IN ad-
vance. Now the commercial age is on,
