REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

From the New York Press.
 People get engaged from force of habit; then they get married from force of cir cumstances
 If married people can hang on for the first five years. generally they can stand it for the rest of their lives.
 About the time man gets back from his wedding trip he shuts up talking about what good judge of character he is.
 All man has to do to make his wife ask him suspiciously what he is thinking about Is for him to sit still for ten min utes and keep his mouth shut.

Mr. Troy for Attorney General.
laid a public man iast nIght

Said a public man last night:
 "It Is authoritatively stated that Hon. Alexander Troy of Montgomery will be a candidate for attorney general before the State Democratic convention of 1902.
 MT. Troy has been the secretary of the Alabama State Bar Association ever since 1t was organized, some two and twenty years ago. and without doubt he is personally acquainted with and enjoys the friendship and esteem of more law yers than any other man in the State And there is a multitude of men not in the law who hold Mir. Troy in dear re- gard
 Mir. Troy has achieved marked success in law and enjoys large and valuable practice. If chosen attorney general he will fulfill to an enviabie degree the re. quirements sought by Delegate Jones oi Bibb County to be incorporated in the new constitution-that the attorney gen. erai shall be a man learned In the law And as the occupant of the attorney generals office. MT. Troy's charm of manner and graciousness would tend tc lend an air of amiability and scholarship to the entire Capitol"

Joe Brown Lowed to Keep It.

Towards the end of one of Joe Brown 8 terms as Governor of Georgia the poli- clans became very anxious to know just what he intended to do respecting the next term in that office" said Charles B.. Simmons, the wholesale grocer of Bir- mingham, who fig a Georgian.
 These politicians stood somewhat in awe, If not fear, of the willy man or judge ment.' and none of them dared to speak to h.m directly, to the extent or asking his intentions respecting the Gov ernorship But becoming impatient. they determined to try to find out old Joe's' purposes through the women.
 'To this end great reception was given in one of the biggest residences in Peachtree street, in honor of Governor and Mrs Brown. The big house was thronged by Atlanta's fashionable socie- ty. and from the arrival of the Browns until -.leir departure the women In the little political plot crowded about Mrs. Brown and paid her every possible atten- ton, anticipating her very wishes and praising Old Joe
 Toward the shank of the evening, when the fair plotters considered that they had sufficiently impressed Mrs. Brown with their deferential adulation. the smartest and handsomest of them said to her with apparent unconcern:
 By the way, Mrs. Brown, who is go- ing to be our next GovernorT

Joe Brown and Secretaries.

"The last time I ever saw Joe Brown in his place in the Senate was pending the first discussion of the resolution pro- viding for private secretary for each Senator, which was in 1884" said former Washington correspondent.
 'The venerable Senator. with his long white beard and black clothes. tall and lanky, was standing in his place and. like Lady Macbeth, engaged in his ceaseless task of washing his hands with invisible soap, in unseen water pleading meanwhile for secretaries for the Senators. Reach ing a certain point in his argument, he strengthened himself to his full height, and looking around upon the listening Senate to command he said with un- mistakable pride and great unction:
 |" I employ a private secretary of my own, but am aware that few Senators can afford that
 There was an apparent ring of pride in his voice. and the Senate amiably smiled,
 "1n that day, Joe Brown was one of the very few wealthy men in the Senate. and next to Fair of Nevada was one of the wealthiest of them all. His secretary was a young Atlantian named Black. It was given out at the time that Senator Brown was paying $7oO a month for his suite of rooms in the Metropolitan hotel. His wife and daughter were with him there.
 Tt will be recalled by men familiar with Congress as 1t was then, that the Senate adopted the resolution providing a private secretary for each Senator The House refused to concur. and there was a long and unseemly wrangie over the question in committee on conference between the two houses The end of it was that the Senate won by paying the secretaries out of It's own fund. It took ten years for the House to get up courage to provide each representative with a secretary; ah action that was taken twenty years after it became necessary"

Senator made the same declaration dur ing the session of the convention at the same time he denounced in unmstakable terms several of the articles as unconsti- tutlonal and unworthy of the State of Alabama
 Several days before the above para graph appeared in the Item Senator Pet tus wrote Chairman Underwood a letter which was widely circulated. saying ne was at the service of the campaign com- mittee to make speeches anywhere in the State. Despite that letter. of which the Item must have been fully aware, 1t at- tempts to create the impression that Senator Pettus regards the new constitu- tion as a bad document and Is merely supporting 1t because it is Democratic instrument
 The Item Is also mistaken when it as- serts that Senator Pettus denounced several of the articles as unconstitutional and unworthy of the State of Alabama" Senator Pettus did doubt the constitu- tionality of the hereditary clause in the suffrage article. but he did not denounce several articles"
 In it's opposition to the constitution the Item has spoken without due considera- ton and reflection.

 Three million people have already vis- ited the Alabama exhibit in the Pan American Exposition at Buffalo and the number of visitors daily is increasing said Maj. Frank Y. Anderson yesterday.
 "As we all know, the Alabama exhibit is small, but 1t is good, it is most ao- mirable. as the millions who have seen 1t are aware" Major Anderson eontin- ued. "In small space. in small quan- titiess our display is representative or our great natural wealth. of the unsur- passed variety of our wonderfully rlcn resources. and therefore it is the pest and likely to prove the most remunera- tive advertising that Alabama ever had. "one pleasing and interesting fact rela- tive to the exhibit and It's millions or visitors is that the visitors didn't simply pause there and take nasty LOOK ana pass on, but they showed a real and ap- preciative interest in the display. closely examining 1t in detail and seeking infor- nation concerning Alabama ana us great riches there represented
