Eminent Montgomerians.

me most hopeful feature of the situa- tioh arising out of the Josiah Morris & oo. bank failure at Montgomery is the character of the committee of investigation and general plan, this committee having been created at meeting of the hanks creditors held this morning." said a former Montgomerian last night
 Colonel Falkner is the chairman. and .hat mere fact means more to the public than countless columns of dollar for dol- lar gossip for it may be well doubted if there is any other man in Alabama who is so freely and fully trusted by the public as a prudent just, upright and able man as Colonel Fall1ner. His position in public es- teem is unique; he is without a rival in the hearts of the people.
 J. l. Mckinney, member of the com mlttee, is the superintendent of the Mo- plle division of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, and is a powerful man of the highest character; and associated with him In this delicate work is w F. Vandiver the largest grocery merchant in Alabama one of the best and most successful of all citi zens, and believed to be the largest single patron of the Louisville and Nashville in 'iii' o'atc' i1. D. JoSepn, MayOf or Mont gomery and most successful business man; Barry L. Holt, planter and banker, and man of large wealth, believed to pos- sess more money than any other Alabam- ian; Henry c. Davidson and s. Roman, two of the best and most successful men of Montgomery; Congressman-elect A. A. Wiley, eminent lawyer and man of large wealth, and on.
 Thus it is remarkably strong commit tee, and the public will know that all that Skill, sagacity and high character can do to mend the banks fortunes will be done.o

LINES TO A WATERFOWL

By William Cullen Bryant.
 Whither, midst falling dew, While glow the heavens with the last steps of day, Far, through their rosy depths, dost thou pursue
 Thy solitary way?
 Vainly the fower's eye Might mark thy distant flight to do thee wrong, As, darkly seen against the crimson Sky,
 Thy figure floats along.
 Seek'st thou the plashy brine Of weedy lake, or marge of river wide, Or where the rocking pillows rise and sink
 On the chafed ocean tide?
 There is a power whose care Teaches the way along the painless coast The desert and illimitable air.
 Lone wandering but not lost
 All day thy wings have famed At that far height the cold, thin atmos- phere; Yet stoop not, weary, to the welcome land
 Though the dark night is near.
 And soon that toll shall end; Soon shalt thou find summer home, and rest, And scream among thy fellows; reeds shall bend,
 Soon, OCT thy sheltered nest.
 Thourt gone; tho abyss of heaven Hath swallowed up thy form: yet, on my heart, Deeply has sunk the lesson thou hast given,
 And shalt not soon depart
 He who, from zone to zone, Guides through the boandless sky thy eer. tain flight, In the long way that I must tread alone,
 Will lead my steps ariaht.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press. -a
 The average woman does a lot of foolish things just to see if a certain man will care.
 The fact that woman marries man at all is generally proof that she doesn't know as much as he does.
 A woman that is too tender-hearted to kill a mouse won't think thing of putting perfumery on a baby
 Before a girl is engaged she thinks all the men are alike; after she has been married a year, she thinks they are all different.
 As soon as two people have baby all it's relatives begin to quarrel over what its name shall be; by the time this is settled they begin to quarrel over which it looks like; by the time they get this settled, there is generally another baby.

The Presidents Birthday.

This day is the fifty-eighth anniversary of the birthday of William Mckinley, the President having been born January 29 1S43, which makes him about one year and ten weeks younger than the King of Eng land, between whom and himself there have been recent expressions of profound sor- row, shared on this side the by all true Americans said lounger last night.
 Thus Mr. Mckinley will be but sixty two when he quits the Presidency in the prime of life and nothing to look forward to except obscurity, or the worse than ob- scurity of Harrisons hopping around on law business and the like. But, today all Americans will offer cordial congratula- tions to one of the best of all the Presi- dents of the Republic, for there is no American with an opinion of any value who does not respect MT Mckinley as one of the highest of our national types of cit izenship. He is one of the great Presidents. great Americans, and as such he is honored and esteemed by all the worthy people,"

THE oBscURITY CURE.

From the Indianapolis Press.
 Probably the deportation to Guam of Filipino leaders that have broken faith after taking the oath of allegiance, will be more effective in suppressing the rebel lion than any of the measures taken in the archipelago. The one thing the Filipino leader most dreads is to be put in a posi- tion of obscurity.

JURIST JOHN MARSHALL

From the Chicago Tribune.
 Americans know comparatively little about Marshall, because his work was not of the kind that attracts the popular eye, but when some historian arises to trace out the influence of the Supreme Court on the history of the United States his name will get it's dues. In the meantime, it is meet that the bar associations of the coun- try should unite to do him honor.
