He RIem out the Gas.

The story of an accident which came near having serious results and which involves a young boarder of Fourth avenue house is being told about the city The serious result which were, barely missed would have been asphyxiation. It would have been due to the green ness of friend of the Birmingham man.. -.
 It was at the time ofeone of the recent visits of circnsses that friend or the local man who lived in Greene county paid a visit to Birmingham. Naturally he called on his friend and quite naturally his friend invited him to spend the night at his home. This home was a boarding house.
 In order to catch an early train the visitor was forced to rise before day. light. Thus he was forced to light the gas so that he might dress. When he began dressing the local man fell asleep. He did not wake when his friend said goodbye For which reason he did not see his friend blow out the gas
 When breakfast was served and the young man failed to make his appear ance an investigation was begun with the result that he was discovered in an almost suffocated condition. Now he has made an indescribably bad-sounding oath not to ask another friend to sleep with him unless he first secures sign to at tach to the gas jet asking that gas De not blown out.

Looking Towards Christmas.


 The Ladies' Home Journal urges the formation of an Empty Stocking Club" in every town and neighborhood in the land. These clubs have existed in some towns several years, originat. ing,afrom picture of two little girls who crawled out of wrtched bed on Christmas morning to- find their rag, ged, stockings. empty. This picture touched human hearts, and many clubs were organized.
 We need such club in every ward of this city, and in every beat in this county. Through such clubs gifts can be.wisely and widely distributed, and a gift of $1O0 to such club would fill every empty stocking on Christmas morning in it's district.
 this town and county this very week Let the field of each be limited, so that none of the money given to empty st9ckings will go amiss or be .mis. plated, and above all that no empty stocking shall be overlooked.
 Perhaps if every church would or gahize such a club the ground would betcovered in good part, but not alto gether, for churches are very apt to keep within their respective fiocks, and there are many outside Sof all hocks. There are many who have no ties of any sort. and it is these that furnish the most empty stockings. It is the little ones of these that should be remembered on Christmas morning. Quick and comprehensive action is needed, and if every good man and woman in this county will act up to thes promptings of his or her heart there will be no empty stockings in this prosperous county this year.

PIG IRON RECORD BEATEN.

From the Iron Age.
 A new worlds record for blast furnace production was made by No. 8 furnace of the Carrie group of the Carnegie Steel Company on November 20, when 79O gross tons of basic iron was made in twenty four-hour run, exceeding the best previ- ous record, which was made by one of the Duquesne stacks of the same com pany, by fifty-nine tons. The Carrie stack which made this marvellous record is one of the two new furnaces built since the Carnegie Steel Company acquired the Carrie property, both having been planr ned for a minimum capacity of 700 tons per day. The furnaces are 100 feet high and twenty-three feet in diameter in the bosh, and are equipped with twelve tuyeres. During the blast of November 2O when the great record was made, an average pressure of twentyone pounds was maintained. The furnace was work ed on non Bessem CT ores running from 52 to 5S per cent. in iron and 0.10 in piios- phorus Casts were made every four hours One cast required ten ladies and yielded 16S tons. A total of 2270 tons of material was charged during the twenty four hours including 145e tons of ores and cinder 660 tons of coke and 160 tons of limestone. The metal was conveyed in ladies across the river tofthe Homestead steel works. No effort has been made to reach the maximum capacity of No, furnace, but it is probable that the per formance of No. will be equaled or beaten.

Cost of Living and the Iar,ff.

Fresh and canned vegetables, all breadstuffs and all meats are higher than they were ninety days ago. and the tendency is still upward Some attribute the rapid change to the wide spread drouths of last summer in the more productive States, While others think the various combinations of the land are at the bottom of this trouble. The. wheat harvest of this year had never been equalled and yet the price of flour is going up, and the man in narrow circumstances and the man who receives fixed wage begin to wonder why. .sa
 The actual cost of living will be greater this winter. than it has ever been in the history of the country. Corn is twenty cents bushel higher than it was in November of last year. The price of oats has been doubled. or very nearly so. Wheat. despite great crop, is about ten cents higher, and

Cleveland Most Available.

'I believe that Grover Cleveland is the only man possible for the Democrats to nominate and elect to the Presidency next time" said well known bi-metallist who has been prominent in party ranks last night. T base this statement upon the fact that under the present conditions no man can be elected to the Presidency unless he can raise a campaign fund running up into the millions The money and business interests of the East have more confidence in Cleveland than they have in Roosevelt. Besides, the money question is settled for many years to come-or at least is settled as long as the present prosperous period continues. Cleveland's views on the tariff are in thorough accord with the Democrats of the South and upon this issue he can get the Southern votes"

flour goes up with 1t. It Is generally thought that wheat will go even to a dollar a bushel in Chicago on account of the short corn crop. Wheat will be fed in many cases in the northwest in order to keep animals alive. The high price of corn sends the prices of all meats up, even butter and eggs.
 The combinations that the tariff really invites or at least renders pos sible, are utilizing the short crops of the northwest to squeeze to the ut most the. consumer. The tariff raises wages with one hand and snatches those wages away with another. There can be no real relief until we become again part of the trading world, and all artificial and indirect taxation is swept away, and all robbery of the many by the few that goes with in direct taxation as natural and in evitable incident.

American Fiction Hereafter

American fiction is shifting again. The historical novel is going out of favor and instead the story of social conditions is attracting more and more readers. There is a deal of romance in the old plantation; there is a deal of It, too, in the Quakers of the border land who strove so long and so quietly to overthrow the labor system of the old. plantation, thus bringing on the most dreadful civil war in the history cfethe world. There is plenty of ma terial in centurys life in new coun- try made of diverse people and civiliza- tion.
 The entire social development of the country is to be told, and the novel is tosbe the vehicle of the telling. For fhave fully acquired the novel habit, and there is perhaps no more effective way, especially when every popular story may be. staged. The new and later novelist will drop tin swords, and he will study the country's develop. ment on social lines, and we will have pictures at once graphic and pictur. esque and even romantic of the deeper features of American life-such pie lures as Dickens and ThaGkeray and George Eliot drew in the earlier Vic torian days in which they themselves lived.
 Such studies of our national life have never been written, and they must be written now if they are ever written by those who know them at all. The America of fifty years ago was full of interesting lives, and the growth of our literature and of Americanism will soon call for stories of those who made the present America possible, not to mention the greater America that is toNcome. Possibly they built better than they knew; possibly they wrought with no gleam of the glory of the flu ture; but nevertheless it was by and through them that we have. as a peo- pie rose to the grandest and most promising place ir tt4sAsor3astoday.
 Beyond a doubt most of the new books will be linked in one way or another with the civil war, which is fast coming to be considered the turn ing point in American life and Ameri. can history. The story of that war will never cease to be told while there is an America on the worlds map.

and tenement in New, York is a house occupied by three or more fam lies who maintain independent house holds, In Manhattan and Bronx 2,1 050,0o0 people live, and 1,55OOO0 of this number live in tenements. There are s5,00O houses parts of which are sub-let and only 15,OOO out of 16O,0OO dwellings each occupied exclusively by one family.
 This is a history of New York City, the second. in the world in nutshell. The farmer who lives in two-room cabin is more of freeman, leading a more desirable life, than any one of the Vast population living in tene- ments, no matter how well adapted to human wants some of them may be. But modern. as some of them are the elements of privacy and of independ- ence which go with real home are lacking.
 This tenement population rules New York, and through New York City the State of New York, and through the State of New York it dictates to the nation. It is always potential. New York is the monied metropolis of the country, and as the country grows so it will grow, for it IS the one town in this country that taxes every man, woman and child in it. No one escapes. Other towns tax large sections, but New York taxes all And. the metro politan city is in the hands of people who live, m tenement houses! The wonder is that it's politics and morals and general condition are not worse, infinitely worse. Surely no one will envy then75 per cent of New Yorkefs wl.o live in tenements their lot in life, however much they may desire, to live as the few do in that great city. No self-respecting man born and bred in the open country can accept even for brief period life for himself and his family in a tenement house, away from the birds and trees and untaintSd .breezes of country life.y >.

Meeting of Congress.

!. The. Fifty-sevepth- Congress will be assembled and organized tomorrow, and it will doubtless. stay in session until August next, for much business of importance will be brought before the long session. The isthmian canal alone will in one way and another take up much time, and it is conceded that the crisis is at hand in that great uq2 dertaking.' Beyond a doubt bill will be passed that will commit the coun- try to the building of the Nicaragua canal. and this will be the chief glory of the session.
 Tariff and antitrust propositions will come up, but little action is ex- pected from a Congress that is Repub- i. .lican in both branches. A ship sub sidy bill will be passed, as will bills relating to penny postage, Chinese exclusion, a Pacific cable, the anarch- ists, a new department of commerce.. reduction of war taxes, and the gov ernment of the newF possessions There will be no lacktof business out side of the regular appropriation bills, which will. Themselves be very inter- e..ing.
 Mr. Babcock of Wisconsin will en. deavor to restrain the monopolies of the various trusts by reducing or re- pealing the duties on the articles they make or handle. This will involve a battle of the most strenuous nature; and the belief prevails that the trusts will be able to squelch the Babcock proposition in the committee rooms. The trusts, too, will be confronted by proposition from the Industrial Com. mission looking to federal interference and supervision. This, too, will be squelched. Nothing will be enacted into law that the campaign-contribut ing trusts dislike, and the entire issue will go over to 1904, to be settled at the polls. ln nis invites campaign in which vast fund will be raised on the Republican side, while the Demo crats W have to trust largely to the l intelligence of the voters.
 The war taxes will doubtless be re- pealed, because to certain extent this will strengthen the trusts and high tariff people, who will have full con. trol of the new Congress. There will not be much of local interest in the new Congress except the appropriation for an Open Warrior, which should be at least million of dollars. Rural free delivery will no doubt be extended and perhaps other practical measures of value and importance will be squeezed through before the heats of summer compel adjournment.
