Strained Ar for BrathIng.
n the saturdav Evening Post.

From the Saturday Evening Post.
 The newest idea for mitigating hay fever-a disease which seems to claim more victims every year in proportion to the popuiation-is embodied in a small disk covered with wire gauge, which Is inserted in the nostril. Of course. one must have pair of them. and the gauze has to be exceedingly fine, so as to ex- clude dust and more particularly the pol len of plants, which is believed to be the chief cause of the complaint.
 patent for this contrivance was re- gently granted. There are a number of other kinds of pollen-excluders, all of which have the same idea in view, but most of them contain raw cotton, which Is intended to be saturated with some volatile medicinal oil. soothing to the infiamed membranes such as eucalyptol As the oil evaporates its fumes are in- haled.
 Reports have been published recently to the effect that many cures of hay fever have been accomplished by hypodermic infections of fluid extract of ragweed- a plant whose pollen Is particularly bad for hay fever sufferers. By this means, if the statements made are true, large numbers of patients have been rendered immune, the doses having been adminis- tered few weeks before the annual att tack was due

A FAMILY BATTLE.

From the Boston Herald.
 Nothing more savage and pitiless than the family feuds of the south partic ularly of Kentucky and Tennessee, are known In any civilized nation. In one sense they are worse than lynchings, for the enemies engendered are implacable and are handed down from generation to generation. That of the Morgans and the Chadweils, who fought at church on Sunday last, two Morgans and two Chad wells being killed on the spot two other Morgans being mortally wounded, and several on both sides being less severely wounded, was only one of several fights that have occurred from time to time since the civil war. and probably will continue occurring until the male line of one family is extinguished. Even then it may be perpetuated by being taken up by relatives These two families live not a mile apart. No man of either, 1t may be presumed, ever goes out of his house without his gun in hand, certainly not when any occurrence has aroused a fresh rancor of hostility. This kind Of life ought to be strenuous enough to satisfy every requirement of the disciples of that school. It Is not usual to punish any one for murders committed in the prosecu- tion of feud. They are looked upon as a private affair, with which the public at large has no call to meddle.

Growth of Negro Population.

On account of white immigration the percentage of negro population in the country is steadily decreasing. In 1890 the negroes were 1910 per cent of the total number. The percentage was 1884 in 1840; 15.69 in 1850; 1413 in 1860, 1866 in 1870; 1913 in 1880; 11.93 in 1890, and 11.5S in 1900. The census of 1880 is notoriously defective, and the increase shown at that time is incorrect beyond a reasonable doubt. Ever since 1910 the percentage of blacks in the entire country has been steadily lessening. It will no doubt go lower still.
 All but four States show in the cen sus of last year lessened percentages of blacks, and these four States are Alabama, Arkansas. Missouri and Florida. The percentage of negroes in this State has risen from 442 in 1890 to 45.3 in 1900. The State needs white immigrants. Louisiana formerly contained a majority of blacks, but the incoming of Italians and Greeks has given the whites majority. Out of 458, ,496 migrants who were landed at New York in the last fiscal year aA1,325 came from Southern Italy, where the climate is very like Ala bama's. There is no reason why Thousands and even tens of thousands of Italians from the neighborhood of Naples cannot be induced to come here and buy small farms, and do well for themselves and for the State. We need this kind of immigration in order to keep the black percentage down, and the subject should command care ful attention in the next session of the Legislature.

The sehley court of inquiry continues to drag along It's tedious trail. It is caus- ing the public to become very much dis gusted with at least a portion of the personnel of the American navy. Appar- ently naval officers are as jealous of one another as are school boys. Many who have testified against schiey have shown by their words that they dislike him personally. Nothing to his discredlt has yet been brought out. But much Co the discredit of the personnel of the navy as a whole has been demonstrated,
 
 William c. Whitney. who has been much talked of as a possible Democratic candidate for the Presidency three tears hence, seems to have entirely abandoned politics and to have become wildly en- unused on the subject of race horses. It was less than year ago that he bought a 2-year-old colt. Nasturtium, paying fifty thousand dollars for him, and a month ago he bought Yankee. another 2-year-old, winner of the Futurity,< for fifty thousand dollars; and Thursday last he paid thirty-ive thousand dollars for Kentucky 2-year-old named Endurance by-Right.
 In the past two years MT. Whitney has invested something like million dollars in race horses. He has horses in England and France and scores of them in this country. He will have none but the best. He seems to love horse races today as much as he did politics ten years ago or Wall street speculation five years ago.
 
 The Board of Alderm en has done we'll to place the entire matter of the removal of the city's garbage in the hands of the mayor. Some one should be responsible for making Birmingham. clean city and keeping 1t clean. The public is not so much interested in the cost of doing the work as 1t is in the character of the work Birmingham should be made a clean city and kept a clean city. If there is any neglect in future the public will know who is responsible. Mayor Dren- nen will in all probability see that the work Is well done. The truth of the mat ter is that the mayor of Birmingham has not sufficient power; therefore, he cannot always be held responsible.
 Birmingham Is growing. It is becoming great city. Hundreds, even thousands, of houses are at present under construc- ton. New streets are being m ade and old ones improved in every direction. If Is absolutely necessary for the health of the citizens that the streets and alleys be kept clean. The people are taxed sufi- ciently to provide this. We shall 5ail. therefore, in future look to Mayor Dreh- nen for cleaner and a better city

Tunnel Under BehrIna Strail.

A company has been organized for the purpose of building a tunnel and a railroad line from the Yukon Valley to a. junction with the Siberian line. At first it was proposed to build a steel bridge from East Cape in Siberia to Cape Prince of Wales in Alaska, the distance being about fifty miles. Much of the distance is covered by shallow water, but in the channel proper there is a depth that extends to 150 feet. The greatest depth between England and France along the Dover Calais rout is 120 feet, and a tunnel there Is known to be practicable. And so it Is at Behring Strait.
 The heavy cost is about all there is in the way, but long before the cen tury Is well advanced the money needed will be forthcoming, and tun- nel will be built. A bridge is imprac- ticable because of the great depth of the water in the channel proper, and because the currents and ice foes are at all times terrific. A tunnel Is feasi- ble, and there are children living to- day who will ride securely through it..
 Such tunnel will counterbalance a canal on the center of the hemisphere. While Uncle Sam is cutting canal at Nicaragua, perhaps the Bear will be promoting the construction of rail road tunnel at Behring Strait. The one will join the two great seas, and the other will join the two progressive continents of this world. The world will be well joined and adapted for growth and peace and prosperity when the two great works are completed.

Mr. Knox at the Jefferson.

At the Jefferson Theatre, next Thursday night, ex-President John 5. Knox will discuss before the people of this town the New constitution. The man whose influence was felt in every article of that instrument, who watched it's formation from start to finish-this man, so well and favorably known to all Alabamians, will discuss in plain phrases the New constitution. and all objections to it. All who de- sire to hear clear, broad and frank exposition of the instrument now be- fore the people should be present. No one exceeds MT. Knox in hard sense or in argument He is a master of logic and of constitutional law.
 Let us give this eminent Alabamian, who is seeking no office, a full house and fair hearing. The Jefferson should be packed from the stage out and upwards. No speaker in the State better deserves such a hearing. To the premier county comes the premier leader and presiding officer of.the con vention, to explain its work, to meet a.l. objectors, to win over the hesitat- ing and to confirm and strengthen the
 
 faithful. Let al come, and hear An niston's famous son. Remember the night Thursday next, October T..

Go a bit further. The negro Is rapidly being eliminated from southern politics. He Is no longer a voter in Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and other southern states, and will soon be as a Chinaman in the Alabama situation At the next national election not handful of negroes in all Alabama may cast bal lots. Hordes of negro voters will not be in solid phalanx to drive white men to vote as a unit. It will be a white mans contest with no black menace.
 Sse
 Then what?
 Republication may not be surrounded with miasmatic black odors. The glitter of the gold Democrat of the past may be all around and about 1t. Thorough breds who have but nervously champed the bit in the past may be in the front line of battle in future, and then there will be political contests of furious fierceness.
 So Roosevelt may have reasoned. Bold in all battles, he is seeking the disrup- tion of the solid south. He may be going the southern constitutional conventions, which have eliminated the negro voter, one better.
 We may all be glad, and we may ap- plaud the honor thrust upon our respect ed and honored citizen, ex-Governor Thomas Jones, but those of us who are Democrats. because we are firmly fixed in love for and loyalty to cardinal Dem ocratic principles, cannot but view with a bit of alarm and misgiving this modern and appealing policy of the new Repub- lican President of the United State es. With the negro merely gallery audience white men must disagree. Therefore 1t is not improbable that we may expect two white political parties in the south as exist in New York and other northern and western states. If so, one party will be Rooseveltites primarily. Republicans secondarily.
 Sir Thomas Lipton is really sports man in the truest sense of the word, or else he is bold advertiser of his wares. Lipton has made a fortune out of his whiskies.
 It has cost Sir Thomas a half million dollars to make two attempts to lift the Americas cup. He now announces that he hopes to make third attempt next year. In the meantime, dispatch comes from Berlin that Emperor William has in- structed the Kiel Yacht Club to challenge for the Americas cup. Thus, 1t may be that next year there will be three contes- tants in this nautical struggle, as both England and Germany will probably send yachts to compete against the American built article.

Grand Opera in Birminaham.

The provincial tour of the Grau Opera Company was begun last Mon- day at Toronto, Canada, and 1t is ex- tend across the continent to San Fran cisco. Birmingham is in this itinerary. Never before has grand opera at it's best been brought to the very doors of these towns. Alike in the size of guarantees and in artistic excellence this tour is absolutely without prece- dent in this country, and this town is of course part of 1t. All iron towns are music-loving towns, England's Birmingham being particularly so.
 Now that it is settled that both Sembrich and Schumann-Heink will sing here in Wagner immortal "Lohen- grin,' there is nothing more to be de- manded. Sembrich's voice is adapted to the role of Elsa, and Schumann- Heink is the worlds one great Ortrud Those two German singers stand to- day at the head of operatic art, and, barring Illness, both will be heard under the best of circumstances on the capacious stage of the Auditorium. It Is an opportunity that will come to no other Alabama town, and 1t will not recur here again soon.
