PREPARING FOR new TAKES
ENGLISH GOVERNMENT MUST
HAVE MONEY
Expense of War In South Africa
Enormous and Constantly
Growing.

London, Nov. 4.--What is regarded
as an important announcement pre-.
pairing the people Of Great britain for
new taxes and fresh loans was made
tonight by the chancellor of the ex-
chequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, in
a speech at Bristol. After alluding
to the enormous increase in the ordi-
nary expenditures OF the government,
he reviewed the war taxes and said
that the increasing demand Of. the
national exchequer gave reasons for
careful thought and even anxiety for
the future. "The cost of the war in
South Africa is enormous" said Sir
Michael, 1T still drags. It may be,
when the new year comes, that may
have to ask the people Of this country
to bear even greater burdens and to
make even greater sacrifices"
John Morley, M. F., speaking at
Forfar, Scotland, today asserted that
the ordinary annual expenditures Of
the British government had increas
ed G2S,000,OO0 during the last ten
years or including the suspension OF
the sinking iund e32,GO0,000. He de
cared that there was real danger
ahead for the country.

TO COMMENCE WORK

Shape to Present to Senate
Next Month.

Washington, Nov.4.-Lord Pauncefote
the British ambassador called upon Sec
rctary Hay at 1890 today to announce
formally to the secretary his return from
a vacation in England lasting all SUM
mer and his readiness to undertake at
once the conclusion Of the new Hay
Pauncefote treaty. The interview lasted
about half an hour Many topics were
touched upon besides the treaty, which
was not given particular consideration
today, the conversation on that point
being rather preliminary to the begin
ming of the treaty drafting Lord Paun-
cefote did not bring with him to the
state department copy of the conven-
ton, in fact this document does not ex-
list, as such, for although the principal
points of the treaty have been agreed
upon between the two principals,
they have still to be transferred from
protocols into formal treaty. This
work of Transforming will begin in
about week according to the present
expectations and if it proceeds. .satisfac-
torily and steadily after that time the
new treaty will be in shape to present to
the senate Immediately after that body
convenes next month.

GRAIN ELEVATOR BURNED
UNLOADING STEAMER SAVED
BY HEROIC EFFORT
Thousands Of Bushels Of Wheat,
Oats and Corr Destroyed
Loss $500, 900.

Port Huron, Mich, Nov. 4.-Fire
tonight destroyed two large adjoining
grain elevators owned by the Bots
ford Elevator company here entailing
loss Of 100000. There was 171,000
bushels Of wheat, 10000 bushels Of
corn and $4,000 bushels Of oats in
the buildings and the grain was all
destroyed. The loss to buildings Is
estimated at $125,OO0 with $4,000 in
surance and $175,00O on the grain.
The grain was fully insured.
The steamer Spokane from Chi.
cago was unloading grain when the
fire started and was only saved by
the heroic efforts Of her crew. One
residence nearby was also burned.
The elevators were to have been
used as one Of the storage points in
the projected through grain ronte Of
the Grand Trunk railroad system
from Duluth, Minn., to Leith, Scot
land.
J. e. Botsford stated that the loss
Of these elevators would not hinder
the project, as million bushel ele-
vator would be constructed at Point
Edward, Ont. The burned elevators
will probably not be rebuilt.

BOTH SIDES CLAIM ADVANT-
AGE IN MAINLAND.
EFFECT OF BALLOT Law
Republican Leaders Say Voters are
Instructed in New Features
All Interested in Senator.

Baltimore, Nov. 4.-On tie eve Of
election in this state both parties
claim to have the better Of the stu
alton, but the leaders refuse to give
any figures.
A state comptroller and clerk Of
the court of appeals are the only
state officers to be chosen, and most
interest attches to the election Of a
legislature, which will choose Unit
ed States senator to succeed Geo. l..
Wellington who has been chosen as
republican and whose term will ex-
pire on March 3, 1903.
The campaign which was one OF
the shortest on record was marked
with an effort on the part Of the vot.
ers that as puzzled the leaders Of
both parties and Id the result con.
siderably in doubt.
In Baltimore city especially the sit
uation Is anything but clear. The re-
publican managers claim that they
will elect the city ticket and will car
ry all three legislative districts. They
count upon a large independent vote
for their ticket. The democrats say
that the city ticket is safe and tha
they will win their legislative ticke
| in two districts.
In the counties the outcome is alst
exceedingly doubtful. The demo
Gratis unquestionably believe tina
they will carry several counties here
tofore considered hopelessly republi
can and this belief is largely base'
upon the expectation that the new al
rangement of the ballot will disfran
chise the greater part Of the illiterat
colored voters.
The republican leaders from tn
counties claim that ttey have sue
ceeded in drilling their vote and tha
their loss will be very small. Nc
bo6y has yet been able to forecas
the exact effect Of the new ballo
laws. Each side claims the other will
suffer heaviest through its operation

the republican legislative candidates
who are running for their first terms
as they will be, IL successful tomor-
row, the republican nominees in the
same districts and counties two
years hence, when Senator Hanna
stands for reelection. The two Ohio
senators have appeared repeatedly on
the same platform and co-operated
with Chairman Dick on both the state
and legislative tickets. The admin.
istration has always been potent
factor in senatorial contests in Ohio.
1t is conceded that the late John
Sherman would have been defeated
by Foraker in the formers last con-
test for a senatorship, but for the
assistance Of Mckinley, who was
then governor. In like manner Gov
ernor Hoadley supported Senator
Payne, Governor Campbell supported
Senator Brice and Governor Bushnell
supported Senator Foraker. When
Governor Bushnell during his second
term opposed Hanna for senator the
success Of the latter by one vote was
an exception to the rule and it was
said that the national administration
then overcame the state administra.

Nash will be in power several months
after the election at which, members
Of the legislature are elected tc

It is reported that Congressman Dick
who has been chairman Of the state
committee for many years is likely
to be the republican candidate fol
governor two years hence and "the
aftermath" in many respects is a:

result Of the election itself tomorrow

 This book rescues from one of these lives from being forgotten, and it is to be hoped that others of this class of great teachers may. before it is too late have their life work recorded for the use of those coming after us
 A very noticeable feature of the book is that the authors heart was in his work for 1t shines out of every page that he was in love with the men of whom he wrote.
 Not the least of the merits of the book Is the fact apparent that 1t is Prof. Du- Bose's own. for nowhere is there any evidence that it has been pruned or "ed- ited' by the supercilious, ignorant hy- per critic, whose only idea of education Is expressed by the words of "cram", snap, drill" and whose hair would stand on end at the thought of calling such men as Admiral Semmes. John T. Morgan or William Lowndes Yancey patriots great and good men!
 It is a book well worth reading by every one who cares to know some of the great men who contributed their lives to the making of Alabama a great commun- ity. and at the same time 1t is a monu- ment, speaking for all time of the love of the author for all that was good and true in the lives of these great men.

"SketcheS'''' of Alabama History.
BY JOEL CAMPBELL DUsosE, M. A.

Under the above modest title there has recently been published one of the most enterta aiming and instructive works on Alabama history that has ever been writ ten.
 Every reader of this book will surely derive therefrom both pleasure and profit, for 1t presents the lives of few typical Alabamians for the study of this generation as no other book does, and the only regret one can have about the book is that the requirement of a short history forbade the author from passing in review more of the lives of notable, noble men of Alabama, for the instruction and inspiration of the living.
 One of the strongest most vivid word pictures in the whole book, is that of Dr. Seth Smith Mellen. In which the au- thor very lovingly strongly portrays the life and work of true teacher
 This is not an isolated case, though the only one the author had space for in his book. for the youth of Alabama, prior to 1860 enjoyed the inestimable privileee of learning for such great. true teachers as Dr. Henry A. Tutwiler, Dr. Seth Smith Mellen, Robert s. Lewis and many others of like ability. who were born teachers of the highest type; men who were really greater teachers than Pesto-
