Newspaper Enterprise.

O. P. Gaut has returned from St. Louis and brings good story of newspaper en- terprise in connection with the recent Bir- mingham cyclone Mr. Gaut says:
 ''I had been i'll and was lying on my bed when some one knocked at the door. l asked him in and in very abrupt tone young man announced that he was a reporter. T see you are from Birming- ham, I nodded assent, and the man con- tinued: Your town has just been blown away by cyclone, and want an inter- view from you. All right, but 1t has been eight days since I was there, I re- piled What were the atmospheric con- ditions when you left?' demanded the Re- porter. I replied that it was a balmy spring day when I left Birmingham. That is sufficient. said the fellow. will get you in the noon extra With a look of importance on his face the newspaper man rushed out, and within an hour there was an extra edition of an afternoon newspaper with a big column story from me on the Birmingham tornado. Can Bir mingham top that?"

ing more perhaps than few shingles or their light piazzas. People build ing houses should fill in the space be- tween the pillars with masonry, no matter how rough, as great vibrations will crumble the pillars, in which there is naturally very little lateral resistance"
 There is much truth in what Cap tain Devereux states. It is really reckless, almost criminal, to place a house in which people. or even ami mals, live on their narrow pillars of brick. Such construction invites dis aster. True, neither pillars nor solid walls could resist the tornado that visited St. Louis in 1896, but all tor nadoes are not so strong as that one was. Buildings placed on solid walls minimize the danger at any rate, ane it is common prudence to require walls hereafter instead of pillars.
 This matter is one that deserves consideration before licenses to build are granted.

Building Against Tornadoes.

Capt. John A. Devereux, superin- States public buildings, was in Geor- gia on last Monday, and he took oc- casion to discuss the proper way to build against tornadoes and other dan gerous storms.
 Tn the future" he says, people should build on solid walls and an chor their sills against the lifting power of the whirlwinds which are generated in certain atmospheric con- ditions The lifting power of these storms is so great that they frequent ly uproot large trees and strip every moveable thing from the earth in their path. Buildings in the path of these whirlwinds which are not securely anchored are liable to suffer.
 of course there are some whirl- winds which develop such energy that they will destroy anything short of . pyramid. I have seen a whirlwind make a gap through forest an eighth of mile wide, uprooting large trees and scattering heavy buildings like so many feathers, just as have seen a column of water rise from the bosom of the ocean, lifting millions of tons of water to the clouds. The same atmospheric conditions which have caused such disturbances in Georgia and Alabama give rise to the water spouts.'
 Solid walls and few iron an. chors." Captain Devereux said. would have saved most of the buildings from wreck, and they would have lost noth-

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

Frm the New York Press.
 Probably every old bachelor, at some time in his life, thought of proposing to some girl until she proposed to him. Half the time when men hold a girls hand they are doing 1t because they are afraid of. what she might do if they didn't.
 Every woman has terrible longing to find out about her husbands old love affairs and terrible fear that maybe she will.
 The best way for a woman to make her husband believe in her religion isn't al- ways to pray out loud for other women's s husbands.

Invite inc President.

A good share of the good people of this country seem to prefer to think that the tornado blew the larger part of this town over into Georgia. Moth ing short of an actual view of tho town will disillusionizc these people. For that purpose let us bring them here to sec the President and the town at the same time.
 An invitation extended to the Presi- dent would certainly induce him to stop here at least few hours, espe- cially if the invitation be extended be- fore the trip is too firmly crystallized AS planned the Presidential party pro- poses to leave Washington about May l, going via New Orleans to San Fran cisco. but stopping at numerous places en route.
 Birmingham should be one of those places. We can thus show .le country that there is still a Birmingham left, and that it is just about as active and prosperous town as the country af- lords. One little tornado cannot sniff out this town. Bring the President here and let him see how narrow the track of the tornado was. Let all the world know that Birmingham grows and prospers.

RECEPTION TO THE PRESIDENT

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
 By a coincidence no less remarkable than opportune, President Mckinley will spend April 30, the ninety-eighth annivor- sary of the signing of the treaty of Paris, under the terms of which the United States acquired Louisiana from France, in New Orleans. To fttingly commence rate the occasion 1t Is proposed by the Louisiana Historical Society to tender him a reception in the old Cabildo build ing. now occupied by the Supreme Court of the State, and where, in 1903, the actu- al transfer of Louisiana was made.
 At a recent meeting of the executive committee Chief Justice Nichols of the Louisiana Supreme Court and Associate Justice Breaux were warm advocates of the proposed reception and offered the use of the courtroom. It was determined to immediately advise Mayor Capdevielle of the offer, and If 1t is accepted, as 1t will be without doubt, the decorations will be at once taken In hand by the so cety. The walls of the old hall will be hung with relics of great antiquity. and altogether the environments will be of a character well calculated to impress the Chief Executive of the nation.

MORGAN SAYS "KEEP MUM.v

| From the Chicago Tribune (Rep) Senator Morgan writes to the Atlanta Constitution that the silent progress we are making in the direction of disfran- chising negro voters lis encouraging" I" He is pleased that Maryland has seen her opportunity and has hastened to prof 1t by it." Since things are coming our way" he thinks, "the least said is the best just now" He gives 1t as his opinion that the colored people will begin to draw off to the Philippines at an early date. They are already going to Hawaii, and we shall soon find room for white people in the south. Then we shall be free and happy people,"
 If freedom and happiness are not to en- ter the south until the blacks leave it, the whites of that region will long be unfree and unhappy. The colored people have not the money with which to mi grate and nobody will pay what it will cost to transport them to distant lands. There has been talk of shipping them to Cuba, to Africa, and to Mexico, but they do not wish to go. few have been taken to Hawaii, but most of them prefer to stay in their native land. They will remain in the south and because of their presence there the southern states will have. so long as the fourteenth amend ment is a dead letter, Representatives and President electors they should not have.
 Senator Morgan assumed that if south ern Democrats do not talk too much about negro Acknowledgement they will be allowed to go on and finish their work, enjoying, until the south is all white, an excessive representation in the House and undue power in the election of a Presi- dent. He Is mistaken about the blacks leaving the south. Perhaps he will find himself in error in hiss assumption that the fourteenth amendment is to be ig- nored indefinitely.
 The Republican leaders in the next Con- gress will have something to say on that subject The last Congress passed an ap- portionment law which gave certain southern states more Representatives than they ought to have. A succeeding Congress can reduce the number.
