by the following:

EBEN JACKSON.
All this had happened year ago.
Now the old man was furious. He ar
rived at the store fifteen minutes early
and cursed every man in the place
black and blue.
Dawson's first duty In the morning
consisted of sorting and opening the
mail, and he had SO arranged matters
with the postman as to meet him al
the door, taking the mail to his desk
| himself. That caused him to be ready
| for business as soon as there was any
| thing doing. He followed his plan
| this morning.
Good morning, Mr.. Jackson ne
said cheerily as he took his seat ''This
is certainly a fine day."
There came a gurgle from the OLD
mans throat, not unlike column OF
water through pipe too small FOR

Dawson was used to this and con-
tinued. to sort the mail. Finally he
took the personal ones across the room
and laid them on Mr.. Jackson's desk.

The proprietor OF millions sank III

heard him whistle.
If was only an hour that the boss
had to stay in his cooped up jail, but
II seemed a year. He suddenly heard
the whistle again and was ready to
get down on his knees to his unruly
emnlovee when the door suddenly
opened. He happened to be straining

A PRACTICAL SUGGESTION.

prominent Alabama woman contri- butes the following letter to this depart ment:
 The day we celebrate Is come-and, af- ter many weary year of exile from home, I return to see its citizens unite on this twenty-sixth of April to decorate the graves of Confederate soldiers. just as they did in the months passed away of smiles and tears
 Out In Dallas the survivors of the Con- federate army and their sons have had a great reunion. At Opelika the Alabama Daughters will soon meet together. I am asking myself today what does the sac- red ceremony mean, what Is the purpose of the reunions and what have each and all accomplished have just finished read ing Mrs. Chappell Cory's beautiful sketch ot the first decade of the Ladies' Mem orial Association. Need I say how it stirred the wellsprings of memory, and how her plea to follow the path of our mothers trod struck home, and how l caught a glimpse through mists In my eyes of that 'primrose way by the river of Life" which she describes.
 Truly, truly, for these gentle danes of the Old South it would seem to have been enough, when the enquirer about the years of strife and of devastation which followed asked each What have you done?" it would seem enough for each to have replied in the words of the old French nobleman after the Revolu-
 
 But. it was not so to them. and. today let us ask ourselves what they left to us to perform. Is not our task before us to revitalize and reconstruct the land they loved, and to care for the children, or grandchildren now, of the soldiers they so reverently inferred. not forgetting to comfort as far as in us lies the declining years of these Confederate soldiers among us still, who finger, homeless, amid homes they fought to save?
 Who knows what methods are best ? I own I do not But can we not diligent- ly search and discover? Possibly the pages of history would throw some light on the question. Germany is near the front now in all those things which make a nation great-in industries, in com merce and in education Was she ever as prostrate as we w,-e in 1865, and what did she do to recover? In the first in- stance, yes-and. to rehabilitate herself, she set out on a policy of universal edu- cation which should include arts trades and agricultural pursuits; and also es- tablished loan fund for the assistance of those who would till her fruitful soil.

WILL BE FRIENDS AGAIN. AustrIa-Hungary VIII Resume Diplo : matic Relations With Mexico.

Budapest, April 29.-The lower house of the Hungarian Diet today ratified the the Austro- Hungarian commercial and consular treaty with Mexico, which aapsed in 1867 and had not since been re- newed.
 The official Fremdenblatt of Vienna announced April 20, 1901, that the friendly rapproachment between Austria-Hungary and Mexico in consequence of the erec- tion of an expiatory chapel at Queretaro where Emperor Maximilian was executed in 1S67 would result in an early resump- tion of diplomatic relations between the dual monarchy and the Mexican republic interrupted since the Emperor was shot.
 The same, day a bill was introduced in the Congress of Mexico providing for a renewal of diplomatic relations with Austria Hungary, and an appropriation |of s15,000 was made for the salary of a Mexican minister to Austria-Hungary June 1, 1901. Count Gulbert Hohenwart was appointed Austrian Hungarian min ister to Mexico.
 A government bill arranging for com- mercial and consular relations between Austria Hungary and Mexico was adopt ed, without debate by the lower house of the Austria Reischsrath, March Is last.

"RosEDALE" AT THE JEFFERSON.

On the evening of May 15 at the Jeffer- son Theatre there will be a performance of Lester Wallace's favorite play, Rose dale,' which has been localized and brought to Spring Time Mobile with the local volunteer regiment as charac- ters.
 "Rosedale" is the name of an estate and mansion house. The original production Is laid in England; but in this presenta- tion the cockney servants will be changed to negroes, the exrcolonel of the "Queens Lancers" to an old Confederate soldier, the leading character to a young lieu tenant in the Southern army. The play abounds in thrilling situations which will cause the gallery gods to thrill with delight Yet the play Is so well written that it pleases the most fastidious. The performance will be production. as each of the five settings will be carefully stag ed. The cast will be made up exclusively of pupils from the school of Kendall Wes- ton, and this young actor will make his first public appearance since the closing of the Boyle Stock Company, when he will appear as 'Lieut. Elliott Cray part in which he has won success. The Birmingham Rines' and Jefferson Vol unteers" will participate in the event, which is given under their auspices to finish their new armory in the "City Hall building" The military companies of North Alabama are to be invited. Reduc- ed rates on the railroads to those towns where the militia are quartered will be asked. One of the great features of the play is the Gypsy dell by moonlight, where Gray has gone to find the lost child. He accomplishes his purpose but Is blocked by "McKenna," the leader of the Romanys," and abductor of the child. He calls his men up, saying what do you think of my Rabbits now" when Elicit says: up comrades" and thirty rifles are aimed at the Gypsies. and the Hero triumphs. Another great spectac- ular scene is the final one, when the Officers Ball Is given in their honor. A cotillon is danced in this scene. At the Jefferson, their guests will be the off, cers with their women friends There are 16 characters in the cast, and fifty fauxiliaries. At II o'clock there will be given In honor of the invited military guests, reception and dance in the new armory in the City Hall, which promises to be a splendid and brilliant affair.
 The house will be packed as each mem- Der of the Rifles and Volunteers, number ing 125. have pledged himself to dis pose of the seats to the capacity of the Jefferson Theatre. It Is intended to make this performance the event of the season.
