Gently created a stir IN literary cir
Giles, has found her affinity in Lord
Alfred, who lately has been producing
some weak limitations of Oscar Wilde's
poetry.
Lord Alfred Douglas, who is the
second son of the late Marquis OF
Queensbury, visited the United States
last December, but he was not especi-
ally well received there, 1t was after
his return here that he met Miss Gus
tance. but it was not known that any
thing more than ordinary friendship
existed between them until the an
nouncement came today that she had
thrown over George Charles Montagu
and married Lord Alfred.
Lady Douglas is a tall brunette,
with ain intellectual face. Her crown
ing glory is her hair, which is chest,
nut colored. Her literary work follows
the lines laid down by by Ellen Thor
nycroft Fowler and John Oliver Hob
bes. She is the daughter OF Colonel
Custance, late of the Grenadier
Guards.

Local Taxation for Schools

Georgia is about to join Louisiana
by granting to all her militia districts,
school districts or municipal corpora
lions the right of local taxation for
school purposes. A constitutional
amendment Is necessary in Georgia,
and the proposed amendment has
passed the Georgia senate by vote
of So to 1. Its passage in the lower
house of the Georgia legislature is un-
questioned.
The Georgia amendment will enable
any school district in that state to
build school houses, to equip them in
modern manner, and to provide adj
equate salaries for the teachers en-
ployed-in short, to have good public
schools. 1t is not compulsory, but
any district or community that wants
better schools can have them in
Georgia, as they can in Louisiana,
when the Georgia amendment is per-
fected, as it assuredly will be-
The Alabama schools will be poor
indeed, outside of few cities, until
the legislature amends the constitu-
ton by adopting the Louisiana pro-
vision. With an intelligent and Sc
lect electorate, why should not this
be done? Why should not the first
steps be taken by the next legisla-
ture? Does any one know any reason
why a community that desires better
public schools and is willing to pay
for them, should be prohibited from
having them? Other states encourage
such desires, but Alabama sternly re-
presses them. Until there is change
the position of Alabama in the litera-
ty lists will be dangerously near the
bottom. Only North Carolina and
Louisiana keep the name of this state
from that unenviable place, and
Louisiana will not be there long.

Appalachian Forest Reserve.

The senate passed the Appalachian
forest bill, and the committee on ag-
riculture of the house reported it, and
it is on the house calendar in a good
position to be reached and acted upon
at the short session. All that has
been accomplished will fail, so far as
this congress is concerned, unless the
house acts upon the bill. There is
really no reason why it should not.
The bill appropriates s1O,oOO,OoO for

Stand By BIRMINGHAM.

There is too much cosmopolitanism
and too little local patriotism in this
city One hundred thousand people
have suddenly been called hither
from the ends of the land, If not of
|. the earth, and they have not fully ac-
customed themselves to the local stu
alton. They have not the local pride
that Selma or a Boston man pos
sesses.
This is mistake. We should pull
for Birmingham, talk for Birming-
ham, and work for Birmingham, as
the best town on earth. It is local
pride or patriotism that goes far to
make town, and it is this we should
cultivate. We should learn to love
Jones valley and it's great hills and
it's sparkling rivulets, and above all
onr own smoky town itself.
The man who does not take root in
the town he lives in is not good
citizen. He is grumbler of the
chronic sort, and pretty soon he
moves on to some other spot, blessing
none, and as rule gaining nothing
for himself. Birmingham has such
people, and they are not the stuff
that splendid towns are made of.
Let us cultivate local pride-such
pride as Mobile, Montgomery and
Huntsville possess. There is Green's
boro, for example, full of local patriot
ism. Every citizen of that town loves
it. So it should be here. What val
ley is more blessed than this? What
hills are grander-what air is purer
when it has fair chance? There Is
not a community in the world better
endowed by nature than this, and If
we will do our part there will not be
after a while valley fuller of peo-
pie than the one Daredevil John
Jones lent his name to. Stand by your
own town everywhere and every time.
1t is better both for your own self and
| for your town. 1t is patriotism, and
patriotism is one Of the best features
of well-rounded character.

Bishop of Mississippi.

''The Episcopal church of Mississippi Is
soon to have a new bishop In succession
to the late Hugh Miller Thompson, and
among many names mentioned for the
exalted position is that OF the Rev. John
G. Murray of birmingham said
churchman yesterday
"Of course, no one can say who will be
chosen, but the diocesan council which is
called to meet in Jackson in January will
probably select a clergyman of Missis-
sippi
Few rectors decline the episcopal dig
nifty, but many of them, especially in the
south, make sacrifices in accepting. A
city rector with a family, surrounded by
all the comforts of life, certainly has to
give UP a great deal in becoming a
bishop of sparsely-settled diosese. The
bishopric of Mississippi pays. I believe
only $2500 a year. If the salary were
much larger the rector of strong parish
would be making a sacrifice in accepting.
I'm the Catholic church. with its cell
bate clergy, the case is different. But
even there a bishop in poor field, has to
make sacrifices. l remember Cardinal
Gibbons when he was bishop or vicar
apostolic of North Carolina before he
was made bishop of Richmond. He had to
eat hard fare and sleep in long cabins
This sort of discipline may be the making
of Christian leader. but from a worldly
point of view it is sacrifice that few
laymen perhaps appreciate"

great forests spring all=the streams
that water the lowlands Of the south
east, and It is said the rainfall Of
these mountains IS heavier than IN
any other part of the United States,
the northern Pacific coast alone ex-
cepted. Il these forests are pre-
served the damage by floods in the
lowlands will not become excessive,
and the soil in those lowlands will
continue to yield good returns.
Great forest reserves have been es-
tablished by the government in the
far west, but none in the south.
Those established in the west en-
brace 46,O0O,OOO acres, and it is there
fore believed that the government will
not hesitate to establish one along the
Appalachian range, when only 4,000,-
900 acres is called for. All of the
states in which the proposed park
would lie have passed acts ceding to
the national government the right to
acquire title to the lands in question,
and exemDting them from taxation.
The whole matter is up to the house,
and it is believed the bill will be
passed this winter without objection
able amendments. The Burton bill
passed by the senate is the bill that
the friends of great southern park
desire to see become law. The bill
was drawn by Senator Burton Of Kan
sas, and Senator Simmons Of North
Carolina stood firmly behind it in the
senate.

Help the HELPLESS.

Elsewhere In this number will be
found an appeal from the Mercy
Home, which every one should read
and heed. This deserving charity has
no endowment, no pay patients, no as.
sured income beyond small payments
by the county and city. It needs $500
month in order to care for fifty
persons, and it receives but $S5 a
month from the public funds. The re-
mainder should be cheerfully con-
tributed, for there is not in any town
a more deserving or better managed
charitable institution.
Its appeal, too, for a contagious dis
ease building should be met. All the
little ones in the home are endan.
gered, as things stand at present, by
the appearance of single case Of
scarlet fever, whereas such a case
could be readily isolated if the home
had building devoted to that pur
pose. Its lot is ample, and all II
lacks is the price of the proposed
building. Let the well-to-do citizens
of this city act up to their best inten.
tons and capacities.

The Splitting Nuisance.

There is a city ordinance which for
bids splitting on the sidewalks. and this
law, think, applies to splitting in the
street cars" said a prominent citizen
last night.
80 far as I can observe the ordinance
is obeyed quite well on the streets There
is certainly less expectoration on the
sidewalks now than there was before the
ordinance went into effect. But. the law
is hagrantly violated on the street cars.
No gentleman splits In street ear, or
dinanee or no ordinance, and those men
who are not gentlemen should be made to
respect the law and the rules of the street
car company. I was in a South Highlands
car the other day that was so filthy that
it was with difficulty that women kept
their skirts from being soiled."
