Transvnalers May Surrender.

London, April 8. The AS
sociated Press understands that
the peace negotiations are pro-
crossing satisfactorily SO far as
the Transvaalers are concerned,
but the latest :dvices indicate
that there is small probability of
the Free Staters surrendering IN a
body. The negotiations thus far
have been mainly explanations Of
British intention. 1t has been plain
to the leaders that their surrender
will not entail Punishment and
this has been potent influence.
The Leading Transvaalers urge
their allies to arrange peace terms.
The inner circles of the War Of
fee believe that if the TransvaaI-
ers agree to surrender, the back
bone Of Boer resistance will be
broken and that the Free Slater 9 .
opposition will soon be overcome.

Infatuated,

Detroit, April 1O.-What the

in the chain of circumstancial evi-
dence that they are weaving about
Prof. Joseph M. Miller, aged AZ,
music teacher and married man
with n family, who Is under sus-
picicn of brutally numbering Miss
Carria M. Jsnnett, on Thirteenth
street, just before midnight, was
diseovesed this evening. 1t is a
blood stained hatched which was
found in the drawer of q table in
Millers kitchen. There is now
the following circumstantial evil
dence against Milter, who was the
girls music teacher and had paid
her such marked attention that
her father had asked him to keen
away from the house. When he
was examined at the Grand River
avenue police station today what
are supposed to be blood stains
were found on his shirt sleeves,
his trousers, shoes, hat and over,
coat; towel was discovered in his
kitchen with what are supposed to
be blood stains on it; when he was
asked for an explanation of the
stains on his clothing he gave
none and finally the bloodstained
Ratchet was found tonight.
Miss Jennett, who was % years
Of age, and who would have be-
come mother in q few months
was most brutally done to death
Just before IL o'clock last night.
She was felled by terrible blow
on the head, which broke her
neck and her throat was cut from
ear to ear. A blow from some
instrument made hole in the
middle of her forhead and behind
her left ear was deep stab wound
evidently made by the same in
strument that was used to cut her
throat. In addition to these cash
wounds a heavy blow had been
struck on the side of her face,
fracturing the cheek bone. Her
mutllated body was found in this
condition in lonely spot on
Thirteenth street. 1t wss taken
to the morgue and not identified
until this morning
Miss Jennett left her home last
evening to attend a meeting of
the Rebekah Lodge, of which she
was a member. She left the meet
ing about 10 o'clock and was not
seen again alive. Her parents
were alarmed at her not coming
home and when they heard of the
murder became fearful that it
might be their daughter. Mr..
Jennett hurried to the morgue and
there identified the mutilated
body. The police were working
on the case and questioned him
about the girl. He told them of
her infatuation for Prof. MilIed
and the teacher was placed under
arrest.

THE PRESIDENTS SPEECH.
In his address in the auditorium
today, President Roosevelt spo Ike
ut some length of the remarkable
progress which has been made bv
the South, and especially South
Carolina since the late war. He
emphasized the necessity of unity
of action between all of the people
of the United States in order that
the marvellous era of prosperity
which is now upon the country
might be perpetnated.
Probably, however, the portion
of his address which was listene i
to with the closest attention and
which called forth the most un-
stintcd applause, was that which
treated of the absolute disappear
ance of all sectional lines in the
nations feelings and affection.
la this connection he said:
sit is to me peculiar privilege
to speak here in your beautiful
city. My mothers people were
from Georgia; but before they
came to Georgia before the revo-
luton, in the days of colonial rule,
they dwelt for nearly q century in

"Charleston is not only a typical
Southern city; it is also city
whose history teens with events
which link themselves to Ameri-
can history as whole. In the
early colonial days Charleston was
the outpost of our people against
the Spaniards, in the South. In
the days of the revolution there
occurred here some of the events
which vitality affected the out
come of the struggle for inde-
pendence, and which impressed
themselves most deeply upon tho
popular mind. 1t was here that
the tremendous, terrible drama of
the Civil War opened.

Kamchatka has many volcanoes. the
only ones in Russian territory that are
still active. They are unusually impress

though they are clad in eternal snow
and are covered with glaciers. The vol
canic eruptions are very grand, but be-
ing witnessed only by a few natives or
Russian officials they awaken but little
attention i'm the west. About forty of
the mountains are of volcanic origin, but
of these not more than twelve are still

One of these remarkable eruptions oc-
Cured last fall at the Avacha volcano,
Kamchatka. The eruptions were accom-
panied by subteranean rumblngs that
were audible for sixty miles. These phe-
nomena are often attended by violent
earthquakes which some times raise the
waves to a great height flooding the
coast and sweeping away the tents of
the natives. This was the case during
the recent eruption.
The accounts that. have been sent to
st. Petersburg of this eruption say that

POINTS ON ADVERTISING.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
Often the question arises how and where
to advertise. The first and best way to
reach the public is by and through the
newspapers. Some dealers simply con-
tribute an income to the publishers with
out even receiving fair interest on their
investment. They buy space for so much
per inch; but 1t isn't the amount of inches
you buy so much as what you do with
worth to you.
In the first place, remember that your
advertising does you no good unless it is
seen; not much good if seen and not read,
and very little good If seen and read un-
less it gives good impression.
Select a certain space in the paper, put
all your verbal. energy into that space,
change the matter. each insertion; make
1t earnest, happy, chic, full of snap and
vigor, good in sense and good In appear
ance; make 1t original in design and text;
let 1t be your space and represent you.
Make It stick out bold and strong in con-
trast, and above all make the reading
interesting; make it different from all
others. Be real talk right out as you
would in your store; be familiar, personal
and full Of faith in your offerings. The
readers will soon get on to the fact that
your space is part of what they subscribe
for. and instead of your advertisement
having TO hunt the reader, the reader will
hunt the advertisement. You will be
known as the merchant with an interest
ing pen. with good, real interesting
goods, and that's doing business in the

LARGEST PAINT MILL
For the Manufacture of Both Ground
and Mixed Paints.

1t Is a fact not generally known that
In Birmingham the largest paint manufac-
tory in the South is located, it being the
only one in Alabama. We refer to the
Birmingham Paint Mills, whose factory
and salesrooms are located at 2017 Third
avenue. They occupy the entire three
story building at the above number, and
have recently acquired by consolidation
the factory of the Dixie Paint Company
at 1716 to 1922 Tenth avenue, North. At
this latter plant they manufacture only
Dry Mineral Paint, which Is used large
ly by Railroads for painting cars, bridges,
etc. 1t is also well adopted for roofs and
out houses making them semi freproof.
With the exception of one at Chatta-
nooga this is the only Mineral Paint Fac
tory In the South. and the goods are dis
tributed throughout the entire United
States. Mineral paint is made from Red
Mountain ore, which on account of its
bright red color and peculiar chemical
qualities makes the best paint of the
kind in the country. The Birmingham
Paint Mills are also agents for the largest
varnish houses In the United States and
Canada, and make a speciality of fine
carriage goods.
The firm has recently been re-organized
and their capital stock increased to $50, 900
with the following officers: w. II.
Priegel. president; DR., A. Eubank, vice
president; w. Il. Doane, secretary and
treasurer. All these gentlemen are well
known and progressive business men, and
it Is easy to predict bright future for
the Birmingham Paint Mills
At their Third avenue factory they grind
paints in all colors and keep the largest
stock of painters supplies in the city.
As manufacturers for the trade they
claim that buying their raw materials II,
car lots can discount any bill of paints
offered by firms In the North. While be-
ing within easy telephone communication
