This rule doubtless prevented a number of citizens, who were disposed to return to the Demo craetc fold. from doing so.
 The doors of the Democracy are now wide open All such as were barred from the recent primary because they had not previous election can now return to the party and make themselves eligible for full membership in its future councils.
 There are but two parties in Alaba l. ma--the Democrats and the Republicans At the November election the voters must choose between these organizations. There Is no Populist Party. The great majority of those who comprised the Pop ulists had previously belonged to the Democratic Party. The reforms which they demanded have in the largest meas ure possible been brought about by the Democracy unde: the new Constitution. Now Is the time for the former Populist who has not done so to return to his old allegiance. Thousands have already done this within the past two or three years and The News believes that the great majority of those who have not formally come back to the Democracy Will return at the election next month.

Philadelphia's Old Clothes.

Philadelphia is said to do larger bus mess in old clothes, says The New YorK Commercial-that Is, of course, in the cast-off or second and third hand clothes of men-than any other city on the Amer lean continent. It Is the centre of the trade iE the East, and the buyers of New York--men with their bags from Canal, Hester and Baxter Streets-aud from all over the Middle States, work the City of Brotherly Love for old clothes every business day of the year. These outsiders number nearly 600 on an average The capital invested in the old clothes trade If Philadelphia aggregates $3,5O0, GOO. There are about 1000 flourish ing retail stores. and the average value of their stocks is set by experts in the trade at 5000 Each of a half dozen stores carries goods valued at $l5,O0O or 5000 Each store gives employment to three persons on an average-the pro- prie,or, his wife. and the 'busheler," pr mender In all there are fully 5000 in the retail shops.

MUCH GOLD
Is Reported to Exist Along the Creek
 Banks in Alabama.

Meridian Star
 Mir C. W. Daniels, from Womack Hill, Ala, has arrived in Meridian after a horseback ride of over sixty miles, and bringing with him some of the finest specimens of mineral ore ever seen in Meridian.
 MT Daniels says that his specimens are rich in gold and that assays have been made that run as high as an ounce.
 The mineral is taken from the sand beds along the creeks that are tributary to the Tombigbee in the most mountainous sections If Alabama. The country is exceedingly rough, and few prospect ors nave ever penetrated the canyons about Clarke County. Long years ago It WAS known that the Indians found gold in the, hills of Western Alabama, but tho secret of their wealth died with the older warriors.
 Some months ago MT. Daniels took 3 pan and with an ordinary shaker took out considerable placer gold. He then began to get mineral options on every foot of ground in that section, with the hope that further tetts by metallurgtst1 ) would show Clarke County to be one of the richest gold-bearing countries in the South.
 Specimens of the sand rock will be at once sent to assayists in order to get an accurate estimate of the amount of gol ] they carry.

Andrew Carnegie's secretary says that during July, August and September MT. Carnegie received from 400 to 800 applica- tons for assistance in the establishing of free libraries.
 pr. Bertillon, the discoverer of the measurement system for identifying crim inais is of the opinion that If the present excess of the death rate over the birth rate continues before thirty years are over France will have ceased to exist. This he regarded as likely to result and the principal cause Is oVertaXation.
 Lady Henry Somerset, the English tenn perance reformer, is now 62, but does no' look her years. She has been since 1890 president of the British Women's Tenn perance Association. which is now the land. In 1892 she was president of the Worlds Women's Christian Temperance Union and in 1898 held sway over 800, 900 women as president of the International Association.
 It is said that the retirement from Parliament of William Edward Hartpole Lecky is forced by heart trouble, which has troubled the historian greatly in re- cent years. His retirement will be re- ceived by the stenoGraphers of parlia- ment with certain senso of relief. as the historian M. P. talks so rapidly and con- tinuously with rarely a pause that he is the despair of even the most expert short hand writers. MT. Lecky is 64 years old.
 Governor William Alexis Stone of Penn sylvania, who Is so much in the public eye these days, is a giant in stature, standing feet in his stockings and weighing over 250 pounds His physical dimensions carry with them their own penalties. not the least of which ig that no Pullman car has a berth long enough for him, so that when travelling at night he spend most of his time in the smoking car. As mere boy he served in the Union army and was a second lieutenant before reaching his twentieth birthday.
 Princess Mathilde of Saxony is describ- and of a masculine appearance and gait. She spends most of her time on horse back or driving. In the evening at the kings summer resort she usually takes him out for drive, holding the reins herself. She is highly educated and most men in her circle hate her because one of her favorite amusements is to engage them In conversation on some subject on which she knows they are not informed and then make them feel their ignorance in a humiliating way.

He Has Had Experience.

Our experience in the long ago was that an Alabama 'possum seldom ran to his "lair'-his home in hollow tree-when generally climbed the biggest tree he could find, especially if he was scraw- ny little fellow not worth carrying home, to say nothing of an hours hard work in cutting the tree down.-Dothan Home Journal.
 We can certify that the editor man of The Journal has been all along there. To cut down swamp oak two or three feet in diameter for a scrawny 'possum about as biz as a fox squirrel is calculated to make a hunter say things. And the smallest and leanest ones always climb the biggest trees.

Morgan's Huge Commissions.
Baltimore Sun.

Baltimore sun.
 Jay Cooke, one of the greatest of Amer. ican financiers, negotiated nearly all of the immense loans issued by the United States Government during the civil war. The banking firm of which he was the head handled over s2.ooo. 600 for the Government, and its profits. it is said, did not exceed s20O. 900. What would have been P Morgan's profits if that astute financier had been engaged by the Coy ernment to float series of loans amount ing to g, GOO, 900, 900? It has been stated that MT Morgan received about s1o0, 0o0,- . 900 for financing the United States Steel Corporation with a capital of about H, 400 00O, 600. In another transaction his profit on a s200 900, 600 transaction was es- timated at S10OO0,O 900. Either MT. Morgan has cause to be astounded at MT. Cooke s moderation or MT. Cooke would be justi- fled in expressing astonishment at the very high value which MT. Morgan places upon his services. If MT. Morgan had financed the steel company at the same rates at which MT. Cooke handled the Governments loans during the civil war he would have received only $40 . 900 for his share in the transaction On the other hand if the Government had paid MT. Cooke as handsomely for his services as MT. Morgan is reported to have been paid by the steel company. Mr. Cooke would have netted nearly $50, 900. : 000

TO BArHE OR NOT TO BATHE.

A man has come to the front-and he is a medical scientist. too-who can make converts faster than all the evangelists in the world can. He is a Doctor Rob inson-John Dill Robinson, for short-and he halls from Chicago. His strong point is opposition to bathing. and he is bound to gather in as many followers as Ma homet did.
 The Savannah Press reminds us that the late pr. Dugas of Georgia, insisted that the bathing habit was overdone," and now this Chicago physician and scientist takes up the same theory and tells us all about 1t. Among other things he says, according to The Press. that the skin is built especially for protecting the nerves and blood vessels close to the outer surface of the man. Frequent bath ing, because of congesting the skin and driving the blood from it in turns. causes it to become diseased, so that it does not perform its functions. It is constantly either clogged up in an effort to protect the nerves exposed by the washing away of the skin secretions by water, or it is wide open, subjecting the possessors to colds and all manner of ills"
 We know nothing about the soundness of his reasoning. but when we said that he would make converts we meant 1t. If he should establish sanitarium, one of the regulations being that bathing was not to be expected or allowed, he would need a house big enough to accommodate a Worlds Fair crowd. They would flock to him from the uttermost ends of the earth and would doubtless submit to any rules he might promulgate provided he would keep water away from them.
 Seriously speaking. however. there may be some foundation for Dr. Robinson's theory. We know the great John Wes- ley was wont to quote with approval the expression, Cleanliness is indeed next to godliness,' but we are not sure that he referred to the person and not to the spiritual man. Be that as it may. no one is going to find fault with the advocates of personal cleanliness. but we need not for that reason jump to the conclusion that this Chicago doctor doesn't know what he Is talking about, or that he has no reason for his theory. He at least tells why he thinks excessive washing is hurtfuI, and it is up to other scientists to show wherein his reasoning is faulty. Of one thing we are dead sure: his the- ory will be readily accepted by the small boy, who usually regards all forms of bathing as one of the punishments placed on human beings for not being monkeys. The average boy is sharp-siShted in most respects but he is rarely able to see that he needs washing.
 Perhaps there is a happy mean some- where between those who bathe daily or oftener and those who never risk it at all, but we don't seem to know just where it is. We have heard that there are peo- pie who never bathe, and do not appear to suffer serious harm from 1t, which is going a long way beyond the Robinson theory However, the doctors can quar- rel over it if they like.

A Suggestion.

Some wiseacre advises girls not to place too much faith in fiattery, and because a man calls her an angel. 1t is not neces- sary for her to take lessons on harp We would suggest that she learn to man. age the Tyre, instead.-Huntsville Demo- crat.
 Do you mean before or after she gets him? The trouble, we think, is that she is afraid to risk any experiments before marriage, and afterwards 1t is too late.
