ports of the trial of former President
 Kimball and Teller Rose of the Seventh National bank, charged with over-certi-
 flcation. The defendants pleaded guilty.
 Everybody knows in Wall street that over-certification is regularly practiced by the banks that cater to stock market business. It is considered absolutely necessary That is because so much of Wall streets business is done on credit. If you want to know the banks that over- certify checks in amounts anywhere from one to twenty million dollars a day just look up those that have large brokerage accounts It is done for a matter of few hours only, and the brokers always
 make good. It is an unwritten law in
 Wall street that broker must first take care of his banker It Is unlawful to certify checks in excess of the founds on deposit, but that doesn't matter where the interests of Wall street are involved. bank that practiced over-certification was absorbed year or so ago by bank that did not, and in the news reports of the transaction 1t was mentioned that brokers accounts amounting to some twenty or thirty millions had been with drawn. No explanation was given. The reason was that the consolidated bank would not over-certify, and the brokers took their accounts forthwith to banks that would. This knowledge Is so very general in Wall street among profession al people that one wonders how 1t can have escaped the banking authorities that had been practiced on an enormous scale in Wall street. The only reason the Seventh National bank people came to account was that their bank failed along with Marauand x Co.

MARKET WORKING
 IN GOOD POSITION No Occasion for Predicted Weakness of Securities GOSSIP OF WALL STREET Some of the Big Concerns Are Think ing Seriously of Establishing
 Offices on Ocean Liners Us-
 ing Wireless System.
BY W. G. NICHOLAS.

New York January 24-(Special 1.-The Securities market Is gradually working into stronger position. It has had it's reaction after the sharp advance which began just about a month ago, and is again moving up. Some of the financial writers and their allies. the professional element on the exchange, profess to see occasion for weakness in the fact that the multitudinous public Is not in evi- dence to the extent they seem to think necessary for a sustained bull move ment This sort of opinion is not the most valuable, however, for the same people were bearishly disposed two years ago because the great public was In the market They were wrong either then or now. The fact Is that they were right the first time and wrong this. The mar ket two years ago went to pieces because it was over-bought by tens of thousands of lightweight people and amateur spec ulators. This year the buying of stocks is of the best kind. Substantial people are under the stocks and bonds. There is less of sheer speculation than at any time

Poll Tax and voters.

The people of Birmingham are said to be unusually slow in paying their poll tax this year. So far only about 1000 have been to the courthouse and settled this account held against them by the county. Last year about 5000 paid their tax. To be allowed the great preroga- tive of an American citizen" this year. one must pay his poll tax before the first of February. The candidates are now after their friends to lose no time in paying this tax.
 Speaking of candidates, Birmingham Is full of them There are about four to one more candidates than offices, and tha: means there will be many disappoint- ments. The Birmingham offece-seekers are by no manner of means the kind who 'let the grass grow under their feet" They are out now early and late every day. And they are after the coveted votes. One candidate has little book. and in this book he writes the names of all who promise to vote for him. Then" he explains, 'I don't have to see him again.
 Municipal politics are slowly dropping to warm temperature. Even the cool breezes of winter will be tempered when they pass over Birmingham.

Juliet and opheIia.

From the London Daily Chronicle.
 Clopton House, near Stratford-on-Avo the residence of the late Sir Arthur Hodg- son, has some strange and tragic mem ories. If tradition may be believed, inci- dents occurred there in Shakespeares own time which may have suggested to him the vault scene in Romeo and Juliet without going to the novel of Bandello or other Italian sources and the drowning of Ophelia. The traditional Warwickshire original of Juliet was Charlotte Clopton. and she was taken i'll during an outbreak of the plague Tn Stratford, apparently died and wus buried in the CIopton fam fly vault The burial was, however, pre- mature, for when the vault was opened a week later to receive another coffin the bearers saw Charlotte Clopton leaning against the wall in her grave clothes. And when they looked nearer" says William Hewitt, who tells the story in his Visits to Remarkable Mansions" "she was indeed dead, but not before, in the agonies of despair and hunger. she had bitten a piece of flesh from her white, round arm"
 Margaret Clopton, like Ophelia, fell in love with man who afterward repudi- ated her. Her mind became unhinged and she drowned herself In pool in the leafy grounds of her home. When Shakespeare was boy the tales about the tragic ends of Charlotte and Margaret Clopton must have been the theme of common gossip, ana were likely to make profound i'm. pression on his mind They have never been forgotten in Warwickshire. and the ghosts of Margaret and Charlotte have long neen supposed to wander through the Clopton corridors. Even the genial spirit of the late Sir Arthur Hodgson was not able completely to exercise them.

One on the Railroad.

A gentleman in the city hall yesterday. in reninescent mood, talked for an hour of the early days of the railroads. He re- lated little incident that occurred in New York state before the days of print ed passes. At that time farmer who owned an extensive place could have, up- on request, the trains stopped at his farm.
 Upon one occasion a farmer went to the office of the president of a certain road when he was asked to take a note from the official to neighbor for the official He consented to do so and the note, which contained only few lines. was written. The president wrote such a miserable

AS TO WIVES AND HUSBANDS.
Unmarried Women on Domestic Sub
 jects Not Taken Seriously.

From the Chicago Inter-Ocean
 An unmarried woman undertook short time ago to tell the mothers of one of our women's clubs how to bring up their sons. She was not strikingly successful. Last Monday another unmarried woman undertook to tell the wives of one of our women's clubs how to manage their hus- bands. It does not appear that she was striSingy successful, either
 The trouble with the unmarried wom- en who undertake to read papers or such subjects is that their knowledge of the mothers and wives they are trying to advise is practical. Unmarried women, in the very nature of things. are not quaIi- fled by experience to give mothers and wives any new or valuable points on the management of sons and husbands
 Miss Zona Valance Is the latest hus- bandless woman with views on the ques- tion of the proper management of hus- bands. They were expressed in a paper she read at Hull house on 'The Econ omic Dependence of Man Upon Woman She told at length of mans dependence upon woman in various ways-as a child upon his mother. as young man upon his sweetheart, and as a husband upon his wife. Then she told what she thought women should have for their protecting care of men.
 Miss Valance would have all married women pensionec by the state She is liberal enough to say that the woman should share the pension with her hus- band. But 1t was on woman's right to enjoy an equal share of the family in- come that Miss Valance insisted most resolutely.
 A wife, she held, cannot say to her husband, I'll serve you no more-Il serve somebody else' The only resource of the wife and mother is through the law. If the mother will work for her po- litical rights. she will receive them. Work for political rights. urged Miss Valance and some ladies cried. Hear! Hear.'
 But at this juncture the practical wife and mother in the person of Mrs. Black

welder, took occasion to say: ''It is a fact I think, that men are greatly im- proving. Instead of begging for money now, woman simply dips in her hands and takes 1t out. The class of husbands q who favor this sort of living Is increas- ing"
 And this is pretty close to representing the situation as 1t really is. Men are im- proving. It is quite possible that they will never rise to the ideal of the unmar- ried woman who reads papers before wo- mans clubs, but the average American husband is, as rule not only tolerably kind to the average American wife, but tolerably liberal with her in all of his dealings.

Those Negro Hlehwaymen.

HWY ii'9hF0J
 The chief topics of conversation and discussions in the public buildings of Birmingham at the present time are poll tics and the arrest and conviction of the negroes charged with highway robbery.
 On account of the many hold-ups In Birmingham during Christmas week and up to the time the capture Of the gang of five negroes was accomplished the trials of the negroes are being followed yer closely There is not doubt but thar the verdict that three of them must hang has met with general approval There is probably not a case in the state where a man has been hanged for highway rob- bery. The fact that these negroes have been sentenced to die for their crime has, therefore, aroused more than ordinary in- terest. Many people were not aware that the Alabama laws provided for a man to be hanged for highway robbery.
 North Carolina has a law making it a hanging offense for a burglar who enters a house after 10 o'clock at night This law is based on the theory that if man will enter the home of some one during the night and burglarize 1t he would not stop at shooting any occupant.
