TO HAVE A coADJUToR BISHOP.
Cincinnati Will Probably Haves High
 Dignitary By Easter.

Cincinnati January 1.-The official an- nouncemenf that the office of the coad- tutor for the arch diocese of Cincinnati has been created by the Roman propa- ganda, has been received at the local episcopal residence, and it is very likely that Cincinnati will have a coad- tutor bishop before next Easter. An early meeting will be called for all irremovable rectors and councillors of the arch-dio- cese, and these will name thelr candidates for office.
 After the meeting of priests the bishops of the province will be called to meet at the arch-episcopal residence and make their recommendations.
 Finally the archbishops of the United States will prepare list and then the three lists will be submitted to the pro- paganda at Rome for consideration. The college for the propaganda will make its recommendation to the pope who an nounces the appointment personally. It Is believed that the choice of the irremov- able rectors and consultors are Bishops H. Moeller of Columbus T. s. Byrne of Nashville and c. P Macs of Covington.
 The name of Bishop T. Conaty, presi- dent of the Catholic university at Wash ington, D. C., has also been mentioned in connection with the coadjutorship

TEACHERS ENDORSE
 SCHURMANN' VIEWS
President of Cornell Speaks 10
 Nebraska Pedagogues
TALKS OF THE PHILIPPINES
Reiterates His Views Previously Ex- pressed and Calls for Vote on the Subject-Endorseme
 Is Made Unanimous.

Lincoln, Neb., January 1.-Jacob Gould schurmann, president of Cornell univer- sity, spoke tonight to 1900 members of the Nebraska Teachers association on the subject "Our Philippine Policy" Ills address in part was reiteration of his views heretofore expressed, but he was probably more outspoken in his declara- ton for the ultimate independence of the islands. At his request the teachers by a rising vote expressed their opinions, a majority endorsing his views. He said the problem in the islands was a mani- fold one of a military. political economic and ecclesiastical nature. On the political of the civil commission and declared the Filpinos in three years would be enjoying as much political liberty as Americans, as al the rights of the constitution have been extended except trial by jury, and the bearing of arms. The first they did not want, and the latter would be forth coming.
 In regard to the economic aspect, he thought the United States had sinned by neglect. He criticised congress for not providing for a stable currency. 'It will be a burning shame" he said, 'if the present congress adjourns without enact ing a currency law for the islands"
 Other shortcomings of this government, he said, were the keeping up of trade bar riers and the sending of so many teach CTS from this country at the expense of the Filipinos, in spite of all protests.

J. VAN ARDEL IS
 NOW IMPROVING
WHITE WAITER WHO WAS SHOT BY GREEK THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS WILL PROBABLY RECOVER.

J. Van Ardel, the white waiter who was shot and thought to be mortally wounded by George Paris, Greek fruit vender, was reported to be improving last night. Yesterday for the first time since the shooting, which occurred on the night before Christmas, he spoke to his att tendants at St. Vincent's hospital. The bullet went through his chin and neck and for days he was rendered speeches.. The physicians now believe the man has good chance for recovery.
 In view of the probable recovery of Van Ardel Paris, the Greek. has been released from jail on bond which was given yesterday.
 The shooting occurred on the corner of Nineteenth street and Third avenue when the streets were crowded with people, and it is said the trouble arose out of Van Ardels attempt to demolish or in some way disturb the fruit stand of the Greek. Paris claims that he was struck on the head with a brick during the al- tercation which followed and he drew revolver and shot Van Ardel. The wound- ed man fell across the car tracks on Nineteenth street, where he was picked ID by friends and carried to the hospital.

REMINGTON TYPEWRITER.
Headquarters Opened In Birmingham
 for This Standard Machine.

It will doubtless be matter of interest to the many friends of the Remington Standard Typewriter. as well as to the public generally, that there will be open ed in Birmingham a regular headquarters for the handling of this great writing machine, where will be kept at all times a full and complete stock of the newest and latest models of the Remington, as we'll as full line of supplies of all kinds necessary for the comfortable and suc- cessful operation of the typewriter.
 There will also be maintained a we'll equipped repair department, with expert men in charge. where only the highest class work will be done and at prices as reasonable as Is consistent with such grade of work.
 A sufficient number of typewriters to meet the demand will also be kept for rent, for those who may need extra ma chimes during busy seasons. These ma chimes will, of course, be kept in perfect order and rented at the same prices and on the same terms as prevail everywhere in the country.
 An Employment Department will be in operation, through which stenographers and typewriters can secure positions and proprietors can obtain such help in that line as they may desire. No charge is to be made for this service. either to the employe or the employers.
 III ldCt IL IS ifltuutu tO open III tnlS city as complete a typewriter establish ment as is found anywhere in the United States: which will doubtless be head quarters for the entire state. for the maintenance of which the services of several experienced men will be required. As yet no location has been settled upon. but 1t will be as central and convenient as can be obtained. Until then the indul- gence of the many users of the Reming- ton is craved. A large stock of new and latest improved models of the Remington, direct from the factory, is now on the road and it is expected that in a very few days everything will be in perfect shape to take care of the Remington in- terests in this city. This step has been brought about by the constantly growing and increasing demand for this machine in the south generally and in Birming- ham particularly; and it is determined that the Birmingham office shall be such as this great and growing city deserves. and that means. second to none in the country.
 Mir. w. T. Crenshaw. the general repre- sentative of the Remington in the south, Is here at the Morris hotel. looking after the establishment of the headquarters. Further announcements will follow as ar- engagements are effected. sss

To enable the pa- tient to breath more freely and easier oxyhea was administered frequently. Mrs. Cookery told the governor and her physicians when she suffered the relapse Tuesday night that she could not get well, and that it was useless to give her medi- cine. but she was submissive to any treat ment they chose to use.

ANOTHER OIL PORTRAIT. History Department Is Given Picture of Gov. and Senator Fitzpatrick.

Montgomery, January 1.-tSpecial)- history department was today enriched by an oil portrait of Governor and Sena- tor Benjamin Fitzpatrick presented by Mrs. Evelyn Fitzpatrick Munger of Los Angeles Cal, whose first husband was the only son of the governor by his sec ond wife. The portrait was painted while he was governor of Alabama from 1S4l to 1S45. and represents him in his prime. It recalls the golden age of the Alabama political drama, when Fitzpatrick, King and Lewis and others of scarce less note were in the blush of their rising fame. Fitzpatrick was twice appointed to the senate, in 1S4S to succeed Dixon H. Lewis, and in 1853, to succeed William R. King. He served out that term and was then elected to a full term, which carried him to secession when he withdrew with his colleagues, although opposing secession himself. After the war he was president of the constitutional convention of 1865. and died in 1869.
 The portrait gallery of the department is rapidly becoming a notable collection and has now reached the point where ev- cry one feels that it Is an honor to have the pictures of their ancestors and friends on it's walls.

Washington, January 1.-At today's ses- sion of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, it was decided that hereafter any section of the associa- tion may hold a summer session inde- pendently of the association, the latter to defray the expenses up to $50.

 Another interesting paper read today was by Prof. w, J.
