no desire to do him harm at that time, and perhaps he would have offered no violence if he had seen the Presi- dent on the following Monday. The possibilities of the case are, however, fully seen and felt.
 The President has been closely guarded by secret service men ever since the assassination of MT McKin ley, and to some extent, since Mr. Gar field was shot down in a railway sta tion, but it is understood that the number of guards have'been again in creased, and that hereafter the Presi- dent will go about closely watched This is unpleasant, but it is a condi- tion that goes with the office Few know, it is stated, the number of cranks who seek to meet the Presi- dent, and not even the President him self knows all.
 All feel that congress was remiss when it failed to pass the bill provid- ing for better protection of the Pres ident and other high officials of the government. The bill grew out of the assassination of MT McKinly, and it never came to vote. It will doubt less be presented again, and no doubt it will be passed by the new congress. Not only should capital punishment be provided for an assassin of Pres ident, but some punishment should await the crank who attempts to force his way armed into the White House.
 The subject is one that in nowise re- lates to one President, but to all, and to the supremacy of law and order, peace and prosperity.

The RenefIcent Cold Wave.

From the Medical Brief
 The cold wave so much dreaded by most people is really a blessing in dis euise. It charges the atmosphere with fresh oxygen and a surplus of free electricity, which produces a most ex- hilarating and beneficial effect upon mankind. Torpid energies are aroused, physical vigor and re, tance increased by the advent of cold wave to such an extent that any incidental damage is more than made up for.
 The American climate has always been recognized as a strong factor in causing the aggressiyeness and enter prise which have lifted our people into the first rank among nations and made us commercially supreme. The cold wave, with it's results of increased en- ergy and yigo~, is a meteorological phenomenon peculiar to this country. Dr. Willis L. Moore, chief of the weather bureau at Washington, in a very able article, explains the origin of this wave.
 It appears that with a high pressure system, rotating with great velocity, large volumes of cold air are drawn down from aboYe the clouds, so that the cold wave is homemade" being simply a production of motion. The s..-stem of motion origina es in the northwest, but the cold ai' comes from above the clouds.
 The colu wave is not only useful for it's beneficial effect upon the human system, but as a cleansing and purify irg agency. It dissipates the deadly carbonic acid gas-the product of res piration and combustion-and the foul effluvia of decaying matter, increasing atmospheric circulation generally and thereby relieving stagnation.

The Word Enalander.


 T see that another freak word is gainS ing prominence" said a philologist This time it is Englander and is ap- piled to an Englishman, with what appro- priateness l cannot see. Now, why Is any sane person guilty of such unpardon- able sin against the language? England CT is clumsy, harsh, and unnecessary When referring to the people English Is vastly preferable to Englanders and l think Englishman much better for an in- dividual. My point is illustrated in the case of the Fins and Laps. Certain wise persons make themselves conspicuous by saying Laplanders and Finlanders. Both words are correct, no doubt but why not say Laps and Fins, thus saving two syl- lables? l read a joke not long ago that seemed to me very much to the point In reply to a question a college professor informed a student that the English lan- guage was no longer taught in universi- ties because it had already grown so vol luminous that it filled six dictionaries, most of these words were slang, and a new word was added every hour of the day. English is a great language and l dare say that if I should come to life fifty years hence, I would not be able to understand the language of my descend ants"

Bio Canals of inc World.

Before the railroad era was inaugur- ated, canals were the fvorite means of communication, and as the population increases in various parts of the world canals seem to be regaining, to some extent at least, lost ground. Germany is especially active in such works, and the expenditure of S100, 1000 on the Erie canal twill come before the voters of New York next month.
 Not including one in China TOO miles long, the great canals of the world are nine in number, namely:
 1. The suez canal, begun in 1859 and completed in 1862
 ?. The cronstadt and St. Petersburg canal begun ip 1871 and completed in 1890
 3 The Corinth canal, begun in 1884 and completed in 1893.
 1. The Winchester ship canal, completed in 1894
 B. The Kaiser Welhelm canal connect ing the Baltic and North seas, completed in 1895.
 6. The Elbe and Trave canal, connecting the North sea and Baltic opened in 19OO
 '. The Weland canal, connecting lake Erie with lake Ontario.
 and g. The two canals United States and Canada, respectively, connecting lake Superior and lake Huron.
 The canals at the Soo are short, but their tonnage exceeds that of any other canal in the world, nearly trip ling that of the Suez canal, which cost $100, 000. Manchester has been made a seaport by it's canal, and Ham burg has become a great commercial city largely through the advantages derived from the canal system of Ger many. If New York votes next month to exr end $101 100000 on it's canal, 352 miles long, there will be an inland waterway from the great lakes to the sea nine feet deep. This will make it the tenth canal of the world. Our own waterway to the sea will, when completed, rank well up among the worlds great inland waterways, all though it will not cost as much as most of them have cost. Our water. way, when completed to Guntersville, will not cost less than fifteen million dollars, and this is no small sum.

City Festivals.

As the county fair, and even the state fair, declines in popularity and the city festival comes into prominence and popularity. New Orleans and St. Louis have long held such festivals, and so has Cincinnati, and the fashion seems to be spreading to all other cities, except, perhaps, the largest and smallest. The street fair" is an outgrowth of this desire to hold each year a popular festival.
 As things are going every town, even New York, wlll hold an annual festival into which will be drawn wide variety of attractions Each city will endeavor to make it's festival bet ter and more enjoyable than that of it's nearest rivals, and thus the fall season will in time include a trip to the nearest central town. Low rates of fare viii be offered, and we will yet witness gatherings in October of a good share of the people who have money to spend for sightseeing pur- poses.
 At preseit we call our festival the State fair, and perhaps the name will be retained, but it will be to all in- tents and purposes our own festival. The annual displays that our business men will make should be bettered each year until all Alabamians come to feel that they cannot afford to stay away from the Birmingham festival. It should be made an annual event that will attract all ages and all sorts of people, and this is doubtless what the managers of the State fair have in mind, and the coming fair will be at least very good beginning.

Special Session of Congress.

It is definitely settled that congress is to meet on November 9 to con slider the tariff provisions called for by the reciprocity treaty with Cuba. The treaty has been duly ratified, but both houses must yet put it's tariff proyis- ions into statute law. It is held that all revenue legislation must be orig mated in the house, and the special session will be expected to do this be- fore the regular session is begun on the first Monday in December.
 The bill that will come up in the house will not have easy sailing. It will be fought by the beet-sugar lobby, and by the protectionists who think the sacred tariff should not be amend' ed on any ground or for any purpose whatever The bill, too, may open the entire subject of tariff revision, and the administration desires to avoid tariff agitation before the next Presi- dential election. Altogether there are breakers ahead, and the special ses- sion will be watched with interest
 If the two houses fail to pass a bill granting lower duties to Cuba on her chief products, we will have a peculiar. situation. The Cubans will be enti- tied to preferential duties under the reciprocity treaty now duly and fully ratified, and yet they cannot secure such duties because selfish interests will not pass the needful bill The truth is, the senate would not have stood up for the constitutional rights of the house. if the protectionists had not adopted that line as their own best hope. They still hope to defeat recip- rocity legislation. They hold that the Dingley tariff is too sacred to be touched even when solemn treaty and the good faith of the country de- mands a revision of rates for the ben eft of Cubans.

HEALTH's DEcALoeUE.

From a French Medical Review.
 1. Rise early, retire early ,and fill your day with work.
 ?. Water and bread maintain life; pure air and sunshine are indispensable to health
 8 Frugality and sobriety from the best elixir of longevity.
 f. Cleanliness prevents rust; the best cared for machines last the longest.
 D. Enough sleep repairs waste and strengthens; too much sleep softens and enfeebles.
 6. To be sensbly dressed is to give free dom to ones movements and enough warmth to be protected from sudden changes of temperature.
 '. A clean and cheerful house makes a happy home.
 s. The mind is refreshed and invigor- ated by distractions and amusement; but abuse of them leads to dissipation and dissipation to vice.
 9. Cheerfulness makes love of life, and love of life is half of health. On the contrary, sadness and Encouragement hasten old age.
 10. Do you gain your living by your in- telect? Then do not allow your arms and legs to grow stiff. Do you earn your bread by your pickaxe? Do not forget to cultivate your mind and to enlarge your thought

OF MINiSTERs' CHILDREN.

From the Baltimore American.
 The impression is quite common that ministers children turn out worse than other peoples children. Were the matter submitted to the average citizen he would be apt thoughtlessly 10 say that min- isters children were exceptionally bad It is one of the instances where a fallacy secures vogue because oft repeated, while no serious effort is made to con- trovert it. Several religious papers are now endeavoring to show that it is an error, and a great one While there will be little difficulty in doing this, it is doubtful if popular faith will be shaken. People will continue to judge by what they believe to be their own eyesight, and the preachers will still be the inno- cent victims As a rule minister's chill dren and the children of other people are on par. Some are good and some are bad because it is their nature so to be- If there is any difference it is in favor of the ministers children, because more care is given to their education by their parents.

City Affairs.

'T have never seen the various depart ments of the city administration work so smoothly together as they are at pres ent," said city officer yesterday.
 Always in the past there has been some department which did not work in entire harmony with the others, but now everything runs smoothly and all de- partments are anxious to aid all the others in getting the best service pos sible.
 "This makes it much more agreeable in every way in the city hall. When there was one rough cog in the wheel 1t jared everything else.

Yarn From Paper Pulp.

From the New York Commercial.
 It is reported that ?. kron, a Germa engineer, has brought 70 T commerce. su.cess a process for the manufacture { yarn from paper pulp, says a London co respondent of the Paper Mill. Exper ments have been conducted fer some tin at works in Spain, and a company ns now been formed to work the process C large scale in xSaony. The inyentid has been patented in Great Britain ar principal countries. The product, whie is called 'sivaln," is capable of beir produced from all fibers that can be col verted into paper.
 The beating, mixing, sizing. and dylr of the paper stuff are done in the usu way. From the engine the stuff goes c the paper-making machine, and the pap formed on a seive is then divided ini small strips by an ingenious contrivanc The width of these strips can be so regi lated as to give the yarn the desired sul stance.
 The strips go over the drying cylinde but are allowed to keep certain per cen age of moisture. They are then reelt up on small wooden reels. These rec keep their moisture for long tim without losing their facility for beir spun. The spinning machinery is supplt by the Maschinenbau Actien Gesellscha Golzern, and the yarn can be woven int different kinds of cloth.
 As a substitute for cheap cloth an linen, the product is regarded as havin a big future, and it is also predicted tn, an excellent market will be found in IT placing jute fibers for packing cloth, { "silvaiin," while being of good lstrengt is said to be cleaner and more regul; than jute fiber. The material can al! be easily impregnated with India rubbe
