A special from Montgomery, Ala,
under date of December 2sth, says:
Col. J. N. Falkner is in receipt Of a
letter from W. II. Council. Of The Col
ored Normal School at Normal Ala,
making a generous offer Of assistance
to the Soldiers Home as followi:
Dear Sir: In wriungto you the other
day IN reference to the pbilanthroplo
work at Mountain Creek for the oVet-
Grams Of the Lost Cause" I neglected
to say that We would be proud 10 assist
you in your laudable enterprise If you
should desire US. We can furnish you at
any time ten or fifteen carpenters,
painters, blacksmiths and Others who
might be useful in building up your
soldiers home.
We would be glad to work a week or
ten days without money and without
price. The shoe department will be
glad to furnish you with at least a doz-
en- pair of shoes a year for these grand
old men who followed Lees tat,ered
banners down to Appomattox, leaving
their footprints in blood over the snow
covered hills Of Virginia.

gray-haired veterans of the '.Lost
Causen and l feel that when they pass
away, and when their old slaves have
passed away, that in a me the
power of the balance VIII eel of Southern
society will be gone.
The propriety of this offer on my
part may be called into question by
those who do not measure slavery as |
do. l feel that slaves got more out Of
slavery than their masters did, in that,
the slaves we've helped from the lowest
state of barbarism to Christian citizen

world ever knew. Very truly yours,

OBJECTS TO BRYAN.
Mrs. Bennett Doesn't Want Him
to Qualify as Executor.

New Haven, Conn, Nov. I'm the
probate court today VIM. J. Bryan was
admitted to act as executor of the will
of Pkilo S. Bennett, an objection to him
made by Mrs. Benefits counsel being
overruled. The amount of the bond was
fixed at $350,000. Counsel on both sides
indicate that an appeal will be taken
Court proceedings opened at a ques-
ton from Judge Cleaveland, who pre-
sided, as to whether counsel desired to
be heard on the form of the decree to
be entered in the case. After some dis
cussion it was agreed that a confer
ence between counsel on both sides next
week should determine the form of de-
cree to be submitted to the court for
approval.
Judge Stoddard asked if counsel for
the executors would state definitely
whether Mr. Bryan intended to qualify
as an executor. He pointed out that If
Mr. Bryan declined to do so, Mr.. Sloan,
partner of Mr.. Bennett, would remain
sole executor.
Mr. Stoddard said: 'If your honor
should hold that that is law, l shall ad,
wise my clients to take an appeal 10 emo
that matter. Under some other clauses
of the will, certainly the twelfth clause,
Mr.. Bryan takes as trustee and not as
an Individual, certain moneys. As trustee
under that section of the will it will be

ANOTHER DIAMOND co.
Bank Commissioner Albaugh Re-
ceives Complaint from Salina.

State Bank Commissioner Albaugh
has received information that a dia-
mond tontine company, which were
fashionable a few years ago until it
was decided that they were too much
on the get-T1ch-quick order, is doing
business in Kansas without authority.
The information comes from John j.
Eberhardt oe Salina. one of the famous
Eberhardt brothers, who obtained the
literature of the concern setting forth
it's plan. and has forwarded it to Mr..
AlbaE-h.
The company is known as the Hi
nois Tontine Investment company, and
it has its headquarters at Collinsville,
III. According to it's literature, fee
of $125 is first paid into the company,
and after that $1.25 a week for GA
weeks. or a total of $50. All of the
first eight payments and % cents of
each subsequent payment goes to the
company, and the balance goes into
a diamond fund. The contracts then
mature like the contracts in some of
the home-building cooperative con-
Germs which have been looked upon
with suspicion. In the order that the
contracts mature the holders are
promised a 5000 diamond or its equiv
ale0t in cash.
OF course a majority of all such con-
tracts are allowed to lapse, and it is
upon this eact that most of these COM
panies do business. Bank Commits
sioner Albaugh does not believe it pos
sible for A company to carry out such
a contract unless there is some catch

CURTIS is AFTER 1T.
Believed That He Inspired Story
About Federal Judgeship.

Has Congressman Curtis got his eye
upon the federal judgeship himself? A
story suggesting Mr.. Curtis as dark
horse candidate was telegraphed from
Washington to a Kansas City paper
following Mr.. Curtis arrival in Wash
ington a few days ago, but it was look
ed Jpn as simply idle gossip by most
of the politicians.
Now comes the report from Leaven-
worth that Mr.. Curtis let drop hint
along the same line while discussing
the federal judgeship matter with
Lucien Baker shortly before he left for
Washington. Ex-senator Baker is him
self a candidate for the appointment
1t is asserted that Mr.. Curtis while dis
cuSsing the matter with Senator Baker
remarked, Il guess Long or 1 will have
to take that judgeship in order to make
things harmonious"
Those who have heard this now be-
lieve that Mr.. Curtis is really a candi-
date for the appointment and thinks it
may be possible for him to land it, be-
cause such proceeding would open the
way for new congressman in the First
district without fight upon him. Or,
if he cannot get the job and Senator
Long would accept it, he would endorse
Long for the place in order to create a
vacancy in the senatorship with the
understanding that he should have
Longs influence for the appointment
The appointment would have to come
from Governor Bailey, however, which
makes this view very improbable, al
though it is not without the range OF
possibilities in politics.
At any rate, the possibility that Mr.
Curtis may be a candidate for judge is
giving the politicians something to Won
der about

CITY CROWDING.
1t Is an Important Factor in the
Present Growth of Crime.

The modern crowding of the popula-
ton into cities is a factor of the frst
Importance Enthusiasts extravaganza
" praise the virtues of country pOpu-
lations, and as extravagantly dispar-
age tie moral condition of cities. This
excites contradiction. and in the con-
troverSy the fact is overlooked that
the profound changes, some beneficial
and some pernicious, have been and
are being silently wrought by the ag-
gregation into cities of so large part
of the population. We are entering
upon the third generation of hotbed
city life. The offspring of those whose
occupations are sedentary. who use
stinulants. lead irregular and excited
lives, must. with few exceptions. suf-
fer from Inherited irritability of the
nervous system. An abnormal strength
and ecccntricity of impulse must be
the result. and this is fostered by city
life.
A lamentable change has passed
over the country with regard to the
learning of trades Most temDeraments
require manual labor in the earlier
years of active life, and much exercise
at all periods. Labor unions determine
the number of apprentices which may
be taken, and this number is so small
that It is impossible for the large ma
jority of growing boys to secure either
the knowledge of trades or the phys
ical and mental benefits of steady en-
plOyment. Counting rooms and shops
are crowded with applicants for every
vacant place. while thousands are left
to roam the streets having neither
trade, profession nor knowledge of
business.
The struggle for success in society,
finance, politics, literature, applied
science and art grows more fierce as
the cities grow larger; the prosperous
have often paid too dear for the
whistle: those who fail are, according
to temperament. respondent or desper-
ate, and the consequence is a steady
procession to the sanatorium or the
prison. And the number of neurotic.
romantic, pampered youth of both
often underestirnates. the city often
overestimates; and the prematurely
blase youth is in an abnormal condi-
ton which feeds upon itself Kinder
such circumstances the very qualities
which made good man may make his
son a curse to the community.-Cen-
