Naval Academy Drill.

IAN infantry drill by the battalion OF
midshipmen commanded by Lieutenant
Commander Fullam, at the United States
Naval Academy gave the members Of
the board Of visitors an opportunity Of
seeing another phase of the work done
at this institutions" said a man who re-
Gently visited Annapolis.
THE foot drill as performed by the
midshipmen is always of the highest ex-
cellence, and the instruction this year
has been under Lieutenant Commander
Fullam, a most competent drill officer.
Consequently the exhibition was every
thing that the most competent judge
could desire. The midshipmen wore
their attractive white uniforms, with
white leggings and black belts, and the
Naval Academy band was present, the
members in scarlet and blue full dress.
The battalion was as large as usual
for, although the first class has gradu-
afed and left the institution, the larger
number now admitted into the lower
classes brings the whole up to the usual
proportions.

BRUNSWICK STEEL PLANT.
Engineers and Mohawk Company Have
Trouble About Money.

Special to the Atlanta Constitution.
Brunswick, Ga, June 4-Work on the
mammoth steel plant In Brunswick was
today called off by the Garrett Cromwell
Engineering company of Cleveland, o.
The following telegram was received this
morning by Charles P. Turner. the resi-
dent engineer:
lowing to the failure on the part of
the Mohawk Steel company officials to
make their second payment on our en-
cheering fee. now past due, we find it
necessary to suspend all work In connec-
ton with their plant at Brunswick You
will, therefore. proceed to close up your
affairs at that plant and return to Column
bus at once" Signed Garrett Cromwell
Engineering Company"
For the past month this engineering
company has had a force of hands at
work on the plant and most of the en-
cheering work has been completed. Be
sides the employees of this company the
Mohawk people have also had large
force of hands at work clearing away the
site. laying piling for the foundation, etc.
None of the officials of the Mohawk COM
pany are In the city and cannot be seen
for an interview on the subject.

Streets and Salaries.

If Birmingham can afford to raise
the salary of it's mayor fifty per cent,
1t can afford to take better care of its
streets. 1t can afford to make better
ways for the use of the many, and it
can afford to do enough sprinkling TO
keep down great clouds of dust, to say
nothing of little flurries in sand and
filth particles.
The cost of sprinkling widely could
be apportioned, the city paying one
half and the residents of sprinkled
district the other half, and perhaps
such a division of the burden would
be just and equitable, or otherwise all
streets would be entitled to a share
In the privilege. The humblest street
is not overload of dirt, and II the city
would organize a sprinkling brigade,
or, better still, would vote an allow
ance on a block basis to districts de-
string the service of the water carts,
every locality could arangre its own
service. This, perhaps, would be bet
ter than the building-up of a new pat
ronage department.
Many streets in this town are sadly
neglected. Great chasms torn out by
the winters storms go unified and
depressions in the chirt exist in nearly
every street, to be filled by every pass
ing shower, entailing mud, and later
still, much dust. 1t Is not good policy
to let the cherted streets fall into de-
cay, because it entails heavier expen-
ditures later on. There is no money
saved-on the contrary, such neglect
is as wasteful as 1t is distressing. Let
the movement towards higher salaries
be checked, and let all moneys that
can be spared be spent on the streets
that the people use daily in coming
and going and in the course of bust
ness. Rarely have the streets been in
worse condition, and II the city treas
ury be so low that they cannot be
mended, then surely it is too low to
justify the addition of fifty per cent
to the mayors salary.

was then a lull. but soon afterwards
Captain Montgomery. president of the
mill, was inspecting it, and he fell
from the second story and never re
covered from the injuries he received,
dying in a short lime And on Monday
last came along without warning a
tornado that tore off two floors of one
Of the mills of the corporation, and de-
molished one hundred cottages sur
rounding the other mill
But the corporation is resolute, and
it has determined to put the two mills
in operation as speedily as possible,
although it has never known year
of success or a year without accident.
Resoluteness will defeat any hoo
doc, and the Gainesville mills deserve
success after twenty years of i'll for
tune and accident Fhe blow of last
Monday would have discouraged less
determined stockholders, but those Of
the Gainesville corporation have lost
no faith in their enterprise. and in a
short time all marks of the great dis
aster will be obliterated.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES.
Smoke Consumers.

IF there is any one question that de-
serves more attention than all others at
the hands of the Commercial club at pres
ent," said prominent real estate dealer,
1T is the question of smoke consumers on
plants within the city limits of Birming-
ham.
II actually believe that the smoke
nuisance Is responsible more than any
other factor for the comparatively low
values of real estate in the downtown
district. Atlanta would not have stood il
one tenth as long as Birmingham has.
Smoke consumers are not such an expen-
sive addition to a factory after all and
it seems to me there would be more dam
age suits for the bad effects of smoke than
there are. If it could be ascertained ae-
curately believe the damage to property
in Birmingham from smoke would amount
to a million dollars a year"

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
When the inventor was still a youth his
family lived for many months of the year
at Pontecchio, near Bologna, where, In
the garnet. the young William worked ten
hours out of the twenty-four at myster-
ious appliances, which his parents re-
garded as perfectly useless. II will throw
them all out of the window" his irate
father would declare when his son had
shown himself more than usually stupid
at his music, for-can 1t be believed ?-the
elder Marconi dreamed Of turning his son
into a musician!
At last the day came when the adoles-
cent visionary was leaving for England

out wires" he announced. with his ac-
customed simplicity and brevity. His
good friends smiled and wished him a
pleasant trip. Only one person believed
in his projects-the carpenter who had
assisted him in all his experiments, and
even he had misgivings. When his patron
left he said, "Signorino Qittle signor) 1

conquered fame and fortune" and went
back to his work expecting nothing fur
Their. One fine day ten bright golden SOW
ereigns rolled into his lap, the first fruits
of the ''signorinos" discovery.

ANOTHER SET OF OFFICE RULES

From the Inland Printer
The office manager of a large manu-
featuring concern recently handed the fol-
lowing to each of his clerks:
Find the easy, the quick and the safe
way to do things. BY this method study
how to accomplish ten per cent or even
twenty-five per cent more of results for a
given expenditure of strength
Let nothing go over till tomorrow that
ought to be disposed of today. Let no
customer or possible customer, expect
to hear from us in the morning, or In the
next mail, and be disappointed.
Over the telephone let us be especially
polite, SO as to bring ourselves in contrast
with many telephone operators, office
boys and others, who seem to wish to in
suit you because they are at safe dis
tance.
Study your work so as constantly to
make 1t quicker, safer, better. Please
go to your chiefs with suggestions for
the Improvement of our service. Please
come to me with them.

Alexander in the United States District
court in this city personally issued the
first Of the new certificates. In order to
do this the applicant for the 'naturaliza-

1T is safe to say that there is not an
other city in the United States of Birm-

system of musical instruction in its pub

'Unmusical people do not appreciate this
part of public education, but men and

value 1t and see the good results that

A FORTUNE IN THIS BRICK.
Largest and Most Perfect Ever Shown
at Deadwood Assay Office.

From the Minneapolis Journal
The largest and most perfect gold brick
to be received at the United States assay
office has been deposited at Deadwood,
S. D.. by the Spearfish Gold Mining and
Reduction company, from the cyanide mill
In the limestone bolt. 1t weighs 1175
ounces and is over 900 fine, being worth
approximately $4,000. 1t Is seldom that
gold of such fineness is brought to the
Deadwood office from plants in the hills
and while the office has received bars
Weighing about as much, they have not
possessed the same value or anywhere
near it. The gold is usually associated
with silver aid copper The last bar from
the Spearfish weighs over ninety pounds,
troy weight, is well formed and the gold
is of a particularly bright yellow color
This brick was the result of four
teen days run at the 2o0-ton cyanide plant
of the Spearfish company on ore that
assays from IS to 81 a ton At this rate
the company is able to clean up over
$4,000 a month. The increase in the
amount of the cleanup is attributable to
greater richness of the ore than formerly,
and to the fact that the company is able
with experience to get greater efficiency
in the milling facilities
A gold brick that in fneness is equal
to that deposited by the Spearfish com
pany has just been brought down by the
Deadwood-S Standard Gold Mining COM
pany. 1t Is worth between $4,000 and $1,000,
but in its perfect proportions and the

A Humorlst.

Simeon Ford, the New York hotel man
and famous after-dinner speaker is much
in the public eye these days." said a
New Yorker at the Morris: His syndicate
stories are usually headed, Wisdom of
Simeon Ford, but Mr.. Ford is more of a
humorist than a wit or sage. Here is a
good specimen of one of his recent stories,
full of natural humor
L remember hearing Jim Bresiin de-
scribe his early trials and tribulations in
the hotel business-how he began at the
bottom of the ladder and worked his way
up, Now, the difference between Jim
Breslin and myself is that while he be-
gan at the bottom of the ladder and slow
ly worked his way up began at tho top
of the ladder and have been rapidly work.
Ing my way downward ever since.
Ford Is great success. He
is a prince of hotel proprietors
and is highly successful in every
thing he undertakes. He is one of the best
writer's in the country. and his book, just
out, will be in great demand"
