A great many women suffer with =

seIectIna a Vice President.

Having virtually selected Theodore Roosevelt as their chief standard bear CT next year, the republicans are now engaged in selecting his running mate. After considering and dlscarding in turn Mark A. Hanna, Myron T. Her rick, Senator Beveridge, Elihu Root, Joe Cannon, Senator Fairbanks, Gov. ernor Cummlns and U. s. Grant. the party seems to have decided that it's nominee for vice president must be either Governor Taft of the Philip. pines or General Bristow of the post office braves.
 If the postoffice scandals grow to huge proportions, becoming national scandal and disgrace, an effort will be made to head them off and neutralize their legitimate effect by nominating tfe fourth assistant postmaster gem eral, MT. Bristow, who is conducting the Investigations in the postoftlce de- partment. He has a good crop of enemies, but the case is so pressing it is thought the best way to meet the difficulty and embarrassment will con. sist in the nomination of Mr. Drlstow.
 If, however, the postoffice scandals are not urgent and imperative next year, the ticket will perhaps include Governor Taft who stands for empire and colonies and imperialism, and who Is withal a deserving and capable official. At present Governor Taft leads all the rest, unless it be General Bristow, and the latter's boom may not last whole year to come, whereas the Taft boom s warranted to wear well.

j. p. MoRoAN's coNNolssEUR.

From the New York Press.
 In a somewhat dingy-looking dwelling house in the West End of London these days New York woman is engaged, at a nigh salary, at somewhat odd task. She Is Mrs. Cox, the wife of Dr. Cox Of il West Thirty-fourth street. and her employment is the making of a thorough examination of all the art objects and collections of paintings, prints and min erals that J. P. Morgan has bought in Europe in the last few years. MT. Nor gan has purchased so many of these things that his London house could not contain all, and so they have been stored in a dwelling rented for that pur- pose. It Is only natural that in buying collections in a mass, as Is MT. Morgan's custom, inferior or worthless objects should be included. and Mrs. Cox's task Is to weed out the bad from the good. When this work is ended she will start on a roundabout journey in continental EArope in search of art treasures for her wealthy clients in New York. Her knowledge of these things and the es- teem in which she is held as connois- seur explain why she was selected to go over MT. Morgan's treasures.

How the Irish Land Bill Works.

Only those who have kept in close touch with the Irish land bill under stand perhaps the bearings of the deadlock that has arisen over the bill, for unless the government can com. mand the support of the nationalists or Irish party cannot pass the bill.
 There are in Ireland first term and also second term renters. The first term renters are those whose rent has been reduced once by a Fair Rent court for term of fifteen years. The second term renters are those whose rents have been twice reduced. Under the pending bill the percentages to be paid by the two classes of renters differ, but it is not necessary to enter into that branch of the subject.
 Assume then that the tenant is now paying $50 year fc- the use of ten acres which he desires to purchase Under the government plan as il stands the minimum annual install ment of the tenant purchaser would be $35, and the maximum s45. MT Redmond speaking for the nationalist endeavored to have the minimum ad

POWER OF THE CHECK BOOK.

From the New York World.
 There are traditions of offended million aires buying up hotels for the sake of re- venee upon the proprietor because of a stale sandwich or discourtesy from the clerk. Usually the names are lacking. and the authenticity of the story is open to doubt. But we seem to be raising crop of Croesuses to whom such pur- chase may be but an episode of the days doings.
 There Is MT. Schwab, for example. The contractors who are building his million dollar mansion on Riverside drive having Informed him that they could get no brick with which to continue the progress of the building uninterrupted. he went up the Hudson and bought brickyard with its entire product. There being no brick layers to lay the brick. he arranged with the union for them. And now we hear of John w. Gates having no suitable car- riage to take him to the Derby in Chicago and buying two landaus for the occasion at the cost of S, 900.
 These are our Alexanders of finance. who cut Gordian knots with gold or ds- solve them into thin air with leaf torn from a check book. Doubtless if 1t had been necessary MT. Gates would have pur- chased an entire carriage factory and if the situation had demanded 1t Mir. Schwab would have bought a lime-kiln. lumber yard. a blaming mill, and any other es- sential of building operations.
 In the hands of a millionaire entirely great a check book beats any number of swords.

vanoed ten or f. .en per cent and the maximum cut down to s37.50. The government and the house of lords re fused to accept the Irisn amendment, and the way out of the deadlock is uncertain.
 The annual installments are to be maintained sixty.eight and a half years, when the land becomes the property of the purchaser subject to an irredeemable ground rent equal to one-eighth of the annual installment, payable, not to the landlord. but to the government. The landlord passes out of the case forever before the first installment is paid, and the tenant purchaser deals with the government only.
 It is believed some way will be found out of the trouble, although the landlords are standing very stubbornly by the original proposition, and they are very strong in the house of lords.

The Vacant Iudueship.

The deata of Judge W. W. Wilkerson has created a vacancy in the office of seaior judge of the City court of Bir- mingham, which Governor Jelks will be called upon to fill, and inasmuch as the senior judge ,s the presiding judge of the court it will be necessary to fiji the position without delay, as many questions arc liable to come up even during recess which will require the attention of the presiding judge.
 In the selection of a successor to Judge Wilkerson Governor Jelks could make no wiser appointment than Judge Charles A. Senn, the present junior judge of the City court, and Judge Senn has been on the bench for nearly five years, and prior to that time was clerk and register of the Chancery court TOT over twelve years. During all of this time he has shown eminent fitness for the position, and he should by all means be promoted to the senior judgeship.
 The Age-Herald is informed that the members of the legal profession of Birmingham are practically unit for the promotion of Judge Senn, and it is said that no one will apply for the senior judgeship, but will concede that honor to Judge Senn, ana that the ap- phcants to the governor for the va cancy will be made with the under standing that Judge senn is to be pro- noted.
 Governor Jelks VIII please the peo- pie of Birmingham and make an ex- cellent appointment when he promotes Judge Senn to the position, so well and so ably filled by the lamented Judge Wilkerson.

scHooL OF STATESMEN.

From the N. Y. Commercial Advertiser.
 For the extremely low price of from SIP 900, 900 to s14,O0O0OO this land of ours can be flooded with trained and enlight- ened statesu;en, fitted for all positions from an alderman or coroner to Presi- dent of the United States. The Hon. Andrew D. White has made this discov- cry, and he laid it before the famous class of '53' at Yale college yesterday. It took him six months to think 1t out, after Andrew Carnegie set his mind in motion upon it. but he has it in perfect form now and guarantees it to work with scientific smoothness and precision, turning out statesmen and lawmakers as an incubator turns out chickens. It is a discovery which will rank with the contemporaneous one of radium. and as the latter is guaranteed to revolutionize the theory of the universe so will MT. Whites revolutionize our political world.

Meeting of Congress.

It seems to be practically determin- ed that the extra session of congress will be convened on Monday, Novem- Der g, when the Cuban tariff will be submitted. Beyond all doubt an extra session will be called at the time men toned It will give the two houses an additio..Al month in which to trans act business before the Christmas re- cess intervenes staying all work. Two months of business should be produc- two of some results, and no doubt congress will utilize 1t fully, to the end that the long session may be end ed before the national conventions are held in June.
 The hope is expressed by the ad- ministration that the Cuban tariff bill will be debated and put through by the time the regular session is begun, but of course that is somewhat pro- blematical, for many tariff amend ments may be offered in the senate and all of these will be open to unlim- tied debate.
 The republicans desire to keep tariff agitation and tariff discussion down to a minimum, and they hope to rush the Cuban tariff through with speed and dispatch. There are two sides to this question, especially in the senate, and the administration is counting chick ems early in the matching season when 1t undertakes to say what and how soon It's tariff programme shall be transacted. Congress is a law to It. self, and the senate is a leisureIy body, and 1t will probably serve it's own convenience and practice rather than the administration strenuous policy.

Not Heavily Punished.

Citizen" in the montgomery Adver- tiser thus presents new view of the Pace case, as follows:
 "As long ago as 1897. MT. Pace was in- dicted in the Circuit court of Tallapoosa county for the same kind of conduct of which 1t seems he has now been guilty, and after the court had exhausted its power to get him there, he made his es- cape, and fled the county. or at any rate, the city of Dadeville, to avoid trial. He subsequently,, by some means, not known. escaped punishment. and has never abandoned the business. as has been evidenced by his pleas of guilty in eleven cases.
 Judge Jones has dealt mildly with MT. Pace all along the line"
 l. these be the facts, Judge Jones was not harsh. Pace seems tc have been an old offender-one, too W knew the nature of his acts, and he got a light sentence in view of the facts set forth by Citizen"
 The Age-Herald treated the case as a first offerse, and the first prosecu. ticn under an unknown federal statute. Pace was not probably aware of the existence of the federal statute, but he knew right from wrong, and the facts recited by Citizen" go to show that he did not receive at the hands of the court c sentence one bit too harsh.

Ind candy HabIt.

Tt is mistaken idea to think that all the candy Is eaten by the children" said a confeeHoner yesterday. There are old fellows about town who have the worst kind of sweet tooth and they will retain this falling until their last day. There is one old gentleman who drops in regularly every evening about o'clock evidently on his way home from the office. He in- yariably calls for chocolates and puts one in his mouth as soon as the little bag Is in his possession. He never fails to buy calmly every day and eats 1t all himself.
 Now such an appetite is nothing to be ashamed of. Candy in moderate quanti- ties has a beneficial effect on the human stomach as 1t supplies the sugar which the human system demands. Everyone should eat little sugar. or foods con- taning sugar, daily. It's tendency to in- crease the weight Is we'll established by the medical profession.
 We all remember the dreams of our childhood when we thought that if we were grown up and had money of our own we would eat piles of candy every day. used to think that I would be supremely happy if I could be able to walk into confectioners and order candy whenever the notion struck me am very fond of sweetmeats still and rarely let a day pass without sampling some Of my goods"

From the Kansas City Times.
 IT was at a funeral in Kansas some
 years ago that the minister conduct | ing the services asked if any one who had not spoken wished to pay tribute of respect to the deceased person. No one responded until an old man with whiskers arose and said If nobody cares to say anything in regard to our departed brother would like to make few remarks about free silver"
 The resurrection of that story of popu- lism is not inappropriate in connection with protest against a deplorable prac- tice of infiicting long-drawn-out dis- courses upon the mourners and other attendants at burial services. Fortu- nately, such a perversion of taste anu feeling is not common in cities but IL Is not st all infrequent in rural commu- mites. Where 1t prevails 1t Is not con- sidered necessary to restrict the re marks'' to the fortunate person in the casket or to the unfortunates who have to listen. Anything. from free silver to the condition of the crops, is a fair sub- feet of discussion. It seems to be the lamentable ambition of the orator to make his hearers as thoroughly wretch ed and prostrate as it is possible for flesh and blood to be and at the same time to establish his own reputation as powerful and effective speaker.
 At Jefferson City a few days ago a funeral was conducted by a fraternai beneficiary order. In the hot sun the friends and relatives of the dead man were gathered about the grave. A youth with a smooth face and bushy hair = presumably the lodge orator = mounted a box. For an hour he talked. No wild ass of Jeremiah ever stood in inc high places and snuffed up the wind with louder snort in his quest for grass. He prayed long and vociferously about tbe duty of every man to join the so- ciety of which he was the mouthpiece. He gave statistics of the number of poll cies that had been paid in Iowa, Illinois. Missouri and Kansas. He had the fig ures to prove that If 10000 men should each take out a policy of s10000 there would be an investment of s2OO, 900. That was such an intricate sum in arth- metic that he went over 1t two or three times to be sure that he was right. The last fifteen minutes were devoted to ex- plaining why he was glad he lived in Jefferson City One cause of self-con- eratulation which he overlooked was ! that in almost any other town he would have been lynched.
