best Of friends and their intimacy ex-
tended to personal as well az business
matters.

Passing Of ''Gee, Whoa, Haw.'

Passing Of Gee, Whoa, Haw."
"One thing in the management of
horses in this town that surprises me
is the elimination of Gee, whoa, hsw'
from the drivers vocabulary" said
the man who was brought up in the
country.
SIN one capacity or another I have
been brought in close connection with
a number of teamsters and their
horses, and I have noticed that the
old-fashioned horse talk with which
I was familiar up State is almost un-
known here.
"In it's stead the drivers say Hi,
there and Got along and shout nu-
merous other directions that I do
not care to mention. The animals
seem to understand these strenuous
remarks and obey fairly we'll, but I
can't help wondering why the owners
have abandoned the Gee, whoa haw'
of my boyhood days."-New York

This is to certify that I have taken

The North and the South.

in the North ExtroIIing the South.
Major E. R. Quattlebsum, secre-
tary and treasurer of the Mobile
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals, has returned from q visit
to the North. Regarding his trip he
says:
"After spending ten days visiting
Cincinnati and various other cities,
AID in having the most enjoyable time
of my life, I have returned 10 Mobile.
I spent q day and night in Bowling

While in Cincinnati, I represented
the Mobile Humane Society at the
annual meeting of the American HUI

assistance of that great and good
woman Mrs. Schafter, of New Orleans
] also, in part, represented the South.
"a report on child labor was read
before that convention, in which it
was stated that in New York and
some other Northern states child
labor was humanely restricted, but
that there were dark places where the

"Being called upon by the chair to
tell something of the humane work
being done in Alabama, I made two
impromptu speeches upon the sub
ject-one showing the minucia of the
work and the assistance rendered by
the press and the Mobile and Ohio
and Louisville and Nashville roads;
and the sother:was, as geographically
reported, as follows:

early In his career acquired the repu-

Is one reason why lawyers whose p1sac-

unnecessary delay and furthermore he
would not countenance any unhecessa-
ry delay on the part Of attorneys who
desire a postponement Of cases for the
slightest cause.
His most painful duty, as he states
himself, is to sentence prisoners. no

noteworthy fact that hardened crimd-

Judge Shiras' words Of advice in pass

compelled to sentence the same pris-

Judge Shiras is still robust both in
mind and body. He has never used to-
bacco or intoxtcants. and observes the
same rules of preciseness In his daily
life as he does in conduct ting his court.
