Mrs. Mackay has written a book, and not a all the sort of book that would be expected t, emanste from the pen of fashionable wo man. She is now hard at work on another and she never lets anything interfere with he' daily work. Mrs. Payne Whitney Is also lit erary and Is also getting another volume read, for the press.
 Ars George oouid's accession to the ehoser circle is of comparatively recent occurrence and her attractive personality rather than hei wealth is said to be responsible for her enorm ous popularity today. In point of valuable jewels Mrs. Gould rivals even the famous col lection of Mrs. Astor, and. like society's leader Mrs. Gould affects the combination of emer' aids and diamonds. Likewise Mrs. Gould wear black gowns which are suited especially Tor background of gems The most recent acqui. sftion Of Mrs. Gould is collection of emerald brooches each set with siowing single em' eraid surrounded by diamonds.
 Mrs, Westinghouse is not only always soWneo in white, but carries this preference so fai that she wears no jewels of any color. Dia- monds and pearls are her choice for aii iunc. tions. Of these stones she has one of the most magnificent collections of any woman m the United States Mrs. Antonio Yznaga, the mother Of the dowager duchess of Manchester and grandmother of the present duke, although nearing the sos. never tor one tn'sn. ,...,s,', gets that she has been young and oeauttiuL and her toilet is as carefully made ana nef aowhs are as critically planned as those of . beiie in her second season. One Of Mrs. fSna- ea.s accomplishments is dancing. and she can execute a passeui with all the skill and aSii- ity of . footlight fayorite. Mrs John Jay. who is still farther along in years. is quite able to hold her own in any gathering of up-to- date matrons. She is keenly alive to all that is going on about her, can discuss the latest book and is quite in touch with the doings Of the smart set.

HoLpINc AN EAsY JoB. .

Somewhere and at some time we remem- Der to have read the story of a French soldier who was left on post at a fort or magazine during the Napoleonic wars, and who was accidentally left at his post when the army moved away. Though there was no longer any need of sentinel, and nobody to report to he remained on duty till he died, faithful to the last.
 We have ben reminded of this old story by something of the same nature which has been going on in Chicago for long time., It seems that bridge was built across an arm or branch of the river which might at some time have been navigable, and as the Federal laws forbid the obstruction of any navigable stream, draw was placed in the bridge and a bridge-keeper apointed. No vessel ever comes that way, nor according to the Chicago papers, will there ever be one to go up or down the stream, yet a keeper was appointed by the city and he has remained there ever since at a salary of $40 a month. The draw is never opened and there is no probability that there will ever be occasion to open it, but the bridge keeper holds his position, draws his $4SO year and Is doubtless we'll satisfied with his job. So far as any need for him is concerned he might as well be on guard against comet and if some spasm of virtue had not seized the authorities, he might have held on to the crack of doom.

College at MontgomeryP By All
 Means.

Editor The Advertiser:
 Let me thank you. MT. Editor, for voic- ing what I have for some time regarded as the greatest need of this city. There is no one institution or enterprise that can be named along with a college in the permanent upbuilding of a commu- nity. The financial is the lowest estimate to be put upon any such movement; and yet a good college would bring annually $l5,O00 to $20.O0o on income from endow- ment, besides an average of $50 per stu dent. at least 200 of whom would register the first year. Besides this patrons com ing and going would add large amount. All this would mean at least $50.000 a year to be increased indefinitely. An intelli- gent gentleman, said in the bearing of the writer the other day that the plant would be worth quarter of million dol lars in five years, and be the third col lege in Southern Methodism. Add to all this the culture power that would come to us and think of what an uplift to our whole people such an institution would bring. and who cannot see that 1t is worth centering our thoughts and efforts upon ? A college at Montgomery? By all means. and at once? Serious.

That con vention represented some sixty-odd cities and towns in the Mississippi Valley and was composed of business men and cit izens engaged for the public good and for the advancement of their section-and they were enthusiastic at the very thought of the one American statesman in accord with Southern hopes and Southern ideas who had occupied the presidential chair since the war. It strikes us that this de- monstration more clearly and reliably indicates the genuine popular sentiment of the South than has been done by the utterances of our friends the self-seeking politicians few of whom can abnegate self to any very marked degree, for the general good. The incident suggests to the esteemed Mobile Register that the Hong desired unity of the Democratic Party may be brought about by the ac- knowledged leader. whose name com mands applause wherever Democrats are congregated.

In recent issue of The Seattle Post Inteibgencer we nnd this item;
 The report of the surgson-Gensral of the army emphasizes the fact that the white people of the temperate zone are better able to adapt themse'yes to cii- mos cannot live in a warm climate and negroes from the tropics cannot stand ex- posture in extremely cold countries. Indi- Se o CT endase ns s not Ds race lt has proved its ability to live in any country where human habitation Is pos sible.
 The adaptabiiity of the white race Is really wonderful, When white man in any considerable numbers, and without any previous standardization or any prep aration for the change, take up their per- manent residence in a torrid or very malarious region. they suffer and large numbers of them die, but by a system of gradual approaches. as we might call 1t. they win become inured to any climatic conditions and viii eventually become as mach at home as the natives are.
 We And this displayed both in the ex- treme North and in the hot and fever laden districts of the torrid zone. The white race has made itself at home in the frtgid regions of the extreme North. among the Polar bears and the reindeer, and there they endure condi tons which would appear impossible at first sight. In like matter, they accustom themselves to life fin the hottest regions of the globe and are at home there as they are in the Polar regions.
 Whether the Esquimaux, for example, could eyer become acclimated in the South is doubtful They might, in the course of generations, so change as to live comfortably in the tropics, just as the negroes of the South might after a long time live comfortably in the frigid zone, but 1t would doubtless require long time. The white race conquers at. mospheric and climatic conditions just as it conquers everything else, and makes a home for itself wherever chance or in- ciinatton plants 1t. If the North Pole if ever discovered, and there is land there upon which human beings can exist, there will be Anglo-Saxon residents before a generation has passed, and they will man. age to make themselves safe and com fortable in some manner. Wherever hu- man beings can live. there will be white residents. and they will make the country their own. -.r

Greatly Needed.

Editor Th4 Advertiser:
 Your editorial on Montgomery's need of a college is vital. Wealth alone will not make a great city Broad minded men are essential. There is wealth of truth ? in the statement, ''the State has no ma terial resources at all comparable with its citizens, and no hope of perpetuity except in the intelligence and integrity of its people"
 This is the political center of the State and commercial metropolis of large dis trict. Wealth and population are increas- ing rapidly. Our chief deficiency is in our educational equipment. The apex to the scholastic pyramid is wanting It can be supplied only by the establishment of a university for liberal education. The time is past to hope for the removal of any State institution. We lost the Girls h. dustrial School by our apathy. Atlanta captured the Presbyterian University be- fore we thought of 1t. Other colleges have located at other points in this State without even an invitation from us.
 Surely, if we can secure an esta blished university with several hundred students and a, competent faculty. to the support of which is pledged the powerful Metho- dist Church of the State, we should not sleep until 1t is accomplished. Its infiu- ence on minds and morals would be of incalculable benefit. It would be a stand ing advertisement of increasing value. 1t would attract to us many of the best young men in the State, who would make this their permanent home. Families would move here for its advantages. Large buildings and elaborate equipment would necessarily be provided.-to our pe- , cuniary, profit, The resulting annual In- crease of trade would be enormous. The enthusiasm of the students would be con- tagious, the city would step livelier. Montgomery might well become the edu- cationai center of the State, which would add no little to her right to remain it's perpetual capital. Be this the beginning. Let us be up and doingl Let the same anfhncia Gti0 which naIir l. ly the Charity Hospital and Carnegie Li- brary seize this opportunity. Let those best qualified plan and lead and every body follow, doing his part. Let us hast en. lest others get the prize.
 For one. am ready to contribute.

 Editor The Advertiser:
 The editorial that appeared in yester- days edition of The Advertiser, upon the practicabfiity of establishing great col- lege devoted to the cause of higher ed- ucation in the city of Montgomery, was we'll timed and sounded a clarion note in the right direction.
 am of the firm conviction that such an insfitution would be a pre-eminent sue cess for several reasons:
 first-It would command large local patronage. t ..t-I xets s.~ '-.
 second-saontsomery is 80 admirably sit- uated that a we'll directed institution would command a large patronage not only rom Alabama, but also from every part of the South.
 Thfrd-Montgomery is destined to be- come one Of the greatest railroad, com mercial and resident centres of the South. According to the economic principle of demand and supply" there will be a growing necessity for such an institution as that in contemplation.
 Fourth-Students would be surrounded with the highest social. moral and relig- tous influences. Montgomery in turn would feel the uplift. that comes from the presence of an institution devoted to the cause of higher education. t-.

Monteomery,s Police Force.

T hope" remarked a citizen of Mont gomery's newly annexed territory, "ulat the City Council will lose as little time as possible in needing the recommenda- ton of Chief Gerald tor larger police force. The present force of thirty -nlne men is inadequate for the old city ana It ton has been increased fully 15,o0o by the annexation act. The territory is near ly twice as large. It is an impossibility to police this territory with such large force. To attempt to do 1t would only increase the exposure of the downtown district It seems to me that the number of burglaries committed last Saturday night emphasizes the necessity for larger and more efficient force of patrol men"
 Another excellent recommendation made by Chief Gerald" continued this citizen, lis that patrol wagon be pur- chased as early as possible. This has been a necessity many years. Men who are drunk or i'll when arrested are either sent to police headquarters In carriages or carried by patroimen. This Is a prim- itive method and does not reflect credit on a city of the size and importance of MOntgOmery.
