remarkable vitality and energetic tenn
permanent is forced to pay attention to
the mandates Of Father Time when he
gets near the ninety-year mark on life's
journey. 1t has been Mr.. Sage's favor
during his long business career, and his
recent statement to the effect that no
man absolutely needs a vacation from
business started a controversy that
swept over the entire country. Whether
or not the veteran financier has
changed his views in this particular it
is certain that, since his illness a year
ago, he has been persuaded by his wife
and his physician, DR.. Mum, to release
himself from the cares Of business al

at very rare intervals, spending almost
his entire time at his summer home at

CIRCUS DAY is NEAR.
Stupendous Spectacle Involving 1900
Characters Added to the Show.

Ringing Bros may always be de-

a new, original and tremendous dra-
matte spectacle, involving a greater
outlay of money than ever before in
vested in a circus attraction. 1t is
named Jerusalem and the Crusaders"
and thrillingly depicts this classic
story of early Christian struggle. There
are 1900 characters in the cast, ballet
of 300 and singing chorus of 200. The
incidental music is supplied by the lar
gest portable grand organ ever built.
and a band of fifty instruments, 1000
costumes of ancient pattern and ra-
diant splendor, glittering implements of
barbaric age, decorative scenery of
massive proportion, imperial jewels and
bic are enthralling factors in the mag
niticent spectacle. This Illuminated
gantic conception of circus enterprise
in the history of the world. The pick
and flower of riding, acrobatic aerialis-
tic, equilibristic, Juggling, gymnastic
and athletic artists, each Of distinction
in Europe and America, and many new

the ring program. Captain Webbs per-

Uniform Bills of Ladinq.

From time out of mind common car
riers have been held responsible for
damages to goods in their hands, but
the railroads now propose to introduce
ON January 1 uniform bills of lading.
charging 20 per cent extra in all cases
in which the railroad is held to its
common law liability for damages to
or loss of articles entrusted to it.
If railroads thus relieve themselves
of their common law liability, pack
age stands as rule uninsured, and 4
bill of lading covering it therefore
loses its negotiable nature. To COM
pei shippers to pay 20 per cent in
crease for a retention of the common
law liability is considered unjust while
it can be established that the claims
for loss or damage do not amount to
one per cent of the freight.
The subject is undergoing investiga-
ton in Chicago by the interstate com.
merce commission, and many believe
that basis is being laid for suits un-
der the Sherman antitrust act against
the offending railroads. Be this as 1t
may, several railroads repudiate the
proposed bill of lading, notably the
Illinois Central, the Chicago and East
ern Illinois, and the New York, New
Haven and Hartford
1t is not stated that the proposed
uniform bill of lading is to be extended
at once to the south, but 1t will in
evitably be fitted to all or none of the
railroads in the country, for they are
each and all parts of one big system.
No doubt the roads represented by
the New England Freight association
the Trunk Line association, the Cen.
trail Freight association and the South
eastern Freight association will first
adopt it. and from that nucleus its use
will be extended to the rest of the
country. The subject is one of con-
siderable interest in all parts of the
country, and in shipping centers like
Birmingham 1t will attract no little
attention.
