GORDON AND REBEL WELLS.

Confederate Leaders Impressions of
 the First He Heard.
 The experiences of the late General John B. Gordon, the Confederate lead CT, are graphically set forth in his. "Reminiscences of the Civil War;" pub lished by Charles Scribner's Sons. He was mining coal in the mountains of three states Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama-when the war came, and he raised company of volunteers. They wore coonskin caps and were called the Raccoon Roughs and became ia nous.
 "Once in camp, we kept the wires hot with telegrams to governors of other states, imploring them to give us a chance. Governor Moore of Alabama finally responded, graciously consenting to Incorporate the captain of the Rac- coon Roughs and his coon capped com pany into one of the regiments soon to be organized.
 ''The reading of this telegram evoked from my men the first wild rebel yell it was my fortune to hear. Even then it was weird and thrilling. Through all the stages of my subsequent promo tions and in all the battles in which I was engaged this same exhilarating shout from these same trumpet-like throats rang in my ears, grawing faint CT and fainter as these heroic men be- >ame fewer and fewer at the end of each bloody days work, and when the last hour of the war came, in the last des- perate charge at Appomattox, the few and broken remnants of the RaccoonN Roughs were still near their first cap tain's side, cheering him with the dying echoes of that first yell in the Atlanta camp"

TYPICAL WESTERN WIFE.

How Oklahoma Governors He1pmeet
 Accepted a Position For Him.
 The Tonakwa (Okla) News directs attention to the fact that Mrs. Thomas B. Ferguson, wife of the governor, is the dean of the newspaper women of the territory.
 Mrs. Ferguson is associate editor of her husbands newspaper, the Watonga Republican, and she now and then not only assumes complete control over its columns, but in case her husband is absent when he should be present she acts for him and in his name, even in political matters of importance, says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
 For example, Mrs. Ferguson was en- gagged recently in writing an editorial article on "The Open Door to the Ori- ent' when telegram Addressed to her husband was laid on her desk. On opening the dispatch she found that it was from Washington, that it an nounced the appointment of her hus- band to the governorship of the terri tory and that 1t asked him whether he would accept the place.
 Without moments delay Mrs. Fer guson picked up telegraph blank, wrote a message of thanks and accept ance, signed her husbands name to it and sent 1t on it's way. When the ed itor in chief returned from 8 hunting trip or collection tour or from solicit ing advertisements in surrounding towns he found that his wife had at tended to everything for him much more promptly and sa ,.sfactorily per haps than he could have attended to it himself
 It is hardly worth while for the Ton kawa News to remark that Mrs. Fer guson is an ambitious woman. That goes without saying. She is one of those western women who are never content until they make something out of their husbands. There have been a great many of them, and some of them who have achieved their ends have had a great deal poorer material to work with than the present first lady of Oklahoma

As an example he point ed to the woman ill society who tries to outdo her neighbor in society in prod igality. This sort has reached such an exaggerated form among savages," ]" declared the speaker, that parents kill their daughters in babybood to save her wedding expenses
 Professor Vincent urged every one to seek the company of superiors rather than of interiors.
 ITO admit inferiority Is one of the most disagreeable of necessities" he declared, ''but it must be done if you are to improve yourself It is the sense of inferiority that spurs us on.'' !, Professor Vincent declared that the effort of American women to differen- tiate themselves has crystallized in the patriotic societies such as the Daugh- ters of the American Revolution and the Colonial Danes. These societies be named in the same breath with the, fads

MtcrOhua Furniture.

Fear of microbes seems to have spread to the possessors of old furni- ture, which during a long life and un- known experiences may have collected the germs of disease. Recently a eau tious lady in London who had been studying the medical warnings inherit init it to her house, but sent it off to q cabinetmaker's with orders that an ex- act replica be made, the original table being offered in payment. If this lady's craze for new and innocuous furniture spreads there should be good times in store for the cabinetmakers as well as for collectors who prefer the risk of mi crobes to the certainty of shoddy.

How to Cook Prunea.

When prunes are served they should fall apart from the stones and be very tender. In order that the prunes should reach the perfection of tenderness it is better to soak them in cold water for twenty -four hours before cooking. First they should be washed thoroughly in scalding water, then put to soak. After the soaking they may be boiled with sugar, not too much, or they may be soaked a second twenty-four hours in milk and then served with honey. Honey is always better with cream than sugar is.

Men who pride themselves on their
Mlture haven't any to speak of.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-08-14

For sometime past and before I pub lished my announcement, 1 had been solicited and importuned by number Of my friends and acquaintances to enter the race for mayor of this city. But the mere suggestion of the idea seemed to me quite ridiculous, considering the fact that for more than thirty years 1 have held but one ambition and that to suc- ceed in my chosen profession, and look ing upon all their suggestions regarding myself for mayor as but facetious fiattery, l, to humor the folly, was led to make my recent published announce ment and platform humorously touching up certain matters needing reform, beiev- ing at the time that the jest or my candl- dacy was so transparent as to deceive no one. However, in this l find l was in q large measure mistaken, and I now in this public manner desire to return my most grateful thanks to the several hundred friends, strangers, and acduaint- ances for their letters of congratulations, kind words, and promises of support given me, I also thank the members of the public press for their kind and gem erous comments concerning myself and my platform. But l must say that I cannot make the race and that I do not WdtiL ino OluCtt IoI lut iOliOWluB ItdSbHSs
 First, I am by education and long ex- perience believe competent and qualified to discharge the duties of my profession and can better serve the people practicing medicine than by exercising the functions of mayor, in which line of duty l have no experience whatever and in which should 1 make any bad mistakes, they would be made public and exposed for long time. Whereas; should l make any bad mistakes as doctor, they would soon be covered up and that would be the end of them.
 My next reason Is that can't afford to be mayor. In my present line I can by honest efforts and faithful discharge of duties make more than the mere salary of the office and if elected mayor Gas am but human) I might not like to make any radical innovations In the workings of that office, just to keep from getting rich too quick.
 Then again don't think I ought to be elected, for ever since reading the St. Louis platform I've been so color blind l can't very well tell a democrat from a republican. However, that don't make any material difference as to my views regarding other matters. But l used to be a democrat and not being able now to know just where l am at. I think | will eschew politics and just stand aside and watch the 'tail wag the dog for the next four years. In the meantime inasmuch as the property owners here have to pay for all storm sewers, side walks, curbing, street paving and all other Improvements. I do think a small part of their regular taxes might be used for improving the fire and police de- partments. in order that we may have cheaper insurance rates and better pro- tection of our persons and property.
 Of course, there are other matters re- quiring reform not mentioned in my plat form and of which I would like to speak If 1 could afford the space at printers rates One of which is the need of sprink-

mayor of Birmingham, stamp MT. Lane as man for the hour. You may say positively that should he not be induced to run I will enter the race, standing up- on my record as an alderman for six years and my business and private life in Birmingham since my birth
 Dr. o. T. Dozier, who has announced for mayor in q novel way through his business advertising space in The Age Herald, on being asked the extent of his earnestness in the premises, said: q thought my card was sufficiently trans parent for any one to grasp my meaning and to comprehend my purpose. l could conceive of no better or more effective way to give vent to my views on matters municipal especially in the department of schools, than by assuming a position as a candidate temporarily. I have been surprised and gratihed at the endorse ment of many friends, whom I wish to re- turn thanks and to say that I have never for a moment seriously contemplated running for mayor. l shall vote for the candidate whose convictions and views are nearest in accord with those expressed by me-
 Under Advisement.
 Upon A. O. Lane being asked as to his probable candidacy he said:
 "I can for the present only repeat what have already said. I have the matter under advisement It is a question not to be disposed of lightly one way or the other. The requests for me to run have come in such a way as to deserve grate- full and serious consideration. My posi- tion Is that I am reluctant to run under any conditions; but certainly would not enter the race of my own volition. In other words even if I would consent to run at all it would be in response to a sentiment and desire already existing among the body of democratic voters. would not on any account, go in upoh the idea of building up a support after l entered the race.'
 The friends of c. S. Simmons are in- sstingi that he is to prove the winner. Mir Simmons career as a wholesale mer- chant in Birmingham has been highly suc- cessful. From a smah beginning he was instrumental In building up one of the largest wholesale grocery houses in the state. He is declared by his friends to be a good mixer, and popular with all classes. Asked as to his candidacy MT. Simmons said:
 You have seen the sign on the boards of the seal of North Carolina tobacco. Well, occupy position like unto that There are two candidates for mayor e. S. Simmons and all the others I feel fully assured of my success, no matter who comes down or comes up."
 The name of Ex-Chief of Police T. O.. Mcdonald has been repeatedly mentioned in connection with the mayoralty cam paign, but there seems to be some doubt of his willingness to do so at this time. His friends have claimed that his long ex- perience in municipal matters, his suc- cessful career as a business man, and his large property interests here commend his name as one worthy of considerati ton.
 This seems to close the list of candi- dates certain and candidates prospective. If all enter the race there will be voting ticket twice as long as any other before handled by the Birmingham city voter. The present status of the contest is in- teresting and may become more so within a few weeks.
