YELLOWSTONE PARK VISITORS.
Records Show That 40 Per Cent of
Visitors Are Foreigners.

President II. W. Child of the vel
lowstone Park company, which ope-
rates the hotels and stage lines in the
government reserve, has discovered a
curious fact in compiling figures on
the travel into the park last summer
via. the Northern Pacific gateway. At
Gardiner, Mont. OF the 5000 persons
who visited the park, 40 per cent were
foreigners. tourists in this country.
Most Of them came from Germany.
France, Austria, England, Spain, and
the Scandinavian peninsula. but there
is not a country nor principality in
Europe that was not represented in
the army of sightseers.
The majority of these foreign
tourists saw only two localities in the
United States, New York ard the Vel
lowstone. 1t is a subject which is
treated of at length in the school
books, and President Child states it as
his opinion that there is more specific
knowledge per capita in the principal
European countries than in America.

A Wronu Idea,

It seems that some of the merchants of Montgomery have conceived the idea that the merchants of Birmingham are keeping up the quarantine against the capital city i's the interest of local trade. Nothing could be further from the intent of the business men of Bir- mingham than a desire to harm the trade of Montgomery in any way what soever.
 The merchants made no move for a quarantine against Montgomery. Quar- antine was instituted by the Jefferson County Medical society, sitting as board of health, simply as precaution- ary measure. Citizens in general had nothing to do with the matter. Had the question been left to the business men of Birmingham, it Is safe to say the gates of the city would have been kept wide open. But after the medical society and Mayor Ward decided upon a quarantine the public readily acqui- esced in their action.
 The Age-Herald takes pleasure in as- surfing Montgomery that 1t has no truer friend in Alabama than Birmingham. Every man, woman and child in Bir- mingham rejoices that yellow fever in Montgomery stopped short at one case, and that there is no probability of a new case making it's appearance there.

Bumper Grain Crops.

The wheat harvest is beyond the harvesters are gathering it in where 1t will be beyond the ills of climate also. The winter wheat is all harvested, and the harvesters in South Dakota are now cutting spring wheat. The indl- cations are that the entire crop of wheat, both writer and spring, will be one that was but once exceeded, and 1t may be that a new record will be established. Figures are not yet avail able, but the crop is made and is safely out of the way of all ills except those connected with the harvest.
 The corn crop promises to be un- usually large. It is well advanced in the chief surplus states, and it is al most certain to mature before Septem- Der 15, when frost is expected in the northern portion of the corn belt. Pres ent prospects point to record-break- ing crop. Neither the northwest nor the southwest have ever seen in one season such big crops of corn, wheat, oats and forage. All the crops are large and are well assured. and the country is secure in the possession of bread. Its price will be reasonable unless the wheat crops of other coun- tries are less in the total than they now appear to be.

The Messenger Boy.

T certainly think that The Age-Her- ald should be given a vote of thanks for securing an early morning train on the Frisco as far as Winfield, said Walter Hopkins, one of the people along the line who has been benefited by the train. 'l see by the papers the train is to be ex- tended to Amory, and The Age-Herald Is due a second vote of thanks for that. Had the paper never inaugurated the train to Winfield the Frisco would not have felt the need of running 1t to Amory.
 T know a good many people on the Frisco between Birmingham and Amory, and they have been unanimous in their expressions of gratitude to the paper. think that the people arc appreciative and that they fully realize what a benefit this new train has been to the portion of Ala bama along the Frisco.

Kill the Mosquitoes.

The determination of Mayor Ward and Chief Wier to turn over all rain water barrels and other receptacles of water is the height of wisdom itself, for it is in such vessels that mosquitoes in towns are chiefly bred. Wash tubs and tin vessels of various sorts are to be emptied, and any repetition of the offense is to be punished.
 It has been proven that one pond in New Jersey with a surface of 1894 square feet, or about 42 feet each way, actually bred in one season ten mil lions of mosquitoes. It is estimated that pool 100 feet long and 25 feet wide we'll covered with larvae can pro- duce 53,00O,000 mosquitoes in ten days. A commission in New Jersey vouches for the accuracy of these figures. The insect breeds eight times in summer, and the last crop is something enor- nous and painful.
 Mayor Ward does not overstate the facts when he says one bucket can breed 5000 mosquitoes. It can prob ably turn out double that number. It is important therefore to overturn all receptacles of water. There is no ex- ception to the rule, and Chief Wier should see that no exceptions are per mitted.
 Cleanliness is desirable, but the abo- lition of all breeding places of mos quitoes should be rendered imperative, and offenders should be brought within the hand of the law until they ascer- tain that the city government is in earnest in it's efforts to drive out the mosquitoes. Let the war be against the anophles and the culex as well as the stegomyia mosquitoes. Anything that buzzes and bites humankind should be exterminated There is more hope in this crusade against the mos

so, but she has just printed 30,00O copies of her constitution minus the Platt amendment The Platt amend ment provided, too that its provisions should be embodied In a permanent treaty with the United States, No treaty has been presented for the ac- ceptance of this country, and none will be. Cuba has simply dropped the Platt amendment.
 What will the United States do about 1t? This country spent vast sum in freeing Cuba. and it is the height of of ingratitude when Cuba drops the Platt restrictions. When, however, Cuba violates one of those restrictions the time for action on the part of this country will have arrived, and the new loan she Is considering will be pretty sure to contravene one provision of the Platt stipulations.

Droppinu the PIatt Amendment.

Beet sugar in Colorado aided to some extent by cane sugar in Louisiana led to the acceptance of the Teller resolu- tion or promise under which we gave up Cuba after we had won 1t by force of arms. To this day the wisdom of the Teller resolution is doubted, and it is difficult to say which has suffered most from if. Cuba or the United States Cuba would be more prosperous today if we had retained it as we did Porto Rico, and this country would be mak- ing it's own sugar.
 But there is no use in discussing what might have been. We handed Cuba back to the Cubans with the Piatt string tied to it, and now the Cubans have A''S'7I, ,, G.s. s%s.s~sss ssssss 's ,s

"The streets cars to and from the ball game pass my place of business,' said a First avenue merchant yesterday, and I have been struck with the large de- crease in the number of cars recently.

AN EMPTY ROMANCE.

From the Atchison Globe
 There was an elopement in Atchison the other night which ended in an original way. A girl of 16 and her lover decided that they would marry and run off. To add to the romance she climbed out of the bedroom window and made her way to the gate. where she was met by the young man. It was their intention to fly to Missouri It was a bright, clear, moon light night. and they could see several miles as plainly as day. They crossed the bridge, and though the girl kept turn ing back anxiously there was no one in pursuit. Tt Is strange" she said; 'I made a lot of noise on purpose to waken papa" She was so disappointed at this first break in her romance that she conn pelled the young man to turn back. Hav- ing the father in hot pursuit is half the joy and she felt cheated. When they re- turned she found a bundle on the front gate with this note attached: "You for got your kitchen dresses and here they are." The girl climbed in the window again and her romance was ended.

Friction is uncaIled For.

The Montgomery Advertiser indulges in few remarks touchin on and ap- pertainin' to two hundred thousand people in the county of Jefferson, as follows.
 One of the questions propounded to persons seeking to go to Birmingham Is this:
 Have you, to your knowledge. been exposed to yellow fever in the past seven daysr'
 If a person answers that question neg atively, no further objection is made. The city of Montgomery has had one imported case, which was quickly isola- ted three miles from town eleven days ago. There has been no suggestion of any other case and, To and behold, the county of Jefferson. at the request of the Birmingham board of health, eight days after the reported imported case, quar- antined the whole of Montgomery county. Is that fear, or a worse motive?
 What are the facts? Minnehett was carried out of the Capitola hotel to the Emergency hospital on July 28. A mos quito that had bitten him could not possibly transmit the fever germs to a person until August 8. and the person bitten may not show the effects of the bite until August IS. All the talk about the freedom of Montgomery from fever cases is all very true, sim ply because no case could well grow out of the Minnehett case until Au- gust 13.
 The Advertiser should withhold it's irritation over Birmingham quarantine. Quarantines in Birmingham are deter mined in Birmingham, not in Mont gomery. The Advertiser cannot talk the quarantine complained of out of existence. It will stand until the board of revenue and Mayor Ward and the health board conclude to remove it, and they will act with deliberation in the light of facts as they are disclosed.
