Tt was 6 Republican members. Dingley used tC wear a fine plug hat that was a regular cloud of smoke by day and a pillar ot take a shot at 1t every once !n a while When he was in the House, Dingley al- ways kept 1t standing rim up on a cor ner of his desk. One day a Republican happened to look Into 1t and said to me: Jerry, go over and look into Dingley s hat did so. but didn't find any eggs or anything, and said so. was told to look again. Then l saw the word Lon don and sailed into Dingley, the high priest of protection. for wearing a Lon don made hat. It was in fun, but Ding ley took the matter very seriously, and sputtered and fumed and said: It's all rot That hat was made in Connecti- cut, and the London was put into 1t to catch the dudes
 Then I said Well, I caught a dude from Maine with it. He wouldn't speak k to me for month on that account"

 with small place in 1t for frivolous amusements.
 The. accession of Little wilhelmi- na," although she is not really a lit- tie woman, to the throne of Holland made perceptible change for the bet ter in the general condition of the women of Holland. Wilhelmina her self Is thoroughly up to date in her intelligence and a mental scope. Her mother, Queen Regent Emma, said when Wilhelmina was yet a child:
 T wish to make her not only a strong woman. but a king" So the little royal maiden was held in with an even hand. Queen Emma aiming first of all to make the princess of the Netherlands popuIar-"sold" we Americans would call it-with the lib- erty loving Dutch. In this wise wo- man succeeded so we'll that there grew up In Holland a chivalry and tender ness toward wilhelmina that reacted favorably for all her sex. The very fact that a beloved and youthful wo- man was their ruler made the Holland lawmakers liberal to aif women. Be- fore she became queen fathers had sole control of children under the law Now mothers are equal guardians with them~ If a married woman who earns money makes deposits in a savings bank in her own name her husband cannot touch them. Quen Wilhelmina herself is proprietor of commercial butter dairy.
 Middle class Dutchwomen are prob ably the most generally intelligent of any in Europe. Holland is such a lit- tie land and at the same time so re- nowned that it Is crisscrossed by the tourists of all nations, and its men and women are required to know four languages-Dutch, French, German and English There are In Holland no such obstacles to women entering the pro- fessions as exist in other lands, to some extent even in the United States And the women of Holland maintain what our country never has had, national bureau of women's profess sions. By applying to this organiza- ton any woman in Holland may find out anything concerning the prospects for money earning in any occupation.

There are queens who consider they have more serious work to do than just sit still and look pretty. For many years Alexandra of England has been warmly interested in charity hospitals. She has established at least one or these and has endowed others Occa- sionaIly. the queen herself visits be- nevolent institution. Whenever she does so the noble lady leaves on the minds of the inmates of these places the impression of a gracious woman perennially young and beautiful
 When one comes to think of 1t there is really no greater service even queen can render to her own sex than to show them a woman need not grow old, even though she Is a grandmother. This service Queen Alexandra certainly has rendered, and her example is having marked influence for good on women in America no less than in England. Uncomely and decrepit old age is far more to be dreaded and stunned than death Who wants an ugly. wrinkled old woman around, unpleasant and wearisome also because of her physical ailments?

 I'm Year.

Frank V. Evans of Alabama repre-
 senting the Immigration and Indus trial Association of Alabama, of which Ross c. Smith is commissioner spent yesterday in Montgomery in company | with Governor Jelks and Agricultural Commissioner Poole.
 The object of Mir. Evans visit was to talk immigration with State officials
 He has recently spent several weeks in the East, with Commissioner Sar- gent, at Washington and Commissioner Walthour at Ellis Island; also with the numerous immigration societies and agencies In New York and Providence, R. I. ...' Returning to Alabama a week ago,
 Mir. Evans visited several towns of the Canebrake section and there received
 every encouragement in his work. In conversation with a representative of The Advertiser Mir. Evans said: Through the efforts of the several agencies in Alabama at work for i'm
 migration many immigrants have been
 brought into Alabama during the past ninety days. The move is on, and
 within twelve months I expect to see
 ten thousand worthy new settlers land
 in the State. They VIII be Germans, IHungarians, Poles, Scandinavians, Ital-
 ians and others. all willing workers and producers.
 These people must and will be properly cared for. While there is no
 race question in Alabama there is
 as you know a labor problem which
 will be solved by the introduction of sturdy white men and women from abroad.
 Our Association, which is composed | of the nine railroads entering the State, has the hearty approval and en- | dorsement of the Governor, and he is lending us every encouragement in | the work
 You are going to see a revolution in labor conditions in Alabama before another year rolls round"

SEVEN Mines ARE EXPLODED.
japanese Charge Through Breaches Made In
the Walls by the Terrific Explosions OF Dy'
namite-Possessloa Of Rihlung and keek'
wan Forts Enables the Japs TO Cut OFT Com
munlcatiou Between Forts.

By the capture of Rihlung Mountain,
Just accomplished by the Japanese at
a great sacrifice of life, together with
the possession of Keekwan Fort, Cen
eral Nogi's forces have made all impor-
tant breach in the Notifications OF Port
Arthur and cut off communication be-
tween the Golden Hill fort and the
forts Of the western section OF the inner
circle The Japanese can now prevent
the Russian second Pacific Squadron
making any use of Port Arthur harbor.
The Russian War Office contends,
however, that the occupation OF Rihlung
Mountain at the best only makes the
Japanese masters of the entire terrace
beyond the principal forts of Keekwan
and still leaves the main line unbroken.
A desperate battle Wednesday night
preceded the capture Of Rihlung Mouth
tain. The Japanese casualties numbered
1000. Seven mines were exploded, max
ing breaches in the wall, through which
the Japanese charged.
A list of casualties, presumably at
Port Arthur, announced at Toxic, shows
that 40 officers from the rank Of colonel
downward, were killed, and that IS
from colonel downward were wounded.
The Russians, with heavy field guns,
bombarded the Shakhe River bridge.
Russian cavalry attacked Heilintun, but
were repulsed by Japanese cavalry.

TORCH Piled TO SURPLUS COTTON.
The South is Thus Meeting Slump in the
Market.

Atlanta, GA. (Specia) Facing bank
ruptcy because of the tremendous slump
in cotton, the farmers and merchants
are taking heroic measure to prevent
further fall and to advance the price
of the staple. This measure is no less
than burning portion of the cotton
which has not been marketed. 1t is
proposed that 100000 bales be destroy
ed, each state to burn its pro rata.
The burning began i'll Georgia, and it
is estimated that several thousand bales
of cotton a,c now blazing in the south
ern section OF the state. At Fort Gaines
alone over 800 bales were burned, and
other towns report similar bonhres.
There was much ceremony observed i'll
burning the cotton at Fort Gaines.
Farmers came from all over the county
to Join with the merchants. The cotton
was rolled into the Courthouse square
and after the merchants and farmers
had marched around it in procession the
torch was applied. In several other
towns scenes similar to those in Fort
Gaines were enacted.
1t is estimated that more than $780,
600 worth of cotton was destroyed. Ii
is said that the example set by Georgia
will be generally followed throughout
the cotton producing states.

the whipping-post in the District. The
question has been considerably agtatec

of the grand jury is as follows:
"The deSirability of establishing the
whippingpost as a means Of Furnishing
wifebeaters and petty larceny ohenses
has been investigated by this body, anG
the majority of the members are Of the
opinion that it would prove very effec.
tive in decreasing the number of these
rcprehensible crimes"
A recommendation that persons about
to be married produce evidence Of free.
dom from certain diseases also is made
"A recent case brought before u.s.
the grand jury says, emphasizes the
need of having men and women about
TO unite in matrimony produce evidence
that they are free from loathsome OF
infectious diseases before being granted
licenses to marry"
