President Faunce, OF Brown

words in his most recent bac-
calaureate sermon: Among the
certain temptations to which our
eager occidental life is peculiarly
liable is the constant tendency of
the work to master the workmen.
The real failures in our Industrial
life are the men whose revenues
are advancing while their souls
are shriveling. The most efficient
workers Of the modern world are
those who will not be hurried"

Pros porous Alabama.

The prosperity of Alabama today exceeds that of any previous period in the entire history of this state. It is not confined to this district, or to few cities-it is general, extending to every one of the sixty-seven counties within the generous bounds of the state. Not a single county goes un- touched and unaffected by this grand wave of prosperity.
 The cities are gathering in factories and population, and the agricultural districts are marking up the prices of lands as practical result of the steady demand for them. Today farm lands are firmly held. They have deh- nite and minimum fixed values, and no holder will sell below those values. The growth in values is not confined to timbered lands which are appreciat- ing rapidly, but it extends to all cultl- yatable lands-to all lands that skill and industry can render productive.
 Not since the days of war have farm lands had in this state fixed and stable and marketable values. In many years and in many sections they have been unsalable except at a song, but all that has been changed, and farm lands are as firmly held at present as any other kind of property, and prices are stead fly advancing.
 The towns feel this change, and they thus become doubly prosperous. TheH have their own prosperity, and the, share in the general prosperity of th' state. Never before, not even befof' the war, was Alabama so generally prosperous. All share in 1t, and al are glad they live in Alabama. Ihe man who would leave Alabama today is a man who does not understand anf appreciate the situation

A Case of Parental Devotion.

In The Age Herald of yesterday was printed the statement made by de- voted father regarding the conduct or hswayward son-a statement which, so long as man is man, can not fall to touch deeply and tenderly the hu- man heart.
 'T am his father" said the gray haired parent, as he related at police headquarters the story of his son shortcomings. "and all the love that parent entertains for a child have for this wayward boy. The height of my ambition would be to take him home to his mother, who is prostrated over his conduct and his arrest. No matter what he has done, he Is our child. and we love him as only father and a mother can love a child. It Is but natural that we hold such views concerning him. r
 There is something fin<lK noble in these words of this heart-broken father the illustration of devotion which, though fundamentally natural enough, is yet not always met with nowadays when life Is too often become so tragi' cally "a struggle for existence"
 Too frequently parents are inclined to be ruled in emergencies like this rather by unnatural than by natural impulses. Pilate-like, they become too easily apostates, washing their hands the while of the relation parental re- sponsibility may devolve upon them It Is, indeed, refreshing to cite the notable example of this devoted father and of this more than devoted mother To each of them the sympathy of all persons acquainted with the case goes out sincerely and abundantly.
 The young man has erred, and erred grievously: but true men and true women will not withhold their admira tion for the parents. wrthing now as l they must needs be under the sorrow that has whelmed them. Whatever record leap to light they surely, though shamed by their sons misconduct, can 1 in no sense be blamed.

Birminaham's I0nnaqe.

Ore and fuel and Aux, and cement rock. are raw materials which must be moved by rail that they may be turned into merchantable forms, which in turn must be moved by rail, and all this moving over iron rails constitutes the glory of this dstrict-tonnage!
 Twenty millions of tons to be moved in this district every year. One ton is a ponderous thing, and when that ton is multiplied twenty million times the mind almost fails to grasp the aggre- gate.
 . The total cotton crop grown this year from Virginia to the Rio Grande, from Missouri to the Gulf is equal to less than one-seventh of the Birming- ham districts tonnage. The cotton crop of seven long years would but equal it. No city in the south handles twenty million tons by rail year, not even New Orleans with its great grain traffic. This is why hign official of the Illinois Central recently said that Birmingham and the Birmingham dis trict have notably attracted the atten- ton of the financial world. In the rail way world the district holds a promi- nent position. All lines are seeking entrance to the city. The Illinois Cen tral, in recently investing here $550,- 900, demonstrated the faith it has in tlis, the most virile city in the south. '
 Tonnage makes it virile from a transportation point of view and it's vrlity will be increased year by year If the past history of the district be a criterion. Coal is really King here Our virility is based on cheap fuel. Ill 1880 we mined but 323,972 tons. That was twenty-five years ago. In 1890 We mined 4,O90, ,4O9 tons. That was fifteen years ago. In 1900 we mined S,247.921 tons. That was five years ago. This year our aggregate will be between i2,oOO.OOO and 13,OOO,O0O tons. The growth in the past will be equaled in

 months of the year the climatic ad vantages run greatly in favor of Ala bama. When one can blow any month in the year or build house, or do any other outdoor work, the difference is seen at a glance. The soil in Alabama is not tied up half the year, nor is the owner of the soil shut within doors n day by the severity of the climate.
 The rainfall in Alabama is about fifty inches a year, which is just enough. The rainfalls of Wisconsin and Alabama are similar, but the rairl fall in Alabama can be utilized in all |. a months by growing truck or fruit in their best months. Strawberry plants have, for example, more months to grow in. and so 1t is with many other products. Two crops of irish potatoes can be grown, and the smart cultiyator can take advantage or the open climate in Alabama the year round. for frost and ice and snow are not obstacles in this state to human endeavor.
 The schools, too, of Jefferson county are excellent, and are becoming better every year. They are open nine months in the year, and an ambition to make them superior has sprung up in all parts of this big and populous county.
 To good schools are added ample church sittings in every precinct, rural free delivery routes to the number of thirty-five, and trolley lines that have a trackage exceeding a hundred miles. The districts that the trolleys do not serve the steam roads do, so that the entire county, big as it is, may be said to be suburban
 he population of the county is ap- preaching 100000. There are few coun- ties in the United States that have a greater population. There is room in the county for hundreds of dairies, poultry farms, pigeon plants, truck gar dens, and bee establishments, and I their products can be marketed at good prices in the many cities and mining camps of the county, generally at full retail prices.

Great Preachers.

'"rhe Rev. Father Mcdonald and the Rev. Father Flanagan, who come to Bir- mingham to conduct a mission at St. Paul's church. are among the ablest priests in this country" said a promi- nent citizen.
 'I happened to hear Father Mcdonald preach last spring. I did not know who he was 'youngish' man with a pleasant face, the visiting clergyman made a fine impression from the mo- ment he entered the pulpit.
 He first read the notices for the week and his clear voice, perfectly modulated. could be heard in every part of the large church He next read one of St. Paul's epistles and then the gospel appointed for the day. I never heard but one reader that l liked so we'll While I marveled at Father McDonald's elocuton l was won dering whether he would measure up well in the subject matter of his sermon or whether he was all voice and style. He proved himself an uncommonly strong preacher He was not only eloquent but his sentences were clear cut and what he said was at once luminous, informing and edifying.
 "A few years ago I attended the Domin- ican church in Louisville and heard there splendid preacher, whose reading of the notices and the scriptures was sngu- larly impressive.
 "On the other hand, I have heard great intellectual preachers of exceptional pull pit talents who started out in prosy way,
 but who unfolded, and in ten minutes after announcing the text had the au- dience spellbound. A notable example of this class of orators is bishop Alpheus W. Wilson of the Methodist church, south He is a prince of preachers. The first time l heard him was when general conference met at Richmond. l said to a Methodist friend that 1 desired to hear the greatest man in attendance at con ference He said Hear Bishop Wilson, Trinity church. where the bishop preach | ed was somewhat out of the way but | it was packed. The congregation seemed | to be made up mostly of plain people. | Bishop Wilson was dry at the start, but when he warmed up he was matchless l in his homiletic skill and oratory. His
 sermon was rare specimen of dialectics. l l. was marked by close reasoning from | first to last and was without metaphor | or anecdote. Yet so eloquent and clear was it that even the unlettered men and women in the vast crowd were rapt.
 Bishop Wilson preached one hour and
 twenty minutes and when he finished I was sorry he did not preach an hour
 longer. l heard the bishop frequently af-
 ter that. He always began in prosy way
 but he was always the great preacher | one of the greatest in my opinion, that 1 has ever lived, and I heard Henry Ward l Beecher, and nearly all the other nota- | ble clergymen of Beechers day"

Birmingham in Other Eyes.

Tn his first address before the Young Mems Christian association the Rev Dr. Wharton, the well-known evangel- ist, who is Is conducting revival serv- ices here, uttered these words by way of preface:
 "I am travelling man. and have been for thirty years. I have travelled over more territory than perhaps any other l travelling man in this house. not only in this. but in other countries. Twelve years ago I was in Birmingham conducting a meeting as one of the gentlemen stated in the Winnie Davis wgwam. I wish you could understand how Birmingham ap- pears to me now. in contrast to what 1t ! was then. Everybody spoke of it then as a busy, energetic prosperous young city, but it's progress, it's strides and it's thrift no man dreamt of, l am sure; and today, Birmingham, a great city of the south, it seems to me, is only the promise of what it will be-one of the most mag nificent r!aces of industry and cities of this great country"
 What Birmingham is, is but the pre- Jude of what it is to be. This is what all feel and think both at home and away from home.
 If cheap fuel and inexhaustible de- posits of ore mean here what they do elsewhere, then it follows that the val 1o,, oona too uida whicb canaratac the coal from the ore will be dotted with industries, and well filled with an industrious, contented people. That is what cheap fuel means in Pittsburg where ore has to be hauled fully . thousand miles. one-third of the dis tance being by rail. That Is the story of Cleveland, of Youngstown, of South Chicago.
 The story will be repeated, more than repeated here, because here, and here only, ore, fuel and Aux lie close between for mill and furnace sites and the homes of workers therein. This>is why faith in Birmingham future Is never lacking, and that faith is upheld year by year in natural and progressive development.
 The story of that development is elsewhere told this morning. and tho reader who is a believer In Birming hams future will not skip a line of it

the future. Every five years our ton nage-our virility-is increased fifty per cent. Any school boy can arith- medically ascertain what our tonnage will be twenty years hence, but no mind can grasp or define it. We are at the beginning of the development of mineral Alabama, section mora richly endowed by Nature than any other in this entire country, for we have what others have not, namely, all the raw materials that enter into the great commercial metal lying here in practically inexhaustible quantities side by side.
 Let us take a slate a moment and set down at the outset '12.000,000" our minimum production of coal at pres ent. In 1910 our production will De 1S,0OO ,O0O tons. In 1915 1t will be 27,- 0oo,0O0 tons In 1920 it will be 40,- GOO ,O00 tons
 It may be even more in 1920, for Bir- mingham will then lie on the Open Warrior. an arm of the sea, and ships of the biggest class will sail through the isthmus, scorning the rocks or Culebra, and carrying Alabama coal and coke, iron and steel cement and manufactured goods, to the ends of the earth The tonnage of this district Wal then be the boast and the toast of the nation.
