SUCCEEDS HIS FATHER
MICHEL SCREWS NAMED AS JUS-
 TICE OF THE PEACE.
Recording Secretary of Governor sworn i'm as Magistrate in Beat Five Young Man of Great
 Promise.

Michel H. Screws, Recording Secre.
 tary of the Governor. was yesterday appointed Justice of the Peace In Beat 1 5, Montgomery, by Acting Governor Cunningham He succeeds his father | the late Capt. Benjamin H. Screws, who
 held the office for a number of years | MT. Screws will continue to act as the Governors Recording Secretary until
 his successor has been named. Acting Governor Cunningham said yesterday
 that he would soon appoint a secretary
 to fill the vacancy who would hold office | until the return of Governor Jelks. | when the latter would make a perma . l nent appointment.
 w. R. McDade, Chief Clerk to Pro- bate Judge Gaston, yesterday swore in Mir. Screws as Justice of the Peace for Beat 5. He will be located in the for mer office of his father, on Washington Street.
 The recommendations of Mir. Screws were many and high from the leading members of the Montgomery bar There was not another applicant for the office, indicating that 1t was the
 unanimous opinion of the public as well as the judgment of the Governor that his son should succeed the late revered Captain Screws.
 Mir. Screws is regarded as eminently qualified for the office to which he has been appointed. He was graduated in 1900 with distinction from the Law De- partment of the University of Ala bama. For a while after leaving col. lege he practlced law in the office of ex x-Governor William c. Oates. By the late Governor Sanford he was appoint ed Recording Secretary. and has con- tinued in the office since then.
 MT. Screws has been in the public service longer than any other man in the State of his age. He is a young, in his early twenties. Before he was 10 years old he was a page in the House of Representatives. During the time he has been associated with the Cover por's office he has exhibited remarkable qualities of mind. His keen intellect, courteous manner and fund of ready in- formation have endeared him to public men in all parts of the State
 He is the only son of the late Cap tain Screws. There is no young man more popular in Montgomery than Mi- chel Screws, and it is predicted that he will administer his new office with suc- cess.

The Judge Who Drank

A distinguished Southern statesman tarried long with convivial friends a few afternoons ago. When 1t came time for him to go to dinner he was somewhat unsteady. but very dignified. He saw as soon as he sat down at his table in the hotel dining room that it would be necessary for him to do some thing to divert his wife's suspicion, ana he seized on the appearance of anoth- CT and equally distinguished Southern statesman. who had been with him all the afternoon. as a topic of conversa- ton. Isn't 1t a shame" he said as the other statesman made his way to his seat at the next table. isn't it 8. shame that the judge drinks I am very sorry to see it. It pains me much" His remarks attracted atten- tion, and his wife, knowing she must say something. leaned over and re- marked: 'ls it possible that the judge has been drinking My dear" said the statesman, summoning all his will power and drawing himself up in his chair, lis it possible that you cannot tell when a man has been drnking?"

An Italian soldier policeman took me by the necK and threw me across the street, the girl scratched me with her finger nails and bit me, and yelled some grand hailing sign of distress, her brother and a ragged boy that was in love with the girl, and was jealous. drew dag gers. and the whole crowd yelled mur- der, and 1 started for our hotel on a run. and the whole population of Rome seemed to follow me, and I might as well have been a negro accused of crime in the States. I thought they would burn me at the stake, but dad came out of the hotel and threw a handful of small change into the crowd, and 1t was all of.
 After they picked up the coin they beckoned me to come out and play some more. but not any more for little Hennery. I have been in love in all countries where we have travelled, and in all languages, but this Italian love takes the whole bakery, and do not go around any more without a chaper- one. The girls are ragged. and wear shawls over their heads, and there are holes in their dresses and their skin isn't white. like American girls, but Is what they call olive complexion. like stuffed olives you buy in bottles. stuffed with cayenne pepper, but the giIls are just like the cayenne pep per, so warm that you want to throw water on yourself after they have touched you. Gee. but I wouldn't want to live in a climate where girls were a torrid zone, cause I should melt. like an icicle that drops in a stove, and makes steam, and blows up the whole house.
 We'll, old man, you talk about churches, but you don't know anything about it. Dad and I went to St. Peters s in Rome, and it is the grandest thing in the world. Say, the Congregational Church at home, which we thought so grand. could be put in one little corner

St. Peters covers ground about half a mile square, and when you go in- side and look at grown people on the other side of it, they look like flies, and the organ is as big as a block of build ings in Chicago, and when they blow it you think the last day has come, and yet the music is as sweet as melodeon, and makes you want to get down on your knees with all the thousands of good Christians of Italy, and confess that you are d fraud, that ought to be arrested.
 Dad and I have been to all kinds of churches, everywhere, and never turned a hair, but since we got to this town, and got some Of the prevailing religion into our systems. we feel guilty, and it seems as though everybody could see right into us, and that they knew we were heather, that never knew there was a God. Sure thing, I never sup posed there were so many people in the world that worshipped their Maker. as there are here, and don't wonder that all over the world good people look to Rome for the light. Dad keeps telling me that when we get home we will set an example that will make people pay attention, but he says he does not want to join the church until he has seen all the sights, and then he will swear off for good
 He said to me yesterday: Now, Hem nery have been to all the pious places with you, the Pope's residence, the cat acornbs and St. Peters, where they preach from forty different places, and make you feel like giving up your sins, and I have looked at carvings, and decorations, and marble and jewels, and seen the folly of my ways of life, and I am ripe for a change, but before give up the world and all of it's wick edness I want blood. I want to go to the other extreme, and see the wild beasts at the Coliseum tear human be- .inRs limb from limb, and drink their blood, and see gladiators gladiate, and chop down their antagonists, and put one foot on their prostrate necks. like they do in the theaters, and then I am ready to leave this town, and be good.
 Well. sir. have been in lots of tight places before, but this one beat the band Here was my dad. who did not know that the Roman gladiator busi- ness had been off the boards for over 2,0O0 years. that the eating of human prisoners by wild beasts in the pres ence of the Roman pOpulace was play ed out, and that the Coliseum was a ruin and did not exist as a place of amusement. He thought everything that he had read about the horrors of a Roman holiday was running today, as a sideshow, and he wanted to see 1t, and had encouraged him in his ideas,

 Elephants have also been known to show their grief in this way. During an elephant hunt in Ceylon one of the spectators relates that many of the ele- plants when bound showed no feeling except grief. and remained perfectly notionless while the tears streamed from their eyes. Female elephants are often affected in the same way when their young are taken from them.
