Lessons of the War.

The lessons of the war waged by
Japan are by no means confined to
victories and remarkable skill and en-
durance in Titanic struggle. We do
not alone have to study the prepared
ness for war, or her early control of
the sea, or her use of torpedo boats,
or her use of the bayonet and the night
attack on the part of disciplined and
fearless troops. All of these are sig
nficant and valuable, but there is an
other direction in which Japan has
won imperishable honor We refer to
the sanitary and medical work done
in her armies.
BY careful preparation and by the
use of modern skill in her army and
navy Japan has reduced the deaths
from disease and from lack of care to
the wounded to a minimum. Usually
such deaths far outnumber the num-
Der killed In battle. In our war with
Spain fourteen dead from disease for
every one killed in battle, and when
the French sent fifteen thousand men
to Madagascar in 1894, twenty-nine
were killed in battle, and seven thous-
and died from disease. The Japanese
have reduced such losses almost to
nothing.
Not that they possess any better
methods or any superior knowledge,
but in their honesty of purpose and
patriotism they apply what they know
with unapproached thoroughness, care
and system. They have taught the
western nations a valuable lesson.
There is abundant humanity in ia
pan, but no more than there is in Ger
many, France, England or the United
States. They have, however, more
patriotism, and best of all, graft IS
unknown in Japan. 1t is not sought
and not expected, and it would not be
forthcoming If it were. The truth is,
the world has rarely, If ever seen such
patriotism as Japan is manifesting
daily in the war with Russia. This IS
why she knows only victory.

Col. Johns Is All Rinht.

Colonel Johns may have acted i'm
pulsively. Honest men are apt to be
impulsive. He desired to pay .trib-
ute to Henry F. DeBardeleben, and he
did not wait to consider or to consult.
He is not that sort of man. He acts
independently from his own eonyic-
lions.
Three thousand dollars is not an
amount that can be picked up in the
road every day. Colonel Johns offered
to take that sum from his own pocket,
and to apply it to Vulcan on the condi
ton that he could use it as a testi-
monial to the services of his friend
to this district. Mr.. DeBardeleben's
modesty frustrated the plan. But that
is no reason why Colonel Johns gen
erous impulses should be publicly,
flippantly and sarcastically condemned.
Altogether Col. Johns seems to have
been ill-used. He meant no harm to any
man. He accepts Mr.. DeBardeleben's
proposition as the better of the two.
lie believes that aid to the i'll and in
jured would be a better monument to
his friend than the huge Iron Man.
Colonel Johns had right to change
his base. He is lined up behind Henry
F. DeBardeleben, and the indications
are that the better part of this district
will fall in behind Colonel Johns. The
afflicted are much more important
than an entire regiment of Vulcans.

CIGAR STATES.
Pennsylvania Leads, New York Is
Second and Ohio Third.

From the New York Sun.
For many years the competition be-
tween imported Havana cigars and hand
made Key West cigars has been going on
actively. with a general belief probably
that Key West was an important source
of supply of cigars.
Uncle Sam, who is a lynx-eyed collector
of revenue from cigar factories. takes
account in a year of 1000. 600 cigars,
that being the number of domestic cigars
smoked in a year. The number imported
from Cuba, the Philippines and other
places of supply is relatively insignificant.
OF this total the number of Key West
eigars-including with Key West the
whole state OF Florida, of which Key
West, through its proximity to Havana
and its large number of Cuban cigar
makers, is the chief producing point-is
25O00o,O00. In other words one twenty
eighth of the total number of cigars made
in the United States and smoked here are

in fact the only one Of the big tobacco
producing states which makes cigars in
large numbers. About one-half of the pro-
duct of Virginia factories is in the form

amount of tobacco. makes few cigars,

Birmingham a Mecca.

Birmingham is coming to be popular
place for persons who have weak lungs,
said young physician. During the past
few months ! have known Of several in
stances where people with weak lungs
have come to the Birmingham district
from northern and eastern states, and af-
ter few months stay in this city have
been entirely cured
zone case In particular mas come to my
attention of young lady who lived in
Illinois, who had been pronounced as a
consumptive and who after staying in
this district short time has been fully
restored to health.
when this young lady first came to
Birmingham she was instructed to go
out to Pratt City. where she could get the
full benefit of the smoke which came
from the coke ovens around that town.
After trying this treatment for several
weeks she was able to resume her duties
as a school teacher and is now teaching
in one of the public schools in this dis
trict and all traces of consumption have
disappeared.

Benefactors7 Well; what benefactors
are they? Are they not malefactors!
Measure for Measure.
Herr Kossuth in Vienna.

It was the Emperor Francis Joseph
himself who about fifty years ago con-
demned Louis Kossuth to death, and
when he could not catch him he caused
him to be hanged in effigy. The latter
effort on the part of the Emperor did
not harm Louis Kossuth, who, after
an extended tour in the country, set
tied down in Italy, where he died
peacefully at an extreme age.
Francis Kossuth, the independence
leader of Hungary, is a son of Louis
Kossuth, who fought for the independ-
enee of Hungary. Francis Kossuth
has maintained the fight on law-and-
order lines, and today his party con-
trolls Hungary, and it stands ready to
declare the absolute independence Of
Hungary as nation, but 1t is willing
to accept as a sovereign Francis Jo-
seph. Hungary and Austria would
thus become two independent nations
ruled for the moment by one sover.
eign.
The minor parties in Hungary have
been merged into the dependence
party, and Francis Kossuth recently
told the Emperor plainly that it would
be impossible to govern Hungary
without the help Of the independence
party, which now controls the lower
house of the Hungarian parliament
and which recently drove the ministry
out of power.
The formation of new ministry in
Hungary is now under consideration,
and Francis Kossuth was recently
called to Vienna to express his views
relative to it. The summoning of
Francis ,Kossuth SHOWS how rapidly
this world is drifting towards popular
government. France and the United
States lead the other countries, but all
the rest are keeping pretty we'll up in
the procession.

has made and the amount of fines and
sentences he has brought about. He
proposes to dismiss him as a disgrace
to humanity and decent government.
In January. 1904, the number of ar
rests in Birmingham was 1854; in jan
uary, 1905, the number was 693-a re-
duction of q per cent. This is very
satisfactory showing at once that
Chief Wier is intelligent and efficient,
and that his men are ready to meet
his orders. The compliment of the
police commission over the reduction
in the number of arrests was worthily
bestowed. But the number of arrests
in a month should not be permitted to
stop at 500. Five hundred arrests 2
month out of Birmingham popula-
ton would be high-higher than the
percentage of arrests in Memphis
Nashville or New Orleans, and far
higher than in the largest cities in the
land.

BATTLE HOUSE FIRE.
he Mobile Register.

From the Mobile Register.
The destruction of the Battle house by
fire last night removes one of the most
historic landmarks. not only of Mobile.
but of the country. The Battle house
was a famous hosiery long before many
of the oldest citizens of Mobile were
born. and during its long career has shell
tered more people than any other hotel
in the country perhaps.
In ante-bellum days ii was the resort
of the wealthy who came to Mobile from
all sections of the country, and was the
home of many of the wealthy planters
and their families. who spent the social
seasons in thei city. Within its ancient
walls have been observed many of the
most noted functions of this section, and
on occasions 1t has been the place of en-
tertalnment of even mobiles of the Older
countries.
In romances of the south the Battle
house has a place, and though 1t Las
been swept away by the rsmorseiess
flames it will live on. Its destruction
will be the source of general regret, no.
only because of the money loss, but be-
cause of the associations connected
with it.

From the Washington Post.
Representative Richardson tells of the
philosophy of an Alabama swain who
courted two girls living in adjoining
towns One was Sally, the other was
Mary.
Sally" says Mr.. Richardson, was a
very rdce girl, thrifty, industrious and
of domestic turn. The young man had
courted her in his earlier years. She
was not so pretty as some other girls.
When the young man had prospered and
earned little money, he became infat-
uated with Mary. sweet and pretty but
always idle The neighbors predicted a
match, but to their surprise, James, the
Swain in question. suddenly resumed his
earlier courtship. and he and Sally were

Large Salaries.

Il was interested the other day in read
ing list of the salaries paid to railroad
presidents" said a railroad man yester-
day. Samuel Spencer, who is president
of the Southern, the Alabama Great
Southern, the Mobile and Ohio, the Gin
cnnati Southern and director of other
roads receives salaries agregating over
100000 a year
M e. ingalls,, who has recently re-
signed as president of the Big -Four, and
is now chairman of the board of drec-
tors, draws $4,000.
william II. Newman, president of the
New York Central railroad and other
Vanderbilt lines, which takes in the Big
Four, is president of more railroads than
any other man in the world
There are great many surmises as to
the amount of his salary. While it is not
officially stated, a report which comes
from authoritative quarters, places Mr.
Newman's salary at 100000 year. This
does not take in concessions made for
him by w. Is. Vanderbilt for a residence
in New York city Added to his salary is
a private car which Is handsomely fitted
throughout. This car is Mo "A of the
New York Central equipment.
There are also other presidents that
receive high salaries The sum of $4,000
a year is not considered excessive for a
railroad president. When Mr. Scott was
president of the Pennsylvania the direc-
tors of that road voted a salary in the
six figures for him. raising it from $50, goo
Mr. Scott refused to take IL.
when Mr.. Thompson became president
of the Pennsylvania the salary was raised
to $4,000, but Mr.. Thompson declined the
extra compensation. The sum of $50, 900 a
year was paid the presidents until Mr..
Cassatt became the head of the road and
it is stated that the directors voted him
a salary in the six figures in order to
have him become the executive head of
the property"
