MHERE MEN ARE BELLIES.

Troy. y. Y, is pre-eminenty wo-
mans town, and is probably the only
place in the world where women re-
ceive larger salaries than men, accord
ing to an interesting article in the Buff
falo Times Troy's chief industry is
the making of collars and cuffs and the
laundering of half a states linen The
factories and Iaundries employ about
10000 girls, who earn from SIS to $50
a week, the annual payroll amounting
TO something like $4,000. 600 a year.
Men are employed to do the rough
work. receiving an average wage of not
more than SO or 81 a week.
Recently the leading women Of the
place gave a ball. which was attended
by 1000 girls and 500 men. The ex-
penses were borne by the girls, each of
whom was permitted to bring one gen

by as many as forty bridesmaids, but

cusA's GRAND OLD MAN.

BY the death Of General Maxine Co
meg. Cuba loses probably its greatest
patriot During a large part Of forty
years Gomez was active I'm the field
against the Spanish oppressors. and
was one of the men who helped TO keep
alive the spirit Of freedom that at
length eliminated IN the establishment
of the present republic
He had a stirring career Born in
san Domingo in 1886, he enlisted as a
private in the ranks of the Cuban in
surgents in 1858. and fought through
out the ten years rebellion, gaining the
rank Of general Following the sup
preston of that rebellion he was forced
10 flee and lived i'm Jamaica and Cen
trial America until 1885, when he re
turned IN cuba and. with AIaceo and
Crcubet, attempted to organize anoth-
er revolution In this he failed. but ten
years later again essayed the task This
time ne was more successful. The Wig
c~ouS guerilla warfare mauGuraUed by
him and carried out with the assistance
Of Nacec. Cisneros and others enabled
The insurgents to overrun almost all the
outfviug. provinces and resulted in the
recall of Campos and the substitution
Of the savage WeyIeT- The brutal policy
Of WeyIer had the effect of strength
ening the revolutionary forces and a
bitter campaign of retaliation and dew
astation was begun that continued to
the time of the American invasion In
addition to his military operations Go
mez was largely instrumental in or
eanizing the revolutionary government
that existed despite the efforts of Spain
to suppress it.
He was popular idol i'm Cuba and
typical guerrilla leader. gaunt Of frame,
sinewy and of iron endurance. Al
though he took a prominent part in the
preliminary work CT organizing the re-
public after the Spsnish-American war,
he has not been especially conspicuous
politically since the establishment of
the republic Efforts were recently
made. however. to bring him forward
as a candidate for the presidency to
succeed Palma, but his failing health
and the exigencies of Cuban politics
caused the collapse of the movement
As an evidence of the esteem in which
he was held by the CUbans. it IS inter
esting 10 note that he had been voted
a total sum of $4,000 by the Cuban
congress, the last installment of $1,000
having been delivered to his family on
the day of his death. He viii long be

Styling himself an actor" Putnam
BradIee Strong. husband of May YOhe,
has filed a bankruptcy petition in New
York with liabilities Of S1.OsS and assets
Of 500. The assets consist of ten pairs
Of shoes. six suits OF clothes and five
hats. The liabilities are amounts due
for clothing, dinners and jewels.
For the sake of the dramatic profess
sion we trust Mr. Strong's assets are
not a fair sample of actors possessions.
We can forgive the five extra suits Of
clothing and the four supeTnUmeraTy
hats, but we balk at the shoes To say
they are necessary is a most humiliat-
ing confession in these days of dense
population and cheap railroad transpor-
tation. II is no longer necessary for
actors to count ties for a distance that
necessitates the employment of ten
pairs Of shoes Three, or at the most
four. pairs should enable a reasonable
man to reach point where he could
connect with frienCs or another show.
Unless further explanations are forth
coming We shall insist Mr.. Strong is an
extrava giant man.

Dubois PIeases the Texans.

In a happy speech to the people of
Fl Paso, Senator Dubois declared that
through the action of congress Texas
had. for a second time, been admitted
to the Union. Texas is not a public
land state, and for that reason was
not included in the list of states TO
benefit from the irrigation law, since
it could contribute nothing to the
reclamation fund At the last con-
gress a special bill was passed author
izing the expenditure Of part of the
reclamation fund in building an irrl-
cation system on the Rio Grande
river. which viii reclaim more than
150. 600 acres Of land in Texas. Sena-
tor Dubois alluded to this act on the
part of congress as again admitting
Texas to the Union, this time to the
union of irrigation states And the
way the Texans shouted would have
gratified congress could it have heard
the noise. Texas is as enthusiastic over
irrigation as any state in the west 1t
has been iTrigating with private cap
ital for many years, II has thousands
of acres under canals today But no
project i'm the state is so vast, so inn
portaut. or means so much as the ap-
portionment of part of the reclama-
ton fund TO irTigate in the Rio Grande
valley.

1t has long been known that the
grossest political frauds have been
practiced in Pennsylvania for many
years. The people of the country. in
Guiding Philadelphia. had come 10 tx
pect as d matter of course that the reg
ular ballot box stuf1ng. would take
place at each election IN Philadelphia.
outside opinion was TO the effect that
IL was Philadelphia's business first. End
that Philadelphia should make the first
move once in a while Philadelphia did
make a move. as in the case of the man
Salter. recently removed by Weaver
Salter was one of the ballot box stuf-
fers. was found out and skipped %
Mexico with several accomplices. After
a year or two away he came back to
stand trial and was acquitted An alibi
had been fixed uD and, it was openly
charged. a jury also had been fixed for
him He was acquitted, placed on the
city payroll again and the witnesses
who had proved" his "alibi' for him
were all well cared for By being given
public positions. The present mayor,
John Weaver, was the prosecuting at
torney in the Salter case and pro-
nounced the acquittaI "a miscarriage of
Justice" a remark which caused much
amusement among members of the
gang.
With conditions like this, it Is easy
to understand that the election crooks
had practically a free hand with guar
anteed protection if they got in trouble
Thus we are not surprised to learn that
promotions in the police. fire and public
works departments were made contin-
gent on the payment of political as
sessments and memberships in political
clubs; that each member of these de-
partments was required to register from
five to ten fictitious names as residents
at his home and to vote the names on
election day; that policemen were de-
tailed to escort squads of "repeaters'
from one polling place to another; that
hundreds of honest voters were kept
from the polls by the policemen and
rowdies working under the gangs di-
/ rection-
Weaver knows all this. and he knows
that once the present fight were permit
ted to assume political phase all that
has been accomplished would be lost
/ He has begun to clean out the depart
ments. The first policeman he dropped
was d man who had been arrested once
for larceny. once for highway robbery
four times for breach of the peace, three
times for drunkenness and had served
two years for assault and battery
Here was d fine exponent Of law and
order, There are probably hundreds
Of similar cases. Weaver has also
| abolished the political system of pro
motion in the departments and has or
! dered an investigation of the voting
| lists. He is acting much like a man who
knows what he is about, and his ring

Acting Mayor Gratified at Renerts He
 Acting Mayor C.. P. Mcintyre yes terday express satisfaction with the quarantine situation, the sanitary con- dition of Montgomery and the vigilance of the Board of Health.
 Tt is especially gratifying" said tho Acting Mayor. that our people are taking such a sensible view or the situation. The physicians assure me that there is absolutely no need for alarm. They have convinced me that it Is now impossible for other persons to become infected from the imported case of fever and the health of Montgomery was never better Tor the month og August.
 ' went to the State Capitol today and made a careful investigation of the States quarantine system. You can say that l am more than well pleased with the work being done un- der the direction of pr. w. H. Sanders of the State Health Department. There has been unwarranted criticism of the eficiency of the State quarantine. II is working perfectly and the manage ment of 1t deserves the highest commen- dation. No passenger cars are allowed into Alabama from Louisiana. At ths State line all cars from New Orleans ara turned back and no cars from tho in' fected district are used in this State Our people have no ground for feai of a lax quarantine system"

ANXIETY sUBsIDED.
Health Department Had Few Queries
 Daring Day.

 During Day.
 Everything was quiet at the City Hall yesterday. Few inquiries as to quarantined towns against Montgom- cry were received, which in contrast with tho large number of excited que- ries of the day before indicated that the people are beginning to see the folly of becoming needlessly alarmed over the fever situation.
 No official notice of Quaratine raised by any of the neighboring towns in Alabama were received in the Mayors once and a telegram was received from the Mayor of Columbus, Ga, stat ing that Columbus would not quaran- tine against Montgomery unless the situation grew into something more serious than at present.
 The work of the sanitary depart ment went on as usual and the re- ports handed in by the fourteen in- spectors at the close of the days work were exceedingly gratifying. Sev- erai negro quarters on the outskirts of the city, which are ordinarily filled with trash and dirt are as clean as a new swept kitchen floor. Indolence among citizens of every section of the city as to the disregard of clean streets and premises has become a thing of the past and everyone seems to be working with a right good will to keep the city in its present state of excellent sanitation.
 Chief Clerk J. J. Farley is person. ally experimenting the work of the Sanitary Department and he expressed himself as well pleased over the con dition of the city. Cases of sickness are few and far between and every case has been investigated by the au- thorities with the result that no cases that have the least iota of suspicion about them have come to the notice of the department. Chief Clerk Far ley said that the department would take charge of the Capitola Hotel on Commerce Street where the case of Minnihett developed this morning and that the building would be fumigated from top to bottom.

coMrLIMENrED MIR. OLIVER.
Tenants of We'll Known Farmer Cav
 Him q Barbecue.


 In recognition of his courtesy and kindness, the tenants of T. W. Oliver. one of Montgomery County's best known and most extensive planters. rendered him Wednesday an old fash- toned barbecue on his place. seven miles from Montgomery. on the Mount Meigs Road.
 The tenants and their families. num- bering nearly 400 persons. gathered at the picnic ground and spent the day in the best of spirits in which Mir. Oliver was the toast of the occasion. His tenants euiogized his management of his lands where they lived and worked and it Is safe to say that no happier man could have been found in the entire State that day.
 The barbecue was a distinct surprise to Mfr. Oliver and the thoughtfulness of his tenants and the spirit which prompted them to act affected him deeply. A fine dinner, of barbecued meats. camp stew and vegetables con- stituted the feast.
 The committee which had charge of the arrangements of the dinner was composed of J. H. Moseley. D. R. Rob- erson, Dave Ross, D. w. Jarrett and D. W. Williams.

 Hotel men did not feel depressed over the situation. In fact most or the hotels had their usual number Of guests. Men were reGistered from various sec tions of the country. Comercial sales men were not nervous. They express cd some disappointment that their movements were hampered. but had no fear of an outbreak of fever at any point in Alabama.
 The general public of Montgomery has been impressed with the candor of the Board of Health and there Is un- doubtedly a feeling of genuine con- fidence in the physicians who have given the most positive assurances that the people will be advised promptly of every change in the situation.
