 Satisfied.
SHOE CONTRACT AWARDED

Montgomery, October 1S-fspecial)- There is the most unanimous commenda- ton for the way the Alabama health off, cers have handled the quarantine situa- ton, keeping all but the one lone case in montgomery and the two cases at Castle berry out of the state. This. too. in the race Of the fact that much of the line of florida, Louisiana and Mississippi was infected at one time or another. The governor and all the state officers have the greatest praise for Dr. W. H. San ders and his able assistant, Walter Bras sell, and all the efficient men under them.
 Dr. Sanders returned to his office today after some time at Castleberry, where there have been two eases, both fatal, of the fever. How 1t came there Is still mystery. Dr. Sanders said that he and the other physicians had puzzled over it, but had not been able to tell whence it out of the town.
 The danger at Castleberry Is not yet over. The mosquitoes that had chance to become impregnated with the poison can still pass it along, if there are any of them left after the hot campaign of disinfection and fumigation. There is fear yet, and the officers are taking every precaution to prevent any spread if new cases should develop.
 Big Shoe Contract. The state convict department, through President Shirley Bragg, this morning closed contract with the Ham Shoe company for 25Oo pairs of shoes to be used for the convicts at the various camps where the state has the furnishing. This is one of the best contracts se- cured for some time, and the shoes, hay ing been tried, are regarded by Dr. Bragg and his associates as the best to be had of the kind.
 The convict board has ratified con- tracts made some days ago with the Henderson Lumber company at Sanford. w. w. Yarn & Co.,, at River Falls and Bullard- Sellers & Co.,, in the same sec tion of the pine section.
 Dr. Bragg is well satisfied with all that is going on and looks forward to a successful administration. Several other supply contracts of minor importance have also been signed.

 The first step necessary was the per lection of metal plates for receiving the records, as any other material would be too perishable. About four hundred records have been made, including an address by the Austrian Kaiser and re cords of Josef LeWinsky, Marie von Eb- ner-E Eschenbach and Ferdinand yon Saur. The Neue Freie Presse says: "The chief object of the institution, however, is to make records of dialect. at present the. German and Austrian having been excellently reproduced. There have also been recorded the Sla- vic, Servian, Modern Greek, Portuguese and Brazilian languages, while of par ticular interest are the records repre- senting the religious songs and dialects of the natives of India, some of which are now extinct. There are also re- cords of Arabian and Bedouin songs and dialects A short time ago two ex- petitions were fitted out, one of which, under the leadership of pr. Poech, has penetrated New Guinea. to reproduce the speech of the Papuans. The other, under, the leadership of Dr. Exner, has gone to India in order to record the songs of the natives. Each expedition is preceded by trained scholars who prepare the subjects to be recorded. = Public Opinion.

 (assumfng the estimated rate of tiHing) high stages of the lake will reach the

 at ordinary lake stages, and after if

LULU CHASER.

Yn Miss Lulu Glaser's delightful inn peSonation of Mary Tudor in "A Mad cap9 Princess" at the Hyperion next Friday--the lyric version of Charles Majof,s great novel, When Knighthood Was in F1ower"-it is charming to watch the clever comedienne's scenes with her brother, "Bluff King Hal," the role of Henry VIII., by the way, being admirably played and sung by that sterling artist, William Pruette. When ever his quick temper runs away with his kingly dignity and leads him into most unroyal scenes with his hoydenish sister, she immediately initiates him Mhen his back is turned, and with a facility and surety of artistic finish, that stanps it at once as among the very cleverest touches that Miss Chaser has yet added to a manner of interpreta- kion which consists, to be sure, almost wholly of clever touches.

Systematic Giving msures Habits of . ~s.--. hs. Thrift. .,,~-~. ~
 E The father may be of great assistance to his boy when he. is old enough to have an allowance of spending money. A boy's first idea of the use of money is to buy everything which attracts his fancy. When an allowance is made him, he should be advised as to it's pro per expenditure, but if he is to learn to spend wisely, he must be permitted to use his own judgment, When he has made few mistakes, and finds himself out Of money before the day on which he receives it, he will learn to spend more carefully the next time.
 A father sometimes prefers the plan of giving money to the boy as he may feel disposed; sometimes the amount may be very liberal at other times very meager, and at others, none at all. The method has nothing to recommend it and cannot possibly teach the boy the proper use of money. If he has only to beg his father long enough to procure any desired amount, there will be no reason for his exercising any care in spending it.. Although the amount he reives simply depends upon the generos- ity of his father. he will, in time, come to demand it as a right and he will spend it as his fancy may dictate. From this method, he will never culti- vate economy, nor learn to save large amounts by small sacrifices. and the saving of small amounts. D. .-~..
 If an allowance is promised child it should be paid as punctually as to 8 business man. Otherwise, he will inn bibe ideas of laxity in money affairs which will hurt his business career. Allow the boy to decide whether the al lowance is to be paid to him in money or credited to his account in book which he may keep for the purpose. It will probably be more satisfactory to both parties for the money to be paid each week, and the boy may learn to save 1t by opening an account at a say ings bank. The amount of the allow ance may be exceedingly small, but it will be sufficient to give him a feeling of independence.
 The accumulation of money and the necessary discipline are great educa- tors, and the father who teaches his son to expend 1t wisely, has prepared him for many of the serious problems of life. As husband and father, the man of the house has the power to make home very happy or miserable.
 He is looked up to with reverential love unless he himself destroys that senti- ment, and he is the greatest man in the world to his son until he lowers the standard set for him.--Pilgrim.
