game without a pocketful of Wads-
worth Bros "Chicos." With one Of
those stuck in his face he can root 70
his hearts desire, and when down on
his luck get consolation from his
fragrant "Chicos."
II he should happen to lose a few

cent smoker would ever call them 5
cent cigars. They are made of long
Havana filler. smoke clear and free,
and always leave a good taste in the
mouth.
B. A. Morgan, the local agency for
the "Chicos," has laid in good sup
ply for the base ball season. Try one
and you will want some more.

Cosmopolitan Makeup.

''The cosmopolitan makeup or this county is not generally understood said a furnace operator yesterday. we have 25O Greeks, 16O Syrians, 800 Slavs from Bohemia, and 5000 Italians. And that Is not alive wish we had ten times as many more. We have no Greeks, Syrians, Slavs or Italians to spare. We need thous- ands more,
 "The Italians are excellent workers at the coke ovens and at the mouths or mines; the Slavs soon become good mi ners, while the Greeks and Syrians are ready to become traders and middlemen, wherever they can find an opportunity. All are sober, industrious and peaceably inclined.
 New York city and New England may have had many of the people from the shores of the Mediterranean, but this district has no surplus of them. and does not expect to have. Alabama would be better off if she had 100000 Italians at work today, and the new immigration movement may perhaps be able to bring this way enough to occupy our untitled lands and fill our industries with men who are willing to work six days in the week.

LUTHER BURBANK.

From Trotwood's Monthly. He touched the spiculed desert--cacti-
 cursed And turned it's thorns to figs, It's thistles,
 fruit; He nodded to the daisy, half immersed In dwarfing dust, and lo' lily mute Rose from the weeds--a perfume with a
 flute. And flowers ran to meet him-trailins
 vine And wild hedge -roses--they whose souls
 had died Beneath the feet of cattle and of kine-- Sought him-those pallid Magdalenes-
 and cried To touch his hem, and so stood glorified. Trees dwarfed and soulless-fruits with
 hearts of stone, Welded at his word and in the sacred
 tryst Of loves united. that had yearned alone. Gave to the world the nectar of their In pitless peaches, crimsonsd with .
 kiss. Who plants his poems in berry's bed, Or writes. with wild roses, sonnets to
 the sun, Hangs pictures on orchard boughs in gold
 and red, Makes epics of fruitland where before,
 were none. Is Poet, Painter, Preacher-Master-a
 in one!

Friction in Manchuria.

The treay of Portsmouth does not suit the Chinese in two respects, name ly, a delay of eighteen months in the evacuation of Manchuria, and the re- tention of 15,O00 troops as railroad guards along the lines owned in Man. churia by Russia and Japan. They say the armies should be withdrawn in nin1 months, and that they themselves are able to protect the railroads un- aided.
 The Chinese protests in these two respects have been laid before St. Petersburg and Tol1io, and modifca- tions of the practice under the treaty of Portsmouth may be granted. If they are not, China will drill and place troops no doubt ready to meet the proposed railway guards.
 If Japan and Russia desire to avoid friction-if they desire to conciliate C01nd-lney VIII grant tuc iC"Soh"pio requests that Pekin presents. They will give China an opportunity to carry out her promises of protection. The subject of railways guards is distress in~ to the Chinese, who have been trampled upon so long and so freely. China may not at present be able to enforce her wishes in her own terri tory, but it is by no means certain that she will not be able to do so in the coming years. Japan can set Rus sia a good example in the matter of railway guards, for If Japan accepts Chinese protection Russia will be com pelled to do likewise in order to avoid enmity and friction where she is no longer in a position to apply effective coercion.

Athletic Field.

'Seeing a number of High school boys going out to the West End ball park to practice football reminds me of the need of an athletic field for the exclusive use Of the public school boys said the father of several boys yesterday.
 ''The High school has for many years organized good teams in baseball, foot ball and other sports, although under disadvantages. Not only their games but the'r every day practices required the use of West End park. The boys have organized an athletic association this year. and selected a captain and mana ger for the football team. Though school has been in session but a week, they have already secured several good prac- tices.
 "The conversion of East End park into field for the playing of football and baseball would result in much pleasure and good to the boys and would add an attractive feature to. our public school system Several members of the board of aldermen have signified their approval of the plan, and I trust that the board will provide for it.

Free kindernartens.

'"rhe seven free kindergartens In BIT mingham do work that can hardly be over estimated" said Mrs. J. H. Phil lips, president of the Birmingham Free Kindergarten association, yesterday.
 ''rhe seven institutions last year reach ed over 400 children between the ages Of 3 and years, and too young to enter the public schools. By October l when all the kindergartens will be open we expect to have total enrolment of nearly 600.
 "One thing that has held the local Kim dergarten association back in it's work and prevented the establishment of more and better schools for the little tots is the fact that we receive no appropriations from the city. All of our funds are se- cured by private subscription and from the tuition in the training class for young women.
 'If we had a small appropriation from the city it would be difficult to say what would be the limits of our work. In Atlanta, l am told. the city fathers have set aside $500 a year, and even Bessemer gives an annual appropriation. to the sup port of the free kindergartens in that town"

Qualifications of Officials.

The new town of Jonesboro has raised a new question: Is office con fined to electors, that Is to say, to those legally qualified to vote? Can didate Martin received in the towns first election a majority of the votes cast, but his opponent, Chambers Me Adory, was at once sworn in, although he received but a minority of the popular vote.
 Mir. McAdory claims that the voters who voted for MT Martin voted for an ineligible man, inasmuch as MT. Martin did not pay poll tax before February 1, and could not therefore become a registered voter-a qualified elector so to speak MT. McAdory says that only electors can hold office. MT. Martin says that any male citizen can be elevated by his fellow citizens to any office in the land. The rights Of the citizens in general are involved, says MT. Martin If they are limited In their choice to men registered, where is the law that prescribes such limitations?
 Jonesboro's debut thus raises a great moral and political issue, one that the courts of this state do not seem to have passed upon, and the can didate-elect seems inclined to test the uppermost MT. McAdory"s claim to the mayoralty of Jonesboro. To become the first mayor of town is no small distinction, and MT. Me Adory will have to make his point good before he attains to that distinc- ton.
