the dumping of undesirable immigrants
In any part of the South, and ] do not
believe that any such attempt Will be
made, or that IL could possibly reach
any measure of success IL It were made.
From my Investigation and experience
/ am convinced that the South has much
less to fear from any possibility OF
the Influx of undesirable immigration
than II has to apprehend that II may
be impracticable to divert to Southern
agricultural districts even a small frac-
tion of the good colonists who would be
welcomed cordially In any Northern
State.
Our association. at least. Is assured
that score of openings will be offered
willingly for our colonists In New
York State, IL there should be any dis
position in the South to withhold help
for the settlement of our picked peo-
pie. I certainly judge that The News
and Courier will be disposed to view
this subject with entire sanity, and will
not be carried away by any such un-
grounded apprehension as seems TO
have occasioned in part. at least, the
call for the approaching convention at
Chattanooga.
May I venture 10 hope that you will
be willing to communicate with our as
ISOLATION your views on this subject
and on our proposed work.
There Is a liability of very serious
drawback to eur undertaking II the
South in any representative way should
declare its prejudice against the incom-

ROAST The STATE FAIR

STRONG RESOLUTIONS.


Birmin cham, Noy. Especial. AT
n well attended meeting Of the BIZ
mingham District PASTORS Union
warm discussion took place this morn
ing in reference to the late Sac
held in Birmingham. Resolutions were
adopted condemning gambling AT tne
fair, the selling of whiskey on the
grounds and other things which were
not in keeping with good government
The pastors named q. committee 10 SCI
cure legal assistance looking to pros
ecution of ali the violations Of the
law during the last fair and also to
call on directors and stockholders In
the fair to provide against further vio-
Iatious of the law. The resolutions
adopted by the pastors In fun are as
follows:
the Pastors Union of the Birmingham
distinct, that those responsible for
the operation of the recent State Fair
held here permitted grieyous outrage
on this community.
First: BY permitting the open sale
of intoxicating liquors on the fair
grounds;
ducements. in the form of entrance fee,
for the attendance of school children,
alluring gambling devices were al
lowed on the grounds, at which boys
were observed to bet their dimes and
quarters and thus possibly have their
first lesson in gambling;
Third: Although there is law on
the criminal statutes of this State in
tended to prevent organized gambling
on horse races in the form of pool
selling, or book-making, form of
this organized gambling was permit
ted to openly operate, and although
the attention of the officers of the fair
association was called to the same, and
nnGfttva PROMISES were
made to have the same effectively sup
pressed. the assurances and promises
were not carried out.
Resolved further, That we feel as
sured that a large number OF the
stockholders, of the association were
probably unaware that these pernf-
cious features would be permitted. and
we, with confidence, appeal to the
moral sense of the directors and stock
holders against these evils and urge
them to as soon as possible give OFF,
cial and positive assurance to the pub
lie that in future fairs held
under their auspices that these
liquor selling and gambling features
will be, in god faith, rigidly excluded
and suppressed.
Resolved further, That a commit
tee consisting of w. r. Hendrix, A
c. Davidson and ]. W. Stage be APP
pointed and empowered to associate
with them five laymen and procure
funds. and employ attorneys to assist
the authorities in prosecuting these
violations of the law. Also We urge
every member of this union, as well
as all the citizens of this district, te
cooperate with this committee bs
using all their personal influence with
any oficer, director or stockholdel
with whom they came in contact.
Others matters were taken up I'M the
meeting and the discussions were in
teresting.

King William III. of England was
pas-ionately fond of the chase and
made it II point never to be outdOnc in
any leap, however perilouS. \ Mr..
Cherry, who was devoted to the eXiled
family, took advantage of this to plan
the most pardonable design which was
ever formed against kings life. He
regularly joined the royal hounds, put
himself foremost and took the most
desperate leaps in the hope that VIII
liam might break his neck in following
him. One day, however, he accom-
pliShed one so imminently dangerous
that the king when he came to the spot
shook his head and drew back. 1t is
said that Mr.. Cherry ut length broke
his own neck and thereby relieved the
king from further hazard.

SOME ODD LEATHERS.
Prepared From the skins of Various
Aquatic Animals.

Leather is prepared from the hides OF
nearly all aquatic animals, principally
I'll" seal, whale, porpoisc, alligator and
walrus. The use of these hides is al
most as old as man himself, and they
have ever been most eagerly sought
after for the many uses to which they
could be put after being prepared as
leather. At the time OF the Russian
occupation of Alaska they made great
use of walruS hides. Furs were usual
ly wrapped up in these skins, and when
they reached kiachta. China, the great
mart of those days, the skin was sewcd
over chests of tea On arrival at Mos
cow the SOundcst portions We're re
moved, cut up and stamped into kO
pcCkS and Il variety of small change.
This formed the chief currency of Alas
ka for II time. The russians also made
harness OF walrus leather. while the
natives of Alaska used the skin as n
covering for their boats

extremely fine quality of green leather

tn" skin of an ugly fish called til" angel
fish. The sword grips of the German
army are made from shark leather,
which is beautiful in pattern. being
marked with dark diamond shaped fig
urcS This skin comes from North
sea shark called the diamond shark.
Leather manufacturers have tried to
produce Il substitute from animal
hides but in vain. Unlike animal leath-
cr, fish leather is absolutely imperviOuS
to water and never gets soggy from
dampnrSS. Therefore it is ideal for
sword grips, rs, no matter how much
the hand may prrspire, the grip re
mains hard and dry.
Leather is made from the skin OF the
Pacific coast and great lakes sturgeon,
which is exceedingly tough and is used
in making laces for joining leather
