6 HE subscriptions for a monument k0 to Father Ryan at 4dobsle thus
 far show a total of only sl27.S7. There Is something wrong here. Surely a movement to honor a name so worthy deserves a more cordial response, not only from the people of Mobile, but from every one who has admired the beauty of Father Ryan's poems. It is very pret- ty to say that the stirring stanzas he left behind form a monument more lasting than marble or bronze, but when popu- lar subscription to pay tribute to the poet of the COnfederacy elcits so little en- thusiasm it is time to inquire whether the south thinks so much of her gifted singer after all. The list has been open long enough to have reached most sub stantial proportions.
 The custom of giving a title to every southern man who will stand for if" has been often remarked upon and has created much amusement in the east. The southern colonel is, of course pro- verbal. but there are hosts of other per sons bearing military titles in the south without the slightest right thereto. Let prominent citizen grow somewhat ma ture in his years and before he is aware of the new honor thrust upon him he has become a colonel, major or at least a captain. The title captain is quite as popular in the south as "colonel," although eastern people seem to think otherwise. Every policeman is captain when you want to make him a friend; firemen, conductors, janitors, street cleaners, bill posters, porters and nearly everybody in the public eye is hailed as cap or captain according to how well you know them, while old gentlemen with canes are colonels, ajors anl also cap tains. The military atmosphere is quite pronounced.
 The Lima, Ohio man who consistently and vocferously assei ss that the world is coming to an end in March is caus- ing talk. The gentleman is not at all original in his predictions. Such talk has been heard before. Perhaps the Ohio prophet merely scents the coming of spring and is too excited over the joy full event to get hs bearings. Talking about spring is enough to make the most evenly balanced temperament go off at tangent after the way our thermome- ters have been capering.
 1t is very unfortunate for some of us that men will not be judged in the here after according to the testimony writ upon their tombstones.

begins to return at once. A few days
treatment will bring relief, and in
three or four weeks, according to the

accomplished.

says: "Hyomei is truly wonderful
have used it but short time and

My hearing is improving rapidly, and
/ had no idea I would improve sc
rapidly in so short time. My
breath which was so offensive to my
self and others, has lost its bad odol

money with catarrh specialists anC
can truly say that six months of theil
treatment is not equal to one month
of Hyomei."
Feisler & McNiece are selling
Hyomei upon the unusual plan oil
agreeing to return the money if the
medicine does not cure.
A complete outfit costs only $1.0(
and consists of an inhaler that car
be carried in the vest pocket, medi-
cine dropper and bottle of Hyomei
The inhaler will last lifetime and
there is enough Hyomei for several
weeks treatment. Additional bottles
of Hyomei can be procured for sc
cents. Compare this small expense
with the fees charged by specialists
and then remember that if Hyomei
does not cure Feisler & McNiece will
return your money.

Molybdenite Found in Idaho County.

l WoiyOocmtc rOuno III lodno OO1nty.
 A discovery of importance is report
 ed from Idaho county, Idaho. This is
 of great body of moly bdenite of a
 value so great as to stagger the imagi.
 nation. The metal is worth 5,5OO$ per
 ton and in the deposit discovered in
 the Gem state, the second in the Unit. ed States, there is said to be hundr red 8 of tons. The Idaho County Free Press ! tells the story of the discovery az fol. lows:
 William Bonner, Ira McGary and l.. J. Phelan have made the richest dis covery of precious metal ever found in the state. Last May, on the south fork of the Salmon river, near Frank Smiths ranch, and about 14 miles from Warren, they unearthed metal that is known as moly bdenite, or sulphide of moly bdenum. The value of the pe- culiar metal, as secured from the gov ernment prices on precious metals is 2.75S per pound, or 5,5OOS per ton. The discoverers believe they have many hundred tons in very close distance from the surface; they have ledge 35 feet wide and have traced it distance of 7,500 feet along the side of a steep hill where the discovery was first made. For 40 years the ledge has been ex. posed and trampled over by pros pec- tors, who never for moment dreamed of it's value. The principal use of the ID metal is as an alloy in the manufacture of gun metal, and this, with one other mine, are the only wo finds ever To cated in the United St tes, which, owing to the scarcity, makes the value so exceedingly high.
 The contact in which moly bdenum is found is known as dyrite and graph ite, and contains large per cent of brassy looking mineral osition, carrying pyrite and marcasite, known as snlphides of iron. making the dis covery smelling proposition of such a nature that no difficulty will be en. countered in the extraction of the mineral. The moly bdenum is very soft and can be easily scraped off with the finger nail, which fact, owing to the large body of ore, will make it an exceedingly easy property to work.
