FLOOD IS FAVORED.
Martin Thinks Him the Proper Man for
 Chairmanship.

ashington, Oct. 2l.-tSpecial )- Senator Thomas $. Martin ot Virginia who is in Washington today expressed himself as highly pleased at the re- ccption by Democrats of the name or representative Flood for the chair .n,anshipa of the Democratic congress sional committee.
 Flood Is one,sof the most sagacfous political managers l have ever known, ae said, and would make an ideal chairman of the congressional commit tee. He has the habit of making good in any position he takes l am sure that no man could do more as chair man than Flood. No more fit man can .e found for the place. and l have d apundant opportunities to know his qualified tions
 Speaking of. rate legislation, Sena- tor Martin said: T believe and hope that there will be wise rate legisla- tions. at the. next session of con- eress. but it will be only with the aid of the Democrats. The Repubii- cans are so badly divided on the ques- tion that they cannot pass ballot without Democrat votes and they will get them I think the Democrats will unite in favor of rate leg islation."

 MT. Conner was presented to his court house audience by Major G. A. Joyner, a cotton mill man and a member Of the legislature. He alluded to the speaker of the day as a great thinker, one who would speak on a subject to which he had given great thought. And that question was one which vitally anected all the lines of business of Alabama. In closing Major Joyner quoted the re- mark of President Roosevelt that For their own self protection. the railroads should be put under government rate supervision
 Mir. Conner was given close attention but he did not at any time arouse en- thusiasm in his audience. Only three times was there applause and 1t was not of an earnest sort
 Mir. Conner has improved in public sLeaking since he first inaugurated his crusade against the railroads. but he is not to be considered an orator. nor does he arouse enthusiasm among his hearers. even among his own support CTS. He Is an earnest speaker He gives emphasis to the strong points of his address by closing his thin lips in one straight line. looking intently at his audience. He then opens his mouth and misses his sentence through ms clenched teeth
 His favorite gesture Is throwing out both hands at the full length of his arms and then bringing them sharply to his side.
 Having been told of the meeting of the cotton growers. expected to be held MT. Conner felt called upon to talk upon the work of the Association.

PLAN TO EXCHANGE BABIES
Clearing House In Europe by Which
Different Nationalities Are
to Be Traded.

One of the curious things run across in
Europe is the scheme of Frenchman
named Michael Breal, preached as long
ago as 1886, and which is being again
taken up.
1t consists of a wholesale exchange,
swapping of children from one family
to another, says a recent report.
Here is a Partisan father in modest es-
tate, with son. This man has an ambi-
ton that his child shall have a thorough
knowledge of German. The proper
thing would be to place the child in some
German family for awhile BIT the diff
,ulty for the father is to discover Just
the right sort of family-one who would
receive the child, one that he could trust
with the child, and, above all, one who
had child to swap. The Partisan father
would be spending no extra money in
housing the German child and teaching
1t French, while his own was eating at a
German table. Meanwhile two nations
were understanding each other better.
1t was a splendid scheme, if only 1t could
be carried out.
What was needed was baby broker,
as 1t were, an exchange clearing
house for children, an agency to keep
tab of families willing to swap children
and to engineer the swap. A man named
Toni Matthew saw the chance, and i'm
proved it during the vacation period last
year. He had prejudices to overcome.
After deal of letter writing he won the
indispensable, not to say inevitable.
sanction of college professors Of great
authors, prominent lawyers and mem
bers of parliament He even succeede d
in placing an order of five children on
trial. He devoted whole year to
booming the enterprise. And 1t was
heart-breaking work. He would win the
approval of a lot of English or German
or Scandinavian families. only to find
in his own land no readiness of trade.
And yet, in spite of everything. he has
succeeded in a measure. The scheme Is
working and Mr.. Matthew has decided
to found a society and push the idea for
all It is worth
This society is to be known by the
solemn title of international Fxchapee
for Children in the Study of Foreign
Languages and Customs" For honorary
president it is to have NJ. D'Fstourr les
De Constant; for acting PRESIDENT Pierre

manager, with the backing Of deputies

In the case of girls, are easily looked

FRUITFULNESS OF FADS.
Outdoor Sports and Pastimes That
Benefit Both the Mind
and Body.

To the eye of one scoffer the ancient
sport Of golf Is chasing a quinine pill
around a ten-acre lot" Another is like
the small boy who watched gray
haired man making a bad mess of put
ting on a grcen which lay in little hol-
low, exposed to all the heat of sum-
mer sun, and then asked the red-faced
and perspiring victim of bad aim and
worse judgment of force: Mister. do
you get paid for doing that?" Yet golf
gives new health and life to many man
at the time of life when such open-air
exercise and such novel contact with
mother earth mean more than youth
can understand, says the Cleveland
Leader.
So to other eyes angling Is inspired
idiocy. Does 1t not lead sane and able
bodied men to stand or sit for hours
catching nothing, hoping against hope
that bites will come from the water in
stead of from creepi and flying things?
1t seems to many outside the charmed
circle Of the angle, to wrest geometry a
triile silly to do nothing. hour after hour.
but watch and wait, and agitate string
at the end of a pole. Yet how immeas-
urable the joy and tonic of fishing to
those who love to be lured away into the
enchanted wilds where nature hides her
secrets of refreshment and inspiration
for the sons Of men.
1t is the same with unnumbered fads.
The true test is not from without Per.
sonal experience is what counts. The
only reliable evidence is given by the
faddists. They know what fads mean.
1t Is question Of inward light The
outsider has no right to be dogmatic. He
simply cannot get the point of view. He
has a blind side turned that way. He
feels the essence of his own fads but
others like unto them might as well be in
another planet, for all they know Of their
meaning. Fads are self-justified. They
cannot be brought into court and tried
like law-breakers. Without the fads
and the faddists the world would lack
half the life and zest of the human COM
