MRS. CUNNINGHAM
 LECTURES ON WAGNER.

Mrs. Robert Cunningham, who is giving a series of Wagnerian lectures in Atlanta is dellghting large audiences, her charm and grace, force and brilliancy appeal ing to every one who has had the pleas ure of attending the lectures which are given under the auspices of the Woman's club, an organization of Atlanta's most representatives women.
 The Constitution in reference to Mrs. Cunningham's lecture course, says:
 To listen to Mrs. Cunninghams talk on the Poetry of Wagner" given at the we.hans club on Monday. last. was to experience a sense of complete satis- faction. The subject was handled with such perfect skill ana rare discrimina- tion that in brief afternoon the au- dience was made to grasp the splendid Wagnerian concept, the titantic achieve ment of the great master of so many arts, to thrill with his enthusiasm and to drink from the source of his inspiration. Speaking entirely without notes, Mrs. Cunningham seemed tie very embodiment and natural expression of the lofty and beautiful iedeas she so eloquently DOT trayed. There was an exquisite and un- usual harmony between the spirit of the thoughts and the woman who voiced them that could not fail to impress all who had the privilege of hearing this inter- esting address,

A line-and the years are spanned in a
 breath; And the petticoat falls to the dusty
 floor, And the grandaunt. long asleep in death, Floats into my dreams, a girl once
 more. Arstocrat, to her finger tips Clad in the gown with its riot of bloom. Her grave sweet eyes and her tender The bravest things in the shadowy room Each flower is bright in the rich bro-
 cade
 Nor rent. nor stain in the priceless Like benison. lights the fresh, fair
 face; And tucked in her breast IS a yellow
 glove,
 Too large for any but cavalier. But small enough for token of love That love itself hath hushed to hear. Back to the past the vision pales; And denser the shadows by contrast
 grow But l sit by the chest with it's cobweb
 veils i And dream of this Margaret of long
 ago. For a glove has dropped from the cor
 sage gay But never it's mate; and it tells me
 all- And l know why she put the dress away She wore that night at the governor 8
 ball.

OpeIika Negro Suffrage.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 l was the only colored man in Alabama that came out in the open in favor of the new constitution of alabama and fla voring a qualified electorate For this I was very severely criticized by the bulk of my own people, and by certain white republicans l was special object of attack by the suffrage league of Alabama and men high in the councils of the re- publican party in the north think very strange of my course. still favor a quali- fled suffrage and believe yet that my peo- pie will come to my way of thinking on this subject I believe further that as time moves on the present constitution will be administered justly
 I think. however. as the dominant peo- pie in the state have seen fit to make an educational qualification for the cleo tor that the state should furnish every reasonable facility for the children of the state to qualify themselves to be electors when they arrive at the proper age. It would be. extremely unjust to my people to fix qualification and then deny our children the privileges of a common school education. I believe it the very best thing after all for the whole people of the state that my race be furnished op- portunities for common school education. I beg of the school authorities of the com mon schools to deal justly with the school funds and to furnish good common school in every precinct or school district in the state where the colored chil- dren can obtain common school educa- tion Yours truly.

JANITOR KILLS HIMSELF.
Commits Suicide While Services Were
 Going on in Church.

St. Louis, April 17.-Capt. James A. Rl- der, 66 years old, for four years the jan itor of the St. James Memorial Episcopal church, committed suicide by shoot ing himself in a room adjoining the au- ditorium, where the rector of the church was conducting devotional services. The sound of the shot was plainly heard by the congregation, but there was no ex- ctement. One of the vestrymen inves- tigated and reported to Dr. Duckworth, who announced from the pulpit brief statement of what had occurred. He re- quested that the congregation leave the church at once
 Very little is known of Captain Ri der's antecedents. It is said he was born in Liverpool. England, and that he was q captain in the British merchant marine service.

THIS MORNINGS GOSSIP

or the many exquisite poetic gems that Margaret O.Brlen-Davis revealed her rarely appreeiative mind and her dell cate gift of expression-a number or her poems being truly classics. when Graiiu Aunt Danced with LaFayette' has been so often reproduced since the author death as to give it the real permahey of classic. Newspapers both north ana In the south have continued to reproduce this single little poem that appeals with so delicate a touch to those appreciatve of sentiment. and which paints with the softness of a pastel the romance the dreams, one gay and dream-nlght or the long ago.
 The Montgomery Advertiser of Sunday reproduces the verse with the following comment:
 The beautiful poem which heads this department was written by Mrs. Mar garet o'Brien Davis, year or two be- fore the gifted young Alabama author 5 death The Grand Aunt was Mrs. James Newman of Montgomery, great grand aunt of Mrs. Davis Mrs Davis was one of the most brilliant women Alabama has ever produced and Montgomery was her home during her childhood.

A Better Salesman PAYS Better.

Only few days ago prominent mer'
chant was approached on the street with
questions involving the scientific train
ing Of his statesmen. The clever dealer
replied that he did not consider it wise
for him 10 educate his men, for as soon
as they became better salesmen they
would leave his employ for a position
with some other firm in a larger city.
Before the dealer realized that he had
ever reached himself, he was told mot
if you do as VII by your men as Others
do by theirs" Affronted by the cutting
but truthful remark, the merchant says,
That's my business"
So il is, Mr.. Merchant, and it's only by
chance that the adman heard OF this
matter. But it is certain, nevertheless,
tha tthe better men and women, both
morally and mentally, you help your
employees to be the better and easier
they are to keep. For good men are usu-
ally well paid and remunerative posi-
tions, all other things being equal, are
not thrown up haphazzard. Seventy
FIVE dollar clerks may be getting all they
are worth, nor are they always getting
an incentive from you to make them
selves selves worth more to you, while |
sl50-men soon may out grow their sal
AIRY and deserve more, being worth more.
Whiskey is stimulent in many sick
eases, while few voluntary dollars may
prove a stimulent to many a clerk.

A Press Agents Duty.

The leading show firms, such as Bar

known theatrical troups engage the ser
vices of capable newspaper adrertis,
ing man to serve out the dope" whether
paid for or free, TO the papers and other
media. That they do not rely upon the
services of most any man in the company
who can give little spiel, termed adj
vertising, in writing. shows their APP
probation of the value of advertising
space. An ad-man knows how much he
can and ought TO get for nothing, while
he also knows the exact value of space,
when it has to be paid for. Thus we
find some of the cleverest ad.men on the
boards, or rather their wark on the bill
boards, etc.
That reminds me OF the fact that one
or two of the principal circus establish.
ments have decided to practically abol
ish billboard publicity and lay more
stress on their newspaper advertising
They figure that when they only snow in
