Aau&0hAM SCWACss
 More than 1,5O0 persons visited the exhibition car of the Grand Trunk Rail way System which, under the charge of R. McC. Smith, of Detroit, was open for inspection yesterday at the Union Railway Station. From early in the morning, until closing hour at o'clock last evening, people of Montgomery flocked to the car. and examined the collection of photographs of northern forest and lake scenery which were on exhibition.
 Of the three hundred and more large photographs which ornamented the walls of the car, all were from scenes in Canada and Northern Michigan. along the lines of the Grand Trunk Railway, many of which were familiar to Montgomerians who have spent sum mers in those regions In the North.
 MT Smith arrived in his special car at the Union Depot Sunday afternoon. from Mobile. and as soon as the car was switched on the side track, he pre- pared to receive visitors. Although only slight notice had been taken or his coming. over 800 visited him there, and examined the photographs with which the walls of the care are cov- cred.
 Yesterday morning. the car was thrown open at o'clock In the morn ing, and soon afterward MT. Smith was deluged with the people who had come .o see the collection. A constant stream of callers kept coming through the day.
 The car In which the exhibit Is con tained is built specially for the pur- pose. On the interior. the walls are covered with splendid specimens of the photographers art, depicting the for ests, streams. resorts and lakes of the Canadian wilderness. A number of life- size representations of the fish to be caught in Northern waters were also on exhibition, one set representing the brook trout. on the rise. on the hook, and when finally captured. Among the photographs were some from the re- gions about Lake Michigan. The west ern shores of Lake Huron. Mackinaw, Quebec. the 50.0n0 Islands of Georgian Bay. and the wilds of the Province of Ottawa.
 An unusual feature was to be noticed on the exterior of the car. All the win dow panes contained reproductions Of photographs. taken from Canadian scenes.
 The car is now on its way north. af- ter q trip extending through the South ern States. Previous to coming to Montgomery. 1t visited number of the Gulf ports, and other cities south of Montgomery.
 R. McC. Smith. who is Southern Pas senger Agent for the Grand Trunk Sys- tenn, has his headquarters in Detroit, but is we'll known among Alabamians, especially those in Montgomery. He was one of the party which acted as hosts to the members of the Alabama Press Association. which took trip to Canada three year ago, Yesterday a number of the members of that party called and renewed his acquaintance with him.
 Mr. Smith leaves on his way North at o'clock this morning, his first scheduled stop being Birmingham, at which place he will hold his car for an exhibition of the photographs, over to- day and tomorrow.

Committee Proposed for Investigation
 of Isle of Pines.
 Washington, March 26.-(Special)- Senator Morgan expects to press viz orously his resolution on the appoint ment of a committee of seven Senators to investigate the Isle of Pines ques- tion. as he thinks 1t the proper course to pursue, especially as so many people from this country have settled on the island an dinvested their money in the firm belief that it was ceded to the United States in the treaty with spain
 The Republican members of the For eign Relations Committee, however, are almost unanimously in the belief that the island belongs to Cuba, but they may have trouble getting through Legislation to that effect A great many Southern people are now on the Isle of Pine, and many more Will go there. 1t is claimed.

A TROUBLE MAKER.
Coffee Poison Breeds Variety of Ills.

A California woman who didn't know for twenty years what kept her Ill, writes to tell how she won back health by quitting coffee:
 q am 54 years old" she says, have used coffee all my life and for 20 years suffered from indigestion and Insomnia. Life was a burden and drag to me all inc time. and about once a year my ail- ments got such hold upon me that was regulary sick in bed for several weeks each time.
 T was reluctant to conclude that coffee was the cause of my trouble, but I am thankful that l found out the truth.
 Then determined to use Postum Food Coffee excIusively--for a week at frst-for I doubted my ability to do without the old kind of coffee for any length of time made the Postum care fully, as directed, and before the week expired had my reward in a percepti- ble increase in strength and spirits.
 Seeing the good that my short ex- pertinent had accomplished resolved to continue the use of Postum Food-Cot- fee, cutting out the old kind of coffee entirely. This I did for nine months, finding. daily, increased cause for grat- ification at my steadily improving health. My indigestion gradually left me. my sleep returned. I gained 26 pounds in weight, my color changed from sallow to a fresh, rosy hue and life became a blessing.
 ''Then I thought I would try the old kind of coffee again, and did SO for a few weeks The punishment for de- serting my good friend. Postum, was n return of my old troubles.
 That taught me wisdom. and I am now and shall be all my life hereafter using Postum Food Coffee exclusively and enjoying the benefits 1t brings me-, Name given by Postum Co. Bat tie Creek, Mich

A telephone inspector was speaking
of the telephone and some Of its royal
and Imperial users.
1.-THE emperor of Germany" he said,
lis a great user of the phone. A pc
culiar etiquette must be observed in
talking to him over the wire. In the
first place, the emperor never gives his
name. After calling man up, he
doesn't begin with: Hello. This is
Billr or anything of that sort. He be-
gins with the imperial phrase, I COM
mand that
"All the officials of Germany know
that I command that numbered over
the phone means the kaiser is talking
to them. When the emperor is through
his conversation he doesn't say Good
by or That's ALL He hangs up the re-
ceivef and stalks away. The result of
that custom is that the official at the
other end of the wire, no matter how
lofty he may be, has to stand with the
receiver at his ear for five or six min
utes longer, not sure whether the en-
peror has finished or whether he is
thinking up something further to say"

THE LAWYER.
koionel Lewis Gives Him Only Eight
xI.lo.a aIu..o Kaar. "a pm cfi Ice.

| toionel Lewis Gives Him Only Eight
Hundred More Years to Practice.
Colonel James Hamilton Lewis, cor
poration counsel of Chicago, politician,
former congressman, wit and after
dinner speaker, says:
'In 800 years-yes, before that period
has elapsed-the lawyer will be With
out profession.
1.-THE law is in the midst of great
changes" he said to Chicago Post
writer Il believe that in fifty years
the evolution will have progressed so
far that we will have tribunal some
thing like those of ancient Greece,
where any man, whether he be lawyer
or not, can go and present his case.
'1The lawyer, except as an advocate,
Is disappearing from the world. The
necessity for him is waning. Men are
learning to get together and settle their
business matters or their troubles with
out him.
ssrhere was time when the law Of
fered a man preferment, honors, social
entree and everything to be desired.
Not so today. The lawyer is looked
upon as parasite, feeding on the body
polite. On every hand we see lawyers
turning away from the practice of their
profession and getting into channels OF
life offering them better returns for
their abilities.
81 say without hesitation that the law
yer is the lowest paid worker In any
class of endeavor to be cited, consider
ing what he puts into his work. Take
the corporation lawyer getting perhaps
So, 500 or $4,000 year. He makes 1t
possible for his employers to accumu-
late millions. Take the lawyer who de-
tends the corporation damage suit.
What does he get for the lifeblood he
puts into his fight?
Take the criminal lawyer. He gives
his very flesh to the cause. He saves
life and liberty, and in return what
does he get but a paltry sum?
II repeat that the world is learning
to get along without lawyers. You ask
me if it is not true that the colleges are
turning out more lawyers today than
ever before and that the number of
lawyers in proportion to the population
is increasing. am not prepared to say
that such is the fact My opinions have
been decried by the law schools that
are turning out lawyers to starve.
'We do not have to go far back to
see what an evolution already has
taken place in the legal calling. Now
1t is not learning that takes man to
the front; it is not depth of wisdom,
years of study or conscientious work.
What is 1t? Paper cap explosions
noise!
mo longer is it necessary for man
to be a lawyer to go to congress; bust
ness men go there. The places once
considered as belonging only to the
lawyer are going to men in other wi.l.is
Of life. The lawyer ON every had Is
being crowded out. The people are be-
coming intelligent enough to set along
without him as an intermediary"
