 About two years ago MT Jansson was informed that his son was killed on train at Bay St Louis, summer re sort on the Gulf Coast between Mooile and New Orleans. The reports were SO convincing that the parents of the youth never doubted that their son had been killed.
 The parents still confidently believed that their eldest born had passed away, until about two months ago when Mrs Janson met friend. well-known Wo- man from Bay St. Louis, who assured her that the young man killed at the summer resort was not her son. Light began to dawn and the grieved parents saw a thread of hope.
 Had 1t not been for Harry Dixon, a we'll known young man of this city, who was a playmate Of Oscar Jansson, it is likely that the prodigai son would not have returned to his home yester- day. Dixon had been reared with Jans- son and he was not mistaken in his Identification of him on a recent trip

MONTGOMERY'S TROPICAL SON
 RETURNS TO ARMS OF HIS PARENTS

which he took to New Orleans. Jans- son had changed his name to that o1 Oscar Hancock and Jansson at first de- nied any knowledge of Montgomery Dixon insisted that he knew he was his playmate and then Jansson told the story of his life since he had left Montgomery. He admitted that he was the son of Mir. and Mrs. Jansson of Montgomery, aud Ae intimated that he would return to his home upon the proper persuasion.
 MT. Dixon returned to Montgomery last Monday and lost no time in call ing at the residence of the parents and informing them that their son was alive and prospecting in New Orleans Steps were, taken by MT. Jansson to have his son come to his home and the devoted father left Montgomery on the next train for New Orleans where he found the youth early the next morn ing at work at large coffee house. They boarded a train at New Orleans Tuesday night and reached here y4s- terdsy morning.
 It develops that Oscar Jansson has led a successful career since he went away from Montgomery. Soon after reaching New Orleans he accepted a position with the coffee house and was employed by the firm to the present time. He was earning a good salary anu ndu BFOWn NO HldlAEtNNs yOohs man of excellent habits. During his stay iR New Orleans he had been prac- ticAlly adopted as a son by the propri- etor of the coffee house and his wife. Young Jansson had been confirmed to the Catholic faith, the creed of his godfather and godmother.
 The young man says that he left Montgomery with the full intention of going to the "old country" to visit Swe- den, the land of his fathers nativity He had heard his father so frequently allude to the beauty and righteousness of the Scandinavian peninsula that he had decided to go there, partly to seek fortune and partly for education. With his mind thus framed he says he changed his name so that he could gc out into the world, learn the lessons it taught and later return to his par eats. However. on reaching New Or leans he obtained employment and there it was that he remained
 Since Oscar Jansson has been away from Montgomery his parents have hat the further trouble of losing two young CT children. leaving them now two lit' tie girls and the young man, their old est child.
 During the absence of the son. thu
 well known shoemaker has changed hi; nlace of business from No. Churct Street to 2S Dexter Avenue Had thu son returned to Montgomery alone is likely that he would have had sNm' difIculty in locating his parents.
 oscar Jansson says he will remain in Montgomery if he can secure DO sition.
 Our son has risen from the dead, sad Mrs. Jansson yesterday. We ar' grateful that he is ours for many year; to come. The grey hairs caused bS the grief is counterbalanced by the hap pness we now have"

The court Would not have the right to determine wheth- CT the rate was sufficient to pay oivi. dends On watsred stock pr noI could not issue an injunction suspend tnx the rate except on showing oy the railroads, in advance, that the rate, if put into effect, would cause airec' loss.
 PasssEe ef Less Amendment Assured. This Is the one court of review Amendment of which President RooSe- velt has approved. He is quite willing, however. to have added to 1t what Is known as the overman amendment which provides that no in1unction ol interlocutory order shall De granted without five days notice to the oppos. ing parties. nor until the petition and answer are filed and the hearing there on 10 held
 The Long amendment, without the Overman addition. will almost certainly be passed by the Senate from present appearances. What the railroad sena- tors now are concentrating their at- tention upon is to give the circuit courts the right to inquire, not only whether the rate fixed by the com mission affected the constitutionai right of the railroad bill, but whether 1t affected any legal rights of the
  quite different thing.
 If the railroad senators have theif way, and can persuade the President to accept their proposition as com promise, the Long amendment, m us concluding paragraph, will read Jur- isdiction is hereby conferred on the circuit courts of the United states 70 hear and determine in any such suit. whether the order complained or was beyond the authority of the coninis- sion or in violation of the rights ot carriers secured by the constitution, or by the laws of the United states. Then, of course. would follow the Over-
 man amendment
 Extremes Reached In 70 Amendments.
 Out of all these seventy odd amena- ments now before the Senate, the only ones of surpassing interest are those of Long, Overman and Knox, because they contain In themselves the germ of the real fight between the adminis- tration and the railroads.
 Senator Knox has provided for the broadest kind of court review and Sen- ator Long for the narrowest. Between the two extremes 1t almost surely will agree on some basis of compromise and that compromise will be accepted D. the House without hesitation, if it ia agreeable to the President. If the Sen- ate takes the bit in its teeth and runs away from everybody there will be a long fight in the conference committee.
 Otherwise, the new law might ba ready for the statute books by Decora- ton day.

LIFE LIKE PICTURE
Of General Robert B Lee From Pho-

Of General Robert E Lee From Pho
 tOErapA Taken In Richmond.
 The Advertiser is In receipt Of speaking likeness of General Robert E. Lee. It is undoubtedly as perfect as work of the kind can be made. It Is a photo engraving portrait of about ree-quarters life size. made by the John A. Lowell Bank Note Company, ot Boston, Mass. It is one of series of portraits of great men of our country, and the artist will never make bet ter.
 By a correct inspiration MT Lowell, when he determined to make picture of General Lee, selected for the model a photograph taken of General Lee al No. TOT East Franklin street. Richmond now the Virginia Historical Society," a few days after his return from Appo- mattox MT. Lowell had great trouble In finding this particular picture. and finally located It in Philadelphia. He was encouraged in his work by General Fitzhugh Lee, who the very day he left Boston and was stricken down on his train with what proved to be his death stroke, promised MT. Lowell that he would return to Boston in two weeks and see the final design they were at work upon.
 The great labor of etching this por- trait has been crowned with triumph ant success. It is really an inspiration to see the picture. and 1t would be for the promotion of all that is noble in man to have such portrait of such a man in every family in the land.

No Possession of 81 Country More
Loyalty Loved and Revered.
There is no possession Of a country
which is more deeply revered, more
consistently loved or more loyalty sup
ported than its national flag In our
country is this especially true, for in
that one emblem are embodied all the
principles which our fOrefa5 hers up
held, all the benefits of a century and
a quarter of enlightened progress and
all the hope and assurance of Il promis-
ing future.
The stripes of alternate red and white
proclaim the original union of thirteen
states to maintain the Declaration Of
Independence. It's stars, white on a
field of blue proclaim that union of
states constituting our national cOnstel-
lation which receives a new star with
every state. Thus the stars and stripes
signify union and 'in union there is
strength"
The very cOlOrs have a significance.
White stands for purity, red for valOr
and blue for justice, together forming a
combination which it is our inherited
privilege to honor and uphold
1t Is not the flag of a king or an en-
peror or president. 1t is the flag of
the people, brought into being by their
will defended when necessary by their
patriotism and to which they turn
for protection in time of danger. No
matter into what parties our people
may be divided, due to political beliefs
and leanings, they all stand united
under one flag. 1t is the emblem of
unity, safety and faith-St Nicholas
