A LOVING TRIBUTE
In Memory of Miss Mary cahalar

A loving friend of the late Mary Cana Ian contributes this in memoriam:
 Never in the history of Birmingham has her people been so closely drawn to- gether by the sacred cord of sympathy as on last Tuesday morning, the occasion of Miss Mary Cahalan's funeral.
 From the heart of the city to it's utter most limits. yes and from beyond they came-Jew and gentle, protestant and Catholic regardless of creed or nation ality they came-to mourn in common their common loss, for all had lost a priceless frind. And the mighty throng mingled their bitter tears of suppressed grief, the solemn organ breathed echoes, soft and low, as if responsive to the sobbing of one great heart crushed be- meath the weight of its own inexpresslble sorrow.
 Pained though we are and bitter the bangs, even yet it is hard, so hard to accept it as fact that she is gone, and her face shut out from among us for ever.
 Recall that face so indelibly stamped upon our memory, and who cannot read therein her leading traits of character, charity sympathy and fixedness of pur- pose. From her eyes beamed the light of charity. she looked on all with charity, from the trusting little child at her knee to the greatest deeds of men, and the smile that encirced her lips. only served to frame the many beautiful words of sympathy and kindly encouragement of fered to the bruised hearts. Then the deeper character lines bespoke with un- mistakable emphasis, her fxedness of purpose, and ever unfailing frmness in the defense of right.
 As a mother, and as a patron of dear old Powell school, l feel so keenly our personal loss. and weep with my little hearts in their bereavement.
 Let me voice the sentiment of all and say, her place in her work and her place in our hearts can never be filled, never. never.
 A LOVING FRIEND AND PATRON.

Railroads and Congress.

The large financial interests behind and under the railroads are becoming recon eiled to prospective Congress action and will probably adjust themselves to new conditions without loss of time and with out serious friction. They put Up a. big fight to protect their properties against what they considered q danger ous onslaught looking to practical con- fiseation in certain directions. but it now appears that their alarm was to some extent groundless. If the proposed legis- lation and the ground swell popular awakening shall result in a square deal for all shippers alike, railroads as we'll as the public may be equally benefited in the long run. There will certainly be a lifting up of and improvement in the standard of business morals. The only people who will be injured will be the inside grating element which has profited by devious methods in railroad management and construction. The coun- try can probably survive the abolition of graft in circles of high finance.

Big Suit On.

The suit of Morris c. Menges against Gen. Fitzgerald for s1.000,000 commission on the Western Maryland deal is attract ing considerable attention in Wall street. This Is the second time Mir. Menges has gone after General Fitzgerald. He got a judgment for the full amount of his claim on the first hearing of the case. but the defendants secured a new trial The original verdict was a great surprise. It was also an eye-opener and a warning to some of the kings of high finance. If Menges succeeds a second time in getting verdict 1t will tend to dis courage a practice only too prevalent in Wall street to "welch" on commis- sions. The street is full of stories of the bad faith of big men in the matter of recognizing the services of brokers. agents and go-betweens.
 Chronic market fighters complain that many commission merchants and brokers take unfair advantage of them in mak- ing up the interest account. They think they ought to be counted in ,on inter- est when their brokers loan the stocks charged against them. They say that in many instances nearly the entire interest charge would be offset if they were given credit on stocks loaned. This sort of talk is most freely indulged in when interest rates are high and the

A Stanford Student Tells or The
Damage There.

Miss Laura Wells, the only
daughter of Manager G. B. Wells
of the Wailuku Sugar Company,
has returned to her home from
Stanford University, and tells a
thrilling story of her experience
during the earthquake of the 18th
of April and the days following, be-
fore she was able to get away from
the ruined University.
Her account of the catastrophe
is as follows:
When the earthquake was upon
us the first thing that | knew was
that I found myself standing up,
with one hand braced against the
wall, struggling frantically to hold
my balance. | was thrown for
ward, sideways, backward. The
house swayed and jerked and twist
ed. 1t felt like a great storm
at sea, and all the noises
with predominence of groaning
and creaking carried out the i'm
preston. There were several Jerks,
racking, sinuous, then an in
slant of trembling lull, when l
thought that it must be over, but
it would recommence. Once as l
lurched forward I caught glimpse
through the window and thought
that we were surely going over.
Many of the bureaus, all bookcases,
etc., were thown down. Books and
vases were hurled all over the floor.
The atmosphere was filled with
dust and powdered plaster. The
quake lasted forty-seven seconds.
The girls in the house were
collected, as were all the students.
One girl, who had lived in Japan
and was accustomedt o earthquakes
was shouting for everyone to get
out of the house before the second
shock. Some of us laughed at her,
but, when in a few minutes it be-
gan again, we wasted no time in
making the porcn. The second
shock was slight.
Our ,astonishment was great
when we saw the ruin around us.
A house stones throw away was
partially collapsed and sunken in.
Next we saw that the steeple of the
Memorial church was gone--leaving
nothing but 1 short round of wooden
superstructure-that overtops the
college rs hcrrible, mournful,
monument.
In a feN minutes everyone was
hurrying to iook at the buildings
and learn whether anyone had been
hurt. All were very much excited
but kept their heads. College men
hurried to dig out the seven buried
and two crushed. Others were tel
ling of their narrow escapes and
the damage done. We thrilled
with the telling how fifty men,
from the hall where portions of
every floor had fallen, were at the

the girls dormitory in less than
ten minutes after the disaster to
help the girls out. We marvelled
at the personal accounts of people
who had been carried down several
floors and remained unhurt. The
word was passed around that classes
would resume work on the morrow
to prevent a panic. We hurried
back and forth to see the damaged
and collapsed buildings. The COL
lege was grand monumental ruin.
All the ornamental buildings were
gone or badly damaged. The low
lying buildings of the original plan,
but slightly damaged, still prove
the existence of the college. A
freakish sight, being worded over
the country, was that of statue
that dove head foremost from q
second story into the pavement.
Buried to its shouldersit remained
intact. AS we looked heavily at
the ruins of the best part of the
college, again and again, we heard
the words repeated, Chow well that
Mrs. Stanford did not live to see
this. 1t would have broken her
heart"
Then came the word by mouth
that San Francisco had received
greater shock, buildings fiat across
the street, and big fire raging.
Rumors from the outside world of
greater disasters came pouring in.
Telegraphic and telephone com.
munication was cut off. The trains
could not get into the city. The
rumor got to San Jose that three
hundred were killed at Stanford.
We could get no word out or re-
ceive word from friends. We were
almost frantic. Many of us haunt
ed the station at Palo Alto. When
ever train came from San Jose
none came from San Francisco, the
passengers would throw up the car
windows and tell all the meagre
news that they had heard. We
would rush up to every automobile.
Reports became worse, "The whole
city is doomed" "Ruffians' are
headed this way" "The insane
from the Asylum are running
free" Martial law was declared
around the University, and every
thing was patrolled.
With all'this, Lick Observatory
kept flashing messages throughout
the day, as, Expect an earthquake
at eleven. Perhaps as bad" Slight
shocks came at the time specified
These kept up for several days.
We were ordered to keep out of the
houses as much as possible. We
slept on the lawns and porches.
Late that evening we heard the
report (false) that a fire in the
Westt IN Addition was rushing to-
ward the fires from downtown. We
could see the flame colored sky
over San Francisco, and heard the
blasting of their buildings going on
all night.
This was the first day. The Sec
ond was not much better. The first
letters came through Saturday.
The tenseness subsidized to some
degree, college was dismissed, and
everyone prepared to leave. Sat-
urday we left for Oakland. / had
to stand the whole way, change
cars twice and took over four
hours to reach our destination.

ocre knowledge of the mesozoic or

law of modification is neither continu.

fore, according TO the different species
and animal types, there may be varia-
tion with revolutionary rapidity of
transformation or extinction or there
may be almost complete immobility.
George Darwin is sure that the mere
intervention Of time can in no sense
be the satisfactory explanation of the
profound notifications which have oc

it may be true that in many cases
nature works slowly and with con.
tinuity, there is no reason TO exclude
the fact that she may at times act
suddenly and sadically. Although GER.
tain causes may work through slowly
modifying conditions. the final results
Of these canses may be sudden, as
when slow increase in temperature
brings about an explosion.
The fact Of the variation of animal
species in space and time is as clear
as the light Of the sun, but we must
not forget that the causes which regu-

not suffice 10 produce all Of the varia.
