The London Lancet insists that there is great" deal of nonsense uttered written and printed about the evils of cigarette smoking. It's contention is that cigarettes made of good tobacco and clean paper are not of themselves hurtful to adult smokers. The harm he says. lies in those who smoke It is hurtful to boys and immature youths to smoke them at all, and 1t Is hurtful to men who smoke too much. All this i sto the point. and if The Lancet is en- tirely correct 1t is plain that children should not smoke cigarettes and tha, growp-up people should not smoke to excess. which many of them undoubt- edly do.

 City Editor Bruce Kennedy of The Advertiser IS among the few to disturb Press Association of having tho speech es made by the proprietors instead of the men who do the work. Some years ago Richard F. Johnston. now inanag- broke oyer the banks and did some talking, but as a rule 1t is the men who pay the salaries rather than the men who receive them on the Press is therefore. interesting, SIS 1t may mean the establishment of a new order It seems sensible. too, for who can know moro of the daily life of a news paper than the men who sit up to un- seeming hours of the night to make It. And Kennedy Is oneAof the most faith ful of the lot. Froih the key of the telegraph instrument he. drifted into cry publication he ever tied up with q better paper for his services. He is not always tEe happy. fellow he might be. and sometimes takes life with q little more of the so1nber coloring than he should, but he knows news, and when he gets 1t fin hand. what do with 1t. No man in the Alabama press is better qualified, 1t is said by men who are paper than Kennedy. All this makes a talk from hiFn to Alabama editors or editors of any other State, valuable text for the fellows who want to ao- quire the art. Kennedy is an admirer of the Western style of journalism and thinks The Atlanta Georgian great paper. He wrote John Temple Graves that he thoughtgso, and that gentleman printed the letter In double column border-llne type on the editorial page. The letter was Kennedy-like, good styte and good English and to the point. Kennedy has a wife and three bahies and loves Montgomery. or ha might get away one of these days.

A sHAMEruL VERDICT.

Something has been said heretofore about the case of B4ier who was put to death by members of the House smiths Union in New York and whose eases were before a coroner's jury for investigation. As was to be expected the jury brought in a verdict of ''acci- dental. death" and the accused men were discharged. This evokes the fol- lowing plain language from The New York Times:
 Through. their own. defiant perjuries and the inherent aslninity of coroner's s inquest procedure the members of the sam a,a Parks gang 99 Hossssitns ,s srs, got guilt of the murder of Butler on the Plaza Hotel building. Some of them swore that they saw Butler slide down he was % %ssssuited. Others swors that they saw him fall between the floor beams. one or more blanks falling with nm. None saw nm assayite,d;; s,;. ,I more calmly testifed that although they saw him lying helpless just after his fall they did not go near him--they just

These four were also iden- tiied by Q'Toole. who was beaten but not quite killed. But after hearing the death was caused by an accidental fall" Coroner Acritelli rendered his verdict in a public proclamation before the inquest began, finding that the Fuller Company had put the special po- licemen on the building to provoke the Housesmiths to violence.
 There seems to be not a shadow of doubt that Butler was murdered. and fortunately for the cause of justice and deeency the Coroner's inquest was not the end of it. The four murderers were arrested as soon as the farce ended and have since been indicted by the grand jury They will be tried for murder and 1t remains to be seen whether they can escape through per- Jured testimony. If they do it will be a good time for justice to hide her head In shame.

Since the great catastrophe at San Erancisco there has been much discuss sion over the best plans for future buildings there. What is wanted is a building that will, az far as human skin can make 1t so. be proof against both earthquakes and fires. and the ccuciusioa has been reached that 8 frame of steel encased in a covering of concrete is the nearest approach to perfection of anything known. Of this The New York Commercial says;
 Reference has already been made In these columns to the report Of the Ger man engineers who have been making an inspection of San Francisco This report strongly indoFses this new con- etfuction As the especially feasible and weIl-adapted one for meeting earth quake contingencies in San Francisco and the threat of fires likely to follow seismic destruction. Against the guaw- ing tooth of time and the dIstortlng power of flames concrete has an ad- vantage uneauaiied among the metals. If, however, steel frames can be used to give form and stability, with ecOn- Ogny of space, and concrete can be made to protect the steel framework Indeh nttely, we arrive at construction promising remarkable permanence and capable of artistic manipulation.

ritual of the order was used, and Rev

preached the sermon.
The sermon was prefaced by few
remarks concerning the relation of the
Templars to the Christian religion, af.
ter which the text, / Cor. 10 IA, was
discussed. The church was crowded
to the doors with interested spectators
and worshippers. The choir deserve
special mention for excellent music.

Both services at the Baptist church
last Sunday were well attended. The

every Christian he proceeded to tell
how thro' Christ we obtain the victory
over sins, self, tribulations, death and

The keynote Of the springtime season
is victory, the keynote Of our religion
is victory and this triumph comes thro'
Jesus Christ by whom shall be minis
