Stevenson's life in Samoa Is, In some
ways, the most interesting story OF all,
ana here again you can find that story
In his own writing. This time, how
ever, It is in his letters more, than in
hid books. These letters are so vivid,
moreover, that you feel as Il you were
rieht Ii Samoa with him. You are liv-
IND in his spotless little box Of house,
called vailima, which means five

WEDDING WAS INTERRUPTED

Halt Ceremony While Sally Jag.

Bishop Gambler of Georgia recent,
told one of the national lawmakers
from that State an experience he had
when he first began to preach the Cos
pei and tie nuptial knots, says the
Warrington Times.
zone day was called on and en-
gagged to marry couple In one of the
-of-the-way districts. l found the
house a rudely constructed log affair
with but one room and loft above
which was entered by ladder and a
trap door. A big table was in the cen.
ter Of the room, and it was loaded with
good things to eat, everything having
been cooked on an open fireplace which
took up nearly all of one side of the
room. The bride and groom lined up
and I was proceeding with the cere.
mony, and while In the most impressive
part Of 1t, the old lady poked her head
out of the trap door In the loft and
called:
"'Sally, turn them chickens and jag
'em with a fork
1.-THE command was obeyed by the
daughter, she leaving the trembling
bridegroom while she Jagged 'em with
a fork could not help laughing at
the righteousness of the whole affair
and have never witnessed marriage
ceremony since without remembering
this experience"

Death of Chief Justice Mcclellan.

The long illness of Thomas Nicholas mcClellan has been terminated by his death while seeking health in the southwest While his death was not wholly unexpected, yet it comes as a shock 10 the people of this state. He stood high as a jurist, and he had en- deared himself greatly to the people by long and faithful service. In all parts of this state his untimely death will be deeply mourned.
 He came from old Alabama stock, for his father was an Alabamian who sat in the constitutional conventions of 1861 and 1S65 Thomas N. McClel- Ian, his son. was born in Limestone county. and he never lived elsewhere. He took a seat in the supreme court in 1889, becoming chief justice in 1898, and he died in office.
 Throughout the years of his active life he was a lawyer-sometimes as lawmaker, oftener as an interpreter of the law. He never held an office that was not directly connected with the laws of this state. He was first, last and always a lawyer, and the state did not perhaps hold a better one.
 Limestone will no doubt claim that it's great son shall be laiu in it's soil, but the dead jurist belongs to the en- tlre state, and it seems fitting that he should have a state funeral. He was never married. and the states claims would seem to have priority. The friends of the late. chief justice In Montgomery and in Limestone will, however, decide the subject, and our news columns will explain where all that is mortal of an honored son will rest

Dust Nuisance.

q have never seen the dust in Birming- ham as bad as 1t is now" said woman on a South Highlands street ear yester- day afternoon, and her statement was echoed by half dozen women sitting near her. Ut seems to me that the peo- pie on the street cars would be better protected against the dust if the con ductors and motormen would use lit- tie judgment.
 With the dust as thick as it is at present people in the cars would receive some protection If the conductors and motormen would keep the doors closed Instead of trying to keep them closed, 1t looks as if they try to keep the doors open as much as possible.
 Some conductors do not seem to real ize that the comfort of passengers is to be considered. Several times recently the dust has been so bad that 1t choked peo- pie on the car, but the conductor never thought to close the doors. Once l saw man close the door and a minute after ward the conductor came inside the car to collect a fare and left the door open. The passenger closed it again and the conductor opened 1t and left 1t open again as he stepped on the platform after getting the money"

Confederate Graves.

Mrs. w. J. Behan president of the Confederate Southern Memorial asso- citation, appeals to southern Senators ana Representatives to support Sena- tor Forakers bill, which approprlates $200000 for the purpose of marking ana caring for the graves of Confed- crates who died in northern prisons
 Mrs. Behans request will be freely responded to by southern Senators and Representative no doubt; but in truth the Foraker bill does not go far enough. 1he Underwood bill is the one that should be passed by a great and gener- ous country, for it calls for like care of Confederate graves and Federal graves, both by the common govern ment The graves were filled in civil war in which each side fought for its convictions If 1t is too early to pass the Underwood bill then let the Foraker bill be passed, trusting that in a short time the Underwood bill will be passed also.
 The Congress of a reunited nation should not in very truth hesitate to pass the Underwood bill. No measure would do so much to knit together the country, none would be so great a solace and comfort to the south. No possible harm could flow from it, and a rich country can well afford to be generous after forty years of peace and prosperity. The south gets compara- lively little from the general purse. but the passage of the Underwood bill would set things nearer right after all the years that have passed.

Oreuon's Whippinq Post.

It will be remembered that President Roosevelt suggested the re-establish- ment of the whipping post for wife beaters, and Congressman Adams did present a bill to set up one in the Dis trict of Columbia The Adams bill did not, however, become law, but as a result of the agitation Oregon did on May IS last pass whipping post bill
 The Oregon papers do not regret the action of their state. Nine months have elapsed. in that time three wife beaters only have felt the lash in Ore gon, and it is asserted in that state that wife-beating has become lost art. If more than three wives have been beaten by their respective hus- bands in that state they have certainly neglected to carry their cases into court.
 The defenders of the whipping post should bring out all the facts, for if

Einhtinu for Clean Sheets.

The Travellers Protective associa- tion of Georgia proposes to push bill through the Georgia legislature com polling hotel keepers to provide each new guest with clean sheets. Clean bed linen is strictly exceptional i'll some hotels in remote villages, and some commercial travellers say the trouble complained of is not confined by any means to the rural districts.
 The effort, however, to put the Pull man car rule as to sheets and pillow cases into effect in all hotels is large sized undertaking, and the proposed bill will have to be full of penalties and safeguards in order to become eff cient The movement will be equiva- lent to a revolution, and revolutions can not. as a rule. be induced to spring up in a night in all localities. The proposed Georgia revolution in sheets will no doubt have to be worked out gradually.
 But the proposed revolution in re- lation to sheets should not be confined to Georgia. Clean sheets are needed in other states. and the Travellers Protective association in every state should sound the sheet tocsin. We need a sanitary move ment all along the line that will usher in not only clean sheets, but also wholesome meals and living conven- iences It is a big proposition, and Georgia proposes to tackle 1t. Much power to her in her new movement.

Two Senatorial Elections.

The addition of Governor Johnston to the list of aspirants in the Sena- torial succession race increases the number to five. and there may be five more. The number of aspirants may be changed but it is scarcely probable that the form and nature of the two contests will be. That is to say, John Tyler Morgan and Edmund Winston Pettus will poll the votes of all demo crats as their own successors. while a number of younger men will seek the votes of their fellow-citizens for ap- pointment in case vacancies uneXpect- edly occur.
 The two races should not become confused in the minds of the people. In the walkover that the democracy will plainly accord to our veteran Sen ators each county will instruct It's rep resentatiyes, and each district its state senators. how to vote. It is a matter of local instruction The county and the senatorial district act independent of the remainder of the state. When state senators and representatives are selected on August 27 the voters will tell them whom they desire when two United States Senators arefto be se- lected next January. It is matter of local instruction and representation.
 Not so in the case of vacancy after the January election. In that event, which all hope will not occur, the dem ocratic voters name two choices in a state primary Local lines cut no fig ure. The democrats as a state body select by the plurality rule two men, the one receiving the larger state vote to take the first vacancy, and the other the second vacancy. Each vote counts one without reference to representa- tion or local lines, and the state com mittee complies the returns from the counties.
 These distinctions should be kept in mind, for they render the two popular elections different in manner, method and expression. The state senatorial districts are not based on population, and even the representative districts have in some cases small relation to that basis.
