The Victory of
Captain Hobson.

The victory Of Capt. Richmond
Pearson HObsOn over Congressman
Bsnkhead. in the sixth Alabama, was
something Of surprise TO those who
have taken a delight in ridicUling the
political aspirations Of the hero Of
the Merrimac. His success has been
cOmented upon in various ways, but
the prevailing opinion is that he will
ably serve his district and the peO-
ple OF the entire country in the halls
g. Of congress. The Memphis CONNER
cial-Appesl believes that his. election
is a good omen to the south, and
relative thereto has the following to
say:
Without intending in any way to
disparage CONGRESSMAN BanShead, we
think the election Of an able and ag-
Rressive young man like Capt. Hob
son TO congress is a good omen. The
south is fortunate whenever it can
send a man of HobsOn's calibre 10
Washington He is a man of cOur-
age, Of intellect, and of high char
acter. Capt HObsOn distinguished
himself in the Spanish-AmeFican
war in one Of its most heroic eX-
UlOits. There was no discOunting the
HalOr of that adventure, nor his cred
st6ble share therein. After the war,
ne wrote an excellent account Of it
for the Century Magazine. He has
also delivered a series Of thoughtful
lectures in which he has demOnstrat-
ed that he is a force in our public
life Some sensational newspapers
tried to bring him into disrepute
with the sensible people Of the
country 10y representing him as kiss
ing long procession of foolish
women; but there was very little
basis for this absurd misrepresenta-
tiOn. At any rate HObson has shown
the stuff that is IN him by ignoring
these silly reports and pursuing the
even tenor Of his way. When he re
tired from the navy, he decided 20
enter public life Two years ago he
became a candidate for congress
against Bankhead, one Of the ableSt
politicians In Alabama, ana he Ger.
tainly give him a number of un-
pheasant half hours. He made a
wonderful race, considering that he
was a novice in politics, and had no
political organization; but he was de-
3eated. He accepted his defeat like
a man, but annOucned that he would
again be a candidate this year. He
has Just defeated Ban4head decisive
ly. and that without any organiEa-
ton. Evidently he has many excel
lent qualities, or he could not have
done this. He will prove an able
and honorable representative OF Ala
hama and the south; and he is en-
titled TO our congratulations. His
success means a triumph of char
acter, brains and efficiency.

Old Photographs. $.

There are very few homes which have not numerous old photographs too precious to be thrown away, yet of interest to few besides the immediate family. These generally take up too much space to be kept where they can be got at conveniently, and so are carefully put i'll boxes ill the storeroom pr attic, to be kept from the dust So when we would gladly spend q few moments looking on the familiar faces and scenes. alas, it is too much trouble to get them out. Here is one solution of the problem: Put the photographs in clear, hot water, and in short time the pictures can be easily removed from the cards. When dry either trim down the picture to economize spacel or cut away the background entirely. This last requires care, but can be done without destroying the outline Mount these in scrapbook or. better still, book made especially for kodak pictures. I. book or these books, if more than one is needed, can be made very interesting by clever arrangement of the pictures, grouping relatives, school friends, army comrades, babes, out of door scenes, etc, in different portions Of the book.
