MARRIAGE NOT A FAILURE.

MARRIAGE NOT FAILURE.
 Tn The Buffalo Times of recent issue Kate Burr relates the following very interesting occurance as evidence that marriage Is not always a failure she says:
 There is a business man in this town who is aRgrieved. He doesn't ike IL because the married men in his estap- lfshment spend so much time telephon- ing their wives to find out now mat ters are getting along at home.
 The other day he was teiing ms taie of woe to a friend.
 Seems to me- said the friend, "that you oughtn't to kick. It LOOKS we'll for your force that they have such domestic tastes and that such an interest In their wives and child ren. If I were employing married man I should think 1t a good sign 1T he called his wife up three or four times a day. Really, what yoAve been saying gives me favorable view or human nature and more confidence in my fe1lowmen.
 "Indeed. if I want to hire new hand, you'd better look sharp for give you fair warning I'll be apt to come snooping around your concern and try to pick up one of the feiioWs who telephone their wives half-a-dozen times a day. I don't believe man Ii, that will ever tap the cash-draw- CT. make false entry to cover steal, or vamoose some night leaving your affairs in confusion. There's force in what you say, re- piled the other. Yes, you've put, up pretty fair argument A man can be about worse busi..oss than telephonlng his wife. I kpow enough of the world | to be aware of that, and I'll take 1t | into consideration ir dealing with lthese fellows. Come to think of 1t, they are good workers and trusty em- ployes.

Female Education In China.

Consul Haynes, of Ranking, writing about female education in China, says: The Viceroy of the Lang Kiang prov inces. Chou-fu, one of the most prog ressive of the higher Chinese officials, has recently founded a school for girls in Ranking It is supported by sub scriptions from a number of leading Taotais of Ranking, who have raised S4 2e6 and the Viceroy has subscribed S1,4S2 annually. The school Is located in quiet place with spacious build ings. Six women teachers have been engaged, three to teach English and three Chinese.
 "The opening of this school is an im- portant event in Ranking" says Consul Haynes, "as it is really the birth of fe- male education in this ancient city, for as has been remarked, in every new undertaking for the advancement of China. unless the Chimes themselves feel the need. and assume the reponsi- bIlity, 1t cannot be said to have taken root in Chinese soil The interest taken in this school by the leading ofti- cials of Ranking indicates the dawn ing of freedom for ChinA's girls and women. For the last few years the missionary girl schools have been do- ing good work. but this is the first school established under the patronage of the Viceroy. China is awakening to realize that a nations strength and prosperity lie in the education of her daughters s"-Washington Star.

Differences Between Government Elm. E-- ..In.rn. .nn.l L~nn..r.ae e rciaI XNnrIxera.

Differences Between Government Elm" pIoyes and Commercial Workers.
 In The New York Tribune of recent date the head of one of the Govern mental Departments, at Washington drew comparisons between "the busi- ness woman" and the "Woman Civil Service Clerk" and according td his very interesting reasoning, the hQnors are about evenly divided. It is as fol- lows:
 Which is more to be envied. the bus mess woman or the woman Civil Ger vice clerk? According to the head of one of the governmental departments, who was staying at the Hoffman House the other day. there isn't much to choose between them. '"The commer- cIal woman, as rule, is sharper" said this man, ''but she of the Civil Service is better educated The woman in New York here, for instance, or any other large city, has to perform whole va riety of duties, and adapt herself to a vast number of circumstances; the civil servant goes on an unchanging round year in and year out, and know of many fine and spirited wo- man, after a year of such monotonous work at Washington have all the life and ambition taken out of her. The woman at the capitol, however learns to do things thoroughly in her line, and she Is therefore, trustworthy; the woman in the city learns to do things quickly; but she is not always to be depended on to do her work perfectly.
 'The woman at Washington. again. has the advantage of a settled, com fortable position, and a comfortable salary, and she enjoys the dignity these things give. She is always a permanent creature, and ishe holds her office by a sort of legal right. Nothing save death or rank dishonor or incom- petence can deprive her of her position All these things account pretty com pletely for the restful, self-complacent look you will always observe on the faces of the minor government em- poyes at Washington. the men as well as the women.
 But the city woman of the com mercial class has no reason to kick; she has the satisfaction that she Is in the rough and tumble of the main cur rent of affairs she may be buffeted and choked and half-drowned, but she Is in the swim"

INDEPENDENT PHONE
SEEKER AFTER FRANCHISE AP-
 PEARS BEFORE ALDERMEN.
Charles E. Stark of St. Louis Argues In Support of Privilege to Build
 Lines in Montgomery.

For over an hour last night the joint committee on Franchises and Privileges and Electfcal Contract of the City Council listened to the arguments of Charles B. Stark of St. Louis. who Is seeking franchise for the operation of an independent telephone system in Montgomery.
 The meeting was held in the council chamber and was attended by the en- tire membership of the committee, pre- sided owed by Chairman Leopold Strauss.
 MT. Stark, who is a prominent law yer of St. Louis, was introduced by George w. Jones. who said that he knew Mir. Stark to be a man of integri- ty and of considerable financial abili- ty and to be associated with number of capitalists in the enterprise, that of installing independent telephone sys- tems throughout the country.
 He said MT. Stark was willing to lay his wires underground and was will ing to comply with any conditions the City Council might impose. The South ern Bell Telephone Company. he said, he understood had been waging vigor- ous fight to keep the Council from grant ing the franchise and had endeavored to raise a public sentiment by alleg- ing that two telephone systems would be a nuisance.
 MT Jones declared that experience of other cities showed just the con trary; that where there are two sys- tems, there are more telephones in each system, the price is-1ower and the service is better. He introduced MT. Stark.
 MT. Stark is an able speaker. He reviewed the history of the tele- phone in America and claimed that it was the independent companies that had caused the present condition of usefulness of the telephone. He quot ed figures showing that in every large city where the independent lines had entered both the independent telephone companies and the Bell Company, were doing an improved business He said that the capitalists that he represented were willing to spend $100,000 in Mont gonery All they wanted was fran chise and they would go after the sub scribers. He gave a thorough expla- nation of the plans ana guaranteed that if the system was allowed to en- ter Montgomery good service would be given.
 At the close of his remarks Alder man Sullivan moved that the matter be taken under consideration. The mo- tion was adopted and the committee adjourned
 MT. starke gave out as his asso- ciates in the independent line the fol- lowing we'll known men of affairs: Thomas M. Crouch. vice president of the Commonwealth Trust Company, St. Louis, and president of the St. Louis Dressed Beef and Commission Compa- nv; L. S. Mitchell, treasurer of the Com monweaIth Trust Company; Gustave ", Niemann, president of the. Title Guar antee and Trust Company, of St. Louis; Henry Wood, president Of the Jefferson Bank of St. Louis; Edward J. Coltra, president of the Sligo Furnace Company and others.
 He will leave today for New Orleans The committee will probably report al the next regular meeting Of the CoGn- ell.

PLANS FOR CAPITOL.
Architect Lockwood Preparing Design
 For Commission.

Afcnlt&ct LOCKWOOD fF@R&EfuB 0SsiBh
 For Commission.
 Plans of the addition to the Capitol will be placed before the Capitol Com mission as soon as it's secretary, Dr. Thomas M. Owen, returns from Talla- dega where he has been ,conferring with the trustees of the Talladega library.
 Architect Frank Lockwood has been busily engaged in re-arranging the plans of the building as originally planned by him and suggested by the Capitol Commission. The plans, 1t is understood. will conform largely to the ideas of Charles F. McKim. the emil nent architect of New York, who in- spected the building and the plans for the proposed addition recently. It is known that MT. McKim was emphati- caIly against anything that would change the present style of the build ing, which he believes to be perfect specimen of architecture.
 In the meantime, however, the mem- bers of the Commission are silent and nothing will be given out until the meeting which will be held today or tomorrow.

 A PRICELESS TREASURE OF ART. The following from The Rome Tri- bune will be of interest to Montgom- erians, as the artist. Miss Mitchell has spent the past winter in this city with her aunt, Mrs. Alex Garland:
 "Prfceless because it is her mothers miniature, A treasure because it is a true thing of art. The reference is made to d miniature that Mrs. M B. Mewiiliams has just had done of her mother, Mrs c. w. Holmes, made from a photograph taken when she was just IT years of age.
 "It is a most exquisite piece of work. done by Miss Estelle Mitchell, known and loved by all Romans. The color ing and fness of touch proclaim the artist born, the soul that demonstrates it's elf in achievement. Oh. but she is beautiful. the original of the picture, with fair, innocent face and clustering ourls caught back and falling loosely upon the pretty neck. The miniature is gold frame thickly studded with diamonds and opals. the mingled flame of stones harmonizing with the picture tones of color. A priceless treasure of art indeed"
