COSTLY RAZORS.
Some Gold Handled That Sell for $50. Handles of Silver and of Ivory.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
 If a man were content to shave himself with razor having hard rubber handle as indeed most men are, he could buy one with a blade of very excellent quality for a dollar; but there are razors far moro expensive than this.
 Thus there are sold razors with handles of 1S-karat gold, and of plain smooth finish. that bring $50 each-a pair of such razors in plain silver box can be bought for hundred dollars.
 But $50 Is not the limit of what one may pay for a gold handled razor. If the handle were eaborately chased it's cost might mount up twice that, or $200 for a pair.
 There are also sold, among those more expensive, silver handled razors which range in price for from s6.50 to s3O each; S65O being the price for one with plain silver handle. while those more costly have their handles more or less elaborate Iy chased or carved
 A man who lid not altogether like hard rubber handled razor might find his fancy suited with one having hanhle of ivory, and an ivory handled razor need not necessarily be expensive; razor with a plain ivory handle can be bought for &. Of course any carving would add to the cost
 Costly razors are usually sold for gifts.

Moved Out of Home.

Deputy Sheriff George Jones and two assistants went out this afternoon to serve a dispossess warrant against R. L.. Hardaman, whose possession of house and surrounding land have been the sub ject of Mitigation for nearly five years. The deputies went armed, as Hardaman had refused to give up the property, even with judgment of the court against him and had announced that he would defend himself against any attempt to put him out, but the mission ended peaceably When MT. Jones and his men arrived at tho house several miles from Bessemer they found only Hardaman's wife and children there, but against their protests moved them and their belongings out A barley then followed resulting in an agreement between the agent of the own CT Of the property and Mrs. Hardaman that moderate rental would be paid for the place. so the family moved right back and peace reigned
 The property Is owned by w. M Quinn but was sold at tax sale several years ago and bought by w. II. Jones. He sold the place to R. l.. Hardaman but 1t appears that the deed was imperfect so that In legal proceedings Quinn again se- cured possession. This was disputed by Hardaman, who refused to leave the place. and the case finally went to the supreme court. which affirmed Gunn's ownership. Judgment was rendered four years ago but 11ardaman has absolute ly refused to leave. hence the serving of the dispossess warrant yesterday.

H|GHWAYMtN MEEK AS PAIR OF LAMBS Took Possession of Baggage
 Car on A. C. s. HARDAMAN HELD TO HOME Refused to Leave on Court Order and Dispossess Warrant Had to
 Be Served-Run Off In
 Bessemer Tomorrow
HARDAMAN HELD TO HOME

Bessemer. April 13.-(Specal)-Ylsions of train robberies fitted through the minds of the people of Bessemer this morning when a hurry-up call was sent by the depot agent of the Alabama Great Southern road to the police station for officers to meet train No. 1. due here from New Orleans at o'clock. Alarm increased when Chief of Detectives w.. S. Patton was seen rushing to the depot in an automobile communicated for the oecaslon
 A crowd had gathered at the depot where the train stood with everyone gag ing at the baggage car, waiting for de- veopments. The trainmen were excited and in answer to questions said that the baggage car was occupied by robbers or hoboes, who had taken possession at Meridian and locked themselves in and wouldn't come out. The conductor on his men feared an attack so they let the intruders stay where they were un- til Bessemer was reached, to which place the conductor wired ahead for officers.
 Detective Patton took in the situation at glance and approaching the window of the car said. Here you fellows, come out of there or I'll break through here and come after you" To the surprise of everyone the door was opened and two meek looking young fellows, who didn't look much like desperadoes, jump ed out and surrendered without an at tempt at resistance, while the train soon pulled out.
 The two offenders, when questioned at the police station. gave their names as A. Parr and l.. R. Sharpe. They said they were iron moulders and had been at work in Meridian and were making their way back to Pennsylvania whence they originally came. Further questioning developed the fact that they were a wan dering pair and had been to Texas and other states west but with the approach of warm weather desired to hike back to northern regions.
 The young men were asked why they took possession of the baggage car in such a bold manner, and said that they wanted a ride and didn't have funds, so they slipped into the car, and once inside. chose to lock themselves in and go as far as they could rather than get thrown off at Meridian.
 When searched the pair were found to nave only about 50 cents between them and no weapons, so the local police of- ficers consider the matter a rare joke upon the train men and a light sentence is expected when they are arraigned Mon- day.

TELEPHONE HELLOS
 52,OOO,OOO A DAY
INDEPENDENT COMPANIES IN SOME PARTS OF THE COUNTRY STRONGER THAN BELL CON- CERN.

From the New York World.
 There have been Is, 47S,05 telephone calls every day during the last year, according to the annual report of the American Telephone and Telegraph company, which owns all the Bell telephones in the Unit ed States. This takes no account of the independent telephone companies, which in some parts of the country are now stronger than the so-called monopoly. A round estimate gives 32000,000 calls day. The Bell exchanges gave 5,503 ,900,000 con- nections during the year, and nearly Ill., 000 000 people said Hello, Central,' and other things to the operator.
 The Bell Telephone company last year gave employment to more than 900OO persons-more than 15,000 more than dur ing 1905. The number of telephones in the United Staes is shown to be 2,727.2S9 It takes more than 6,000,0C0 miles of wire to connect them and more than 100000 miles of this wire is run underground. The average daily number of toll connec- tions, or the number of times one system is connected with another in what is called long distance, was nearly 5OoOVo last year. or a total of long distance con versations for the year of 150,000,000. The number of exchanges in the United States is 4SS9 supplying more than 100000 diff  ferent circuits.
 In the Bell annual report the statement is made that the independent telephone companies have made little relative gain, except in a few localities. According to this statement, comparatively few inde- pendent plants have been established in competition with the Bell during the last two years
 Independent telephone companies in this city take exception to this statement. They declare that the independent compa nies have been unusually active during this period and their gains have been enormous. The statement was made yes terday that but for the opposition of the city authorities New York would have had an independent system in full opera ton by this time. It is practically the cnly large city in the United States that has not had an opposition service, which has brought about big concessions in rates from the monopoly.

THE KAISER A DRUMMER.
Gets Orders for His Factories From
 Friends and FeIloW-M onarchs.

From the New York World.
 Emperor William is developing into an admirable commercial traveller.
 He showed a bent in this direction soon after he came to the throne. In his Ire quent journeys to foreign countries he al ways bore in mind that he had great bus mess concerns at home, like krupps s. which would be very glad of big orders, and especially from the Sultan he man. aged to extract quite a number Of val uable orders for steel rails and cannon.
 Now he has gone d step farther. In walk through his estate at Cadinen some time ago he happened to notice that the clay in a certain district looked remark ably like clay he had seen somewhere used in making pottery and porcelain. He had specimens examined by experts. who declared 1t good Then he lost no time. He had a factory built. ordered designers and other skilled workmen from the DOT celain factory at charlottenburg to the new works in Cadinen, devoted a great deal of time and money to the enterprise. and in few months the factory began to turn out articles in majolica which he pronounced better than anything of the kind produced abroad His tiles for flooring he was particularly prond of, and he began at once to solicit orders from friends. When he went to shooting par tics or visited any of his magnates he was loud in praises of the Cadinen manu- factory, and numerous were the orders he got.
 He is also fond of saying a good word for his farm produce. his prize bulls. bears, fowls, and is immensely hattered if he gets orders for stock.

Why He Did Not Marry,

From the Monthly Review.
 As a reason for not marrying Brahms once wrote to a friend:
 'At the time when l should have wished to marry, my compositions were either hissed at, or at any rate very cooly re- ceived. l knew their worth though and that sooner or later the page would be turned; and in unmarried solitude never really took my reverses to heart.
 But to be questioned by wife al such moments, to have her inquiring eyes anx- iously fixed upon me, to hear her ask: Again fiasco?
 No, that I could never have borne. For, however much she loved me and be- lieved in me- l could not have expected Ter to have unwavering faith in my sub seqlent victory. And had she attempted to console me. Ughi I can't even think of it. It would have been little less than hellr'

FOUND HIS SKULL CROOKED.
And the Halter Lost One of His Best
 Customers.

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
 ''The machine that measures heads when hats are to be accurately fitted gives surprising revelations regarding the shape of peoples skulls,' says a Sixth street natter.
 ordinarily an odd shaped skull must be very badly formed indeed before it at tracts attention, for the flesh and hair make all skulls seem of the same shape, except when mans head is very long or very round; but the machine has little sections, fitting closely to the skull, and reproducing in dotted lines on a piece of paper the exact outline. The ideal form of the skull is almost an oval, and we usually think of it as of that shape, so that when men come in and have their heads measured for a hat, they often look very much disgusted to find that their brain pans have lump on one side. or hole on the other or are about twice as thick behind the ears as they are across Il e forehead.
 'I lost one customer. a Broadway mer- chant, who insisted on having his skull measured and his hat fitted. He had been buying hats of me for ten years, and al- ways had trouble with a new hat. until it fitted to the shape of his head. One day he saw the machine and determined to be measured and fitted. l tried to jolly him out of the notion, for I knew there must be something outlandish in the shape of his chanium, and was afraid he would get angry, but he wouldn't be jollied, so at last I measured him, and of all the shapes you ever saw that was about the worst
 "The outline looked like that of a football, half full of air, and with one side kicked in. He looked at his cranium map, said a very bad word, walked out of the store and never came back. didn't blame him much, for a man with skull like that would naturally want to keep the fact to himself. He is dead now, poor fellow. Insane? No. The shapes of peo- ple's skulls don't seem to have anything to do with their brains.''

Cost of European Armies.
e Review of Reviews.

From the Keview or ReVIeWs.
 Europe spent in round numbers &200,- 100000 on it's army and eSO,0OO,000 on it's navy in 1906, as against 2146.O00.000 and f60,000,Oo0 respectively in 1898. That is to say, Europe spends today e2S000o,000 on it's army and navy as against f2O6 ,000, 900 in 1898, total increase of f74,000,00O, or say 26 per cent.

But Can't He Tell 'Em to Stop?

From the New York World.
 Just when President Roosevelt hopes that he has again succeeded in shelving the tariff revision issue France is so in- considerate as to threaten an increase in duties on American exports in the ab- sence of reciprocity treaty. Why is it that these foreigners have so little re- gard for the exigencies of republican pol itics?
