Montgomery will have twenty-five thousand strangers within her gates today-the greatest crowd of visitors she has ever entertained. They are strangers in name only: most of them have been here before and those who have not have garrulous kinsmen and talkative friends who have; and besides what they have heard by informal mes sengers they know that 1t is not a mu- of their own State and therefore as much theirs as if they lived in it.
 And the people of Montgomery through their committees and represen- tatives will disseminate that kind of knowledge as widely as possible. If the visitor does not feel at home 1t will not be a fault but misfortune.
 A bureau of information will be es- tablished on Court Square.
 The whole family will be here. Pa pa will shake hands with his repre- sentative who doesn't seem so large in Montgomery. and Mama will see the strangest looking frock and peek guile lessly at a woman that looks So much like Cousin Lou she might be her sis ter that died two years ago; and little Emma will spy uncle Walter all the way across the wide street. all hustle and worry and haste and hurry; and lit tie Rubber, wildly waving on the end of Papa's coat tails, will tug frantic signals to know If the great big man with the blue coat and the brass but tons and the club Is the GOVERNOR. with a wireless postscript about the price of the single red balloon in the bunch of gorgeous purple ones.

 But there is a general desire on the part of the members of the Legislature to hear first hand what the new Gov ernor is going to say as to his future policies during his administration. It is confidently expected too, that the new Governor will have something of importance to tell the Legislature and the people of Alabama.
 While a great many members of the Legislature went home after Thurs days recess to spend the Idle time with their families, the most of these have now returned. Those that have not returned will come in the trains this morning. Perhaps half of the members of the two Houses. however did not find 1t convenient to go home and they have as a usual thing. chafed under the enforced idleness of the past three days.

Olive OH And Wines From France Vio-
 late Food Law.
 Washington, Jan. 13.--Olive oil and wines coming from France to the Uni- ted States are adulterated and mis- branded, States Consul D. l.. Murphy. of Bordeaux, in a report to the bureau of manufacturers.
 False brands and fictitious names are used by the laws of France, though 1t must be admitted that in many in- stances their use is directed by Amer ican importers. The consul writes that while immense quantities Of olive oil are shipped to the United States under fictitious names it must not be pre- sumed that all or any coustderapie portion of it Is adulterated. A list Of the fictitious names with the houses uisng them here are on file at the ou- reau of manufactures.
 Certain unprincipled dealers or brokers, says the report, buy up the entire output of some of the vineyards where good wine is produced and with the addition of alcohol and water null tipiy the output many times over.
 The consul believes that rigid en- forcement of the regulations recently promulgated will reduce to minimum if not entirely stop the misbranding and adulterating of oils wines and other food products.

struck on Beach.
 Chatham. Mass. Jan. 13.--Straying from the beaten track. the Clyde Line freight steamer Quondaga, Captain Bunnell. bound from Boston for Char leston and Jacksonville, struck on Orleans beach early today and is in a dangerous position.
 At low water this afternoon the Quondaga was high and dry. but none of the crew came ashore. as the vessel at no time gave evidence of breaking up. The chances of saving the steam CT are about even.
 The steamer struck the beach nearly head-on and the heavy sea soon drove her stern around. until at daylight her nose was pointing back toward Bos- ton. The vessel had wandered two miles off her course in the fifteen mile run from Nausette Lights to Pollock Ripshoal Lightship during the night.
 The Quondaga left Boston yesterday afternoon with & miscellaneous cargo for the Southern States.
 Two tugs arrived at the scene this afternoon but no attempt was made to float the vessel. It Is expected that the greater portion of her cargo will have to pc lightered before she can be floated.
