LEARNING A TRADE.

From the Washington Herald.
 Albert T. Patrick, whose life was saved from the electric chair by Governor Hig gins, who commuted his death sentence to life imprisonment, will live in the history of the country as the first, and, possibly the only man convictS of hypnotizing and causing another person to commit murder. A New York City jury found Patrick guilty of the murder of William M. Rice, Texas millionaire, residing In the metropolis. Patrick was Rices att torney, and the strong ground upon which the successful prosecution was based was that the old mans valet Jones, had killed him while under the hypnotic in- fuence of the lawyer, whose object in having his client murdered was to get control of his property. Jones confessed the crime, and pleaded in justification that he did 1t at Patrick's command while hypnotized. The highest courts fin New York sustained the remarkable verdict of the jury. While in the Ludlow Street jail awaiting action on his appeals Pat rick busied himself practicing law for fellow prisoners who had no money with which to employ lawyers In Sing Sing he is learning the building trade, and is not permitted to advise other conylcts On law matters.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
A Grocer,s Troubles.

One of the most difficult things to Ind in this city today said grocer, is a reliable negro porter. Employers of negro labor in mines and mills often com plain about their troubles, but in com parison with the storekeepers who tries to deliver goods to his customers outside the business district, they have an easy time.
 I do large business with people who live on the North and South Highlands. Orders come over the telephone for some small article which a smart boy could deliver in a few minutes on a wheel, but once negro boy is smart enough to do that sort of work, he gets too smart to work at all. Tn the last month I have had six or eight boys. and had to fire them, some for idleness and others for various causes.
 T tried a white boy and he did pretty well for a day or two, and then quit. He said he couldn't stand the talk of the negro servants and cooks in the houses to which he carried parcels. The fact was, these negro women didn't want to see white boy coming about the place because it deprived some negro boy of a jobH

ROBSON ON EDUCATION

ton and its commanding position on the Mississippi river, through the proper edu- cation of its citizens, should take the leadership in the south. I believe furthermore, the southern stock, which is the purest Anglo-Saxon in America, only needs this educational awakening to again take leadership in the political and social life of the nation.
 New Orleans is now making rapid strides, but believe that a proper awak- ening of its citizens and the education of it's children would give 1t a growth un- paralleled in the history of Americas wonderful cities. Whenever and wher- ever in my humble sphere I can see that New Orleans gets fair treatment at the hands of the government and in every other way my services can always be commanded The long domination of the east has produced a tendency to monopS olize the new commerce to Panama that should take its natural course through the south, and we should all stand to- gether to check this and all other forms of discrimination, such as freight rates from the Mississippi valley to tidewa- 4ar

A PREACHER'S COMPLAINT.

From the Richmond Times-Dispatch.
 The Rev. Thaddeus A. Snively has re- tired from the rectorship of St. Chry- sostom's Episcopal church, in Chicago, after a service of fifteen years. for req sons that he frankly reveals, and which do not speak we'll for the piety of the church. St. Chrysostom's Is a fashionable church, and has many rich members The rector says that he is retiring because of the appalling drain on the attendance, caused by the social fads of the hour automobling, golf and country outings generally.
 Everybody knows" says he, that there Is steady decline all along the social fabric in church-going, and the enthusiasm for church work. It seems that the whole world is becoming pleas ure mad. Where or when 1t will end mo- body knows First, 1t was the bicycle fad, then Sunday baseball, then golf, and now it is automobiling, plus golf and Sun day house parties. Whether my parish has been harder hit by these fads than other parishes or districts is more than can say with absolute certainty; but am strongly inclined to think SOL
 It is not so in Virginia. The statistics will show that the number of church att tendants in all classes of our people is steadily increasing. Tn this good old state most men and women of good name and fame think that 1t is not quite re- spectable to absent themselves from the church on Sunday for the sake of amuse- ment

Will Build Soap Factory.

Clean Birmingham has been a slogan for many a long day in the city and now the opportunity is offered for clean Brming- ham sure enough. A soap factory is to be built here and will be in operation within short time, furnishing at least 100 boxes of high grade laundry soap per day.
 The factory Is to be built by Robert H. Hood. who Has H. R. Hill an expert soap man from Cincinnati, associated with him. The factory will represent an investment of about $10,O00.
 This is the only part of the country where there is not soap factory, and there is probably greater demand for a high-class laundry soap than anywhere else In the south," said Mir. Hood last night. Not that Birmingham is any dirtier than other cities, but there are more people here to use soap than in any other city in the south, except New companies here which use large amounts of soap at their commssaries Some of the retail. firms here use surprising amount of soap, and I believe that the field is open for just such a business.
 We already have orders for a large amount of soap the minute we open our factory. The building is being erected by the Birmingham Realty company for our use and will be especially adapted to the making of soap"

and Iron company will increase its ca pacity as rapidly as it's extensions can be completed.
 But open-hearth rails have long ways to go before they overtake their Bessemer rival, for 3,7O5,642 tons of Bessemer rails were rolled last year as against 100000 tons of open-hearth rails. Nine per cent of all rails are now made from open-hearth steel. About Is per cent of all pig iron is now turned into rails, and no small part of the demand is due to the rapid ex- tension of street railroads.
 The orders of the big railroad com panies for deliveries in 1908 will be freely booked next month, and the price promises to remain unchanged, $2S ton at the mill. In seven years the production of rails has been dou- bled, and the railmakers anticipate a continued increase in rail consump- ton.

PROGRESS IN ARKANSAS.

From the Arkansas Gazette.
 Figures quoted in the annual address of President I. J. Stacy of Augusta to the Arkansas Bankers association show how Little Rock and Arkansas are progress ing.
 When the bankers met last spring the total bank capitalization of the state was s11 ,99l ,975 the total surplus $2,216,S20, and the total deposits $39,s19s90. On January last the total capitalization had in- creased to $1S,646,706, the total surplus to s5,OO7,045 and the total deposits to s47, 452,- S44.
 The bank clearings for Little Rock for the year 1905 were $53,6OS,103 and for 1906, s66, 666, 43l, an increase of PA per cent in year. No other city in the south ex- cept Mobile Chattanooga and Nashville showed such a percentage of increase. Little Rocks clearing for December, 1905, were s4, 432, 4oS, and for December, 19Co, S. 295 104. this increase, s7.2 per cent, be- ing 55.9S per cent greater than the in- city in the south for the same time. Pres ident Stacy said the clearings of Little Rock are a fair indication of the prog ress of various banks throughout the state.
 And happily, the story told by these figures finds confirmation in the expan- sion of trade and. industry as a whole in Arkansas.

Great American CeIehratinn

The Jamestown exposition opened on time and 1t is now in full swing, although the buildings are not com pleted and will not be for several weeks. But the Jamestown manage ment did wise thing in not postpon- ing the show. The Columbian exposi- tion at Chicago was a year late in opening and so too, was the Louisiana Purchase exposition at St. Louis. Those two fairs were of such man. moth proportions that it was impossi- ble to rush them to completion and as public interest centered chiefly in the exhibits postponement was neces- sary. for the people would not have got their moneys worth had the expo sition features been lacking.
 With Jamestown it is quite different. The exhibits are secondary. Norfolk and all Eastern Virginia are crowded with historic associations, and the in- telligent and eager American who visits the exposition will find great delight in viewing the landmarks of early colonial days, landmarks more numerous, more historic and more in- spring than can be found in any other section of the United States. And then in Hampton Roads one sees naval displays to better advantage than in any other harbor These two attrac- tions-the historic and the naval-will we'll repay the visitor and the rail roads will doubtless be taxed from now on just as if the exhibits were all assembled on the exposition grounds. The Jamestown celebration is the most distinctively American event of the kind since the Centennial at Phila- delphia in 1876.

ORIGIN OF KISSING THE BOOK.

From the Cornhill Magazine
 The exact origin of kissing the book in English courts, though modern, is ob- scure It is not, I should say, a matter of legal obligation, but seems to be mere ly a custom dating from the middle or end of the eighteenth century. If a wit ness claims to follow the law according to Coke and to take his "corporal oath" by touching the book who shall refuse him his right?
 The Kissing act seems akin indeed to what the fancy call, somewhat un- pleasantly, saliva custom, which in modern western life exists in very few forms, though many of the lower classes still "spit" on coin for luck.

RICHMOND P. ROBSON.

From the Shreveport Times
 Richmond P. Hobson has already gone to work to better the condition of the people of his congressional district, all though h. has not yet taken his seat in Congress. He proposes to make a sort of educational tour of his district and he says: "I will have with me the best experts in America on soils bearing on agriculture, on rural deliveries and on good roads. These experts win come from the office of public roads, from the bureau of soils and the experts on rural deliveries from the postoffice de- partment. Among other matters are pub lie schools, and I expect to inaugurate plans by which needed school houses can be secured throughout my district" For all of the fun that has been poked at him. MT. Hobson seems likely to develop into practical and sensible congressman n who believes that it is the duty of the man holding that office to be of some use to his constituents.

Anticipatinu 1908

The president is a fighter, and he has no intention of letting the For akers and the Harrimans in the land steal any delegates away from him. Whatever sentiment in his party is favorable to him he proposes to se- cure. even in the land that Fairbanks and Shaw had exploited. Assistant Postmaster General Frank Hitchcock, a pupil of Mir. Cortelyou, has been dis patched to the south to counteract the Foraker movement, especially in Geor- sia MT. Hitchcock fully understands the factions and cliques and cross pur- poses of southern republican politi- clans and he especially knows the ins and outs of southern postmasters. The senator from Ohio will find that there is to be a contest at any rate.
 When it is remembered that MT Roosevelt has two years of service at the fountain head of power remaining it will at once be seen how powerful he still is in the south, or, for that matter. elsewhere. He Is showing his power in New York state, where he IS coming to the support of Governor Hughes and his reform bills.
 The general impression in Washing ion is that the president favors the nomination of MT. Taft with Governor hughes as an acceptable alternative The best political seers of the country from Henry Watterson down, seem to consider Governor Hughes the winner with MT. Taft as an alternative. The commanding position of New York and New York's electoral vote do seem to point to Hughes as the more probable choice of the republicans. If they snuff danger in the air, they will certainly turn to Governor Hughes and his rec ord and his chances for carrying New York state.
