 Public opinion has proved too strong for Pope Plus favorite, Cardinal Merry del Val, and very much against his will he has had to give up his sumptuous quarters in the Vatican for moro mod est apartments in the apostolic palace.
 Some time ago tho all powerful car dinal took 1t into his head that he would like to live in the Borghia Halls of the Vatican and after receiving the Pope's permission he had them closed to the public and moved In.
 Then a great wall went up in the whole European press and 1t was claimed that the smoke from the car dinars big black cigars would ruin the famous frescoes by Pinturicchfo which ornament the walls of these rooms and which once narrowly had escaped de- struction by the camp fires of the Connetable of Bourbon.
 Cardinal del Val paid no attention to the fury of the newspapers but the Pope has proved more sensitive and few days ago the eminent cardinal had to leave and the halla are once more open to the public.

 Peruna tends to lessen. the cough, de- creases the expectoration. strengthens the patient, increases the appetite and in many cases procures sound, re- freshing sleep.
 But the value of Peruna in the treat ment (of case of consumption is not SO great as 1t is in the prevention of consumption.
 Since it is we'll known that consume tion begins with common cold or ca. tarrh, any medicine that can be relied upon to relieve these must be Tegardei as a preventive of consumption.

executive committee, by action taken yesterday.
 A new executive committee was named at yesterdays meeting. It Will consist of Chairman H. c. Gunnels, pr. B. J. Baldwin and F. C. Murphy.
 The Committee yesterday passed resolution unanimously endorsing the work that had been done by the school improvement committed of the Ala bama Federation of Women's Clubs. This committee has been most active. not only in arousing interest in educa- tionaI matters in Alabama, but it has succeeded as well in arousing interest in the improvement of school houses in Alabama, and the result of that tri- terest has been marked
 Another resolution which was given unanimous support was that which ear- nestly urged the Legislature to pass a bill providing for competent super vision of the common schools. This is regarded as one of the most import ant pieces of legislation that will come before the Legislature. It Is believed by those in a position to know. that the lack of competent supervision Is one of the chief defects of the school sys- tenn of the State.
 The Committee. through the resolu- tion 1t passed. showed its deep interest in the measure which seeks to increase the appropriation to the common schools by $30o,00o. The Committee Is no less interested in amending the Constitution so that individual school districts can vote to levy a special school tax. Under the Constitution now, only county can vote for the special tax.

The sad story of the ruin of prince- ly house because the son would not sell his title to an American heiress Is the talk of Rome at present, and inn mense crowds are focking to inspect the numerous treasures of the Sciarra Palace which is about to go under the hammer.
 Twenty-Five years ago the Sciarras were among the wealthiest families of Italy, but during these years disas- ter upon disaster had befallen the. princely house. and now all is ruin.
 Prince Maffeo Sciarra, only son and heir of the Princess. who has now abandoned her ancestral palace to her sons creditors. has had an adventur ous life. He has tried journalism, business, politics, exploration and yachting and has lost heavily at every thing he has undertaken.
 Finally negotiations were tried to i'm duce Prince Maffeo to marry the daughter of Chicago mil lionaire, but he refused to sell his title. Next a beautiful young widow of a celebrated chocolate manu- facturer (the same by the way whose name was recently mentioned as q possible bride for Count Boni de Cas- telane), appeared upon the scene as candidate for the title of Princess Mai fao Sciarra but the Italian again spurned riches and eventually he made

Why Bankers Don't Like Them and

''Of the different kinds of American
money now in circulation the gold
coins of all denominations are the most
iisliked in my business" said promi-
nent New York banker:
Take greenback, a silver or a gold
your bank and it is received and plac-
ed to your credit without moments
delay. Not so with gold. A few days
ago a gentleman brought to our bank
upward of $4,000 in gold of different
denominations and was much provoked
because we would not receive it and
give him credit with the amount the
face of the coin represented This we
could not do because the law requires
that gold shall be redeemed only at its
actual value. Coins carried in the
pocket for any length of time naturally
lose something by abrasion-proba bly
but a fractional part of a cent onkA ten
dollar piece. but it is a loss neverthe
less-and therefore bankers cannot give
credit for gold deposits UNTIL the coin
shall have been weighed In the case
mentioned my friend took his gold to
the subtreasury and was compelled to
wait there nearly an hour before he
could get notes for it.
every coin had to be passed through
the scales, and after the weighing proc
ess had been completed three of the
coins-two five dollar pieces and ten
dollar piece-were returned to him as
short in weight. Before returning short
weight coins the department. stamps on
the face of each coin cross. The
owner is either left to send the coins to
the United States mint for redemption
or again put them into circulation.
Eventually the coins with crosses on
their faces will go to the mint and be
redeemed at their actual value. In
many instances there may not be more
than several cents shortage on $50
