These are pretty sure to be the chief cotton producing counties of the state in any year, while Mobile, Baldwin and Jefferson are tall enders.
 Alabama has 67 cottonseed-oil mills, which turned out in 1907 products val ued at s9,690,OzS. Out of 494OOS tons of cotton seed produced in Alabama the mills in this state crushed 193,S01 tons The bulletin does not attempt to show what became of the remainder of the seed grown in 1907. The Meth erlands and France are by far the best foreign patrons of our oil mills.

Death of COngreSSman Wiley

After a long illness involving great deal of physical pain Ariosto A. Wiley, Representative in Congress of the Sec ond Alabama district has gone to his final rest. He was not quite 50 years old when a complication of maladies cut short his earthly labors.
 Ever since graduation at a Virginia college MT. Wiley had led an active professional and political life. He be- gan the practice of the law in Mont gomery in 1872 and there he remained to the end of his days. He was often honored by the votes of his fellowmen, and when he died he was in the eighth year of his congressional service.
 An active force in the politics of the state has been lost A good citizen is gone. A popular and efficient Repre- sentative has fallen. The Second dis trict has many able sons, but it has scarcely one who can commend the popularity and wide acquaintance that Colonel Wiley possessed in the na- tional capital. The district and the state mourns the death of noble citi- zen and Representative.

whether the last pang is as bad as 1t seems. We are told by surgeons that ehloroformed patients may give apparent evidence of acute agonies which they do not feel; death itself is often an an aesthetic so merciful that what people call living trouble' is obviously worse matter.
 l, for instance, who have never fa1nteh and never been anaesthetized in my lfe' have twice become from serious causes unconscious for a short time, and l have often wished that I could make over to- some recoiling soul whose name has been heard ringing upon the last roll call, the unspeakable comfort which that briet experience has given me. There was no pang-no terror-no time, no chance for either One seemed to slide gently and swiftly down a warm abyss, flower scent ed, grass grown safe and benefcent, into unutterable content. One melted into reace. One drifted into ecstasy beside which the deepest joys of consciousness are poor, pale things If one in truth should evade the body in such moment, death would stand chosen as the su- preme delight of living.

SOUTH SEA WONDERLAND

These phenomena occur in the midst of valley bottoms and by the brinks of the many rivers and lakes which beautify the face of this South sea wonderland.
 Fully score of lakes. large and small, from sea-lilze Taupomoana, whose bed was once an immense volcano, to the ex-- quisitely blue water sheets that hide in the midst of forest-clad hills, fill the hol- lows of the land, each with it's own char acteristic charms. Mountains of bold out line rise from the palins;s one of them, Ngauruhoe, is a symmetrcally perfect type of a volcano cone, 7500 feet high. There are the wonderful geyser valleys of Whakarewarewa, Walotapu and Wair- alzei.
 Another intensely interesting spot in this region of strange pictures is the Oralxei-koralSo valley, where the swift and deep Waikato river. fresh from Lake Taupo, sweeps through a steaming gorge, dashing over rapids in furious foam h. numerable hot springs hiss and spout on the verge of the great river. and geysers throw their spray into it's hurrying waters Terraces of glinting silicious de- posit, white, red and yellow. slope down into the waterside, some resembling great milky waterfalls suddenly frozen.
 A visit to Rotorua, the cable has just announced. will be the principal feature of the entertainments New Zealand will provide for the officers and men of the American battleship fleet when they call there in August.

Industrial Education.

The executive committee of the Alabama division of the National Society for the Promotion of Industrial Education will meet very soon and lay plans for the or ganization of a strong branch in this state. It is thought that at least four five hundred men interested in indus trial education will become members of this society.
 MT. Belton Gilreath Of Birmingham Is the chairman of the executive committee and J. A. Rountree is the secretary. Among the prominent members of this committee are: L. B. Musgrove of Jasper, Dr. c. c. Thach of Auburn, c. w. Ash craft of Florence, T. W. Palmer of Monte vallo, Dr. H. c. Gunnels of Montgomery, R. E. Pettus of Huntsville and I. w. Hiil of Opelika. Chairman Gilreath, who is as well known in the educational and phil anthropic world as he is in business circles, is very enthusiastic in the move ment of promoting industrial education in Alabama
 The National Society for the Promotion of Industrial Education will meet in At larta in November. The hope is express ed that Alabama as well as many other southern states will be well represented at this meeting. A very interesting ex- hibit of trade school work from all over the United States will be arranged at the forthcoming convention. After the convention is over an effort will be made to have the exhibit brought to Birmng- ham, and from here taken to Montgom- cry. It will do much toward arousin5 interest in industrial education.

DESERT OF eoRI ON THE MOVE.

Pelln Correspondence of China Times.
 On Wednesday afternoon heavy cloud appeared in the west and in few min utes the sun faded altogether out of sight. It was not long before the city was wrapped as in pail by cloud of yellow dust.
 It was so light that it did not settle to the ground very fast, and fine rain that was falling gradually changed it into mud, so that the umbrellas of those who were on the streets were soon changed from jet black to a mottled yellow.
 It was the same old story-the Desert of Gobi on the move; but 1t is as mar velous now as ever. There was not Q high wind at the time; at least, in the lower strata of air. What there was up higher is unknown This morning the paths and roofs were all turned yellow. quite the proper imperial color. And where the brooms of the not overclean house boys have passed by the step corners it is yellower still.
 This is one of the occurrences that trav elers hear about but are unwilling to believe. There have been times when lamps had to be lighted at monday.

Nomination of MT. Taft

A convention that was packed by the administration in a manner more open than this country had ever ex- perienced has executed the orders of the White House. William Howard Taft has been placed on a platform tha. was d.ctated in almost every line in the White House itself. The real platform is, however, Theodore Roose- welt and his policies, and the nominee has little chance Of success if he de- rarts in any material respect from the precepts of MT. Roosevelt.
 The way in which federal office holders were seated from the south, and the machine-like actions first of the national committee and then of the credentials committee at Chicago by which nearly all anti-Taft delegates were driven out regardless of the rights of contestants nearly created a revolution in the convention. The sub- Ject of representation in future con ventions was warmly debated cn Wednesday, and the present basis of representation was maintained by the close vote of 506 yeas and All nays. 1he southern delegates saved the day, for one northern state after another voted to change the representation of the southern rotten boroughs.
 William H. Taft goes to the people at the dictation of dying administra- ton that employed for that purpose delegates who have no electoral votes tehind them. If the country likes this change in popular government they will elect Taft President, but if they prefer the old way of selecting Pres ident they will act accordingly in No vember. As things Ctand, President Roosevelt has decided to see that his policies are carried out after he goes out of office. He selects a man to carry them out. This man Is William How. ard Taft, whom Roosevelt has caused to be made the nominee of the repub- lican party. He has written the plat form he is to stand on, and it is his will, rather thcn the popular will, that Taft stands for and represents. This may be all right, but it is not popular government. 1t is government by con- tinuity of administration. It is gov ernment by Theodore Roosevelt. This certainly is not government of the peo- pie by the people for the people.

pAILEY's SISTER GETS FORTUNE.
Heir To Comedians Money Found
 Polling In Hotel Kitchen.

From the Philadelphia North American.
 Danville, Pa.vThe great comedian, Peter Daley, who brought joy to tbou- sands during his lifetime, has been the means of brightening the future of at least one person after his death. When Peter Daley died at Chicago on May 23, he left an estate of $6o,0Oo, to be divided between his brother and sister. The brother, Robert Daley, an actor, was easily found, but more trouble was ex- perienced with the sister.
 At last, however, the lawyers traced her to Danville. They found the sister, Mrs. Charles Burnell. working in the kitchen of hotel to keep herself and her invalid husband from starvation.
 About two years ago Mir. and Mrs. Bur nell came to Danville to start up small vaudeville show. The project ended dis astrously, as did several others with which MT. Burnell associated himself, until they found themselves without any means or home in a strange place.
 Burnell was broken sdown physically, and his wife, turning her back on her profession, went out to seek employment. She took such work as she could lind. For year she toiled and seemed to make the most of her hard lot.
 MT. and Mrs. Burnell followed the show business for 16 years. but were compelled to retire from the profession on account of injuries sustained by MT. Burnell in his acrobatic work

Old Soldiers Pension Fund

The fourth-class pensioners for Ala bamians who served in the Confed- crate army will receive on July s5 instead of $125O The legislature voted to each veteran of the fourth class $50 year provided the 1-mill tax levied for that purpose would per init the payment of that amount. It will not do so this year, and Auditor Brandon has apportioned the sum re- maining in the treasury to the best of his ability. The veterans of the fourth class will therefore receive in the pres- ent fiscal year S42.50 instead of $50. It is believed the increase in taxable values will enable the state to pay them next year $50 each. Nearly all the pensioners belong to the fourth class. The pay of the pensioners of the three first classes has also been reduced.
 The number of pensioners has been increased to 16,546, and this increase has operated to cut down the annual pay of all. All veterans over 80 years of age are now placed in the first class, and they will receive this year $85. Here after they will receive no doubt $100 year, which will bring them somewhat near the rates paid to veterans of the union army. On October all pension CTS will receive for quarter of year the full amounts allowed by law. Aud itor Brandon makes all this plain in statement He shows among other things that the state has this year paid to the veterans $298, APT more than she ever paid them in any previous year.

Another Big Plant Coming

The establishment of a Harbison- Walker fire brick plant is plainly a result of the coming to this district of the Steel corporation. The link be- tween the two is not discernible. It is not susceptible of proof. Nevertheless, if the Steel corporation had not come here last fall the Harbison- Walker company would not be seeking today a site for one of its great clay-and-shale working plants. It is one of the great industrial enterprises of the country, it's central seat being in the Pittsburg district
 No one can measure the value to this district of the coming of the Steel corporation, for it's own great work will be supplemented in due time by train of valuable plants. The Harbi- son-Walker plant is the forerunner Of a long line of plants. At present only rich companies are building new plants, but the time will soon come when capital for new plants will be- come available on the basis of pros perity and activity. The Harbison- Walker concern has money enough of its own but plant DrOiectors are cOnl- pelled as a rule to gain sufficient capi- tai by rolling together lesser sums.
 The proposed Harbison-Walker plant will lend courage to the wavering of this district, for it says as plainly as anything inanimate can say that this district is the true seat in the south of iron and steel plants and of all their allied industries. Fire brick is one of the allies.

ABSENCE OF MIND,

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
 On one occasion Knowles met friend in the street and said "Ah, my dear fel low, I'm off tomorrow. Can I take any letters for you?' Well you are very kind" said his friend, but where are you golng?" "Ah." replied Knowles. "I haven't quite made up my mind yet"
 Another day he met MT. o. Smith, a well-known contemporary actor, in the Strand, and seizing his hand, inquired af- ter his health. Smith, who knew Sheridan Knowles by sight, but not personally, thanked him and explained that he was MT. O. Smith, and that his interrogator was probably mistaken. "Ten thousand pardons," said the author of "William Tell,' q mistook you for your namesake MT. T. P. Cook"
 Rogers was once walking with an ab- sent minded friend, and, in the course of conversation told him that on the pre- vious day a lady, half recognizing him, had addressed him, saying Isn't your name Rogers?" And was it?' inquired the absent-minded one.
