MR' BRYAN CANNOT
 COME TO MONTGOMERY

Will Not Extend Tour After Birming-
 ham Meeting.
 William Jennings Bryan will not ex- tend his Southern tour as far as Mont gomery. He has found 1t impossible to come to Montgomery after the big meeting in his honor in Birmingham on January 23.
 Members of the Montgomery Bryan Club some time ago extended an invita- tion to him to come to Montgomery for an address after the Birmingham meeting. The members of the club had urged MT. Bryan's acceptance or their invitation.
 Members of the club received notice yesterday from John w. Tomlinson, who is managing the Alabama trip of MT. Bryan, that the Nebraska orator would be unable to address the voters of Montgomery.
 The Bryan Democrats of Alabama will give him an ovation at Birming- ham and 1t is expected that Democrats from all over the State will take part in that great gathering. Mir. Bryan will be introduced by Governor Conner.

HoO the Name of Ben-Hur Was Decided by Gen. Wallace

Of the million or more people who have read General Wallace's novel. or have seen it's dramatization. probably few have thought of the significance of the name of the hero. In ancient Hebrew Ben-Hur literally translated means the son of Hur." General Wal lace selected one of the oldest families in Israel about which to weave his wonderful story. The land of Eur antedates written history. The Hur family played an important part in the rise of the Kingdom of Israel and JUS members intermarried with the royal family
 Today prominent men do not receive a descriptive addition to their name from their places of residence. As an example take President Roosevelt. His summer home at Oyster Bay ls one of the best known spots in the country today. Had he lived in ancient times | he would have been called by the old writers Theodore of oyster Bay" So Canton is inseparably linked with the name of Mckinley. Following out this line of thought, if the late President | had been a ruler in Israel, an oldest | son would have been Ben-Canton. In the Scotland of the days of the earlier kings he would have been called Mac

BOYS AT, A BANQUET
DELIGHTFUL OCCASION AT THE Y.
 M. c. A. BUILDING.
More Than Eighty of the Boy Mem- bers of the Montgomery As- s0ciefiOn Sat at the
 Table

The banquet given on Friday night by the Y. M. c. A. to the boys of the Association was one of the events of that department. The table was loaded with everything that is dear to the boys heart, and what is more, there was a great abundance, so much so that there was still a great amount of fruit left over to be used at other times and places in the work among the boys.
 No less than eighty hoys sat down to the banquet, and throughout the evening were entertained and furnish ed entertainment themselves. Rev. Willis Clark made a most interesting talk to the boys which was both help 1 full and entertaining He was never 1 tiresomely serious his talk being in- terspersed with many interesting sto- rfes.
 J. Lee Holloway also made a talk to the boys. He told them an inter esting story of 8 boy who seemingly | had no chance to become famous in the world, by hard work was now counsellor to the Queen of England. The talks of both Mir. Holloway and MT. Clark did much toward opening the eyes of the boys to the fact that the Y. M. c. A. did not work along one line only, but that the all round l development of the boy, physically, mentally and spiritually was the idea | of the Association. The success of the banquet is due largely to the efforts of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Association. Among those who were most active in the work of the banquet were: Mrs. Hall, Mrs. William Gunter, Mrs. W. H. Thomas, Mrs. c. L. Campbell, Mrs. DeJarnette, Mrs. John Hugh, Mrs. Ross, Mrs. Janney, Mrs. Vandiver, Sr., Mrs. John Cody. Mrs. Little, Mrs. Moore, Mrs. Schneider, Mrs Robertson. Mrs. F. H. Fillmore, ST.

Canton. If by chance he had been born and ruled in the days of the min strel kings of Ireland. his son would have been known as O'Canton. In Wales the descriptive prefix "Ap" would have preceded the surname.
 Latin writers first gave to the world the use of two names, like John Smith" In passing 1t may be observed that the ancient and honorable family of Smiths do not derive their name from the.

aA Yankee Teursst.c

At the Grand Tuesday night, Henry w. Savage will present Raymond Hitchcock in the three act comic opera, "A Yankee Tourist" The piece comes after a long and successful run on Broadway. New York City.
 "A Yankee Tourist" has an inter- esting consistant plot, which in itself Is an excellent farce The story has for a central figure q Yankee globe trotter who falls in love with a train ed nurse going to serve in the Turko- Grecian War. takes the place of a newspaper correspondent who finds it impossible to go to the front. gets rcap- tured as spy. but escapes from the difficulty, covered with glory. He is decorated by the Grown Prince of Greece and wins a charming wife and a vast treasure.
 The book is the work of Richa I'd Harding Davis. the famous war cor respondent and author. Having studied the quaint personality of MT. Hitchcock, he constructed vehicle for the latter which enables the comedian to display that unctuous humor and peculiar art of characterization which have made him famous. Several of Mir. Hitchcock's songs. such as Whats the Use," There Comes a Night" and "Ebenezer Frye" are being whistled all over the Metropolis at present and are some of the best things in their line that have been heard for many a day.

to that of any other play of the kind that has so far been shown, but by the production of others. its authoress. Miss Adeliade Prince, has profited. Before attempting to put The Power That Governs" in manuscript form, she made it a point to witness and study every other Westefn play that has achieved fair measure of success and she used the knowledge gained by such observations to steer clear of the weaknesses which prevented their ac- ceptance by the play going public as really great dramas.
 MT. Murry confidently asserts that in The Power That Governs" he has found for his brilliant young star not only a vehicle that is delightfully."- fitted to Mir. Clarke's ability and methods Of dramatic expression. but also play that will take rank in the publfc's g estimation with the two greatest dramatic successes of the past decade. to wit. ''The Music Master" and ''The Lion and the Mousse "THe Power That Governs is like them, a play of human emotion and human accomplish ment, with much action and a set of characters of exceptional strength and attractfveness. Mir. Clarke plays a young ranchman and miner who has been deserted by his father at an early age. His penchant for rescuing other people from difficulties brings him again in contact with his father, who proves to be a prominent financier of New York. and who,S unable to resist the calls of sentiment sounded by his meeting with the boy, acknowledges and accepts the youth az his eldest son.

the book was shown to an expert II
proved to be beyond shadow of
doubt modern antique-that Is to
say, it was simply q copy of the orig
inal work printed by an ingenious book
fakir. SO clever was the imitation
that only an expert could tell it from
the original and rare book. Scores of
persons during recent years have
bought facsimiles of rare works under
the impression that they We're getting
the originals. Dickens Sunday I'm
der Three Heads" has been faxed
many times and sold as original to
collectors who no doubt treasure them
as rarities Genuine copies of this
little book are worth a good sum, and
some INSCRIPTIONS dealers, taking ad-
vantage of the circumstances, have
had 1t reprinted and palm Off the
copies on unsuspecting dictionaries
for the genuine first edition.
Many men make a living by doc

The first folio Shakespeare is. of

to say that every possible deception
has been practiced In fitting up copies
Of this work for sale. At one time the
manufacture of first folio Shakespeares
was quite trade. A first folio having
several leaves missing had leaves in
serted from the second folio, while in
one case the entire play OF "Cymbe-
line" was reprinted and inserted in a
first folio. The faxed" pages were
so cleverly done that several experts
were at first unable to detect them
when turning over the pages Of the
work in question. Book restorers, as
a rule, are most ingenious artists, and
they can produce an imitation of
page Of rare book which will deceive
hundreds of collectors. One particu-

two years, producing pages In facsim-

his addresses to the naughty Lady

Sidney-who was the most beautiful
woman of her time-was untouched by
Walters amatory verses, and she re-

him sentimentally of the old days at
