 Gadsden Times-News: The Age-Herald most unkindly calls attention to the fact that the ice king passed over Alabama, and but lightly touched Tennessee and the rest of Georgia to settle with his frozen legions in the vicinity of Atlanta. Now Atlantas modesty forbids her to tell why

 New Orleans World The Chicago Trib- une rises to remark that "all great actors on the stage of life play now and then to the galleries" bill of particulars should go with h,this.-Birmingham Age-Herald
 We feel very sorry, indeed, but we have to differ from our esteemed contemporary at Birmingham, but really that statement is so raw that we must protest, at least. Great actors on the stage play to the gal leries just like they play to the rest of the house. The galleries pay their little money and, of course, they are entitled to play, or some play And if the great actor don't give them the goods, how are they going to get returns?

CLARINDA. Clarinda, on rainy day You set my spirits winging, And all my moods are those of birds In merry spring time singing. Methinks, the clouds are naught to you, Nor any pain or sorrow. You laugh. "Tho dark the world today ~ The sun will shine tomorrow.' Clarinda, tell me where you slipped The wine of youth enchanting Beneath an arch of purple grapes, Where Phoebus' rays were slantinge

Political Spoils.

"If MT. Bryan should be the next Pres- ident tens of thousands of democratic workers throughout the country will move on to Washington with hopes of getting government jobs," remarked an old poli- tician. But the civil service law has greatly restricted political patronage There are, in fact, comparatively few fed eral positions open to the old school office seeker. All the clerkships formerly be- longed to the spoilsmen but most of them are now out of the party reach.
 q remember the scramble that took place in 1885. There were civil service regulations, even as far back as that, but the majority of positions were then out side of the classified list. Grover Cleve- land, the only democratic President since the war, was a civil service reformer, but during the first two years of his first term he did not have time to give atten- ton to such matters as classifying clerk ships and deputies, and fully 75,000 re- publicans were bounced and democrats put in their places. A majority of those appointed to the choice positions were ex- Confederates. The south marched on to Washington in pretty solid phalanx and while many office-seekers had to exercise patience and wait, those who had the proper influence and home backing finally landed in the places they sought.
 "The democratic congressman were busy men in those days Democratic members of the House had to hustle for the workers in their respective districts and it was difficult, indeed, for them to find time to give to the consideration of national legislation. From Jackson's day until Cleveland's second administration the doctrine. TO the victor belongs the spoils,' was held to be practically sound by both the republican and democratic party. It is very different now"

West Alabama Breeze: Announce ment is made from Birmingham that one 12-story building and another 15 or 1S-story building are to be erected in that city this year. Also that other building projects are on foot It is further stated that mills, mines, fur naces, etc., are gradually moving up toward their normal run. This sounds very much as if the district is recov- ering from the late financial stress.
 Sheffield Standard The ladies will no doubt be glad to learn that the innocent game of "bridge' is not to be classed with ''craps'' and other gambling games.

MARQUETTE TEAM
Up TO STANDARD

The Marquette League held a meeting
In the armOry Of the District Of Column
bia National Guards, and the following
teams, which viii comprise the league,
were represented: Trinity, St Joseph,
st. Peter, St. Theresa, ST. Dominic. and
ST. Vincent.
At a recent meeting the board OF di-
TeCtOTs instructed tn, secretary to issue
invitations TO the various leagues to
cooperate with the Marquette League
in establishing legislation preventing
a player from playing in more than one
league during a season. Inasmuch as
the Independence and Sunday School
Leagues were the only ones heard from,
the Marquette League decided TO drop
the matter for the present.
The teams Of the Marquette League
are materially strengthened. The old
Sunday School League grounds, at
Thirteenth and D streets northeast, will
be used, and Captain Edwards, presi-
dent of the league. predicts another
prosperous year for his league
