Fleeing CHARITY y

1t has Just been discovered in Bos-
ton-most aptly-that a profession
ally destitute family OF that city has
been working nineteen organized
charities during one case Of tubercu
losis, besides getting as much as four
dollars week from the privately
charitable. 1t so happened that the
head of the family couldn't stand
prosperity and qualified himself for
the city reformatery with such regu-
iarity that he was looked up. with the
result that his family was discovered
to be a syndicate working the chart
ties of the city TO finish.
This is one of those justly cele-
brated cases in which charity covered
multitude of sins, the principal one
of which was the neglect of the var

upon two things-a revision Of the
tariff that will satisfy the country as
fairly honest and just. and an imme-

There is doubtless a good deal in all

THE AUGUST SEA.

From the smart oet.
 Oh, the humble, humble, humble. Where the breakers crash and crumbl Where the clouds are on the tumble
 And the suns as bold as brass; Where the sand and surf's a-jumble, Where the waves start all a-humble, They come racing with a rumble
 From the sea of sapphire glass. Oh, the lifting, lifting, lifting, Of the curling foam that's shifting And the distant white-winged drifting
 Of the yachts across the bay; And the blood-warm sand a-shifting And in tiny mountains rifting, And the sunshine gone a-gifting,
 Quivering diamonds on the spray. Oh, the sounding. sounding, sounding, Of the little breezes grounding, And their sudden upward bounding
 Like young hounds across the sand; And the greenish seaweeds mounding, And with tingling scents surrounding Every wave that comes in pounding
 Heavy secrets to the land. Oh, the falling, falling, falling, Of the shadows half appalling, And the voice of dusk a-calling
 Like a shipwrecked ghost and pale; And the gun from golden walling Flags of crimson downward hauling, Then the hand of night a-shawllng.
 Darkened fringe on every sail.

The WIIIiamees,

R. L. Williams of Richmond and Baltimore, one of the receivers of the Seaboard Air Line, is a brother of John Skelton Williams, who ranks among the foremost fnanciers and railroad developers of the south. The Williamses are conspicuous examples of what brains. integrity and pluck will &C., complish. In speaking of the Williams "boys"-there are several of them, and all of them stand high--an old Virgin ian who has known them for years said:
 T have never come in contact with abler business men than John Skelton Williams and R. L. Williams, but what distinguishes them especially Is their forward in all their dealings and are always actuated by high motives.
 "R. L. Williams and c. B. Ryan, the general passenger agent of the Sea- board Air Line, bear a striking resem- blance to each other. MT. Williams told me recently that when he was on a tour of inspection he was taken for Mir. Ryan at nearly every station along the line. Ryan is somewh al stouter than Williams, but at quick glance personal friends are apt to get them mixed. One rarely meets with such doubles"

Pollteness.

Nearly every one knows the purchas- ing power of dollar, but it is remarkable how few know the purchasing power of politeness." said disciple of Chesterfield. "I suppose it is due to the fact that politeness Is neither taught in the schools nor practiced in the homes.
 If a person will observe the conduct of our young people whether it be on street cars, in churches or in crowded stores, he will find that my words are true. few days ago I was on a High land avenue car when a lady and gem tleman with a little girl, age> about s years, got on. The child's parents took a seat across the aisle from me and she took the seat beside me. Would you like to get next to the window? I asked her, and her answer was, oh. I don't care Well said I, Tine sure neither do l care.' Now that child was nicely dressed. her parents seemed to be fashionable peo- pie, and yet such was her reply to my civility.
 T have stood on the platform of car for miles rather than face the scrowl that 0 young lady would give me if attempt ed to take a seat beside her, although the seats are supposed to accommodate two passengers. A lady will take the end seat in a pew at church and shut out every one who comes after her.
 "Polteness is the mark of lady or gentleman and it's absence is a sure indi- cation of low breeding. It is a proverb that silk purses cannot be made out of sows' ears, and unless child is well raised you can't make lady or gentle man."

The Iron Market.

The local pig iron market is very strong and prices are upward. Matthew Addy &c Co.'S Cincinnati report says:
 From every direction come reports Of increased activity, and a return of old- dropped off during the past week, this was natural after the heavy buying, and the market Is strong and firm in every way, There Is an increasing demand for finished material, and we are advised that in the Chicago district many of the mills have more acquisitions than they can fill promptly.
 Enquiries for iron for next years de- livery are beginning to put In their ap- pearance, but furnaces are not at all anx- ious to quote for shipment this far into the future. The recent buying has not been confined to any particular class of iron. Bessemer, basic and foundry grades have all had their share. Dur ing the past week Bessemer has stiffened up considerably and prices now range from S1550 to $16 in the valley. In the south, where they are usually optimistic, they say now that good times have aotu- ally arrived, and there Is a general air of activity. Iron is being shipped out in liberal quantities, and there is good prospect for a reduction of the stocks on hand. Most of the southern furnaces are asking an advance of 50 cents per ton for fourth quarter delivery. Perhaps the biggest sale reported during the last week was an exceedingly large tonnage which was bought by one of our big harvesting companies"

Birmileham'S October Fair

It is very plain that the officers of the fair association intend, by means of special free attractions, including well equipped circus, to bring to- gether large number of people. Be- tween the racing and the special fea- lures the fair will become popular and successful.
 But to make it useful the cooper ation of the various counties in the state and in fact of every good cit izen is necessary. Unless the counties send here in October county exhibits the fair will not show what Alabama has accomplished this year on her farms and in her shops. Sixty-seven county exhibits would make a great fair indeed, and even exhibits on a liberal scale from a dozen representa- tive counties would be worth going a long distance to see. A county in the Tennessee valley, and one on Sand Mountain, and one in the black belt and one in the canebrake section should certainly be secured, and all the other counties in the state should be invited to show in October what they have produced.
 Cooperation on the part of all pa triotic and intelligent citizens is need ed. and the fair association can be trusted to supplement this with in structive exhibits and wholesome amusements. A great fair may in al reason be anticipated in the glorious October weather.

DINING ROOM OF A CIRCUS.
From Popular Mechanics.

From Popular MechanicS.
 The discipline of army reigns su- preme in circus life, and it is always in- teresting to watch how the thousand or more people of such an organization are fed three meals a day without hitch, and as silently as in a big hotel. The grass serves as a carpet, and the 40 or more walters move quickly in and out. The kitchen tent is completely equipped with pastry ovens, warming ta- bles. steam vats for stewing, steam urns for coffee and tea, boiling ovens and numberless other cooking utensils. Tho force of cooks number Is, including the three which tend the camp fire, at which nothing but soup is prepared. The ranges fold up and are carried in wagons, and the tents are lighted with electricity at night. It Is not unusual to serve as many as 5000 pancakes fer breakfast. and 800 loaves of bread are used each day, in addition to crackers and biscuit. The meat consumed each day is somewhere near 1000 pounds. Such provisions as celery, young onions, strawberries, radishes. melons, etc., are bought in each town, often cleaning out the entire market. An advance agent of the commissary de- partment keeps well in advance of the show, contracting for its supplies, for man and beast.
