The Blind Oraanist.

Most music lovers who have visited Washington, D. C., embraced the oppor tunity of hearing the late Dr. John w. Bischoff, the famous blind organist at the First Congregational church, said q musi- cian "He was the greatest organ per- former Washington ever heard. He died some weeks ago and this extract from a sketch found in a musical journal will be read with interest:
 " Dr. Bischoff had been blind since he was years old, when a serious illness was followed by loss of sight. His musi- cal training, begun in the Wisconsin h. stitute for the Blind was of the highest order and he excelled not only as organ ist but a teacher of singing. He played the piano with the same skill with which he presided at the organ, but it was in the mastery of the greatest of all me chanical instruments, the church organ, that he excelled. He was a composer of note and his songs undoubtedly will have a rt,w vogue.
 Ut was in the difficult field of &C., compartment that Dr. Bischoff most finely exhibited his exquisite musical sense. The true accompanst is born, not made; and Dr. Bischoff added to the refnements of a Irare musical nature a subtle sixth sense of appreciation that contemplated the work of singer and accompanist as a musical whole and not the performance of one person. The organ in his hands was an instrument of such marvellous fiexiblity that it appeared to have no me- chanical limitations. It took on more the expressiveness of the violin or-it is almost musical sacrilege to say so-the human voice. One forgot in hearing Dr. Bischoff play that stops and knee swells were part of the equipment of the performer, for the instrument obeyed his thought as if be, and not tubes and reeds, were sing ing"

entire cotton year. All baled cotton and linters are to be reported on the dates named regardless of the year or the locality of growth.
 These reports of stocks were author ized by Congress, their object being to reduce the element of speculation in cotton. It is hoped that the com ing statistics will remove many a doubt, affording, as they will, informa- tion for all concerned. The agents act under oath, and the census bureau will endeavor to keep all information secret until it is consolidated and ready for publication.
 Useful as the ginning reports have been the reports of cotton stocks will be still more so. and between the two the estimates of the department of agriculture and of Tom, Dick and Harry will lose their importance dur ing the ginning season, whatever value they may have during the season of growth.

Senator Reynolds Disclosures

Senator Reynolds of Bibb in speech on compulsory education contrasted Jefferson and Lowndes counties so far as the distribution of the education fund of the state is concerned. Jef- ferson has 22,290 white and 12,125 colored school children, and 1t re- ceived from the state in the past fiscal year sS6.O37. Lowndes has 1512 white and 16,o73 colored children, and it drew from the state school fund $43,963.
 Whether Lowndes has unduly swelled it's enumeration of colored children is not an issue at present. The use of the school moneys assigned to the two counties Is the point raised by Senator Reynolds. Jefferson con- fessedly expends the school moneys al 1otted to 1t with reasonable fairness so far as the races are concerned. What is done in Lowndes? "Prac- tically," says Senator Reynolds, "all the money goes for the education of the whites in Lowndes. In other words, nearly $50 year of the money is spent on each white child of the coun- ty. In a county like Jefferson or Bibb not more than B per capita of this fund can go for the education of white children because we do not get the advantage derived from having so many negroes. A child in Lowndes county gets 10 times as much as a white child in Jefferson from the state fund. Some of the black belt coun- ties actually have more than they can spend. I know of cases where the re- turns from this fund have been used to send children of the county away to college. I believe a solution of the matter lies in passing the education fund distribution on the average at- tendance in the schools rather than on population. The white children on the whole attend the schools while the negroes do not. I have accord ingly introdu6ed the measure in the

IN HOTEL LOBBlES
Over in Georgia.

'The Georgia legislature came very near passing a bill imposing a heavy tax on foreign corporations" said for mer citizen of Atlanta.
 Tt looked at one time as if the bill would certainly pass and when l was in Atlanta while the measure was un- der discussion public-spirited business men felt mortified to think that any serious effort should be made to put an unreasonable burden on large indus tries-the very things that make the pay rolls. Georgia was for a long time point cd to by northern men as the most pro- gressive state in the south, but when drastic legislation got to be a habit the best interests of the state-urban and rural-got a dicided setback Sane ideas are beginning to be in the ascendency again, and while much freak legislation vas proposed this summer comparatively little of 1t was adopted.
 One of the significant things the Georgia legislature did was to put stiff tax on near beer--both wholesale and retail. This tax will raise a large revenue for the state, but twoyears hence even more revenue will be needed and the prohibition law is almost sure to be greatly modified or repealed. The senti ment in the country districts as well as in the cities is gradually changing in favor of local option as against stat utory prohibition"

SUNDAY IN BLACK FOREST.

From "9 Black Forest Pathway by
 Frederick Van %euren, Jr., in Scribners
 Sunday morning is of all times the best to leave the Valley of Friars Brook. In the first place the church bell insists upon early rising, and second. you are sure to see all the people worth seeing on their way to answer it's call. By twos and threes and fours. singly and in large fam fly groups, they are early on the way with courteous hat raisings and bows and friendly guttural "guten Tags" The women are bare-armed and bare-necked, with short skirt of red or blue or black, white stockings, blouse and kerchief, bright bodice, laced in front, and wide straw hats with red crowns which con- trast we'll with their dark hair. The little girls are miniatures of their mothers. with black-ribboned braids down their backs. Nor are the women alone in their pie turesqueness, for the men have added red waistcoats and red facings to their Sun day frock coats, and fiat felt hats with wide brims give proper air of sobriety to their ruEged facea.

USEFUL AUToMOBILES.
he Washington Herald

From the Washington Herald
 Automobiles are being used for about everything these days by ingenious own ers" said J. H. Banks of Portland, Me, at the New Willard.
 "They are being used to saw cord wood. drive printing presses, and carry money in a Wall street panic, but its possibilities are not yet exhausted, ap- parently. Roy Faye a couple of years ago converted his car into travelling camp for hunting in the Maine woods MT. Faye is a Boston autoist. He built an extension top of heavy waterproof canvas and fitted up the rear end of the interior with hunks for sleeping quar- ters at night Along the inside of the tonneau and canopy were arranged hooks on which to hang clothes and hunting necessities.
 "The berths in the car were adjusted by widening their hangers four inches This made 1t possible to keep the beds made up. ready to be dropped into place when needed. The blankets were con- verted into semi-sleeping bags, that fold. ed up with the pneumatic mattresses in such a manner that they fell easily into place when the berths were lowered. A large canvas tent was taken along, which could be attached to the car, and gave additional quarters making the whole as spacious a camp as any built for per- manent use. The provisions were packed in chests In the body of the car, each chest having many compartments. Fold ing tables, cooking utensils arranged in nests for more convenient transporta- tion, and other things added to the com fort of camping expeditions"

against any one of a dozen writers of plays who have won smaller measures of financial success. Yet pen cannot dis lore nor time wither his laurels as A manufacturer of shows" that are what the people want. The critics. and that part of the public which differs with the majority of seat-buyers as to the merit of MT. Conan as a playwright, and as to the excellent of the leg work and head work of Mr. Conan and his Royal Family may take consolation from the statement of the late Henrik Ibsen that the minority is always right and the majority always wrong. They are pow erless to defect the stream of gold from the pockets of the premier purveyor of noise and mad gayety to a public that knows what 1t wants and blanks down its dollars when the commodity offered is up to the mark.
 Some critics of the drama should. of course be doing monologue turns, upon the vaudeville stage to get their hu- morous sayings out of their systems: others should be shelved because they see nothing good in their day and gen eration. Still others-those whom the manager in his shortsightedness loves and honors and delights to subsidize- should be honest press agents instead Of crooked critics. But the managerial eye should not be so jaundiced as 1t is. The plays the thing When it suits the public the public buys it, and if it is good of its kind 1t finds a public that likes the kind, no matter whether it is a reverberating Cohan comedy or some- thing with less volume of sound by Sheridan-an immortal tragedy by Shakespeare or an interminable mono logue by Bernard Shaw Criticism rare- ly = Ills merit, and press agentry, parad- ing as criticism, rarely serves to put props under mediocrity.

The Iron Market,

The pig iron market for the first half of 1910 delivery will probably start off at $14 on a No. basis. It will hardly start at any lower quotation because northern irons have already been sold In the northwest for next years delivery at prices equivalent to a s14 schedule in Birmingham.
 The market is very strong. It has hardened at $1s.50 for No. 2, and sales are being made at even higher prices. One sale of 800 tons of Mo- 1 soft was made yesterday at s14.50, which would mean on a basis of $14 for No. 9. While there have been active inquiries for 1910 delivery investigation fails to disclose any company has made a sale. Most of the furnace interests here are out of the market for 1909. but those that are out will probably be in wh en buyers are willing to sustain a $14 sch edule

Prohibition and the Constitution

Not content with all manner of in- tolerable statutory laws the Alabama legislature has decided to submit to the voters of the state an amendment to the constitution seeking to make prohibition a part of the organic law
 Statutory prohibition has been in ef- feet in the greater part of Alabama since January l, 1908, and in every county of the state since January 1, 1909, and it has been a failure so far as it has related to the large cities and the mining camps.
 With the more drastic laws just adopted or to be adopted by the pres- ent legislature in effect it may be diff ferent. For a time at least prohibit tion will probably appear to prohibit Tn the various sections of the state. But while the laws are soon to have a practical test, the whole scheme of prohibition politics will be only an experiment after all, and it is there- fore wrong to attempt to wedge this measure into the constitution 90 days after the adjournment of the legisla- ture-before it can possibly be ascer- tained whether or not the new ma- chinery will work.
 Had the time been set for the reg ular election in 1910 the state would have been saved heavy expense and the business interests of the state spared the blighting effect of political turmoil just on the eve of a new era of prosperity. As it is we are to be face to face with one of the bitterest and most disquieting campaigns of re- cent years just at 8 time when peace and industrial development would be most welcome and most helpful to the people of Alabama.
 But if the contest must come thus soon men who are opposed to prohi- bition and all those who do not like the idea of being ruled by tyrants be- cause they still feel themselves free men, will be ready. The question of statewide prohibition has never yet been submitted to the people. Calm and thoughtful persons believe that the prohibition legislators have as- sumed without good warrant that a majority of the voters would approve of their action. Be this as it may all men in Alabama qualified to use the ballot will have an opportunity of expressing themselves at the polls. The Age-Herald Is glad to think that Alabama will vote right and declare against constitutional prohibition.
