TILE POOR .DYspEprIc.

A man ounce dreamed a joyous dream
And one that seemed SURPRISING sweet;
He thought he dined in bright lights
CLEAN
And ate whate'er he wished to eat;
Also he drank most all the time,
Without the fear his head would ache,
But just when he was feeling prime,
He sighed and found himself awake.

WIN Re a strong senator

sThe democratic party and tn state Oh
Illinois are to be congratulated on the
election of James Hamilton L'wis to the
Emitted States Senate" said an old eem-
ocrat who was at one time prominent in
the councils of his party
81 remember Lewis when he was n
member of the Fffty-ifth Co gress and
I became well acquainted with him in 1898,
when he was a colonel OF volunteers On
the staff of Gen. Fred Grant, in the
Spanish-American war. l found him a
most agreeable gentleman. He was quick
witted. social Bile and full of dash.
Lewis enjoys the reputation of being
an excellent lawyer. He always had
turn for politics and has been holding a
legislative, office somewhere almost from
the time he was admitted to the bar in
1891. He was born at Danville, Va, IN
1866 When youth he removed to Au-
sLsta, Ga. and was ecucated at Hough-
ton college and the University II Viz
ginia: studied law at Savannah and mar
ried a Miss Douglass of Georgia.
In 1886 Lewis lOtdltu III cedteic, w aoA.,
He was elected to the territorial sem

in 1890; was candidate for governor of
Washington in 1892: was nominated for
the United States Senate m 1894; was an
asrirant for the vice presidential nomina-
tion in 1896, and was elected Congress
that year as representative rom WASH
rgton at large. He was 'he caucus NOM
inee for United States senator in 1899.
Lewis was the author of the resolu-
ton in Congress in 1897 for the recognition
of Cuban independence. He removed to
Chicago in 1903. He had been living there
only two years when he was ap-
pointed corporation counsel for the city

BirminghaIn's Expansion

II was in Birmingham for the first time
in 1885, and as l recall it then, it was a
bustling place with great deal of real
estate boom talk" said George w. Mid
dleton of Philadelphia. There wasn't
much of city in sight, but the minerals
were here and there was vast optimism.
that first visit, and I literally did not rec
ognize the place. l had kept up with
the city in a general way by reading.
remember the census figures of 19l0-near-
ly 133,O ,O0O, as against 3S 900 in 1900. The per-
centage of growth was phenomenal. Even
allowing for the fact that much outside
territory has been annexed ,ne actual
growth, as well as the apparent growth
was greater than that of any other city of
approximately Birminghams size. No
city, believe, of the 100000 class had any
thing like such large increase, for l
am told that the territory annexed added
to the territory of the city proper the
actual increase of population in the ter
ritory now embraced in the city of Bir-
mingham was considerably over 100 per
cent. The census increase was 245 per
cent.
I'm 1885 Birmingham seemed poorly
built. 1t was a very young town at that
time and visitor had no right to ex-
pect much of a city. 1t is a very large
and handsome city today.
zone sees many evidences of progress
on every hand. Not only in the business
district and in the fashionable residence
sections are there signs of prosperity and
wealth. but in the outlying districts thrlit
is manifest. l notice from the govern
mcnt statistics that Birmingham has an
area of 80 square miles. That would be a
large area for a city of 100000 or 100000,
but Birmingham will soon fill up, and
by the time the next census is taken its
population will probably reach 100000.
And by that time the city limits will be
further extended no doubt
