VIDALIA, GA, Jan. 20.-Report has
reached here of a raid by burglars in
which the hardware store and bank at
UvaIda were entered. Some pistols
and razors were missing from the hard
ware store.
A bag of coin which the robbers car
ried off proved to be pennies--70O of
them-which had not been put in the
vault and which the robbers discarded
after finding what they had taken. The

COUNTESS SZECHENYI.
NEE VANDERBILT, MAY
BE HUNGARY'S QUEEN

BUDAPEST, Jan. 20.-That Countess
Szechenyi, formerly Gladys Vanderbilt,
Of New York, may some day be Queen
of Hungary, was revealed today by dis
patches from Paris to the effect that a
number of Hungarian patriots have
gathered there to secure financial back
ing to place Count SDechenyi upon the
Hungarian throne, should the dual
monarchy break up at the death of EN-
peror, Francis Joseph. The Hungarian
movement to secure Hungary from the
Austrian empire is growing to formula
bic proportions.
Count Szechenyi is spoken of as
possible successor to Hungary's throne
because his grandfather led the revo-
luton for Hungarian freedom. The
revolution failed and the leader was put
to death, although his memory has been
revered ever since by Hungarian pa
triots.
The Countess Shotek. moreanatic

heir to the throne of Austria, may never
become queen, though her husband
ruled the empire
On the other hand. should Count SEE
chenyl ever become king of Hungary
Gladys Vanderbilt would have to be
recognized as the queen, as she is not
the n1organatic wife of the count.
1t is understood that American cant
tai was sought to finance the enterprise
or putting Count Szechenyi on the Hun
sarian throne.

The Steely Stare

"Souelch the masher with a look.
You don't need a whistle, like the
Boston women; hat pins do not make
good weapons, and club should be
used only in a tight squeeze" This is
the advice of Officer Mary Boyd and
Officer Emma NeullSom of the Chi
cago police force. They have found the
recipe infallible, they declare. Heav-
ems! Who would try to flirt with a
policewoman?
More probably it was the badge of
brass or the contour of counteance
worn by the esteemed lady police of
Chicago, rather than the wide-eyed
look that skidooed the "snooper." The
good looking girl might find it some
what trying to attempt to outstare the
average street corner loafer. The ad-
vice, however, comes. from good
source. Birmingham maidens are at
perfect liberty to try it, should they
feel so inclined. And the police re-
porter would find it amusing to begin
his story with:
She holds him with her giittering eye:-
The masher stands stock still,
And listens like three years child:
The sweet girl hath her will.

Mr.. Samuel Wallin is congressman
from the Thirteenth district Of New
York. His home is at Amsterdam, and
he is a partner in the firm of Nc
cleary, Wallin & Grouse, two mil
lion dollar concern which manufac-
lures carpets and rugs.
When the Underwood bill was pend
Ing in the House Mr.. Wallin strongly
opposed its passage. He was especial
Nv antagonistic to Schedule X, dealing
with wool and its manufactures. He
predicted direful results If the rates
ON wool were not increased and pro-
fessed belief in lamentable eonse-
Ruuences to many industries if his ad-
vice was not needed.
Now comes news that the firm of
McCleary, Wallin & Grouse will short
ly double its capitalization by issuing
100000 new bonds. The money re-
allied will be used for the improve
ment of the plant, including the erec-
ton of new buildings and the installa-
ton of additional machinery. The in
creased production will be about 80
per cent. The company now has 1000
employees on its pay rolls, and this
number will be raised.
Be not so uncharitable as to accuse
Mr.. Wallin of insincerity. 1t is possi-
BILE that his partners have decided
upon these steps over his vigorous
protests.

The Anti-Fly Campaign

This summer flies have been scarce1
in Birmingham than ever before. The
systematic campaign waged for sew
eral seasons against the pest has at
tanned remarkably good results. The
public has been taught that the musca
domestica, or ordinary house fly, is
the bearer of disease germs, and that
his determination will make for health
as we'll as comfort.
1t is no time to '1et up in the
war against the fly. Much has been
accomplished, but much yet remains
to be done. The fly can be totally ex-
terminated if the fight is kept up. In
some places in England flies are un-
known and have not been known for
years, and this is because the people
were determined to be free from them
and never Jagged in the swatting.
There is no living creature more
filthy than the fly. He fits from sta
BILE to dining table and never washes
his feet. He is a source of absolute
danger, as well as an annoying and
nauseating visitor. Swat the fly. Eter-
nal warfare is the price of peace.

Imnortance of Wording

Legislative bodies enact laws, but
in many instances, if not most Of
them when important issues are in
volved, courts have to construe the
meaning of the acts. This has been
so from early times in the history of
the republic of the United States, but
in recent years, the laws open to
various construction have multiplied.
1t is common thing for an important
law to be misunderstood. Many laws
in Alabama are hazy. Many statutes
of the Congress of the United States
are open to more than one construc-
ton.
Right now an acute situation is
engaging the attention of this coun-
try. 1t relates to the matter of filling
vacancy in the Senate caused by
the death of Joseph F1Johnston, Ala
bama's junior senator. Under the
seventeenth amendment to the consti-
tuition United States senators are
elected by the direct vote of the peo-
pie. But no provision has been made by
the legislature of this state for sena-
torial elections.
| Under this seventeenth amendment
to the constitution changing the
mode of electing United States
senators, can the governor of a
state order writs of election to fill
a vacancy unless the legislature has
first taken action? That is a most i'm
portant question in the present
emergency. The consensus of opinion
seems to be that the governor of
Alabama will have to call an extra
session Of the legislature and leave
all details of calling an election to
the lawmakers. Some lawyers hold
various views. But why is it that
laws are not expressed in Ian
guage clear enough to be understood
and applied without Interpretation by
the courts? There should be no room
for quibbling.
More attention should be paid to
the value of wording. If such
had been the case when the
seventeenth amendment resolution
was adopted and submitted to the
states for ratification the country
would not now be confused and in
doubt.

Another waiter brings your coffee, or min

likewise your serving waiter and your
water waiter. In other words, you must
tip three walters for each and every

pay walters even pay for their privi-

So in the hotels-one must tip covey

The Presidents Patience

War with Mexico should be and
will be averted if possible.
A united country would be behind
President Wilson should he decide to
re-establish peace in Mexico by heroic
measures. Huerta's insolence has
grated upon the people of this nation.
There is no sympathy for the man who
holds the reins of power by employ
ment of the assassin's bullet.
The President probably would add
20 his prestige in some quarters if he
should send American troops across
the Rio Grande. Patriotism was never
at higher tide than it is today in the
United States. The use of war-like
means to humble Huerta would prob
ably eliminate faction. The country
would uphold the executive enthusi-
astically and unitedly.
The President knows all this, yet he
hesitates to call into play the vast
powers at his command. He prefers
to bring about peace by peacable
methods. The temptation to pose as
a great war President is strong one
but he is resisting it nobly. 1t would
be no easy matter to conquer Mexico
The topography of the country and the
ease with which guerilla bands may

Aristophanes, as the prototype of fem

ant of that distinction. far antedating
the Mrs. Pankhurst of the fifth CEN
tury B. C.-harking back, indeed, to
the creation.
| The Bible, 1t will be remembered,
contains two different accounts of the
creation of woman. Genesis /. records
the simultaneous creation of man and
| woman out of the dust of the ground;
while Genesis II. says that Adam was
alone in the garden, and that Eve
was formed out of one of Adams ribs
and given him as a helpmeet. True,
theologians have attempted to reconcile
these contradictory accounts by re-
| ferring them to one and the same wom-
an, arguing rather sophistically that
inasmuch as Adam was made out of
dust, Eve, having had her immediate
origin from his rib. might be justly re-
garded as having been shaped from
dust. too
Such an Interpretation is unneces-
sary IL we accept the Arabian and Jew

wife. She. like her husband, had been
made from dust. and on the ground of
their common origin, she insisted upon
full equality with him. When Adam
refused to accord her the considera-
ton to which she felt herself entitled,
Iilith, with the help of the Ineffable
Name, which she pronounced, flew away

| When Adam complained to God that
his wife had deserted him, God sent out
three angels to bring her back They
| found her in the Red Sea and, when she
| refused to obey the commands of the
Almighty and return to her lord and
| master. they threatened her with the
| loss of 100 of her demon children daily
by death. But the tameless Lilith pre-
ferred this punishment to life of sub
lection to Adam; so she still haunts the
night as specter, and is especially
hostile to newborn infants. The Tai
mudic writers make no mention of
prime ministers and pillar post boxes.

Politica and Politica

when a man holding an official Of
fee dies. it is customary and right for as
pirants to the vacant place to wait until
the deceased is laid to rest, but In some
cases the political situation is SO acute
that certain nice points Of decorum are
laid aside,' said an old politician. "The
whole state of Alabama laments the death
of Senator Joseph F. Johnston, but who
will be his successor IS being asked, and
much political stir is now in evidence.
Congressman Tom Heflin will be a candi-
guess that he will be elected. He has the
physical strength to make a whrlwind
canvass. Not only that, he has the power
of ridicule in a most telling way. And
after all ridicule against vulnerable can
didate-and most candidates are vulner-
able-is wonderful effective. Heflin could
come very near knocking out any politi-
clan by his satire and ridicule.
Here in Birmingham we are approach

of a president of the commission. George

few other candidates. In fact, there is
only one other candidate, if am correctly
