As Young As One Feels

The youth who attempted to arouse
a flirtatious feeling in the breast of a
Chicago policewoman was discharged
by magistrate with an injunction to
eschew all intoxicants in future A
story that comes from Milwaukee is
different in its details, and mayhap
in it's moral.
Dressed in short skirts and giggling
like school girls, three women began
flirting with two men who happened to
be deputy sheriffs, and who decided
it would be good thing to let the
district court have knowledge of the
females unusual giddiness. The wom-
en- said they were Paulina Dukowski,
go years old; Paulina Jessewiski, So,
and Alvina Spotek, "a.
"They seem to imagine they are
charming young girl" one of the
deputies told the court. "They have
been trying to flirt with every mar
they saw"
The Paulinas and Alvina are ole
enough to know better. But had they
been charming young girls, would they
have been arrested?

The Lobby Investigation

> Through the sulphurous smoke oil
vituperation and recrimlnatlon sur
rounding the Mulhall inquiry one fact
Is apparent So far not one of the
42O0 letters turned over to the Sen
ate committee by the agent of the Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers
has been impeached.
Mulhall bamboozled his employers;
In his correspondence he detailed con-
versations that never occurred; he
pretended intimacy with Congressman
he had never met; he professed an in
fluence that he never welded. But
just as true as all these things are
true is the fact that he was in the
capital for the purpose of bending leg
islation to the desire of the manufac-
turers, and they had implicit faith
in the belief that he was serving them
well.
McDermott and Watson are sadly
bespattered by the dirty evidence that
has been heard The names of many
others have been mentioned, but for
the most part Mulhall's dealings with
them occurred only in his imagination.
The appearance upon the witness
stand of James A. Emery has proven
most unfortunate to himself. Emery,
attorney for the National Association
of Manufacturers, testified flatly that
-t,ae had nothing to do with the employ
ment of James E. Watson to work for
the establishment of tariff commits
sion." Confronted by Senator Reed
with letters establishing absolutely
the fact that Emery was present and
was thoroughly familiar with the en-
tire transaction, the witness could only
squirm in his chair and humble 81 was

Rules for the Cup Races

4 The Royal Ulster and New York

The State Fair

Birmingham State Fair next
month will be the greatest yet held in
Alabama. When the fairs were held
at Smiths park some years ago they
were ereditable but they were small,
indeed, compared with the fairs leid
at the fair grounds at Fairview in re-
cent years.
One trouble with the fairs held
years ago was that the management
was always late in getting ready.
When Mr.. Holcombe ',ss president of
the Fair association he started in the
spring to arrange for the exhibits and
the amusements. President Burton
pursues the same policy. He started
little earlier than usual this year,
and before the summer was well ad-
vanced he had practically everything
arranged for.
The agricultural exhibits will be
larger and more varied next month
than in any previous year. The wom-
ans department will be much more ex-
tensive than ever and many other
features will surpass those of 1912,
and the fair then was the best, per-
haps, up to that time.
All indications point to record
breaking crowd in attendance. The
people of Alabama like to come to
Birmingham. They come in increasing
numbers year by year. October is
the great shopping month for out of
town folks and Birmingham will
present wonderfully gala appear
ance from the 9th to the 18th of the
month.

Mistakes of the Militants

Viscount Haldane, lord high chan
cellor of England, and himself be-
lever in equal suffrage, says Great
Britain is far from ready to confer
the ballot upon women. The cause
over there has shown retrogression in
the last few years, he thinks, and this
is attributable to the eXcesses IF the
militants of the Pankhurst kind.
Equal suffrage is not party ques
tion in England. Several members of
the present cabinet favor "votes for
women" and there are advocates of
the cause to be found in the ranks of
the unionists. But cabinet which
could agree on a bill extending the
ballot to women, as Lord Haldane
points out, could agree on no other
governmental measure, and chaos
would be the result of such ministry.
Right now there is an unusual and
suspicious quietude among the mill
tants. This may be due to the fact
that their recognized leader, Mrs.
Emmeline Pankhurst, temporarily is
residing on the continent, but other ex-
plantations of the calm also are being
offered. Some profess to believe that
the militants have been forced to rec
ognize that their tactics are hurting
rather than helping the movement,
and for this reason they have laid
aside the hatchet, the sulphur match
and the dynamite. Others think that
the suffragette leaders have counselcJ
truce as the result of promises of
members of the Asquith cabinet that
an equal suffrage bill will be prescrted
to the commons within the next few
months.
Whatever the reason of the ouies
cence, it comes as a relief to the hec-
tored and harassed leaders of govern
ment. 1t cannot be a calm preceding
storm of greater violence thar has
yet swept the nation. Ingenuity could
not invent deeds more sinister or ron
sensical than those already resorted
to by the suffragettes.

From the Electrical World.
DIR. Louis Bell, correspondent for the
Electrical World describes In that paper
the progress that has been made in street
lighting in London. The lighting OF
London has changed wonderfully in few
years and in remarkable ways Part OF
the metropolis is carnival Of press gas,
another part a symphony in rame ares.
and as for tie rest-well. if there is any
coordination between sound and light.
then the streets of London remind one of
the state of Babel after the grand eatas-
trophe. Yet one must admit that, though
the kinds are many, each after its paric-
llar failures is good. The chief streets
of London are, in fact remarkably wc.l
l'Shted, and even the secondary streets
rather better than in America. Ths ter
tiary lighting is not so good. however.
One good stretch of street is lighted
with high candlepower Tungsten lamps,
three grouped in single lantern and re-
placing big arc lamp with admirable cf-
| feet. Beside all these the old carbon
lamps, of which some still survive, seem
| about as luminous as white beams. TIC
| Il the electric ones. Pressures are CARR Il
up to even 81 in. of water, and with, of
course, corresponding economy in gas.
The most interesting thing, however, is
the carrying of these powerful gas lamps
on cross suspension. The pipe from the
/ side is a solid one to which the lamp,
! carried on a trolley from the Suspension,
if affixed by an automatic connector so
that the lamp may sbe droppel cut OF
connection and trollied to the sidewalk
for inspection and repair
Tungsten lamps are seen everywhere,
operated mostly at 220 volts, as fits the
major part of the distribution systems.
They come from all the corners of the
continent, benevolently dumped perhaps
or the English market. OF course, the
best of English lamps are excalent but
the situation in London shows at least
one of the possible results of too much
competition.

ADEsERyED RERUKE

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
A fat woman with a family umbrella
obstructed the view of lot of people at
a sham battle in Columbus, and the Ohio
State journal comments in this spirited
fashion on her absolute refusal to take
down the obstruction:
Really it would have been unlawful to
snatch that umbrella from her hand, but
there would have been certain justice In
it. She had no right to occupy a portion
of the air so that the view OF others was
cut off. She had no more right to do
this than she would have to go in your
garden and carry off mess of corn or TO-
matoes. The right of man to the air
view, the air pure, the air quiet, is as
absolute as he has to the stove in his
kitchen or the apples in his orchard. lg-
norance doesn't see this, and so ignorance
is the seat of much of the meanness Of
the world"
OF course the editor is absolutely right,
but II there isn't a fat woman with an
umbrella camping on his doorstep long
before this, lot of readers Will be as
tonished.

Improvement. Noted by visitor.

When I visited Birmingham three years
ago I was greatly impressed with the
solid improvements that were in prog
ress and with the metropolitan style of the
city, said L. c. Seton of Philadelphia.

since then.

by McGraw in the spring of 1902 when
McGraw was pilot of the Baltimore team

rather crude. Under onesend of the old
