Views Of the Tango

Venerable captains of industry who
can figure interest without the as
stance of pencil and paper, are pay
g fabulous sums in return for tango
ssons.
This illustrates in part the extent
which the tango craze has taken
Did on the popular mind. But only
part. The most unusual illustration
presented in the fact that the Bap-
st church of Brewton, a prosperous
labama city has requested the po-
ce department to arrest any individ-
al who within the borders of that
municipality dances or attempts to
dance the tango.
The view of the Baptist church of
Brewton is one view. Another is that
of Rabbi Niesto of San Francisco, who
in speaking of the tango craze, de-
clared that what we need in America
is less theology and more common
sense.
Another view is that of DR.. Frank
Crane, who writes:
"One can dance quite as NOR
ally, as temperately, as self-re-
spectingly as he can dine or sleiGh
ride. Dancing is no more moral
or immoral than pussy-wants-
corner or he-handkerchef.
1t is not the thunders of the puri-
tanial moralist that dancing
needs; it is the spirit of the gen
tleman and gentlewoman."
The Baptist church of Brewton evi-
IDENTIFY believes that it can best incul-
ate the spirit of the gentleman and
gentlewoman by appealing to the po-
lice. Rabbi Niesto and DR.. Crane, it
is evident, believe that that spirit can
be more certainly inspired through the
operation of common sense.

real or imaginary, may present
it personally to the governor-to-
be, and he accords it his individual
consideration. Be it woman with a
baby who wants her smoking chimney
remedied or an engineer who feels that
his labors have been insufficiently
compensated, all have the coloneps ear
and all quit the conference with a
smiling face.
Every employe believes that his or
her life story elicits the personal in
terest of the man under whom they
are serving; all are buoyant with en-
thusiasm, all bubbling with restless
energy and all inspired with the spirit
of achievement.
Colonel Goethals is just the man
for the governorship of the zone and
President Wilson was just the man to
discover him.

Court Directory in Courthouse

Il should like to offer suggestion to
the board of revenue that | think would
prove Of great benefit to the people who
are summoned to attend the various
courts of the county, said a member of
one of the juries serving this week
MY suggestion is that the board haye
a directory painted with the names Of
the various courts on it and placed on the
side of each of the two elevators now
in use. Since the opening of the new
addition there has been more or less
trouble in locating the sevaral courts. OF
course the regular attendants have no
trouble in finding the courts, but every
day persons come to court who probably
have never been in court before, and these
people find it very difficult to locate
the place they are to report. Much OF
this confusion could in my opinion be
remied by placing a sign board on each
elevator with the names of the courts
and other county offices on it."

SHIRTS GROWN ON TREES

From the New York Times.
1t Is comforting, at least, to know that
the sad Song of the Shirt" does not ap-
ply to all parts of the world In the for
ests of Oronoko, situated on the slope of
New Granada, nature has provided what
serves as a ready made shirt for the ma
tives. 1t is obtained from the marina
tree a species of tropical palm, which has
a thin, fibrous red bark. When a native
wants a shirt he simply cuts a piece of
one of these trees about Is inches in di-
ameter and takes off the bark manag-
ing so as not to cut it in any way, and
thus obtains a hollow cylinder of hexi-
BILE bark, some what resembling d rough
sack without any bottom. He then makes
small slit in each side for his arms
to go through and puts it on 1t is only
during the rainy esason, however, that
natives conform to the requirements of
civilization sufficiently to wear garments
of any description.

Pitying the Political Blind

The wise man does not lose his head
in politics. 1t is, therefore, unneces-
sary to state that he is able to per-
ceive humor in situations the pro-
ducers of which desire to be regarded
seriously.
For instance, the esteemed Hunts
vile Times, the editor Of which is we'll
known in Alabama, and especially in
the Eighth district, has written:
Honorable Oscar w. Under
wood is beaten to a frazzle. The
main plank in his reactionary
platform is completely knocked
out in the fact that cotton bag
ging and ties are on the duty
list. This is proved by the rec
ord"
OF course, every well informed man
in Alabama knows that cotton bagging
and ties are on the free list. Every
man in Alabama save those who are
deaf to the extent of not desiring to
hear, save those who are uniformed
to the extent of desiring no knowledge,
knows that cotton bagging and ties
are admitted at the present time with
out duty, and have been since the
passage of the Underwood tariff bill i,
October 3.
In view of the conflict in the state
ment of the Times, that cotton bag
ging and ties are on the duty list,
and the statement of c. S. Hamlin,
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury,
that cotton bagging and ties are being
admitted at the present without duty,
there is no individual of "such vinegar
aspect" as to refrain from Showing
his teeth in way of SMILE" 1t re-
quires no nespor to tell us that the
jest is laughable.
1t is to be regretted that venom has
been displayed by the partisans of
Captain Hobson. 1t is to be regretted
that in their effort to achieve the
nomination of Captain Hobson-a
helpless, hopeless effort-they are
willing to damn the character of the
greatest statesman the south has pro-
duced in SO years, and the man who,
beyond all question, is Alabamas S
greatest asset.
1t is to be regretted Inasmuch as
nothing can be accomplished by in
vective or vituperation, wise men will
continue to smile-and to pity.

WASHING DAY IN SICILY

From the February Wide World Maga-
zine.
The Sicilians have the reputation of not
washing themselves over-frequently, but
If they are remiss In this respect they
more than make up for it by washing
their garments, washing, in fact, being
a perennial occupation among the women
The songs of the women-folk as they
scrub the clothes of their husbands and
children outside the doors of their homes,
il living in a city, or in some brook or
running stream If living in the country
are a noticeable feature of lower-class
Sicilian life. The long spikes on the
prickly pear leaves and aloe plants make
splendid natural pegs on which to dry
the clothes, and in all the rural districts
you will see them thus utilized, but if
they do not happen to be sufficiently
handy the clothes are often stretched
out upon the mountainsioe to dry. The
occupation and recreation of most of the
poorer women may be summed up in three
words-wa shing and gossip.

HELP MOBILE

From the Montgomery Times.
The city of Mobile is our only seaport
and every citizen of Alabama should feel
pride in any movement to advance the
Improvement and progress of that city.
Mobile has for long time suffered from
discrimination and for the lack of some
one to look especially after her interests.
1t is now proposed to put one of its
leading and most popular, able and we'll
equipped citizens, Mr. s. p. Gaillard upon
the railroad commission to do great
work for all of Alabama, and especially
for the great and only seaport of which
the state can boast
The railroad commission feels the need
of men of ability and force who will bring
it up to what was intended of 1.-THE
main spring of the business prosperity of
our state.

GREAT TRIALS OF HISTORY
THE TRIAL OF EUGENE ARAM

dence it is not improbable to supposd
that Clark's death was previously con'
certed between them and that their end
in perpetrating it was to make themI
selves entirely masters of all the goodj
in Clark's possession.
Aram at the trial asked HousemaII
how he could be so positive as to sweaI
that he saw him strike Clark, when Ia
himself admitted that it was done AL
night, in the depth of winter, wheel
everybody knows the nights are dark
To this Houseman answered that though
this was done in the night, vet thj
moon was then up, and that it was lighI
enough to distinguish objects at shor'
distance, though not very distinctly, and
that he could see by the motion oil
Aram's hand that he was stTking Clark
though he could not perceive the weapoi!
with which he struck him.
When asked by the court whether nd
had any witnesses or whether he had
anything to offer in his own defensl
Aram answered \that it was impossible
for him, after so long an interval a had
passed since the commission of the facI
with which he was charged, to producd
any witnesses in his justification: tina 1
those who could have been of use to hinI
in his present embarra ssing situation
were dead or so dispersed about the kinsI
dom that he knew not where to find
them.
Aram said he hoped the court would
consider that all the evidence agains
him was no more than eircumstantialI
except that of 1Iouseman, who. it plainlAl
appeared, was an accessory to the faetI
though he had been aequitted and thereI
fore submitted it to the court whethei
his evidence ought to be of any weight
with the jury
The jury found Aram guilty. Aram'
defense, which he read before the COURT
is often printed as an unusual examplj
of paper of this kind being in mucf]
better language than is often heard undel
criminal prosecutions Being returned
to the prison he could not be prevailed
upon to make any other confession tharI
that he justly deserved the punishment
the law had pronounced against him|
And in the morning of execution, theI
keeper going to his cell to bring him outI
found him almost expiring. having with 4
razor cut his left arm above the elbow
by which means he had lost so much
blood that he was very weak. Aram hat
tried to prove his innocence by technica
strategy, and every trick known to thu
lawyers was resorted to to save AramI
but all in vain. He was executed and
his body carried to Knaresborough For
est. where it was hung in chains, iI|
that part nearest to the town.
