Richmond. May 1s.-(special,)-Col. Or lsndo P. Gaut of Birmingham, travelling representative of the shapegh Hardware company of St Louis. died al stuart Cii : cle hospital late today following severe attack of peritonitis. Colonel Gaut was about 50 years old and well known throughout the south and middle west. He was especially prominent in Alabama and was a member of Governor Jelk staff in 1904.
 Miss Jessie Gaut. a sister, is expected to arrive in Richmond this afternoon to accompany the body of her brother to Birmingham.
 Colonel Gaut attended a dinner at Mur- phys hotel Saturday night and lew hours after returning to his room became 1ll He was removed to stuart Circle Hospital about 10 o'clock Sunday morning when it was learned that his condition was critical.
 News of Colonel Gauts death will come as a shock to his many trlends in Alabama. Although out of Birmins- ham a great deal in recent years he always claimed this city as his home, and kept up his membership in the Southern club and other local institu- tions.
 Colonel Gaut was born in Cleveland, Tenn. where his mother still resides. and came to Birmingham more than 2o years ago. He was one of the best ln- formed hardware men in the business and at the time of his death held the position of travelling sales manager Tor A. F. Shapleigh Hardware Co. of St. Louis. He spent much of his time in Richmond, but travelled so much that he usually had all his mail forwarded to him from Birmingham.
 During the time he lived in Birming- ham Colonel Gaut represented the Sim mons Hardware Co. of St Louis snt later the Prowell Hardware Co. He gay, up the hardware business for time ano became associated with the Protective Life Insurance company, but finall, took up the work in which he was en gagged at the time of his death
 Colonel Gaut was always very active in politics. He never sought office fo,
  formed on the trend of policial eventi than he He was appointed by Gov. W D. Jelks as colonel on hls staff
 Although the news of his death vii q. come as shock, it was known that h' had not been in good health during recent months. Sometime ago he un- derwent an operation for appendicitis in Iowa and was at the point of death at that time.
 Colonel Gaut never married. During his residence in Birmingham he lived at the well known bachelors home on Highland avenue. and the men with whom his associations were closest were those who regarded him most highly.
 He was one of the finest characters I ever knew" said ErslSine Ramsay y last night. ''No one will ever know what he did for his mother and younger brothers after the death of his father when Colonel Gaut was youth"

wAsmINGToN.s BIRTHpAY

Washington's birthday would Of
course be more generally and tumui-
taously observed. If ii came at the
height OF the baseball season. As 1t
Is for many years little notice was
taken of il other than los few pa
triotic societies
At present the schools seem 20 be
making more of the public holiday
end very commonly have some suita-
BILE recognition OF this anniversary.
Teachers may well talk to their chill
dren. on the lessons 20 be learned by
every young person from Washing
tons marvellous persistence and cour-
ase.
The difficulties which Washington
had TO confront must have seemed at
the time TO people Of ordinarily good
judgment, as hopelessly appalling. lie
was constantly being defeated by the
vastly superior troops of the mother
country lie constantly faced the dis
affection of his hungry and ragged
and unpaid troops. Political intrigue
in congress and the army threatened
TO undermine his authority and disci-
pline
one can well imagine that " ashing-
tons friends must often have advised
him against the hopelessness of such
an unequal contest They must have
counselled him TO seek the best peace
possible before he ran any further
chance Of being captured and exiled
or executed for treason.
Most people give up their larger
ambitions. after a failure or two, and
Jog along in some regular routine for
the rest of their lives. II is perhaps
the most comfortable way of living
but not satisfying to people who have
ideals.
There are few things in life that
can stand in the way of determined,
persistent attack. 40 matter how
hopeless mans life may seem, it
can scarcely be more hopeless than
was the cause OF Washington and his
patriots in their cruel winter at Valley
Forge.

DISTINCTION WITHOUT DIFFER.
ENCE

We now have it that the bill before
the legislature to abolish Kew Years
day, Lincoln's birthday. Washington's
birthday and Discovery day. as legal
holidays, came from the banks in
stead of the saloons. and the liquor
men are asking relief from the charge
of such lack of patriotism.
We notice. however, that their pa
triOtism does not extend to any pres
ervation of those days as holidays in
such manner as to continue their be-
ing shut off from transacting bust
ness. on the contrary they have a
bill expressly exempting the saloons
from the necessity of closing on all
holidays except July 4th, Decoration
day. Thanksgiving day and Christmas.
In other words they do not object to
other holidays than these as long as
il does not interfere with them.
Indeed, this shows patriotic regard
for Father Time, Lincoln. Washington
and Columbus that we had not con-
templated.

PUBLIC HELP FOR THE POOR.

Increased appropriatios Will be nee
essary this year for the poor relief
and pauper departments of many
cities and towns In one city whose
report comes TO our notice, the Off
ciaIs say that calls for relief have
doubled since January l over the pre-
ceding year Whether this is general
or not there will be many calls for
public help which must be generous
~ met.
1t is one of the fine things about
American life. that no one ever makes
any question of the necessity of lib
eral help TO the poor. If a pauper de-
partment is efficiently administered,
no one thinks OF cutting down its
funds IL is accepted that at all haz-
ards poor people must receive the
help necessary to keep them from suf-
fering.
Ii a person has had misfortune, no
disgrace attaches TO the receiving of
such funds Indeed to ask and re-
ceive this aid sometimes seems more
respecting than practically to beg
for money. by asking people to buy
things they don't want. and would
never take but for the charity motive.
