HARD THING is TO "RETURN'
Many VIII Understand the Trials Of
Congressman in Taking Up His
Old Profession.

In the American Magazine is an in
terview with a member of the United
States house of representative, who
tells of the almost impossible barriers
between him and his old profession,
the law
after 1 had been in congress a
couple of terms decided that / would
be happier and that my family would
be vastly better off if ] were back
home practicing my profession" he
said. $50 after the adjournment of
congress I set out to rebuild my neg
lected law business.
'1 was astonished at what a job it
was. My practice was not merely run
down or temporarily absent. It was
gone! Now, had not yet become
a topnatcher in my profession before
going to congress. In order to make
a comfortable income | had not been
able to depend alone on the better
grade of legal business, but was still
obliged to do some of the more trivial
work such as every young lawyer is
glad to get. This class of business
had gone from me in my absence,
along with the rest. And it did not
come back, because of a reason that
had not thought Of During my term
in congress / had come to be looked
upon as an important figure in the
community and everybody regarded
me as above such things as perform
ing legal services of trivial or minor
character. Thus I did not get the
small business and the big business
was being taken care of by other
lawyers who had been constantly on
the job"

Ear!iest Goal MinIna in Alabama.

The earliest known record of the
existence of coal in Alabama was
made in 1884, but the first statement
Of production in the state is contained
in the United States census report
for 1910, in which the amount mined is
given as GAG tons. The mines of Ala
bama were probably worked to a con-
siderable extent during the Civil war,
but there are no specific records until
1870, for which the United States CEN
sus reports production of 1900
tons. The development of the present
great industry really began in 1881
and 1882, when attention was directed
to the large iron deposits near the city
of Birmingham. By 1885 the coal pro-
duction of the state had increased to
nearly 100000 tons. In 1914, accord
ing to the United States Geological
survey, the production was 1888, 422
tons.

tests at the Pittsburgh laboratory of

announces that American glass manu-

ervation. 1t forms point of considerable interest
containing, as it does three memorial brasses on
the gray stone slab put down in memory of Lau-
Washington and his family These brasses
consist Of Laurence Washington's efigy, shield
bearing the Washington arms, and the following
inscription
Here lyeth buried We bodys of Laurence Wash
ingto Gent & Anne his wyf by whom he had
issue iii and il daughts wo laurence Dyed ye
day ano Is & Anne De-
ceased the vi of October ano Dni 1864"
Apparently Laurence Washington, great-great-
great-grandfather of George Washington, devised
this monument as a memorial to his wife, leav-
ing the date of his own death blank to be filed
in after his death. This, however, has never been
done.
Two other records of the Washingtons are
found in the village of Brington. In this little
township not far distant from Northampton,
stands the house to which the family moved from
Sulgrave. 1t was in this house that Robert Wash
ington died in 1922, and in the yard, engraved
upon a sundal is found the Washington coat Of
arms.
In the Church of All Saints, near at hand, where
Robert Washington is buried, Inscription reads
as follows:
Here lies inferred ye bodies Of Elijah Wash
ington, widowe, who changed this life for immor-
talitie We 10Th day of March, 1922. AS also ye
body of Robert Washington, Gent. her late hus-
band second some of Robert Washington of Sol
grave in ye County of North Esqr., who depted
this life We 10th of March, 1922, after they lived
lovingly together"
Laurence Washington, grandson of the Lau-
renee of Sulgrave died in 1916, and is also buried
here
Unfortunately little of the village Of Sulgrave
as it was in the days of the Washngtons now re-
mains. A disastrous fire in 1875 swept the vii
lage, and only relic may be seen here and there
in an ancient house. Most of the streets are set
with neat brick houses. Coming toward the
Church of All Saints might fancy oneself in
the business center of some minor New England
CITY, but with rather less of glare and noise, and
the community held in certain allegiance By the
presence of the old church

First to Die for Liberty

It would be difficult to say who was the first man
killed in the Revolutionary The spirit Of
revolt prevailed and some collisions between the
people and British soldiers occurred before the
war actually began. The battle of Concord oc
Cured more than year before the Declaration of
independence, but there was bloodshed before the
battle OF Concord. One of the earliest of these
collisions was the so-caled Boston massacre,
March s. 1870, in which British soldiers fred upon
