Jersey Mosquito Seems Doomed

From Thrift Magazine.
 There was time not many years ago when the New Jersey mosquito could
 look forward, with reasonable certain
 ty, to long and happy career. There
 was nothing of particular importance
 to endanger him in life or limb. and,
 if he behaved himself and did not take too many chances with the summer
 boarders, he could anticipate ripe
 old age with his children and grand
 children gathered about him.
 But with the advancement of science.
 all has changed and the Jersey bird of
 prey now views the future with unmis-
 ta hle feelings of pessimism. Slowly but
 surely efforts to annihilate this grand
 old standby of the comic supplement-
 are having their effect and it is pre- dicted in antimosquito circles that be- fore many seasons shall have passed
 the mosquito will live only as a pink and swollen memory.
 War was officially declared on the Jersey mosquito in 1905 and during all the intervening years the battle has ragged with varying results. However, it now begins to look as though man kind instead of mosquitokind would win this heroic fight to make the world safe for low-necked shoes.
 Just across the Hudson from New York city lies a stretch of salt marsh or abOut Zo,VUO acres, called the New ark meadows. Not over , per cent of this land is now in use. Here the mos quito lives and rears his lusty family. The fight against the pest has been cen tered in this district which is crossed | by no less than 30 railroad lines and is within a few moments ride of the worlds leading seaport and America $ greatest city.
 | Since the fight against the mosquito | o1~o, fvNx f1,n l Jersey marshes increased from $7650 in l 1905 to $23S,513 in 1918.
 The extermination of the New Jer- sey mosquito Is commendable example | of thrift. Humanity will be better off without his comradeship.

Heart of MoOrish Cities

From Through the Gates of the Mogh-
 reb,' by Elsie F. Well. in Asia Nigga
 zine.
 Through the narrow lanes of Moorish cities, the water carrier, who has filled his goat skins at the nearest fountain. plies his trade from house to house. The town of Morocco does not extend open, smiling arms to the stranger The houses present cold, forbidding fronts. The winding, irregular streets twist and turn ir a bewildering fashion. and the low arches, often linking house with house, convert the streets into a series of high walled semi-open courtyards, still more confusing to the uninitiated. But if one is privileged to enter through the mas sive gates formidably reinforced with heavy iron bands and heavily bolted, one may step into courtyards surrounded with arched passageways, richly carved and covered with luxuriant hangings; into a melancholy garden flagged with ancient white stones, where a marble fountain plays softly and great orange trees are outlined voluptuously against the white walls and the unclouded sky. Who knows how many wistful harem ladies have Ianguished there. what fantastic tragedies have been spun on curiously fatalistic silxen threads?

HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville July 5.--(Speclal)- ) The Madison county board of equalization has finished it's work of four years and made its report to the tax asses sor. The board expects to go out of existence as it is believed that the leg islature will make some provision for equalizing assessments The Madison county board has adjusted many dis
 putes between the state and the tax
 payers and there has never been an appeal from it's decision. Three and
 one half millions, 1t is estimated, is
 the amount that has been added to the
 assessed valuation of taxable property
 in this county and the total valuation is
 now about 16,500,000. This makes the
 actual value of property about $27,-
 500,000 because the assessments are
 intended to represent only 60 per cent of the actual value.
 The newly organized Kiwanis club of Huntsville gave banquet Thurs day night in compliment to visiting officers from Birmingham and install ed the new officers of the club. Clar- endon Davis was installed as presi- dent of the Huntsville Kiwanians. Ad- dresses were made by Jeff Bailey, A. J. Arrant and Rev. M. S. Barnwell of | Birmingham. The banquet was at- 1 tended by about one hundred persons Huntsville spent the quietest Fourth l of July in many years yesterday. There 1 was no set celebration and the day was more like Sunday than Indepen- dence day.

Sugar To Be Supplied

Alice Paul Says She Is Confident of Suffrage Amendment Victory in nAlabama--Underwood Will Aid Laws Looking Enforcement of Prohibit
 ton Amendment
By HUGH w. ROBERTS.

ey CT, that Secretary Baker is greatly en- amored of General March, present chief
 of staff, whose war work was highly
 successful, and that he would have Gen
 eral March retained as chief Of staff
 The greatest difficulties lie in the path
 of General March. In the first place,
 were he chief of staff in the regular.
 peace time establishment, he would out
 rank General Pershing Many members
 of Congress, despite the merit Of General
 March, entertain the sentiment that no
 soldier in the American army should out rank the general who commanded the American troops in France.
 But as difficult as the sentimental req son will be to overcome, there is a practical reason for the hesitation of ! Congress. Prior to the war when the only establishment was the regular es- tablishment General March was not General March or even Colonel March He was Lieutenant-colonel March. From i lieutenant colonel to general is a longer ] jump than has ever been made in the history of American arms. There i7 every ] reason to believe that Congress will not 1 permit the jump.
 l During the last session of Congress, when the democrats were in charge, Sec retary Baker fathered bill promoting General Pershing. General Bliss, General 1 March and General Bullard to the rank of full generals in the regular military
 establishment. Despite the fact that dem ocrats, as a rule, were inclined to favor
 the democratic administration, the bill, when before the House committee on mil itary affairs, attracted no favorable at ] tention. It was permitted to die i'll a pigeon hole.
 i According to individual members of the
 committee, the committee is believed te be inclined to make General Pershing a i full general in the regular establishment, and as such the ranking officer of the
 army. The indications are that neither | Ger eral March, General Bullard nor Gen eral Bliss will be favored to the extent l of Secretary Bakers desires, although
 each, it is promised, will be given cer- | tain promotion.

Roosevelt as a Writer

Mir. Roosevelt produced much excel lent literature. but no masterpieces like Jincoln's Gettysburg address and sec ond inaugural Probably his sketches of ranch life and of hunting trips In three continents will be read longes and will keep their freshness after the public questions which he discussed have lost interest and his historical works have been in part rewritten IF these outdoor papers, besides the thrilling adventures which they-very modestiy-record there are even pas sages of descriptive beauty and chap ters of graphic narrative, like the tale of the pursuit and capture of the threo robbers who stole the boats on the Nils souri river which belonged to the Roosevelt ranch.
