Americans who have just returned
from Spain report that country has
awakened to it's great, new opportuni-
ties In trade and commerce. They say
Spain is anxious to keep IN closer
touch with the Spanish peoples Of
South America, although with no idea
Of schemes Of colonization. King AL
fonso's proposed visit to South Ameri-
ca Is In line with this policy. 1t is be-
lieved that il he goes to South Amerl-
ca, the King may visit the United
States also.
His visit TO England is certain to
give the greatest stimulus to Anglo
Spanish financial and commercial rela-
tons Reports from well-informed
sources in Spain indicate that while
German commercial influence Is deter
Iorating fast in that country, there Is
much encouragement there for Ameri-
can and Allied commercial interests
King Alfonsos presence here is char
aoterized as having no ofticial signiG-
cance, just as was his visit, incognito,
to France. He was the guest of Pre-
mier Lloyd George at luncheon in

Hawes trial. He put it on the ground boy.
 The one I knew best of all the family was Maj. Henry R. Shorter. who married a kinswoman of our family. He lived long after I was grown. He will be remembered for years as the head of the Alabama railroad commission. He was a man of fine presence and rare charm of manner, and always carried with him the air of a gentleman of the old school. His son Harry, one of my schoolmates, who is now engaged in coal mining, was at one time secretary of state. He has lived here where he has many friends.
 One thing I recall about the Shorters is that they all had homes out on what in Eufaula we call the hill section. For years the home of Gov. John G. Shorter was one of the show places Eli built even further out, and had most com fortable place, but to my mind the home of Henry overlooking the city with the most attractive of any. It is now owned by ex-Gov. William o. Jelks, who mar ried his daughter, Alice.
 The Shorter family is easily among the first families of the state. All three of the brothers reached high places, and 1t was fitting that my good friend Will Jelks, who married my cousin Alice. should have kept up the honored tradi- tonss of the family, and l am sure that many will join with me in saving that he made one of the best governors Ala bama has ever had. He was not much given to oratory. or even writing state papers, but he made record as a great executive.

 He studied each individual so carefully that he even wrote a little biography ed. But he also made a careful ad- vance study of plot and effects. That was not the Victorian way. certainly not De Morgan's.
 Thackeray repeatedly asserted that he had little control over some of his creations. T have no idea where it all

 Now, this is in no sense to be evon an outline of the history of the famous Shorter family, whose name and fame added to the luster of Barbour county. I was too young to have ever known even by sight Gov. John Gill Shorter, but during my up-brnging I always heard him spoken of with love and affection by the people of his home town for he had great hold on all classes of the citizens of Eufaula.
 l was old enough, however, to remem- Der his brother, Eli Shorter, who for years served in Congress. He was a man of mark and was always com manding figure in any company; but he went to his reward long before I reached majority. I did not know his oldest son, but did watch the career of his two younger sons with great interest and pride. Eli, his namesake, was a splendid character, and I remember with grati- tude that he coached me for declama- tion contest which made it possible for me to win a medal.
 "Clem' was the readier speaker of the two, but I doubt if he had the power of his older brother In a prepared oration.

 ~ URIOUSITY about an admired (( novelist always demands in
 formation concerning his habits of composition. While it boots little to know whether he writes at dawn, as did Trollope, or at night with black coffee, as Balzac, or with many colored inks, as Darbey d'Aurevilley, or by preference away from home, as Thackeray, the leading facts concern ing his methods of creation are signi- ficant Those who recognize in De Morgan Victorian novelist surviving into the new time will welcome his wife's account, appended to his post humous novel, '"rhe Old Madhouse," of his methods of work.
