 He was born September 3, 1858, his ancestors all being Pennsylvanians, q number of whom served in the revolu- t!onary war and several of whom on his mothers side were Quakers. He graduated with honors from Princeton in 1881. He came to Birmingham in May, 1885, and in September. 1899, formed law partnership with Judge James J. Banks. In 1904 he was can didate for the supreme court of Ala bama.

old Road Modernized.

With the conversion of the Rio
Grande railway from narrow to stand
ard gauge over its twenty-Odd miles
between Brownsville and Point Isabel,
Tex, a unique American road will be
thoroughly modernized and lose all
visible evidence Of its historic distinc-
ton. The Rio Grande is one Of the
old roads In the United States. 1t was
built In 1868 by Spanish syndicate.
and operated under Spanish methods
until 10 years ago, when it passed
under American management. Its
equipment until then was Of the Span
ish type, its records were kept in that
language, and the little railroad had
remained as typically Spanish as If It
had never heard of an American rail-
way. The reconstruction, which goes
forward to meet the business ex-
pected from a new deep-water channel
at Point Isabel, will remove the last
traces Of the long Spanish regime. The
ancient equipment will altogether van
ish, and there will remain nothing to
recall the memory Of the Spanish syn
dicate except probably picturesque
paragraph in q railroad folder for
tourists.

something had happened to his friend.
He therefore went into his room and
found the friend sitting up in bed.

adopted the novel expedient Of calling

placed piece Of toasted cheese some

the remedy was working the doctor
