Secretary Charles Colsson of the Mobile Baseball Association, in discussing the remarks of Bobby Gilks the winning streak that the local team has hit says that the principal reason for it is that the bunch under McCay are always in the game from time the gong sounds until the last man is out in the ninth inning.

Lamar Fontaine, Mississippi's famous explorer, sett Mist, hunter, re-coiiteur and globe-trotter, has evolved the novel theory that the Edison Incandescent lamp is a twin brother of the Aurora borealis. According to Mai. Fontaine, the ehc-t lie light and th Aurora Borealis are produced by exactly the same causes. He says that "the Aurorean light Is produced ht 'he meeting of the positive and negative currents of electric. Ity that ascend northward from the equator to the pole, and are the same currents that compel our compass needles to ever point that way.

The carbon in the air, the cosmci dust, is Imrne earthward in a steady stream, the carbon and the dust Ignite, ami produces the magnificent display of light In the northern region. The Edison light is made on exactly the same principle as the Aurora Ilore-alls." Maj. Fontaine also hands out another shocker to the scientists in the shape of a nicely-evolved theory to the effect that "the flaming sword," referred to in the bible as placet! at the portals of the Garden of Eden to guard the Tree of Life, was merely an electrical manifestation, and he offers the doctrine with the following pertinent paragraph: "I know very well that I am butting up against ecclesiastical conclaves and so-called scientists, and I expect a lambasting from sophomore critics, but I defy them to point to a single declaration of mine that the cold indlsuptahlo facts of nature will not verify under crucial tests.

Some far-reaching effects of the reform wave in favor of strtnig'therifng the state supervision of Insurance companies, started by the New York legislature a year ago, when it enacted the measures drawn by Governor Hughes, who then was counsel for the Armstrong investigat-1 lug committee, have bi-en shown during the patt. winter in the legislatures of the various states, Hills the lines of those presented by thrj Armstrong committee have been introduced this year In at least two-thirds of the legislatures. A great, majority of the bills introduced were- In conformity with the recommendations of the committee appointed a year hy theVhicago conference of governors, attorneys general, and insurance commissioners of the differ-i ent states. Seventeen bills were re-commended by this committee, and in addition to these bills a measure has been intreidnced In the legislatures of many states, especially in the south. hich is attracting aa much attention as all the confere nce bills totether.

This propttsed law requires that seventy per ce-nt. of the reserve maintained against policies written in a state shall he invested in the securities of that state or its corporations The avowed purpose of this measure, which first was proposed by Insur ance Commissioner Folk, of Tennessee, is to draw some of the funds of the great insurance companies out of Wall street and compel their investment in states from which the revenues of the company are secured. By this mean' it is believed that one of the- serious evils of life flrxuiro can be checked. Although this rncasuru was not recommended by the conference commit-tee, it has met with decided popular favor and, in the same measure, it Is meet Lift the genernl opposition of the leading Insurance companies, especially the etpposii ion of the -bin eompRiiies in New York. The reason for this opjiositlon from the New York companies is obvious, for the passage of the measure would greaily reduce the amount of cash funds in the treasuries of these companies which for years have been, and still are, available for all sorts of market manipulation, stock juggling, and promition underwriting schemes in which th heads of those companies may see fit to engage.

These reasons, which lie at the bottom of the opposition shown by the Insurance people, are th very reasons which should, and probably will, cause the placing of the Folk lull on the statute books of many states before their legislative sessions are terminated. It must not he presumed, however, that the Insurance companies arc sitting by quietly while this is going on. Grover Cleveland, now president of the Association of Lite Insurance Presidents, has written a brief arguing against compelling the insurance companies to invest any rr.a'orial portion of their reserves in state securities and II L. Cox, who was a member of the Armstrong committee, but who now is secretary of the organization Mr, Cleve land heads, is appesring in the western and southern states to marshal the friend's of the insurance companies against the sevetHy per cent, hill. So Interested have the New York companies become in the defeat of this legislation that they hare instructed Mr.

Cox and their agents at the various state capitals to waste no time in opposing any of the measures of the Chicago conference but to concentrate all their energies to defeat, if possible, the Folk seventy per cent. bill. Wall street is watching (he progress of these measures with decided Interest, as the placing of the Ktlk idea on the statute books of any material number of states will result In taking an enormous amount of money out of the juggling hands of Wall street's high financiers. That New Yorkers dour spend more per capita for their amusements than the people- of any other section of the I'nited States is a well known fact, ami the amount spent often is the subject of interesting deductions by statistical writers for New York papers. One of the most interesting sets of statistics ever prepared en this subject has just been completed.

It estimates that on one Saturday of last month Jd.iiOO.Oim was spent hero f.ir amusements pure and simple.

Some of the leading New York clubs have a general campaign of reprisal against Englishmen because of the discourteous (real meat that has been accorded New Y'ork clubmen during the last con pit? of years when they have been hi London. Although American ostensibly have been admitted to all the privileges of the British clubs, when entertained there, many of them have complain- ett Ditteriy at trie restriction wine a have been imposed upon them.

Some prominent New Y'ork clubmen have said that, in a London club, they would not be taken any further than a strangers' room while in other cases they have been escorted to some small section set apart in a remote portion of the club buihiing for the' use of foreigners, Furthermore, la many cases, New Yorkers riave found I hat Englishmen, in entertaining tin would take them to some semi-pro-prh'tary club which was nothing more or less than a restricted hotel. As a result of this, Englishmen of high standing, who once were welcom ed to the exclusive clubs of this city, now virtually are under the ban. Their friends hesitate to propose them either as visitors or members as, in many cases where they have done so, they have been pointedly informed that the men proposed hy the nil would be blackballed unless their names were withdrawn. This state, of boycott applies only to the Ixudnn clubmen and no such feeling is shown towrd visitors from the continent. There, for years, American clubmen have been hospitably received.

Owing to official negligence in th' of borough presidents to certify as-itessnienis to the board of assessors, this city during the best five years hri paid out more than lo for the laying of sewers and grading of streets which should have been paid by property owners. This is an astonishing condition of affairs which has just lie- rfvi-alo'l through an investigation by the corporat ion cotin-sed's office and the commissioner cf accounts. The commissioners liave found that contracts had been paid for by the city which, with interest, made a total outstanding debt uncollected from property owners of $10,771,000. There were nA such contracts paid for hy the city- and not charged to property owners in Queens and 235 in Brooklyn, some of the contracts running back to H0'2, The proper procedure in such oases, I he report says, is for the city to employ a contractor and pay him the amount due under his contract, which amount, with incidental expenses, then is certified to by the borough president and the certificate forwarded to tno hoard of assessors in order that tit-v may on the prop-e rt benefited.

Its art auction rooms have become the common mee'tirg ground of collectors from all over the I'nited States, including both buyers and sellers.
