Mrs. Isadore Middleton, q very beau
tiful woman, and one Of the acknowl-
edged leaders of fashion in Mobile, can
certainly boast Of the possession Of Is
much nerve and true moral courage as
are often vouchsafed To any Of her sex.
On the evening Of September 10 she
was in her boudoir putting away some
articles of jewelry, when she noticed
that the peculiar position Of library
lamp that was burning upon chair in
the back part OF the room had thrown
upon the floor, almost directly at her
feet, the shadow Of q man who was
crcuching under broad topped orna-
mental table in the center Of the room.
She also remarked that the open hand
Of the shadow had but two fingers, and
remembered that several desperate burg
laries had recently been committed in
the neighborhood, supposititiously BY q
negro desperate, who was notorious as
having lost two fingers Of his right
hand.
Mr.. Middleton was absent from the
city, and, besides herself in the house,
there was but single maid-servant.
Instead Of fainting with fear, or Shrek
ing for help, the brave lady seated her
self At the very table underneath which
the miscreant was concealed, and rang
for the servant.

Steadily the time approaches for the
opening exercises of the Wheeling District
Camp Meeting, which begins on next
Tuesday, the first service being in the
evening. To saythe preparations that are
being made are extensive is rather mild.
The different committees are winding .up
their work, Of which they have had no
little to do, Col. Alexander is here from
early dawn till dusk experimenting the
work OF preparation and the many i'm
provements that are being made. OF the
improvements you have been advised, so
| will attempt no 'recital OF them here,
The demand for lots this year has been
unprecedented. There Is hardly a day
passes but selections are made BY persons
who contemplate building next year.
Several OF our Sixth ward citizens resid-
ing near LaBelle venue have selected lots
on the north side Of the encampment, and
the street running in front OF their lots
has been named LaBelle avenue. Capt.
VIM. Travis and Wm. Hastings, ESQ. /
believe, are agents for this part OF the an
campment. There will be over 100 tents
on the ground this year, and there Is NO
doubt but all will be- occupied.
The new seats, together with the new
gasoline lamps that have been purchased
by the association, will greatly improve
tho appearance Of the elmer circle" The
committee certainly deserve the thanks
Of all for the substitution OF the gasoline
lamps for the old tin lamps that have
years.
We are to have, during the meeting.
daily market, where between the hours OF
hve and eight in tho morning, and four 10
six IN the evening, vegetables and meats
can be bought. This will stop .
from travelling through the encampment
during religious services, and persons will
not be compelled 10 leave services 10 Inv
supplies for the day.
Anew survey Of the ground was made
yesterday, and several more lots were
staked oil. A new plat OF the encampment
will be made, and will be hung In the
office OF the Association. | was informed
Today that we are 10 have a Euclid, Pros.

more counties to hear from. How tonsy

noticed State Senator David Wagner,
Of Ohio, on the ground yesterday. His
family will remain until the close OF the
meeting.

says: 'HThere can be NO mistake as TO the
meaning Of this and other reports which
which have recently been received.
There Is not only a large increase, but a
rapidly enlarging increase In the volume
Of business represented by payments
through the clearing houses. This in.

most TO do with receiving and forwarding
grain; 1t Is very large also at all the cities
Of important wholesale trade In the At.

cities where the iron and coal interests
are most important. AT some Of the other
manufacturing centres the gain is less large

the dollar in which they are expressed, 1t

but the exchanges, exclusive Of those
arising from speculation, were not by any
means so per cent. greater"
