The rapid recovery IN cotton and the

made have not increased confidence
There is little better demand for most

estimates of the corn crop have deprsss-

five weeks 12,212,S21 bushels against
.S23.54S last year, fact which has It's
weight IN the wheat market also.
Pork and lard are not much changed,

A SAD ACCIDENT.
MT. J. W. Walters, While Preparing for Hunt, Receives a Load of Shot in His Leg, Which
 Is Amputated.

Mir. J. w. Walters, bookkeeper for Biilner 6 Kettig. who resides at Lucille station, on the East Lake dummy line, was accidentally shot h the left leg yesterday morning. The wound was so serious that amputation was necessary.
 It seems that MT. Walters had set a gun down near the door of an outhouss at his residence and that by some means it was knocked to the floor. The fall of the gun caused an explosion, and unfortunately Mir. Walters was standing directly in front of the gun. The cartridges were loaded with birdshot, but the close proximity of his leg to the muzzle of the gun caused the bone in the leg to be shattered.
 Drs. Jones and Robertson were called in i, who at once saw that amputation was nec- essary.
 Dr. B. G. Copeland of this city was sent for and performed the operation.
 Mr. Walters suffered great agony from the accident, but at last accounts he was resting very easy.

WILL LECTURE THIS AFTERNOON AND TO- NIGHT-A TREAT IN STORE.
 This afternoon at o'clock ip the Cum. berland Presbyterian church Miss Eliza- beth U. Yates will deliver free lecture, and tonight at Erswell hall besides deliver ing a lecture, Miss Yates will be assisted , in musical programme by. members of the Birmingham Gee club and other local talent. The lecture at night will be for the benefit of the local lodge of Good Tem- plars and an admission fee of 25 cents will be charged.
 D Mrs. H. H. Sinnige, the well-knowu vocalist, and MT. George Jackson, the , corp etist, will render beautiful selections at the lecture in Erswell hall.
 Miss Yates, who will deliver the lectures, comes highly recommended, and will no doubt afford her hearers an interesting time.
 The Easter Argus (Portland, Me.) says of her:
 s'Miss Yates gave an able presentation of the status of woman in tine domestic and public affairs of life, and the very marked advancement that has been made in recent years towards equRlizing the interests and responsibilities of the two sexes in all af- fairs. Her address was an eloquent and polished production, and was received with marked applause."
 The Newport (R. I.) News says:
 Miss Yates' lecture has never been equaied iu originality and good sense by any woman In Newport.
