Professor Smith of the university at
Tuscaloosa tells me that the state sus-
tanned an irreparable loss when the
museum was burned. 1t was at the close
of the war. In fact, all the fighting
had ceased, when Colonel Croxton' s
regiment of Federal cavalry neared the
city. The university cadets turned out
and skirmished little with the caval-
ry, 10 one being killed, and the enraged
soldiers set fire to the buildings.
The geological collection was proba-
bly, the finest in America, as Alabama
was peculiarly rich i'll remains of the
reptilian and mammalian ages. All
were destroyed, and most cannot now
be replaced, as they were the accumu-
lations of so years. In iron, however,
it seems that the state can fulfill her
promises. When Senator Pugh said, in
1856, that she could make good profit
and sell iron at 50 he was pronounced
rash, bat they talk now of doing it at
$3.50.
There is one subject, however, on

that in five years the imports of corn
have decreased 20 per cent and of meat
still more, and in the Georgia building
it is claimed that the state is now ex-

rather staggering to the faith. Column

over 400 per cent in ten years. Macon
says hers has doubled. Augusta has in

THE WHEBLMEN.

To Organize To-Night-Hubert Equals
the Record to Stockton.
The wheelmen of this city are now be-
coming so numerous that they are going
to organize into clubs, which is good
idea. There might be one central Or
ganization and several smaller ones, Dut
that is a matter the men and women OF
the wheel can best determine for them
selves.
At all events. meeting OF wheelnen
has been called for this evening in the
basement of the Fol esters' building Tor
the purpose of considering the matter OF
forming large club. All wheelmen are
invited TO be present.
A large number Of riders were abroad
yesterday, and several groups went on
long jaunts into the country. Secretary
Smith of the Stale Agricultural Society
took his friend, E. S. Hadley OF the State
Printing Office, on little 'pasea' to
Campo, nearly forty miles from the city,
1t was their intention TO return by train
last evening.
Another party, composed of II. w. ii.
Gorsuch, Charles Bauer, Lester oung
and Thomas " elch, made the run to
Stockton. tifty-one miles. All but one
returned by rail.
w. A. Hubert, an experienced rider, who
also made the trip TO Stockton. his pur-
pose being TO see in how short time he
could cover the distance, and il possible
break the record. He left the corner OF
Ninth and X streets at just O'Clock, and
arrived at Elk Grove, l44 miles, IN Al
minutes. Gait, n miles, was passed in
l hour and % minutes; Lodi, IS miles, IN
2 hours and minutes. He arrived at 3I9
Sutter street, Stockton, 81 miles, in just
hours and Al minutes, which exactly
equals the best previous record. held by
Il. Elliott, formerly OF this city but now
residing in San Francisco. Tine first 20
miles were ridden in l hour, and the last
20 iD l hour and minutes. After short
rest the return trip was made, arriving
home at o'clock P. NJ.
MIR. Hubert will shortly make another
attempt TO reduce the time over this
course, using larger gear. with which
he expects 10 make the "trip in or under
two and half hours.
George Redman, another veteran rider,
rode from the Courthouse to t'reeport
niue and one-third miles, in just twenty
eight minutes. The road is quite rough,
or he would have made even better time.
In all directions yesterday parties OF
wheelmen were out Tor recreation.
