RALEIGH TOBACCO MARKET.

The prospects are most favorable for
the Raleigh tobacco market this season.
An immense crop was raised in the terri
tory adjacent to this city and only small
proportion of it has yet been put on the
market, probably not more than one
fourth. Warehousemen estimate that at
least 100000 will be sold here this
season. of this amount only about 100000
pounds have yet been marketed. Prices,
especially for fine grades, have been well
sustained and are improving. The aver
age quality of the weed this year, however
is not so good as usual The facilities
here for handling the leaf have been
very much improved and large breaks
are expected between now and Christmas.

IN THE MAYORS COURT.

Tsae Mayor yesterday spent an hour
listsning to evidence for and against two
Bo{gery bellies of very dark hue and the
argument of their counsel, Messrs. Thos.
Deyereaux and e. A. johnson. The
aforesaid damsels were Hannah Gold
stein and Charity Rhodes. II appeared
from the evidence that these two festive
maidens, especially the first named, be-
came unduly jubilant over the result of
the election, imbibed corn-juice too freely
and proceeded to make things lively in
their community. AS Charity's offense
seemed to consist principally of the fact
that she was tipsy and in company with
the boisterous Hannah, she was dis
charged, while Miss Goldstein was sent

Allen Higgins, also charged with dis

LOOKED UGLY FOR A TIME.
Infatuated Negroes Attempt to Lynch Henry
Howe, Who Had Killed Richard Cor
don, Another Negro

Sunday afternoon about o'clock In
Bessemer the sharp report of pistol was
heard in a barber shop, and people rush
ing in found Richard Gordon, negro,
dead upon the floor. Henry Howze,., an
other negro, was the only one in the
room with him at the time, and he was
Immediately placed under arrest.
The news of the killing spread rapid
~, and for a time it looked as If the ne
groes of the Marvel City would indulge
in a first-class lynching bee. They were
thwarted however and Howe was placed
on an incoming Bessemer and Birming-
ham dummy and brought to this city.
In the meantime a negro courier came
here ahead of the train, and by report
ing the killing according to his own lik-
ing had a strong feeling worked UP
among some of the colored population in
this city. A large number of them gath
cred at Third avenue and Nineteenth
street, but were promptly dispersed by
Officer Culpepper.
Sheriff Morrow had been informed of
the killing and ugly actions. of the ne
groes of Bessemer, and he, with Chief
Deputy Thompson and several police Of
ficers, met the dummy and landed Howe
safe behind the bars.
Howe claims that the shooting was
accidental, and that he and Gordon were
on the best of terms. Howe is a barber,
and Gordon was a beer wagon driver
A warrant charging murder has been
sworn out against Howe,

CHILD INJURED.
Negro Driver Has No Time to Look Out for
Bicycle Nusances-May Be
Taught Lesson.


Mr.. A. M. Lopez called at the State
Herald office yesterday morning and re-
ported the following facts regarding a
case of reckless driving. Mr.. Lopez says
his two children, son about IL years old
and daughter about Is years old, were
riding their wheels and on Eighteenth
street an Ice wagon belonging to the Ivy
Leaf Ice. company came dashing down
Third avenue. at breakneck speed. The
driver paid no attention Whatever to the
ringing Of the bells on the wheels. which
the children rang vociferonsly, and drove
right into the 12-year-old boys wheel,
knocking the child off his wheel and hurt
ing him badly. The driver then got off his
wagon and went up to where the children
were and spoke very rudely to them, say
ing among other things that he had no
time to be looking out for such nuisances
as bicycles anyway. The damaged boy
was helped on street car and sent home
by some kind-hearteda-.gentle who
were passing by. The city authorities
might by the proper efforts, locate the
driver, who announced after driving over
the child that he had no time to be look
ing out for such nuisances and learn him
a lesson. tssss.'tr

Demand for Its Graduates.
One hundred dollars will defray a
years expenses, including board. OF
this not more than SIS will be needed On

Its faculty is composed of specialists.
No institution in Alabama has a strong
er faculty. Before graduating it's stu

Its graduates are in great demand.
They readily secure good positions. OF

term 1t is expected that all will be en-
gagged. "
Parents and ambitious young teachers
should make a note of all these points.
Alabama calls for hundreds of new
teachers every year. If our own young
people do not prepare for this work
they will be brought in from other states.
Graduates of high schools and col
