COLOSSAL INAUGURAL ATTENDANCE

Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 29.-(Special
Staff Correspondence.)-The last day of
the third week of the general assembly
passed off without unusual interest. The
assembly will adjourn on Wednesday,
the 9th inst, for recess, until Wednes
day, January 20 This report was offered
today by the joint committe on adjourn
ment and adopted. This will equally di-
vide the session into two terms, of
twenty-five days each. 1t was the desire
of many of the members to adjourn next
week and considerable lobbying was
done to that effect, but the majority
seemed to be of the opinion that this
would require too long a session after
Christmas and keep many of the men,
bers who are interested in agriculture
from their early duties of the year.
A great deal of interest is now being
manifested in the inaugural exercises
to take place Tuesday. the 1st of De-
cember. All indications are that it will
be more largely attended by citizens
from every nook and corner of the state
than any previous inaugural for many
years past. The programme as previ-
ously published is an interesting one.
The inaugural ball is under splendid
management and will be an occasion of
great pleasure to those inclined to this
amusement Visitors are already gather
ing and by Monday the city will be filled
with Alabama's citizenship, from every
walk of life.
