 The personnel of the Third regiment is of the very best young men from the well-known Canebrake section of the state, which is a sufficient introduction to our people, many of whom once resided in that locality, consequently the visl- tors are by no means strangers. 1hls regiment was the first to encamp at East Lake last year. and made many frien5s during their stay of one week.
 The Birmingham Railway and Electric company will put on extra cars and otherwise look after the comfort and con- venience of its passengers
 Gen.

who, since the death Of his mother,
resided with Henry Witzgal, died
last Monday. Funeral services and

been q much afflicted invalid nearly all
the period of his brief existence upon

Memo Miller, lad about fourteen
years old, and a pupil of the school
just north of town, was seriously in
jured while coasting down the hill at
the school house, last Thursday. He,
with six of the largest pupils and the
teacher went down the hill at thrill
ing rate of speed, upon long bob
coasters or eastern" sled, as they are
sometimes termed, and when they az
rived at the foot of the hill, where the
road turns sharply to the right, the
sled was proceeding SO terrifically as to
render effective steering impossible
and the sled with its passengers ran
into q rail fence. The principal vic
tim of the accident, who was plotting
the expedition, and being the foremost
one suffered most severely from the
accident. His face struck rail which
cut wound upon his forehead, into
the skull, gave him a cut upon the
nose and tore CHASTITY wound below
the eye, breaking his cheek bone. He
bled considerably. Miss Compton, the
teacher, also received a bump upon
the head, which, however, was not
serious. DR.. Lichty was summoned
and dressed the wounds, and consid-
ering the nature, etc, of the injury
the patient is doing remarkably well.
Sport is well enough as long as in
dulged in judiciously, but when
practiced to such an extent as to ieOp-
ardize the lives of the participants
it becomes serious recklessness. This
occurrence should serve as a warning
against future indiscretions of the
kind.
