It was a grandly glorious sight, one impossible to efface from memory. l would not have missed witnessing it for a small fortune, yet there could be no inducement offered that would tempt me to go, again. I only realized the danger wh;n it had passed, and we were safely at the bottom of the "mount.' Our stay in Naples was made much more pleasant by our meeting with an- other couple similarly situated and on pleasure bent. They were so jolly and eongsnial we enjoyed being with them so much We visited Pompeii, and went all over the remains. I have never seen anything so impressive I can well understand it's destruction, and think it must have besn a second Sodom and Gomouah, and I firmly believe that it's ruins have been allowed to be dscov- cred as warning to our generation. I will tell you of its evidences of vice whan I come home, I can't write it all. have taken splendid views of all the temples with my camera and then took a general view. Today we spent the elblfIt tIIile III ol. 1eteT ; dllu SttW every niche and corner of it intelligently, since we had the most accurate of guide books. Tomorrow we will gst a guide by the day, and a carriage, which will enable us to cover a great deal of ground and the next day we will spend in the catacombs; then We will see the Pan theon and St. John Latsran. We go from here to Florence, where we will visit and enjoy the two world:renowned galleries; from there to Paris; thence to London, whera we hope to meet dear old Lucian Julian and have the pleasure of his company home. This trip has been wonderfully instructive to me, in fact a complete education, such an one as no seminary could impart. have enjoyed every minute of it and have taken advantage of the opportunity of my life. We sail from South Hamp- ton on the 2Sth, till then God bless you all.

UNLIMITED CONFIDENCE
 IN
 BIRMINGHAM 5f AND HER INDUSTRIES

Has prompted us to prepare for bigger Fall trade than we ever had. To that end our buy CTS have surpassed all efforts to show such a line of Clothing as was never before offered in this city. Manufacturers, pend- ing the uncertainty of the tariff, were hungry for orders and we bought-not exactly at our own price-but cheaper than ever known in the history of the Clothing business. as
 Our new stock includes the widest range of styles and ma ,terials. ALL the popular fab- rics = Worsteds, Cassimeres, plain and fancy Cheviots, etc. The Things and trimmings are of guaranteed durability and color.
 ALL ORDERS WERE PLAC-
 ED BEFORE THE REGENT
 TARIFF LEGISLATION, AND
 OUR PRICES BASED ON THE
 VALUES RULING BEFORE
 THE TARIFF ADVANCE ARE
 CONSEQUENTLY THE VERY
 LOWEST.

Mrs. Bessie O'Brien Hundley writing from Rome, Italy, to friends, says:
 We arrived here last night from Ma plss; while there we visited the great and grand Vesuvius, and I have never been so frightened in all my life. To begin with, we rode for four hours in a private conveyance, until it got so steep the guide decided we must change our mode of locomotion and try it horse back. After an hour travelling by the latter method we alighted and took a sort of a car propelled by a cable up a hightful incline to the stopping point by that mode, where we "disembarked' and walked for at Feast twenty-five min utes, by that time having reached the historic cratsr. You are no doubt aware of the fact that the volcano has been more active this summer than in years, and while we were standing on the verge of the crater, there was a dreadful con- vulsion, that scared us nearly silly" I thought my time had surely come There was an awful, rumbling, thun- derous sound which fairly shook the earth beneath our feet, and immediately following, came fire and smoke, and with them, stones were hurled, ever 300 feet dn the air, dn size as large as a mans body; then followed a. perfect shower of sulphur. almost an impalpable

asked. Doesn't the newspaper bust
ness pay down therc?"
''Oh, yes" said the travelling journal
list, Il suppose the pecuniary returns
are just as liberal there as anywhere
else, but I'm the victim of circum-
stances. You see, l had a quarrel with
the editor of the other paper published
in the town where / was located, and
after considerable badinage he &c
knowledged that he had been in the
wrong"
"Well, why should that have made it
necessary for you TO leave?"
