A New Shoe Feature.
The Odd Lot Table.

A new feature in our Shoe De-
partment is the Odd Lot Table,
which we have just added. On this
table we have arranged a number
of special values in shoes for wo-
men, childrenand men, and on tive
shall place from time to time. odd
sizes, broken lots, etc, marked at
special prices to close them out.
1t is our desire to have our shoe
stock always clean and fresh. and
it is our purpose, therefore, to
force out odd sizes and broken
lines instead of allowing them to
accumulate. The
TABLE IS NOT SMALL
and does not contain mixed I'D
collection of sizes; on the con-
trary, it is large and roomy, divid-
ed into compartments and in each
compartment are placed special
value shoes in one size only. Thus
YOU can determine without loss of
time or patience whether or not a
special value can be had in your
size. 1t will prove to be a feature
Of great convenience 10 the eco
nomical buyer, and we feel that it
will be fully appreciated, the more
especially as those who watch the
odd Lot Table from time to time,
will secure MANY GOOD thinos-

ELEVENTH AVENUE
Will Now Have a Line of Electric
 Cars.

The people of Eleventh avenue on the rect connection for their short ear line with the main line running out Twentieth street A contract has been entered into be- tween the Birmingham Railway and Efec- tric company and the Highland Avenue and Belt railroad whereby the electric company rents the tracks of the Highland avenue line between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets on Eleventh avenue, and over these tracks the connection will be made The running of the electric cars over this line will not interfere with the running of the dummies. '.Zs
 Work was begun by the electric compahy yesterday morning making the connection, and Superintendent McClary stated yester- day afternoon that he hoped to have all the work, including the trolley wires fin- ished and cars running over the new track by the end of the week. At Five Points. where the Eleventh avenue line will branch off, the cars from the city will alternate, one going down Eleventh and the other keeping directly on up Twentieth street.
 The electric company has been trying for several years to run a branch of it's line down Eleventh avenue, but they have been restrained by an injunction. Negotiations have been carried on for several months with view toward an amicabe settlement which seems to have been accomplished to the satisfaction of all parties concerned.

RUN OVER BY AN ENGINE
L. W. Brewer Met a Tragic Death Sun
 day Morning.

L. W. Brewer met tragic death Sunday morning about Il o'clock, being run over by a Louisville and Nashville switch en- zine about Fourteenth street and Rail- road avenue G.
 Brewer was a br'ekmason, and it is said that he had been up to the Morris hotel to do a small job of work under boiler, and was just returning to his home on First avenue between Eighth and Ninth streets. The story of the accident is an old one He saw train backing down the track toward him, which happened to be the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham train backing into the depot, and he stepped off the track to let it pass. It seems that he became confused and stepped immediately in front of Louis vile and Nashville freight engine which was coming out of the round house. He was knocked under the wheels, his head and face smashed, his legs broken, and besides this he received internal injuries. The unfortunate man was taken to War ner & Smiley's and his people notified.
 The deceased, who was over 50 years old, leaves a wife and five children two of them being married daughters
 The railroads say that they are not to blame for the accident as the property where the accident happened was posted, and no outsiders have any business tbere.

arpet-bagger leader got into the saddle and dragged up the negro behind him.
 The governor of North Carolina has no veto power. For this reason the election or the legislature makes the passage ol a law Establishing an educational qualification a certainty. The republicans have as much to lose as the democrats have to gain,' and consequently they are putting forth every effort to Keep what they possess. In the past they have brought negroes from East Tennessee and South Carolina, and the democratic leaders say they are prepared to do the same thing again.
 The populists hold the balance of power If they stand to the fusion made with the republicans, then 1t is more than likely that the latter will remain in power The demo- crats are more desperate than hopeful. sThey say if they do not win this time they never will and speak in whispers of the terrible times that will follow if they lose. The fight is carried on in the open air and in secret. Any white man who refuses to join himself to the white party Is, de- nounced as a ''scalawag," and If he is a merchant, his store is boycotted and he finds himself with none but negro custpp1- CTS. White people are -boycottings negro 1abor and throwing the negro on the com munity as a pest. The negroes in turn are pilfering and committing depredations all through the country, and under the leader ship of renegade whites are becoming more lawless every day.
 Negroes Arming Themselves
 They are buying pistols and other arms wherever it is possible. The white store keepers will not sell to them, but they are getting them from outside the state. The whites are arming, too, and both are watching the other closely. One good sign is the sympathy which the white men are getting from persons all over the union, irrespective of party Many prominent re- publicans here are open in their expressions of sympathy. The papers throughout the country are treating the matter fairly, and 1t is seldom that a republican organ even has the temerity to indoyse the action of Russell and Pritchard. Tine effort to make North Carolina "a white mans state" has the best wishes of the respectable element throughout the country.
 The republican managers here say that the fight in North Carolina is having it's effect in states in the west. The negro has become more repuisive to the northwest than he can ever be in the south. The peo- pie or the latter section want them, but will control them. The people of Illinois, Tor instance. neither want them nor will they have them The action of Governor Tanner in Illinois has prevented the negro rom being party issue in this election save In a local way. His threat to meet any trains bringing int the state negroes With Gatling guns and burning the bodies ol the victims has outstripped anything oone or threatened in the south When the state Of Abraham Lincoln takes this stand, what can be said against North Carolina.

most cases this consisted of the uniforFn which they wore, their gray army blank4t,. a poncho and in many cases tin cap which they took along as a souvenir All the rest of their equipment had been turnd in to be sent back to the government arsenals.
 On the way to the street car station ats the lake, there were numbers of devicesf for ridding the soldiers of some of thes money which they had just drawn. The. pawnbrokers' agents were on the scene to- collect any of 'I O. U's'' which they held in their possession; there were others sell, ing frames which just fit one of the official! discharges; other frames for the company, rosters; trinkets and knick knacks of various sorts, and last but not least down. at the pavilion, two spoilers stood out in front hawking "the history of the two Ala. bama regiments, containing the name of every soldier complete in one volume, for only SIPS. Step right this way gents" :.
 But in the fall as well as in all others seasons of the year, the soldiers thoughts naturally turn to the great American game, of "craps," and yesterday and the day be- fore were no exceptions to the young vet erans who had but so recently made up the First Alabama. As soon as they were. discharged, and all restraint was removed many of the men would drop on the ground right where they stood, and having cleared off a smooth piece of ground with their hands, the great game was in pro- gress in less time than it takes to tell it. Chips were not resorted to, and the crisp bills and bright silver changed hands with out the useless fornaality of any agents.
 In the City
 After their arrival in the city, the men employed their time in various ways. Sex- eral hundred of them went at once to the clothing stores and purchased full outfits of citizens clothing. Others went immed- lately to their trains and left for their various homes in North Alabama. Others got drunk and raised cain all day and far into the night. All of them rejoiced that they were out of the army
 Nearly all of the men have something in view as a means of earning a livelihood. Some are enlsting in the regular army, others say they are going to Santiago to enlist in the Fifth immunes, others are going to Cuba with hopes of hanging on to something, or others still have a scheme of going with a wagon train to Porto Rico. But the big majority of the men are re- turning to the positions they had before the war, and it is said that in most cases their employees are right glad to get them back.

To my Knowledge there is no regiment here now whose men wearing unlined blouses. Some of the tents here have been condemned and they will be immediately replaced. There is a great deal of clothing in the depot and an abundance on the way. Acquisitions have always been promptly honored.''
 The commission adjourned at 6:30 for din- ner and resumed it's session at s o'clock Colonel M. A. Pew, of the Eighth Massa- chusetts was called. The principal com plaints he made were of the difficulty his regiment experienced in securing medical supplies. He said his surgeon would make out a requisition and hand into the proper officers and they would return them saying there were no supplies. Colonel Power said that his regiment had difficulty in se- curing its wagons. He said his camp ground was very poor.
 Clamoring for Medicine
 Colonel w. E. Leonard, of the Twelfth New York, testified that the surgeon of his regiment was continually clamoring for medicine to give the men in quarters. He could not secure this he said, so the colo mel spent $500 out of his own pocket for medicine.
 Colonel Leonard admitted that his men were sometimes not sent to the division hospital because they were so much op- posd to it.
 ''If you would not send in your men who needed medicine to division hospitals, how can you lay blame for not receiving medi- cine?" asked pr. Conner.
 "If we had sent all our sick men to di- vision hospitals" replied the colonel, i've would have had no need for our sur geons."
 Colonel Leonard said the commssary supplies had been good and so abundant that the men could not consume them. In consequence, each company had fund of $150 or more obtained by selling superauous supplies.
 The colonel complained of the quarter masters supplies especially of the shoes. He said that he had spent nearly $6O0 out of his own pocket for shoes for his men.
 He said that the supplies were issued in piecemeal and frequently the quarter master department got the acquisitions pulled up. s@ sa
 Colonel w. K. Caffee, Second Missouri, stated that his regiment did not receive all equipment until few days before leaving Cmpa Thomas for Lexington. Among the last things issued, he said, were the boilers for boiling the water that were ordered more than two months before.e
