BIG AIR COMPRESSOR.
To be Built by the Hardie-Tynes Go. for
 the Leeds Ore Mines.

The Sloss Iron and Steel company has awarded to the Hardee-Tynes Foundry and Machine company the contract of building a large duplex air compressor to be used at the company's new ore mines at Leeds.
 It i'll be one of the largest air compressors in the district. It will supply the power to work the drills and for various other pur- poses around the mines. This will be big piece of machinery and it will require three or four months to complete 1t.
 It speaks well for the Hardee-Tynes eom- pany and for the irmingham district that the contract for this big piece of work was obtained by home firm. Some of the larg- est builders of the north and east have had their men here bidding on the work but the Birmingham firm won on the merits of It's work and the cheap price quoted for the job.
 The awarding of this contract is another evidence to the world that the Brming- ham district make the largest kind of machinery, and that in quality of work manship and in cheapness of prices its manufactures afford advantages not off, fered by those of any other city in the world

FUNERAL OF J. T. MILNER.
Services at Presbyterian Church and h.
 terment at Oak Hill.

The funeral services over the remains of the late John T. Milner were held yester- day morning in the First Presbyter an church. and the interment took place af- terward at Oak Hill cemetery.
 The remains were brought down fir m New Castle, where the deceased died on Thursday morning, at g a. m. yesterday, and they were met at the depot by the pail bearers and large number of friends.
 The church was filled with friends and the public in general, besides the family and relatives of the deceased. There were also present about fifty of the colored ser- wants of the Milner family. who were anxious to accompany to the grave the body of the man who had been such a kind master to them.
 The sermon was preached by Dr. J. H. Nall of New Orleans, an old friend of MT. Miner when the two lived at Greenvile, Ala. It was only by accident that he hap pened to be in the city, and to him was assigned the duty of speaking the last words over his departed friend.
 He spoke in high terms of the gsnerosi- ty, hospitality and Christian faith of MT, Miiner and said that man, as hust band and as a father he had been all that could be expected of any man.
 The remains were laid to rest at Oak Hill cemetery. With this ceremony was buried a man who had been Birmin gham's friend and one who had done as much or more than any of his contemporaries in the upbuilding of the district.
