If Mr.. Lewis stated anything that
was untrue, Wednesday night, why
did not the Hon. Philip or Mr.. Scobey,
or some one Of the anonymous scrib-
blers who now assail him, rise up on
end, in response to his challenge, and
dispute the proposition as they are
now doing under cover? Why did
they not then speak or now hold their
tongues? 1t was simply because they
realized that the proof was at hand
and any attempt to rcfute by positive
denial would meet with inevitable de-
feat 1t was case in which dis
cretion was really the better part of
valor, and discretion won the toss-up.
IT took Oily twenty-four hours to
timber up after the drubbing Lewis
gave him, and it was only after the
little man with the sling had left town
that he raises his hand and shouts
defiance. Our ncighbor should not
climb too high, however, for Mr.. Lewis
is coming back, and when Oily is in
sight it must be confessed he presents
Il tempting mark for the shafts of
satire.

Probably the protected cruisers Yale
and Harvard will fight all right
enough in spite Of their names. But
when the naval authorities had a
chance to teach the people Of this
country patriotism by naming the
auxiliary cruisers, why didn't they
call them by the names Of Americas
naval heroes2 While Prof. Norton,
Of Harvard is blatently palaverirr
about peace to the students Of that
university and ta''ing them that it is
not at all patriot for them to enlist
in the service, the cruiser Harvard is
expected to fight like a demon. The
ontrast is absurd and ridiculous. 1t
is not at all surprising that the army
and navy journal is disgusted over the
malapropos selection Of names. In dis
cussing this question it says.
"ThinlS OF Harvard as a name 10

CROOK-WILKERSON.
Wedding to Take. Place in Lexington
 Bessemer Notes.

Bessemer, September 2S.-(Special.) )-The announcement has been made of the ap- preaching marriage of Major Robert L.. Crook, of the Third Mississippi vo!unte rs and Miss Irene Wilkerson, the ceremony to take place in Lexington Ky, next Mon- day evening at o'clock.
 Major Crook is quite a young man, hand some and affable, and the son of Cap a n and Mrs. H. w. Crook, of this place. He lived here for many years. Some time ago he went to Vicksburg, Miss, where he has been in business and where he recently re- ceived his appointment as major of the Third Mississippi volunteers. The regi- ment has been in camp at Jackson, and was not long ago moved to Lexington, Kv They expect to be ordered to Cuba within thirty days.
 Miss Wikerson is also of Vicksburg, Of a prominent family at that place. She IS said to be a most lovely young woman She is at present with her mother visiting relatives in Lexington. Though the young neople have been engaged for some time, they only recently determined to be mar ried so soon, being hastened to that decision by the contemplated removal or the regl- ment. Mrs. Crook will accompany her nus band to Cuba. They will probably ply brief visit to Major Crooks relatives here before leaving the United States.
 A very sad accident, with probably fatal termination, happened some time last mig It to Charles Gallagher, a white man ab )ut 4o years of age He is supposed to have started to walk from Bessemer to his home lin Iipscomb on the Louisville and Nash ville track. Just outside of Besse m r, where the road branches out in the direc- tion of Sloss he evidently took the wrong road as he was found on the 'Sloss rocd this morning. Whether he laid down slrd went to sleep, or was struck by a train while walking along the track, is a matter of lconjecture, but he was found at day. light this morning with both legs cN off, one above and one below the knee. He was at once attended by the company's physicians, and at this writing he is alive, but there is no hope of his recovery. Fer a long time he worked as section foreman senner, and has recently been working st Ensley. He leaves wife and several chill dren.

ANNISTON INDIGNANT
That Gen. Oates Argued Against Send
 ing Troops South.
9-27- 1t-tu-t sat

Anniston, Ala, September 2S.-(Special)- J. In the Associated Press dispatches yester- day morning was the following from Wash ington:
 General Oates was in Washington to- day, having come on for the purpose of advising the president not to send any more troops into the south until the last of October. He strongly urged upon the war department the necessity of retaining the soldiers at Camp Meade, Middletown, Pa., until cold weather should set in. On account of General Oates representations there will probably not be sent any more troops into the south until all danger of yellow fever spreading is passed"
 The city council met in special session and passed the following resolutions which were wired to President Mckinley and the war department:
 Whereas, The Associated Press repor s that Brgadier General Oates is in Wash ington City soliciting President Mckinley and the war department not to send any additional troops to southern camps be- cause of the danger of infectious diseasas becoming prevalent, and whereas there has been no infectious disease in the military camps located in the state of Alabama, and
 Whereas, There has never been known a case of yellow fever or cholera in or near the city of Anniston, though hundreds of refugees from epidemics have been quar- tered here, and
 Whereas the medical record of Camp Shipp at this city proves the perfect healthfuiness of this locality. and estab- fishes its phenominal immunity from me- phtic causes of disease,
 Be it resolved. That we earnestly protest against such a suggestion by General Oates as an unwarranted attack upon the health fulness of North Alabama, a region with an unexcelled health record and we fur ther insist that this city in the mountains. with it's high altitude, pure, dry air and in- exhaustible supply of pure spring water, is a place where troops from any section of our country may with the utmost safety be encamped at any season of the year and be immune from any malarial or other dis eases which may prevail in 0 lower coun- try.
 The following resolutions were also adopted:
 Be it resolved, That the city council of Annston holds in highest estimation the valuable aid of Hon. Hilary A. Herbert and the Hon. William F. Aldrich, M. C., given in the successful efforts made to se- cure the establishment of military camp at this place. And that the thanks of this council and of all the citizens of Anniston, are hereby rendered to the gentlemen named for their very effective service to this city.
 Resolved That the city clerk transmit to both Colonel Herbert and MT. Aldrich copy of this resolution.
