Each member of the committee pledged himself to go to work and secure new members. It is confidently expected that not less than 300 members will be enrolled within the next sixty days.
 One of the inducements that is held out to new members is that no citizen shall be permitted upon the floor of the next Rex ball, unless he has subscribed $15 to the Carnival fund. Only members of the society and invited guests from outside the city will be permitted to participate.

DEATH ON 4 CATTLE GUARD
Shep Nelson and J. c. Bynum,
 of DeKaIb County
RUN DOWN BY A. 6. s. TRAIN
Nelson Succumbed to His Inuries-Were Wit nesses Before United States Grand Jury
 and Were Returning Home.

As result of over indulgence in fntox- icalting beverages and foolhardiness in resting upon a cattle guard on a railroad track, Sheppard Nelson, an 1S-year-old boy .lies dead at the undertaking rooms of the Warner-smiley company, and J. c. Bynum eight years his senior, is at Hilman hospI- tai in a critical condition. Nelson and Bynum are citizens of De- Kalb county, and arrived in Birmingham on the 10th inst, as witnesses before the United States grand jury now in session. Bynum is said to have been almost a reg ular attendant upon the sessions of the United States court.
 Having given their testimony before the grand jury Monday afternoon, they were paid their attedance and mileage, and about o'clock in the evening started for home, going to the railroad yards in the eastern part of the city, presumably to catch a northbound freight train on the Alabama Great Southern railroad. It is said that Q short time after their departure C. C. Reid, a deputy constable, was given an unpaid board bill for collection, which had been left by the pair, and started in pur- suit.
 It seems that they were unable to catch a train and decided to walk. Yesterday morning about Il o'clock they reached Stephens switch about seventeen miles north of this city, On the Alabama Great Southern railroad, and wearied from their long tramp and over indulgence in moun> tain dew, they sat down, one on each side of cattle guard on the railroad and pres ently fell asleep.
 About 12 o'clock No. fast mail from Chattanooga, southbound, passed. that point.
 Nelson heard the train when it was nearly upon them and sprang to the as- sistance of his companion, who was still lost in the land of Nod. The train in charge of Engineer Jesse Harvey and was running at a high rate of speed. The en- zine was almost upon the men when they were discovered by Engineer Harvey, who immediately put on his "air' and reversed the lever but it was too late. The train swept by but was stopped in a short dis tance and backed up to the cattle-guard where Bynum and Nelson were placed aboard and brought to the city.
 Nelson, who was the most seriously in- jured of the two, was terribly bruised about the head and spine. Bynum's legs were broken in several places and he was otherwise injured.
 The railroad company had summoned the Warner Smiley Co. ambulance, which was at the depot on the arrival of the train about 1 o'clock. Byrum and Nelson were taken to Ellman hospital where Nelson died a few moments later. His body was removed to the undertaker's rooms and his father was notified and will probably arrive in the city this morning to take charge of the remains.
 Bynums injuries, while serious, are not thought to be fatal, and his chances for re- covery are good.
 Three bottles of whisky was found in the pockets of the mangled farmers. and indications that they had been drinking were evident.

THE D|G CORL|SS ENGINE At the AvondaIe Cotton Mills
 Started in Motion BY MISS BESSIE HENSON The Fair Sponsor, Who Prettily Said, q Chris ten Thee, Oh Engine! The Commercial
 CIub'-Big Crowd Present.

Yesterday was a memorable day in the history of Birmingham.
 The wheels of the great engine which will propel the machinery at the Avondale cotton mills were put in motion by Miss Bessie Jemison, the youngest daughter of Robert Jemison, one of the original pro- motors of the plant.
 At 10 a. m. quite a large crowd of repre- sentative people of this city had assembled in the engine room to witness the inter esting ceremonies. At that hour B. B. Conner, the president of the company, ask ed for attention and said:
 About year ago the people of Bir- mingham and the Messrs. Trainer. of Ches- ter, Pa, together with eastern capitalists, organized a company to build great cot ton mill In Birmingham. This mammot h mill is the result. (Applause).
 'This is the work of the Commercial club of Birmingham, which acted through a special committee composed of Robert Jemison, chairman; M. " Joseph, B. Steiner, Rufus N. Rhodes, Willis J. Mill ner, B. F. Roden N. E. Barker. F. Y. An derson and B. B. Conner. In honor of the chairman of the committee, MT. Robert Jemison, who did invaluable work, his youngest daughter has been invited to turn on the steam and christen the great engine. It Is my pleasure to introduce Miss Bessie Jemison." (Applause).
 The fair sponsor, who stood near by flushed with excitement stepped toward the monster engine and at a signal from Engineer Welsh she began to slowly open the valve that let the steam into the steam box which started the piston rod In ma- tion and noiselessy the great fy-wheel be- gan to revolve. At the first perceptable motion the little lady in clear, sweet voice said: q chrsten thee, oh, engine, the Commercial Club"
 The crowd sent up cheer, and the big engine, as if filled with pride, steadily in creased its speed and was soon spinning around at a lively rate.
 Mr. Welch, the engineer stood near the machine with a smile of satisfaction on his face, and Mr. Conner proposed three cheers in his honor, which were given with hearty response.
 The engine, which is of the Corliss make. Is one of the finest in the south. It is of 1,2OO horsepower. The mammoth f1y-wheel is twenty-nine feet in diameter, with band six and a half feet wide.
 The ceremonies yesterday were merely a test of the engine, which has just been placed in position, and other work of plac- ing the machinery will be carried forward with all possible haste.
 It is thought that the mill will be able to begin operation about June l. when a more elaborate ceremony will be gone through with.
