Session at Memphis

Memphis, Tenn, November 1.-THE West
ern Waterways association convention was
called to order this morning shortly after
10 o'clock, and the initial work of the body
was at once of Importance and of interest,
not only to this immediate section, but to
all the country tributary to the Mississippi
river from the great northwest to the Gulf
of Mexico and the great lakes to the south
eastern seaboard.
After the committees were made up the
delegates were entertained with trolley
rides about town, and an afternoon lunch
con was given at Montgomery park.
The evening session was devoted to
experimenting by prominent delegates, all
of whom favored liberal appropriations by
congress for the maintenance and improve
ment of the rivers and harbors of the coun-
try.
Leon Bryson, of Davenport, Ia, vice
president of the association, spoke regard
ing Corpora ton and the willingness of cit
izens in his section to join hands with the
south in securing the improvements desired
on the lower Mississippi river. Captain
Bryson introduced DR.. Davenport, of Mem
phis, who opened the convention with pray
er.
Mr.. Darlington, who opened the conven-
ton, said that all Memphis thoroughly APP
preciated the great work the association
had in hand, and added that it was pleas
ure to entertain such a body of men.
Senator Turley was introduced, and well
coined the delegates for the state of Ten
nessee.
At the conclusion of Senator Turkeys
speech Congressman e. w. Mccall well
coined the visitors on behalf of the city.

after-effects from adulterated whisky need
nor be dwelt upon in this connection.
Mr.. Lacy refers with pride ito the endorse
ment of his product by the Lou1svllle
Courier-Journal, which in part is: When
any one sees the name of ]. w. McCulloch
ON a barrel or bottle of whisky he can
tackle it without any mfsgivings; it is all
right because it is absolutely pure, Mr..
McCullocn confines himself exclusively to
the making of pure, thigh grade whisky
Another very high endorsement OF the
"Green River is the fact that 1T is used
exclusively in an of THE hospitals of tine
United States navy. Mr. McCulloch, Mr..
Lacy and others of their representatives
are using their efforts to induce the people
who use whisky everywhere to adopt moth
ing but pure, straight goods. By so doing
they appreciate the fact that there will oe
less drunkenness, less disease from the use
of alcoholic liquors and consequently less
antagonism to THE liquor traffic. In ms
effort in this direction the big OWensboro
diStiller manufactures and places on the
market nothing but pure, unauthorized,
high grade goods-goodS that will stand the
test On every respect. He proposes to main
tain ftLle reputation which Kentucky estab-
lished years ago by making pure, good
whisky. The Green River high grade
handmade whisky has been famous for
years, and THE distiller proposes to pre-
serve its fame by guarding its purity with
jealous care. Hence, his travelling repre-
sentatves are under no circumstances per-
mitted ITO place it in the hands of disrep-
BILE or irresponsible Dealers The Green
River" says Mr.. McCulloch, shall not be
aduWeralted
Every barrel of "Green River" whisky
Shipped from Mr.. McCulloctl's distillery
bears the governments stamps showing
that same came from the government
bonded warehouse, and every dealer is fur
nisned with a certificate from the United
States gauger, which makes its identify alb
solutely sure
Mr.. Lacy has selected Birmingham as his
southern headquarters, and purposes plac-
ing fnis goods in every, town of Importance
in the state. Although he has been in the
city only few days several local dealers
are handling the Green River to splendid
advantage.

THE BICYCLE TRAILERS.

It is becoming quite customary in
Paris to see young women riding about
in little two-wheeled ''trailers," drawn
even through the most crowded streets
by bicyclists. The trailer" looks like
a small dog-cart, and has pneumatic
tired wheels, but instead of having
shafts, the strong dashboard curves
outward, tapering to a point by means
of which it is attached to a strong hook
behind the saddle-post of bicycle.
They are being made by most of the
large bicycle dealers, and many of
them are very elaborate and expensive.
Stylishly dressed, the young damsels
ride comfortably protected by an up
lifted parasol, while their best gentle
man friend, brother or some one spec
tally hired, does ell the work of pro-
pulsion. Fortunate it is for him that
the streets of Paris are comparatively
level.
The front seat attachments which
are adjusted to the petrol tricycles are
