THE CHAMPIONS
WILL ARRIVE TODAY
Everything Ready for the Bicycle
Meet at the Coliseum.
RIDERS PRACTICE MONDAY
The Motor Tandem Pacing Machines
viii be Placed on Exhibition in
Front of Hotels and Public
Places This Afternoon

The grand circuit crack riders and the
motor tandems or Internal machines will
arrive this afternoon on the Louisville and
Nashville from the north under the direc-
ton of Secretary Spooner of the National
Cycling association. The motor tandems
will be placed on exhibition Immediately
and on Monday the men will go out to the
track for practice work.
The full programme has been decided
upon, and will include ten mile match
between Miller and Eaton back of the in
fernal machines. Each man is to have his
own motor and they start at the opposite
side of the track
A one-mie handicap professional with
Eaton and Miller on the scratch and the
rest placed up to one hundred yards will
be- feature, while the matches between
Nelson and Biddle and Hickman will pos
sbly create more excitement then any
other event. Hickman's victory over Pea
body has given his friends great confidence
in his ability to hold his own with the
outside riders, even If they are world $
champions.
Riders in Fine Form
Waller, Pierce, Stafford, Stone, Judge
form, as indicated by their recent perform
ances and genuine professional records.
Miller and Waller are getting in some
valuable work in the way of fitting them
selves for the great races at Madison
Square Garden In December. Eaton also
enters the New, York race, and will have
John Fisher the Chicagoan, who is ex-
peeted here this week, his ma tie. Stone,
Stafford and Judge work out with the 9TH
ers. as work on the single wheel aids them
to increase their speed on the high-geared
motor machines. These machines are
geared to 112.
Johnnie Nelson, the amateur, works as
hard as did Michael when he was here in
'96. He jumps the rope, runs, walks and
does athletic exercise. and is preparing to
meet Michael this winter. He is anxious
to cut the track record in his exhibition
and as these track records were made by
Michael, he believes this the opportunity
to draw a comparison.
Motor G. Gle Racing
Motor cycle racing is the very latest
form of sport and these men are the lead
ers who have come out of the past season
at the top. The offer of a $1,000 purse to
race at Baltimore on the same date as in
this city is an indication of the great
drawing power which these teams possess
in one southern city.
Lee Richardson's exhibition will be put
on the programme for about 9:i5 in order
that the late Corners will not miss his great
work. He has a number of new tricks
since he was here last, and his return will
abound with startling evolutions- Reserv-
ed seats are sale at the Birmingham
Arms company. l

Negro Department
The negro department is meeting with
tremendous success. Commissioner David
w. Parker is working hard for success and
the outlook Is extremely bright E. A.
Brown, the colored attorney of this city, is
rendering Parker most valuable assistance.
The colored people of Birmingham and all
over the state are greatly enthused and are
taking much interest in their department.
Prof. w. H. Council, of Normal, will be
the principal orator on Negro day, Novem-
Der 16 Bishop C. C. Pteey. of North Caro-
lima, e. A Brown and other noted negroes

known colored teacher of this city, is in
charge of the educational section of the
negro department.
Commissioner Parker has addressed a let

colored public schools of this city be given

1t Is conservatively estimated that ten
thousand colored people will attend the
fair on Negro Day. John G.. Wright of
Tuscaloosa, is grand marshal, and will
have charge of the monster parade. He
has appointed fifty mounted assistants
This will be the largest parade of colored
people in the history of the state. The
manager of the fair, as well as the colored
people, are highly pleased with the tact
and. ability exhibited by Commissioner
Parker in his direction of the negro de-
partment.
It is generally conceded by all that the
negro department will be one of the most
unique features of the whole fair.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES -
AND ELSEWHERE

The Manufacturers Review is a Birniing-
ham trade and industrial journal the first
edition of which was issued yesterday.
II will appear twice month, and will seek
to properly and adequately present the
business and Industrial life of Birming-
ham, the mineral region and the entire
state: and if the initial number be accepted
as an earnest of what is to follow, all in
terested individuals, firms and companies
are to be congratulated without reserva-
ton. The Manufacturers Review Is a
most excellent and praiseworthy publiea-
ton, and one is prepared to believe that
1t will be entirely successful, since it merits
the cordial support of the public. 1t covers
matters very fully, accurately and ably;
and thus makes its own appeal for the
support of advertisers and that large sec
ton of an enlightened public which reads
news and views regarding subjects of en-
iightenment. This new industrial review is
edited by N P. T. Finch, who has been
for many years deeply interested in the
material development of the south generally
and the Birmingham territory especially;
and who has information thereto relating
ecualed by very few men, indeed, and sur
passed by none whatever. Moreover, Mr..
Finch has the happy gift of being compe
tent to impart his information happily.
The Manufacturers Review will succeed.
AS to that there cannot now be any sort
of doubt. The first issue is filled with vau-
able information printed in a clear, clean
and attractive form.
N j. Lilard of the Montgomery Journal,
is in Birmingham.
Governor Johnston spent yesterday at his
private office in the Alabama National bank
building, and was busy all day receiving

There are numerous cases of what Is
called typhoid fever in Birmingham and
the district but the form of the malady is
mild. One clergyman stated yesterday that
ten members of his congregation were suf-
fering from Typhoid. There is always a
doubt in the public mind whether genuine
typhoid exists in Birmingham; but there is
no reason why that fever should not pre-
vail here, as it is known In every other
quarter of the known earth. Typhoid fever
respects no locality, no person. 1t is worse
even upon the mountain sides than it is in
the valley. This much is true of it's germs.

GOmperS Not Wanted.

The Silver Bow trade and labor
assembly of Butte, Montana, has pass
ed the following resolution ament the
intended visit of Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, to the west:
Whereas, The Silver Bow trade and
labor assembly does not recognize any
| authority over it by the American
| Federation of Labor, and
Whereas, On the occasion of the
journeymen's horseshoers union diff
ficulty with the Anheuser Busch
Brewing association, Samuel Com
pers assumed the right to assure the
Anheuser Busch Brewing association
that the Silver Bow trade and labor
assembly would not take up the griev-
ance of the journeymen's horseshoers
union against said brewing company
! without the consent of Samuel Com
pers, thereby giving ground for the
supposition that Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, had authority over the Sill
yer Bow trade and labor assembly,
and
Whereas, The condition Of organ
lied labor in Silver Bow county are so
well taken care of by the Silver Bow
trade and labor assembly, the West
ern Federation of Miners and the
Western Labor union, that there is
no occasion for any official of the
American Federation of Labor to Of
fer his valuable assistance unsolicited
toward bettering the condition of Ia

Resolved, By the Silver Bow trade
and labor assembly of Butte, Montana,
that we do not consider the proposed
visit Of Samuel Gompers as president
of the American Federation of Labor,

; The Benefit
!! of Trusts.
by ID A Petre.

THE climax of prosperity (Which
ordinarily means general gain)
according to the rules of compe-
tition, is at last reaching the apex Of
perfection; the Standard Oil Co., the
tarantula of byegone days, is still a
centapede, and the Godfather Of all
other trustifcations, be they good Or
evil. We have witnessed in the past
few years SO many organized concerns
that the word trust has become as
ancient as Noah's ark, which was the
greatest trust the world ever heard of:
all outside of this ark trust was the
'Ccffin Trust" which in this 10Th
century is again being resurrected.
Just think of the absurtlity! Who is
going to promote a Cemetery Trust"
to beat the coffin organization, and de-
fraud the grave-digger?
The next proposed trust will possibly
be found in an Anti-Marrage Trust,
which will permit only certain class
Of people to engage in the perpetual
tion of the race, so as to exclude 4
Populistic brood, which is attempting
to rule the capitalistic classes, and to
ccnfine marriage rights to the favored
few, who could glory in their seclus-
iveness, and end their years of exult-
ant pride by working for themselves.
The question now arrives, who are
they, of the oilers who are going to
be"trusted'to to get a days work? Some
one can answer this question. others
car also predict what the wage out
come will be if those outside the trusts
do not organize a greater one.

On the Unfair List.

On the 9th of January, 1899, the
Detroit Cigar Co. reduced prices one
dollar per thousand, involving abou;
forty of our members. The facts are
us follows: This firm was the prime
mover in our last big strike which
proved SO disastrous to the union and
members involved. Now, when we are
working under one Of the lowest bills
of prices in the country, this firm
would reduce us still lower and selects
the worst month in the year when
everybody wants work and money.
What we would ask you to do, is to re-
fer this to your label committee or to
your executive board that they may
ascertain if any of the cigars manufac-
tured by this firm, are sold in your
city, and if so. we would ask you to
deal with them accordingly.
We ask no money. but for your help
in our behalf in your locality.
Hoping to hear from you,
We remain yours fraternally.
