A Small Boys Outfit.

Gillie Allen, the youngest son of
Mr.. and Mrs. G.. H. Allen, is not a
very large specimen of humanity
being only nine years old, but he
is about the happiest youpgster in
town. He owns a gray horse
which is g%entleness itself, and
someone gave him a buggy and
harness, both of which have seen
their best days. He bitches the
combination up, fastens a sheep
bell to the collar and no king ever
drove through his dominions with
more pride or pomp than Gillie
drives down town, accompanied as
he always is, by his boy friends.
The turnout is well worth see-

A Rich Body of Cop
Per Ore Struck
at a depth
OF $50 Feet.-Vein Matter a Dark
Gray Color and Will Run
About IS per cent,
Copper.

Hon. George Ferris and James
Rendle came in from the Rudefe-
ha this morning bringing in spec
linens of an ore body just struck
in the new shaft, at a depth of $50
feet. They have cross-cut the
vein for six feet at this time but
have not gotten through it, so it is
not known how wide it is at the
point of contact. The ore is of a
dark grayish color, and very rich
in copper and will probably run
as high as Is per cent. The pres
ent strike is about 100 feet below
the bottom of the old shaft.
The Importance of this strike
cannot be overestimated and will
be fully realized by all mining
men, for it proves beyond the
shadow of a doubt that the Rude
feha is a copper mine, the quality
and quantity of whose ore body
challenges the world for compar,
ison.

Former Birmingham Preacher
Gained EnviabIe Reputation.
Is LOCATED AT CLEVELAND
Beloved and Admired by a Large Con-
gregation-Pastor of One of the
Wealthiest Churches in the
State of Ohio
Is LOCATED AT CLEVELAND

The many friends of Rev. w. L. Pickard,
formerly pastor of the First Baptist church
of this city, will read with pleasure tine fol-
lowing notice, which appeared i'm the Gin
clnnad Enquirer of last Saturday:
REV. w. L. Packard, D. D., pastor of the
First Baptist church ait Cleveland, comes
to Walnut Hills Baptist church Monday
evening to conduct "a series of revivals for
two weeks. Pastor Cassidy and congrega-
ton are uighly pleased at having secured
this NOTED evangelist, as they feel that phey
and all local churches will receive spiritual
good from his coming.
REV Mr.. Packard was born in the south
about the time of the breaking out OF the
war. and graduated at the Louisville iheo-
logical Seminary. He was pastor or une
great Broadway Baptist church OF LOUIS
vile, and ono of THE most popular preach
ers in the city and THE south. In 1897 ne
was called to the First Baptist church Of
Cleveland one of 1.-THE oldest and wealthiest
churches in THAT city, which has recently
built a magnificent structure for Worship
ON Euclid avenue This church has had
some of the most prominent men in the de-
nomination as pastors. Scarcely had DR..
TDCkdru begun MS WOrh III SISNeidHu NC
fore his house was filled to overlooking,
and HE speedily became one of the most
popular preachers in the city of Cleveland.
DR. Packard is not an evangelist in the or
binary sense, but naturally loves evangel-
istic work. His church has consented TO
spare him for two weeks for a series of
meetings on Walnut Hills.
"Dr. Pickard has rapidly made a reputa-
ton in the state of Ohio as am attractive
and forcible speaker at state conventions,
mass missionary meetings and other large
gatherings. He was one off the lecturers at
Hiawatha Park Assembly last summer and
the most popular of all. He is an easy and
fluent speaker and a man of the highest
culture, using no sensational methods and
holding his audience by his learning and
high culture, wide information, beautiful
language and original way of putting
things. He is far different from many
evangelsts in that his sermons are highly

efN4w York, November 15.-During the pro-

ADVANCE IN PRICES
NOT IMPROBABLE.
Remarkable Strength of the Iron
Market.
MANY NEW ORDERS BOOKED
President Baxter of Tennessee Company
Reviews the Situation : Further
~ C+1olze l., El,,.~.

The iron market has shown remarkable
strength for the past ten days and although
prices have remained unchanged, a sharp
advance is not improbable within the next
few days.
Many orders for delivery well into next
year have been booked during the past week
and if the demand continues prices will nee
essarily improve. In speaking of the situa-
ton yesterday President Baxter, of the
Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company
said:
"The market continues very strong and
for the last ten days the proportion of or
ders booked for extended deliveries into
next year is greater than for several pre-
ceding weeks. 1 have heard predictions
during the past week from persons who oc-
cupy very prominent positions in the iron
trade, that there would he a substantial
advance in prices within short time. This
may be true. In view of the fact that all
of the companies as far as my knowledge
goes, are so fully sold for some months to
come, q y considerable DuylnS Wouiu ueS-
essarily improve prices.
without exception those who have plac-
ed orders in the past several months have
evidently, in view of the high prices pre-
vailing, covered their wants. scantily, as Is
manifest by the urgency with which they
call for deliveries on their contracts. In
truth. in the last week we have had a num-
Der of requests for us to anticipate engage
ments into next year, and as favor to the
customers, to make deliveries now on some
portion of their contracts which we are
not engaged to deliver for many months
ahead This situation is fully sustained by
| authoritative statements that notwithstand-
ing the low point to which stock of iron
at furnaces and warrant yards had been
| reduced. yet they were again reduced in the
! month of October by 1900 tons-S,000 in the
furnace yards and 5000 in the warrant
yards.
| 1.-The stocks of coke iron on furnace yaros
on November /, 1899, were $1,000, against
ss9. 900 tons year ago, $4,000 in 1897 and
900 in 1896.
1.-THE stocks in the warrant yards Noyem-
her 1. 1899, were 900 tons, against 100000
tons on the same date in 1896"

COTTON CROP
A Conservative Estimate of $4,000
Bales of the Staple

Atlanta. Ca, November 1.-THE Consti-
tuition, which has all the season been ad-
vocating higher prices for cotton, will pub
lish tomorrow estimates of the crop from
prominent men in the cotton growing
states.
r. E. Morgan, one of Arkansas largest
dealers, wiring from Little Rock, says:
Cotton is being rushed to market to re-
lease present remunerative prices. With
identical weather and the same conditions
as in 1896, when the crop was 100000 bales,
this crop is now 100000 bales behind that
year. The present crop cannot under any
conditions exceed S,500,O0O bales"
Montgomery, Ala. reports:
Scarcely any cotton has been brought
for two or three weeks. Many conserva-
tive handlers of the staple insist that the
crop will not exceed S,500,000 bales"
Practically all the cotton crop of North
Carolina is gathered, but little remaining
on bottom land. 1t has been gathered
much earlier than ever before. The opin-
ion seems to be that the crop cannot ex-
coed 900 bales This is based on the
present and last year in North Carolina.
In South Carolina ithe crop is harvested
There is little top crop in the low coun-
try yet to be gathered, but this will moi
materially affect the yield. There was less
cotton planted than last year, and the ydelt
in South Carolina has been in the vicinity
of 100000 bales as against 1000 900 bales fol
an average crop.
This ratio will bring the crop to 10000
The production of cotton in Tennessee
during the past season was very light. The
crop has been removed from the fields and
UP to date but 1871 bales have been handled
at Nashville. According to reports gather
ed from over the state, the crop is short, in
dicating in the cotton belt. If the same
ratio holds UP, about $500 bales.
Every day the shortage of the cotton
crop in Texas becomes more apparent. The
yield for the present year is conservatively
stated at one third off from last year The
receipts are governed by the same anxiety
of farmers to sell which always exists, and
the talk of extensive holding back on the
Fart of farmers is discredted by all coun-
try merchants. who are in the best position
to know the facts.
Continuing the Constitution says: RE
ports gathered from all parts of the cotton
belt, would Indicate, conServatively, a yield
of 6 750 900 bales,

In using medicines to stop pain we should
avoid such as inflict injury on the system.
Opium, morphine, chloroform, ether, CO.
caine and choral stop pain by destroying
the sense of perception, the patient losing
the power of feeling. This is a most de-
structive practice; 1t masks the symptoms,
shuts up and instead of removing trouble,
breaks down the stomach, liver and bowels,
and, If continued for length of time, kills
the nerves and produces local or general
paralysis.
