BREWTON
Letter Acknowledgment Bryan's
 Private Secretary

Brewton, October 29.-(Speclal. .)-Several days ago party of drummers who were temporarily in Brewton sent to Hon. w. J. Bryan an estimate of the electoral vote. Today the following letter was received from MT Bryans private secretary:
 Lincoln, Neb., October 25, 1900 MT. c. II. HaIshbarger and Others, Brew ton Ala:
 "ientemen:-Your favor of the 18th in- stant, directed to MT. W. J.

The Prospective First Lady
 of the Land Goes Shopping

The movements of Mrs. William Jennings Bryan during her visit to New York are being written of in that fascinating vein peculiar to New York papers in discussing women in whom national interest is cen- tered, for both the friends and foes of the great Democratic leader acknowledge that in the achievement of his hopes the strong est inspiration has come from his wife, and that the White House could not be graced by a stronger or more gracious per sonality than that of Mrs. Bryan.
 Mrs. Bryan says a writer in the New York Journal, has all the boise that is essential to the wife of a Presidential can- didate. She demonstrated this yesterday afternoon by attending to her autumn shopping with a quiet, good-humored dig nity, while the women who were making purchases in the same department stores lost their shopping lists and fairly went off their heads with excitement on discov- ering she was present.
 .As a good housekeeper she had a great

deal of autumn shopping to do, and Mrs. Bryan never forgets her home and it's ob- legations, though political battles rage fiereely at its very doors
 A glance at this sweet-faced woman. with her ready smile, gentle reserve and lack of anything approaching nervous ten- sion enables one to understand much of MT Bryan's power
 Looks as if she'd make things com fortable at home, an elderly woman in a black bonnet put it.
 And that summed up Mrs Bryan's per- sonality in a sentence. When a woman with a 16-year-old daughter nas no lines in her face it is safe to conclude that she understands the art of home-making.
 .eThe average woman in Mrs Bryan's po- sition would have fretted over the number of rooms in the White House, read all the papers, decided she was threatened with nervous prostration and needed headache medicine ana darkened room.
 Mrs. Bryan is staying with the wife of Dr. John B. Gdrdner, at No. 31 West Forty-fffth street. Both ladies made their appearance shortly after l o'clock, entered an open carriage and were rapidly driven in the direction ot Sixth avenue.
 Mrs. Bryan wore black serge skirt, cut after the prevailing mode silk waist of eeru, with tiny flower design, and smart black lace hat. Every shopper will feel akin to Mrs. Bryan when it is said
 
 what really attractive woman ever made of her pocket for this purpose?"
 In the first shop visited by Mrs. Bryan and her friend fur boas were the object of the quest, but after trying on several Mrs. Bryan concluded 1t was too warm to make such wintry purchases.
 At the next store she was recognized by the crowd of women shoppers, who elbow ed and josted 60 catch a glimpse of the probable future First Lady.
 little incident, characteristic Of Mrs. Bryan, occurred during the purchase Of tortoise-shell comb. She was greatly at tracted by a certain design, but hestated over the price. The saleswoman then pro- duced the same style Of comb in imitation tortoise shell.
 Tt is very pretty, but l do not like things that pass for what they are not"
 Mrs. Girdner smiled. Her friend had eX- pressed her personality in a sentence.
 A pair of white evening gloves were the next pureaase. What d volume might be written on those little white gloves.
 Will they be extended in gracious well come by the wife of our next President? Will they give q gentle pressure of encour- agement to the tlust-frted multitude who swarm to greet her? If so, the White House will boast most gracious mistress = the country the sweetest of First Ladies'"

Tonlaht at the Country Club.

Thursday is All Saints Day, and this evening Is consequently All Hallow Fen" Out at the Country Club 1t will again be celebrated. All Hallow Fen, or Hallow E'en as it is usually called, has not been very much observed here of late years, but the large and interested crowd of people who bobbed for apples and ehewed up rib bons with marshmallows tied into the mid dle of them and a pretty girl on the other end and sailed fortune boats, and had their palms read, and cut flour and did a.dozen other weird mystic and ridiculous things last year, are anxious to do it all again this year, and so a committee has been actively engaged in digging out pumpkins to make poke-o' '-moonshine and arranging the vari- other fateful symbols and decorations to give them that pleasure. Some very novel features have been added for this cason; the ballroom is being glassed in; big wood fires, warranted not to smoke will be blazing in the open fireplaces, and a gen. orally good informal fun and easy time may be expected out at the club house. The Hallow Fen games seemed to be entirely new to most of the people last year, who were much too dignified and wore too good clothes to sit down in chair and be fed with flour in a long-handled spoon, blind folded, for instance; but this year the run promises to be better worth seeing. Mem bers of the Country Club who are at all nervous about "hants" had better by all means stay at home. because, as for ghosts and "hants," the place will just be alive with them. One of them may even lead the german. There will be dancing, of course; refreshments-just maybe so-but general good time from half-past on to the mystic and Hateful hour of midnight.

Miss Murdoch Calls Meeting
 of Committee for Charity Ball

The charity ball that will be the social event of the holidays is being discussed by society with that interest that insures not only a success of the brilliant social cir cle, but that the beautiful women of so ciety who are arranging the details of the ball are ever responsive to the noble cause of charity ard that they are working to make the approaching ball not only the most elaborate social function that has been given in Birmingham in many years, but that 1t shall be a notable financial success as well. That the proceeds from the ball will go to swell the Hillman hos pital fund has made the cause for which it. will be given one in which universal in terest Is centered, and while the tickets have not been placed on sale there is every indication that there will be as great de- mand for them.
 Mrs w. l.. Murdoch, chairman of the ticket committee, yesterday appointed the following women to assist in distributing tickets for the ball, the committee includ- ing a number of the most prominent and popular married women in society and number of younger belleS and beauties. Mrs. Murdock calls q meeting of her com- mittee next Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock in the parlors of the Morris Hotel, when the best methods of distributing the ball tickets will be discussed.
 A Birmingham belle yesterday declared that she would assist in making the chari- ty ball success, but that she could not sell tickets, as she had always been un- successful In selling anything. But here a charming young matron suggested that the only thing to be done was to discuss the coming ball with all the club men, and when one indicated that he was particu- larly interested in the event, and showed a desire to promote the cause of charity, to immediately suggest that he would take a number of tickets and place them on sale at his club, and to look after the sale himself. The Birmingham beauty smiled at this suggestion and said that after all dsposing of tickets was not serious matter she anticipated. The following women are urged to meet Mrs Murdoch next Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock in the parlors of the Morris:
 Mrs. Jack Johnston Mrs. Walker Percy, Mrs. Webb Crawford, Mrs Henry l.. Bad ham, Mrs. D. w. Barrett, Mrs. Charles Da- wis, Mrs. Lalla Hillman, Miss Lillian Ro-
