CROCKERY BY THE
 THOUSAND PIECES
ONE HUNDRED FORTY THOUS. AND ARTICLES OF CHINA AND HUNDRED THOUSAND OF GLASS WARE FOR HILLMAN.

One of the biggest items in furnishing glassware for the dining rooms. which alone represents an investment in the neighborhood of $15,0O0.
 These goods were purchased through the firm of Loveman, Joseph & Loeb and were selected by c. H. Nabb, proprietor of the hotel. and Leo Loeb. it requiring eighteen days to make the selections.
 There are over one hundred and forty thousand pieces of glassware. In the list of china there are twelve thousand cups and saucers, twelve thousand individual creams and seven thousand sugar recep- tacles. There are twenty-four thousand five hundred plates of various sizes and eight thousand fruit and oatmeal dishes.
 Several cars were required to convey the goods from Trenton, N. J., to Bir- mingham. One hundred and twenty-five barrels were used to pack the glassware. It took two days for six men to unpack the goods, and the same time for two two-horse drays to haul the stuff from the depot to the hotel.
 The decorations are of peacock blue and on each piece there is a crescent with the words 'Hillman Hotel"
 The new hotel will be open for inspec- ton by the public today, and will open for business tomorrow. The Hillman will be on both the American and European plan.

Will Discuss the Merits of the New Constitution in
 Joint Debate
ASKS FOR DIVISION HERE
General Shelley Has Not Received a Reply to His Request to Chair
 man Underwood About
 Thursday Night Meeting.

Hon. John B. Knox and Hon. Jesse Stallings will meet in joint debate today at Opelika on the subject of the new con- stitntion. Chairman Underwood has not as yet replied to the request of the anti ratificationists for division of time at the meeting here Thursday night
 General Charles M. Shelley. chairman of the anti-ratifcation campaign committee, said last night that he wrote to Chair man Underwood last Friday asking for a division of time at the meeting which is to be held In the Jefferson Theatre, and which is to be addressed by Hon John B. Knox In behalf of the new constitution, next Thursday night; but that he had received no reply to his request.
 Turn About, Fair Play.
 "I made the request purely as a matter courtesy and in good faith" General Shelley said.
 'Of course we had no right in the premises; 1t will not be our meeting; but seeming that we consented to divide time with the supporters of the constitution in our meeting in Montgomery, thought the other side might extend the same courtesy to us in Birmingham, and the only person who could possibly have any objection to division of time at the Bir- mingham meeting would be MT. Knox himself
 'The object was and Is to have both sides of the new constitution issue pre- sented to the voters from the same plat form in the same meeting; that is. to give the voters the opportunity to hear the arguments for and against the new con- stitution at the same time, so that they can form their own opinions the more in- telligently from wider information.
 Divide Time Today.
 MT. Knox and MT. Stallings will divido time at a meeting in opelika tomorrow Monday, and that Is as 1t should be- The voters will hear both sides of the ques- tion argued in the same meeting. We who are opposing the new constitution desire the people to be fully informed, and we favor joint discussion, or division of time, wherever it can be had. Above all things, we desire the new constitution discussed fully and freely, and then let the people make the momentous decision for themselves. The people are going to act this time, and have no doubt as to the result. The people will reject the new constitution.
 "The more I study that outrageous suffrage plan the more I am amazed that 1t finds supporters
 May Spring a Surprise.
 Lee Cowart, who is named as chairman of the Jefferson County standardization committed, will today make public the names of his committee. There will be some surprises in the names, 1t Is said.

EXPECTS NEW TRIAL.
Frank Duncan Now Pins His Faith to
 Supreme Court.

Frank Duncan, member of the Miller Duncan gang and who is in the county jail under sentence of death for the kill ing of Officer Kirkley. does not seem to be disturbed at his sentence. Judge s. E. Greene on Saturday fixed December 6 as the day of his execution, but the execu- tion of the sentence has been stayed pending his appeal to the Supreme Court.
 Duncan is not disheartened and seems to have hopes of the Supreme Court granting him new trial. His appetite is good, and while he is quiet and does not talk much, he seems wholly unconcerned.
 Duncan is one of the best prisoners I ever handled' says Warden Berry. "He always behaves himself and never makes an unreasonable request"
 Duncan has been in jail for more than a year and half. His health is good in spite of his long confinement He has been kept in his cell ever since the at- tempt of Miller, West, Edwards and himself to escape,

 Fourteen students from Cuba and Porto Rico.

 My feeling grows stronger each year that perhaps in the heat of passion, growing out of racial and sectional prejudice, we have not given the Southern people due credit for the immense amount of help rendered the negro during the period he was slave. The negro as a slave was started on the foun- dation of agriculture, mechanics and household arts"

Rumor That Republic Officials Sought Site at Newport
 News Not Credited
THERE ON OTHER BUSINESS
w. P. Pinckard Who Consolidated the Properties of Corporation Be- Ileves Mill Will be Locat-
 ed In This District.

Little credence is given the story from Newport News. Vas printed in the Age Herald Sunday, saying President Thomp- son and other officials of the Republic Iron and Steel Company were there look ing for site for a steel plant. It was said in Birmingham last night that the party visited Newport News for an en- tirely different purpose.
 In speaking of the story, w. P. Pinck- ard, who is in q position to know some thing of the intentions of the Republic Company, said:
 There Is nothing in the story tele- graphed from Newport News that the president and directors of the Republic Iron and Steel Company are there look ing for a site for a steel-making plant President Thompson and the other direc- tors travelled from Birmingham to New port News upon the invitation of one of their number, who has interests there, and they are in sense the guests of this director.

When President Thompson was leaving Birmingham Wednesday he stated simply to the press that his party was going to Richmond. The next day a high official of the Southern Railway who was here with Vice President Finley said:

Hungry Hog.

bob, called Mr.. Jones, "from
the racket down in the field, guess
the hogs in the corn again! &c help
John get him outl Then if you'll 6nd
where she gets in Ill give you half
dollar to 60 to the circus"
Bob went down into the field, and,
with John and the dog, chased the
hog for an hour trying to make him
60 out where he had como in. The
chase was in vain, however, as
they had to lay the fence down at
last.
This was the fourth time the hog
had been in the corn within three
days, and he was making havoc of the
tender roasting ears. Mr.. Jones had
been all around the field twice, but not
break in the fence could he find.
John also made the trip, butreported,
there WASN'T hole big enough for a
ground hog to get through, let alone
that old four-foot razorback." Then
the hired man went on search for
''hog hoIes.' He, too, failed to find
where the hog got in. 1t was his firm
belief that somebody let him in, or
that he climbed over the nine-rail
fence.
But, in spite Of past failures, after
Bob had rested and cooled off awhile
in the shade, he started out with the
full determination of solving the mys-
terry. Beginning at the northwest
corner, he carefully examined every
PANEL of the rail fence around the
field.
"Wol!, that do beat cats a-scratch-
in, he muttered, as he climbed up on
the fence to think. ''Not a hole big
enough for weasel. Guess he must
climb tree and jump over"
But Bob was not beaten. He had
determined that the old hog should
not keep him out of the circus. He
decided to play detective. knowing
how greedy the old hog was, he knew
he would be trying to get back in less
than an hour. He had some little
trouble in finding him in tho woods
below. Sure enough, he was already
headed toward the corn6eld. Keep
ing out Of sight, Bob followed him.
He rooted along loisurely until he
came to the branch. Onco in the
branch, he started off on trot for the
field, grunting complacentlyi as he
went.
Just as he got to tho fence Bob lost
sight Of him, but heard scramble
and loud squcaling. When he came
up the hog was gathering corn to beat
patent corn gatherer.
But the mystery was solved. Ia
laying the worm of the fence across
the branch large log had been used,
and it was hollow. The hog had
crawled through it. Bob laid the
fence down, drove the hog out, then
rebuilt tho fence, leaving out the
log.
He hid after this was done to sec
what tho hog would next do. In just
q little while he. came trotting back
with that sclf-satisfied grunt, wriggled
into the log and came squealing out at
the other end. To his surprise, there
was no corn in sight. Then he trotted
around to the other end and crawled
through again. This he did three
| times before he was ready to give it
up.
Bob not only went to the circus, but
had lf-dollar extra for lemonade
and peanuts.
