 taiiers of this country, are fully abreast with the times, and for beauty. sym metry and comfort American-made shoes surpass any nation on the globe. As to prices, the steady introduction Of all the labor saving machinery neces- sary to accomplish that end. has put 1t within the power of the retailer to give better values for the same prices than can be obtained in any of the older countries. Shoes are sold in Montgomery at as reasonable rates as in any of the large cities. and l am glad to note that the consumer is fast finding this out, for but few years ago quite a large number Of single pair orders were sent East; whereas now you rarely hear of such an occur renee. On the whole, the shoe retailers .aaf, ,MontKomery are more than pleased -N4Sh the past years business, which will show according to my information an Increase over last year of at least 70 per cent, and that was one of the most prosperous years ever enjoyed by the Montgomery merchants. The prospects for a good fall and winter are excellent and the shoe men will be fully prepared to meet the demands of customers by having ample stocks of new and up-to date shoes. My observations are that Montgomery is continually extending her trading territory in the retail as we'll as wholesale lines. and also note a large increase in mall orders. This is as 1t should be, for we certainly command the confidence of the people by the service we render them, and then. too. our city is in easy reach of c large portion of the State.''

THE MASSEY COLLEGE.
Principal Phillips, a Well Known
 Educator

Throughout the South the Massey Business Colleges are famous. but none stands higher than that located in this city. This is due, in great measure, to Prof. W. N. Philips, the Principal. Professor Philips began the study or shorthand, and in less than three months was rendered the. principalship of the shorthand department of Pro- lessor Massey's College in Columbus, Ga, but, recognizing, his great abii- ity, he was transferred by Professor Massey to Birmingham, and. as a fur. ther promotion, was made principal of the Montgomery College. Professor Philips's reputation is not confined to the South. In March of this year. ne received a letter from MT. J. Cliff ford Kennedy. notifying him that he had been elected a charter member and made the State representative or the National Shorthand and Commercial Teachers Association. In his letter, Professor Kennedy, President Of the Association, refers to Professor Philips as the foremost instructor In the South"

 cause Reliable.
 One of the best known cotton firms of Montgomery is the Sellers & Drum Company, which has just occupied the Hunter and o'Connell Compress ware houses near the Union Depot. In It's new quarters the company is better prepared than ever to handle the busl- ness of it's customers. because of. it's increased storage space and improved facilities for weighing and handling cotton. The change was made neces- sary by the fact that the business done by the firm had become so large that more space was needed
 The firm also handles. in season. all kinds of fertilizers.
 For many years Messrs. John A. Sei- lers, w. J. Drum and A. H. McNeel, the President, Vice President and Sec retary and Treasurer, respectively, have been engaged in the cotton busi- ness in this city. The firm is the di- rect successor of Allen. Belhune Ss Co.,, who were pioneer cotton men in Mont- Somery. MT. McNeel became assocl- ated With Captain Josiah G. Allen in 1876, and continued with him and his successors since that time. Messrs. Sellers and Drum have also been en- gagged In the business many years. mus 1t will be seen that they have the experience, and their success shows that they have the confidence of the planters.
 The Sellers & Drum Company also handle the Lowry Round Bale, and is authorized by the Lowry Company to pay the 45 points premium over the square bale. which will be done uutil the offer is withdrawn by the Round Bale penp.e. One round bale 'vIlI be handled for half the price charged for square bale-in other words, the sellers x Drum Company will receive. WeiSh ana store two round hales at :he price charged for one square bale.
 The members of the firm keep a close watch on the business. and give strict. personal attention to every detail. MT Sellers Is at the head os the loan. class ing and selling department: MT. Drum is the principal weigher, he receiving and delivering all the cotton. and Mir McNeel is in charge of the books. at tending to everything pertaining to tbe office. Business methods prevail fin all transactions. and proper care and pa- tient attention are given every GUS toner.
 The company has ample money to back it.. it being capitalized at $50. 900.
 The offices and warehouses of Il Sellers & Drum Company are at the corner of Coosa and Tallapoosa Streets. The location for q business of the Aini cannot be surpassed. Tn close proxim- ity tc the Union Depot. it is convenient for customers. an1 being situated right at the railroads. the shipping facili- ties are splendid. The commodious warehouses have nearly double the ca pacity of the one formerly used by the firm. The office and s1lesrooms are large and handsomely fitted up. none in tho city being superior tO them,

BUSINESS COLLEGES.
A NEW INSTITUTION.
The Montgomery Business College Deserves Patronage.

The Montgomery Business College Deserves Patronage.
 Recently there has been established in Montgomery an institution which, at the time of its opening, did not, per haps, receive the attention due 1t from the public. The Montgomery Business College Is referred to. This is a home institution and deserves the patronage of Montgomerians and all other Ala bamians. Prof. l.. LeMay, the princi- pal. has no superior In the South as an educator in commercial lines. He has been connected with some of the larg- est business colleges of the country. and resigned the principalship of the Draughon Business College to establish the Montgomery Business College.
 A splendid location on Dexter Ave- nue has been leased, and will be occu- pied after October. The building is . new one, and Is admirably fitted for the purpose intended.
 Although the Montgomery Business College has been open only a short time, already the attendance Is large, and if the present rate of increase con- tinues, it shortly will have . larger number of pupils than any similar school in the State. The rate of tuition Is low; there Is one price for all. and every one Is treated alike.
 The curriculum includes bookkeeping. stanography, commercial law and cor respondence. ren lettering and mime ographing, calculations, typewriting. arithmetic, penmanship, spelling, in- dexing English copying, business GUS toms. practical talks. whoiesaling and banking.

Retail Grocery Business.

Tn discussing the retail grocery busi- ness for the past year, Mir. J. A. Schneider said: The retail grocery trade has held up well throughout the year and those engaged in the business find nothing to complain of. At the present time, many persons are out of the city spending the heated term, and, of course, when a man has twenty-five or thirty good customers away, 1t makes a difference in his receipts that is appreciable. At the same time, however. the fact that per- sons are able to take summer outings is evidence that they have money to spend. We look for a splendid trade this fall.
