with the virtues of corn bread. Properly made, it Is the best bread that Is made. more wholesome, nutritious, and healthy 1t is a remarkable and a lamentable fact that comparatively few cooks in this country know how to make good corn bread. It Is rarely to be found 1 ma ho- tel; 1t Is comparatively unknown in boarding houses, where so many crimes are committed in the matter of cooking; few people in the city know how to make It, and 1t is not often met with in the country. where corn bread Is largely used and where it ought to reach per lection. It would be wise benefaction of some wealthy philanthropist would endow a school to teach the art of mak- ing good corn bread and the variety of ways in which cornmeal can be made palatable. When the European peasant learns to appreciate the virtues of corn bread he will no more be content with the abominahle black bread and the cigar shaped loaves of adamantine crust and spongy. ductile contents. which he calls bread.

COTTON CROP IS SHORT.
Condition in Autauga County Far
 from Encouraging.

Prattville. Oct. 1o.-{Special. )-Reports on the condition of the cotton crop for this section are not very encouraging. There is absolutely no top crop this year. There was light frost two days last week In portions of the county. Several reput- able citizens reported white frost last week.
 Attorney H. E.. Gipson has been ap- pointed chairman of the Campaign Com mittee to conduct the campaign for rati- tication of the new Constitution in this county. He will take hold of the cam- paign and see that the people are sup and that several of the best speakers in the State have appointments in the coun- ty before the day of the election. It is not thought now that there is any need for an active campaign, as large ma jority of the intelligent white voters are already in favor of the ratification of the new Constitution. Taking reports from the men from the country. it Is clear that wherever the new instrument Is read and compared with the old the intelligent voter. without single exception, is in favo. of the new. It is common for man to say he Is opposed to ratification; agree that it is a superior instrument for the welfare of the people to the old.
 Your correspondent saw this week an ear of Indian corn, grown on the planta. ton of Henry Hawlinson. near here. which Is believed to be one of the great- est curiosities ever seen in the shape Of an ear of corn. It was apparently an ordinary ear of corn. but when the ''shuck' was removed 1t appeared that each grain of corn was neatly covered with tiny ''shuck' and clung to the cob with greater firmness than usual but when separated from the cobb the "shuck' readily dropped from the grain and a perfectly formed grain is seen. One gentleman suggested that 1t would be a good stock corn as horse would get forage with the corn. It will be planted next season in an effort to prop agate the kind.

Moore-Pickering.

Uniontown. Oct. 10.-(Special 1.-The Presbyterian Church was filled to its utmost capacity last night by those who had come to see the marriage of Miss Mag. Pickering and MT. Hayward Moore. The decorations for the event showed consummate skill and artistic taste. The prevailing colors were green and white,
 and the color scheme had been carried
 out with great effect. Palms, potted
 plants, trailing vines and ferns, over
 white backgrounds produced a scene oi
 beauty. The organist and members of tho
 choir were concealed from the view oi
 the audience by a profusion of palms
 ferns, etc.

 ding march, rendered with rare skill by
 Miss Helen White, the bridal party en.
 tered as follows:
 First, the ushers, two ascending each aisle, crossing in front of the altar, and
 taking positions on each side of the rostrum. Then came the groom, leaning upon the arm of the best man. They entered the church at the pulpit door and took their stand in front of the minister facing the audience. Up each aisle came a couple, a bridesmaid and groomsman, crossing the platform at the side and taking positions on either side of the off, ficiating minister. After them came other dHu SiHely anu by twos, alternately, passing in front of the altar, and assuming positions on either side thereof. Then came the maid of honor and bride leaning upon the arm of the matron of honor. At the sacred altar, the bride took the arm of the groom, and Rev. MT. Robertson said in- pressiveIy the words that united the hearts and futures of the contracting parties. During the ceremony the organ rendered soft music, and the party retired to the inspiring strains of the march.
 Following is the bridal party:
 Ushers, Messrs J. P. Brown, J. N. Mc- Lean and Simms; attendants. Miss Reba Walden with R. D. Hart, Miss Willie Hud- son with Joe Anderson. Miss Rec Ogletree with George McCurdy.
