Celestial information

New York, Feb. 11.-Professor Gustav
Meyer, OF Hoboken, who predicted that
Mrs. Mckinley would recover and that
her husband, the president. would be
slain by an assassin in. the month OF Sep
tember, and who foretold the second dock
fire In Hoboken last August, told re-
porter yesterday that all officials Of pris-
ons, warehouses, asylums and similar in
stitutions may this monah expect an epi-
demic OF outbreaks from the inmates
similar 10 that Of the escape OF the Bid
die brothers from the Pittsburg jail. The
stars, the professor said. had impaired
this information 10 him.
Professor Meyer is an astrologer. The
professor said that the greatest trouble
jailers and wardens would experience
would be this month. when. the stars
whispered, the very greatest precautions
should be taken to prevent wholesale es-
capes.
FEBRUARY TO BE EvENTFUL

eventful MONTH" the professor continued.
at the time OF this lunation, but as the
ruler OF this sign is the fortunate planet
Jupiter, and as Jupiter is posted I'm the
llth mansion Of the heavens together with
the evil plant Saturn, II will modify much
OF the evil indicated for this month.
''saturn's evil influence in the 18th man
sion Of the heavens shows that We will
hear of much trouble 10 our soldiers, - nd
also that our representatives abroad will
have trouble. Our foreign friends will
show some animosity toward US.

Mars was in conjunction or sfflicting the
benefic planet Venus, and as the planet
Mercury was also posted there s~ well
IL signifies that the authorities OF all

authorities should be prepared for sim

Cured al Pittsburg.

This evil Is strongly indicated TO oc-
cur during this month, when II will be
advisable that the greatest precauuon be
exercised, and ] therefore deem IL my
duty as an astrologer 90 warn the au-
thorities OF these institutions TO be on
their guard.
The evil planet Uranus. posted In the
ninth mansion OF the heavens, presages
some great shipwreok during this month
and IL win be well for all mariners 10 take
extra precaution- As the month advances
we shall hear OF much trouble through
commerce. and we shall read OF some
banks going under.
'"rhe stars further indicate that we
shall hear OF further great railroad ac-
cidents similar TO the recent horror I'm
the Grand Central tunnel. Another such
calamity Is indicated TO occur this month.

Fair Will Be Clean.

Allen J. Krebs, President of the Alab1- ma State Fair Association, today issued a card announcing positively that the State Fair would remain closed on Sun days. No gambling devices will be al lowed on the grounds and no effort will be made to violate the pool-selling law, though there will be some interesting races every day. The Ministers Union of Birmingham was up In arms because of intention of the association to keep the gates open on Sundays. The aban- donment of this idea will probably cause ministers who had intended preaching about it tomorrow at their services to change their program.

Sin9e the first days practice football has been the all-absorbing topic of conversation and the daily practices have been watched by large crowds of spectators. It now appears, however, that the bright prospects for winning team have been partially eclipsed. Yes terday the coach. Mir. Sedgwick. received a telegram. calling him to the bedside of his father, who is seriously i'll at his home in Vermont, The loss of the coach. while not necessarily permanent, at this critical juncture, is most unfortunate. 1.uckily for the team and for the Uni yersity Eli Abbott has agreed to coach the players until MT.

Abbott was a member of the famous Pennsylvania team of '93. and for num- Der of years past has been connected with the University of Alabama in the capacity of Gymnasium Instructor and ouartermaster. His name is a familiar one to sporting men throughout the state. The fact that MT. Abbott's ser vices have been secured has tended to cheer up the boys considerably and they are determined handicapped though they are ito play ball.

since the opening of college, has been coaching the scrubs. left yesterday for his home in Birmingham. Next week he will go to Columbia where he expects to take a course in medicine.
 The number of students enrolled up to this morning was 2Gs distributed in the order named: Former student. 13; new students, S7; law students, 51; co-eds. G. Thirty more law students have engaged board and are expected to arrive within a few days. The total enrolment bids fair to reach the 250 mark by the Christ mas holidays.
 President Abercrombie expresses him. self as highly gratified by the attend ance. He had apprehended that the fall ure of the crops in certain sections of the State would cut off the attendance; but such has not been the case to any appre- ciable extent. One noteworthy fact in this connection is the large proportion of students who have engaged board in the dormitories or barracks as they were formerly called. The concentration of such a large number of students-115-in practically the same building renders the maintenance of order quite perplexfng problem but so far the conduct of the student body. has been unexcelied, in fact better than when the number was less and under military control.
 At a recent meeting of the Athletic Association the following officers were unanimously elected for the ensuing year: O. w. Tucker of Clarke, President; D. 1T. Ellington of Mobile. Vice-Presi- dent; F.. H Hobbs og Dallas, Secretary and Treasurer; A. M. Pitts of Dallas, Manager of Baseball Team.

 The modified military system is meet ing all of the expectations of it's friends. The military feature this year will he confined to two drills per week and class instruction by the Commandant for the officers of the cadet corps. It will be the policy of the administration to minimize the military feature in so far as is con- Sistent with the law on the subject.
 To be convinced that Montgomery and Montgomery County are well represented at the University this year one need only glance at the list given below: James H. Kirkpatrick Frank Clark, Ed. M. Finch, R. Clyde Smith, William c. Holt, George S. Wilcox, Holland Smith, Owen D. Jones, Jesse l.. Jones, Allen Crenshaw and Shackelford.
 The first issue of The Crimson White, the weekly publication issued by the stu dent body, will appear next Tuesday. The editor-in chief is H. w. Roberts of Clay ton.
