The pork position is very firm, with
even stronger prices expected. A good
deal OF complaint is heard about the
high prices of pork and pork products.
but to one noting the rise in the prices
OF hogs the wonder is that hog products
are not even higher.

LOOKING ron YOUNG JAEssoN
His Father Believes Boy Was Enticed
Away by Tramps.

Fred Jansson. shoemaker at Church
Street, whose young son Oscar Jansson,
has twice left his home on Billing Street,
Oakley. within two weeks, believes the
boy has been enticed away by unscrupu-
lous persons Of mature age.
The boy, Mr.. Jansson says. Is ignorant
OF the methods of travelling and the
ways Of the world. The father points out
that his first trip from home indicated
That the runaway had been planned by
an experienced traveller.
On his first runaway trip Oscar ,Jansson
left home late In the afternoon and spent
the night in one of the open-all-night
Italian fruit stands. In the early morn
ing he made his way to the Bell Street
bridge and there caught a southbound
Louisville and Nashville train to Mobile.
From some of young Jansson's reported
conversations with trainmen, Mr.. Jansson
IL convinced that his son received in
structions from professional tramps.
The father believes that Oscar Jansson
has again made Mobile his objective
point and has sent notices to the police
of that city to watch for him.
Oscar Jansson left his home in Oakley
Tuesday. making the second runaway In
two weeks. His parents are making a
determined effort to locate the youngster.

Fixing Up for Fall and Winter Pas

The New Orleans States says:
Already the Louisville and Nashville
passenger department is preparing for
the fall campaign of advertising the Gulf
Coast. l.. j. Corbitt. Treasurer OF the
Corbitt Railway Printing Company of
Chicago, one Of the largest of such con-
Germs In the world, is in the city and will
remain here for the balance Of the week
looking over the local field.
Mr.. Corbltt will be Joined here by w.
B. Barry, head Of the Louisville and
Nashville advertising bureau, who comes
to consult with Mr.. Corbitt and Division
Passenger Agent Ridgely and will gather
his material for description of the beau
tiful gulf coast and the advantages en-
joyed there as a winter resort
Since the accession of Mr.. C. L. Stone
to the general passenger agency of the
l.. and N. there has been a notable re-
vivai OF enterprise and push in the pas
senger affairs of the road, the attractions
of New Orleans and the gulf coast have
especially been presented to winter tour
lists, and even in this short time the busi-
ness Of entertaining sojourners from the
North and East has been greatly stimu-
lated.
''Mr. Stone has said that the L. and N.
intended to do all 1t could to bring the
gulf coast before the people as a winter
as well as a summer resort, and he has
ample natural material to work upon.
"Coincident with this work other Inn
provements are said to be under contem-
plation in the way of train service, and
already much has been accomplished in
this line since Mr.. Stone assumed the
helm Of the passenger department, the
distinguished features being the magnif-
cent dining car and more recently the
elegant free chair car equipment, both
of which Innovations on the L. and N.
have proved a boon to travellers on that
route. The gulf coast literature Mr.. Bar
ry expects to get out by the early fall"

STATE CROPS SUFFERING.
Judge Carmichael Talks of Condi
lions at Convict Farms.

lions at Convict Farms.
In its farming operations, the State of
Alabama is suffering just as keenly
from the protracted drought as the hum
blest citizen. The crops that are growing
for the benefit of the State at convict
farms are burned and parched and the
outlook is decidedly gloomy.
At Wetumpka the States cotton is in
fairly good condition. There is a fair
chance for a good yield II the immediate
future holds any rain for this. section.
The corn is not all satisfactory, but its
condition might be worse. The States
corn is rather better than that belonging
to some of the surrounding farmers.
At the States Tallapoosa River planta-
tiSn, eight miles from the city, in Mont
g6mery, the effects Of the drought is pro-
I1ounced.
President j. NJ Carmichael of the State
Board of Convict Inspectors, said yes
terday: -
The drought has burned up a large
part of our corn, as 1t has that of farm
ers in all sections eff the State. In the
uplands practically no crop will be made
Warden Bush tells me that the growing
crops in places are literally burned up,
the ground being bare as if nothing had
been planted upon 1t this year. In the
bottom lands, however, the corn is fairly
good. am confident that we will get
enough corn to run the place for the COM
ing year.
'The cotton on the Tallapoosa River
place IL doing comparatively well, al
though suffering from the protracted dry
weather. We look for nearly an average
from our 175 acres of cotton"

TWO BOYS WITH GUNS
PusToLs CAUSED UNDoINa OF
PIKE COUNTY LADS.
A. B. Wesley and Barney Jordan

Weapons Concealed on
Their Persons.

Two small pistols tf the cheapest pat
tern and pair of b ass knuckles caused
the undoing Of A. p. Wesley and Barney
Jordan, white boys from the interior Of
Pike County.
These Pike County boys carried the
weapons in their hip pockets when they
came to town to see the sights. Now
they are in a cell Each will work 100
days on the streets Of Montgomery unless
$500 is produced to enrich the city treas
ury. Recorder Arr lgton hath said so.
Wesley says he Is % years old. Jordan
Is younger. Their homes are eight miles
from Banks, Pike County. where, they
say, their fathers are respectable farm
ers. Several day ago they left their
homes and went cut into the world. They
say they were looking for work. Troy
was the first city they visited. There was
no work there. They heard of place to
the north of Montgomery where employ
ment could be secured at a saw mill.
They HE'D themselves northward.
At o'clock yesterday morning z. w.

trolmen, espied the country youths walk

suspicion They were arrested. The pis-
tolls were found on their persons.

County boys, on the police register.
Two rustry little 32-calib-e pistols lay
on the desk of Police Chief Gerald when
the Recorders Court convened yesterday
afternoon.
Its a pity" said J. L. Taylor, one of
the arresting officers. that a 15-cent pis-
toll should cost a country boy $780,"
They kin same as the others" OBJ
served Police Chief Gerald, with the
philosophy gained by many years Of po-
lice service.
Wesley and Jordan entered the court
room. They pleaded guilty and Patrolman
Taylor told of their arrest. Wesley had
one pistol in his pocket. Jordan had a
pistol and the knuckles.
The case did not consume two minutes.
Recorder Arlington fired the boys 500 or
100 days each, and they returned to prison
cells.
'"The pistols belong to Jordan" said
young Wesley jerking his thumb toward
his companion. "He asked me to take
care of one for him. / guess I'll have to
work out my time"
II won't stay here 100 days." broke out
Jordan, the younger of the boys. MY
father owns 500 acres of Pike County
land and can get 800 easy enough"
Then, with heroic determination, But
I'll work part of it out until my father
learns where I am"
The Pike County youths said they
would 60 home when they got out of the
tolls of the law.

VETS HOME IS FILLED
NO MORE SOLDIERS CAN BE
TAKEN AT MOUNTAIN CREEK.
Fourteen Confederates Now There
Have Taxed Capacity Of Com
pleted Bnildings-Several
Cottages are Being Built.

NO more old soldiers are being received
IN the Falkner Home for Confederate
veterans at Mountain Creek. The conf
pleted quarters for the Veterans are filled
TO their capacity.
The reception Of worthy applicants had
to be discontinued until the cottages now
building are completed. If any other
applications had been accepted by the
reception committee no place at the
Home could have been found for the ap-
piicants.
There are at present fourteen veterans
at the Home and two at the Montgorl-
cry City Infirmary. All Of these have
been favorably passed upon and accept
ed as inmates OF the Home by the Re-
ception Committee of Camp JEFF Falkner
under whose direction the Home was
begun.
The number cannot be increased until
the cottages now under construction are
completed.
Five cottages are building on the Noun
tain Creek grounds. Four of these are
being erected under the auspices and
under the direction Of Camp Falkner. The
NTH cottage il being built by Camp
Hardie. United Confederate Veterans of
Birmingham. The work is being rapidly
pushed.
Work on the main building is we'll under
way. The foundation has been practi-
cally completed. The main building with
its auditorium and assembly rooms for
the veterans will be the center of interest
IN the colony in which the whole State
takes an abiding interest.
The officers of Camp Falkner expect
within a short while that the building
OF the John e. Moore Nome will be-
gin. This building will be erected by
fund bequeathed by Mrs. John e.
Moore of Huntsville to be ased in build
ing home for Confederates TO be named
in honor OF her husband. y
The money was left in charge Of the
Diocesan Council of the Episcopal Church
of Alabama. Camp Faikner has been
assured that the money will be used to
erect building at the Mountain Creek
Home.
AS a site for this structure the Camp
has decided one acre. When this build
ing, in years to come will nave ceased
to be used as a shelter for Confederate
soldiers the property will revert to the
Diocesan Council to be put to the use it
may designate.

THE BIG CORN CROP.
And the Number of Cars It Will Take
to Haul It.

A corn crop Of fully two and one-half
billion bushels. which Is three hundred
million bushels more than the biggest
crop in the history of the country. Ii
predicted for this year by traffic men
and grain statisticians says The Railway
Age. Two and a half billion bushels Of
corn means 10000. 100000 pounds, which
means 100000 tons. which. at the liber-
al average of thirty tons to the car,
means 2SSS. 1888 carloads: which. at fifty
cars to the train. means 1865 trains;
which means loud calls for cars ana en-
gines. long hours and increased pay for
train crews. large earnings for the rail-
ways. much money for farmers mer-
chants and all related industries. and
a continuance Of general prosperity.
How much of the possible two and q
third million carloads will actually be
carried by rail and how much of 1t will
be consumed on the farms cannot be so
easily figured; but the bulk of this
prodigious yield will reach the railways
in the form Of corn or Of stock and the
roads in the corn-growing regions will
have all that they can do for many
months and every railway and business
in the country will benefit from the
prosperity Of the producers of this
great staple.
