AB POWELL OWNS
 CLUB IN ATLANTA Buys Interest of Homer George and Will Manage Team LOST $500 LAST SEASON It Is Understood Young George Got Good Sum for Interest Purchased
 for Him By General carnes.
 Some Developments.
LOST $500 LAST SEASON

Memphis. Tenn December 22.-(Spe- cial. )--After several days of haggling a deal was closed today whereby Abner Powell of New Orleans secures entire control of the Atlanta baseball club, he purchasing the half interest bought by General S. T. Carnes from B. T. Peter for Homer George.
 The closing of the deal was followed by an announcement from Powell that he would manage the Atlanta team next year and would at once proceed with ar engagements to this effect. Young George has been offered an interest in the local team in addition to a neat sum of cash he received for his share in the Atlanta club.
 When the purchase of the Atlanta team was made the local persons were told that Peter would have the other half, but the latter claimed that Powell refused to sell to him. according to an agreement, and thus he was entirely cut out of the game. Not wishing to be connected with Powell. the local interests made him an offer to buy his stock or sell their stock. He decided to buy. So the trade was closed through the agency of Hart New man.
 With this interest Powell owns every penny of the Atlanta stock, which lost it's holders last season the sum of $1SOC in cash. This latter statement was the cause of Peters selling. It was not made public until the Birmingham meeting, when Judge Kavenaugh informed the Memphis men. It accounted for their willingness to sell also.

HAVE YOU ANY OF THESE
Symptoms of Very Common TroubIe9


 There is no disease so common in the pears in so many forms and attacks so many different organs.
 It is a common mistake to suppose that catarrh is confined to the nose and throat. Any inflammation of the mucous membrane, wherever located, accompanied by abnormal secretions, is catarrh. Ca tarrh of stomach or bladder. or intestines in nearly as common as nasal catarrh and much more serious, although 1t is true that stomach catarrh and catarrh of other internal organs is the result of neglected nasal catarrh.
 A new remedy has recently appeared which so far as tested seems to be re- markedly effective in promptly curing ca tarrh. wherever located. The preparation is sold by druggists generally under name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and in ad- dition to being very palatable and con- venient, possesses extraordinary merit, in many cases giving immediate relief from the coughing, hawking and constant clearing of the throat and head, those symptoms with which everyone is fa- miliar who has ever suffered from colds in the head and throat.
 Catarrh is simply continuation of these symptoms until the trouble be- comes chronic and grows gradually worse from year to year.
 Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are composed of blood root, red gum and similar anti septies and catarrh specifics. from which 1t will be seen that no secret is made of the ingredients and also that no mineral poisons are used, as is the case with many well known catarrh medicines.
 For catarrh of the nose. throat, bron- chial tubes, for catarrh of stomach. in- testines or bladder no preparation Is so safe and gives such rapid and permanent results as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
 All druggists sell them at 50c for full sized package. You can use them with as- surance that you will not contract the cocaine or morphine habit as the results from this catarrh cure are apparent from the first days use.

Yesterday Was the Greatest Day in the History of

 Here not word was said of prices. Simply reminded you of the futiIeness of going to other stores for Christmas goods. Come here first and get what you want. The advantage of shopping here now, these two days before Christmas, is The Best Stock from Which to Select.
 Today we are showing things that we did not show week ago-new arrivals, new purchases to keep up with this great rush of holiday trade; for instance There Are Several Thousand Dollars in Diamond Jewelry Just In-Rings

THREE PERSONS WERE HURT.
Mrs. j. BilIekopf Struck in Breast With
Rock. and Mr.. Philip Davis Had His

A riot was narrowly averted on Mayo
Street last night shortly before 9 o'clock,
and although serious trouble was avoided.
several well known citizens were more
or less injured by a gang of unruly and
infuriated negroes, who seemed for min
ute bent upon externinating score or;
more with stones. Excitement for time
was at a fever heat, but the negroes were
finally put to rout, fearing the approach
of the police.
AS a result Of the outbreak. Mrs. j.
Billikopf, of East Broad Street; Philip f.
Davis, Of No. 1902 East Main Street, and
another man, whose name 1t was lmpos-
sible to learn. were painfully injured. the
first being struck in the breast with
rcck, from which she suffered great ag-
ony for a few minutes. Davis had his
left ear split with a stone, while the un-
known man was struck on the body. For
a spell the air was thick with flying
stones and sticks, and that more people
were not injured seems miraculous.
RIGHT OF WAY.
The trouble was the result of a misun-
derstanding in regard to the narrow side
walk along Mayo Street in the vicinity
of the Sir Moses hTontihore Synagogue.
gang of negroes making a successful
attempt to maintain all Of the walkway..
The difference occurred Just a few min
utea after the services in the house OF
worship had concluded. and when peo-
Tle were pouring from the place.
The widest excitement prevailed for
few minutes, and riot of no small pro-
portions seemed imminent, for those who
had been attacked by the negroes showed
fight. and things were getting extremely
lively when some one called ''police!''
This had the desired effect upon the me-
groes. and they left the street in a hurry,
darting about the surrounding corners
With marked rapidity.
The synagogue had been crowded with
people. the occasion being one Of the
most notable in the jewish year. the eve.
of Atonement Day. When services were
