Hot Times on the Alabama.

There is a bright prospect of warm times on the Alabama river this fall The appearance of the Hard Cash. the river packet that made the trip this week for the Mary s. Blees, and the announcement of a cut of 9 per cent in the tariff, is the beginning of the war. The Ouchita. which came up the first part of the week, had made only a slight reduction in the tarif rates and these rates the City of Mobile met. The Mary Blees is to contest with the Nettie Quill and the the slash in rates by the Blees people announced to-day will have to be met by the Nettie. The Quill and the City of Mobile belong to the combination. The other two obats are said to be independent and the re- suit of the war can only be cheaper rates for Selma shippers.
 C. S. Partridge has been appointed agent for the Mary s. Blees. MT. Partridge, who has been doing local work on The Advertiser in Montgomery, returned to- day and will resume charge of the Selma bureau Monday.

AT THE UNIVERSITY.
Great Increase Over the Enrolment
 of Last Year.

| University, Sept. t9.--(Special. .)-Since 1 the opening of the University ten days ago. the enrolment of new students has steadily continued. until at present the total number in the academic departments is about 200, an excess of some twenty-five or more over the total academic enroll ment of last session.
 The indications are that this number will be considerably increased by later acquisi- tions. The law students however, have not been reporting as promptly as usual. Judge Thorington estimates a law class this year of fifty or more. The total en- rollment for the ensuing scholastic year in all departments promises to exceed that of last year by about thirty.
 The opening this year is pronounced by all who are acquainted with University affairs one of the most successful in its history. The order prevailing among the students under the abolition of all forms of military discipline is being remarked upon by every one.
 The cool weather of the past two days has done much towards developing foot ball material. Yesterday more men were in uniforms than at any previous date The material so far, however, Is a little disappointing to the gridiron enthusiasts. It seems almost certain that the '03 team will be one of the lightest the University has put out in a number of years.
 Coach Blount has been assisted at sev- eral of the practices this week by his brother. who played end on Yale last season, and who is now on his way to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for course of study. Under their joint in- struction the men have shown considerable improvement but it Is entirely too early to attempt naming of Varsity. Yes | terday afternoon the first scrub game of | the year was played and the men showed great deal of snap and spirit. | At a recent faculty meeting the follow ing students were appointed on the edi- torial board of The Crimson White the college weekly: Editor-in-Chief, James Holtzclaw Kirkpatrick 0S.
