Barnum and Bailey.

The New York Sun has the following to say of the Barnum & Bailey show which will exhibit here on October 24;
 'The spectators are a brilliant part of the Barnum & Bailey show at Madison Square Garden. No gathering in that great building, not even at the horse or dog exhibition, have brought together assemblages more positively fashionable The boxes are nearly all filled at every performance by show parties, children predominating in the afternoons, while finely clothed and hammered adults com pose the evening groups. The entertain- ment is as good as any that the Barnum- Bailey firm has ever presented, and in smoothness and celerity it is an im- provement on former seasons. The arena diversion begins at o'clock with three rings and three platforms, and not a moment is lost in the very rapid success sion of feats in gymnAstics, equestrian ism, and the training of animals, which has been described in the Sun as a big affair. The new, clean, attractive inter- for of the Garden gives to this huge en- tertainment an air of gentility and re- fnement quite in keeping with the char acter of the audience. Nearly 100 train ed horses perform many marvellous feats at the same time in the three rings the three herds of educated elephants, and the entertainment with its picturesque features, are all most meritorious"
 The street parade will take place In the morning.

 There will be very few running races during the fair meet, as there is not suf- tieient money on hand to offer large purses. Without these the best runners cannot be secured,

An in- yestigation will be made at once, and if Steners story is found to be true an ef- fort will be made to secure his pardon. 22 of this year, Steiner was employed at the American bridge works in this city. On the latter date he drew s2950 on ac- count and went away for a few days trip The next heard of him was a let ter to J. Henry Kelln, the company's pay master saying he had been arrested on August 23 on a charge of highway rob- bery, alleged to have been committed on August IS, on which day Steiner. accord ing to the companys records. was work ing in Trenton.

De Wolf Hopper.

De Wolf Hopper, assisted by one of the strongest singing companies that has ever been seen here, will appear at the Jeff ferson theatre next Wednesday in MT. Pickwick," the latest sensation in the musical line. MT. Pickwick was drama tized by Charles Klein from "The Posthu- nous Papers of the Pickwck Club" by Charles Dickens and set to music by Manuel Klein, a new composer who gained fame in a night by the beauty and novelty of his work which has att tracted universal attention.. De Wolf Hop per will be seen in a line of worK differ ent from any in which he has before ap- peared and wh'ch has proved both a sur prise and delight to even his warmest ad- mirers. MT. Hopper in his interpretation of MT. Pickwick, according to the New York critics, has given evidence that in addition to being one of the best singing comedians on the comic opera stage he is likewise a character player of sterling worth.

The fine weather of yesterday made street car traffic unusually heavy. even for Sunday. One of the most interest ing pastimes on the cars on Sunday af- ternoons is furnished by the conversa- tion of those who are hunting homes. Some of them want to buy, some of them want to rent and still others want to buy lot and build their own homes.
 The universal comment is that they are all so high. One man said yesterday that to talk to a real estate agent was enough to discourage a young man from getting married. Turning 10 his young wife he said:
 You see that lot right there? They want 5000 for it. I know for a fact that the owner bought it year ago for S1000. '

Belgrade, October IA new cabinet has been formed with the following as it's leading members:
 Premier, General Gruics; Foreign Min ister. Andra Nikolics; Interior Minister, Stojan Protics, and War Minister, Col. Andrejevics.
 Previous dispatches from Belgrade said that at King Peters request the cabinet would resign, but the ministers would remain in office until the meeting of the national assembly.

WAS THE WRONG NEGRO.
Man Arrested at DadevllIe by Sheriff
 Smith Was Not Henry King.

Policeman J. H. Ball returned last night from Dadeville, where he went yesterday morning to see if the negro caught there by Sheriff Smith was wanted in Birming- ham for the murder of Policeman Null lin.
 The negro proved not to be the one wanted. The only thing about him that corresponded with the description was his color. He was over six feet tall and much heavier than the Henry King want ed for shooting the policeman.
 The police have not given up hope of catching King, although they think he is a long distance from Birmingham and will be a hard party to get hold of.

WALTHOUR TO RAGE
 AGAINST 10 HORSES
NOVEL ATTRACTION WILL BE GIVEN AT THE. STATE FAiR GROUNDS DURING THE COMING FA1R-coNTRAcT CLOSED.

The contract has been closed for race between Bobby Walthour, the world champion cyelist, and ten of the fastest running horses that the Alabama State Fair association can procure. This great event will be the star attraction on the opening day, October 15, at the 1air grounds.
 This race is for a purse of s1ooO. winner takes all and that it will be hotly eoh- tested is a certainty. There is talk oi side bets galore.
 Walthour will be paced by his new lo- horse power motor cycle, the largest ma chine of it's kind in the world It Will be handled by Gussie Lawson, known all over the world as "The Terrible Swede, and the most famous motor cyclist in this country The contract for this race spec flies that Walthour shall ride on the out CT edge of the track, while the horses will relay each other at the pole. Wal thour is to ride the full ten miles, while the horses are to relay each other every mile.
 This will be the first race of this kind seen in Birmingham, the first appearance in the south of this famous big motor cycle; and the first appearance of Wal thour in Birmingham since he has become the worlds champion.
 The race is simply this. Walthour has beaten every bicycle rider in the world at all distances. His records are all worlds records. The most conspicuous of them is one mile made in one minute and seven seconds on a five-lap board track made especially for fast cycle rid ing But the ride against horses is different proposition, as it Is outdoors and on dirt track and a fresh horse every mile will make a race between man and beast well worth seeing.
