was soft, neecy silvery grey wreathed
with chrysanthemums which were
shaded from light to the darkest tones.

vered.
Indeed. chrysanthemums are among
the most used flowers In the expensive
millinery designs. Even mourning hats
are trimmed with them, the petals be-

ed-out silk and ruches form another
feature on the fashionable hat of to-
day and are 10 decorative that little

BOOM DAYS IN ALABAMA.
Bottle Of Whisky Paved the Way For
Nights Lodging.

When the boom In the iron and coal
trade first struck Birmingham, Ala,
the hotel accommodation were ex-
remedy poor. There was only one house
In the town where transient guests
were regularly accommodated, and the
sudden influx Of visitors soon filled Il to
overfowing. This was an old ramshac-
kle building, and the proprietor of the
place all at once found himself In con-
troll Of virtual monopoly. As usual
under such circumstances. he became
extremely independent. After every
room had been filled. and all the cot
beds for which he could hnd room In
the halls and other odd places were oc-
cupied. II mattered little to him that
otner visitors were compelled to walk
the streets all night In lieu Of place
to sleep.
Birmingham was the county seat, and
when the courts were in session for q
week each month the crush was partic-
ularly great. The civil engineers from
Louisville reached the, pla0 sate one
night In the early part u court
week and sought accommodations at
the hotel. In answer to their inquiries
the proprietor told them that he had
absolutely no place for them.
Cant you give us 'shakedown' In
the once here?" asked one of the men.
II amt done got nothin'." was the
reply.
arst speaker, I'VE are . long distance
from home, and unless you put us away
somewhere we shall be compelled to
walk the streets all night"
The only response was an unfeeling
yawn and a reitertation Of the asser-
tion from the proprietor that he
couldn't help II, he done had" no place
10 put them.
"Well," said the visitor, 81 suppose
we might sit down here awhile and get
warm"
The proprietor gave a somewhat re-
luctant consent, and one OF the men
opened his valise and took out q bottle
Of Kentucky whisky. The proprietor
eyed II with some interest, and a re-
quest for some glasses. hot water and
sugar was complied with rather cheer
fully. When the glasses were brought
three OF them on the waiter. The whis-

the proprietor particularly. Several
more drinks were sandwiched between
a number Of time killing yarns. and the
proprietor became enthusiastic In
praise OF the quality OF the red liquor.

white corn whisky was seen In that
part of Alabama In those days.
