.Ticket, please,' came from the gate keeper at the Union Railway station last night as an aged woman amshs the throng of passengers star'eo through the entrance gate.
 Opening a small hand satchel she made a search for her ticket, ana look of blank dismay rushed over her face when the ticket was missing,
 Why, it's gone" she exclaimed III a voice of utter helplessness.
 The look of honesty and genuine oiy, tress on the motherly face impressed an oficer who, after nearing her nla nation hurried with her to one or tbe coaches of the Atlantic Coast SLine which was to leave in a few minutes. Going in the coach the woman pointed to an auburn haired woman in one of the seats, whom she averred had taken the ticket. The officer went to the sec ond woman and politely but firmly told her that he would be compelled to ex- anime her baggage, a' small hand satchel. Opening the satchel the officer and the first woman took out the con- tents, a handkerchief and few odds and ends.
 / Well. it's not there" said the older woman in a disappointed tone, and she and the officer left the car just as the train pulled out from the station. The woman who lost her ticket was Mrs. M. E. High of Zolfo Springs, Fla. and she was en route to her home after a visit to the Worlds Fair in St. Louis. She arrived in Montgomery on the southbound Louisville and Nashville train at II o'clock yesterday morning.
 When I got in the car for Montgom- cry at Nashville" she said, narrating her little tragedy. 1t was crowded and the porter who helped me with my bundles, put me in the only vacant seat in the car. It was a chair car and lady already had part of the seat. We chatted of course, and the lady asked

 fured

Pensacola, Fla, Oct. 5.--(Special)-- Fire started mysteriously in the ware house of B Gerson, a dealer in crock cry, this morning at 4 o'clock. and on account of the inflammable nature of the contents of the building, soon gained headway and it looked as if the entire row of buildings would be con- stunned. The firemen. after very hard fight, confined the fire to the Ger son warehouse and the loss is beyond S1,50O according to the estimates of the fire chief. MT. Gerson is out of the city.
 In responding to the fire call, the hook and ladder truck was run against a telegraph pole and put out of busi- ness for many weeks. meeting Of the Board of Safety was called for this evening for the purpose of discussing the advisability of purchasing new truck, and it is possible that the Coun- ell will be petitioned to appropriate g. sum. In the crash Charles Hall. g. fireman, was pitched under the feet ot the horses and was injured, but not badly.

 F. c. Moring. President of the As sociation, said:
 There is very little business in our line and what business we are able to pick up is al a loss. A great many of the cOlored goods mills have been either shut down or running on short time. and 1t Is hardly probable that full time will be made until market conditions improve.

CHOKING CATARRH CURED.
MT. CasweII Says, "HyOwei Cured Me- Your Money Back If It Does
 Not Cure HOu.

Use Hyomei and be cured of ca tarrh," is what all who have tried 1t for that disease say to their friends.
 o. s. Caswell of North Middleboro, Mass, writes: "Hyomei has relieved me from a choking catarrhal trouble and cleared my head. l am glad to recom- mend 1t to my friends"
 It Is the easiest thing in the world to stop catarrh or a catarrhal cold at It's beginning Ii you use Hyomei. Just breathe the health giving, balsamic air for a few minutes and your catarrh will be cured. In the worst cases of this disease. chronic or acute. Hyomei used four or five times a day is all that Is needed to soon effect a cure.
 In this and neighborlng towns, there are hundreds that can testify to the remarkable powers of Hyomei to cure catarrh Many of the staunchest friends of this remedy began It's use with little hope that they would be cured, but as E. G. Fowler offered to refund the money if 1t did not benefit, they decided to try 1t on that plan, and were soon restored to health.
 The complete Hyomei outfit costs but $1.00 and consists of an inhaler that can be carried in the vest pocket. a medicine dropper and bottle of Hyo- mel. The inhaler lasts a lifetime. and If one bottle does not cure, an extra bottle of Hyomei can be obtained for 50 cents. oct 6-11-14
