BISHOP SMITH SPEAKS.

Prominent MethOdist Visitor to HKis-
 sionaFy Meeting mt Daa~vfiIe.
 Dadeville. Oct. 31.--(Special. )--Tfie Woman's Missionary Society of the North Alabama Conference, which has been in session at the Methodist church here since last Thursday, adjourned last night. The meeting was well at- tended at all of it's sessions and was very interesting throughout.
 Bishop A. Coke Smith, of Norfolk, va., was one of the prominent visi- tors attending the meeting and preach ed at the court house yesterday to a congregation of nearly a thousand people and again at the Methodist church last night to a crowded house. The conference adjourned last night to meet in Jasper next fall.
 The long continued drought is be- coming very serious in this section. All of the water gins and mills throughout the county have been for ced to shut down and many of the steam plants are hauling water for miles. Wells all over the county are dry in many instances and the dust is aI- most unbearable.

 During the afternoon. the band sere- naded the different newspapers of Montgomery and at each place drew large crowds.
 On account of delay in the arrival of the Carnival Company's train in Montgomery, no effort was made to de- train until $esterday morning. Even with this setback. the shows would have been in running order earlier had not the pavements of Dexter Avenue given trouble The tar between the bricks, held the paving firm and 1t was with the greatest difficulty that the pegs for the various tents were set.
 Throughout the morning hours the workmen of the Carnival Company were busy erecting the canvasses and the song of the hammer of the car penters erecting booths for the private concessionaries was heard throughout the forenoon and afternoon.
 By nightfall everything was ready. Confetti battles on the avenue began. The cries of the "spielers" for the shows mingled joyfully with the shouts of the happy throng. The cries of Lemonade fve-a-glass" and "hit-the- baby and -get-a-cigar" compelled a smile from even the most dignified per- son on the streets. Every one likes to see the human family enjoy itself
 Good order Everywhere.
 The good order was noteworthy. Ar rests were few notwithstanding the police force on the down town beats was doubled.
 Early in the day. the Executive Com mittee of the Eagles, which has charge of the Fair. J. J. Sullivan. James W. Smith. Berto H. Johnson and Edward | J. Mahoney. circulated the request that the patrons keep moving to prevent a | congestion and this request was, in | the main. regarded.

MONTGOMERY THEATRE. Matinee Today 2 o'clock.
 And Tonight,
'sTAe sign Of the Cross."

AG 6A8A OA eMG OkW8Ds ''The Sign of the Cross," Wilson Bar rett's wonderfully successful religious and historical drama, will be given a sumptuous spectacular production at
 the Montgomery Theatre matinee today and tonight.
 The Atlanta Consultation of Saturday. October 2s, says. is ''wilson Barretes The slgn of the Cross was the attraction at the Grand Opera House last night. This play. which has come to be looked upon as Q Biblical classic, Is too well known to need any explanation or description at
 this time. Enough 1t is to say that the simplicity of the life of the early Chris tians are contrasted to the splendor and 1 licentiousness of the days of Nero with i dramatic effect.
 The scenic effects were exceptionally good and the many characters were in the hands of an unusually strong cast. The women in the play were of the striking types physically that show of to wonderful advantage in the flowing gowns that belonged to that period. The makeup of Nero was exceptionally fine and the leading part of Marcus Super bus was handled in George Floods own masterful way. A good chorus helped
 much and altogether the production was both an entertaining and finished one."

Downtown District Ablaze With Light and
 Color.
asu.iA and Electric Display Prime Fea' tales ss ran Carnival !. Ment- s.mery's street.--Great
 oYwa ea Fir.t Day.

Amid the shouts of merry hundreds of gleeful MontDOmerians and their equally happy neighbors. the Fall Street Carnival of the Fraternal Orr der of Eagles opened yesterday after noon and for week Montgomery will enjoy unalloyed fun.
 There was no formal opening of the fair. The carnival people and their patrons seemed to open the weeks pleasures by mutual consent.O When the shows were ready the people were ready and from o'cyock yesterday afternoon until after midnight, the fun went on at a rate that would make Barney Oldfield in his fastest machine feel like he was standing still.
 The business done by the EAgles yes. terday was unexpectedly large and the members of that popular order are fe- licitating themselves on the prospects for the week. The weather Is good. the crowd is here and the attractions ap- pear to be ample.
 Montgomery is well acquainted with Street Fairs. For three successive years the business men of the Capital City gave fall carnivals. These car- nivals drew tremendous crowds to Montgomery and each year great shows were put On. But the opinion grew tndt SttCCt AaAA1 W~AO hOs RAotA~~%eASt and the Montgomery Street Fair Asso- citation ceased to promote them.
 Indications of Success.
 When 1t was announced that the Fra ternal Order of Eagles would give a fall carnival. it was freely prophesied that the affair would be a flat failure, but from the indications of yesterday the Montgomery people and the people of the adjacent counties enjoyed this form of amusement as much as ever.
 Four weeks the Eagles had in which to prepare for the carnival and in this time the Fair was so well advertised that the scene on Dexter Avenue last night did not diner widely from the scenes of past carniva1s. The scene was one of beauty and brilliance. Since the last Street Fair. Dexter Avenue has changed greatly. New buildings have arisen and the electrical display ir Montgomery is especially noticeable Gorgeous was the light display of the Fair. From the beginning of the Fail district at the Court Square fountain to it's terminus at The Advertiser of- flee, the street has been spanned al close intervals with strings of electric lights of every color of the rainbow To a person walking from the residence district and suddeny coming into the Fair district, the display was of the

HEAD SOLID SORE Awful Suffering of Baby and Sleeplsss Nights of
 Mother. CURED BY CUTICURA Skin Fair as a Lily with no Scar tu Recall Awful Sore
 Writes Mother.

"i herewith write out ia fun the be. ginning and end of that terrible disease, eczema, which caused my babs untold suffering and myself many sleepless nights. '..
 "My babe was born seemingly fair, healthy child, but when she was three weeks old 6 swelling appeared on the back of her head, and in course of time broke. It did not heal but grew worse, and the sore spread from the size of 6 dime to that of c dollar. I used all kinds of remedies that could think of. but nothing seemed to help; in fact, 1t grew worse. Her hair fell out where the sore was, and feared 1t would never grow again. It continued until my aged father came on visit, and when he saw the baby be told me to get Cuti- cura Soap and Ointment right away,
 "To please him did 60, and to my surprise by their use the sore began to heal over, the hair grew over 1t, and to-day she has nice head of hair, her skin is as fair as lily, and she has no scar left to recall that awful sore, and 1t is over eight months and no sign of its returning"

George Ade's musical satire. 'The Sultan of SuIu." has something beside the wit of it's lines to commend 1t. There Is a whole lot of funny material that has been intrusted to people clever enough to bring the humor out, and there is delightfu1ly catchy music and singers of ability to sing 1t.

White Stone Lithia water.

Savannah, Ca, Jan. 16. 1904.-Mr. J.
T. Harris, White Stone Springs, S. c.
My Dear Sir: Long ago learned from
a distinguished and experienced ply
sician that it was a good thing, both
wise and prudent to flush the kid
neys. More recently have had occa-
sion to use natural mineral waters eff
fective as a diuretic and uric acid SOL
vent. And as a palliative for chronic
cistitis; I have experimental with
Buffalo, 'Bowden,' 'Artesian,' and
'Waukesha,' Lithia Waters, and have
more constantly used White Stone
Lithia' water My decided preference
is for White Stone Lithia,' especial
ly for the still or uncarbonated water.
II have found it the most palatable
while apparently tasteless, it is sc
light and pleasant to the taste that the
desire to drink it grows with its use,
One can drink copiously without dis
tension, and it thus serves as an in
comparable 'flusher' and solvent.
IT am also satisfied that it is an ex-
cellent 'stomachic.' good to aid diges-
ton, and proper assimilation of food
Carbonated, it is a delightful table
water, vieing with the most celebrated
and destined to compete with any OF
these waters on the market. l wish
1 had a summer home close to the
spring. Very truly yours, j. r,
SausSy. "-ad.

AS was stated in the Morning News,

So far there has been no meeting of
the board of directors. and President
and General Manager Foster said that
he did not know yet just when meet

hopeful over the future of the COM

not only would the creditors of the
company receive full settlement. but
that holders of preferred stock would
be well taken care of in the settle
ment of the company's affairs.

Jan. 1, the orders which it received
subsequent thereto" Mr.. Foster said,

BILE would have been averted. But
coupled with the delay in receiving the
present orders, has been the financial
depression of the last several months,
which has been a big burden upon the
car company.
