 Extensive preparations are being made by the Mobile and Ohio and Lou isville and Nashville Railroads for handling the large number of home seekers from the Northwest who are to invade this territory the coming winter. The season of homeseekers' excursions Is to be inaugurated during the coming month. the first reaching Mobile about October IS.
 The majority of the omeseekers com ing through Mobile are bound for points in Baldwin County, where there are quite a number of colonies estab- lished. It is estimated that there were about 5000 homeseekers to visit the various points in that county last year. 25 per cent. of whom located.
 It is the belief of those engaged in CTS in this neighborhood that the com the number of persons to be brought to this part of the country seeking homes. to escape the rigid weather of the North. According to information given out yesterda the homeseekers' excur- sions for Baldwin County points will be routed through Mobile. Here they are to be taken to the various places on the Eastern Shore and along Mag nolia River by steamer. The return will be made over the Bay Minette and Fort Morgan Railroad and the Louis- vile and Nashville Railroad The fla cilities for handling the homcseekers have been greatly improved by the ad- dition of the passenger steamer Bald win. of large passenger and speed ca- pacity.

Is in this State. He shot and killed John Weldon, a respectable white citi- gen of Tallapoosa Coutny, and seriously wounded Deputy Sheriff Jim Heard at Reeltown a few months ago. Deputy Heard was attempting to arrest the negro when he wounded him. The ar rest was intended for the murder of Wright which had preceded a day or two.
 The reward was recommended by the sheriff and the Solicitor of the county, Hon. J. A Rowe.
 Sheriff Smith said that the last words he had from Wright were tF~b he would never be caught alive. It is believed that the reward will materi- ally hasten the final apprehension of the desperado.

Service to Havana.

Service to Havana.
 Plans for the inauguration of the Illinois Central-Southern Pacific New Orleans-Havana service are being mapped out now, and the announce
 ment Is made that the service will be- gin on November 1st. On that date the Illinois Central will place in com mission what will thereafter be known as the Cuban Flyer" between New Orleans and Chicago. The schedule for the train has not yet been announced, but 1t will be materially faster than
 the best runs now made from the Windy City south, and the purpose will at all times be to make direct connection here with the Southern Pa cific's steamship, the Prince Arthur,
 which will make the trip from wharf to wharf in quicker time than has
 ever been heretofore recorded. The
 Prince Arthur will, it is believed, make
 her first trip from the Southern Pa
 cifc wharf here on October 18th. She
 will be turned over to the Southern
 Pacific Company on October 9th, and
 will come direct to New Orleans to
 enter her new service. The boat is a practically new vessel and will re- uuire no alterations. She is a strict ly passenger vessel.
 One feature of the Prince Arthur which has not been mentioned yet in print is a large and commodious
 
 the future as the bridal chamber" This apartment will be furnished with all the luxurious fittings available. General Passenger Agent Batturs in- tends to advertise this feature and to make the trip to Havana popular with honeymoon tourists.
 Commencing November 1st, the water rate to Cuba wil go soaring up a bit. It Is announced on that date the rates will be advanced $5 for the one way trip and $10 on the round trip, making the figures as follows: First cabin, one way. s25. second cab in, one way. SIS; steerage. one way. 9l2oO. First cabin, round trip, $40; second cabin. round trip. $30.
 The rates over the Munson Line from Mobile will be the same as those over the Southern Pacific from New Orleans.
 The additional facilities and great comfort provided by the new steam ship which is to go into commission on the 18th, will more than compen- sate tourists for the additional ex- pense of the trip. The rates are not higher than usual. As advanced they are at the same figures that prevailed prior to the reduction two years ago. The trip Is considered well worth the new rates under any circumstances and the Journey will be cheap at the price when the Prince Arthur com- mences opeEations. - New Orleans

Winter Tourist Travel (.


 Chicago dispatch says: There is going to be a hot fight for winter tour ist business from this district this sea- son. The war will be among the roads operating from here to California, those lines to Florida and those with the new service to Cuba. Now and for the past two or three years Southern Californis has had the call This Is the result of q ten years campaign on the part of the railroads. Florida Is still in favor and draws well by reason of the diner- ence in time of the journeys. Now comes the Illinois Central and Southern with big plans for rail and steamship service between Chicago and Havana via New Orleans, and later the Alton and Mobile and Ohio will probably an- nounce a service through Mobile. Many believe the Cuban service will be a big winner, but the increased prosperity oe the country has so increased winter tourist business generally that there Is little doubt there will be enough seekers of balmy climates in the North this year to satisfy all routes.
