 Good Saturday Business. The fall business season opened up yesterday in Montgomery In earnest; 1t was one of the largest crowds of visitors and home people which which thronged the street, during the entire year. It reminded the merchants of the crowded days of the Christmas hol- tdays.
 The crowded streets indicated one thing assuredly. that in spite of the yellow fever troubles to the. South, Montgomery is going forward contl- dently in the big business which comes to her with every fall. The day was most satisfactory Saturday. Cotton began coming in early in | the morning and 1t continued through out the entire day Sometimes a string of six or seven wagons would come down the street in line, with the cot ton bales piled high. The market is l good and a great deal of the cotton brought in was sold at the enticing | prices which were offered for 1t. AS a result large amount of mon | ey was turned loose during the day
 in the regular channels of trade. The
 business of the day agreeably sur
 prised some of the merchants.

The Prick report was the fatal gun. IL

what we should do is to secure the enact
ment of laws which would put an end TO
this form of gambling insurance. l can
call 1t by no more polite name. We must
wipe out this system of deferred payments,
which create large surplus. The line be-
tween a mutual insurance company and an
insurance company run for the beneht OF
the stockholders should be clearly dehned
by law and the law should be enforced.
An insurance company should not be al
lowed to work the hocus pocus of running
it's affairs ostensibly for the policy holder
and then twisting the business around to
the advantage of the stockholders. l can
not say too emphatically that we must do
away with gambling insurance, the large

The only place in the world where
violin-making may be said to consti-
suite the staple industry is Markneu-
kirchen, in Saxony, with its numerous
surrounding villages. There are al
together about $4,000 people in this
district engaged exclusively in the
manufacture of violins. The inhabi-
tants, from the small boy and girl to
the wrinkled, grey-headed veteran and
the aged grandmother, are employed
throughout the year in making some
part or other of this instrument.

Skunked

Friday night, j.. Garduer
Wade. w. Fnmet Vowel, Elmer
Yates, L. win Walker, Ferd
Wood. Harvey Cray and Onie
Fink, with their brush beaters,
Manual and John Butler aud
dogs. went to the North river
hills for coon hunt.
Their commissary was COM
posed of bacon, hamburger
steak, limburger cheese, crack
ers and coffee. The steak and
bacon was cooked on fiat rocks
that had not been washed since
the last rain, but as they were
ravenous, that did not count
for they thought it a feast for
the Gods.
The only drawback to the
banquet by lantern light, was
W Emmet Vowel. Emmett has
freed one of those pretty striped
cats In the brush and didn't do
a thing to it but poke it with
his ak and the skunk didn't do
a thing to Emmet but, we'll,
Emmets clothes are safely
buried where the odor will not
reach the house.
The gentleman were warm
and had pulled off their over
coats and as Gardner is fond of
fun, he pulled a lot of wool off
of a sheep whose spirit had
taken its flight several weeks
before and poked it in, as he
supposed, Onie Flnk's overcoat
pocket The wool Was almost
as ripe and mellow as was
Emmet's wearing apparel, and
when the boys were nearly
hom,, Onie, to Gardeners aston
ishment, found that uncou-
sciously traded coats, so Gard.
ner got the full benefit of his
prank.
