LADIESi An Interesting Announcement.

We respectfully announce that our seo- ond shipment of rugs bought by our Mir Ald-el-Keriem as announced August 9th has arrived and is on exhibition and sale at our store. This collection of rugs Is far superior to anything ever shown in the south. This stock, you understand is sent direct to us from Persia by our own buyer, who has an interest in our business, works for no one but us, and who spends his entire time travelling over Persia and other Oriental countries per- sonally selecting rugs one by one for us
 We positively buy no left over stocks or unsaleable goods disposed of by New York concerns, nor do we handle any consignment of goods, as Is usually done by so-called Oriental dealers in the south We own what we have and are able to sell them at our own prices and not at the prices demanded by a consignee.
 These consignments and leftover stocks must be very inferior as they have been picked over by thousands of northern buyers and are finally disposed of at their original value to dealers in tho south and west
 As we are direct importers we arc able to save you the middle-man profit and our customers are the very first to se- lect from each importation as they ar rive from Persia.
 We would like very much to give a list of prices, but Oriental rugs are not like the domestic, which are largely priced by their size. The price of an Oriental rug depends entirely on the weaving, the colorng and the design.
 We would be glad to prove our claims by having yon come and personally in- spect our stock whether you w,sE to purchase or not. Very resnectfully,

GOOD OUTLOOK FOR
 UNIVERSITY TEAM
If New Material Makes Good the Team May Average 1855
 Pounds.

Tuscaloosa, September 23-(Special)- Football at the State university is still the all absorbing topic there as well as in the city, where there is much interest manifested in the outlook. The boys are hard at work and nothing is being left undone which will add to the strength of the varsity.
 Captain Burks, together with Coach Levenworth, are close in behind the boys Coach Blount, also Captain Wyatt of last year are lending their valuable assistance to the new team. It seems now that the team will be the heaviest that the insti- tuition has ever boasted of. In the heavy weights most of the material is entirely new and whether they will make the team is yet to be seen. If they do how ever, the lineup will average something like one hundred and elghty-tlve pounds.

Recovered Money Ate by Goat.

Probably one of the oldest claims
ever made on a bank is recorded as
having been made against the Nation
al Bank of Belgium. An old peasant
woman had laid on the grass jacket
containing bank notes of small de-
nomination for s240 in the pocket, and
while she was at work her pet goat
had got at the notes and eaten them
The animal was killed, and the chewed
paper recovered from the stomach was
submitted in support of claim for
compensation, which the bank paid
after verifying the facts by chemical
analysis and other inquiry.

Caterpillar as Weather Prophet.


An aged farmer, living near Column
bus, Ohio, has for number of years
watched the color of the caterpillar
and the way it changes with the
weather. The color Of that insect
late in the fall, he claims, is a cor
rect index Of the weather for the com
ing winter.
This year the caterpillar was dark
at either end, but very light in the
middle, showing, according to his the
DRY, the fore part of the winter to be
cold, the middle warm, or mild, and
the latter cold. Last year, he says
the caterpillar was dark all over, ant
as proof of his theory this aged farm
er points to the severity of last win
ter's weather.

feet long in the rocky walls Of Arrow

At point where the perpendicular
wall Of the canyon juts out about 200
feet above the canyon bed thin,
snakelike assure runs in the rock. Sue
cessive generations of Indians have
gone to the place at regular intervals
and shot their gayly befeathered ar
rows upward, forming II frnged scarf
unique in its oddity The arrows are
SO thick that little room is left for
more, and owing TO the position Of the
assure at Il height of POO feet and I'M
der the shelving wall the relics, pro-
tected from the weather, have stuck
where they were driven in uncounted

Already relic hunters are visiting the
place and despoiling 1t of its treasures
by shooting the arrows out with revolv-
ers and rifles. In the sands Of the bed
Of the canyon many arrOwheads of
various sizes and shapes are found
buried. 1t is believed that the Indians
visited this spot In connection with
some rite. Crude, strange figures have
