BURGLARS AT DECATUR
SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS MISS
 ED BY MERCHANTS.
One Man Loses S700 in Cash, Jewelry and s1.O00 in Bank Stock--ror- got to Lock the
 Safe

Decatur, Oct 2S.-tSpecial. )--Several men of the city. when they came to their places of business this morning. found that their stores had been ent- cred sometime Saturday night or Sun day.
 The largest loser was the dry goods and grocery firm of Williamson & Ech- oIs, which lost over s1o0 worth Of clothing, while Mir. Echols. one of the members of the firm, lost about $7o0 in cash. together with quite an amount of jewelry and s1.000 in stock in the De- catur First National Bank.
 The robbers entered through the back transom of the store. and from ap- pearances 1t would indicate that the person who entered was boy. A com pG ratively new suit of clothes for a boy about IS years of age were found in the store, which had been changed for still newer one. This suit of clothing was covered with whitewash, which had doubtless come from the rear walls of the building
 The saloon of Frank A. Howard was also entered and about $1l taken iron, the cash drawer. An attempt wash hlso made to tap the safe, but without sue cess. An effort was made to enter the Palace Saloon. but on account of iron bars 1t was unsuccessful The grocery store of John A. English was entered and a small amount of change was taken.
 The burglars also attempted to enter the grocery store of Will Aycock. but were frightened Of.
 At Athens last night the residenco of Macklin Hobbs was entered and val | uable jewelry stolen. IL Is believed that a gang of professional crooks have worked this city and thus far they have 1 defied the police.
 0f ha fa lKa fhe n ff l in Williamson & E2hols's store were | found this morning on the river bank near Bank Street. The safe in Will Hanson & Echo was not blown. The managers of the store had forgotten tc | lock 1t.

POOLE WORKS FOR FAIR
EXHIBIT TON SELMA SHOW IS IN PREPARATION.
Commlssiener of ASriculsure Returns From West Alabama and Talks cf the states Supply
 of Cotton,

Commissioner of Agriculture R. R. Poole returned yesterday from Union- town, FaunsdAle and other points in Southwest Alabama. where he went to collect products for the Alabama exhib- it at the Fair at Selma which is to be- gin soon after that which began yester- day in Birmangham He said on his return that there is an unusual inter- est being manifested in the Fair which will be held in Selma.
 Much of the exhibit of the State at Birmingham that Is not perishable will be shipped to Selma. The perishable stuff will be re-supplieJ and in every way the attraction in one place will be as great as in the other.
 Recently Commissioner Poole return ed from visit to Atlanta. where he attended the Georgia State Fair as one of the comittee of judges. He vas much impressed with the ardor and enthu- siasm with which the Georgians dis played their agricultural and other re- sources this year. It eclipsed all form CT State Fairs that have been held in Georgia in the opinion of Captain Poole. He attributes the success in the state exhibition to the growing rivalry be- tween the numerous counties of the State.
 The counties of Georgia. many of them, hold individual Fairs previous to the State Fair and the State Fair. ac- cording to Captain Poole. is but little more than a field day for the leading exhibitors in the counties. Prizes are awarded to the county making the best aggregate exhibit ana to individuals ma king the best single exhibits. Cap tain Poole further said he believed that many of the agricultural exhibits in Att lanta this year were of higher excei- lence than are seen in many national expositions.
 It is the opinion of Captain Poole that ninety per cent. of the cotton crop of
 the South has already been ginned. He
 believes that but few years have seen before 1905 az rapid opening of the cotton. That the farmers are as con- sistently as ever holding to their cotton | is another belief of Captain Poole brought about by his observations in Alabama.
 | His opinion as to the amount of | cotton ginned is based also on his re-
 cent observations in Southwestern Ala bama. He has found in the last few days that the gins have about done their seasons work and the most of | them are idle all except about two days ] in the week. The ginners are more
 than equal to the supply of the farmers according to Captain Poole, and he ven tured the conjecture that there are
 enough ginneries in the South today to handle twenty-million bale supply.
