 The woods and fields for miles around the city rcsounded with the barking of dogs and the firing of,guns and the shouts of the hunters. In fact. the day was. as is usual, observed as a general holiday by all classes of peo- pie. The banks were closed. the post office observed holiday. hours and many of the merchants slosed their stores. giving the clerks an opportu- nifty to attend the services or observe the day according to the dictates of the individual fancy.
 Theres were special Thanksgiving services in a number of the Montgom- cry churches, all of which were atten- ded by large congregations. Fine mu- sic, appropriate to the occasion, was 8 feature of the services at each of the churches. 4 union service of q mum Der of the Montgomery churches was held at the First Baptist Church yes- terday morning. the -Harvest Home festival" of St Johns Episcopal Cnurcn and the Episcopal Church If the Holy Comforter was held at St Johns yesterday morning and in a number of other churches services were held last night.

Hunteru Had Good pay.

The entire countryside round about Montgomery was dotted yesterday with canvas clad sportsmen celebrating Thanksgiving Day with more or less successful discharge of Araarns. Sew eral unusually large bags were re- ported. and some of these were seen by reliable witnesses.
 Every train leaving Montgomery yesterday morning carried parties of ''shotsmen," who hunted over all the region lying within fifty miles of the city. Tn some localities the firing was SD frequent as to suggest a sham bat tie. Thanks of a fervent nature were offered after each hit. though the bird which discourteous1y failed to fall was pursued by equally fervent iemarks of a different character.
 Most of the returned buntsmsn re- garded the day's sport as satisfactory. and they were just as happy and talkative as they were tired
