shade matching the hat Is very smart. The Chinese sleeve is the noticeable feature on all the fur coats The new way of trimming, is bands Of cloth
 stitched on the seams or outlined with fancy braid. There are coats that nave wide velvet cuffs aud collar, ana these are trimmed with lace and soutache. An old fur coat can be made to look like new by adding some heads, tails and paws and perhaps some braiding.
 Crope Mikado is the newest fabric for evening gowns. It has delicate soft finish, with a ground like the very thin Chinese Crepe and Is striped with a crinkled weave in self-tones. It comes in the latest colors and will doubtless be hik ed because 1t may be combined with gold and bronze tinsel effects which makes 1t more charming.
 The name of satin Beatrice Is given to the new satin which Is designed for bridal costumes. The chief character istic is its suppleness, which by the way, is the same with all the silks and satins that have been imported so far. This particular satin has the same lust rous look as any other, but 1t is as pli- able and soft as crepe or messaline, yet 1t does not crease as will these fabrics
 The novel part of some of the long coats. is that tfe edges are bound with velvet, taffeta, moire, or braid.

Business Men Wants Legislature TO
 Adjourn at Once.
 Prattville. Nov. 11.-(SpeciaL)--A union service was held in the Metho- dist Church here last night to listen to a farewell sermon by Rev. V. P. Merrill who leaves the Presbyterian Church here to take a charge in Bir- mingham.
 There is considerable talk today about the Legislature adjourning at once for the welfare of the people. The sentiment at this time is growing. and it is believed that quite a number of business meme of Prattvills and sur rounding country will meet the busl- ness men of Montgomery and the State at large tomorrow and unite with them in any undertakings of those who may attend the called meeting to put stop to legalized agitation.
 The unrest in business circles here is very pereeptible, and 1t Is considered the part of wisdom for the Legislature to adjourn at once and end the uncerS tainty of continuous agitation that can be ended by them and at least set th& matter at rest in Alabama

THE STOCK MARKET

New York Nov ti.--Thsre vas apparent " some increass in the buying of stocks ID the early part of today and commission them from sources that had been auiescent Tfor several weeks. It was supposed that there were some ventures on margin such as have been proclaimed ever since the fi- nanciai conditions first became acute. Ob- servers in the board room were confirmed In the impre8ion formed last week that the actual supply of stocks in the market

 Arrivals of South African gold in London today afforded supplies which were taken up for New York account. but there were no withdrawals from the Bank of England for that account and the private rate of discount in London received. A less satts- factory development, was the continued urgency of the demand for currency in New York. which maintained the premium for some large sums at about three per cent
 Railway traffic officials were inclined to admit a slowing down in the rate of traffic on their lines, especially those in the West. Wisconsin Railroad stocks were conspicuous leaders however. in the days advance in prices. The reaction in prices profit taking on the initial hour and the rally at the close gave the market more of pro- fessional appearance than 1t has offered for a month.

NEW YORK COTrON.

New York. Nov. l1.--Ehe cotton market was moderately active today. salea being estimated at 25.000 bales and prices ruled higher with the close steady net 6 to points higher The market opened firm at a net advance of ten to eleven points and during the forenoon sold up to @ net gain of 1501T points on covering by shorts and bull support which was encouraged by firm CT cables. large English spot sales, reports of killing frosts in the Northwestern and Northern portions of the belt and claims of a more active demand for spot cotton from Europe in the interior of the South.
 The advance was checked around 10. .S2 for December and 0.24 for January by reports that three large New York State knitting mills had closed town owing to a lack of forward orders and during the af- ternoon the market was rather irregular and at one time was back to about the opening figures. The big interests in De- cernbar seemed to be doing very little and if was thought that being as heavily com saitted to that position as they desire to be. they were awaiting developments.
 It is rumored that $2.o0O,00O worth ot cotton is being brought here from the south for delivery on December contracts.
 4 rather mors cheerful view appeared to be taken Of the financial situation and the big exports for the last two days attracted considerable comment.
 Receipts at the ports today 61.9 bales, against 56.632 last week and 72.2ei last year. For the week 360.O00 bales, against see, 976 last week and 41a,341 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans 6,7SS against 1S,044 last year.

 New Orleans. Nov. l1.--There was de- cided drop In the temperature over Sunday freezing in Oklahoma and at points in northwest Texas. snow at Abilene Texas temperature 2S degrees, and at Amarillo, in the Texas PanhHndle where the temperature registered as low as 16 degrees. This being the first genuine cold wave to strike north colder weather with the probability of a severe freeze in the greater portion of the northern half of the Central and Western sections of the cotton belt. the cotton mar ket was influenced to a higher level of about S1 per bale, January contracts having sold at ie.4s compared with Saturdays 7 This cold spell will probably put an end to the making of cotton this year in sec- ttons where the fFeeze will have occurred in event of killing frUsts materialixing tonight It Is rather fate date. however, for the and as is probable. taht fair and warmer weather will follow at the heels Of the passing of the cold wave, the effect of frost will probably have lost it's influence as market factor for the balance, of the season. Attention, thereafter. therefore, will undoubtedly be directed to trade deyei- opments.

INJURED BY HORSE
Unfortunate Accident at JEFF
ferSon Fair Yesterday
Afternoon

A very sad accident occurred at
the jefferson fair yesterday afternoon
about 80 O'Clock in which a little
boy about four years of age received
fatal injuries from which he died
about an hour and half later. The
name of the lite victim is given as
Prussing. 1t is said that the mother
of the youth attempted to cross the
track with her child, not noticing a
horse speeding on the track between
heats of the race Just as the little
fellow crawled under the fence he was
struck by a horse in such a manner
that his chest was badly crushed,
besides receiving other injuries. The
child was taken to the office of one of
the Jefferson doctors, bpt the injuries
proved fatal and the little boy passed
away about four o'clock.

BOILER EXPLOSION
At OCONONOWOC
Narrow Escape Of Gardener
and Family at Green
house Last Monday.

\ boiler explosion occurred at
Oconomowoc Monday evening
shortly after Sin o'clock and it
seems almost a mystery that deaths
did not result. The scene of the
accident was in the residence of
VIM. E. Kelley, who operates a
greenhouse next to the residence,
which is occupied by the gardener
and his family. The boiler was
located in the basement directly
under the dining room. The gard
ener and family had just finished
their supper and had scarcely en-
tered an adjoining room when the
terrific explosion occurred. A large
hole was torn through the floor,
ceiling and roof, which gives some
idea of the force. The residence
was badly damaged. The lucky
feature of the affair is that the gard
ener and his family had left the
dining room just as they did, other
wise all would undoubtedly have
been killed. Those who witnessed
the accident declare that fragments
Of the boiler were thrown into the
air to a height of $50 feet.
