TWO HORSES KILLED
ELECTR0CUTED BY GUIDE OF
 FALLEN POST.
The Driver of Cah of the Hayrood Transfer Company Has . Most Marvellous Escape From
 Death.

Two horses were electrocuted las, night about 11;15 o'clock on the cor. ner' Of Adams and Ripley streets, re. sulting from the falling of an electric pee on the sidewalk and the metallic guide which was stretched from the post to the trolley wire.
 The horses belonged to the Hay good Transfer Company. and were driven by Cato Booth. The cab was proceeding along the street without especial attention to the environment until on the corner of Adams and Rip- ley the horses ran into the guide wire which had fallen with the pole but a few minutes previously. killing them almost instantly
 Booth. the negro driver, escaped as If by a miracle. As soon as he no ticed the danger which had fallen across the animals he left the cab and went in the search of succor. The cab was unhurt, SO far as Is known and no other lives were endangered
 It is supposed that the pole fell from decay. inasmuch as no other cause has been attributed to the acci. dent. The damage was repaired as sc-n as the same was reported to the Montgomery Traction Company. The trolley wire was not interfered with by the falling of the pole nor of the guide

Negress Makes Two Trips for wayward

Negress Makes Two Trips for wayward That persistency as we'll as consist ency is jewel. was proven last night by negress. the mother of Willie Powell.
 The son. because of a violation of the city's ordinances, had been sentenced to labor al Henderson's farm, and had been actively so engaged when the mother yesterday evening paid her sons fine for the purpose of having him released and brought to this city.
 She was informed when the fine was paid. that MT. Henderson had been mo- tifed by policeman of the sons re- lease, and accordingly went out to che farm to accompany him to the city. When the negress arrived, however, she was informed. she said, by the au- thorities at that place that they had received no order to release the son, and would not surrender him upon the word of the mother.
 Nothing perturbed. the mother again presented herself at police headquar- ters last night about 10 o'clock and begged of Desk Sergeant Ragland that he write her an order for her son. SO that she could go back to get nim. The sergeant explained that were she to present herself to Mir. Henderson. she could get the boy, but the solici- tations of the mother for the order obtained 1t without delay. '.So that I can be sure of getting him." she told the officer, as she folded the note, and trudged on again to the farm for her errfng offspring.

GRAND OPENING
KREss' NEW STORE. VAST IMPROVEMENTS MADE RY THIS CONCERN.

One of our reporters made call at the new 5. 10 and 25c store this after noon and was indeed surprised to find what a great change had been made in the interior of the building owned by MT. A. L. Tyson, which has been remodeled, causing an entire change in its appearance. and giving Mont gomery the most up-to-date store in the South
 Kress' opened their third and foe store in this city on Court Square, Mo- vember 27th. 1897, and that their meth ods are in advance of the times Is shown by the progress that has been made during this period, now having over sixty five stores which are en- tirely confined to the South and the Southeast. This progress has been due to their strictly upright business meth ods. and Kress has become HOUSE. HOLD name in Montgomery as well as in other leading Southern cities, and we can pride ourvelves on having one of our leading business houses keep in the forward van of our mer- chants.
 This new building will present an entire new stock, fresh new goods Of extended lines. That they appreciate the patronage of the people Is shown by the most complete store in the coun- try and 1t was stated to reporter that Kress' are more pleased with the idea of giving Montgomery such a mart of trade than any other advancement in previous years That Kress' has been and Is the popular store is shown by the increased business during the past year. It means that Kress' have taken pride in giving Montgomery a beautiful store as will be seen by every visitor during the Grand Opening.
 The limit of 10c in prices has pre- i.tip fnr fn 10 customers, and the advance to an ex- ceptional line of 25c items will cer- tainly be appreciated For the past several years there has been a con tinuous and growing demand for the higher priced goods in Montgomery, and the result Is that they have finally decided to have 25c department, and hereafter will sell goods at 5, 10. IS and 25c which will enable them to offer to their customers the many de- sirable articles heretofore excluded.
 Those of us that remember the re- markabIe crowd that visited the pre- vious opening, the interest displayed by the numerous patrons in the meth ods and systems of progressive con cern, will be on hand this afternoon from 800 to 5:30 to acquaint them selves with the many bargains which are displayed and make mental note of what they wish to do in quick pur- chases tomorrow morning; the informal opening will be continued this evening from 7:30 to 800 o'clock, giving to those who are unable to visit the store this afternoon, an opportunity to see what this progressive concern has done, and the melodious strains of beautiful selections from Hoffman's Orchestra will aid in willing away the time, making 1t not only a per- sonaI benefit, but a pleasure.
 The Advertiser wishes to join with others in congratulations to Messrs Kress and their active employes.-adv
