SOMETHING NEW.
LOT TO BE GIVEN
AWAY

A feature of the advertising being
done by the agents for the South Side
Improvement association is to give
one valuable lot away. Any person
over II years old who has received a
ticket giving them a chance on the
lot should call at the office, No. 10
North Sth Street soon and have their
tickets registered. Those who have
not received tickets may obtain them
free at the Office of the agents.
You do not have to buy lot or pay
one cent for your chance.
During the past few days the asso-
citation has made great progress In
getting the streets opened.
The price of these lots and the easy
payments for these fine lots will no
doubt create large demand for the
lots. Many are registering for a
chance on the free lot and for the ac-
commodation of those busy during the
day the agents will keep their Office
open until $50 each evening.

Ensley. April a. tspecial)--Th great
steel mill of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad company is not a creature of
the Imagination nor n dream of the dis
tant future, but wonderful living, throb-
bling reality, brought into existence in n
twinlxling, as it were, by the rubbing of
some gigantic Aladdins lamp in the
midst of natures storehouses for all that
goes to make the best iron and steel in
the world. 1t was no idle boast that Col.
Enoch Ensley made some twenty-five
years ago when, standing on the spot
where now stands the thriving city which
bears his name. he said that here will 1
build the city that shall rule the world
in iron and steel, and its name shall be
Ensley. Pity it was that the doughty
old pioneer did not live to- see his pro-
phetic words come true.
To the ten open hearth furnaces built
several years ago the Tennessee COM
pany is now adding six furnaces of much
larger capacity, which will practically
double the output of the present plant
and render Ensley's place in the iron and
steel markets of the world doubly Sc
cure. The work on the new plant, begun
only short time ago, is progressing rap
idly toward completion, as fast as men
and money and material can make it go.
Already large excavations have been
made. and much of the foundations laid
for the furnaces proper and other neces-
sary structural work, is being carried for
ward at the same time. There Is large
steel frame building for the air com
pressors, pumps etc, necessary Tor the
operation of the open hearth furnaces, the
same kind of building for the gas pro-
md Ia p1nntrinQl tdrDn
mammoth machinery for the crushing OF
the skulls and other waste material
that 1t may be melted and utilized again.
A great lifting crane, with a capacity OF
two hundred thousand pounds. is In
course of erection, and when complete
will probably be the largest of its kind
in use
Just at the end of the new open hearth
department and adjacent to No. coal
mines is a battery of coke ovens which
have been long operated by the Tennes-
see company. and when the plant Is COM
pleted It will almost be possible to shovel
coke directly from the ovens to the fur
naces. A condition which exists nowhere
else in the world. is the proximity of tho
raw material to the manufacturing plant
And lust at the end of the battery of
ovens is a large coal mine with an aver
age daily capacity of 900 tons, and with
an electrical haulage apparatus four miles
long. probably longer than that OF any
other mine in the United States. And just
short distance from the mine the COM
pany has commenced to dig into what Is
known as the old "Eubank HILL where
has lain for ages undiscovered and UNI
thought of thousands and thousands of
| tons OF limestone.
| The view from the top of this eminence
is truly inspiring and magnificent In one
direction lie the great properties of the

ONE MAN KILLED
NINE CARS BURNED
Central of Georgia Has Disas-
trous Wreck Near EufauIa
TREsTLE BURNS DOWN
Engine Passes Over Burning Struc-
ture, But Heavy Freight Cars
Go Through-Brakeman
Watson Perishes.

Eufaula, April 14.--(Special.) -Through
freight train No. "a, on the Central of
Georgia, with Engineer Ben Cox at the
throttle, which passed here last night at
7:sO o'clock, met with disastrous wreck
twelve miles beyond here, resulting in the
death of a negro brakeman and the burn
ing of nine cars of freight.
The engineer was approaching the Pa
taula trestle going at a rapid rate of
speed when he discovered that the trestle
was on fire. Going down grade he saw
1t was impossible to stop, and so pulled
open the throttle with the hope of jump
ing it.
The engine passed over, but the heavy
loaded cars fell in with a crash and took
fire. eleven going down and nine being
destroyed The cab remained on the
track and the fagman and conductor es-
capped unhurt, as did the engineer and
fireman. The trestle is half a mile wide
and nearly 200 feet was destroyed. The
loss will be heavy, but can not now be
estimated.
1t will require fully two days before
transfers can be made as a large creek
intervenes. A temporary station and
telegraph office is being erected on the
scene. and wrecling crews are doing all
that can be done to expedite matters. The
negro brakeman is known as Giles Wat
son, and has been in the company's en-
ploy for twenty years. He was riding on
a coal car next to the engine, and was
mangled and burned in a frightful man
ner. The cause of the fire on the trestle
is not known. The east bound passenger
train, which was following close behind
the freight, had a narrow escape. Had
the misfortune happened TO it, the loss Of
life would have been frightful.

PIPING EXpLODES
AT GADSDEN PLANT
SEVERAL WORkMEN HAVE MAR
ROW ESCAPES FROM SERIOUS
INJURY-FURNAcE TO CLOSE
DOWN FOR REPAIRS.

Gadsden, April 14.-(Special )-Several
hundred feet of steam piping exploded
shortly after midnight last night at the
furnace of the Alabama Consolidated
Coal and Iron company with terrific force.
Six men who were near the boilers at
the time escaped uninjured, although 1t
was miracle that they were not killed
outright. 1t was fortunate that the acct
dent did not happen during the day, as
the loss of life would have been heavy, as
a large number of men are engaged at
work at this point on the day shift
The accident will necessitate the fur
mace shutting down for repairs for nearly
month, as new material will have to be
ordered from a distance to make repairs.
The accident was caused by too much
steam pressure.

SEABRICH SINGS IN
COLUMBUS TONIGHT
MUSICAL FESTIVAL is BROUGHT
TO TOMORROW NIGHT BY WAL
TER DAMRocH's ORCHESTRA.
DECORATION DAY APRIL 26.

Columbus, Miss, April 14--(special.)
| The musical festival opened last night,
with Frederick Ward as the attraction.
| Tonight the musical department of the
Industrial Institute and College will rem
der a grand sacred concert. Tomorrow
| night Madame Marcella Serbrich and
her concert company will be the attrac-
ton and the festival will be brought to a
close Tuesday evening, when Walter
Damrosch and the New York Symphony
Orchestra will be the attraction. A large
number of out-of-town visitors are here
for the occasion.
The local chapter United Daughters of
the Confederacy has decided to celebrate
April &c as Decoration Day in Columbus.
The exercises this year will not be as
large or elaborate as on former occasions
and will consist of only the reading of
the ritual and the decoration of the SOL
diers' graves. Crosses of honor will also
be presented to all veterans establishing
their claim and right to wear them and
new crosses will be given to veterans who
! have lost their original emblems. For
II
south to only give the veterans one cross
and if they were unfortunate enough to
lose this original one, then they could not
obtain another. However the command
ing general has recently issued an order
which makes it constitutional for dupli-
cate crosses to be obtained by all worthy
claimants. There are only three days in
the year on which these crosses can be
awarded the veterans as provided by the
constitution governing them. These days
are Decoration Day, January 10. Rob
ert Lees birthday, and on Jefferson Da-
Wis birthday, June 3.
The committee in charge of raising
funds for the erection of the Old Ladies'
Home is making arrangements for an
elaborate entertainment to be given Fri
d.. evening at the Gayety Holloway rink
in this city. This Is one of the most
worthy causes the public has yet been
asked to patronize and the entertainment
is assured of splendid patronage. The
movement is in charge of several of the
most prominent and popular women of
the city and they arc doing all possible
to make Columbus present a creditable
showing in receipts from this city.
