afternoon was one of the notably charm
ing events of the season. She entertained
for her guest Miss Amelie Lyons of Mo-
bile, Mrs. j. Richard Coleman, lately of

newcomers. Mrs. Hogue was, unfortun-
ately, prevented from being present.
Mrs. Aliens charming home was a place
of notable beauty. There was a sugges-
ton of the Christmas holiday spirit in the
decorations OF the various apartments.
Graceful evergreens draped the plate
rack in the dining room and reception
hall, and the bright-hued crimson autumn
fruits piled in the dining room told of
the autumn season.

and Mrs. Coleman. received the callers in

THE MERCHANTS MEETING
A Largely Attended and Profitable
Session Held Eridav Afternoon.


There was spice, and ginger and
life in the melting of the Retail mer-
chants association held yesterday af-
ternoon. There was also a real good
attendance, and some real good hard
efforts will be made to improve the
method of doing business here, and at
the same time increase the volume
of business. The meeting was lively
attended by live men, and will be pro-
ductive of good. In fact one or two
good plans were discussed which will
likely be adopted, that will place the
advantages of this city as a trading
point before the people of the counties
surrounding, and will no doubt result
in largely increasing the volume of
trade until after the holidays.
One of the most important matters
disposed of was the appointment OF.
standing committees by President
Eugene Edge.
These committees are as follows:
On finance-G. S. Parker. II. o. Boat
wright, r. N. Gordon and j. A. Myers.
Legislative-A. NJ. Waldrop. chair
man; w. II. Cole, Jno. NJ. Lawrence.
Organization-G. NJ. Brandon, John
A. Moore, A. w. Buchanan.
Arbitration-W r. Sanders, chair
man; Z. ]. jenkins, B. Kaczer.
Progress. T. Maloney. chairman;
w. J. Coulter, E. F. Parks.
Pure food-Trents Newton chair
man; C. Z. Bullock, w. S. Higgs.
Short Weights and Measures-S. w.
Buchanan, r. L. Brogdon, c, E.Boyett.
After the appointment of these com
mitt es and instruction as to their
duties. considerable debate was indul-
ged 10 relative to advertising the city
and its recognized advantages as
trading center. All agreed to the
proposition, the only difference of
opinion being the best method.
The matter was discussed until
nearly o'clock, when adjournment
was taken. Before adjournment, how
ever, Chairman Maloney announced
that his committee will meet in X of
p. hall Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock
and invites members of the associa-
ton to be present and offer sugges.
tions for consideration by the COM
mittee. This committee was author
lied to proceed with certain work at
the meeting yesterday afternoon UNI
less something better was suggested.
and the committee wants suggestions
from members before spending any
money. Every member of the commit
tee will no doubt be present, and
every member of the association
should try to attend tbs very impor.
tant committee meeting. The hour
is ) o'clock.

act as feeders for the lake craft and
obtain business from them in return
The result will be a sharp reduction
in the toll the American people are
forced to pay In the gulse of freight
charges, a closer relationship be-
tween the markets and the produc-
ing centers of the country and a con-
sequent braclng up of internal COM
merce.
Already the effects of this move
ment toward water transportation are
J beginning to show themselves Larg-
er vessels are being constructed for
the lake trade, more money is being
put into docks and loading and un-
loading apparatus, and greater atten-
tion Is being given to dredging WORK
in harbors and channels.
One remarkable feature of the
| Rogers record is the fact that in
each of its numerous trips between
Lake Superior and Lake Erie 1t was
compelled to traverse 100 miles of
channel and canals. Although It is
eoO-foot steamer it did not meet
with a single mishap in the interlake
traffic. Its captain took it through
the tortuous locks without so much
as scratching its paint.
This performance is the best ans
wer to those who protest that the
navigation of the rivers by steamers
OF any size is an impossible feat.
There are many who claim that ves-
sells OF a size large enough to make
them OF any value at all cannot be
operated on the inland streams. no
matter how elaborately those streams
are developed. The record Of the
steamer Rogers is sufficient illustra-
ton of the sophistry of their conten-
ton. Although a lake steamer of
great tonnage, yet 1t traversed las,
season in 20 trips evactly 464O miles
OF channels and canals without an ac-
cident.
