BUFFALO BILL
MEETS OLD FRIEND

Decatur October 18-(Special.)-O a
side street in New Decatur is a small
room in which a German shoemaker,
Kasper First, pegs shoes from day to day
as he tells his customers about the times
when he made boots at Carson City for
Buffalo Bill and his men. That was in
the early days of the golden west when
Indians were plentiful and the buffalo
roamed the prairies In droves.
Mr.. First and Buffalo Bill were friends
and acquaintance in those days, and
often they have eaten barbecued buffalo
meat together and sat around the camp
fire while Buffalo Bill related stories Of
his experiences on the western plains. Mr..
First has a store of stories that he takes
delight in relating to his friends about
those days, and in his broken German dia-
lect he will sit and tell how he made
boots for Buffalo Bill, as he pegs away on
a pair of shoes.
Buffalo Bill was in New Decatur this
week with his wild west show. and Mr..
First was one of the first who met the
great rainsman and took him by the
hand. Together they sat and talked or
the times they had together out west in
the years that have passed.

Emu MERATORS ARE
READY FOR WORK

Decatur, October 18-(5pecial.)- P.
Wood, supervisor of the United States
census for this district, with headquar-
ters at Hartselle, was In Decatur today.
He stated that the census enumerators
would commence work In this district on
April 10, and that there would be about 200
enumerators in all in the district. In
cities of 5000 inhabitants and over the
enumerators are required to complete
their work In two weeks. In districts less
than 5000 the enumerators will have 80
days In which to do their work.
The United States census of 10 years ago
gave this congressional district 194,441. 1t
is believed that the census this year will
give the district something like 100000 or
$4,000 population. In this event it would
mean a revision of the congressional dis
tricts and would probably give to this
end Of the state another congressman.
1t is believed that this census will give
the two Decaturs a population of fully
10000. Ten years ago the two Decaturs
had a combined population of 1851, but
since that time the population has more
than doubled. Besides the increase in the
population Of the Decaturs during these
years the population of the suburbs of
Fairview, Austinville and Moulton Heights
has increa sed remarkably.

BY w. G. NICHOLAS,

New York. October 16.-(Special. 1.-THE
stock market has run into season of
fairly tight money, not tight the way it
sometimes is during the crop moving sea-
son, but tight beyond anything we have
seen since panic days. Bank clearings
all over the country range from rs to so
per cent greater than they were a year
ago, and every development of the day
indicates a very large general demand for
funds.
Wheat is going on the market around
81 bushel, corn around So cents and cot
ton $50 bale higher than a year ago.
The steel and iron production is going on
at a larger volume than ever before In
history. and increasing. Railroad ton
mage is enormous. All this calls for
money to a vast aggregate
The conservative element In stock mar
ket and financial circles have been watch
ing these developments for some time
back and making the wise prediction that
there was not enough money in sight
or available to meet the demands of le-
climate business. and at the same time
finance a continuance Of a bull campaign
in stocks on top of what has already been
achieved in that direction.
1t looks today as though this prediction
is in process of being confirmed and then
there is another thing which must be
taken into consideration. In the carry
ing out of the plans for merger of in
dependent iron and steel companies from
800. 900, 900 to $125,0OO,o0O will be required
in underwriting. That must be money in
hand to pay cash for certain properties
and to provide a large working capital

of other stop-gap exigencies that always
arise In the organization Of great indus
