the trading in Oleum, which advanced from

owing to the fact that a big well has been

an advance for this stock. Mexican was quiet,
but remained firm. California Midway showed
a slight advance and Union was an active

 progress of the new south, as exemplifed by Greater Birmingham, the coming city of the south.
 Camp Hardee yesterday adopted resolu- tions on the death of the late Wilbur F. Hogan, a deceased member of the camp. The resolutions were introduced by a committee of two, appointed to draw them up, composed of J. W. Bush and w. w. Wilson.
 Following is copy of the resolutions adopted:
 Wilbur F. Hogan was born May 8, 1S42, and spent his boyhood and youth in Talladega county, Alabama. Upon the passage of the ordinance of secession of the state of Alabama. he joined cavalry company composed of his comrades and schoolmates, which was later jncorpor- ated into the First Alabama cavalry, com manded by Col. James H. Clanton. They were assigned to duty in Kentucky un- der General Beauregard and A S. Jack son.
 'The subject of this sketch was present at the battles of Bonneville, Shiloh and Blackland. They were assigned then to the command of General Wheeler and accompanied General Bragg through the Kentucky campaign; were present at Perryville and Murphreesboro; were &C., tive in all the movements of the western army under Bragg and J. E. Johnston, scouting and covering the Hanks of the armies on the march from middle Ten nessee to Atlanta, and were present in the fight before Atlanta. After the fall of Atlanta the command was detached and followed sherman in his march to the sea. He was captured in, the swamps near Savannah on Decem- Der il, 1864, and was sent to a prison ship at Hilton Head, N. c.
 When the surrender came he was paroled and allowed to return to his home in Talladega. He remained here but short time, and went to Texas, where he lived for number of years and married. He spent the last years of his life in Bir- mingham with his family and friends. ''He was a brave soldier, faithful to the cause and principles he advocated. He was a loving husband and a kind and af- fectionate father. Whatever faults he attributed to the stormy times in which he lived, than to viciousness of temper, and we remember only his lovable nature and fidelity to his principles. Be 1t resolved, That in the death of Wilbur F. Hogan, Camp Hardee has lost one of it's most faithful members, and that his surviving comrades cherish his memory and will emulate his virtues. We trust that his spirit now rests under the trees by the side of the river of life, where pain and sorrow will never again afflict him.

S1OO0 BOND LOST
 ON 2OTH STREET
MAN TAKING BUNCH OF BONDS TO BANK FOR DEPOSIT LOSES THEM FEN ROUTE AND LATER RECOy- FRS TWO

Leo Kayser, cashier and office mana ger of Otto Marx & Co.,. bankers and brokers, while on his way from the Brown Marx building along Twentieth street to the First National bank yester- day, lost a 5000 bond, issued by Ale ghany county, Va. He was carrying a package of securities to the First Ma tional there to be placed in Marx & Co. s safe deposit box. Keiser says that the India rubber band which held the pack age together broke and that several of the bonds fell to the ground. As soon as he discovered that the package had come loose he quickly counted those in his hand and discovered that three were missing He then hurriedly retraced his steps and found two of the bonds on the sidewalk in front, of Yeatman, Reynolds & Co.'S store. The missing bond Is sup posed to have been picked up by some pedestrian passing along the street just at the time the bonds fell from the pack age
