PRIZE. Tirketa Only VS. bara ia BSD ill Our Mountain Home. TALZ.ADr.GA, ALA. Jumbo Killed.

Bsltimors Bull. Jumbo wag killed Tuesday night last, near St. Thomas, Ontario, having been run over by a Ireight train. Few emperors, kings, statesmen or poets ever attained a fume so widespread as that enjoyed by Jumbo at the time of bis doath, and still fewer have over traveled so widoly, met to many distinguished individuals, and won to an equal extent the devotod friendship of the dominant element in modern society the little folks. His name has been the synonym of greatness.

For many a day yot tho big elephant, the big baby and the fat man will continue to be designated by it. Considering the short period embraced in bis publio career in this country, the extent to whioh Jumbo's name has become a household word ia indeed remarkable. As the great king of beasts he was certainly entitled, if die he must, to obtain a worthier death than to be run over by a sneaking night freight train. He deserved at least a lightning express. It is aa if Hannibal or Julius CeBsar bad been kicked to death by a mule.

A Belle's Notion. Rockford, spocial Miss Nellie Dean, daughter of Tbaddous Dean, a woalthy Chicago merchant, yesterday morning applied for a position In the Rockford spinning mills, dressed in tho garb of a working girl. She was placed in the mending and mating room, and worked atcadily all day. It was learned that whon alio left home her father agreed to pay hor a dollar for every cent ebe earned by honest labor. Last evening she was given a check for $1, and a written recommendation as a faithful workwoman from the company "to whom it may concern." Iler father will have to pay up $100 for her day's work.

The affair created considerable of a sensation, but the report that she had taken a permanent situation was unfounded. She only worked for one day. She is a charming, cultured lady and a graduate of Vassar. A Smart Horse Thief. Monroe Journal.

Some time since a tramp came to this place of the name of Frank Reid, claiming to represent a rubber stamp house in New Orleans. He was accompanied by a woman, and traveled together as man and wife. He went to Repton, where he hired Mr. Al. Jackson's horse and buggy, promising to be gone only a few days.

He did not return at the appointed time, nor has he roturned yet. Mr. John I. Watson traced him into Wilcox, and there lost all trace of the thief, and had to return home. Our City Government.

THE changes that have been made and TUB I'ROSI'KOTS BEFORE US, There has been considerable talk of the changes which have boon made and which are likely to be mado in our city government undor tho present administration. Several weeks ago Mayor Skaggs presented several important ordinances for tho consideration of the council, among which was a complete and lengthy revenue bill Thore has been a good deal of street talk, pro and con, about this revenue bill, and knowing that Mayor Sknggs wos its fathor "and ardent supporter, wo have endeavored to obtain from him as much information as wo could touching our new Inws. The new revenue bill, said Mayor Skaggs, has been passed and will be put in tho publio prints however, it can do no barm to make a few notes in this connection. It will be remembered that a voluminous message was published several weeks ago touching the various interests of our city, and wherein particular mention was made of the absence of municipal laws. In no branch of our city government was there greater need of stringent and complete laws than iu the financial department.

This condition of affairs developed a conception of the present revenue law. This revenue bill was brought before tho council three weeks ago, and at two regular and five special meetings it has beeu discussed, and every section has been warmly contested. Now, that it has passed, it is earnestly hoped that it will be met with good favor by the people. It provides the ways and means of collecting suffi Death of Henry Cliett. It becomes necessary to note I ho doath of another of Talladega county's best citizens.

Henry Cliett, of Childorsburg, departed this lifo at hid home in that place on last Thursday evening, Sept 17tb, nflcr declining health of several months and sovcre illness of two or three weeks. Mr. Cliett lucked only two days of being- 46 years of age. He was a native of Columbia county, and the oldest child of his parents. He came with his parents to Alabama in 1859.

He was married to Miss Emily Wynri about IT years ago. He leaves four children three daughters and one son with his sorrowing widow. He was unquestionably one of our most worthy and most useful citizens, and was so recognized by the county bo far as known, and was affectionately esteemed by the community of Childersburg and country around. He was a solid and successful merchant, and in that business and all business he illustrated a fact that few men know how to manage, namely he accommodated bis neighbors and customers with liberality and patience, collected his money, and yet never sued anybody. He managed all this by quiet, frank and unobtrusive rules of his own, and was thus enabled to be of great help to the people and at the same time help himself.

Mr. Cliett was a Mason and was buried with the honors of that fraternity. He was not connected with any churoh, but was one of the most liberal supporters of the church to which his family belonged, and. otherwise showed an appreciative interest in religious institutions, and in hia last illness expressed regrets for having failed to unite himself with the church, declared a satisfactory faith in the Savior, and expressed hia purpose to unite with the church in the event of his recovery. His death brings a great loss to that people, while -his family can never be able to measure the profound depths of a bereavement consequent on the death of one of the most faithful and considerate husbands, and one of the tenderest fathers in all the land.

It is gratifying to be able to say that he left his business in perfect order, safe and easy to handle. His funeral sermon was preached at the Baptist church in Childersburg on Friday, by Dr. Renfroe. A Friend. MADIA Kilter i.H tent from pulukowai cauin, nil aeatMina.

Aftrb tlio (liHt of October thfl olHoe of ttio Alabama Baptist will be moved lo Montgomery. Tne Prohibition question is playing a very prominent part ia the Ohio State polities. Tns Chronicle says that the Sheriff's office of Jefferson county will be worth $20,000 this yoar. IIami-in, the inventor and proprietor of Wizzard Oil, died in Birmingham, a few days ago. Tnn Woman's Temperance Union will meet in Birmingham on the 11th and 12th oi November.

The State papers continue to talk of the probable timber from which Alabama's next governor to be selected. Dr. Talmagk has returned from his foreign trip and had a groat reception at the Brooklyn tabernacle a few nights ago. Thb President has been engaged for tho last ten days in removing Republican postmasters. Let the good work go on.

Thb Southern Pump Company of Nashville, lost their mill, buildings and six million feet of lumber by fire on the 16th. The Republican says that a new and elegant Methodist church will be built in Jacksonville this winter or early next spring. May, the city reporter of the Birmingham Chronicle, was shot by a woman last Thursday The woman is in jail and May it improving. The computation made at the Treasury Department in Washington a few days ago shows that the bullion value of the standard silver dollar, according to the London rates of silver is 79 T-10 cents. The Monroe Journal says "One of tho most available pieces of gubernatorial timber in North Alabama would be Capt.

James Crook, Of Calhoun. There is no better and worthier man in the State, and he is as popular as he is capable and worthy." The seventeen-year-old son of J. H. Staggers, residing near Greenville, while at work a few days ago packing cotton in the box of a cotton press, had bis neck broken by the fallow-block, weighing about 500 pounds, breaking loose and falling on his head. Editor McIver, of the Tuskegee News, has announced himself as a candidate for secretary of State.

Mr. Mclvcr is a very prominen journalist and has many friends in the State; but if we were called upon to name and support a candidate from, the Alabama Press Gang, that man would be Mr. Geo. M. Crnikshank, of the Birmingham Chronicle.

The Birmingham Chronicle's Trade Issue made its appearance last Sat nrday and its columns contain many things of interest to Jefferson county and tho entire State. We believe that the Chronicle has a briglit future before it, and the energy displayed in publishing this large and interesting edition should bring to it the united support of the people of Jefferson county. Tub Birmingham correspondent of the Montgomery Advertiser of tho 18th says "In tho United States court here this afternoon a judgment was given' the Richmond and Danville Extension which built the Georgia Pacific railroad, against the Woodstock Iron Company, the practical owners of the town of Anniston, for $27,070 42, the unpaid portion, with interest added, of tho 30,000 subscription to the railroad mentioned. The case was stubbornly fought here. A number of the counts in the complaint were successfully demurred to, and the case will go to the United States Supreme Court.

The plaintiff was represented by Bernard Peyton, general counsel of the Georgia Pacific railroad, and Troy, Tompkins London, of Montgomery the defendant by Heflin, Bowdon Knox, of Talladega and of this Let it be Extended. The extension of the Talladega and Cooa Valley Railroad is a matter that should interest every citizen of Talladega. We believe that its completion to the coal fields would be of more substantial benefit to our citizens and business interests than any connection that could be made at this time. Besides placing Talladega in direct connection with the coal fields it traverses for miles through the best timbered lands in the county, and after reaching the river it would strike some of our best farming lands. The road now runs within three miles of tho river, making a double daily schedule to this city, and the trade influenced to our town from along its line now amounts to considerable during the year and its extension would prove to be a great blessing in the way of business to our city.

We have been informed that this road has never paid less than 8 per cent dividend since it has been running, and it will be readily Been that with the extension anticipated stock in the Talladega and Coosa Valley Road would be very valuable property. We would be glad to see our citizens take an interest in this matter and assist in pushing this road to an early completion. There is no better opening for a young man with a limited capital than to engage in the poultry business. It is healthful, and, where properly conducted, highly remunerative.

Sto- Washington Critic Senator Vance, of North Carolina, is in the city and called at the interior Department. As usual, be had a story to tell. He said "When I was Governor of North Carolina an old lady called upon me one day. She talked about three hours on matters in which I was by no means concerned. I was thinking how in the world I could get rid of her, when suddenly she jumped up and left saying "Well, mister, I can't stand here jawing yon all day." "What did yon do inquired General Atkins, Commissioner of Indian affairs.

"Oh," was the reply," I apologized for detaining her. "The Old Songs." New York World. "Sing a Song of Sixpence" is aa old as the sixteenth century. "Three Blind Mice" is found in a music book dated 1609 "The Frog and the Mouse" was licensed in 1580. "Three Children Sliding on the Ice" dates from 1633.

"London Bridge is Broken Down" is of unfatbomed antiquity. "Girls and Boys Come Out to Play" is certainly as old as the reign of Charles IT, as is also "Lucky Locket Lost Her Pocket," to the tone of which the American song of "Yankee Doodle" was written. "Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat, Where Have You Beeu is of the age of Queen Bess. "Little Jack Horner" is older than the seventeenth century. "The Old Woman Tossed in a Blanket" is of the reign of James II, to which mon arch it is supposed to allude.

An Impudent Protest. Boston Herald. The protest to the president against a revision of the tariff as made by the organ of the Iron and Steel Associa tion is impudence pure and simple It asserts that "something like a feel ing of indignation is being aroused throughout the entire country at the bare suggestion of another revision of the tariff." Considering that both parties in their national platforms pledged themselves to revise the tar iff, and that the people intrusted the government to the party which made the promise most specihc and posi tive, the "bare suggestion" that anybody has a right to feel indignant at the proposition to fulfil the promise is an impeachment ol the right ot the people to manage their own affairs. Washing and Cooking School A three-story building is now ap proaching completion on the grounds of the Central Tennessee College, at Nashville, Tennessee, that will add a new department to that popular insti tution. It is to be used as a school of laundering and cooking, in which competent teachers will instruct the girls of the school in the highest art and best methods in these two do mestic acquirements.

This will be the first school of the kind in the South. "Want Her to Win. Says the York Sun: The hardheaded and crop-eared old pre cisians of 200 years ago would have snuffled mournfully and made a la mentable noise unto the Lord if they could have foreseen tbat the name of Puritan wan to be borne by a racing boat, but if it had to be, they would havechncEled grimly to see her come nrst. bhe is a better craft than the Mayflower, which, like her, left England behind. The Assistance He Needed.

"Philander," said a pretty girl to her baahtul beau. "1 wish you tie this ribbon at my throat I can't see. bbw to do it without a glass." "Of course, I'll only be too glad to," he said, and at once grappled the strings. After an unsuccessful effort of five minutes, during which he got as red as a brick house and perspired like a pitcher ot ice water on a July window sill, he stammered "I I don't think I can tie a re spectable knot, Miss Mary." "Suppose, Philander," she whis pered with a pretty little blush, "suppose you call in a preacher to assist." Like the unveiling of a beautiful mystery the situation unfolded itself to Philander and he feels better now. The willingness of "Yonng Amer ica to take charge of things, and relegate the age and wisdom of the Btate to the rear, manifests itself every few years.

While always treated as a new thing in state politics, it is really very old. It strikes each succeeding generation of youngsters as inevitably as does the measles. Tbe word fresh would apply better to such movements than the word There is nothing new under the sun, but there is plenty of the "fresh" young man. He is scattered about all over the State and is always just about to take control of its affairs." Jacksonville The depression of the coal trado in South Wales is so serious that over 40,000 men are affected by it. The national industries in England are at a low ebb, and the lessened output of coal, which arose through a decreased activity in manufacture, ia taken as special evidence' of an undesirable and very grave condition.

Dated at TallaUega, tins yM day of September, cient monies to meet the demands of the city. A great effort has, been made to equalize the revenues, and the burdens of government have been distributed among the various professions and vocations. Never before has there been an equalization of taxation, and never before has there been provision for systematic assessment and collection of taxes. Our charter prohibits a higher rate of taxation than of and in view of the large percentage of revenue which we have lost as the arbitrary result of recent prescriptive measures, it becomes necessary for us to meet this deficit by a system of privilege taxation on various lines which have never borne their proportionate share of the burdens of government. This law not only equalizes taxation, but it affords great protection to evory industry and-every line of business carried on in the city.

In my opinion, it will prove a great blessing to the business interests of onr town, and all will speedily realize it. It will enable us to keep our streets in proper order, it will enable us to pay for better gas and the five additional street lamps for which we have contracted. It will enable us to meet the annual expense of water supply for fire protection and drainage, under a favorable contract with a strong company, which will have a permanent and complete system of water works in this city before the holidays, and wo earnestly hope that it will enable us to put the question of public schools in practical shape at an early day. The slight increase in taxation has been so equitably distributed that no particular line of businesss will hardly realize the except, perhaps, those particular lines which heretofore have not borne their proportionate share of the burdens of government. The recent acts regarding interments in the city cemetery will doubtless meet the endorsement of this entire constituency.

It is now made a misdemeanor for any person to inter a dead human body within the corporate limits of this city without furnishing a certificate from the attending physician, city physician, or coroner, touching the cause of death, which certificate must be filed by the sexton. The sexton is required to keep a register of interments, and to have personal charge of tho cemetery. It is proper that this should be. It indicates the rate of mortality, protects us against contagious diseases and brings us within the customs of civilized people. The system of managing the finances of the town hus been greatly im proved.

A register ia kept of all warrants and licenses issued, the party to whom issued being required to receipt for, the same. Weekly reports are required from all officers. Our floating indebtedness has been reduced at least seventy-five per cent, during the present administration, notwithstanding wo have been exceedingly liberal in the way of permanent work on the public streets. Tho present board of aldermen have been exceedingly active and 8live to the interests of our city, and never could you fiud eight men who would be more thoroughly identified with the demands of a progressive city. Altogether it is pleasant to consider the outlook.

I know that there are a few croakers who make a great noise about our going down. but they are blameless. It is the fault of their cooks. If they would change cooks, drink better whiskey and move about more in the sunshine they would be less choleric and all things would appear brighter. I know of no city in Alabama that has more inviting prospects than Talladega.

Farm lands in Talladega county are worth an average of two hundred per cent, more than lands in Shelby, St. Clair, Calhoun, Bibb or Chilton counties, and are yearly appreciating. This fact, in connection with our great mineral interests, will necessarily make ns a prosperous people. Mr. Editor A very interesting revival was held at Kymulga last week good congregations attended.

There is no Chnrch at this place, bo the meeting was held in tho open air, under a suitable arbor. All the material for the arbor was furnished by Hon. Wm. Baker, by whom, assisted by Mr. G.

W. Byars, and others in the community, the arbor was built. All seemed to enjoy themselves socially and spiritually, and eight or nine young people were converted. Col. Baker and his very estimable family exerted themselves to make the occasion an interesting one, and succeeded admirably.

Kymulga is rising. W. Sept. 18, 1886. A Chapter About Boys.

Kentucky New Era. A boy is a funny thing. You can come about as near telliog what he is liable to do as yon can forecast Kentucky weather. His course of conduct'is certain to disappoint you at the most unexpected moments. When you are willing to bet your life that he is going to disgrace an occasion, he tones down to the quiet piety of a saint and by the time your gracious expectations are raised in his behalf, he kicks out of the traces and raises the very devil.

We have a supply of this species of bob tailed polly-wogs in Hopkinsville, who go about over the city at night and assert their "manhood'' by tearing off gates and destroying the ornaments on the fences of some of onr citizens. They have just about attained the legs of froghood and think it is time they were making an impression on the world. They know as little about their true condition as a baby does about infant damnation. They claim to be posted on all subjects and are ready to back their opinions on base ball and horses with their money. Tbey patronize the drama and are loud, but not always classic or chaste, in their criticisms.

They think hallooing "stipe" at a stage boy is the grand climax of wit, and to stamp when a gentleman retires between acts is, to them the funniest thing on record. They regard tobacco in all its forms as the great developing agent of mankind. They take kindly to strong drink and consider having been "as drunk as the devil the night before" one of the grandest accomplishments of the age. The redeeming fact about them is that they are slowly evolving out of this state of swelled headed puppy-hood. The only purpose they serve is to remind older men of the "long ago," and they afford ethical data in abundance to local moralists.

The one great hope of the community is that the police will assist the process of evolution to a speedy and happy conclusion, and that our young friends, who find felicity in destroying fence ornaments, may soon arrive at that stage in the developing process where they can pause and view with sympathetic eyes the fresh and foolish errors of another rising generation of polly-wogs. What Fred Grant Says. IT. T. World.

"A good deal of attention has been attracted to the recent article of Mr. ChilcU, of Philadelphia, about General Grant. One point in particular has been the subject of wide-spread comment. This was Mr. Child's declaration that Gen.

Grant was convinced that Tilden was elected 1 had a talk with Colonel Fred Grant the other day upon this very subject. Grant said that he was with his father a good deal during the winter of 1876 17- He has in his' possession papers which throw light upon General Graut's belief at that particular time. Col. Grant says he does not think that his father was clearly of the opinion that Tilden was entitled to tho seat. He says his father thought that there was so much fraud upon both sides that the title of either Hayes or Tilden would have been clouded.

He said "I think father's idea was there should be a new election. At least that was his original idea. -He was satisfied that whatever result was accomplished there would be a very large number throughout the country dissatisfied and disposed to look upon such result with serious distrubt. To avoid this my father hoped to reach some sort of compromise which would result in no election. Then the Secretary of State would have boon obliged to give notice fur another election.

My father was not able to secure this result. Tho Electoral Commission was a second thought and was really a compromise. Ifyou have anythinir worth advertise it if not, don't. Talladega Ala..
