FOWLKES £ MYATT’S
Fall Opening a Grand Occasion and Enjoyed by
Over 5000 People—What Honesty and
Industry Can Accomplish,
“We miiy live without poetry, music anil
art;
We may live without conscience and live
without heart;
We may live without friends, we may live
without books, .
But civilized man cannot live without
cooks.
We may live without hooks; what Is knowl
edge but grieving?
We may live without hope; what is hope but
decloving? - ' *
We may live without love; what is passion
but pining? , . .
But whetci is uie man that can live wilhout
dining?"
Owen Meredith wrote these words un
der inspiration, surely. He little knew
how veritably they would bo realized.
Vet truth has more than proven their lul
lillment and the public been given rare
exemplitleatlon by Messrs Fowlkes &
Myatt, the very poptilur grocers, who
delighted their patrons and the public
generally by their delightful lunch served
ut their auspicious opening yesterday.
Never before has so rare an occasion been
afforded the public as that of yesterday.
The manner of the tender of this enter
tainment ivas of Itself'a rare treat. All
of the delicacies of the grocers' art vver6?
spread before an appreciative public
and served in the most auspicious and
appetizing manner.
Never before in the history of Birming
ham was so recherche a repast, with its
delightful eoncomllknt of service, offered
the people of our city.
The assistance rendered by the mad
ams and misses, wives and daughters of
our best and most substantial citizens,
made the occasion a "feast of reason,
etc.
Refreshments of every nature and kind
were shown and served, all out of the'
accuniulalion of this ample and complete
slock, exhibiting the thorough and satis
factory knowledge by these accomplish'd
caterers to the demands of the general
public, and housewives in particular..
The bounteous lunch spread by them
was an.earnest of what they have In
store, and the cordial and generous way
and manner of its serving will long be
a pleasant recollection In the memory of
all who participated.
It would be an endless undertaking to
enumerate the list bf household articles
shown. Suffice It to say that complete
ness characterized it, and in recommenda
tion of the firm to popular favor honest
dealing is vouchsafed in every .detail and
particular.
We commend Messrs. Fowlkes & Myntt
to the esteem and good will of all Bir
mingham and tiespeak for them a large
and increasing trade as a reward for
their painstakings and sincerity.
DEMOPOL1B.
Water Works Test Satisfactory—Ginnery
Catches Fire.
Deraopolis, Oct. 28.—(Special Corre
spondence..)—A test of the waterworks
was made Saturday afternoon with very
satisfactory results. Mr. Hebert super
intended the trail, and everything- went
like a charm, as it always does when ex
perts have charge of things. The trial
was made with very low pressure, thirty
five pounds, and yet it was sufficient to
throw the stream above our highest two
story buildings easily. Our lire boys,
who all their lives have been fighting
fires with the old hook and ladder truck,
were quite delighted with the new sys
tem—so much so, indeed, that they vent
ed their pleasure on the crowds that
were gathered around by giving them a
free shower bath. Mr. Hebert was en
tirely satisfied with the way the test
showed up,, and so aJsu was the water
works committee. The standpipe was
finished this afternoon, and it is proba
ble that another trial will be made Mon
day, when the pressure from It will be
tiled, in the one today only the direct
purrfp pressure was employed.
Saturday morning about 11 o'clock An
derson’s ginnery caught on fire. In an
instant the blaze was shooting'up from
the gins and the press, but with a pres
ence of mind which is highly commenda
ble Mr. Anderson got his force to work
urlng water on the flames, and in a few
moments had them entirely under con
iol. In the excitement of the occasion
a darky named Tom-jumped
into the press and was severely burned
before he could be gotten out.
Great efforts are being made by the
friends of Hon. George VV. Taylor to
bring him out for congress. The entire
editorial space of the Linden Iteporter
is taken up with correspondence to this
end. There Is no one who doubts that Mr.
Taylor would make us the very best rep
resentative tve have ever had if fie will
consent to make the run; for if lie runs,
h is a foregone conclusion that his elec
tion will surely follow. As yet Mr. Tay
lor has not consented, and there Is much
doubt as to whether be w-ill ever do so.
He Is very candid in giving reasons why
be could not make the run and his rea
sons are f^od and sufficient, but we all
hope that there will be some way to over
come them, for nothing could give us
more genuine pleasure than to be repre
sented in congress by such a man as is
Hon. George W. Taylor._.

THE SOUTHERN CLUB RECEPTION.
The fifth annual reception of the South
ern club was the most brillant in its
successful history. Ketch year has chron
icled the triumphs of this our oldest,
largest and most prominent club, and the
reception of last evening tti tin; hand
someset of its records. It was more
splendid than any of its predecessors in
its elegant details and appointments and
in the very large attendance of beauti
ful, exquisitely gowned women and the
handsome men of our own good town
and from other cities of Alabama, and of
states near and remote. For days the
deft fingers of florists had been busy dec
orating the great parlors and reading
rooms with splendid palms and grace
ful branch** of the bamboo, in every
available nook, in every point of vantage
stood palms'which had required almost
*a‘IJfjj uif\e^'d grow, and over doors, win
dows 'and pictures trained the bamboo
vines in artistic profusion. In the hand
s' me rooms there were lovely bowers
f.orifibd with swaying curtains of the
.same vines adorned with white roses
and chrysanthemums, which gleamed like
stars from the soft, dark background of
hapiboV pn’.the third floor the spacious
ball room was used for dancing from 10
o’clock until long past midnight. The
splendid su|>per, which was an elaborate
and Sumptuous collation, was served in
perfect taste in the large billiard room.
There were five great tables, one in the
center holding fruit and bunches of beau
tiful Catherine Mermet roses, and in the
-four corners of the room four other ta
bles decorated with roses, at which the
guests were seated while supper was
✓served. The menu was delicious and
elaborate and served in several courses,
‘.accompanied by champagne. An excel
lent band-of six pieces furnished the mu*
/b . and nof a detail was lacking to make
, it a complete and beautiful entertain
ment. The costumes of the ladies were
unusually handsome. There wore the
soft, bewitching gowns of the debutantes,
t'ho lustrous silks and satins of the older
belles, and the stately, regal toilettes of
the lovely matrons, whose presence added
so much to the success of the evening.
There was laughter and brilliant repar
tee, which kept time to the rise and fall
of music; there was the fascination of
the dance, and overy good thing that
makes time stand still while hanDiness
holds sway.
As the night waned, and the stars sank
one by one, the fifth reception of the
Southern club drew to its close and went
on record in the minds of the hundreds
of guests as one of the most beautiful
and splendid within their memories.

VAN ALAN ACCEPTS SERVICE.
He Gives a Mortgage on all of His Property to
Secure the Sheriffs Against Loss.
Newport, R. I., Oct. 25.—Upon Janies
J. VanAlan's arrival last evening Deputy
Sheriff Kaull was summoned to Wake
hurst, and. -together with Sumuel R. Ho
ney, who is managing the local end of the
difficulty under the direction of Mr. Van
Alan's New York lawyers, was in consul
tation with Mr. VanAlan until a late
hour last night. As a matter of form,
the writ of arrest was presented, but the
reading of It was waived, and Charles
H. Koehne. Jr., Colonel Honey's assist
ant, was accepted as bail, while as sure
ty the whole of Mr. VanAlan s extensive
and elaborate estate, Wakehurst, was
mortgaged to James Anthony, sheriff,
and Pardons Kaull, deputy sheriff. This
property is taxed for $217,900, and the
mortgage specifically says that it is
given only for a bond on the payment
of all losses, costs, damages, expenses,
suits, actions, claims and demands which
the sheriffs may sustain or be subjected
to by the acceptance of Koehne as bail,
he being a. young man working for his
daily bread. It also provides for Van
Alan's paying the final Judgment in the
suit for which the writ is Issued, or in
case of failing to do this the deed shall
be in full force as a transfer to the sher
iffs or their heirs. There is no time
named for the mortgage to run except
that it covers the time the case is to be
before the courts.
HON. J. J. PARKER.
Hon. J. J. Parker of Mobile was greeted
at Seals' hall last night by a representa
tive audience of Birmingham. He was
introduced by Gen. Fred S. Ferguson in
a very pleasant manner, and for an hour
and a half he entertained his audience
with a collection of anecdotes and reci
tations that thoroughly tested his won
derful powefa of oratory, wit, humor and
mimicry.
Ills reproduction of th" voice and man
ner of the poet priest and patriot. Father
Ryan, in one of his sweetest poems, fol
lowing with Alex White’s “Bonnie Blue
Flag,” was received with a pleasure that
seemed to touch the hearts of every
hearer, as the mind reverted in kindness
to the memory of these once famous Ala
bamians. There were other selections
equally as good, and the colonel's appear
ance in Birmingham was indeed a suc
cess.
Hon. J. J. Parker is no stranger in any
part of Alabama. He served as a legisla
tor and state nffl ial and did valiant serv
ice on the hustings at various times.

Writes every letter in sight of oper
ator.
Does most of the work in writing AU
TOMATICALLY. and yields in the time
thus saved additional work.
It acts as If it studied the convenience
of the operator at every turn, and there
by lightens his labor and renders him
capable of doing- more.
It has a knack of keeping well and is
always ready at critical or other times.
These are some of the reasons why it
is so different from all other writing ma
chines.
The catalogues tell you more about It.
