Mr. Byars Soliciting Aid to Pay Off the Indebt
edness of the Blount State Agri
cultural College.
Mr. T. M. Byars of Blountsville Is In
the city and will devote a week to per
sonal solicitation for funds to pay oft
the debt of $1000 of the Blountsville new
school building.
It will be remembered that on the 5th
of last January the old building was
consumed by fire, and in its stead has
been erected a handsome new structure,
and Is now known as the Blount County
Agricultural School and Experimental
station, fostered by the state.
In this school any boy or girl In the
state can receive a liberal education free
of tuition. But to secure this school the
people of Blountsville and the Ninth
Congressional district were required to
erect a school building and donate It to
the state, with forty acres of land for
a station. This has been done. A mag
nificent building, 65x105 feet, two stories
high, is now completed and will be turned
over to the state as soon as the board of
control receives tt from the contractor.
The people of Blountsville and vicin
ity have paid for this building with the
exception of about $1000. This amount is
to be raised and the people of Blounts
vilie are asking the people of the Ninth
district to help them raise this amount.
This is no private enterprise, but be
longs to every man in the state, and as
such deserves to be fostered by them.
As Mr. Byars very reasonably puts tt:
Jefferson county should feel sufficiently
interested to give the whole sum, as her
children are to be as much entitled to
the benefits of the institution as those
of Rlount. Mr. Byars will put the prop
osition In its true light to citizens of
Birmingham and Jefferson county and
will no doubt succeed in raising a large
sum for the cause of so much interest to
the district.

SCHUBERT QUARTETTE,
Assisted by Misses Hughes and Reade, Seals’
Hall, December 5.
At Seals' hall next Thursday evening,
December 5, the Schubert male quartette
of Chicago, 111., assisted by Miss Read,
a reader of rare merit, and Miss Hughes,
a phenomenal harpist, will appear before
the taste and culture of Birmingham In
a select melange of vocal, elocution and
instrumental specialties. The quartette
has a national reputation. Of them the
Louisville Courier-Journal says:
A fine concert was given last evening
by the' Schubert male quartette. The
numbers were given without any Instru
mental accompaniment, and the effect
was a positive artistic revelation. The
programme was a popular one, but con
tained several numbers that fully tested
the artistic powers of the singers.
Of Miss Reade the following is suffi
cient high commendation:
Chicago, June 21, 1894.
My Dear Mr. Iott: Miss Grace M.
Reade, the young lady the quartette have
chosen as their recitationist for this sea
son, Is a pleasing, gifted and intelligent
young artist. I am quite sure she will
be a source of great pleasure to your
many patrons and friends throughout
the country, and a credit to herself and
her teachers. Yours sincerely,
R. L. CUMNOCK.
Speaking of Miss Hughes, the Chicago
Evening World succinctly states: Last
Tuesday evening Miss Maude Hughes
gave a. brilliant harp concert. It was
one of the most notable harp perform
ances ever given in the west.
In a word, the attraction Is first-class
and entertaining.
At Seals’ hall next Tuesday evening.
The price of tickets will be 50 cents.

WITH LITTLE BOY BLUE.
<fn Memory of Eugene Field.)
Silent he watched them, the soldier and
dog,
The toys on the little arm-chair;
Keeping their tiyat through the slow-going
years
For the hand that stationed them there.
And lie said that perchance the dust and
the rust
Hid the griefs that the toy friends knew;
And his heart watched with them all the
dark years.
Yearning ever for Little Boy Blue.
Three mourners they were for Little Boy
Blue—
There ere the cold winds had begun;
Now two are left watching—the soldier and
dog;.
But for him the vigil is done.
For him, too. the Angel has chanted a song,
A song that is lulling and true
lit has* seen the white gates of the Man
sions of Rest
Thrown wide by his Little Boy Blue.
God sent not the Angel of Death for his
soul—
Not the Reaper that cometh for all;
But out of tlie shadows that curtained the
day
He heard his lost Jit lie one call;
Heard tlie voice that ho loved, and fol
lowing fast
Passed on to the far-away Strand
Arid he walks the streets of the City of
Pen re
With Little Boy Blue by the hand!

MORROW &
SHOOTS HIS PRISONER.
Mack Crawford, Colored, Attempts to Escape
From the Officer and Is Shot—Wounds n
A*
Not Serious.
Mack Crawford, colored, was shot In
the breast and arm yesterday afternoon
by Special Officer Sharp of Woodward.
The officer and his prisoner were en
route to the county Jail on the Bessemer
dummy, when Crawford jumped from the
train and ran. It is said that he was
making good headway towards his es
cape, notwithstanding the fact that his
wrists were looked together with hand
cuffs. Officer Sharp ran after the fugi
tive and called on him to halt. The ne
gro turned toward the officer, but started,'
to run again, It is said, when Officer
Sharp fired. One of the balls struck the
negro Just over the heart and ranged
along the breast. Inflicting a painful fleshf
wound. The other shot passed through,
the fleshy part of the negro's right fore-1'
arm without striking the bone.
Crawford yesterday afternoon told a
State Herald reporter, while Dr. Cotton
was dressing his wound, that he and an
other negro went into the commissary at
Woodward, and that he took a bolt of
cloth from the counter and tried to get
away with It, when he was intercepted
by the clerk. A few minutes later Officer
Sharp put the handcuffs on him and was
bringing him to the city, when he jumped
from the train, he says, near Smithfleld,
and tried to escape. He says he intended
to halt, but when he saw the pistol in
the hands of the officer he was fright
ened and ran again. His wounds are not
dangerous.

BUILDING UP.
The Commercial Club Membership Is Growing
Again.
Since the outlining of a new policy
for the Commercial club by that body
at its last meeting and the appointment
of a membership!committee to increase
the list of members there has been a de
cided reawakening of interest in the club,
and there is every reason to believe that
it will become even stronger and more
efficient than ever before.
The membership committee issued a
strong address, which has been printed in
circular form, and will be distributed,
but already members are at work and
asking those not belonging to join. The
following names have been handed in to
the secretary for membership, and it
is proposed to keep this list standing
until next Friday, which is the regular
monthly meeting of the club, to see how
many can be obtained by that time: Dr.
W. E. B. Davis, Dr. J. D. S. Davis, Jo
seph R. Cook, E. N. Cullom, E. T. Smith.
