Some Beautiful New Styles Just Added to
the Large Stock on Hand.
You Lave beard a great deal about the advance on Carpets in
consequence of the McKinley bill, and the half has hardly been told ;
but my opposition to a protective tariff leads me to dp all that I can to
lessen the burdens it imposes, and I am determined to sell you
Carpets AS YoW AS y6u EVER BOUGHT THEM, REGARD-
LESS OF THE TARIFF.
To enable me to do this I sell for CASH, and at MUCH
SHORTER PROFITS thnn I could do on a CREDIT. I will take
great pleasure in showing my Carpets to everybody.

Marsh, Smith A Marsh.
That is the title of the firm that is to
succeed the old Arm of Moore, Marsh
& Co.
This waa settled yesterday morning,
and the detalla of the new partnership
were given to the buslncse world.
Public Interestin the succession to the
old firm of Moore, Marsh & Co , has
been greater in Atlanta than that over
any other event that has occurred for
many years. This old and reliable firm
has held such a prominent place in the
esteem of the trade throughout the
southern states that every one will be
gratified by the announcement that the
men who have been so largely instru
mental in its success are to remain in
active business, and at the same old
stand.
The new Arm is composed of Messrs.
E. W. Marsh, John A. Smith and Mc
Allen B. Marsh, general partners, and
Hugh T. Inman, special partner.
None of these gentlemen need an in
troduction to the merchants or people
generally of the south. Mr. E. W. Marsh
has been, ever since the foundation of
the firm of Moore A Marsh many years
ago, universally recognized as one of the
strongest merchants of the south. Mr.
Smith has been long a member of the
present Arm, while Mr. McAllen Marsh
is everywhere recognized as one of the
beat young business men in the south,
and has been one of the active members
of the present firm.
The fact that Mr. Hugh Inman ie to be
largely Interested as a special partner in
the new firm would be a strong endorse
ment of any firm.
The following gentlemen, who have
been long connected with the old firm,
and who are well known to the trade,
will have an Interest in the profits of the
business: Messrs. Henry Dawson, Wil
liam Eckford, Frank Perryman, Frank
Baker, Lawson Stapleton, Henry Wyatt
and Eugene Callaway.
Mr. Lawson Stapleton has many
friends and relatives in Amerlcus who
wllljbe glad to learn of thle well-de
served piece of good fortune, even
though it be only a Just recognition of
his merits and value. Mr. Stapleton, as
a traveling salesman has few equals in
this section, and bis business acquaint
ance] extends over a wide territory,
throughout which he hat hosts of friends,
and commands a large Influence. The
new firm In retaining the Interest of Mr.
Stapleton hoe secured a valuable busi
ness associate.
While the old firm of Moore, Marsh A
Co., dealt In dry goods, notions, boots
and shoes and hats, the new firm will
make a specialty, and deal only in shoes,
notions and white goods. The new firm
will confine Itself strictly to these lines,
occupying the entire building.
The firm of Marsh, Smith A Marsh
succeeds the oldest wholesale dry goods
establishment in the state, the old firm
having been founded over forty years
ago. The record of the old firm Is as
good as can be attained In commercial
elroles. The new firm will begin Janu
ary let, and will have the prestige of the
old firm to back It The gentlemen
forming it have almost unlimited capital,
and if practical common sense wise
judgment eneigy and push can bring
success to the honest toilers, the gentle
men will not only uphold the prestige of
the old firm, but will surpass it reaching
out into newer and higher fields.
The Immense seven-story building at
the corner of Edgewood avenue and Pry
or street possesses every facility for car
rying on the great business which the
firm will undoubtedly do.
The following well-known salesmen
who have been connected with the old
firm of Moore, Marsh A Co. will remain
with the new firm of Marsh, Smith A
Marsh: Messrs. Louis Hess, Jack Farns
worth, Eugene Harris, Will Cotter, Britt
Stamps, Ed Hornady, Lyman Raleigh,
Bob Stokes, B. Sharp, Will Crowley,
John Hudson.
In the departments the firm will con
tinue, Marsh, Smith A Marsh will carry
with them all the men of these depart
ments in the old establishment
The present firm dissolves January
let, and the new will begin on that day.
Nolle# to Stockholders.
The ninth call of ten per cent upon
the capital stock of the Amerlcus Manu
facturing and Improvement Company
has been made, and will be payable at
the office of the treasurer, at the People’s
National Bank December let, 1801.

The police made a raid yesterday upon
about seven negro gamblers, but as suffi

ing, the gang was discharged.
Mr. Autrey advertises this morning
for a lost buggy, and Mr. D. W. Bagley
for a lost horse. Curious coincidence.
The same thief has probably stolen both.
The rain yesterday, commencing in
the morning about 1 o'clock and lasting
intermittently until 8 o'clock, was a per
fect god-send, both to vegetation and the
atmosphere.
Mr. Thornton Wheatley who has re
cently enjoyed the pleasure of seeing
the ‘‘Fat Man’s Club” bestowB upon it
the highest praise as being a. clean,
interesting and excruciatingly funny
show.
Should the president issue his procla
mation appointing a day of national
thanksgiving, the date will probably be
the 20th lust., and The Tiues-Recor-

houses be closed and the clerks given a
deserved and needed holiday.
Last night after the opera the young
ladles and tbelr escorts were Invited to

His Honor’s charge, whilst full, was
commended on all sides for Its pains
taking lucidness, leaving no matter of

At noon Judge Boynton of the Flint

A Beautiful Display.
There are few establishments of the
kind In the State of Georgia which can
compare in point of completeness and
style of stock with the haberdashery of
W. D. Bailey, in the new Hotel Windsor
on Jackson street, and yesterday pas
sers-by were particularly struck with the
beauty and graceful arrangement of the
contents of the handsome show windows.
Umbrellas and walking canes in new and
novel designs, and at almost any price;
ties in the utmost profusion and of a be
wildering variety of cost and pattern;
linen, hosiery and general furnishing
goods to suit any taste, while the as
sortment of stylish blocks in the cele
brated Knox hat did good to the eye of
he wboee pet hobby Ilea In head-gear.
The quantity and variety of these hats
brought out this season by Mr. Bailey
goes to show plainly that in point of
style and quality they are beyond chal
lenge.

"Poor Jonathan."
There have been few attractions In the
history of Glover’s opera house deserv
ing of higher praise than the Conried
Opera Uompan’s rendition last night of
“Poor Jonathan."
To individualize would be almost in
vidious, as each and every member of
the large company Is an artist, yet the
singing of Miss Rita Selby, as “Harriet”
and Mr. J. Aldrich Libby as “Rubygold"
are deserving of more than ordinary en-
contain. The duet betweeu these two
was perhaps the feature of the whole
and most excellent performance. The
audience, while of a high class, waa not
so good as this company deserves, tar
there was throughout the' whole enter
tainment no single objectionable feature.
The costumes were irreproachable, and
while “Poor Jonathan" abounds in
humor there was not the slightest sug
gestion of vulgarity.

ASLEEP SIX DAYS.
THE CHILD OF MR. CEO .W POOLE
HAS SLEPT ONE WEEK.
A Puzzling Case to the Medical Fraternity
-The Child Still 8!e<ping Heavily and
ail Attempt# to A waken Her ol No Avail
'—A Curious Cave.
gAbout two weeks ago the little three-
year-old daughter of Mr. Geo. W. Poole
of this city was taken with whooping
cough, which was successfully treated by
Dr. L. M. McLendon, after her recovery
she was seized with chills and these
were broken by the samo physician. She
went to sleep, apparently In perfect
health, six days ago and since then has
been buried in profound slumber, from
which all efforts to arouse her have prov
en ineffectual. Almost all of the phi si-
cians have been consulted and find them
selves powerless to break this sleep,
which, if continued, must end in the
death of the child.
There seems to be nothing wrong with
the patient save the deep unbroken
slumber which has seized upon her, the
pulse being healthily normal, with an
entire absence of fever. The attending
physicians say that unless something can
be done to arouse her she must surely
die, and hare tried every means In their
power without effect.
The little girl was a bright, healthy
child, the light and life of her homo and
evinced no peculiarity which made her
different from other children of the same
age.
This somnolent affection sometimes
occurs to adults, but there are recorded
few, If any, instances of the disease
among young children.
Boles' Big Victory.
Des Moines, Ia., November 10 —The
official canvass of dates was made yes
terday day the county board of super
visors.
Returns are coming in slowly. The
state register has heard from about sixty
counties out of ninety-nino. Governor
Boies’ plurality will be between 8,000
and 0,000. In some counties Sabin, for
state superintendent of instruction, ran
5,000 ahead of Wheeler, republican can
didate for governor. If this rate is kept
up Sabin will be elected by a small
plurality.
Other republican candidates on the
state ticket It ia thought cannot fall
through.
Youthful Burglars.
Atlanta, Oa., November 10.—Mr.
Mehaffey, who lives out by the water
works, has been annoyed for some time
by windows being broken and articles
stolen from his house.
Several articles were taken yesterday,
and the detectives tvere put to work on
the case. This morning Charles Burge,
Will Thompson and Ed Loyless, three
young boys, were arrested and locked
up. Several of the things missed were
found in their possession,

by to-morrow night.
A Disastrous Explosion,
Chicago, Ill., November 10.—At 1230
