Moses Bros.’ bank, at Montgomery, Ala., suspended payment Monday morn ing, and all real estate, personal property and bills of exchange have been included in the sss gnment to 11. A. Saver, R. B. Snodgrass and S. M. Levine. They say their assets will amount to more than their liabilities. Neither figure can yc-t be approximately estimated. The failure is due to the stringency of money. Their liabilities are said to be about haif a million dollars. The firm stands very high for integrity, and few believe tiiat there is anything ugly about the suspension. Each individual has in cluded his home, all real estate and per sonal property, in the schedule of as signments. The failure was a blow to the people of the city. Nearly every la boring man, clerk and sewing woman in Montgomery, who was trying to save money, had deposits in the suspended bank. Among the depositors are hun dreds of negroes, who have deposits ranging from five or ten to fifteen hun dred of two thousand dollars each. It is estimated that the amount due depositors is between $350,000 and $500,0 . The embers of the firm have surren dered everything they poss>ss, personal and real, without, any claim for exemption or dower being put in by the wives of the married members. WHERE THE MONEY IS. The failure is a topic of gossip and wide spread consternation among the peo ple. It has leaked out that some of the bankers met a few nights ago offering their aid in a substantial manner, but the offer was not accepted, the amount being but about one hundred thousand dollars, while the liabilities as estimated are near if not over half a million. It will take the trusstees some time to ascertain with any degree of accuracy the true state of affairs, there being perhaps over three thousand positors ranging in sums from two dollars to many thou c ands. ANOTHER FAILURE. A Montgomery dispatch says: E. M. Strauss & Cos., large furniture dealers told out Tuesday morning to preferred creditors. Among the number are Strauss & Sons, of Jackson, Miss., and Mayer & Son, of Cincinnati. The firm also ran a rectifying house, which was sold to the same parties. Strauss & Cos. owed Muses Bros., who failed Monday for $20,000. Ihe purchasing creditors represent at in debtedness of $45,000. AND YET ANOTHER. Another telegram states that the Bank of Commerce, of Sheffield. Ala., closed its doors Tuesday morning, having as signed. The failure was caused by the failure of Moses Bros.’ bank, in Mont gomery, as the two banks were closely ailied. The assets and liabilities are not known THE GREAT REUNION To bo Held at the World’s Fair in 1893. A Chicago dispatch of Sunday says: The Word’s Fair managers and the G. A. R. men of Chicago, and the best business men of the city, heartily approve of the scheme for a grand reunion of the blue and gray at the World’s Fair in ’93, and will assist in the matter. A committee, consisting of the leading ex-soldiers ot the G. A. R., were selected to have charge of the work at Chicago, and a like committee will assist them, com posed of the ex-Confederate soldiers liv ing in Chicago. They are all well-known business men. The reunion is now r an assured success, and the old veterans of the North and South, who faced each other on so many battlefields, will meet in peaceful reunion, to talk over their old battles and attend the world’s fair to gether. On May 30, 1893, there will be a grand union memorial service held, and the blue and gray will decorate with fiowers the graves of the 0,000 confeder ate soldiers buried at Oakwood cemetery, Chicago, and the graves of the union soldiers buried there. There will be a national committee who will assist the committee at Chiesgo in th ; s reunion. Tents will be furnished by the govern ment to camp in, and the old boys who wore the blue and the gray can go into camp by states, and have one good time together before they pitch their tents beyond the silent river. There are hundreds all over the land who wore the blue and gray, the best men both north and south, who are offering their services to make this the greatest reunion ever held on American soil. A mass meeting of the survivors will be held during tf;e encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic at De troit, Mich , to boom this reunion. All true soldiers who wore the blue or the gray are invited to this meeting and to the grand reunion at Chicago in 1893. A TERRIBLE CYCLONE Visits Baton Rouge—Ten Con victs Killed Outright. A terrible cyclone struck Baton Rouge, Louisiana’s capital, a little after 6 o’clock Monday morning, passing from southeast to northwest. It'entered the city at Garig brickyard, passed up through Catfish town, and struck a hill just to the east of John Johnson's residence. lis path con tinued in a northeasterly direction, cross ing North Boulevard a hundred yards to the east of the governor's mansion. It then went nort.h, striking the penitentiary building and J. A. D< ugherty’s residenc e on North street, and thence beyond the city. The cyclone was 300 yards wide, and ricoehetted along its course like a cannon ball, devastating as it went. In the city no one was killed, though several persons were s riously injured. CONVICTS KILLED. The state penitentiary was partially wrecked. Ten convicts are killed and thirty-five injured. Five of these are dangerously. Following'is a list of the dead : Whites—lsaac McClelland, of Cal casin; J. A. Waggoner, of Claiborne; Fred Gage, of Ouachita; James Van Metter, of Natchitoches; John Gibson and William Willow, of New Orleans. Gibson was or.e of the Maly murderers. Colored—Nathan Chancy, of Kart Felici ana; Henry Calestin, of New Orleans; Beauregard Harden, of Bossier; Edward Buckner, of Caddo. Thoughtful Squibs. The first snow flake of winter how significint—and the first white hair! Life is a long course of mutual educa tion which ends but with the grave. The prayers of a lover are more im perious than the menaces of the whole world. Above all things always speak the truth; your word must be your bond through life. Lying is the basis of all evil. After one year of absolute truth crime would disappear. Some people spend their vacation in worrying over the business they left be hind them. Justice is a little short-sighted, per haps, but frequently has an eye to the main chance. You just bring a couple of little quar rels into your home and they’ll breed like sparrows. It is so easy to fancy one’s self right that self-condemnation is about as scarce as dodo’s eggs. Doubt is brain fog and it sometimes takes all the rays of the sun of experience to disperse it. She was regal, she was haughty, she was highborn and distinguished; and, like the rest of us, she was clay. Every incomplete work is a monument to human folly. Whatever is worth be ginning is worth completing. Don’t compare a girl’s cheek to the down on a peach if you want to be com plimentary. If there is anything dis agreeable to get on your lips, it is peach down. A Very Strange Fact. It is a very strange fact that a great many people, of sound judgment otherwise, do not give their eyesight proper care until it is too late. Glasses not suited to your eyes will injure your sight. Remember this. Mr. A. K. Hawk.es, whose name is known all over the civilized world as an optician and manufacturer of Crystallized Lenses, has established a factory at 19 Decatur Street, Atlanta, Ga., where occulists’ prescriptions will be promptly filled and the trade supplied. All druggists and merchants keep a stock on hand, as they have learned that it pays to keep the best.

PATENTS Sia-ii’srrfl ™ 40-pase bosk Ire*. AN ALLIANCE MANIFESTO Which is intended to Raise the Price of Wheat. A Chicago dispatch of Tuesday says: The Farmers’ Alliance is about to un dertake the experiment of organizing the farmers of the country upon a scheme of compelling the payment of corner prices for the 1891 wheat crop. An official manifesto has been prepared with great secrecy and will be placed in the hands of every member of the Farmers’ Alii ance, calling upon him to withhold a part or all of his wheat and inducing his friends and J neighbors to do the same until such a time as the necessities of consumers at home and abroad will force the payment of prices satisfac tory to the producers. The various farmers’ organizations have a member ship of nearly six million, and all of them are expected to fall in line With the Alliance, and to induce others not mem bers of any of the societies to do the same. The circular is practically of the relative force of an order from Gompers and Powderly for a neral labor stiike, the farmers being drilled up to an appre ciation of the overwhelming ad vantages of co-operation, The cir cular is lengthy and sets forth with elaborate statistical detail the fact that the fanjiers of America have been skinned out of $300,000,000 in three years through the machinations of the short sellers, that Europe has the short est wheat and rye crop of the cemury, and that conditions are providential for a trust. The farmers are directed to resolve that a minimum price of $1.35 in New York is moderate and conservative, and that they pledge themselves not to market their wheat at lower prices and then only sparingly and under the direction of state commit tees constituted lor the purpose of keep ing posted as to supply and demand, and strong reasons ate urged for the belief that this policy will soon elevate prices to the desired limit. The move is likened to a strike with the difference that the workingmen lose mopey every day the. strike lasts while the farmer makes money, and that the outcome is always doubt ful with the workingmen while in this in stance with the farmer it is certain. In the body of the circular is a letter from Professor G. B. Dodge, government sta tistician, estimating the crop of 1891 at seventy-five to one hundred million bashels, under the “absurd” 600,000,000 bushel bear estimate with a possibility of 125,000,000 bushels less. This is Dodge’s first estimate of the crop. The circular is decidedly sensational in its signifi cance. BUSINESS OUTLOOK As Reported by Dun & Co.’s Mercantile Agency. Dun & Co.’s review of trade for week ended July 4, says: Dependence on the crops is the reliance for renewed activity in business and an improvement in the monetary situation, and the crop pros pects are still very satisfactory. General rains in the wheat and cotton-growing regions have given much encouragement. The course of the market favors an early heavy movement in breadstuffs. The money market appears a little less easy, with stringency at a few southern points. There is less anxiety than of late about gold exports, and there is a prevailing confidence in the speedy recovery and expansion of trade. The iron market is dull, and while prices are gen erally a shade stronger than in May, a vague fear of the future check purchasers. Structural and plate i.on are fairly active, but of rails no sales are noted, and shipments for the half year are placed at 440,000 tons, against 775,- 000 last year. Coal has been advanced by dealers, but independent operators make no change. Business failures for the week number for the United States, 210, and for Canada, 27, or a totd of 237, as compared with 234 last week,and 253 the week previous to the last.

Colon, writes to the state department officially as follows: “I wish to call attention to the condi tions of Americans who come to Central and South America in search of work. Day laoor here is cheap. Fifty cents in Columbian silver (35 cents gold) is the regular daily wages. Americans cannot live on it, and, not being acclimated, cannot do the work required. Every day American citizens come to me to be sent home. They are not seamen, and I have to'rely on the kindness of masters of American vessels to send the pqor fellows home. The Nicaragua canal has lured many of these poor people here, and. now they are adrift barefoot, nearly naked and starving in Central and South America, dependent on the consideration of Americau consuls to provide them means to get back home. Some poor fellows who were sick and unable to work their passage back have doubtless died in the swamps. I hope the emigration of laborers from the United States lo this country can be checked, us there is no room for them, and death alone awaits them here.” FIRE IN COLUMBUS Destroys SIOO,OOO Worth of Property. Columbus, Ga., was visited by the biggest conflagration in the history of the city Friday night. About half past 8 o’clock fire broke out in the drying room of W. T. Harvey & Co’s, lumber yard, corner First avenue and Twelfth street,, and spread with fearful rapidity. A strong breeze prevailed at the time. There were over twenty-five thousand dollars worth of lumber in the yard, and was completely destroyed. The fire swept the entire block, including P. S. Crane’s grocery store, 1 Dolan’s wheel wright shop, Miller's hair store on Twelfth street. Thomas Gilbert’s fine residence on Second avenue, the factory boarding house and several other build ings on First avenue. The portion of the city ourned is near the river. The total loss will probably amount to SIOO,- 000 with one-third insurance. The Invention of Ink. The ink first used probably was some natural animal pigment, such as the black fluid obtained from the various species of cuttlefish, says Chambers’ Journal, but the limited supply of this material soon led to the use of a mechanical mixture of water, gum and lampblack, and the characters were paiuted, rather than written, by means of a broad-pointed reed. As ink of this simple nature was easily removed from the surface of the parchment by the mere application of moisture, it was early found necessary to contrive some means of forming a more durable ink, and lor this purpose the ex pedient was adopted of treating the mix ture with some substance, such as vine gar, of the nature of a mordant, which would penetrate the parchment written upon and form an ink not liable to fade. A chemical dye, consisting of an infu sion of galls, with sulphate of irou, was alter ward used, as from its vitreous na ture it bit into the medium employed, but a compound vegetable ink contain ing a good deal of carbon pigment was subsequently adopted, and was very gen erally employed down to the middle ages. With ink of this sort the best and most aacient manu-cripts which have been preserved to us were written, and the separate leaves, after being allowed to dry slowly, were bound together in volumes. Pliny and Vitruvius, as well ias other writers, give recipes for the manufacture of inks. For Dyspepsia, Indigestion, and Stomach . disorders, use Brown’s Iron Bitters.
