crfcEet-yirgfafa Against naifimore
A two-days' Instch-gsme was played
on the grounds Of the Baltimore Cricket
Club on Tuesday and Wednesday last,
resulting in favor Of the Baltimore
Cricket Club. The Virginia team,
composed of English residents 10 Vir-
ginia, play ed good game, but W ant OF
practice placed them at q considerable
disadvantage, some Of the men having
bad no practice since leaving England.
The score was Virgins Cricket Club,
l9l /; Baltimore Cricket Club, 1913, with
FIVE wickets to fall. The improvement
in the Virginia team was so marked in
the second innings that they felt salts
fled little practice would have put
them on the winning side.
The Baltimore Cricket Club provided
an excellent lunch, which was enjoyed
by all.
A lawn.tennis match was played be-
tween two of the Baltimore crack
players and two of the Virginia Cricket
Club, resulting in favor Of Baltimore,
after very exciting and close game.
II it can be arranged the return
match with the Baltimore Cricket Club
will take place at the FAIRGROUNDS du-
ring the State Fair, in October.

Inspector w. W. Simpson, of Atlanta,
to-day elected A. N. Wilson from the
pcst.office, and placed Captain G. w.
Lamar in possession. Wilson had posi-
lively refused to turn over the Office
unless force should be used and went
out, saying: ~ am still postmaster Of

no right to suspend me under the Con-
stitution." Wilson was suspended for
offensive partisanship.

edly was Influenced by the strong re-
concentrations of Mr.. Pratt for the APP
pointment received from Alabama,
Louisiana, Mississippi, and New York.
The Minister to Persia was born near
| Mobile, Ala, in March, 1851, in an old
Spanish house which had been in the
family for many years. lie was taken
to France by his father, a planter and
finsncier, at the age of three years. His
preliminary education was received at
Tours, France, from whence he pro-
ceeded to Paris, where he spent four
years in college. He then travelled in
Europe extensively. After his return to
this country he entered the College Of
Physicians and Surgeons, New York,
where he was graduated in 1876, after a
two.years' course. He then became a
student at the Charity Hospital, New
Orleans. Next he went to London,
where be spent two years in the hospi.
tails, and was pupil Of Sir Spencer
Wells and other eminent physicians.
While in the English metropolis he pre-
pared a treatise on yellowfever, which
he had made special subject of study
while in New Orleans. Mr.. Pratt re-
turned to Alabama in 1880 aud engaged
in mining and manufacturing enter
prises, which have largely benefited
that Commonwealth.
DR.. Pratt is an Administration Demo-
crat. The only public Office he has
filed was that of United States Com
missioner for Alabama at the New Or
leans Exposition, lS8f.85. Speaking
Of the mission to Persia, he thinks there
may be great deal done in the way Of
the importation of raw silk from that
country, and in the expectation of our
machinery and merchandise to the sub
lects of the Shah, as much of our cot
ton goods as is now used by the Per-
slams is sold them by English merchants.
Opium, altar Of roses and cannibis IN
dica were named by Mr.. Pratt, IN con-
versation With a newspaper man, as
possible profitable objects of CONNER
cial dealing between this country and
Persia.
The Minister to Teheran, who will
receive an annual salary of $1,000
sum said to be entirely inadequate to
the requirements of the position--is an
exceedingly courteous man, tall and
distinguished in appearance, cookbook
ing, and his face ornamentcd with full
brown beard. Notwithstanding his
personal, social, and educational sdysn-
tages be is a bachelor.
