pEEpLFs ERROR SAVED uTTTE ROCK
Armour Pulls Down Home Run Hit Amid Vociferous Applause se-0ther League
 Games-The Races.

Montgomery, July 19.-(Special)-Lit tie Rock barely escaped a shutout in this afternoons game. Peoples errors at short is what saved the visitors. The game was better than yesterdays. Crin- nion went in to pitch for the visitors, but was batted too freely, and was dis placed by Briggs, whose work was not the best that has been seen here. He gave five base on balls. Bailey pitched a fair game allowing only seven hits, one of which was a scratch. He was very well supported. The feature of the game was Armour's long run in deep center, pulling down a home run hit made by Wiley. Armour was voclfer- ously applauded for his brilliant catch. On account of the crippled condition of Neal Bailly and Clausen have been alter mating the games.
 Manager Hayes has practically signed Molor of Mobile, but the latter has not showed up yet for some reason. Ad- vance money has been sent to him. Hayes has another good twirler on the string should Mollor fail to put in his appearance. The attendance at the game this afternoon was fairly good. The official score is as follows:

THE NEW WOMAN.
REV MIR. WALKER HOLDS HER UpToLlGHT
Some Things About Her to Admire-She Has Come for Purpose and Will
 Not Stay

Rev. Hugh K. Walker, formerly pastor of the First Presbyterian church in this city. but now of Baltimore, Md, lectured to a fair sized audience at the First Pres byterian church last night on ''The New Woman's Pads and Foibles."
 pr. Walker is an able preacher and an eloquent speaker His speech was in- terspersed with numerous remarks and illustrations, but withal abounded with good, common sense. The speaker found some things in the new woman to admire and others that he could not approve. She would serve a purpose, however, he haid and the world would be the better E for her coming. He did not think she would last. in fact, he thought the end of her coming would be served in a short time, and her stay of short duration.
 Dr. Walker assigned three reasons for the existence of the new woman namely:
 1. Her disbelief in the idea that woman's chief end is marriage.
 g. Her revolt at being dependent upon others.
 g. Her desire to accomplish something.
 Treating of these subdivisions of hls subject the lecturer said it was the duty of every woman to marry, to marry a good and true man and to become pure Christian wife.
  idea of being dependent upon anyone Tor her support. She argues that she should go out and make a living for herself, the same as her brother does, and not become a burden to her father. The new woman is not content to do the work usually allotted to women, he said, but wants to leave behind her some eVl- dences that she existed, She is not con- tent with having embroidered some or having done some fancy work, or having been a good housekeeper, but desires 10 accomplish some great thing in the world by which her name will go down to future generations.
 The bicycle woman and women who de- yelop their muscular system to an ab- normal degree were objects of the lec- turers ridicule. He thought the women should take physical exercise, but they did not need the physical strength or their brothers.
 In speaking Of woman's rights he sald he believed they should be permitted to vote on all questions pertaining to the home and school but he did not seem to be in sympathy with those who demand woman's equal suffrage with man. Dr. Walkers peroration was a beauti- full description of an ideal home, where he declared, the highest type of woman is to be found.

THAT GOLD SHIPMENT.
Secretary Carlisle Declines to Discuss lt-Ihe
 Treasury View.


 Washington, July 19.-Secretary Car lisle. in accordance with his almost in variable rule, declined this afternoon to express an opinion as to the effect of the gold reserve, the shipment abroad Of $1,000000 of that coin would have Late this afternoon a telegram came from Assistant Secretary Jordan, at New York, stating that ". H. Crossman & Co had taken out $1,O00,000 for export. Since July l, by withdrawals of gold for redemption purposes, the treasury has lost about $1,500000. In that line, how ever, gold gains from mintage have partly offset this loss, so that the net loss to the gold reserve is only about $6IO0OO. The fact that such large gold shipment Is now made, following as it does those of smaller amounts for week past, Is causing treasury officials to inquire if this is not the beginning of an extended gold export movement. With sterling exchange at the high rate 1t is now com manding, $490 and over, it is calculated at the department that 1t would cost $7500 to go into the New York market and buy exchange for $1,000,000 of gold deliverable in London.
 The cost of export if the gold is taken from the New York Sub-treasury and ac- tually sent by steamer, it is figured would cost the exporter only about $2500 or even less for every $1,000 GOO. With the market in this condition the treasury officials can only hope for the best, which is that the commercial demand for gold for export will cease. This they expect will take place. with the movement of tho crops this fall, if not before.

THE BUSINESS MANS LUNCH.
Hard Work and Indigestion go
 Hand in Eiand.

Concentrated thought, continued i'll, robs the stomach of necessary blood, and this Is also true of hard physical labor
 When a five horsepower engine is made to do ten horsepower work something is going to break. Very often the hardi worked man coming from the field or the office will "bot " his food in a few min utes which will take hours 10 digest Then too, many foods are about as useful in the stomach as a keg of nails would be in fire under a boiler The ill-used stomach refuses to do its work without the proper stimulus which 1t gets from the blood and nerves. The nerves are weak and ready to break" because they do not get the nourishmeut they require from the blood finally the ill-used brain is morbidly wide awake when the overworked man at tenipts to find rest ill bed.
 The application of common sense ill the treatment of the stomach and the whole system brings to the busy man the full en- joyment of life and healthy digestion when he takes Dr. Pierce,s Pleasant Pellets to relieve bilious stomach or after a too hearty meal, and Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to purify, enrich and ! vitalize the blood. The Pellets" are tiny sugar coated pills made of highly concen- trated vegetable ingredients which relieve the stomach of all offending matters easily and thoroughly. They need only be taken for a short time to cure the biliousness, constipation and slothfulness, or torpor, of the liver; then the Medical Discovery" should be taken in teaspoonful doses to in- crease the blood and enrich it. 1t has a peculiar effect upon the lining membranes of the stomach and bowels, toning 1ip and strengthening them for all time. The whole system feels the effect of the pure blood coursing through the body and the nerves are vitalized and strengthened, not deadened, or put to sleep, as the so-called celery compounds and nerve mixtures do but refreshed and fed on the food they need for health. If you suffer from indi- gestion, dyspepsia, nervousness, and any of the ills which come from impure blood and disordered stomach, you can cn,e .poH,seD with Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery which can be obtained at any drug store in the country.

The sxndicate,s Position.

New York, July 19.-The bond syndi- icates portion in the matter of gold ship ment is said to be as follows:
 The syndicate is selling bills to all who want them on the basis of $4.90 for de- mand exchange. It is asking no more and taking no less from anybody. It has been approached by several parties who have said that unless the syndicate sold certificates to them at less than $4.90 they would ship gold. To these parties the reply has been that s4.90 was a fair rate and that a lower rate could not be made to one and not to all. Everybody who did not like the rate and thought better results could be obtained by ex- porting gold was at liberty to ship gold The syndicate has not reduced it's rate to any in order to prevent gold from being shipped, and if it reduces to any one if will reduce to all

THE PULLMAN COLONY.
Arrival of the First Division in St. Charles
 Parish, La.


 New Orleans, July 19.-A party of Pull man ex-employes arrived today from Chicago and Pullman. These men and their families are coming to Louisiana to locate as an experiment, and arrange ments for hcmes for them have been made in St. Charles parish, just above this city.
 The public is generally familiar with the particulars of the great Pullman strike of last year, which resulted in the eviction of hundreds of families from their homes in the alleged Model City of the West. The Pullman management made no effort to take care of these peo- pie, and when the strike was finally ended several hundred were left without homes and without employment.
 Some of the heads of the American Railway union, including Vice-Presdent Howard, came here last year, visiting Alabama and other states on the way, seeking for sites for homes for some of these families, where they could begin life anew. The Homeseekers, also of Chicago, took the matter up. and has been corresponding with the Louisiana people and sending emssaries here in the same interest. Some time ago com mittee from the Pullman colony came to Louisiana, and among other places visited St. Charles parish. They were delighted with the country and the cli-
 
 of farming life in the south, and several places in St. Charles were selected to make the experiment..
 The employment has been secured in St. Charles for those who are here today, and these men have agreed to stick to- gether for at least six months and give farming in the south a fair trial. Some of the men will go to work in the saw mills in St. Charles and will gradually clear the land and put in crops. Truck farming along the Illinois Central and Mississippi Valley has become & large and profitable industry, and 1t is antici- pated that under favorable conditions these Pullman ex-employes may soon es- tablish themselves in comfortable homes and become thrifty residents of Louis- jana.
 There are forty families in the neigh borhood of Chicago and Pullman who are in rather sore strait, and who are watching the experiment with much in terest, and if those who come south to- day are satisfied and successful these forty families will follow.
