In the issue of November 18th the
Financial Review, n magazine devoted
to banking, commerce and insurance,
and published in the great city of New
York, the following very compliment
tory notice to our townSman, Captain
r. c.. Marshall, is published:
1.-THE possibility that Colonel Richard
c. Marshall, OF Portsmouth, Va, will
become n candidate for the guberna-
torial nomination in his State is all
ready being discussed with no little in
terest here in the metropolis, where
Colonel Marshall is known. Virginia
has been so jealous rs to who she
places In the Governors chair that none
but the ablest and best citizens of the
State appear.-eto have the slightest
chance for even nomination, but
should she decide to thus honor the
Colonel she would have an executive
thoroughly in keeping with her old
time custom. AS q. lawyer he has shown
n wide range Of legal knowledge. be-
Ing not alone q thoroughly trained nd
wiser. but a capable and forceful
speaker who knows what to say and
the manner in which 1t should be said.
We think that the Colonel should be
prevailed upon to permit the use of his
name, for he would draw the full party
vote and much more. In the chair he
would admirably uphold the dignity OF
his Office"

CHAMPIONS OF THE SOUTH.
Is What the Baltimore American Saw.
of the Baltimore Medical College
Football Team


OF the Baltimore Medical College
Football Team
Tomorrow afternoon at Columbia
Park Portsmouth's very excellent foot
pail team will meet the Baltimore Med
zeal college team, of the Monumental
city, which the Baltimore American of
yesterday dubs the champions of the
South"
The paper referred to says: "Balti-
more Medical College team has that
nohor Their great victory over the
football team of the College of Physl-
clans and Surgeons at Union Park
yesterday afternoon. The score was Is
TO In their favor. A large number of
rooters present, with a good supply of
mascots. Some OF the best men on both
teams were unable to take part"
Continuing, in the body of the article
preceding the details of the game, the
American says. and the American is
recognized as authority in that city:
The Baltimore Medical College foot
ball eleven yesterday afternoon, at
Union Park, proved themselves to be
the champions of the South, by defeat
ing the eleven of the College of Physi-
clans and Surgeons is to 0.
About thousand rooters from both
colleges witnessed the game. The root
ers of the physicians and surgeons ar
rived at Union Park about O'Clock
two hundred strong. and with two mas
cots, donkey and dog. The game
was fierce one from start to finish.
and the hard training OF the Baltimore
Medical College men proved great
factor. The Baltimore Medical College
men played well. and deserve the title
of champions of the South, which they
have worked hard for during the year
The Physicians and. Surgeons have
good material on their team, but they
lack training and coaching. In the first
part of the first half the down town
doctors had the up town doctors going,
and 1t looked as If they would score a
touch down. From this point tor the
finish of the game the Baltimore Med
ical College had little trouble in making
gains and touchdowns. The Physicians
and Surgeons missed the service of
Bell, RCscnthal and Stick. who are out
of the game. The Baltimore Medical
College star players who are out of the
game are Mayer, Hcnkel, Stotte and
South. The Physicians and Surgeons
men averaged about ITO pounds. while
the Baltimore Medical College men
weighed about 1S5 pounds
Our boys appreciate to the highest
degree the strong team they are to
meet tomorrow and are making prepa-
rations to show the Baltimore Ameri-
can that the "Meds" are not champions
Of the South until they win from them.
Portsmouth has n clever eleven, as
shown in their contest with the team
representing the University of Mary
land, and that too, with several star
men out of the game. The "Mcds" can
not justly claim to be champions OF
the South" until they defeat the boys
who represent this city on the grid
iron.

OfScientifc and Standard Books at 2O26
First Avenue Now Going On.

Great interest Is now being manifested in
the great auction sale Of books which is

the National Publishers Association, at
Kings old stand, No. 2026 First avenue, for

FOOD AND SHELTER
FOR THE POOR
Mission Where Lodging is Ten
Cents, and
MEALS CAN BE HAD FOR FIVE
Those That Have no Money Are We'll
coined Without Charge, and the
Deserving Are Assisted in
Gaining Employment.
MEALS CAN BE HAD FOR FIVE

The Home Mission, for the help of the
unemployed and afflicted, is an institution
of which the people of Birmingham know
very little. This home was established at
2409 Second avenue on November Is last,
and is superintendent by William Woodford,
d. D., assisted by his wife.
They are both members of the Church of
the Seven Day Adventists, denomination
which works in this line altogether, and
they are doing a noble work among the
poorer classes in this city.
The object of the homo is to give food
and shelter to those who happen to be un-
fortunate and help them to secure employ
ment, together with a spiritual SOUL Five
and ten cents for lodging and five cents
for meals Is what 1t costs to go there and
rest. If the applicant Is wholly destitute
this aid is extended him free of charge.
Services are held every evening at 1880, and
are quite well attended, SO Mr.. Woodford
states.
Started on $50
This man and his wife came here in No
vember, and with only $50 in money started
this work, and up to now they have shell
tered over 200 suffering souls at an expense
of s152. On being questioned as to what
support he received, Mr. Woodford stated
that few voluntary contributions were re-
ceived, and that for such amounts as were
paid in, five-cent tickets were given to cover
such contributions, SO that the giver there
of could hand them to someone who needed
help. In this way about $113 has been do
mated, still leaving balance of S39, which
Mr. Woodford has paid out of the small
salary he is paid as minister.
At the outset a hall was rented at cost
of $3.50 per month and partitioned into bed
rooms, four or five cots being procured to
sleep on. However, this sufficed for while,
but as the work progressed, more sleeping
apartments had to be provided, and now,
owing to hard work and much economy on
the part of this couple, twelve cots are
open to all who may come. The place is
kept scrupulously clean, and is under the
Immediate care of Mrs. Woodford, who also
attends to the cooking unassisted.
Vegetarian Food
The reporter who called was shown into
the kitchen, and learned that the food was
entirely vegetarian. A meal generally con-
sists of beans, tomatoes cooked In some
form, prepared dish of grapes and home
made graham bread. For oily food a but
