 The alumni exercises at Isbell College last night was the most notable entertain ment here for long while. It was indeed an occasion to make the friends of Isbell College feel proud to see the stately mat rons and maidens, who are among the most intelligent arranged around the stage. No table among the numbers on the program were the welcome address by Mrs. Lou Mex. Taylor, and the response by Miss Leila Huey; also Miss Enfield Joiners es- say, which was received with fattering ap- plause. Mrs. Forney l. Boynton, who play ed an instrumental solo, was the only one applauded to an encore, and she performed with a skill that showed the careful train- ing received at this notable in tution shortly after its foundation.
 One of the most stubborn local fights that has interested our city recently was brought to a close today. The question was the election of a superintendent of the city public schools.

The fight had grown to such a heat that the city council threatened to abolish the board of education, which brought about q com promise Mr. Griggs was if elected, to change the faculty entirely, and the patrons objected to this, too, so the compromise was made by electing MT. Griggs on the promise that the present faculty be re- tained

NATIONAL LEAGUE STANDING
Southern League Standing

Pratt City came out winner in the base ball game with the Massey Business col lege team yesterday afternoon by score of 12 to 10. Great rivalry has existed be- tween the two clubs and the contest was flor keeps" from first to last
 The game was anybody's until the fifth inning, when with two men on bases, c. Donaldson cought the ball on the end of his bat and landed it over the right fielder's head for home run, scoring three runs. This gave the Pratt City team a lead of four runs, and although the Birmingham boys struggled hard they could not catch up with the procession and finished two runs behind the boys from the mining city.
 The fielding of both teams was excellent and though the Massey team made a ma jority of the hits, they failed to bunch them at the proper time and lost the game. Frorm a pitching standpoint the game was about even. Hill, of Pratt City, struck out six men and allowed eleven hits, while Terry struck out five men and allowed ten hits. Each twirler had three bases on balls to his credit
 At least five hundred spectators witnessed the game, and the rooters on the lines kept things lively throughout the contest.

YOUNG AT SIXTY.

Serene comfort and happiness in ad. vanced years are realized by compara- lively few women.
 Their hard lives, their liability to se- rious troubles on account of their pecu- liar organism and their profound igno- rance concerning themselves, all com bine to shorten the period of usefulness and fill their later years with suffering.
 Mrs. Pinkham has done much to make women strong. She has given advice to many that has shown them how to guard against disease and retain vigor- ous health in old age. From every cor ner of the earth there is constantly com ing the most convincing statements from women, showing the efficacy of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound in overcoming female ills. Here is a letter from Mrs. J. c. Orms, of 220 Horner St., Johnstown, Pa., which is earnest and straight to the point:
 tDEAR MRS. PINKHAM:-I feel it my duty to tell all suffering women that I think your remedies are wonderful. I had trouble with my head, dizzy spells and hot flashes. Feet and hands were cold, was very nervous, could not sleep well, had kidney trouble, pain in ovaries and congestion of the womb. Since taking your remedies I am better every way My head trouble is all gone, have no pain in ovaries, and am cured of womb trouble. can eat and sleep we'll and am gaining in flesh. I consider your medicine the hest to be had for female troubles"
 The present Mrs. Pinkham's experi- ence in treating female ills is unparal- lelled, for years she worked side by side with Mrs. Lydia D. Pinkham, and for sometime past has had sole charge of the correspondence department of her great business, treating by letter as many as Q hundred thousand ailing women during Q single year.

SUNDAY MORNING.

Like some fair face illumed with love, The summer sky Is bent above. Earth, gay in garb of grateful green. With perfumed posies dewy-wet In belt and bosom bravely set. A balmy wind hath hither flown From off a bed of blossom blown Within the dawn of this fair day. Within the tops of trees that spread Broad-branching arms, a leafy screen. When we wander, sad, serene Brown birds are building busily, And ever singing as they build With tender secrets filled and thrilled (Ah little brown birds, have a care I, too, have builded, happily When life was young, and skies were fairl All up and down the quiet streets The human tide, set church-ward, beats; To mellow bells recurrent chimes, Unconscious keeping rythmic time. And ripping, running, light and fleet Like grace-notes softly set between Melodic measures gravely sweet, There is the sound of childish feet That follow where those others lead. Oifes fallow ground for falling seed) Harki How the chanting lifts and floats From out unnumbered swelling threats! Floating, flying far away To the blue that is bending overhead "Hosannai Hosanna! To our Lord and
 King!"
 "Let all earth's natives sing?' Peace! Peace! And good will" Let the sound the whole world fill. And the theme is ever-love. And the blue sky smiles above knd the earth is fair below While the soft days come and go. "On earth, peace and good wil!' "Let the sound the whole world fill
