HICKMAN WILL
 RACE WALTHOUR Birmingham's Crack Rider Has Entered Professional Rank
 and Big Match is On.

With the coming of spring great enthusi- asm is being manifested in cycling circles, and it is expected that racing meet will be held at the coliseum track some time within the near future.
 Ped Hickman, the amateur champion of the south, has come to the conclusion that he can beat Bob Walthour, the crack pro- fessional, and has announced his intention of entering professional ranks. The friends of both men are anxious for a match race. Walthour who won great honors at Madi- son Square Garden during the winter by carrying off the seventy-two hour cham pionship, is now citizen of Birmingham, and ever since his arrival he and Ped have been "scrapping" over their sprinting abil- ity, and the match will undoubtedly be pulled off before the end of April.
 Hickman issued the challenge yesterday, and Walthour immediately accepted.
 The cycling association has begun work on the track and it will soon be in prime condition for racing.
 Many of Ped IIickman's friends regret to see fira leave the amateur ranks, but as he has beaten everything he has gone against outside of professionals, he thinks the only chance for him to continue his career is to get in with fast company and see what he can do with the cracks.
 Outside of his remarkable record at Mad ison Square Garden last December Wal thour is one of the national champion sprinters, and has beaten such men as Cooper, Riser, Bald, Gardner and many others of the great American riders.
 Among the cyclists the coming match is the principal topic of conversation, and when the meeting is arranged will doubt less draw a big crowd to the coliseum track

WILL PUT A PASSENGER
 AGENT IN BIRMINGHAM
Central Of Georgia Will Probably Establish a Local Office Here-Raiiroad
 Rumblings

It Is stated that the Central of Georgia will locate a passenger agent in Birming- ham. The passenger traffic of that road to and from Birmingham has grown to such proportions that the one man cannot look after both the passenger and freight business. Commercial Agent Solon Jacobs and his able corps of assistants have had about all they could attend to in the past few months in looking after the business of the Central in this city.
 J. N. Cornatzar, southern passenger agent of the Mobile and Ohio at Mont gomcry, was in the city yesterday. Mir. Cornatzar was in the wreck on the Plant system near Ozark about two weeks ago and sustained serious injuries, but he has about recovered and is able to attend to his duties again.

 "Mr. Clark" he said, 'I want you to know a gentleman who has expressed de- sire to know you.'

A MORPHINE SMUGGLER.-Yes- terday afternoon a young man by the name of Kelly went to the sheriff's office with a lot of old newspapers, which he said he wanted to give to Doyle, who is in jail awaiting trial on a charge of burglary KeEy's evident anxiety to hurry the paper in without the usual examination given to pack ages intended for prisoners, excited suspicion. The papers were according ly examined one by one and leaf by leaf. In the middle of the package there was found pinned between two leaves a pack containing enough mor phir2 to make Doyle happy for a week. When Kelly found that he was discov- cred he had the nerve to demand the drug. It was confiscated, but the smuggler was permitted to go.

In the new Russo Siberian play. "F'or Her Sake there Is one scene which must fall little short of the ter rife, viewed from the standpoint of dramatic effect. It is a flCgging cpl sode. The knout, as l.he Russian cat Gnine-'tails is called, is made to figure, and the victim of the lash is a serf girl whose only offense, it would appear from reading of the plot of the play, is that she has won the love of a prince of the blood. The play is said to depict with startling accuracy the penal system of the czar's dominion, and true to real life, it is also said to be not without the lighter touch of whole some comedy. The play will be seen here at the Doris theater Xmas day and night.

PITY AND BEAUTY

The most beautiful thing, in the world, is the baby, all dimplcs and joy. The most pitiful thing is that same baby, thin and in pain.
 The dimplcs and joy have gone, and left hollows and fear. It is fat that is gone; gone with 1t, comfort and color and curve; all but pity and love.
 The little one gets no fat from her food: has had none for weeks: she is living on what she had stored in that plump little body of hers. She is starving for fat; it is death; be quick
 Scott's emulsion of cod-liver oil is the fat she can take. It will save her.
