AMATEUR BALL GAME
Fast Talent Will Play at Park This
 Afternoon-No Admission

The first amateur game of the season in Montgomery will take place at the ball park this afternoon between the local railroad team recently mentioned in The Advertiser, and the Young Mems Christian Association team.
 The game ought to be very fast one as both teams have been prac- ticing hard and are in good shape for a bruising game. Manager White of the railroad team, had his team at the park yesterday afternoon for the final practice and the men showed up re- markedly we'll. MT. Mcclure, the Ath- letic Director of the Young Mems Christian Association, has his boys in good shape and they will be able to make a rattling fight. Molly will be in the box for them, and Jones will pitch for the railroad men, Spencer doing the catching for them. The uniforms of the railroad team were finished and delivered to them last night. They consist of dark blue shirts and trous- CTS, black caps and black stockings, and will be worn for the first time this afternoon. The game will be called at 4:30 o'clock this afternoon. and no ad- mission fee will be charged. MT. Will liam Stickney will handle the indicator.
 This game today is the beginning of the organization of a City League. and the amusement loving people of Mont gomsry are indebted to Commercial Agent Fred White and the railroad team for taking the initiative.
 The winner of the game between the Louisville and Nashville and Falcon teams next Monday will be challenged by the local team that played the Auburn College team some weeks ago, and the winner of that game will in turn play the railroad team next Sat- urday. These games will serve to while away lots of the long, hot sum- mer afternoons. and the people of Montgomery will doubles show their appreciation.

Selma has certainly made a great be- ginning and if they can keep up the pace they have started with they will be on top before the eighteen games are played out. George Blackburn gave Birmingham the game yesterday by forcing in run while Popp had been pitching great ball. New Orleans only got five hits off Bruner and Chat tanooga and the Pelicans are tied for seventh place.

SHOT FLYNN IN NECK.
Row Over Drink Question at LeaVen-
worth is BROUGHT to Sudden Close.

WI III - ~ ONN~ANa' O'SS~'
Leavenworth, Kan, Dec. 26.-James
ChiIdres shot James Flynn in La Joie' s
saloon in this city yesterday. Two shots
struck Flynn, one striking MIN in the
neck and the other in the forehead, over
the left eye. F'lynn's wounds are not
regarded as serious.
The shooting grew out of a quarrel
over the drinks in La Joie's saloon.
Flynn, who works for La Joie entered
the saloon while Childres and a number
of men in the saloon were disputing the
drink question, and attempted to inter-
fere. Childres resented Flynn's inter
ference, and told him to keep out. which
Flynn refused to do. Childres then drew
a revolver and fired three times at Flynn,
two of the shots taking effect. The bar
tender at this juncture grabbed shotgun
and struck Childres over the head twice
and foored him.
Childres was promptly arrested by Off
GERS Evans and Lowery and lodged in
the police station, and a charge of assault
with intent to kill was placed against him.
The case viii probably not be tried in
the police court, but a warrant viii be
sworn out for Childres and the case be
tried in the city court.
Childres is colored.
