Churchless Berlin.
London Leader.

1OIuOH l1tdueT.
 According to statistics published by the ecclesiastical authorities there are only $.712 church sittings in Berlin.
 As Berlin is a city with nearly one mil . lion and three-quarters of inhabitants the probability is that there Is no other Pro- testant city in the world where the dis proportion between population and church accommodation is so great
 The Empress has recently done much to provide new churches in congested districts. but the population is growing at a rate far in excess of the church building.
 Owing to the enormous size of their parishes Berlin clergymen are greatly overworked. According to statistics some of them have to attend to the spiritual needs of over 30.000 persons.
 Another curious report mentioned in the report from which I quote is that 10 per cent of the total baptisms registered in Berlin were those of illegitimate child ren. and as large numbers of illegitimate children are not baptized it follows that the total number must be much greater than 000.

The Exodus from Ireland.

London Daily News.
 The fact that more than 50 per cent of the persons who died last wear in Con- naught Cor Connacht. as it is now usual ly spelled) were over 60 years of age is not so much an indication of the longev- ity of the Irish peasant as an illustration of one of the saddest results of the con tinued drain of emigration There are no young people to die. It Is the young men and young women--tbe best and strong est clements of the populatfon-who go to American, and the proportion of old people, of children and of imbeciles amongst those who are left behind is ab- normally high. It is a case, not of the survival of the Attest" but of the sur vival of the unfittest." Not long ago a well-known Irish literary man. speaking of rural district which he knew inti- mately. declared that out of a popula- tion of between 2,000 and 5000 there was hardly single young man or young wo- man of maria geable age.

RoosEvELTs INTENTIONS.
Speculations as to His Probable
 Course in the South.

Washington Special.
 There is every indication that President Roosevelt will be very liberal towards the South. In fact, to the first Representa- tives who visited him in the White House he made the statement that he intended to be President of the whole country and of no one particular section. His remarks in regard to the South were of the pleas antest kind. President Mckinley was ex- ceedingly liberal to the Southern States and there is no immediate reason to be- lieve that President Roosevelt will not follow the course that was mapped out by his predecessor. President Roosevelt s mother was a Georgian and his uncle fought gallantly for the Confederacy du- ring the civil war.
 While the President will take very kind ly to Southern people it is not so certain that he will have patience with the war; ing Republican factions in some of the Southern States as Tennessee, Alabama and Louisiana. The great character of the man would indicate that he would dislike such fGCtional strife exceedingly. In Tennessee the patronage has been practically dictated by Representative Brownlow and in Alabama National Committeeman Vaughn has been the one to stamp his approval upon the success full applicant. The President will likely favor the dominant faction, but not to the extent of placing unworthy and in. competent men in office,

The slices were cut. literally, ''as thin as a wafer,' and spread out to dry an hour or two before needed. They were finally spread out on a hot tin pan, popped in the top shelf of quick oven long enough to curl up little and take on a pale shade of brown.

THE SOUTHERN LEAGUE.
President Nickln Says That the Re cords are Intact.

Chattanooga, Tenn. Sept. 2s.-(Special.) ) President J. B. Nicklln of the Southern League, has received letter from the Mayor of Little Rock, enclosing a check to cover the amount of the fine paid by Umpire Johnston when he was arrested over the recent trouble growing out of the Nashville-Little Rock series. It was through the efforts of the Little Rock club that the remission of the fine has been secured.
 President Nicklin denies the informa- ton recently sent out from Nashville that the records of the Southern League have been lost. He says that none of them have been lost, but are in the hands of Secretary Peters and will be found in as good condition as any league.

LOCAL FOOTBALL.
Prospects Bright for a Fast Team Capt, Patterson Working Hard.

Local football interest is on big boom. An enthusiastic meeting was held at the armory last Tuesday night, attended by more than forty football enthusiasts. As a result, a strong eleven was organized to represent Montgomery this Fan on the gridiron. Active practice was imme- diately started, and will be keptl,p dur inng the entire season. The first game arranged and to be played is with the Auburn College eleven on their campus at Auburn on October 11th The local men are hard at work conditioning themselves. and 1t is safe to say that by the 11th of October they will be in con- dition to give the Auburn team hard fight; while the local men will hardly have the fast team work of their col lege opponents. still they, will have de- cided advantage in weight; while the team itself will be composed almost ex- clusively of ex-college players of reputa- ton. Patterson, the newly-elected cap tain of the team. has already given the men to understand that he will play no favorites, but every man must make the team on his merit. In consequence hot yet friendly rivalry will exist and the men will work hard for places on the team.
