The Kings coronation promises to be

LEAVING HORSES FOR CATTLE.

The range horse will soon be a thing OF
the past, according to John W.. Snowden,
who has just returned from an extensive
trip through the States of Idaho, Nevada,
Utah and California. Everywhere the
ranchmen are devoting their attention to
cattle and letting the horse shift for him

Last year was anything but a salts
factory one as far as range horse prices
most of the owners got sick of the bust
ness. Then the British came along dur
ing the winter and took every hoof that
was suitable for cavalry work. including
dry mares and colts with age enough to
bear a saddle. Good prices were given
for the stock, but it has not seemed to
stimulate the ranchmen into securing
more and better breeding stock. On the
other hand, they are making no effort to
replace the animals that have been taken
cut. Unless some change takes place, the

CRESCEUS MAY COME
FAMOUS TRoTTER IS BOOKED
 FOR MONTGOMERY.
Fastest Horse in the World Will Be at Riverside Next Spring-Is Now on Pacific
 Coast.

Yesterday morning Manager Newell of the Gertleman's Diving Club received a letter from Lee M. Boda stating that the dates for Cresceus have not been decided on yet. Boda is the general man. agr of the circuit of theatres of which Mr Ketchum Is president-theatres at Toledo, Columbus and Dayton, O., and India anapolis, Ind
 his famous son of Robert McGregor. the trotting champion of the world. Cresce- us. From there he will in a few weeks begin to work his way back East, giving etc., more to break the long railroad jumps and rest the champion than any thing else. Montgomery is directly on the route that the famous pair will use, and 1t is pretty safe to say that Riverside Park will see the fastest. dizZiest mile ever shown in this section of the coun- try.
 Tie Atlanta track is out of the ques- ton. it being only a half mile affair and fearfullv choppy at that-the track at Macon, Ga. where MT. Plant has the mare Alabama and part Of his stable, is full mile but nothing like the fast course at Riverside.
 The track record at Riverside is 2:09, being made by Kremlin-Kremlin was of q who s9 0a was saE sred pens by Russell. a full brother to the famous Maud S, the dam.

 But to get back to Cresceus and MT. Ketchum-the stallion made his lowest mark at Cleveland, O., when he trotted a mile in the marvellous time of POP IA Of course nothing like that time would be expected here. for in the first place the great trotter is in his winter sea- son and has not had the preparation for a bruising mile that would be easy for him in the fall. If he does nothing else than lower the track record of 2:Gs speed greater than anything ever seen in this section of the country. Every horse man in the country is familiar with the wonderful record of Cresceus but very few people in Montgomery or this section have ever sa:n the horse. and when he gives his exhibition here people from all this sction of the South will be at the track to watch the flight of the renowned pair-Mr. Keto hum and Cres- ceus.

NO MORE PARLoRS.
The Living Room is Now the Prettiest Place in Small Houses.

A delightful change has come in house. furnishing.
 word is apt to conjure up a vision of onyx tables, impossible silt frame chairs, with satin seats a cabinet with shells and other brio a-brac; perhaps wax cross under a glass case.
 This sacred room in former years has occupied the front of the house and was not to be invaded by the children. Tn the new houses being planned there is no parlor. where there is sufficient space a rec option room is buit on one side of the house, or the dark middle room is used for receiving casual visitors.
 But the bright light room Is devoted to the comfort of the family. The piano: a couch, big table with lamp and plenty of space on 1t for books and mag azines big easy chairs. simple muslin curtains and fire are the other esscn- tials to complete this cosy sitting room
 The sensible housekeeper realizes that her visitors would far rather be shown into this room than into a stiff reception room which gives no idea of the fam fly life.
 far happier with such an arrangement than when the largest and pleasantest room in the house was reserved for vis- itors
 nings at home. where a bright fire is blazing merrily in the sitting room. q well-trimmed and shaded lamp placed conveniently near his easy chair and a stool for his feet. The small boy likes to have his dog up on the dlvan along side of him when he is reading.
 This would not do if there were dainty cushions and an expensive cover on it but a good Bagdad thrown over 1t. and sCme washable cretons on the cushions will be but little harmed. and the wise mother willingly sacrifices her aesthetic ideas to give pleasure to her boy
 In future years the man will be the bet of the room which the mother arranged for her chill dren. Comfort rather than elegance should be studied in the arrangement ard furnished of the house.

AS TO BASEBALL
NEW LEAGUE PROPOSED THIS
 SEASON.
A Selma Baseball Enthusiast Makes a Proposition for Independent
 League with Montgomery,
 Selma and Georgia Towns.

Selma, Jan. 2.-(Special)-'1 see from the papers said prominent base ball fan in the rotunda of the Hotel Albert Sunday evening, that there Is already a movement on foot in several cities in Georgia tof get up independnt base ball teams for next summer. It seems to be the opinion of everyone that base ball next summer will be even more prosper ous than 1t was during the summer that has just passed. At the session of the magnates of the Southern League held in Nashville a few Sundays ago. they were also of the opinion that the coming season would be a record-breaker for the game in the South.
 Take these cities that are now mak- ing preparations for the game next sum- mer and I believe that with the addition of a few more cities tlsat just as good and just as we'll paying league as the Southern can be organized for next sum- mer. Take Selma for instance and put a club here under a different manage ment from what the team had last sum- mer and one that tha patrons of the I believe that this city would be one of the best paying base ball towns in the South for its size.
 This league. if one Is formed and l have information from good source, should be run on the same principle that the Western Association will be run next summer and in that way they can secure the best players that there are in the business. For.- like the Wes- tern Association this new league need not join the association of minor leagues and by not doing that they would have no agreement to respect and by small raise of salary could secure the star players from the Southern or any other league, for base ball players as well as nearly everybody else will go where there is the most money, and by getting star players and putting up good games there would soon be great deal of in- terest manifested in the game and I am confident that it would soon be paying organization.
 "As both Birmingham and Atlanta are to be in the Southern League next sum mer probably the best cities to form this new league would be Selma and Mont gomery, Ala, Columbus, Macon. Angus ta, Savannah and Rome, Ga, and Knox vile, Tenn. All eight of these cities will support a good club next summer and while they are not as close together as they should be yet the circuit would be more compact than that of the Southern League and 1t would be an ideal oppor- tunity for some Southern Ban Johnson to get in his work and get up good pay Ing organization.
 "As far as the Selma club is concern ed." said the fan. "I think 1t would take but little trouble to get up enough money here to put club in this league If such B one is formed. 1 am told that the Street Car Company is willing to build a park and if they will do that they will also take some stock In q Selma club II there should be one gotten up for next
