If Kanzler keeps up the work of yes

but he plugs the ball on the nose when
hits are needed.

If smitty can only win today Blrming-
ham will probably take three straights
from Little Rock. Campbell comes on to-
morrow, and he has always been a terror
in the record of Little Rock. In two
years they have only beaten him twice.
All the boys got in the game yesterday
and went after everything in sight They
fully redeemed themselves for the bad
work in the second game with New Or
leans.
Jimmy Lighton. who left Birmingham
for the squirt league down in Florida,
was In the grand stand yesterday. He
says 1t rains down there every afternoon
at o'clock and they are thinking of
playing all the games in the morning.
Jimmy is looking all right but says
there's too much rain in Florida for him.
For the past two weeks Birmingham
has made a remarkable record. Since
their return home the Iron Men have
played ten games. They have won seven,
lost two and tied one. At this rate the
pennant Will be in danger.
The race this season is by far the clos
est ever run in the Southern league 1t is
interesting to note that Nashville Shreve-
port Birmingham and Montgomery have
each won twenty-eight games A few
games won or lost by the eastern teams
will make big change In the standing.
The report that a double-header will be
played Saturday is erroneous Birming-
ham has no postponed game with Little
Rock.

The Grand Finale.

The grand finale came in the fifth just
as a big black cloud doomed up over the
distant crags of Mount Stag. After two
men were out Duffy landed for single
and stole second. Jimmy O'Brien drove
a safe one to deep center and Duffy
scored. Vaughan shot a grounder at
Mailing and the little Traveller threw
it a mile over Pat Wright's head. White
Pat was chasing the ball Jimmy made
clean circuit of the bases and attached
the third run to the victory which was
already cinched.
After that there was nothing transpir-
ing on either side and the score wound
up just as 1t stood in the fifth.
kanzler did some great work In right
field during the contest and his run for a
fly to deep center was easily the feature
of the game. He also pulled another one
off the right field fence and wound up his
record by lacing out a nice single,
Frank Smith and his big bat "Biffer"
will be in the box for Birmingham to-
day and Guese will probably pitch for
Little Rock. A lively time is expected
around the Stag.

Keenan, Makes a Hit.

In the very next inning Jack Keenan,
walked up to the bat with an awful look
ing stick and whacked the first one over
for a clean single The spectators fell
back dumfounded. As Jack trotted down
to first even old Mount Stag trembled,
and was on the verge of eruption. The
fans soon recovered and found that it
was not a dream, but the fact stood
eminent that Jack had simply laid up
against the ball and snatched off a clean
line drive.
Duffy advanced him on sacrifice. and
O Brien followed with a terrific drive to
left, which Mccain nabbed In the nick
of time. On the throw-in three infelders
let the ball get through them, and Jack
went to third. He could have scored, but
Lynch is charged with blocking him on
third This made Lynch, who is playing
in Delehantys place, very unpopular
with the bleachers, and they went after
him hammer and tongs
1t all turned out for the best, however,
for Father Vaughan picked out nice
clean one and dropped it over short,
scoring keenan,. Brown grounded out
and the preliminary show was over.

Keenan, Had the Goods.

Never in his life did Jack Keenan, pitch
better ball and but for the bases on balls
early in the game his exhibition would
have been almost as good as the famous
slaughter of Nashville. Hereafter the
day on which Jack wiped Nashville from
the face of the map will be celebrated as
a national holiday and two games will al
ways be played on that occasion
The first counter came yesterday when
Lynch took long green bat and slapped
one of Keenan's best fioaters under the
score board in deep center for two bags.
Duffys fast fielding and good throw
alone kept the pro tenn third baseman
from landing on third. Mccain followed
with a bunt to keenan,, which Jack slung
to Vaughan, allowing Lynch TO take
third. Wright whipped a grounder into
LAWYERS hands, but in attempting to
make a quick play Eddie lost control
of the ball for a moment and then had
to throw II to first to catch big Pat
Lynch in the meantime dashed in with
the first. last and only run tor the would
be champions.

Another scalp is dangling from the Stag
Pile this morning and this time the bloody
momento was snatched from the tenacious
old skull of the Arkansas Traveller. Micque
Finn came into town with eolors flying
and a few hours later was seen skulking
out of West End with all his proud rib
bons bedraggled with the slime of Gin
der creek.
Jack Keenan, again had the proper
combination concealed In the folds Of his
blousy suit and one by one the Travellers
went down and out -Four stingy singles
were all that Finn and his gang could
manage to pinch off and one of these
was a scratch A half seconds bobble of
a grounder by Lawler allowed them to
make their only score and but for the sec
ond basemans intense anxiety not an
Arkansas foot would have spoiled the
plate.
The Iron Men went in to win and by rip
ping out a few choice singles at auspiei-
Gus moments sent three men around the
circuit and got off with the coin. These
proceedings on the part of the Stag Pile
dwellers were materially assisted by NAH
lings wild throw from short and when
Wright went bowling after the ball Jimmy
Brien fitted from bag to bag until he
had reached the bench and rung up an
other mark across the front of the score
board far away.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

The people of the United States
did not require demonstration of
the fact that their President is ell
tirely fearless, or that he proposes
to administer the affairs Of the gov
ernmeut with absolute justice, re-
gardless of his own political for
tunes; but they have received it in
the courageous position assumed
by the President with regard to the
employment Of union labor in the
various departments of the govern
ment. The case Of William Miller
an assistant foreman of the Gov
ernment Printing Office, called
forth from the President the enun-
citation of policy which for fifty
years no President has dared pro
claim. This is to the effect that
no discrimination shall be made
between union and non-union labor
in the employ of the government.
Mr.. Roosevelt cites the decision of
the Anthracite Coal Strike Com
mission in support of his decision,
the commission having decided
that men in the coal mines must
not be Disseminated against be-
cause they were not members of a
union,
Miller was dismissed by the Pub
lie Printer because he had been ex-
PEELED from the Bookbinder' S
Union. Miller's crime was an at
tempt to save money for the gov
ernment by insisting on the per
Torrance of more work than the
union permitted his subordinates
to do. 1t must be understood that
the Bookbinder's Union III Wash
ington prescribed a limit to the
amount of work which each man
shall perform in a day Finally
when Miller refused to yield to the
dictation of the union, he was ex-
PEELED from its membership aud
Immediately discharged by the
Public Printer for that reason, a
proceeding which Mr.. Roosevelt
characterizes as lacking in "ele-
menta1y decency." The President

Regular and Democratic newsPa-
pers,to slatethe men as they see the

reply to such waste of paper and
that is, that the Regulars have
plenty of trouble of their own with
out lending their very able assist

fcient in numbers to control Its

IN a recent editorial OF the "Ev-

and matchless grammarian(?) used
for heading, TOO Self Centered, "
and in part said the following
Unfortunately there are many
mediocre men who when raised to
a position which brings them tem-
porarily into the lime light, lose
all sense Of perspective and mag
inc the whole world has its gaze
centered on them"
In the above quoted lines the ed
itor seems to reveal one fact that
should not escape the notice of the
public, and that is this He has at
last, after years of struggle discov-
cred himself, and indirectly offers
an apology for the vanity that
wraps his manly form.
