A great crowd welcomed the Montgom- cry team home yesterday afternoon and saw Alb Powelrs Crackers bite the dust
 by the close score of s to {.
 Some wise man has told us that miss
 is as good as mile. and from the stren-
 uous experiences of yesterdays ball game
 sage spoke not only wisely but well. Just as the sun went down Heck Bur

 long fiy and local hearts were filled with By the merest scratch Montgomery

 and Wilkie Clark was all that swung the lodestar of victory to the Black Sox.'
 With the score tied up twice and every
 body doing fierce guessing stunts. the game was the one of the most intensely
 exciting and thoroughly enjoyable ever played on the local diamond.
 The crowd was an enormous one. the grandstand being kaleidescopic in its beauty and fragrance, the ceaseless way
 ing of thousands of fans, shrieks of de-
 light and waving of dainty handkerchiefs, | lending that charm to the scene that Is | only present on Ladies' Day.
 At the last minute Ab Powell decided | to change his plans. and instead of put ting Frank wilson in yesterday and Jack | Ely in today. he reversed 1t, Jack going on the firing line yesterday and Frank l today. Whistler adhered to his original program and put In Louis Polchow, and
 well did the speedy pitcher come up to
 expectations. While the hits were even,
 Polchow pitched on the whole a better game than Ely. Atlanta earned only one of it's four runs, while the Black Sox earned three of their five runs.
 Wilkie Clark did the most of the work | in the first half of the first inning and his brilliant throwing to second was the feature. Dick Crozier. the first man up. walked. but committed the fatal error of l attempting to square a circle. He started to steal second but Clark fired the ball | like a rife shot and Richard with a sadder but wiser mien ambled slowly back

TALKS OF CANAL TREATY.
Pedro velez Says the Debate VII Be
 Protracted.

ErOLracpSO.
 New York, Aug. 4.-Pedro Velez, a member of the Colombian Congress and one of the house committee when has charge of the Panama canal treaty, sailed for Colon today, after a stay of several weeks in this city and Washington. Af- ter visiting his home in Cartagena, he will go to Bogota to take part in the ca nal debate.
 During his stay, Velez has carefully studied sentiment relative to the canal, and will use as a guide in the delibera- tions of Congress the information he has gathered.
 Regardless of the great advantage of the Panama route, he says those who fla vor 1t over the Nicaragua water way are greatly in the minority.
 VeleZ does not expect an early vote be- cause of protracted debate and numerous amendments which will be offered. T cannot tell how l will vote" said he, but if I were to judge according to impress sions received here from a generality of the press, my decision would be decidedly against the treaty.
 'lf this present treaty negotiation with the United States Government should come to a stand still, I fear our Govern ment and people will not in any case try { bargain on or sacrifice the French people, with whom our relations always have been cordial"

WONDERFUL SHAMROCK III.
Again She Easily Outfits Her Old
 Companion.

Atlantic Highlands. N. J.. Aug. 4.- Captain Wringe. of Shamrock III, and Captain Bevis of Shamrock l., got into hot contest in todays race for the two boats off Scotland Eightship and the masterly fashion in which the clever shippers handled the big racers delighted Sir Thomas Lipton and Captain Mckins- ley of the Teutontc, and Captain Bertram F. Hayes of the Arabia his guests, as well as the Erin's company.
 Captain Wringe. who has yet to dis credit Sir Thomas's word that he Is the best of Great Britain's shippers at get ting a coveted position at the start sent the challenger over the line with tho old boat under her lee for a ten mile heat to windward, and a run home in a rattling twenty-two knot breeze from the southwest. Captain Bevis fretted for fif- teen minutes, while his craft was blank eted by the fleeter footed challenger. Seven tacks the two boats made in three minutes, each time Shamrock III. holding the old boat under her lee. At the sev- enth Captain Bevis got headway on his boat while the challenger was falling away and Shamrock I. slipped through the challenger's lee and got her wind clear. but she had not the heels to hold 1t.
 Running home in such a breeze. the old boat ought to be at her best, but the cup hunter added almost five minutes to her victory, an astonishing performance.

GIRLS BODY FOUND.
Rancher is Believed to Have Murder

Butte. Mont. Aug. A special to The Miner from Anatone. Wash. says: Lying in a pool of her own blood. her clothing torn and disarranged, her brain exposed by terrible wound in the head, the little body of Mabel Richards was found yesterday afternoon in the woods on Montgomery Ridge three miles from here. Suspicion points to Philip Hamil- ton, a rancher. who lives alone on the banks under arrest and refuses to talk beyond a simple denial of guilt. The girl had been outraged. She was 8 years of age. Lynch talk is heard on all sides.

MEXICAN BOIL wEEv1L.
The Cotton scourge Appears in New
 Orleans.

New Orleans, Aug. 1.-The Mexican boil weevil has made it's appearance at the experimental station near Audubon Park. where two acres are under cotton.
 For several days brokers who have been watching the growth of the cotton have had suspicious that it was infested with the weevil in spite of opinions to the contrary from several authorities. The habits and char acterlstics of the weevil were studied up and the aid of pr. J. Grayvile was secured.
 He examined many plants and secured many embryo insects which he developed This morning on the floor of the Cotton Exchange he exhibited a bottle full of insects that everyone unhesitatlngly pro- nounced the real Mexican weevil, that has proved to be such a scourge in portions of Te: as.
 It is believed the weevil was brought to the city in the seed used in planting the tract at the experimental station.
