INTEREST INCREASES AS
 DAY OF GAME APPROACHES
Experts Figure Out the Result and There Seems to be Great Difference of 0pinion-WhIe Tuscaloosa is Confident
 SeWanee Does Not Seem to be Quite So Jub|ant

A S the day of the Alabama A game approaches interest increases and the cranks who are figuring on the result in advance are quite busy. All kinds of records have been dug up, but the opinions, notwithstanding this, is very much at variance.
 While word comes from Tuscaloosa that the utmost confidence prevails in that city, Sewanee is not so jubilant
 Coach Whitney has not announced definite line up. He says he will not do so until the men are on the grounds. How ever, the following is a possible line up Monday:
 Watkins. center, TO pounds.
 Peterborough, right guard, 1So pounds.
 Harper left guard, 1s7 pounds.
 Brong, right tackle, 160 pounds.
 L. Kirby Smith, left tackle, 15S pounds.
 Jones, right end, 140 pounds.
 Shaffer, left end, 135 pounds.
 Wettlin, quarterback, 145 pounds.
 Sawrie, right half back, 155 pounds.
 Stewart, full back ITO pounds.
 Hull, left half back, 150 pounds.
 Besides these men some of the follow ing vii be sure to accompany the team as substitutes: Phillips, 1S0 pounds; Blount. 19O pounds: Crownover, 155 pounds and Wheeless 1S5 pounds for the line; Scarbor- ough, 125 pounds, quarterback; E. Kirby Smith, 150 pounds; Colmore. 15O pounds and Poynor 155 pounds for the back field.
 A telegram from Sewanee says that Coach Whitney is by no means enthusi- astic over the team. He said last night: q hardly expect the team will do all that it ought to do in the approaching games, but yet I think it will play credltable game in both contests. That is what hope. at least The great trouble is that the team has failed to round into form as yet and doesn't thoroughly understand it. self" The pracnees do look shaky from the sidelines, and the interference isn't al- ways strong, letting the scrub backs through to tackle for loss. Monday af- ternoon the scrubs punched an eighty yard hole through the 'Varsity's line but the Varsity took care that it was not re- peated.
 The team as above gwen averages 154 pounds and with a few substitutions, 105 (Mahon) ' to 1, second; Kiowa Chief, 100 (Foley) 10 to 1, third. Time, 1:02.
 Fourth race, six furlongs, handicap Glennevis, 97 (Foley) 15 to 1, won; Bridge, IA (Sheehan 10 to l. second; Brulare, 96 Gouden) 20 to 1, third. Time, 1:l4.

The Baptist Picnic.

The long looked for picnic of the Bap-
list Bible school was held Saturday
about 200 attending. Through the cour-
tesy of w. G. Doolittle the school had
the freedom OF his farm near Vernon
station, to which. on the arrival of the
lois train. they were escorted and where
they found tents. swings hammocks etc,
for their convenience. The occasion from
II o'clock until the time of return at 5
O'Clock was a constant delight. A ba sc
ball game held the attention until dinner
time. when all gathered around on the
grass and shared with their next neigh

was prepared by the veteran caterer.

occurred to mar the day although some
ludicrous things not down on the pro-

most enjoyable occasion of the kind the

Missouri's Corruption.
[springheid Republican.l


Mr. Folk whose instrumentality in eX-
posing the rottenness in Missouri has
gained for him national fame, gave an
interesting review of the reform work of
the past year or two in an address last
week before an old settlers association at
New Florence. 1t is not necessary TO follow
him through all the details of the wicked
work of the syndicate of public plumber
ers, belonging to both parties, who have
had Missouri i'm their power no one
knows how many years. He retold the
story of the combine in the st. Louis city
government-how one franchise was sold
for $25o,O0O, % of the Is members of the
municipal assembly taking at least $1,000
each, while seven received from $4,000
to $l7,5OO for their votes. One member of
the council held out for $4,000 then for
$4,000, and finally voted in the expecta-
ton of receiving 100000 Seven council
men at one time were secretly on salaries
OF $4,000 year to promote certain cor
porate interests. A lighting bill was
bribed through for Si75OO. These repre-
sentatives of the people conspired to sell
out the municipal water works worth
S4O,O0OO00, for $4,000, 600, in order to make
100000 apiece in rake-off Even the old
court house and the municipal market
We're almost sold in order to enrich the
city legislators, and the market was saved
only by a counter corruption fund of 500
COO which the marketmen raised in order
to satisfy the greed of these miscreants
in power. Mr., Folk, having retold the
story, was able to say: Now some of
these representatives are fugitiYes from
justice in foreign countries; others have
turned states evidence; the remainder
have faced juries, and Is of these givers
and takers of bribes have received sem
terces ranging from two years to seven
years in the penitentiary."

England No Lonqer Isolated.

Germany at one time hoped to isolate
England so completely in Europe that
she would be forced to make an alliance
by which Germany would obtain the
greatest advantage, but today France
and Italy are drawing closer together.
and England's ally, if she needs to seek
one, is likely to be France and not Ger
many. During the Boer war England
was sneered at as without a friend in
Europe, but today England is on cordial
terms with France and Italy, and Ger
many is become the lone fisherman in the
pool of European politics who tolls day
and night and catches nothing, The
knowledge that she had again become a
potential factor in the worlds politics
was declared by England when she
served notice in May last on Germany
and Russia that any attempt to estah-
fish naval base of fortified port in the
Persian gulf would be resisted by war.
