The game at West End park will be called promptly at 415 and 1t Is officially announced that the Iron Men are still wearing that winning streak.
 Newt Fisher and his bunch of would be top liners will play Birmingham here this afternoon.
 It is probable that Russell will be in the box for Nashville and that Frank Smith or Clark will pitch for Birming- ham.
 The last time Nashville was here the two teams played what was considered the prettiest series of the year. Each team took game by a close score and the third was tied. It was then that Keenan pitched his wonderful game, all lowing no hits and no runs.
 The two teams are considered the best matched in the league, and three pret- ty exhibitions are expected

Every tourist who contemplates visit
to Spain will rejoice that the govern

measure for the repression of vagrancy
and begging. which are practiced on a
large scale all over the peninsula, and
are particularly INDUCED in by young
children. The bill has been prepared
by the social reform committee of
Madrid, although it was actually draft
ed by Senator Santa Maria de Parebes.

York Times.
In no other Latin country is the guild
of beggars so we'll organized. The Span
fish beggar is not usually a thief or
rather overt thieving is discouraged by
his profession Spanish sociologists
trace the origin of the present-day beg
gar to the time of barefooted pilgrim
ages and hair-shirt discipline. 1t is af
firmed that the whole class of quite Or
derby men and women who crouch at
the church doors and piously bless the
donors of copper coins are in many
cases the lineal descendants of pilgrims
who used to do penance for those who
were charitably disposed toward them.
There is no doubt that even to-day the
Madrid beggar. who is called in Castilian
"pordiosero," is a very pious person;

And the hum of wheels and the din
of the workshops increased. New
plants were started here and there;
factories sprang up like mushrooms in
a night Pennsylvania and Ohio kept
the centers of these activities during
all the years as they rolled by because
of their coal mines, and gas and oil
wells And in 1894 Uncle Sam, as he
passed his score sheet over to his
doughty friend, John Bull, winked and
said; ''$9,498,0O0,0O0 amt so bad"
And Johnny's hand shook as he took
the paper, and his voice trembled so
that Uncle Sam could scarcely under
stand the totals which Johnny gave of
81 1863 100000 And France had taken
! a back seat, surely, and was almost
ashamed to come forward with only
$780, 900 to her credit, while Cer-
many, who had passed France in the
race, and had crept up on England,
didn't make much of showing by the
side of Uncle Sans figures, for she
could only claim $3,357 100000 as the
total of her manufactures
The growth of manufactures in the
United States has occurred chiefly in
the last 20 years Stated in round
! terms, the census figures of the gross
value of manufactures in the United
States are: For 1850, 81 900, 000, 900;

1900, $13, OOO,O 100000, the increase in the
20 years from 1880 to 1900 being much
greater than that of the century pre-
ceding $780,
With this rapid increase in the pro-
ductiOn OF manufactures in the United
States a production far in excess of
home requirements, has come desire
to seek markets in other parts of the
world for the surplus product of the
manufacturing industries. This desire
has already manifeted itself in rapid
increase in the expectation of manu-
features. The total value of manu-
features exported from the United
States has grown from a little over
81 100000 in 1890 to $1,000, 900 in 1850,
$40,000.0G0 in 1860. SOS, 000, 900 in 1870,
$102 100000 in 1880, $151 100000 in
1890, and $433, 200, 900 in 1900. since
which time the annual total has not
fallen below the four hundred million
dollar line That this increase has
been specially marked in the last de-
cade is shown by the fact that the
growth by decades in exports of manu-
features has been as follows: During
the decade ending with 1900. $1,125.-
900: 1910. S1,250,000; 1880. $4,000, 900;
1910, s4.5OO.OOo; 1850. 100000; 1860.
So, 900 900; 1870, $29. 900 900; $780, $34,-
900 900; 1890. $49.00O,OOO. and during
the decade ending with 1900 over $685.

manufactures in the decade following

century preceding that year.

tasty turned towards the setting sun.
In 1920 they stopped amidst fair Vir-
ginia's fertile fields, but as the hardy
pioneers steadily blazed their way to
the westward, Uncle Sam and Columbia
in 1880 found themselves in West Vir-
ginia. 1t took them 40 years to cross
the state and get into Ohio, where they
stayed 20 years, when Indiana gave
them welcome and there they may still
be found, with the great family around
them and they exactly in the center.
Uncle Sam has always been a good
farmer. but 1t was not until 1850 that
he began to keep account of his crops.
Then he found if he went down into
Ohio near the Ohio river he would be
exactly in the center of his cultivated
fields, his bearing orchards and his
stock-filled meadows. He had to shift
his position in 1860 to the western
part of the state and then in 1870 he
took trip to the south. In 1880, still
further attracted by the awakened
agricultural activity in his southern
fields he stepped over into Kentucky.
where he made stay of ten years
when, travelling in westerly direc-
ton, but still dipping southwark. he
reached southern Indiana, and at the
present time he may be found in I'LL

granaries and barns on every hand full
and enough to spare for his neighbors
across the waters.
But it is not Uncle Sam. the family
man. or Uncle Sam, the farmer, whom
we are specially interested in at the
present time, but Uncle Sam. the
busting, rushing, wealthy manufac-
turer. The hum of factory wheels has
always had a peculiar fascination for
him. Years ago, in 1850, when the
center of manufactures of the United
States was to the northwest of Har-
risburg in Pennsylvania, he was just
a little fellow in the manufacturing
world, and his neighbors in England
France and Germany didn't take much
notice of him. But Uncle Sam just
kept busy in his workshops and mills
and factories. He was too busy tc
talk. but when his clerks in 1860 got

CAPE COD MONUMENT.
To BE Erected at PrOVincetovyn,
Where the Pilgrim Fathers Made
Their First Landing.

There is a persistent effort being
made in New York and other cities by
the Cape Cod Pilgrim Memorial associa-
ton to raise a fitting monument at
Provincetown to the Mayflower pill
grims
A fact not known or probably recog-
nized by many people is that the pilgrim
fathers first landed at Provincetown,
and not at Plymouth. There they stayea
for 80 days or more and made the cele-
brated compact in the cabin of the May
flower.
All history has been said to be large
~ fiction at best But we ought to be
able at least to teach our children the
truth about history that is so near to
us, says the Boston Globe. There is
nothing to be gained by teaching false
histOr,- in the schools.
The Cape Cod Pilgrim Memorial as
ISOLATION proposes TO erect monument
upon the highest point in Provincetown
to commemorate the first landing of the
pilgrim fathers upon Cape Cod soil and
the adoption by them of the immortal
compact of civil government in the
cabin of the Mayf1ower That compact
was the forerunner of the declaration
of independence. 1t is hoped to make
the monument a beacon which, with
the hill upon which it stands, will be
from $50 to 900 feet high, and will serve
as a landmark not only by night, but by
day as we'll. On clear day it ought to
| be visible at a distance of about 80 miles,
| it is said
1t is the ladies that are doing most
to fix the true landmarks of our colonial
and revolutionary history. They want
their children to know the whole truth
and nothing but the truth
Among the donors to the Cape Cod
monument is Mrs. Russell Sage, who
gave 500. 1t will cost many thousands.
