COAL BARONS PLAY MACON TOMORROW Team Returns from Trip to Cotton States League. LOST A GAME AT MONROE Most Sensational Incident of the Trip Was Home Run By Sis Hopkins.
 Birmingham Players Are
 Hitting Ball Hard.
-0ST A GAME AT MONROE

The Coal Barons arrived from their Cotton States league jaunt yesterday morning at o'clock feeling in the best of spirits though they had to stand for considerable guying on account of losing a game to Monroe, La.
 In the game at Monroe, Gordon Hick- man. Birmingham lad, pitched against Birmingham and did some excellent work. Members of the Slagtown team say he has the promise of making a great pitcher. For youngster, Johnny Duffy and Tam sett say he is the test they have seen on watching bases. He also has great speed and plenty of curves.
 George Leidy, manager of the Monroe team was tickled to death over the de- feat of his former team mates and told them that he would put pitcher in the next day whom they couldn't touch. The pitcher was put in and Birmingham pounded him all over lot. Leidy after the game said that he had put this pitch CT in just to give Birmingham d chance to win.
 Tomorrow afternoon the Coal Barons will meet the team from Macon in the South Atlantic league and some great
 
 touted as a pennant winner in the new organization. The records of the men were printed several days ago. Atlanta beat them two games and it is now up to Birmingham to see what can be done with these youngsters. The Barons are mak- ing wonderful record with the bat hav- ing scored 6 runs in five games.
 1t is said that the most remarkable feature of the recent trip was a home run by Sis Hopkins at Monroe. He crack ed the ball square on the nose and hit the center fielder on the foot knocking him down. The fielder was so dazed he couldn't throw the ball In until after Sis had scored.
 The team was out practicing yesterday afternoon and will do some more work this afternoon. After the Macon games Friday and Saturday no more preliminary games will be played. The season opens one week from today with Nashville.

AUBURN FEELING
 FULL OF GINGER
BASEBALL TEAM ARRIVES IN BIR- MlNGHAM EN ROUTE TO TUSCA- LoosA, WHERE THEY PLAY TO. DAY-vAUGHAN IN CHARGE.

The Auburn baseball team, in charge of Coach Harry Vaughan, arrived in Br- mingham last night en route to Tusca- loosa, where they play the University team this afternoon. Great interest cen ters in these games among the colleges and Auburn is determined to win or give the Varsity the worst scare they ever received.
 Harry Vaughan says his men are in fine condition and will be able to make a good showing. He and every man on the team appear absolutely confident of winning and this counts for much in baseball
 The Auburn team played two games and broke even. This Is the first time In years that Auburn has defeated the Mercer team and there was a great cele- bration at Auburn on the night of the victory.
 Weems, Auburns star twirler, has broken all records for a college pitcher this summer. In three games he has only allowed three hits, which is the best showing ever made by a southern college pitcher.
 Harry Vaughans broken hand Is mend ing rapidly, though 1t is still in splints. He will return to Birmingham Saturday night and will probably be able to get in the game before the opening of the sea- son.

"A Low Standard.

1t Is not an agreeable task to speak
evil OF the dead, and when a citizen of
prominence dies chivalrous men are dis
posed to let the evil which he has done
be Inferred with his homes and to speak
only Of that which was good in his life.
Public men and newspapers have IN the
main thus dealt with the late Matthew
Stanley Quay. of PENNSYLVANIA. Some
have paid hig tributes to him, and even
the President of4the United States in his
message OF condolence referred to Mr..
Quay as my stanch and loyal friend"

be their duty to tear away this mantle

Northern Righteousness.

President Roosevelt In his address at

butte to the courage and gallantry and

he did not concede to the Confederate
cause the full measure of merit that the

glory to the Union cause that the facts
do not warrant.
He said that the Civil War was a.
great war for righteousness a war
waged for the noblest ideals. Some
wars" he proceeded, "have meant the
triumph of order over anarchy and

some wars have meant the triumph OF
liberty over tyranny masquerading as
order; but this victorious war of ours
meant the triumph Of both liberty and
