Mrs. John R. Ryan, wife of the gen. eral manager of the Corona Coal and Iron company. died of typhoid fever at the family residence in Patton yesterday at o'clock.

 Mrs. Ryan was born in Albemarle coun- ty, Va. She was the daughter Of the late Isaac ,Barksdale who was prominent as the treasurer of the commonwealth of Virginia. She leaves one child, a daugh- ter fl years of age.

ALABAMA PLAYS
 TENN. THURSDAY
DAY GAME WILL END FOOTBALL SEASON IN BIR- MANY SUPPORTERS.

With the annual game between the University of Alabama and the Universi- ty of Tennessee on Thanksgiving day. the football season will end In Birming- ham. On the following day, however, there will be a game between the negro teams from the Roger Williams college at Nashville and the Talladega Normal school for negroes. This latter game promises to be interesting as well as unique.
 The Crimson and White expects to wave triumphantly at West End Thurs day. but the Yellow and White of Ten nessee will give the Tuscaloosa men a hard fight. Naturally Alabama will have q majority of supporters at the game as hundreds of the alumni from the University of Alabama reside in Birmingham.
 So far, Alabama has not won a game at Birmingham this season and they will work harder than >ver to come off victorious. They were first defeated by Clemson by a score of IS to at West End, and later by Auburn by a score O. % to 6 two weeks ago.
 The only two games lost by Alabama were lost at Birmingham all of her other contests having resulted in victory. Not withstanding the near approach of the end of the season the Varsity men have not let up on their training and 1t Is very probable that Tennessee will face the strongest line she has tackled this season. Alabama Is getting all the prac- tice necessary to put the men In condi- ton for hard work at the beginning of next season as many of the old men will be retained and strong team will start the season next year.
 The game at West End Thursday will probably begin at 2:30 o'clock.

Rome. November 20.-Bishop chatard of the diocese of Indianapolis, was received in private audience by Pope Plus x to- day.

"Herrmann the Great is the most ex- pert eonjurer the world has ever known. His sleight of hand, or palming, borders on the marvellous. For his engagement at the Jefferson theatre tomorrow night an entirely new and novel programme of magic and mystery has been arranged. Magic never before seen In this city, and so marvellous and grand that only he, the master Hermann" himself, would att tempt. Several sensational illusions are also on the programme, which are inex- plainable.
 Every year Hermann has the assist ance of at least one big vaudeville act. This year the feature of the show out side of Hermann Is the Five Normans, who are known as the worlds greatest club jugglers.

DR. RIDDICK ON
 UNJUST STEWARD
SAYS MANY PEOPLE READ THE BIBLE AS IF THEY WERE DOING PENANG INSTEAD OF GETTING RESULTS.

The Rev. Dr. c. B. Riddck occupied the pulpit at the First Methodist church yesterday. explaining the familiar par able of the unjust steward. He took as commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely; for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light"
 Dr. Riddick spoke, in part, as follows:
 This Is a passage much discussed, since many cannot understand why the unjust servant should be commended and held up to us for imitation. Many me- ehanical readers of the Bible, people who read certain number of chapters every day. as though they were doing penance, instead of reading for the real meaning. often misunderstood the sim plest verses. Imperfect men must be in- troduced to illustrate great truths The steward did not inappropriate any of his masters funds; he was simply providing for his future comfort by pleasing the tenants. His landlord commended him for his sagacity and foresight.
 Some foolish persons go through this world believing that if they prosper now the future will take care of itself. This is a terrible sin. They neglect church duties, devoting their entire time to world ly pursuits. They heap up riches, prob ably to be squandered after their death by an extravagant son, but at any rate 1t can do them no good, while the good who provide for the future by accepting Christ enter Into the kingdom of heaven and have eternal life"

TALK
 AT '. M. [. 4. ROOMS
|. Galloway Pratt Makes Inter
 esting Address
THEME WAS FELLOWSHIP
Large Number of Men Present and All Entered Heartily Into the the cervlce--Short Bible
 Reading at Beginning.

The Young Mems Christian Association Sunday club opened It's meeting yester- day afternoon with spirited song and prayer service. led by Assistant Secretary J. l.. Bridges and MT. Walter Maxim.
 A goodly number of men were present, and all entered heartily Into the service. There was a short Bible reading before the regular address, in which the whole audience joined L. Galloway Pratt made the principal address of the afternoon taking as his subject, Good Fellowship The scriptural basis of the speakers re- marks was, If we walk in the light as He is in the light we have fellowship one with another"
 MT. Pratt's Talk.
 MT. Pratt said in part:
 Nineteen hundred years ago man appeared on earth-if 1t be lawful to call Him a man-as Josephus writes, who pro- mulgated a doctrine which taught that you shall love your neighbor as yourself
 "No other phianthropist In the whole stretch of history can compare to the Man of Gallalee. What did this Man do? He went about doing good and the sole purpose of His life was that no man should be banlshed from God Christ sealed Ills great love for men by Ills death on the cross
 Docs becoming Christian mean that one Is to become yielding or effeminate7 Not by any means. The tenderest are the bravest. An example of man in the | speakers acquaintance was cited. This man grew Into middle life without accept ing Christ and was wicked man, self centered and self-willed. After he became Christian he had the courage to square 1 ly turn his back on his old life; and a convincing proof of this Is that this man resigned a very important and paying po- sition because he was unwilling to carry out the questionable business methods which his company required.
 Met With Discouragement.
 "The speaker said that when he en- tered college he met with many dis couragements, but that the encouraging words of a manly fellow-student had remained with him and had often helped him to overcome obstacles. It Is moi the first honor's won, the greatest ath l IeIe or the D1e WllH lHc AioSl AhOhSJs DN the man with heart as big as the ne cessities of humanity, who can be tn most helpful declared this man. Gu reading today gives emphasis to the fac that we must have fellowship one wit another. It is one thing l like abou the Y. M c. A.. in this city and every where. 1t Is established, that the righ hand of fellowship Is always extended MT. Bridges followed up the line thought suggested in the regular ad dress and invited those who had no to enter Into Christian fellowship.
 Fourteen men stood for prayer ant eight of this number made definit surrender to Christ at the inquirers meeting held by Secretary Jackson. Th usual good fellowship meeting was helt and L. 0. Gillespy. the physical direc tor. addressed those present on Gym nastics."
