| no harm. that they would have their fun. and when started had no respect for age or rank, and that the better way was to go right along and pay no attention to them. He did so, but evidently not with very good grace.
 In short while the party left the Ridge, turned to the left into some woods and very soon came upon what seemed to be a wagon camp, but which was at the time occupied " a command that had just come out of the picket trenches and were there to rest, wash and clean up.
 These men also began to guy the doctor going on pretty much the same as those who had been passed in the trenches. The doctor, as soon as they began, promptly refined in his horse and turning to the writer, said: Captain, don't mind for those men who stay in the trenches, car ry muskets and do the fighting to have as much fun out of me as they wish,' but with an expression more emphatic than pious, he added, "I'll not submit to 1t from a lot of - wagon drivers [" Whereupon he prepared to dismount with the evident purpose of defying and fight ing the entire crowd.
 The situation was explained to him. He was at first little slow to accept the explanation, but when satisfied of It's cor rectness he rode on, reiterlng, however, his purpose not to submit to any such treatment from wagon drivers. In diplo- matic phrase this ceased the incident
 It has often occurred to the writer that the plucky doctor in his readiness and willingness to fight several hundred of what he supposed were wagon-drivers, was a striking representative of the pluck of the South in the great war, and of It's chances for success. Any disinterested person, looking on as soon as 1t was a settled thing, that the North was united. and determined to resist secession. could have seen that the South stood no chance of ultimate success. Without an army. without a navy, with no arms and no munitions of war and with the crude ma. terials out of which these things could be

Tobacco Used in Prisons Docs Net Pay a Government Revenue Tax.

Convicts serving terms in the various prisons of the country have one. privilege people outside the walls do not sn1oy. The commissioner of internal revenue has decided that 1t is permissible for Stats prisons to manufacture tobacco or cigars for its own inmates without paying h. cense. The commissioner says:
 "I would say that upon careful consids eration of the question involved, it is held that a charitable or other institution con ducted by the State and under Sate ati- thority, with It's own operatives. has the right to manufacture tobacco. cigarR. or any other tobacco product without Ssc payment of tax when all such manufac- tured tobacco is used exclusively within the State institution.
 "The tobacco must, however. be manL- factured within the limits of the State institution. and no portion of 1t be re- moved therefrom. If any portion of such tobacco is found outside of the limits of the institution. 1t will be liable to seizure and forfeiture the same as any other unstamped manufactured to- bacco which might be found upon the market"

While it was the irony of fate that in the last game of the 1904 season played in Montgomery the Pretzels should be shout out yesterday. still 1t such brilliancy on both sides should be played.
 Jack Lee pitched far better ball than Abel. only five hits being made off him while he only gave one base on balls and struck out seven batters.
 It is questionable If Molesworth was not safe when he made a dash for the plate. The ball was shot back to Graf hus about that time and the decision was a close one. Wood was right in the play, however. and he could see better than the spectators.
 The feature was Delehanty's batting. He crashed out two-baggers three times out of four times up. The most brilliant game put up was by Kid Busch who had one putout and nine assists, his throwing being rapid and accurate and the best that he has ever done in Montgomery.
 The entire Pretzel team played grand baseball and left a splendid impression on the minds of the local fans.
 The only run of the game was in the fifth inning. Schwaub hit one towards Schwartz that gave one of those dirty, mean false bounds. shoot out of his reach. Kid Busch fortunate ly was backing up the play and | managed to stop the sneaking hit, though too late 10 catch the runner at | first. Then Schwaub made a dash for second, Clark letting one of Lees swirt ones get away from him. He was worked around to third on Donovan's infield hit and scored on Heneger's drive.
 Last night the Pretzels left for New Orleans where they will play today, Friday, Saturday and Sunday the last game closing the season. Shreveport leaves this morning for Atlanta where the will play four games, ending the season in Powelltown.
 New Orleans and Memphis are virtu- ally tied for second place with Atlanta only seven points behind, and the next few days will tell the story.

Interesting Phases of Very Serious Prob
 lem.

Letter in the London Standard.
 Paris.-Although the official results of the General Census taken In 1901 have not yet been published, NJ. Lavasseur of the Institute and Director of the College of France has had the outlines communicated to him, and has drawn up interesting statement concerning the general results
 In 1901 the total number of the inhabi- tants of France was 3s.s61.946; in 1898 the figures were 3s.5l7,3S2. But although an increase of 444,sl3 souls is thus shown. M. Lavasseur is careful to point out that this is probably ficticious the returns of the births and deaths for the period showing that the excess of births over deaths mad been only 22O.o42 souls Compared with a previous census when the deaths ceeded the births, the results of the 1901 census are more satisfactory, although, when the figures were placed against those of any other European nation, it is at once apparent that the birth rate in France is far below the general average. ana that all other nations are increasing more rap idly, NJ Lavasseur remarks that at the com mencement of the nineteenth century the decrease in population was confined 10 cer tain regions in Normandy, the valley of the Garonne, and the mountainous GIstrfcts of Central France Not only have these cen tres increased in extent, but new ones have sprung up notably in the Ain and Cham pagne districts.
 Of ninety-six departments and one mili- tary territory. that of Belfort there are only nineteen departments in which the population tends to increase. These nine teen departments all adjacent to the Seine Province. which includes the capital; they possess a large town or are close 10 the frontier. and receive large for eign influx. The increase in the popula- a- ton is confined to the towns only France possesses thirty y-eeyen cities with over hO.- OnO inhabitants. and since 1S9e the popula- tion has increased In thirty-one of them. It is the same in the smaller towns, but in the country districts the old aversion 70 large families not only prevails but would seem to be increasing.
