Capt. D. H. Smith of Company l. of Oxford claims credit for having the largest company of the Third during the encampment. He has had an average Of about fifty men during the entire week and a full corps of commissioned officers
 Up to yesterday Company D of the Third infantry furnished seven of the ten or derlies furnished from the Third for bri- gade and regimental headquarters. The orderies are selected from the guard each morning for neatness and soldierly bear ing.
 In the prize drill for the Tanner medal when the squad had been drilled down to nine men, four of the number were from the Calhoun Rifles of Oxford Captain Smith of the company says that if he did not have the best drilled man he had the best drilled four and is justly proud of the showing.
 Hon. l. W. Hill, state superintendent of education, was with some of his old friends among the officers of the Third yesterday.
 Major J. L.. Daniel, commanding the Sec ond battalion of the Third is always spoken of as fine commanding officer. He is from Anniston, and is senior major of the regiment.

About 300 people, includ- ing many soldiers of the Second, witness ed the drill and the presentation.
 The Jefferson Volunteers walked away with the prizes in the competitive drill for the Tanner medal yesterday afternoon.

Manager Vaughan and Bobby Gilks got together yesterday, and as the result two new faces will be seen on the Shreveport team today, and one new player will be wearing the costume of the Coal Barons.
 Henneger and Ianley, second baseman and outlelder, respectively, were swap ped for Hennessy, the fast center field CT of the Pirates. Daddy Vaughan thinks that he got decidedly the best of the bargain, and believes that he will mater ially strengthen the batting of the team.
 Lynch will be brought in from left field and placed at second base to succeed Henneger, and Hennessy will go into right field. Billy Smith will go to left field, and Duffy will remain in center. This gives three of the fastest fielders in the South ern league in the outskirts for Birming- ham. and all three of them are hitters above the average.
 The batting strength is also increased by having Lynch in the infield in Henne- gers place. as the former will bat al- most BOO. Another reason for the swap was that Birmingham had seventeen men on the pay rolls and that was too many. It left one or two men on the bench all the time, and they were not needed
 The game this afternoon will be called at o'clock, and Clark will probably pitch against Stewart. Ginger seems confident of winning his game this afternooS, and says he Is in better condition than he has been this year.

On account of a decision made by Umpire Pfenninger in the first half of the ninth inning, in the second game, when French forced in run, nearly 1000 persons surged on the field and few tried to get at the umpire, but he was taken to place of safety without in- jury.

 The headquarters of the First brigade. Alabama National Guard will be moved this morning to room 101 in the Title Guarantee and Trust company building, where all of the business of the brigade will be transacted for the next few days until 1t is wound up
 Major Scott, quartermaster of the regi- ment, requests that all bihs against the National Guard be presented at headquar- ters today, when they will be passed on and paid tomorrow
 In summing up the camp there is no one who deserves more credit for the ex- eellence of the encampment than Major Scott, Hthe hardest worked man in 2500," Is he has been termed He had charge of making all the brigade contracts ar ranging the transportation and a thou sand and one other things which no one knows about. With all that he was ever ready to assist any on~ else in their work or to give information to all who desired it.
 He is one of the oldest soldiers in the Alabama National Guard, and at the same time one of the best and most congenial He says he Is getting most too many years on his shoulders to do the active work Of quartermaster of the brigade. and that this is probably his last en- campment as active quartermaster He however, expects to attend all of them and assist in doing the work

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Pittsburg Post (Dem) says:
THE American trusts at this time seem
to enjoy respite from official worri-
ment, as II has been discovered the
trusts have great uses In maintaining
the campaign chest Of the Republican
party. They are a necessity, in fact"
The Galveston Daily News (Dem)
says: zone of the most important is
sues in this campaign grows out of the
open Misrepresentation of public money
by the Republican party. There has
never been anything like 1t before. II
means costly public service; but that
Is not all. Ii means corrupt public
service Even that Is not all II means
that grave danger which never fails TO
come OF the misuse of large sums OF
public money by candidates seeking
campaign or party benefits"
The Philadelphia Record Dem.)
says: From this time forward the
Roosevelt grand stand demonstration
against the Trust must be taken for
what Il really has becn-a mere feint.

Tod Sloan had been halted in Con-
necticut by the Bridgeport police for
speeding his forty horsepower French
automobile at a rate illegally high,
says the Baltimore Herd. The young
man explained that he was trying
to break the record between New York
and Boston and he paid his fine good
humoredly from a roll of bills so thick
that he could hardly get it out of his
pocket
A constable advised Mr.. Sloan against
racing. He pointed out the inevitable
danger of every kind of high speed
contests.
You, I perceive" said the young
man, believe only in the kind of rae
ing that my friend Peter Sandys won
a small bet by.
Peter had been a jockey. but fat
and old age had put him out of bust
ness. He was only five feet tall,
but he weighed $50 pounds and he
was 6S Years old. Naturally, he
wasn't taken for a Splinter any
where.
Nevertheless, he offered to race me
one day.
I'LL race and beat YOU he said,
if you'll give me a yards start, for
So.
" III take that bet said I. Where
sRall we racer

TIL Better Times.

The Rev. Lewis Cameron, rector of
the Church of the Holy Communion
in South Orange, recently told this
story at a gathering of Protestant
Episcopal clergymen illustrative of the
popular desire to belong to an infiuen-
tial church, says the New York Times.
Pat was a Roman Catholic out of
work ana with no money. So far as
he could see there was nothing in the
future to give him encouragement.
One day he met member of the Bap-
fist Church, who said to him:
My friend, why don't you join
our congregation? You can get a job
in that way and a good one, too"
How can l do that?' asked Pat.
I'm a Catholic
" oh, that don't matter replied the
other. You can join all right. Just
come over to the church next Sunday
Pat scratched his head meditatively.
That night he lay awake thinking of
the problem, and during the following
three days he tried to choose between
being a poor Catholic and a Baptist
with a good job The next day was
Sunday, and, without saying a word
to any one, he walked around to his
his conscience seemed to rebel and he
stood for some time outside wondering
whether he had better go in.
Finally he entered the vestibule.
There was nobody in sight. Reverently
removing his hat and turning his eyes
heavenward, he said:
Lord God Almighty, 1 hate to do
this, but I'm up ag'in it. Goodbye till
times is betteF!'"

ERSONAL.

Robert Womack, the discoverer of
Cripple Creek and the gold deposits
there, which have yielded others more
than $150,000, 900, is believed to be dy-
ing at Colorado Springs in q sanitarium
He did not benefit by his discovery
and for several years has been
a street laborer in Colorado Springs.
Justin McCarthy's long and varied
career has given him a seemingly in
exhaustible store of Renaissance. He
has dropped awhile work on his His
tory of Our Own Times which has
progressed as far as the sixth volume,
in order to write out another volume of
his recollections, which will be publish
ed in the fall. Few living writer's
have come in contact with so many
notable public men, and Mr.. Mccarthy
has the gift of putting his reminiscent
ces in an entertaining form.
The release from prison of Mrs.
Maybrick recalls a story told on the
authority of E. S. Willard. the Eng
lish actor. According to the story
there was a sensational play in re-
hearsal at one of the London theaters
early in the SOS. The plot of the play
was in all essentials the plot of the
Maybrick tragedy. Before putting it
in the bill private matinee was given
to which critics, actors and literary
folk were invited. In the result the
play was condemned and never pro-
duced, but among the audience at the
matinee, the story goes, were Mrs.
Maybrick and the man whose name
was mentioned in the case. If the story
be true it furnishes one of the most
curious condolences in the history of
crime since the leading case of Hamlet
versus the King of Denmark.

and worldly Wellbeing, as we'll as to
their spiritual condition, declares the
New York Mail. He is an inveterate
match maker and is now engaged in
fostering the tender passion among the
second generation of those that love
him.
Some time ago he boarded a street
car and sat down beside young wom-
an whom he had known from child
hood. On the other side of her was a
very 'likely" young man, and kindly
old Father Cupid at once noticed him.
"Ah, Mary" he said in a whisper
that the young man could not help
oyerhearing, that is a fine-looking
beau you've got there beside you"
Mary blushed.

WHAT HAS BEEN GAINED

Now that the Bullooh county lynch
ers have had time to take a second So
Der thought, perhaps they are prepared
to answer the question. what has been
gained by their lawless acts? Are the
people of the county better satisfied
than if they had permitted the law to
take its course? Is the moral atmos-
phere purer? Is there greater certainty
that no more crimes similar to that of
which the Hodges family were the vic
Tins will be committed? 1t is doubtful
if any of these questions can be an
swered in the affirmative.
On the other hand a spirit of lawless-
ness seems to have taken possession of
some of the white men of the county
ping negroes for old offenses and
fancied grievances. 1t is not at all i'm
probable that they will be fighting
among themselves before they get tired
of their debauch of lawlessness. The
race feeling has been intensified and
the negroes are leaving the county just
at time when they are greatly need
ed. Under the most favorable circum-
stances the county hasn't more labor
than it needs. The departure of con-
siderable number of negroes at this
time therefore would cause a pretty big
loss to cotton farmers.
1t will be years before the two races
will be on as good terms as they were
before the lynching, The negroes will
feel they are treated with injustice, and
will conduct themselves as if they feel
they had a grievance.
The sheriff of the county has an
nounced that the attacks upon the ne
groes must stop. and we have no doubt
that in that position he has the support
of the substantial citizens. They ought
to do more than insist that lawlessness
shall cease. They ought to assist the
sheriff in putting a stop to it. 1t would
stop quickly if those who control pub
lie sentiment in the county were to take
a bold and uncompromising stand on
the side of law and order-if they
should let it be understood that they
wouldn't tolerate any more of it.
The newspapers of other states are of
course condemning the lynchng in the
harshest terms, but we are not caring
so much about what they are saying of
it as we are about its effect upon our
own people. who are Immediately inter-
ested. That effect as we are realizing,
is bad. and we should do all we could
to counterfeit it. Discussions in relig-
ious congregations, dissatisfaction
among militiamen and scarcity of la
Dor are indications of it. but it may be
a good while before there is full
realization OF the full extent Of the
harm done.
