BLOW AT POOL ROOMS
SUPREME COURT sUsTAINs CHAN
 CELLOR SMITH.
The Ola Dominion TeIegraph Company sf Mobile Loses Its Case Against
 Sheriff John F. Powwers.

In affirming the action of the lower court in the case of The old Dominion Telegraph Company vs. John F. Pow CTS. Sheriff. which came up from the Chancery Court of Mobile County, the Supreme Court of Alabama yesterday dealt another blow to pool selling on horse races in Alabama
 The decision of the court in effect was that the local officers. acting under a city ordinance. could prevent the sell ing of pools on horse races. and that a chancellor was not called upon to en- join them from interfering with tho conduct of this company's business.
 It was alleged that the old Dominion Telegraph Company was interested in the dissemination of racing news, and 1t was further alleged that the com pany sold pools on horse races. Sheriff Powers of Mobile County arrested the officers of the defendant corporation for selling pools. The company applied for an injunction. making It's applica- ton to Judge A. A. Coleman of the Jef- ferson County Circuit Court. Judge Coleman granted temporary intunc- tion. making it returnabie to Chanoei- Tor Smith of Mobile. Tn the meanwhile the defendant corporation was charged again by Sheriff Powers with the sell- ing of pools. On the hearing coming up before Chancellor Smith, he denied the contention of the attorneys for the company that the officers had been guilty of contempt of court in making arrests while injunction proceedings were pending. and ruled that the prose cution of the company being for an alleged violation of the criminal laws no permanent injunction was granted The Supreme Court sustained this de- cision in its opinion yesterday.

 supplements the State law and ems powers the Recorder to sentence to hard labor for playing baseball on Sun- day. Since the State and the city have both declared expressly that Sunday baseball shall not Do played there ls little doubt that Recorder Arlington would sentence the players to hard. Ia bor if they fiagrartiy violate the law. knowing the penalty. Those who know Recorder Arlington best believe he has the courage to do 1t
 However" he added. ''there is no ball park in the city limits of Montgomery and Sheriff Waller has declared eInphat. ically that the Sunday baseball law will be enforced and that the game shall not be played anywhere in Montgomery County. If the police interfere with a game played in the police iurisdictlon there may be a conflict of authority. but there is no doubt the law will be en- forced no matter by whom the arrests are made.

aThe Land of The sky.s

saThe Land of the Sky" in Western North Carolina, between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Iron and unaka ranges of Eastern Tennessee. Is at it's lowest point more than two thousand feet above the level of the sea: 1t Is situated in the most favored portion of the temperate zone, trav- ersed by splendid rivers and dotted with beautiful lakes.
 From the moment the traveller en- ters this region until duty forces him to leave 1t, nothing that is unpleasing greets his eye. The charm of this land Is real; It's delights an actuabty. < AsheviIle Is the central city of this favored region: 1t has several large and fine hotels. and is town of com mercial importance. The season at Asheville is always, its hotels never closed and the visitor Is made welcome. At all times we find Asheville a pleas ant spot, full of life, of color and of enjoyment, rich with possibilities, for health and recreation. The drives around Asheville are unexcelled for the lovely views they afford. Horseback riding Is in great favor and bicycling and automobiling are popular.
 In arranging summer trip. how ever, the Sapphire country should not be overlooked; it is one of the most delightful in all this vast area of hill and dale, field and forest, taking in Lake Toxaway. Fairfield and Sapphire. The physical contour of this region is strikingly similar to the English lake district, but is as a whole grander In every way. Its mountains are more than twice the height of their English compeerr: it's torrents more impressive, it's lakes bIuer and more picturesque. This beautiful region is only one nights ride from Montgomery. Two trains daily; fast service; excursion rates. Call on the Agents of the Southern Railway for complete infor- nation. adv--tf.
