INNOVATIONS AT PARK CHANGES IN REGULATIONS OF
 BASEBALL. Season Tickets Will Be Sold to Ladies-Improvements to Be Made in Arrangement
 of Bleachers.

There will be some changes in Mont gon.ery baseball this summer, innovations that will be appreciated by the local fans.
 Last summer the, most enthusiast ic patrons Of baseball in Montgomery were the ladies, and this year they are going to be made more comfortable if possible than ever. Last year there was one ''LS- dies Day" Tuesday in every week, when the grounds and grandstand were thrown open to the ladies. Alb Powell in Atlanta and Mike Finn in Little Rock inaugur- ated a scheme last season that proved to be the most systematic one in it's working ever invented. In these two towns there were two ladies' days a week. and these two managers put on sale a ladies' ticket, costing 1 for the season. A lady having one of these tick for every League game during the chans- pionship season as well as through the gates on the two ladies' days. Tuesdays and Fridays.
 will adopt this plan during the coming season, and a lady owning one of these tickets will be admitted to the grand stand free for every game during the season and through the gates twice a week.
 The tickets are now in the hands Of the printers. and will be in the form of an annual pass, the name of the lady owning the ticket being written on it.
 There Will be an entrance in the center of the grand stand with a flight of steps leading into the stand, this entrance to be used exclusively for ladies holding these tickets and their escorts. This will save the lady patrons of the game from the confusion and annoyance experienced in a big crowd at the main gate.
 In case of rain this year there will not be confusion by the patrons of the bleachers making 8 dive for the grand stand. There will be an entrance under meath the grandstand and in case of rain the occupants of the bleachers may quict- ly walk under the grandstand, going back to their seats on the bleachers after the rain is over without confusion. The oleachers for negroes this year, in- stead of being to the right of the bleach CTS for white persons, will be on the ieft of the grandstand, walk being built through the back and bottom of the grandstand. negroes walking straight from the entrance gates to their bleach- erg.
 The left. center and probably right field fences will be moved farther back so that there will be more room for good fast fielding and fewer home runs this year than was the case last year.

TALK OF
FARMING
Campaign of Education
Planned for
islands.

a campaign of education is planned
order to encourage the spread of the
doctrine of diversified industries in the
Territory. At the meeting of the In
stitute at the Board of Agriculture
rooms yesterday afternoon j. It. Craw-
ley suggested. that a series of lectures
on agricultural topics be arranged for
the enlightenment of the people of the
islands The idea was heartily endors-
ed and arrangements will be nade for
lectures by prominent local and Visiting
agriculturists. Jared Smith, president
of the institute, is heartily ia favor of
the plan. He said that the newspapers
of the Territory had been doing much
good in encouraging the agricultural
development of the islands during the
past three years.
There has been a marked change of
sentiment said he, among the peo-
pie oe the Territory in favor of the
Investigation of industries and as a
result many settlers are likely to come
here from the States. [ believe already
many of the people OF the cities here are
going in for agriculture as WE'LL Mr..
Smith said that this was noticeable
particularly about Hiio, where they are
exporting 5000 lunches of bananas
monthly. In another year the monthly
export will amount to 10000 punches of
bananas, according to the acreage now
planted.
In this connection, Mr. Smith stated
that an appropriation of $1,000 had been
made by Congress for assistance to
farmers Institutes, to be expended in
publications, lantern slides, etc. Mr..
Smith believed that lectures should all
ways be illustrated by lantern slides
and he hoped to get the use OF the
slides from the Agricultural Depart
ment.
At the afternoon meeting, a new con-
stitution and bylaws was reported by
the committee and adopted by the In
stitute. Two members We're also elect
ed to the executive committee with
Jared Smith. These were James D.
Dole of Wahfawa and j. T. Crawley.
The evening meeting of the Asso-
citation was much more largely attend
ed, and several interesting papers were
read. The first was by Forester r. S.
Hosner on The Work of the United
States Bureau of Forestry" Mr.. Hos
mer traced the organization and de-
velopment of the bureau from it's be-
ginning, telling of the magnitude which
forestry work had now assumed and
of the importance attached to it by
President Roosevelt.
The Relation of the Chemist to the
Farmer" was the s.,biect of an INTEL |
ligent paper by DR.. Z. c. Shorey, chem
list of the United States Experiment
Station. He said the knowledge of soils
and the influence upon them of cheni-
Gals were necessary for the proper Gull |
tivation of land. DR.. E. C. Rhodes was
to have read paper on Tree Planting |
For characterization and Windbreak,v |
but was unable to be present

COURTS DISPUTE
RIGHT OF WAY

/ Upon the setting of criminal cases for
trial before Judge De Bolt yesterday,
the existence of tender point be-
tween the Territorial and the Federal
courts was revealed. Mr.. Ashford for
defendants stated that he could rot
attend TO the legislative cases on We'd
nesday. as he had obtained a contin-
uance of a case in the Federal court
TO attend the defense of Man Chong
there.
''Displeasure not all directed at my
self was shown in the Federal court
over the assumption by this court of
the right of way" Mr.. Ashford re-
marked.
Does the Federal court think it has
the right of way?" Judge De Bolt ask
ed, adding, This court was here first. -
When Mr. Ashford said he could not
attend the first of the week, as he
had to go out of town, Judge De Bolt
observed, You have too much bust
ness, Mr. Ashford
Dame Justice was eventually allowed
to choose her United States chariot in
preference to her Territorial coach for
taking the right of way on Wednesday.
