LOSES STAR PLAYER.
Cornell Has Little Hope Of Winning

Cornell HAS Little 6opo OF winning

Special to Times Republican.
Mt. Vernon, March 17.-Altho Cor
nell had hoped to have base ball
team which would prove strong fac
tor In the fight for the silver bat, these
hopes seem now to be blasted. K. D.
Miller. who has played star game
at short stop for Cornell for the last
five years, will not be on this years
team. He has been elected principal
Of the Tama City schools, and will
leave Immediately to occupy his new
position. This leaves the infield in a
bad plight, as he was a sure fielder
as we'll as strong hitter. Having
been on the team so long the younger
players were always inspired to do
their best by his presence. Then two
OF the other members Of last years
team will probably not be able to re-
turn next term; thus causing vacan-
cies which will be hard to fill. In In
door practice short time ago, one Of
the men dislocated his wrist, and
another received a badly sprained
ankle. Considering these facts 1t
seems highly probable that the strong
aggregations Of Iowa and Ames will
have little difficulty in defeating Cor

University Athletics Suffered
Great Loss by Recent Sad
Death of Rivers
ROSS CANNOT PLAY THIS YEAR

Jumpers on tho Team, and While
Rapidly Recovering Now From an
Attack of Typhoid Fever, Will be
Unable to Compete.

| Iowa City. March H. The death
of Rivers. the first Of the week, has
cast a gloom over the work of the
track squad during the past six days.
He was one of the most popular ath-
etes In the university and was said
to be the strongest man on the half
mile relay team. While Ross is rap
idly improving In the university hos
p,tal from tho attack of typhoid fever
which he had three weeks ago, 1t Is
now we'll understood that he will be
unable to compete this year. He was
one of the strongest broad jumpers on
the team, winning first In the state
meet for the past two years and a
place In Chicago last spring. His loss
is severely felt as all Of the men In
the broad jump squad are practically
green men with the exception OF Par
sons. who has made record In the
event in past years The bulk of this
years work will fall on him, but he
will be assisted by Captain Barker,
who will do that in addition to his
high jumping. The other men are
Prian and Mccain. both Of whom have
had little experience previous to the
present season.
The meet with Northwestern is still
up in the air. The Evanston school
wants to send its track team to Iowa
City ana Manager Walker does not feel
justified In accepting their propo-
sltion in view Of the fact that Iowa
City is poor town for team meets.
As Northwestern does not wish to have

ham is metropolis. with ever-increasing The time was-and only q rew years ago at that-when Birmingham was isolated from the rest of the state, when the other cities and towns regarded ner growth with mistrust and jealousy. This feeling was apparent in the halls of legislation. But that has passed never to return. Ala bama now knows that Birmingham Is something more than an industrial city, great as she is in that respect
 THE HEART OF THE STATE.
 She Is the heart of the state, drawing her life blood in the form of population and products from every portion of it, and sending back a rich, revivifying stream to the very extremities. The cap- italists. the bankers and the business men of Birmingham have time and again proved their willingness and ability to foster the interests of the agricultural sections, and today the planters and farmers and country merchants can ob- tain money in Birmingham more readily and on more favorable terms than they could expect to get 1t In the east. Any one with a merely superficial knowledge of business knows this to be true.
 WIDER THAN THAT.
 But Birmingham's claims a metrop- oils extends beyond the borders of Ala bama. A large portion of Mississippi and northwestern Florida, and parts of Geor- gia and Tennessee, have been brought within the sphere of her influence by rhis liberal and progressive policy, which Is
The Birmingham age-herald., 1905-07-16

of the agricultural districts of this and adjacent states. And it assues them, on the authority of the company which 1t represents. and which is the largest hold CT of property in the city, that residence real estate in Birmingham is not only thoroughly safe investment, but one which will yield large returns for com- paratively small sums.
 AN INVITING FIELD.
 Truly there is no more inviting field for the investor of moderate means. Bir- mingham Is now one of the most rapidly growing cities in the country, and when the developments which were made abso- lutely certain when the problem of mak- ing steel was successfully worked out be- gin-and they must begin in the imme- diate future-the accession of population Is confidently expected to break all previ- ous records. And then the demand for is confidently expected to breat all records. And then the demand for adapted to that purpose.
 In stating these facts, REALTY is try ing to do something more than to ad- vance the interests of this company or those of property-owners at large. If it has succeeded in making ciear the propo- stion that the best way TOT the people of this section to assist in the enlarge ment of a city, which is developing and will continue to develop it's resources with vestment, 1t will have simply discharged its duty as a publication which has the welfare of the south at heart.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1905-07-16

being carried out with no blare of trump cts.
 This phase of the development of Blr- mingham, of course, means much for the city, but 1t means great deal more for the people of Alabama and adjoining states. Every selfish consideration as well as patriotic pride should incite them to assist by all means in their power in the upbuilding of a city which has already redeemed the promise of becoming a tower of financial strength in this portion of the south.
 TT IS HER RIGHT.
 Birmingham, therefore, has a right to expect that the surplus money of the peo- pie in this territory will be invested in her enterprises. If the farmers of the west and northwest have found 1t profitable, both directly and indirectly, to contribute to the growth of the cities of those sec- tions. by investing money realized from bumper crops in city real estate. every consideration which actuated them should appeal with increased emphasis to the cotton growers and country merchants of this section.
 As matter of fact the people of Ala bama have not been slow to realize the advantages and certainly of returns of investment in Birmingham business prop erty. They are among the most eager nduirers for that class of property, and would purchase 1t more freely If it were to be had. and If investment in 1t did not call for large sums. Some of them are already turning their attention to resi- dence property. and REALTY predicts that in very short time residence prop erty in Birmingham will become the fa- vorite form of investment for the people

My address is 8O15 First avenue"
 Before the summer wanes some citizen will write that to correspondent.
 Greater Birmingham has arrived
 The postoffice department of the federal government has decreed 1t by extending the free delivery of the city to East Lake, making First avenue continuous thor oughfare nearly seven miles In length, counting from Twentieth street in the heart of town.
 That Is to say, whatever may be the political subdivisions, 1t recognizes that portion of the valley from First street to the extreme limit of East Lake as one municipality.
 And so 1t will be considered by the peo- pie of the country hereafter.
 NOT THE END OF IT.
 Few cities in this country can boast of a street of that length. But this Is not the end of It. Within comparatively short time. the free delivery service will be extended to West End and the commu- mites beyond 1t. Then it will be possible for one to say, "I live on East Seventy fifth street." or West Seventy-fifth street. as the case may be.
