BASE BALL LEAGUE.

AS each war vessel now in the
harbor no doubt has base ball team
on board, why would il not be good
thing to organize a league among
them. and play a series of>games for
the championship of the feet?
One or two games could be played
during the week which would nc
doubt have good drawing card and
would also determine the superiority
of a boats team
Suitable grounds can be secured
and by charging small fee suitable

ArsenIzation in New Orleans.

The prevalence of the yellow scourge fin New Orleans was accompanied by an unknown doctor hailing from St. paul. Minn. Nothing was or Is known concerning him except that in previous years he had tried to induce Congress to accept "Arsenization," his cure-all, for all diseases, for cholera, charbon, hubonic plague. and, of course, yellow fever. Congress refused to buy or en- dorse his arsenic cure, and he pro- ceeded to transfer himself from one city to another as diseases appeared
 He went to New Orleans when 1t was known that yellow fever had gained foothold, and he speedily won the patronage of minimizing people who were afraid of it. He did a thriving business until some of the arsenized were stricken with the fever itself. Then 1t was that the marine hospital service and the state and city boards of health denounced his cure-all, and he gave up the battle. and returned perhaps to his native lair. wherever 1t may be. He left, at any rate, New Or leans, declaring that his government had turned against him, and that he would no longer struggle with per verse lot of officials, at least not in New Orleans.
 The arsenic craze in New Orleans threatened at one time to interfere with the brave and difficult fight that tho good people of New Orleans and the marine hospital service are mak ing against the fever. But it stands ,xposed, and its dupes will not here after be an obstacle to scientific work in the infected city.

Books We'll Kept.

'It speaks we'll for the officials of Jef- ferson county that the state examiners were able to examine their books and rec ords in the few days in which they were herke," said a well known citizen yes terday.
 'The report of the examiners to the governor has not yet been made, and so the result of their examination Is not publicly known. No serious mistakes could have been found, I think, for the reason that the examiners audited the books without delay.
 while shortages are seldom found In the other counties by the examiners, num- erous small mistakes and evidences Of carelessness are noticed. Here In Jefferson the largest county in the state, the rec ords are kept accurately and neatly. It is an encouraging sign that in the largest county in the state the records and ac- counts are kept better than in the smaller counties.
 ''If there were any mistakes or errors I feel sure that they would have been noticed by the examiners. Chief Exam iners John T. German and Examiners sedberry and Wilkinson are the best ac- countants I know. They are rapid, accu- rate and close observers"

The Divorce Evil.

"It is a seldom thing that l ever reau a newspaner in our own or other clues that l do not find that the divorce nm as the newspapers call it, is not runiiii'e on full time,' said well-kho"h nm ister of the gospel in Birmingham' No"' what is the matter?

Without calling any hanles' MT. A. married Miss B. and aitef hNins together for several years the wite sued the husband for a divorce on the ground of desertion and failure to provide. The court granted the divorce, but sometime afterward another man sought and ob- tained the consent of this divorced woman to marry him. He called on see to perform the ceremony, but I refused to do so. thought then and still believe l would have violated the scripture as promulgated in Matthew 1929: and l say unto you wno- soever shall put away his wife. except IL be for fornication, and shall marry an other, committeth adultry, and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth com init adultery l take it, therefore, that the only scriptural cause for divorce IS here plainly set forth, But some may insist that the laws of Alabama permit divorce for other reasons. In reply to such prospective querry. l ask where do the courts or people of Alabama ob- tain the right to set aside the laws of the Bible? The Bible has a law which says. Thou shalt not steal, but suppose the legislature of Alabama should enact law which said: You may steal, provided you do not steal more than s5 worth of property Would the stealing of $4 worth of property free man from moral wrong? Let our papers. both religious and secu- lar, give the divorce evil general ex- animation, and perhaps by this educa- tional process our next legislature will be in a mood to mitigate the crying divorce evil.''

September Advance.

The cover design of the September Au- vance is considered by many to be the handsomest yet published by this maga- zine. The name of the magazine and It's principal contents is printed in white' on a crimson backsi ound, barred with black.
 The literary matter of Advance for September is unusually attractive and of varied interest. Henry Morton Payne contributes an amusing study of modern financial legerdemain entitled Gold Brick Syndicates." An interesting ac- count of the organization of the Ku Klux Klan Is contributed by Miss c. R. Jones. niece of Calvin Jones' who is cred tied with being the founder of the order. Willis Boyd Allen con tributes story, "On the Up Grade;;" Grey J. Huffman has a humorous sketch entitled "Lurid Lights on History" Katherine Hopkins Chapman contributes a story. "Salamander sam by Rairhun- do de Ovies, is continued and there is fne usual amount of miscellaneous reading matter.
 The September number of Advance Is credible in every way. The typographi- cal and lithographic work is especially attractive.

Taxation for Sch loI Pufposes,

The schools of Alabama need all the stimulus they can receive from the state or from any other source. If Governor Jelks proposed voting of s750,000 from the state treasury to the public schools should be accepted by the legislature. 1t might be well to con fine it to the erection of better build ings or to equipment purposes. and the cities of this state need not be ex- cepted for all of them need more school houses.
 The school districts do not need state aid nearly so much as they do local taxation. No district will ever appreciate its schools fully unless 1t is taxed towards the support of them. What men pay for or towards they will take an interest in, and they will not take an interest in school whose sup port falls from the state treasury llke the rains from heaven. This Is the history of public schools in all states.
 Whenever we desire to wake up the people of rural Alabama to the need o. better education, the constitution will be amended so that each district can have whatever 1t Is willing to pay for. Governor Jelks' proposition would serve a useful but temporary purpose, but it cannot and will not do away with the imperative need of local taxation Even taxation on county basis does not bring school house to its patrons. The tax must be plain and direct to do that. All educators understand this matter, and all of them will continue to urge the granting of full local tax ation for school purposes, as Louis jana has done.

CHURCH TIPS BARRED.

''The London Tatler'' tells why no hymn with number less than 37 is sung at the English church at Monte Carlo. A member of the congregation once used the hymn sung at a morning service, No. 32, as a tip, and left the church to put the maximum on S2 It turned up. Gossip about his Inspiration led num- Der of persons the following Sunday to play the number of the last hymn. Again 1t won. The next Sunday the church could not accommodate the crush of worshippers but their intent was frus- trated, as the highest number on the roulette table is 3e, and s7 is now the lowest number ever given out at the church.

THRILLING PLIGHT MADE
 BY ROY KNABENSHUE

and he hastened to get away from the dangerous locality
 Heading north with the wind abeam, the Toledo easily beat Sixth avenue ele- vated train on the way to the park. At
 PAS she slid through gap in the trees
 and landed lightly on the turf on the ball
 ground near the Fifty-ninth street en- trance to the park. The crowd charged in and swarmed over the lawns, but they were held somewhat In check by the
 mounted policemen, and fair order was
 maintained. :
 With Knabenshue still on board, the
 ship was lifted on the shoulders of his l assistants and carried in triumph to the
 lot at Sixty-second street. When the good looking aeronaut climb ed out of the machine in the enclosure
 he was surrounded by a small crowd of enthusiastic young women who begged
 for his photograph One golden haired
 damsel threw her arms about Knaben-
 shue's neck and gave him a hearty kiss. He didn't look displeased, and several
 other young women were about to follow
 Goldenhairs lead when Knabenshue was ! dragged inside the tent by his manager. Have you forgotten the fate of Hob son?' asked that wise one, and there after Knabenshue sheered to port or star
 board every time a petticoat hove in sight.
 The highest point reached by the air ship was about 5000 feet above the city. At that height it was visible from near ly every part of Manhattan. The crowds
 gathered on every street corner to gaze
 and wonder and every elevated train had it's platforms crowded with the skygaz- CTS.
 The spectacle had queer effect on the people. Many became quite hysterical, and perfect strangers met on the common ground of wonder and grew friendly at once. Men laughed and shouted in much
 the same way. doubtless, when the Fulton first steamed along the Hudson. After the flight Knabenshue met Leo Stevens, the builder of the California Arrow and the two began arrangements for an airship race. which they hope to pull off in New York some time this fall
 After the talk with Stevens, Knaben- shue sent a cable of congratulation to Santos Dumont. who made successful | flight on Tuesday at Trouville. It is said that the two aeronauts follow each other

 President Alexis W. Thompson, Vice President George A. Baird and Counsel Harry Rubens have left for Chicago. in which city the directors of the Republic Iron and Steel company, will meet next Monday to take action on the preferred dividend. John W. Gates will not attend the meeting. He was present at the meet Ing held in this city three months ago. at which a committee was appointed to look into the affairs of the Republic. This committee seems to have passed out of existence. Anyway, it is stated that all differences between John w. Gates and Alexis W. Thompson have been satis- factorily adjusted.

 'So far as I have seen, no committee has been appointed to investigate the Ice supply, but one could quickly be called Into existence by the Commercial club that would command public confidence.
 If we find that our water, milk and ice are wholesome. we will be forced then to attribute our typhoid germs either to Dame Nature or else to the careless and perhaps out-of-date plumber. We have much plumbing in this town that was put In when our plumbers did not known how to plumb properly

GLASS OF WATER CURE.

From the Kansas City Journal.
 A certain old family physician never tires of proclaiming the virtues of glass of cold water taken on waking in the morning.
 Many people," he remarks, "avoid drinking, water as though 1t were poison, although without it no one can be prop erly healthy. When taken early in the morning 1t has a cleansing and bracing effect on the system. while it's beneficial effects on the liver can hardly be exag- gerated.
 "It Is so simple rule that the advise Is well worth following, especially by those who suffer with indigestion or who awake with feeling of languor, an early morning sensation which afficts innumerable people of sedentary habits

Met Weather in Alabama.

Rain falls nearly every day, and yet the weather man In this district con tinues to call for more moisture. He says he lacks in his statistics nearly three inches of rainfall. and in order to he normal he wants what is coming to him.
 So long as this districts weather clerk is importunate it is but natural that rain should fall even daily, or perhaps twice day. If our excellent weather man would be content with a gentle shower now and then, there would be room for hope. but while he keeps on reminding Dame Nature that he wants for record purposes a three inch deluge that hope-space disappears altogether.
 This is not question that President Roosevelt and the Czar can settle. It Is a question that Is up to our own de- voted weather man. He does not want, it is plain, this district to go dry. He prefers to have it wet. But above all else he desires to even up his record. He believes in averages, and to that belief we must attribute the prevalent wetness, for we have nobody else at hand whom we can blame.

POKER PLAYER FROM KENTUCKY

From the New York Press.
 One of the most remarkable card play CTS In the world recently died. He was a tall Kentuckian and reveled in poker In the center of his forehead was an ace of spades. a depression in the skull and plainly noticeable in the skin. Spades were his long and strong suit. He once told me he had never lost a dollar at poker and was s45.00O ahead of the game. No professional gambler hel He won from his friends at small limit. His business was such that he had to work about eighteen hours out of the twenty-four. on a salary of s5oOO a year, and his recrea- ton was the merry game of draw.
