Graduate Coach Lane of the University of Georgia football team arrived in Bir- mingham last night to make arrange ments for the game Saturday afternoon at West End park when Alabama and Georgia will do battle on the gridiron.
 The Georgia team will probably arrive in Birmingham tomorrow night and the Tuscaloosa eleven will arrive early Sat urday morning. The game will be called promptly at o'clock, and every precau- ton will be taken to keep the crowd off the field in order that there shall be no interruption of the game.
 MT. Lane is of the opinion that Georgia will make it quite interesting for Ala bama. Last night in talking of the pros poets of the game he said
 Georgia is light this year, lighter than usual, but the boys are fast and they are playing a much better game than when they tackled Clemson recently. Clemson defeated us, but were we to play them again do not believe that the score would be half so large.
 I've are light, but We have a gritty bunch and one that will fight as long as there is any chance and then take a grab at the straw to change the tide of victory if necessary. We held Clemson down handily for the first half, but their superior weight told in the second half and they scored on us frequently. Ala bama will weigh several pounds, probably 10 pounds more per man than Georgia, but the Red and Black team will prove a strong antagonist.
 "If Alabama wins from Georgia she will have to put up a fast and snappy game. Our boys have been showing a great deal of speed recently. We have all new men, but the games they have played have taught them valuable les sons. They were in no way a criterion of what we will do against Alabama"
 Owing to the many protests at the last game about people being allowed on the field during the game and obstruct-

"AIona the Kennebec.,

Quaint New England folks. whose
fund OF humor appears to be endless
picturesque scenery, and honest love
forms the basis for the plot of "Along
the Kennebec," the latest successful
play of New England life, which will
be seen in this city on Thursday, DC.
tober 18th, at the Grand Opera House.
The play deals with the story of
waif, afterwards an heiress, who IS
being deprived of her rights by a wo-
man who attended her mother on her
deathbed, and who, with the assist
ance of male accomplice, tries to.
secure the fortune of the girl and
brand her sweetheart thief. Like
all New England plays laughter must
intermingle with tears and several
new and original types have been In
troduced. There is a Swedish main
servant and a suffering hotel wait
er; gushing spinster, an almost in
dispensable character to bucolic plays
pursued by elderly beaux, whose at
tempt at contest in the field of love
is almost ludicrous in its seriousness.
Another novel creation is an over
grown country pumpkin, who seldom
speaks but makes his presence felt by
continuous whistling. No matter
where he is, he is always whistling.
The humor is SO carefully blended
with sentiment that just as you are
on the verge of tears something hui
morous happens which turns the tide
to circulating laughter. No play of
recent years has had more stump.
tuous production in point of scenic
detail and the production in this city
will be given with careful attention.

cause OF dispute which had arisen
as to whether the figures should be
masculine or feminine. The sculptor
had created his conceptions of the
two angels in the form of women. and
his work had been sharply criticised
on that score.
Mr.. Borglum said, that he had re.
ceived final opinion of one OF the
church authorities that the figures
must be masculine, and he added: 81

any clergyman could stand in the

Now that the whole unpleasant mat.

that the feminine side of our race

1t was only by the barest chance that
two children escaped death by being
crushed under the car wheels, In the
lower freight yard. Monday afternoon.
The incident happened near the curve
on the line of the Maine Central, a
short distance below the shoe factory.
Train No 16, which goes west from Au-
gusta at 312 was going down through
the freight yard, and train NO. ~.
which goes east at 3.2O, was Just coming
in. On the west bound track were two
children coming along, and as they saw
No. 16 approaching. they stepped over
on to the east bound track. to get out
of the way. AS they did SO. No. ~
came up the line. The noise oil the first
train prevented them from hearing the
other train, which was rushing down
upon them at a rapid rate, and mad the
engineer not set the emergency brake,
they must surely have been ground I'M
der the wheels of his train. The stop OF
The train was so sudden that 1t shook
the passengers up and threw some OF
them into the corners Of tho coacheS.
hut the children were saved. The loco
motive, however. was within a few feet
of them, when it stopped. Warnings
have been repeatedly given to people
and children also. by the employees OF
the road, against walking on the
tracks. but it does not seem tc do any
good, and the practice will probably
! continue until some one Is killed.
