leave the Sunday School by the time they are eighteen years old; that those who remain are usually careless about lesson study and often disorderly and inattentive. As the chief cause lead- ing to this state of affairs he alluded to the widespread indifference to the Sunday School on the part of the fa- thers which naturally and inevitably leads to indifference on the part of the boys, who wish to initiate their fa- thers and follow their example.
 He mentioned several methods of work which will do much toward win ming and holding the boys. He em- phaslzed the importance of having boys and girls in separate classes, of having a separate classroom for the boys, having them write the answers to questions on states or notebooks, marking the lesson, using the Bible only in the class, drilling the boys in finding Bible references, having quar- terly class socials and using the black board.
 The fourth session of the Sunday School Teachers Institute was opened last night with devotional exercises by Rev. J. w. O'Hara.
 The general topic of Looking after the Absentees" was then taken up, and the different phases of this important subject were discussed by practical Sunday School Workers.
 "The Teachers Part" was discussed by MT. B. M. Washburn. MT. Washburn spoke of the great importance of the teacher keeping In close personal touch with his scholars, by means of person. al visits, letters, telephone messages, etc. It Is the duty of the teacher to look up every absentee every week.
 'The Scholars Part" was discussed by Bradford Hardie. While the Super intendent and the teacher can each help in the work of looking after the absentees, said MT. Hardie, yet their efficiency is greatly increased if they enlist the interest and cooperation of the scholars as well. Mir. Hardie men, tioned ways of securing this co-opera- ton on the part of the scholars.
 After free discussion of these topics, the Institute adjourned
 The closing session of the Institute will be held in the Central Presbyter- noon when the following program WiIf be observed.

Pnuneh His Watch .

A good story Is going the rounds on two of Water Streets most prominent and influential business men. one or these gentlemen, a wholesale Srocor' invited his friend Thursday afternoon To 20 to the baseball game With him. The gentleman who had been invited did not have any money in his pocket he discovered just before he left his store, but did not think 1t necessary to draw any Gs he thought that his friend the grocer, would have the necessary amount to pay for both of tn ,m to get within the enclosure and witness the game.
 So together they crossed the coun- try bridge that spans the Alabama river, cracking jokes as they went, and finally after pulling through the sand- bed between the bridge and the pase- ball grounds they arrived at the gate to the park. The wholesale grocer then reached into his pocket to get the money with whkh to buy two tickets. He searched in vain through all of his pockets, but finally had to admit that he did not haze cent with him. Tue two gentlemen stood on the outside of the enclosure for several minutes, so the friend says, and the grocer would ask everyone who passed to lend him the price of admission. But it seemed as if all who were attending the game had only brought with them enough to pay their own way in. The guest finally tired of this and went Up to the ticket officer and took his watch of and pawned 1t to Ticket Seller Phil lips for a ticket and left the grocery man on the outside still searching for a quarter In some way the wholesale grocer finally got in the grounds aud his friend states that he climbed over the fence with 8 crowd of boys. But anyway he witnessed the game.

Another Telegram from stouch.

I. l.. Rosendorf of the Selma Base Ball Association, this morning re- ceived another telegram from Manager Tom Stouch of the Meridian Club of tho Cotton States League in reference to his securing a franchise In that organi- zation. The telegram stated that the team that was liable to drop out of the Cotton States League any day was Greenville and suggested that MT. Ros- endorf write to the President of the League so that Selma would have her application in for the vacancy when Greenville drops out, before any other city, and therefore have the first claim with that org:Slization.
 Several Selmlans before the base ball season opened made an effort to get a franchise in the Cotton States League but all the franchises had been taken. At that time the officers of the Asso- citation were very favorably impressed with the idea of Selma coming in and wrote ill return that they would give this city the first showing to enter that body if any of the clubs Sompos- ing 1t then were to drop out. So 1t IS very likely that if GreenvilIe or any of the other cities composing the Cotton States League drops out that Selma will be given an opportunity to join that organization. Greenville Is the smallest city in the league and it is understood that the owners of the club fin that city have been losing money from the start.

Tn HeIn the Cavalry.

During the first part of next week a committee of prominent business men will begin the soliciting of subscrip- tions from the citizens of Selma and Dallas County for a horse fund for the Dallas Light Dragons. Many of the members of the company are young men who, on small salaries, are unable to pay from $2e to $40 each year for horse hire for drilling and campaign purposes. and if the fund is not raised, the cavalry company may have to dis band.
 The cavalry company during the past years has been a great help to Selma and Dallas County and the horse fund of $750 per year, which 1t Is proposed to raise for the maintenance of the company should be subscribed to lib- orally by the citizens of Dallas. At a meeting of the Dragons next Thursday night the regular non-commission of- fflcers of the company, which was re- gently reorganized, will be appointed, and the weekly drill will be held.
