One of the latest improvements in
transportation facilities is coach to
take the place of the disease-carrying
Pullman. The new car can be almost
instantly changed from a parlor car
into a diner or sleeper. and the berths
are all under the floor out of the
way except when in use, and where
they are constantly ventilated while
not in use The Pullman may be bet
ter than some things. but ii is bad
enough, and its unhealthfulness Is
notorious.

Some OF the Democratic political
organs are telling a nasty story of
how a petition purporting to be sign
ed by voters of Breckenridge county,
asking Standardized Owen to vote
for Judge Paynter, was Matched up
in the Hopkinsville asylum, and the
signatures forged by asylum en-
ployes. The scrupulous care with
which the organs referred to refrain
from giving the other side, however,
makes the public anxious to hear
what the accused have to say.

ONE LANGUAGE
Is Suggested For All the People of
the Earth.

Philadelphia, Jan. 2.-One alpha
bet which can be used in many Ian
guages is the dream of phoneticians
all over the world. and long step to-
ward the devising of such a conve-
nience has been taken here. The
Modern Language Association of
America, at the end of its three days
convention at Haverford College.
passed a resolution indorsing a sug-
gestion that the work be undertaken.
The resolution was as follows:
Resolved, That the Modern Ian
guage Association of America ap-
prove the proposal to hold an inter
national conference of experts in
phonetics for the purpose of consid-
ering a uniform method of graphic
representation of sounds of speech. &"

A PERFECT FOOD.

-
That SCOTS Emulsion
should act SO quickly and
satisfactorily in all cases
of lost flesh and continued
wasting is not surprising
when its food value is UNI
derstood. With pure Nor
wegian cod liver oil, hypo-
phosphites of lime and
soda and glycerine, there
is combined in SCOTS
Emulsion the best ele-
ments of nourishment and
strength building known
to medical science. Any
physician will ellyou this.
The use of these ingredi-
ents in the proper proper
tons; the employment of
only the purest grade of
each, and to combine them
perfectly is the secret of
the success of SCOTS
Emulsion. You will not
find a more certain way to
stop waste, build flesh and
strength and supply nour-
ishment than through
SCOTS Emulsion.

show gains in building for the year
just closed. Louisville claims the
palm. showing a total of $1,000, 600
over. SCISSORS the preceding
year or, in other figures, a
gain of 125 per cent. This
Is good for Louisville. as it places her
above the nine largest cities IN the
country. Louisville's prosperity is
only an evidence of what is going on
all over Kentucky. Paducahs gain in
building progress for the year was
about $4,000, or a gain of nearly
33 per cent. How much greater the
increase will be this year depends en-
tirely on the people.

The Vim won the first race in which the Aux finished last, and the latter was second in both the second and third races. The Vim was third in the second and third races of tho day. The Caramba is owned by c. H. w. Poster of the Eastern Yacht club, the Aux by Charles Francis Adams of the Quincy Yacht club and the Vim by Ire nor L. Park of the American yacht club of New York.

With the Barons last night, Castro left for shreveport. and will cavort about the lot this afternoon with Birmingham strapped across his breast.
 After much dickering and consultation both over the long distance and the tele- graph wires, the deal was consummated. Castro was turned over to Birmingham for the remainder of the season. At the conclusion of the season he is restored to Nashville.

The Addition of Castro Has Wonderful Eect-What They All Say About the Coming ConfictS-1o Split Even
 the Determinatlon-What Chances Are.

The Barons have turned the home stretch, fully 50 points to the good.
 Memphis Is following a weakening sec- ond. with New Orleans just strong enough to cross the Bluff City, and then fall back again.
 Atlanta and Shreveport are serappfng 1t out for the fourth place in the race. Then come in varying order Montgomery, Nash- vile and Little Rock. Thus the race is ending.
 How will the ponies be when the tape is crossed7
 Birmingham, Memphis, New Orleans, Atlanta. Shreveport. Montgomery, Nash vile, Little Rock.
 While the Barons have gained and maintained throughout the season an hon. orable position, they have got to the home stretched in a ''breathed" condition. Right now the Barons are still weak. Garvin Is nursing wounded finger and the pitch CTS are a trifie winded. And in that con- dition they prepare to go up against the hardest proposition of the season. The addition of Castro. however, renewed the courage and determination of the plucky fellows.
 The Barons have entered the west on two previous occasions this year. The first trip was disastrous. The second was splen- did. What will the third be? More perils than ever before are to be encountered, because New Orleans. Memphis and the remaining members of the western subdi- vision ralize that they will have to scrap to keep Birmingham from landing the rag.
 However, there is the old ginger. It was apparent yesterday, and while the day was lost there was no stain or dishonor. There was an error that lost the game but throughout the struggle the Barons were full of life, exuberanee and ginger.
 The Barons have been successful in the landing of a new shortstop, and all is well. The chances are that the pennant will fly at West End.
 There was great deal of eagerness on the part of the Barons as they awaited the arrival of tho through Alabama Great Southern train last night. They were champing their bits, as 1t were.
