DOG SHOW IS HERE
CHILDREN DELIGHTED BY FEATs
 OF TRAINED ANIMALS.
seibels Brothers Bring Some New Att fractions to Montgomery and
 Give an EntertnininE Performance.

Hundreds of little Montgomerians were yesterday afternoon and last night delighted with Seibers dog and pony show at the Todd show grounds.
 The dog and pony show is not dis similar to dozens of others that have played in Montgomery, but the dumb actors are just as clever in the old tricks and there are some few new tricks which were exceptionally good.
 This style of amusement never fails to delight a young audience and the children and some of the grown ups got their moneys worth. Seibel has "a new attraction. The paraphernalia Is all clean and bright and the ser vice is good. As far as the perform ance goes, you have the pony drill, the high school horses, the pony see saw, the dog that walks on one leg the dog that walks on his hind feet and the dog that walks on his fore feet. You see the high diving dog and the jumping grey hounds. Probably the best feature was an equestrian dog. who performed the most difficult feats of horsemanship with an ease and grace that was marvellous. The usual comedy stunts were pulled off the ring master was entertainingly To- quacious and the band made a lot of music. How else could a child spend a better afternoon?
 The same performance today natl nee and night.

The Climbers lost. and there was joy in the hearts of TOO who witnessed this afternoons game with the Oyster. err the visitors and while pitching a good game. and fielding his position excel lently. aided materially in losing the game on a wild throw, which gave run and the game to his foemen:
 Doremus went in to pitch for Mobile. but at the end of the third inning re- tired in favor of vernuelli. who had speed to burn, only one hit being se- cured off him during the entire six in- nings. This was by Hilley In the sev- enth, who made a two-bagger and ad- vanced on Haussen's sacrifice. scoring on long fly out of McCrane to deep cen ter. An evidence, however, of the good support of McCrane, save the three err TOTS of Perry, which were costly in sense. was that Mobile in one inning had three men on bases. three several times in one inning and only three got to the plate, one of those through a wild throw of Haussen to second. Tue surprise of the game was the powerful sped of Vernuelli, Mobile boy, who pitched a great game.

DUN & Co.,s REyIEw.

New York. April 6.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade will say tomorrow:
 Opening of spring trade is percept- ibiy retarded by the partial interrup- ton to coal mining except in the im- mediate vicinity of anthracite mines. High temperatures not only broadens but stimulates agricultural operations, re.opens Northern navigation and starts many contemplated building operations. Were it not for few labor controver- sies, the commercial horizon would be cloudless
 But some manufacturing plants will be compelled to suspend if the fuel is interrupted by demands for higher wages in certain localities. That the year 1906 started out to eclipse all re- cords is evinced by bank exchange IS per cent. larger than in the first quar- ter in the previous prosperous year. while liabilities of commercial fatl- ures averaged only S1 cents to each $1,000 Of solvent payments through the clearing houses. which is the lowest commercial death rate for the first three months of any year.
 Railway earnings in March were 6.S per cent. larger than last year. and foreign commerce at this port for the last week showed gains of $1,139.369 in imports and sS3T959 in exports as compared with the corresponding week in 1905.
 PfOgreSS Tn the Iron ana steel In- dustry has not suffered as yet from the partial suspension of coal mining and new business comes forward each week in great volume. Latest devel- opmsnts are most pronounced in the structural steel division. Next in vol- ume of new business Is the tonnage of steel rails that Is rapidly closing order books up to the end of the year. Further strength appeared in the hide market
 Failures this week numbered 197 as against 232 last yeIr and IS in Canada as against 28 last year.

This will make an outfield that looks like it has anything in this league skinned city block-Durrett in left, Apperious in center and Houtz in great work he has done since joining the Climbers, the inf1eld will be as swift as the outfield-Mullaney on first. Schwartz on second, Perry on third and Hilley at short, with Busch utility. There is no question of the fact that McAleese and Hausen make the strong est backstop ever in Montgomery, and possibly in the South. Maxwell. a bix ix-footer. who won something like nineteen out of twenty-two games in the Cotton States last year, has been added to the pitching staff, which will be; Malarky, Hale, May and Maxwell, right handlers, and McCrane, the south of goods. McMakin also belongs to Montgomery, but unless Maxwell proves a counterfeit, the chances of Spartenburg John are slim.
 McMal<in is q terrific hitter, though, and a hard, conscientious worker, and that stick of his has broken up lots of games. Billy May is hitting hard, though, and looks like he is a conner The fight for the fourth place will mar row down to May, McMakin and Max well. Under the rule adopted at Mem phs Durrett has until the 1st of May to do his H23" act.
 Maxwell will return to Montgomery only thirteen men are to be carried, a utility man canot be used, and only four pitchers or a utility man and only three pitchers.

 Brouthers is a fixxture on third base for the Athletics. Connie Mack thinking that he has a star in him, and Oldring are that the Rube will be playing one of the outfield positions before many days have gone by. It looks like the fight for the sixth place on the pitch and Weldon Henley with all the chances in favor of the blue-eyed boy who pitched such wonderful ball while the Athletics were in Montgomery. The Philadelphia correspondent of The Sporting News says:
 Manager Mack wears a satisfied smile on his face these days. The e 1 third base problem said Connie upon his return from the South. Lave Cross won't be missed.

Jimmy has been doing great pitching stunts down South. He cer- tainly Is a postmaster in pitching the spit ball. Bartley also looks very good.
 ''' As to Wadde1l, have every reason to believe that he is back in his old time form-the same old Rube. Byrnes is cat-like in his movements. He Is as kitten-full of action all the time and one of your aggressive fighting kind of ball players, the kind that are winners" Armb-uster Riggs and Daley are all good youngsters, but little more minor league experience will not hurt them. And I should add that Myers Is pitching better ball than a good many older and more experienced twirlers. am only sorry that we can not keep all these youngsters, fo- each and everyone Is good enough for the best major league teams. Manager Mack has decided to farm out Myers, Armbruster, Riggs, Daley and Hannifin so that the 1908 Athletic team will be made up as follows: Bender, Plank Coakley, Waddell, Dygert.
