Went to Pieces.

On the rubber for Birmin~ham was Wilhelm, who did most remarkable work during the first eight innings of the which, with an infeld out. enabled the tribe of Gilks to tie the score and cause the contest to go the extra journey.
 Ginger Clark was sent to the rescue in the ninth, and proved to be a stum- bling block for the locals. His work during the remainder of the game was most excellent.
 Birmingham scored two runs in the third inning when Hickman gave up three hits and uncorked a wild pitch. Matthews lead off with single to right, but was forced out at second on Vaughans grounder to Hess Wilhelm beat out slow grounder toward third, advancing Vaughan to second. Hickman made a wild pitch moving both runners up peg. The squeeze" play was then effectively worked Vaughan starting in home with the pitch, and scored Molesworth laid down a neat bunt, on which he died at first while Wilhelm reached third. Gear singled to left and Wilhelm scored. Mont gomery retired the side, going out on a grounder to Evans.
 Another run was made by the Barons in the fourth spasm when Smith doubled to right and scored on Oylers Texas leaguer over second. The Pirates filled the bases with only one out in their half of the fourth inning. but a fast double play set them down without a run.

 Shreveport La, May 9.-6SpeciaD. An Pirateville take off their new straw hats to 'MattY' Matthews. who made connec- ton with one of Hackman's shoots in the twelfth inning, and sent the pig skin sailing over the left field fence for a home run, thereby winning the opening game of the Birmingham Shreveport se- ries by score of to 3.
 The contest was one of the warmest propositions that has ever been wit messed on the local ball yard. and never before in the history of baseball in this city has there been such a demonstration of enthusiasm that displayed by the two thousand spectators when Shreve- port tied the score in the last half of the ninth inning.
 Gordon Hickman pitted against his old teammates, and performed in most brilliant manner He was unfortunate, however in having hits punched on him in the third and four innings. when five safe swats sent three of the Barons across the counting station. During the remaining eight innings of play he al- lowed but four scattered hits, the last of which was Matthews home run drive. which put the finishing touches on the magnificent exhibition

How Can We Stop Wars?

A profoundly interesting editorial
on the above subject, which comes 10
our liable, leads us to rcprhfish the
following from our Autobiography
cal Sketches:
Ianswer: I believe it IS within
the power of the Christian Church
to stop almost every war. When the
next threatens, let the clergy of all
denominations meet III every city
and town, and petition Congress to
settle the dispute By arhisration.
Let every Clergyman ON the next
Sunday preach a SERMON or war
and then circulate in his parish a
petition against it. Tet great union
ayer-meetings be held in all our
cities and towns, 10 pray that the
war may be aw9ted; and Let Chris
tians of all nations be inviteo-by tele-
grams to join III that prayer.
Let every Christian wife and mo-
Their, when war threatens, wear some
emblem of mourning until the dan
ger is past. II these things were
done, think few politicians would
care to rise in Congress, to advocate
war.
When the united voices Of the
Christian Church shall demand peace
on earth. good will tomen, great an.
mics will be no loagcr nseded. and
Christmas chimes WIFI ring out srteh
melodies Us the wQEld has never
