 Last night in Clark Hall, Mir. Louis Spencer Daniel. the American charac- ter artist, kept a large crowd thor oughly entertained for two hours and a half with a we'll selected repertoire of sketches which he rendered in his lnimitable style. MT. Daniels told of his early life on one of Tennessee's perpendicular farms, where he made the acquaintance of Ash, Mary and Mandy, some of the characters who figure conspicuously in his negro dia- lect stories.
 This morning at the General As- sembly, Dr. Erwin Craighead, editor of The Mobile Register, delivered thoughtful and scholarly address to the Summer School on Public opinion in School and state" The theme of Dr. Craighead's address was that the basis of all good government is healthy and well moulded public opin- ion, and that 1t lies within the power of the schools to form public opinion by educating the students into ctti- zenship which realizes its obligation to take a vital interest in the anairs of the State.
 After discussing in a thorough way the relationship between government and public opinion and pointing out the duties of the citizen to the state. the speaker showed how, in pracu- cal way, the school can make useful citizens of the students He said that this could not be accomplished by merely teaching civics, but that 1t must be done by instituting self gov- ernment in the schools. and theraby bringing the student to Feel early m life executive responsibility

EASILY ACCOMPLISHED BY THE
 OYSTER CHANDELIERS.
Phillips and Hall Are the Opposing TwtrIers and Former Easily Out Glasses His Opponent
 On the Slab.

Mobile, July -tSpecia1)-Like taking candy from child would but mildly express the sentiment of the five hundred who saw Mobile defeat Jackson by a score of to 2.
 Phillips and Hall were the opposing pitchers. The former appeared in far different class to his adversary though to his credit, Hall was not at all responsible for his clubs deg feat. Earle handled the indicator and gave entire satisfaction. 9
 With two strike-outs and fly to right, the visitors went out in the first. Hits. stolen bases and two er- TOTS allowed the Oystermen five scores in their half. In the last of the third. Leidy scored on a hit, a passed ball, wild pitch and Millers drive to cen- Ire.
 In the fourth the visitors got one over. Robinson hit and advanced on Jeffrie's hit in the infield, advanced on Stewards sacrifice and scored on Gettingers fielder's choice.
 Tn the fifth Mobile got another run. Leidy hit safe and tried for home on Wagner's two sacker but was caught at the plate. Wagner stole third and then went home on Halls stupid play.

ATLANTA SCORED SHUTOUT
 IN THE FIRST GAME HERE Contest Was Won in the Seventh Inning Walsh, Mulrs New Pitcher, Made
 His Debut.

When the pocket edition of first baseman, the abbreviated Mir. Fox, tal- lied on Jim Archer's fly to right, which looked foul by nearly foot, the first. game of the Atlanta series went to Billy Smiths people by score of l to O at Athletic Park yesterday afternoon.
 Walsh. the new recruit on Mulrs pitching stan. made his bow before the local fans, and from his work yester day he will prove a valuable acquisition to the Climbers. He handles himself we'll, fields his position well and has good control with lots of speed and change of pace that will help him won- derfuliy Yesterday he made good from the jump, striking out Dick Crozier and Otto Jordan. the first two men up. He gave one base on balls In the first and one in the eighth inning. striking ont six batters. Up to the seventh inning only two hits had been made of him, Dick Crozicr getting them both. One in the third and one in the sixth.
 After two were out in the sixth in- ming hard rain fell and lasted for some thirty minutes. so when the sev- enth came couple of hits were punched and Archer's foul was called fair. making three hits in the inning and winning the game.
 Zeller had a bunch of horseshoes wrapped in several thicknesses around his neck and after the game he should have heartily shaken hands with him self He gave enough bases on balls. five of them, for the Climbers to have won the game easily. but the Climbers were unable to hit him at sthe right time.
 Reckless base running threw away 8 run once or twice for the Climbers. runners being on second and third sew eral times. Another good chance they had of scoring was when Mullaney hit safe in the second inning. McCann bunted but Zellets got all mixed up with himself In trying to pick up the ball. Perry bunted and Mullarey was thrown out by Zeller at third, Me- Aces struck out and McCann was out stealing third.
 The first chance the Climbers had of scoring was in life first when Houtz walked and got to second on Rusch's drive to center, stealing third on smiths, error. Schwartz hit one that sid smith got aud threw Houtz out at

the plate. Apperious was out on fly to Billy Smith and the double steal was tried. Schwartz starting to second and drawing the throw and Busch dashing for the plate. Jordan returned the ball to Archer in time to get Busch at the plate.
 In the first of the seventh Billy Smith was out on fly to Schwartz. Whitey Morse hit safe to right but Me Aces threw him out stealing second !. Fox hit one that Busch let get by him. Syd Smith hit safe to right and on Archer's fcul fly to right Fcx. scored, Zeller ending 1t with a fly to Busch

Broken Telegraph Wires of SantO DO-
 minEo Tell story.
 Washir gton. July 12.-Broken telc graph wires between Monti Christi and Cape Haytien. the cable terminus in Santo Domingo. are reported today by Commander South erland. an almost in- variable sign of revolutionary trouble there.
 The commander says the captain of one of his gunboats reports that Jim inez had not yet arrived at Monti Christi from San Juan but 1t appears that the revolutionists are expected to receive him as their chosen leader. IL is understood that conditions remained unchanged at Monti Christi with the government forces in possession of the town and the insurgents in the bush but no fighting is reported.
 The United States cruiser Columbia sailed yesterday from Guantanamo Cuba, fov Monti Christi where it will reinforce the fleet of American gun boats in keeping order in Dominican ports which the revolutionists are threatening.
