The winning mare carried away for her owner purse of s75OO. and 60 per cent of the gate re- ceipts.
 The spectators were disappointed when it was announced that Tiverton had been withdrawn. the bay gelding having de- veloped some lameness. The weather conditions were not favorable. Sweet Marie drew the pole. and the horses were away on the first score. Alta Mcdonald took Sweet Marie to the front. leading by a clean length at the quarter.

There are only twelve more games that the Barons will have to play out of the east. Unless Harrys men go into the air. and flap their wings helplessly on this next western trip the local fans can see no reason why they cannot win the rag. If they split even on the next western trip, Birmingham has a better chance to land the pennant than any other club in the league.
 In this connection, it is pointed out, that the chance of the Barons losing their heads in the west Is very slim It is all most a cinch that they will return to Birmingham with as many victories tied to their belt as the number of defeats dropped in the west, Therefore, the local fan, who desires to see this burg fly the brilliant rag of battle, can say softly to himself that Birmingham has a better chance than any other to land the trophy and that it is now an even bet that they will do so Of course. this statement ls made without considering any unexpected disaster that might befall the local forces. The strike of half of the men, the di- rect mutiny of the others, might subvert all good intentions, and cause to go awry the well laid schemes and plans of Man ager Harry Vaughn
 It is now tenerally admitted that Nash vile and Little Rock are out of the run hing. This leaves six clubs, only, from which to choose the winner. These six clubs may all be counted in, for just where they will land Is an uncertainty. In the east Birmingham is foremost, with Atlanta and Montgomery contesting. Bir- mingham has established such lead over the Legislators that that bunch is fearful ly handicapped and the even gait employ -t,e. by the locals makes It practically impossible that they will be overtaken- Montgomery need not be considered uh- der any circumstances, pennant propa- bility until one other first class pitcher.

"ReinfOrced Concrete"
Baltimore American.)

Baltimore's experience in the use of
the reinforced concrete style of con-
struction for buildings has become an
object-lesson to the country. During
the city's rebuilding the trade journals
of the country called attention to the
extent to which Reinforced construction
was used. Until it has been successfully
refuted the claim in behalf of Baltimore
stands that it in this respect takes the
lead of American cities. The New York
Times makes the giving of a contract
for the erection in the metropolis of an
eleven-story reinforced structure, sub
iect for comment and remarks that the
building will be "a novelty in New York
architecture. The novelty of this sort
of architecture has quite worn off here,
and while Baltimore cannot point to as
lofty concrete constructed building as
the one to be erected in New York, 1t
nevertheless possesses today the tallest
reinforced concrete building, and the
handsomest in America. A new apart
ment house that has been built upon
leading thoroughfare has this distinc-
ton. 1t is not necessary for the Times
to refer to the opinions of German engi-
neers in confirmation of the merits of
this style of architecture. Here in Bal
timore are to be found scores of struct-
ures of this sort built for mercantile and
office purposes, and which combines
artistic attraction with security from
fire and oxidation, from which the steel
frames not thus protected may suffer.
Concrete construction is amenable to
distinctive and individual treatment,
and in this respect as elastic as any
other form of material.

The Inland Canal.
memphis Commercial-Appeal. }

memphis Commercial-Appeal.)
1t seems probable that something
tangible is to be done toward estab-
fishing the long-talked of inland water
ways from Boston to the Gulf of Mex
leo. The full project as outlined by
the Philadelphia Bulletin extends
'from Boston by canal across Cape
Cod to connection with Long Island
Sound, and thence by series of artifi-
cial cuts connecting the natural chan
nels to Savannah and eventually, by a
canal across Florida, to the Gulf of
Mexico, thus enabling our coastwise
commerce not only to evade any enemy
that may attack US, but, what is more
to the point in the estimation of many,
to avoid the stormy passage Of Cape
Hatteras and the dangers on the peri
lous coast of Massachusetts. F"
The plan for these inland waterways
has been surveyed and found quite feas-
ible. 1t has met with approval from
government sources from time to time,
but has never been pushed to anything
like active construction. However, a
commission has just been appointed
with authority to get to work upon an
important link in the great canal. 1t is
no less than opening a channel between
the Chesapeake and Delaware bays,
which will doubtless promote and ex-
pedite commerce between Philadelphia
and Baltimore.
Doubtless when this small link shall
have demonstrated its value, Congress
can be easily and readily induced to
build the other links.

Different Kinds of hereea.
cleveland Plain Dealer. J

A writer in recent periodical comes
to the defense of the hero of the cheap
novel, popurlarly known as dime novel,
sometimes alluded to as yellow fiction,
and occasionally described as belonging
to the blood-and- thunder school The
writer finds in this heroic parsonage
qualities that lift him high above the
hero of the sociological or society novel
of today. The old-time hero was good
fighter, and he fought fair. He came
out into the open and his victims were
either desperados or Indians. He was
clean, and he was honest and chivalrous,
and if he spilled great deal of blood it
was blood that nobody regretted, and it
always bore an unmistakble odor of
stage paint. When he triumphed it
was at the expense of villiany and dis
honor, and might become right, and
virtue shook off the shackles and arose
radiant and beautiful Not so with the
society hero of today. He hasn't any
hampering scruples. The old-fashioned
code of morals doesn't bother him. He's
a dangerous man to let loose in the do
nestle purlieus. He has habits that
are delightfully."- bad from the point of
view of his feminine admirers. He is a
dwadling idler, breaker-up of house
holds, and destroyer of home life, and
with it all has a fascinatingly hypnotic
and altogether unmanly personality.
AS between these heroes, the defender
of the cheaper sort finds much to COM
mend his choice. He holds that the bad
influence of the Admirable Crichton of
the yellow covers is small indeed, COM
pared to that of the idler of the draw
ing-rooms. And there appears to be a
good deal of truth in the contention.

A RIDICULOUS MIDDLE.
a true benevolent

When the present so-called Constitu-
ton was fastened upon the people of
Virginia by that partisan and revolution
airy body which called itself Constitu-
tional Convention, it was confidently
predicted that the instrument would
provoke more litigation and cause more
confusion than any organic law ever
framed in this country. That predic-
ton has been made good by the record
which the Constitution is making. Con-
fusion upon confusion and muddle after
muddle have come. The powers of the
General Assembly have become so linn
tied and its authority so vague that it is
almost impossible for the legislative
body which represents the people to eff
feet any intelligent or useful legisla-
ton. In many important matters our
Legislature has become mere figure
head, many of the old-time preroga-
tives being vested in the Governor, the
judiciary and the Corporation Comis-
sion. But the most ridiculous and
dangerous confusion that has been
produced is that caused by the creation
of the Corporation Commission. That
body or tribunal, composed of three
men, has been invested with ministerial,
executive, judicial and legislative au-
thority. The fruits which are now be-
ing gathered from such foolish provis-
ion in the Constitution are unwhole-
some enough to startle the intelligent
Virginia citizen who is not blind par
tisan of the Democracy.
This Constitution was made without
the consent of the people and in way
that necessarily has made it breeder
of vice. Even Democrats are now be-
ginning to demand that it be amended
in many particulars; but some day the
vicious instrument will be cast aside
and the lawfully elected and obedient
representatives of the people will make
a new Constitution that will be just
and intelligent one.

They claim that the Republicans are
