arg body which called b itself n consti-

predicted that the instrument would pro-;
yoke more litigation and cause more con-
fusion than any organic law ever frame
IL this country. That prediction has been
made good by the record which the cons Con
sstitution is making. Confusion upon. con-
fusion and muddle after middle have

possible for the legi slat tive Il bod y hlch

become mere hgurehead, many Of the

Doubt as to the outcome of the game, because of the apparently evenness of the strength of the two. is causing numerous wagers, and 1t is estimated that by the time Of the game, several thou sand dollars will have been placed The bets are even so far. no one as yet being bold enough to offer odds
 As usual, groundless rumors are floating to the effect that several men of the Au- burn team are out of the game, and prospects there are very gloomy: that one or more of the strongest members of the Alabama aggregation have been pro- tested against, and that there was doubt as to whether or not they would be in the lineup on the occasion of the game The reports from The Age Herald's corre- spondents at the two institutions how ever. are to the effect that the men are in perfect physical condition, and that the game will be the hardest fought. the most spectacular, and the closest of the southern season.
 As published yesterday, tickets for the game are on sale at various places throughout the city. It Is certainty that the attendance will be immense. Nu- nerous visitors from other sections of the state are preparing to turn their faces towards the Magic City. The Birming- ham Railway, Light and Power company will operate tweve-minute schedule to the park, and the problem of transporta- ton is solved. The game win begin promptly at o'clock

STONE TRAINING
 FOR BIG MATCH
GRIFFIN EXPECTED IN BIRMING- HAM ToMORROW-WRE AT JEFFERSON THURSDAY TO BE EXCEPTIONALLY INTERESTING.

The wrestling match between Charles Stone and Thomas Griffin, which will be held in Birmingham on the evening of November 22, promises to be one of the most interesting mat games ever held in Birmingham.
 The match will be for the best three falls in five, and catch-as-catch-can style will prevail Stone has been in Birming- ham for several days, and is an immense man, tipping the beam at PIG, and stand ing higher than six feet in his stockings. Griffin is well known here, and that he will fight for every inch of ground is ad- mitted His former record is a splendid one and there are not a few who are wagering that he will win from Stone, in spite of the handicap of about forty pounds.
 Since the original publication of this match in the Age-Herald, lovers of the mat game have discussed little else. It has been some time since a wrestling match was pulled off in Birmingham, and break in the dullness will be wei comed.
