Asylum.
Said the Judge:
s.The asylum, under the management
Of my old friend, DR.. Clarence Pierson,
is one Of the finest institutions Of its kind
not only in the South, but venture to say
in the world. In his management and
in his considerable care and gentle treat
ment of those placed in his charge, he
has made the Jackson Asylum home
of rest and recreation, not prison.

The New SCh0olhouSe

Pursuant to call of Mayor G. z.
Williams, meeting was held at
the Courthouse last Monday night
TO devise ways and means for the
erection of new pubic shool
building. The meeting was pre-
sided over by Judge Thos. NJ.
Burns, who advised those present
to make liberal arrangements for
the erection of a suitable building.
After considering the question, it
was decided to recommend the
erection of a modern two. story
brick building, on the site of the
present school, thoroughly
equipped with all modern appll-
ances, to cost about $4,000.
The Town Council will furnish
the funds for the building, with
the aid Of the public.
A committee, composed of w.
G. Evans, Whit. Riggs, q. l..
Smith, j. s. Jones and g. v.
Quave, the two latter being mem
bers OF the Council, was appointed
to solicit funds In aid of the worthy
cause. Several good contributions
were made At the close Of the meet
ing, and there is no doubt the pub
lie will respond literally, and we
will in short time have a school
building that will be an honor and
credit to the town.
Another mass meeting will be
held at the Courthouse on Satur.
day night. June %. See notice in
this issue.

NEW ORLEANS WILL
HAVETWO DERBIES
FAIRGROUNDS WILL HAVE THE
FASTEST TRACK, BUT THE
FIELDS ENGAGED ARE OF ABOUT
THE SAME CLASS.

New Orleans, March 16.-For the first
time in its racing history, New Orleans
will witness tomorrow the decision of
two big stakes-the Crescent City derby
and the City Park derby. There is no
great difference in the money value of
the two events and the fields engaged are
about of the same class. The Fair Grounds
will. however, present the fastest track
fthe two, and perhaps on this account,
the best contest The distance is the same
in each race, mile and an eighth.
The derby fields, as they stand tonight,
are:

AUBURN TEAM SPOILS
VERY PRETTY CONTEST

The Auburn team last night spoiled
what was otherwise a most interesting
and holly contested game of basketball
at the Athletic club by leaving the field
when the score stood IA to IA. They re-
fused to continue playing, and in spite of
the arguments of the Auburn alumni and
other friends of the team Captain Frank
Jones stood firm in his position not to
let the play proceed, SO Referee Ed War
rem was forced to give the game to the
Athletic club by score. of ? to 0.
It was the old. old story of alleged one
sided officiating. Captain Jones claimed
that he and his men were not getting a
fair deal from the officials, and hence
his strenuous action. From the viewpoint
of an unbiased spectator it seemed that
the Auburn boys fully deserved all of
the eighteen fouls that were called on
them, for, like all college basketball
teams, they play rougher and show the
effects of their football training. The
officials called twelve fouls on Birming
ham, or two-thirds as many as on Au-
burn.
The game throughout was most excit-
ing, as both teams were evenly matched
and neither team was ever over or
points ahead. The first half ended s to
in favor of Birmingham A few minutes
before the end of the game Birmingham
was IA to Auburns r.. but some Auburn
man made a pretty pass to Woodruff,
who made a basket and tied the score,
amid intense excitement Of the spectators
Time was called Immediately afterward,
and under the rules playing should have
continued until one side scored 2 points,
hut at this time Auburn's withdrawal

There was little doing yesterday in the
baseball line except the affixing of sigma
lures of Pitcher Hickman to a Birming-
ham contract. Hickman is now a Coal
Baron and will play with the local club
throughout the season of 1906
Just what the new pitcher will do is
not known to the local fans but be-
cause of the fact that he is a Blrmng-
ham boy large number of the fans will
venture the opinion that he will make
good in more ways than one.
Hickman will be in the practice games
in the future, and it is very likely he
will take part in the game this after
noon.
In the game this afternoon 1t is the
intention of the New York management
to use the best pitchers that are within
reach. Manager Vaughan has the same
idea in view and it is more than likely
there will be something doing before the
game Is over.
Just who will be used in the box by
Manager Griffith has not yet been an
nounced but Manager Vaughan intends
to use Pitchers Clark and Wilhelm 1t is
even probable that Pitcher Utter or Pitch
er Billiard will be used in case the SER
vices of either are needed.
