first three He has been in baseball
for IL years and has been a star near
ly every season Of that time.
In that time he has earned nearly
100000. The veteran twirler tells be-
low few things that may explain why
he can pitch and win at 40 years of
age:
Seventeen years of pitching may
seem rather long to the average fan
today, but / want to state plainly that
it is not too long, and that expect to
stretch it few more years yet. 1 am

MAKES AN APPEAL
 FOR CHINESE FUND
FAMINE PEOPLE ARE SATISFYING THE RELENTLESS CRAVINGS OF HUNGER WITH HUMAN FLESH.

The Rev. ". H. Forsyth missionary of the Presbyterian church, is here attend ing the general assembly, and has with him official facts concerning the awful famine in China. He comes from Korea, but Is in close touch with the mission aries of the stricken country. He says Sl will save life, and s will save a whole family. Here Is a letter telling of the horrible conditions:
 Shanghai, China. April, 1907. "Klopseh, New York:
 Approaching period of severest pinch. Authenticated instances of corpses ex- humed and eaten. Foreign relief working effectively maintaining whole districts un- til harvest"
 The terrible cry for bread from the thousands of starving Chinese comes again and again to our ears. The awful vision is before us of mothers killing their children and children killing their aged parents, rather than see them suf- fer the torture of death by starvation. and there is even the still darker picture of these poor people for whom Christ died drive nto satisfy the fierce relentless gnawings of hunger with human flesh. (Dr. J. W. Davis in April Missionary, D.. 1SO. Kings 6:2S0
 The Age-Herald has already sent a sum to this cause that was subscribed in an- swer to the appeal of Mrs. Price, a Bir- mingham woman who is on the scene, and will transmit any further subscriptions which may be sent in by interested per sons.

LIBRARY BOARD IS MATURING PLANS
Will Have Report Ready in Few
 Days
OUTLINE OF THE BENEFITS
pr. Parke, Vice President, Says Move ment Is Growing In Favor Every Day-Quotes From We'll
 Known Authority.

The executive board of the Free Pub lie Library is hard at work and the en- thusiasm regarding this movement con- tinues to grow. The board hopes to be ready within the next few days to give out the plans, but in the meantime they do not want the general public to forget that the movement is on foot and gaining headway every day.
 pr. Parke vice president of the asso- citation, is very enthusiastic over the build ing of the library and is very much im- pressed with the recent remarks of J. l.. Harrison on "The Modern Library Move ment," from which he quotes as follows;
 And now what Is the modern library movement? It Is a movement to increase by every possible means the accessibility of books, to stimulate their reading, and to create demand for the best. It's motive Is helpfuness; It's scope, instrue- tion and recreation; it's purpose. the en- lightenment of all. It's aspiration, still greater usefulness. It Is distinctive movement, because 1t recognizes as never before the inIinlte possibilities of the pub lie library, and because it has done every thlngin its power to develop these possi- bilities.
 The education of an individual is CO., incident with the life of that individual. It is carried on by the influences and appliances of the family, vocation, gov ernment, the church, the press, the school and the library. The library is unseere- tarian and hence occupies field inde- pendent of the church.
 Were 1t not for the library, the educa- ton of the masses would, in most cases, l cease when the doors of the school swung on them for the last time; but 1t keeps the doors wide open, and is in the truest sense of the word the university Of the people. The library Is as much part or the educational system of a community as the public school, and Is coming more and more to be regarded with the same respect and supported fin the same danger ous manner
 .'The public library of today Is an ac- tive. potential force, serving the present and silently helping to develop the eivili- zatlon of the future. Tho spirit or the modern library movement Is thoroughly catholic. thoroughly progressive, and thoroughly in sympathy with the people IL believes that the true function Of the library is to serve the people, and that the only test of success Is useruiness'

CAMP HILL SCHOOL
 FILLS GREAT WANT
Price of One Automobile Will
 Educate 200 Boys
PLACE GRANTED FOR ROOM
Last Year 75o Boys and Girls Were Refused Admission Because of Lecture Rooms and
 Dormltorles.

Lyman Ward, principal of Camp Hill Industrial school, is in Birmingham and yesterday told many interesting facts in connection with his school.
 This school Is unique In it's eharacter," said MT. Ward. "It is founded on the same principles upon which the Univer- sity of Virginia was founded by Thomas Jefferson. The setudents are a self governing body the school a small repub- lie within itself. It is founded upon the principle that the child should be trained for all the walks of life, Hand, head and heart should be trained for the high est utility. At this institution the girls are taught the use of the needle and the art of domestic science and lessons in hy- giene. The boys are taught agriculture, stock farming, dairy farming, brick making and fruit raising The boys hold councils to consider the best methods for carrying on their various vacations at the school. They are thus trained thor oughly for good citizenship. They ac- tually make their own brick saw their own timber and manufacture their own furniture. They have built their own houses, dormitories and school buildings.
 "The school had no resources at it's founding save enterprise, pluck and push, and it's watchword has always been to root out illiteracy and ignorance from our rural districts and to plant cul- ture and character. The plant of the in- stitution is now valued at $s0,O0O, upon which there is a debt of $1O,00O It re- quires only $50 per annum to give one boy or girl the advantages of this school. Last year 750 boys and girls were refused admission for lack of adequate lecture rooms and dormitories.
 Judge Feagin is am ardent supporter of this institution. He said: This school has a claim upon Birmingham and Bir- mingham have a claim upon 1t in sending her young men and women there to be trained. Millions of dollars are being given by the people of the north to edu- cate the negro In the state of Alabama, while the white children of the rural l districts are being neglected. Shall they longer be suffered to grow up in ignor- ance and illiteracy for want of educa- tages? Many of the citizens of Birming- ham are spending $1O,OOO a year for the pleasure of riding i'm an automobile, Ten thousand dollars invested in the Camp Hill school would give 200 boys training for year.
 l MT. Ward, whose heart and soul is in the work, is in Birmingham for the pur- pose of raising S5OO0 for the school He thinks there should be many men in Bir- mingham who will be as willing to hell the white children of the state obtain an education as the people in the nortf are willing to assist the negro.
 Alex T. London of Birmingham wil deliver the commencement address al Camp Hill Industrial school on June 6. 1 NEW ILLUSTRATIONS.

TYSON STILL AT LARGE.
Brookside Officer Is Still Living, But
 Is In Serious Condition.

Felix Itson, the 1s year old youth who shot Marshal Gregory in the face Tuesday at Brookside, has not yet been appre- hended. The report received by Sherin Higdon's office Tuesday afternoon was to the effect that Gregory had been shot and killed. Yesterday morning, however the office was advised that Gregory had been shot in the face, but was still living.
 The deputy sheriffs are still on ltson's trail and have gotten close enough to him to make him leave one of his shoes and his hat.
 Itson had been drunk and disorderly all day Tuesday and Marshal Gregory had gone to his home to arrest him. AS he anproached the house Itson opened fire on him with shotgun, loaded with buckshot. He was shot in the face and is in a very serious condition.
