 Before the close of the convention Miss Sallie Jones brought up the subject of q Confederate veterans home and it was decided that the committee having in charge the securing of the first Con federate White House. be instructed to look for a cottage which might do for d temporary home.
 Nothing could have exceeded the enthl- siasm of the daughters over these two especial works of the division. But alas! Both were doomed to languish The movement for preservation of the White House unfortunately became entangled in personal differences of prominent mem- bers of the division, and from that mo- ment success was impossible, for there is nothing truer than Limited we stand divided we fall'' After and during the Selma convention there was a systematic effort to abolish this as division work. At every convention thereafter a bitter fight was made against the preservation of this home. At last the White House committee, feeling that these struggles were endangering the struggles of their beloved division, as well as the ultimate success of preserving the White House, purposely absented themselves from the Demopolis convention, leaving the mem- bers perfectly free and unbiased to act The work was there abolished as division work. The story of that struggle is thrilling from beginning to end, filled with dramatic incidents, but it is too long for these pages and is buried with the past. That there is no bitterness in the division now over these differences is a matter of graduation and deep joy. AL though all are agreed that it is best that this movement is not in the dvison

there are now many formerly opposed to the work who are now lending their aid to the White House Association of Ala bama, which is still struggling to pre- serve to posterty this noble historic pile.
 The effort for the soldiers home was also abandoned by the division, but with unanimous and deep regret and many heartache, and only the advice of prominent veterans. Yet the daughters have ever upheld and assisted that noble veteran. the late lamented Col. J. M. Falkner, in his struggle for the soldiers home, and one of the dearest objects of their work today Is the aid they give to the hospital at Mountain Creek.
 At the Selma convention a systematic

 Too much, though, must not be told of all the Alabama division, U. D. C., has done and is contemplating. for on the 18th of this month the convention meets again in Birmingham after a period of 10 years. and those who attend its sessions will find out many things both of interest and profit.

The Elks popular baseball club
dedicated its new uniforms yester-
day and at the same time covered
itself with glory when 1t slipped
one over on the McClain team which
was alleged to be the champion
amateur aggregation of the city.
The game was close especially at
dts conclusion and with two down
in the ninth the A1cClain aggrega-
ticn came vey near scoring the run
which would have made the score
lock like twelve and twelve in
nobody's favor. But Harry Elliotts
curves were breaking nicely and
after striking two men out the in
ming was ended by an easy out at
third base. And thus the delightful
contest closed The score II to IL in
favor Of b. p. o. +,
The game was marked by many
|sensational features. The Elks used
four pitchers but finally settled
down TO No. again who managed
to stop the little batting bee which
the McClain nine had so recently
started The Elks made sixteen hits
and five errors while the McClain
nine had fourteen hits to their credit
with seven errors.
The work OF umpire Bobby An

he was compelled TO retire In the

Diggers Do Some Pretty Clouting
In second Contest Big Croud at
Mansfield on Boosters Day.

Mansfield, June 3.--(Staff Specially
With big AL Wilmot pitching all OF
the way the Diggers lost the first
and won the second Of a double head
er yesterday afternoon before big
crowd attracted to League park by
the two games and also by the Boost
ers' Day.
1t was a case of too much Bailey in
the first struggle, while Wilmot
was not given the support that his
flinging deserved. The medic was in
his best form OF the year and had the
Diggers guessing from the start until
the close. Though there were sew
eral chances for our boys to count,
they were able to make but one con-
nection and that was in the third
frame when Farrell singled, Wolfe
racrifccd and rHewie" Tate came
along with the proper stunt, single
10 center, and Farrell counted.
Hughey pilfered bu; Bailey whitfield
ODay.
Mansheld's side of the story Is not
so easily told Though blanked in
the first two frames they made val
liant tries for tally. With two put
away in the opener Nathay and
Channell laced out basers. Flood
grounded to Wolfe VINO let the ball
get away from him and the bricks
were full. Wilmot was equal to the
emergency and retired Spratt. Brey-
mailer walked in the second with one
put to a slumbcr. Bailey singled
but Billy King handled the bangs OF
Jewell and Biery and the side was
retired. 1t was in the third that the
balloon went mp and Mansfield put
three over though they should have
had but one. Channel singled to left
and Flood followed with a double to
the same place, scoring Channell.
Spratt was out Wolfe to first and
when Reynolds grounded to Wolfe
the side should have been retired but
the ball. got away from the short
stop and Flood counted Reynolds
stole second and Farrell and Tate got
mixed up in going after a long drive
of Breymaier's with the desult that
Hezzy secured attriple and Reynolds
scored Bailey elded 1t by sending
a grounder to King. After that
frame the Tigers exhibited mucn
more ginger than they mad during
the first part OF the contest. Mans

of too much work for the pitcher was
as strong at the finish as at the start
of the first game.
There worked for Mansfield Albert
King, a pitcher sent to Tigertown by
Manager Breckenridge, OF Akron.
But Albert, of Akron, was far from
the mystery to his opponents that
was Albert of Diggertown. The way
the Diggers handed them back to the
pitcher was q snam ana once the
contest. was started there was little
doubt as to the finai outcome.
Though Farrell led OF with a SIM
gle in the frst--a very good sign for
the Diggers-there was nothing doing
for Marion. Wolfe went out trying
to sacrifice and Farrell was nlpped in
an attempt to swipe. Lotshaw, who
replaced Ketter at nrst beat out an
inield hit in the second with two
down and took second on Kings er-
ror but was not advanced.
The third was where some things
happened. Lunskey raped one past
Tim Flood for a safety and Wilmot
sacrificed. Farrell cracked a safe
one into right and Luskey counted
.Farran stole second, Wolfe walked
Billy Kings pretty single to left
scored Farrell and King took second
when Mathay let the ball get away
from him. When Ttate hit to Flood
Iand was thrown out at first, King
was caught off second and in the
play Wolfe was caught when he tried
to make home.
Two had been put away in the
next when Wilson doubled and
Luskey followed with timely sim
gle to center scoring FREDDIE. The
Diggers kept digging and Farrell in
the next drew pass, Wolfe sacri-
feed and the pinktop counted when
King got pretty baser in the mid.
die field. Tate followed with an.
other lace to left but when O'Day hit
to Jewell both the manager and Tate
were doubled.
Farrell opened up in the seventh
with his third safe drive, single tc
center. Wolfe was there again with
a nifty s1crifice and King lifted to
Spratt. Tate raped double against
the left field fence and Farrell COM
,pleted the loop.
Mansield's first count was not de-
served. Channel raped out a clean
single 70 Tate who allowed the ball
to slip through his legs to the fence
and ere he had recovered It, Chan
nell had completed the circuit. The
hit was scored as a home run but
was nothing more than a single.
That second count of the Tigers
came in the sixth. Jewell singled to
center and Biery lifted TO Tate
Mathay raped one over O'Day's head
and Jewell went to second. Chan
nell then hit to O'Day who threw "a

Wolfe kept the sphere travelling
