Birmingham, Ala. Nov. 4.-Presi-
dent Taft, in an address here yester-
day again expressed his good will
toward the south While he was do
ing so, an old, gray bearded man in
the crowd called out:
Cob bless you. We all love you"
The president ST. IL replied:
That reminds n q in old quo
tation: 1T might b. e.. r-h. to dis
semble your love, but why did you
kick me down stairs"
But l have no fault to find on
that score. The fact that you had so
little to do with putting me where
am makes me appreciate the warmth
and sincerity of your reception all the
more"
The president urged for support in
carrying out the Roosevelt policy to
bring about better conditions Of hon
esty and integrity in business and
public affairs without regard to party
lines. 4
Taft Fvades an Answer.
The president referred once to the
proposition to amend the constitution
by providing in it for an indefinite
continuance Of state wide prohibition.
He promptly was asked how he stood
on the question.
Il am not an Alabaman," he re-
Piled. amid laughter. "and I am in
somewhat the position of Brother Fox,
who, when he was called upon to de-
eide a case between a lion and some
other ferocious beast, protested that
he had bad cold and had entirely
lost his sense of SMELL"
As the president was about to enter
his automobile to go to his train, he
passed between two lines of veterans
-confederates on one side and G. A.
r. men on the other. He stopped to
shake hands alternately with each
one.
A confederate soldier said:
"Mr. President, you have captured
the secessionists, the Kuklux and the
cranky democrats, all of them"
"Well, that's a whole lot" smilingly
replied the president.
Comes TO Defense of Golf.
In one Of his speeches here
the president sought to defend golf
from the charge that it is a rich mans
game
Toe game OF golf l am not only
fond of myself" he said, but I am
serious in thinking that its general
spread through the country is a real
in the matter of hygiene and
and long life to men be-
tween so and 10.
During the last presidential cleo
ton it was heralded in the newspap-
ers as being a game indicating aris-
tocratc leaning, that was supposed to
injure one in the standing of the
plain people as Lincoln called them,
l am hopeful now that the virtue of
golf as a trainer of character and as
a leveler instead of an exalter Of peo-
pie will be well understood

NOTES ANNIVERSARY
Rev. c. Ernest Smith Reviews the
Progress of Seven Years.
Pastor Cites Growth of ST. Thomas
Episcopal Church from $50
to 932 Communicates.

Rev. c. Ernest Smith yesterday cele-
brated his seventh anniversary as pas
tor OF St Thomas Episcopal Church At
the morning service instead OF the regu-
lar sermon he gave a review Of the seven
years OF his reCtOrship. To accept his
present position Rev. DR.. Smith resigned
from the rectorship Of st. Michael and
All Angels Church. OF Baltimore, which
had the largest congregation Of any
church in the South.
AT that time" he said, 1t was the
day Of small things az St Thomas
Church. The congregation numbered only
$50 COMMITMENTS and the debt was crush
ing, amounting 10 S72,J0O in all. 1t must
be remembered. however. that but a short
while before that the whole neighbor-
hood was either a green field or a waste
place and a mere handful Of persons had
built and were supporting the church.
Il could not but be impressed with the
splendid sacrifices which had been made
by those early members, who so coura-
geously saddled themselves with such
vast debt
Great changes have been wrought in
the last seven years. The $50 communi-
cants have become go. and there have
been ls5 baptisms. S47 combinations, and
"a marriages within that period Contri-
buttons amounting to $780, 400 have been
laid upon the altar. OF this sum $4,000
has been used in paying current expenses
and in improving the church. $4,000 do
mated to various charitable enterprises.
and S65,O 900 expended in paying Off debts.
Much Of the credit for this great
progress in financial matters must be
credited 10 our treasurer. A. =. Cren-
shaw. who has ably seconded me in
everything I have yet undertaken.
mot only has the church been practl-
cally reconstructed in the last seven
years. but the new pipe organ. costing
$4,000 which was ordered several months
ago. Will soon be IN place, and the neces-
sary funds are even now on hand"
In conclusion the rector paid a high
tribute 10 the vestry Of the church, which.
he said. had made II possible for him to
carry out the plans which have resulted
so satisfactorily. The vestry is composed
Of Brig. Gen. c. A Woodward. Brig. Gen.

day OF the Maryland Jockey Club meet
ing especially good.
The association has not had such a
fine programme I'm many years as that
offered for the wind-up of a most sue
cessful fan racing term.
The revival Of the Bowie Cup is much
IN the right spirit Of sport. and the pres
ence Of Fitz Herbert gives the event
the necessary quality Of a great race
Fitz Herbert is believed to be the best
horse in the country, and horsemen who
know the conditions abroad have an idea
that the son OF Ethelbert could beat the
best in any country.
Bowie Cup Distance.
Fitz Herbert packs Jos pounds in the
Bowie Cup, and it is the general opinion
that he could take up much more weight
and beat anything that might start
against him.
The Bowie Cup is two miles, and Fltz
Herbert has shown that he can so a
distance I'm good company.
Oiambala is not entered for the Bowie
Cup. and this is about the only horse
that might have given Fitz Herbert an
argument for the big race. Sending him
TO Baltimore for the Bowie disturbed
the plans Of some owners who wished 90
