are aware, too, of the damage their cries can cause in making the baseball atmos- phere tainted for several seasons They are. therefore. gamely sitting in the boat and preparing for better season next year.
 It is the case of the thoroughbred un- iinehingly bearing the tearing and the ripping of the steel
 There is no barn yard poltroon writing baseball on a Memphis newspaper.
 As nearly every one in the south knows. l have never admired Charlie Babb-that is. the man. Of course, l have appre- eiated his worth as a ball player and as a manager
 But now 1 sympathze with him from the bottom of my heart. He is up against the hardest proposition, 1t is probable, in the history of the Southern league. They are roasting him numerically from the stands. The faithful are very few. The "tin horns are in their glory. and are indulging in those remarks which are highly personal Babbs team is shot to pieces. IL cannot hope to win. There is dissension in the ranks. The players are disgusted But 1t is necessary to get in uniform every afternoon and play a game. It is hard but compulsory.
 Don't you know Babb would rejoice were the end or the season today lie has been sufficiently humiliated.
 But do not be deceived into believing that Tom Mccullough was the brain of Babb. Babb Is pretty wise himself, and needs no aid under ordinary circum- stances that Mccullough is capable of giving.
 Manager Molesworth certainly leaped into the limelight this afternoon with his willow He got a couple in the first game one for two, and in the second hit safely four times in succession, another being for a couple He went out again trying to stretch a single into double.
 At the present time the team Is in ex celle.nt shape. With Molesworth hitting and the pitchers going finely, the Barons will be hard to beat by any other team in the league.
 They are playing with splendid abandon. They are hitting the ball and running bases finely.

faded away like quarter horses and came again like steady plodders
 The Barons also passed Quiesser some hot coals the first round. Ellam was based, and bags were pifflicated on sin gles to left by Molesworth and Rafts. McGlvray tore off a sizzling grounder but Wheeler made a difficult stop and a mean throw, considering the angle in time to retire Ellam at the pan. The Turtles infeld laid back and the play was justified for Gyglis warm shot to Babb brought a double death.
 The Turtles spurred in their half. double by Babb and single by Crans- ton chasing a run over the pan. Quies- ser found himself again in the three on-none out" hole in the second, but might have escaped disaster save for dripped peg by Ed Hurlburt. Henline opened with a double Raub scratched a safety sending him to third. Bowen slammed to Babb and the manager paid so much attention to holding Noah at third that his peg to first pulled OLeary from the bag and all hands were safe. Schopp punched to Cranston and Wee" Willies perfect throw to the pan ar- rived a few seconds ahead of the runner but Ed dropped the throw. Ellam's long fly to Baerwald tailed Bowen and Moley's ripping single put the third man across.
 The Final Rally.
 Schopp and Quiesser then settled and there were no opportunities for more tal- lies until the fifth. Moleys double start ed things after one was down. He went to third on ''Wild' Bills out. Coulson made the mistake of playing close in for McGilvray and his long fly, ordinarily a cinch, went for two-bagger, Moley counting.
 Tn tho sixth the Turtles made their last desperate rally. Cranston started with double, watched Wheeler fly to Raftis, but counted on O'Leary's safe poke. Shields anatomy stopped pitched ball, but Hurlburt and Quiesser flied to Hen- line

Ba7Ons Going Finely And
 Some Wehsy Impressions
BY BILL AK.

Memphis, June -(Special.) Bar ons are doing very nicely, thank you. They have eopped the first three games of the present road trip, and tonight they are so chesty that it is hard to imagine team which could beat them.
 While Memphis is gallantly holding down the cellar brigade, and while the team, shot to pieces, is demoralized be- yond redemption, the Barons turned a very neat trick in walking away with every game. They are now in fine spirits and every one believes that a showing will be made on the present precarious journey
 Incidentally, the Barons have won their fifth straight victory. Of the last eight games played the Barons have won six, tied one and lost one. Pretty good rec ord this.
 presume those who have consistently hammered the Barons from the beginning of the season to tie present time are In an anguish of fear that they will reach the .5Od mark
 The upward course, I am certain, is be- ing followed with signs of regret, not out
  known through intimation.
 If the Barons had received perfect support from the fans and others in Bir- mingham they would now be in the first division, where they will be pretty soon. It will be an awful disappointment, and there will be much for the knockers to swallow.
 In this connection, l must congratulate the newspapers. and the men who write them, in this city.
 They have no ground on which to boost, of course, but they are giving what en- ocuragement they can, and are refraining from ugly moods and ugly methods of expression.
 They realize that they are up against it for this season. and appreciate the futil- ity or making themselves ridiculous. They

LUNCHEON SMOKER
NEXT THURSDAY NIGHT

The officers of the Commercial
Club have arranged "A Lunch
con Smoker" for Thursday
night, May 9th, at the Court
House. The previous announce
ment for Monday night has been
cancelled, owing to the fact that
the city:.will, at that time. have
present the delegates to the Red
Men convention, which meets
the first of next week
The program for the Smoker"
will consist of short talks by
number of entertaining speakers
along industrial and progressive
lines.
The efforts of the members of
the Commercial Club should meet
with every possible encourage
ment from the citizens generally,
and a hearty cooperation should
prevail among the members. The
latter are investing their money
in the organization, and some OF
them are devoting much time and
thought to the work of advertis-
ing the advantages to be found
here.
Those who have been active
should find a ready and hearty
support from the other members
and the citizen who has not join
ed should become member.
The history of such organiza-
tions is worth investigation by
those who have failed to lend
their financial aid and moral sup
port to the local organization
Every town of any Importance
has it's business organization
through which the advantages
of the place are advertised to. the
outside world.
In practically all of the larger
cities, a publicity bureau is
maintained, and large sums are
used to employ the best talent to
advertise the superior advantages
which each city claims over her
business rivals. This spirit of
advertising has spread over the
entire country, and the town that
fails to employ some means OF
advertising itself will become
dwarfed, and will be lost in the
big fight now being made for
business.
Thes.motive which prompts
this local movement, is by no
means selfish, but public spirit
ed. The benefits derived cannot
be limited to those most active
in the work, but the greatest
benefits derived by the man who
holds largely Of real estate and
other property from his profits
are increased. 1t is a public en-
terprise in which every citizen
of the place should feel person
al interest, and should be backed
up by the best brains in the
community and the hard cash of
the man with money.
If you are a member, do not
fail to attend this Smoker. /" If
not, become one beforehand, and
be on hand.
Remember the date, Thursday
night May 27.

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
Tupelo High School. Chancel-
lor Robins Delivers Address

The closing exercises OF the
Tupelo High School began Sum
day morning, when the Com
mencement sermon was preached
in the Christian church by DR..
McCarvey Of West Point. This
eminent divine took for his SUBJ
iect, 1.-The Life of Joseph" and
from his example of fidelity to
principal drew many valuable
lessons for the young, who COM
posed the congregation.
In the College Chapel Monday
morning the graduating exerci-
ses took place. The platform
and walls of the building were
decorated with evergreens and
exquisite collections of roses and
other beautiful flowers.
An invocation was offered by
Rev. M. H. Armour. The fol-
lowing was the program OF the
exercises:
Piano Solo-Miss Hoyt Ray
mond.
Welcome Address-Miss Annie
Lou Brown.
Piano Solo-Miss Erin Ballard.
Glass Prophet Miss Susie Nc
Allister.
Glass Will--Miss Adessa Mil
Ter.
Piano Solo-Miss Lucille Pres
ton.
Valedictory Miss Mabel Mitch
ell.
Piano Solo-Miss Julia Bliss
Joyner.
Diplomas were awarded to the
graduates of the Tenth Grade:
Misses Susie McAllister, Lucille
Preston, Adessa Miller, Julia
Bliss Joyner, Mabel Mitchell,
Annie Lou Brown, and to the
following young men: Earl Pound
Polk Harris, Paul Armour and
Joe Ruff.
Chancellor J. @. Robins then
delivered the annual address
taking for his theme, The Call
or the South to Her Youth.
Judge Robins delivered one OF
the most practical and forcible
addresses ever made before a
graduating class. In his opening
remarks he. stated that he had
at first felt inclined to decline
the invitation on accountof pres.
sing official duties, but leconsid-
ering he felt it his duty, if with
in his power, to say and do what
he could for the encouragement
of the youth of the country. He
directed the attention OF the
young women and the young
men to the necessity of laying
foundations for future success
by a thorough preparation for
the practical duties of life and
the grounding into character the
principals of civic righteousness.
Following these lines, Chancel-
lor Robins made a deep and last
ing impression upon his hearers
and the words of the speaker
found lodgment, in the minds
and hearts Of his youthful hear
ers.
In dealing with the problems
of education as affecting the
youth Of the State, he digressed
far enough to advocate the es-.
tablishment of a Reform School
for both white and negro boys,
taking the position that the State
should not be parsimonlous IN
furnishing the means to correct
the evil doer insthe incipiency OF
his career and that money thus
spent was more wisely used than
money expended to prosecute the
same evil doer after he had be-
come hardened criminal.
The address was made up OF
such wholesome thoughts and
sup gestions and the audience
was highly enlightened and en-
tertained-
