 "Tennessee claims the championship over Alabama on the ground that sho has played 20 games. won 16, lost q. and tied 1. Tennessee has played 10 s. I. A. A. games and lost three. Ala lost l. Alabama and lost three Ala bama has played 21 games, won 20. lost 1, Alabama played s. I. A A gades and lost none. Tennessees general average is .7s5, Alabama's general average Is .952. Tennessee's s. I. A. A. average is TOO. Alabama's s. I. A. A. record is 1000
 Tennessee split even with Mercer. thereby failing to win one 8. I. A. A. series, yet she claims equal honors with Alabama. In aa article to Tn" Appeal from Knoxville dated May 18th. a statement was male to the effect that Alabama was practically unknown quantity until this year, and for this reason games were not scheduled. Tho absurdity of this statement Ia too readily seen for 1t to be considered. II will be remembered that Alabama was the undisputed holder of the cham pionship of the South in 1A07 And that. in 1908. Alabama defeated Geor- gia- Tech. L.. s. U.. Auburn. and other strong teams--in fact only one ser
 
 the championship.
 From A &. M of Mississippi. the statement comes that Alabau1a's claim for the championship iS looked upon as reiicuious; fro this statement it is evident that the Starksvtlle aggrega- tfon is not in touch with things and that they do not investigate before malx ing statements One statement was, that Mississippi A. & M. had issued . challenge to Alabama If this 10 true, the mails or wires are at fault for no such has ever been received by the management of the Alabama team. Tn another statement the management of Alabama is placed at fault This is un- derstood only by the fact that there Is recorded on the minute books of the Alabama Athletic Association a clause which forbids any athletic re- Iations whatever with Mississippi A. & M
 "But the Alabama Alumni and stu dents were anxious to have the cham pionship settled beyond the question

 of Execution.
 Nashville, Tenn, May 2o.--A Mur- freesboro, Tenn. dispatch says:
 The question of where William Nit chell the murder of Squire w. H Hindman. will be executed and when he will be. is causing intense interest. The situation will be still further com plicated as his attorneys are ready to apply for a writ of habeas corpus. It will present a lawsuit unusual in many respects, because if the writ should be refused. they could appeal to the supreme court and thus delay the execution another year.
 The scaffold to hang him on has been completed in the county jail, but sheriff Mcknight does not know what General Gates will decide as to whe- ther Mitchell shall be executed at Nashville or Murfreesboro. The Hate fixed for his execution is Saturday.
 The legislature recently passed Q law providing that all executions ir Tennessee shall take place at the penitenitary in Nashville.

TWO BROKEN SPORTS.

It Is announced in the columns of a paper that makes specially of sporting events and of the careers of noted prize.fighters ana gamblers, that two of the best known sports In this country are now ito the bad" One of these is Ed Corrigan, a ia nous American turfmau and plung- CT; and the other is Pat Sheedy, who, in a long and varied career in which he is said to have won and lost millions across the green cloth. gained the soubriQuet of the square gambler" Corrigan is poyerty-strick- en in Lexington, Ky, with less than S2,0OO in his possession, attending upon his dying wife. Sheedy is at Chicago, dying of fatty degeneration of the heart; practically pauper.
 Men of this type are often good men. That is to say they are honor. able as to their engagements and obligations; generous in their in stincts; kindly and sympathetic in their treatment of the unfortunate and companionaOle among their fel' lows. They are men possessing, with out doubt, more admirable charac' teristics than can be claimed by many others who would denounce them as moral outcasts, and whose lines are cast in perfectly proper and respectable channels. Further more, the best men of this type, es- recially tue successful ones are men of nerve. which is but mother name for shrewdneSs. In their judgment fl men and affairs they are aided by a sort of insight and readiness. But, after all, the chances for their ulti- mate success are altogether against them. and for fundamental reasons.
 The professional gambler who makes betting the business Of his lifetime loses his grip on all that goes to build healthy morals and sound mentality. The spiritual part Ci him becomes extinct. The moral died. e'er deserved so fair a bride! The mental part of him eventually atrophieS in all other lines except the consideration of chances, and the exercise of those faculties which en- able him to decide whether his Oppo- nent will be Gn easy mark" or noI. That the physical part of him is more than apt to suffer is obvious from the nature of his occupation and the fabits of life incident thereto.
 It is impossible for men to get away from the philosophy of work; from the demand which NI,Jre mhEes upon men for service. Consider the .wo men in question, either of then, had undoubted ability to have en- gagged in some legitimate line of busi. ness. and with success. There might not have been a chance for the ac' luirement of so much money as they have spent, and which they never earned: but there is every reasonable assurance that they could have at tained reasonable competence; and, above all, honor, and a resolute, healthful, robust selt-respect, which they have never known as gamblers, It was long odds that the end would have been quite different, even from the financial viewpoint; while from every other viewpoint what would have been the gain is clear enough. The money they have had has fled from them; and the sad part of 1t to think upon is what they bartered for that money.-Portland Telegram.
