AMERICAN LEAGUE
q,
HEALANI AND MYRTLES
. RACE AGAIN TOMORROW

The Healani and Myrtle Clubs will
try conclusions once more In a nata-
torial competition tomorrow after
noon at Bishops wharf. The last
contest was so close and exciting
that a return relay race was at once
arranged for.
The distance to be covered Is three
hundred yards, and some remarkable
times are expected to put up by the
lads. Cunha and Oss are the star
performers of the group, and there
is no doubt of their being able to get
through the water at marvellous
rate.
\ start will be made at o'clock,
and all the competitors are request
ed to be on deck then, as the relay
event will take some time, and most
people wish to get home for dinner.
| Both teams are, OF course, conf
dent of success, and the members are
training hard and truly in hopes of
pulling of the championship.

baseball Boom
Down In The
A'ntipodes

Baseball Is making great Roadway
In Australia at present and the num-
Der of games that are played around
Sydney and Its suburbs would make
many a mainland city LOOK small In the
ball game line.
On a recent Saturday no less than
twenty-five games were played In dit.
ferent series, and the sporting page OF
a well known Sunday paper was crowd
ed with the results of the matches.
Some prominent cricketers have tax
on to the game with great keenness,
and the batting OF these men Is re-
markable. The only weak spot IN inc
play Is, judging from the press reports,
to be found in the pitching, which
seems to be the old'styie OF fast' deliV'
cry without any curve.
The first real baseball seen In Aus
tralia was many years ago when Spald'
bunch introduced the game ana then
later on when the big American insur'
ance companies opened mp IN Austria
liza. the clerks and ofiiccrs started a
boom In the game that mas never died
out.
The press reports OF the game as
now played In Sydney and Melbourne
show that big scores are the rule. not
the exception, and games that end ~
, to 80, 81 to 20, and That sore oil thinS
are common. Still, when the game
was In its infancy In the States, and
before the Introduction OF the curve,
spit and other Kinds OF ball, big scores
were made Just as they are In kanga'
rooland today.

SHOCK TO SHEFFIELD.
Community Finds Baker Passing as
White Man Is Of African Descent.

Sheffield, July 8-(Special )-Sheffield
received a jolt this morning the like of
which was never experienced before IN
this town when 1t was learned that T.
3. Culverson, who runs bakery on
Third avenue. was not a member Of the
proud Caucasian race. as had been sup
posed, but that he Is q descendant Of
Ham and traces his ancestry back to the
jungles Of Africa. What made the dis
covery so startling was tho fact that
Culvsrson has been attending the white
churches. playing pool with the white
men of the city, rooming in house oc-
cupisd by white people and employing
white help in his bakery.
Culverson has been living in Sheffield
for some time past and the suspicion that
he was sailing under false colors had
never arisen until he went to Troy to
attend the funeral of his brother. Then
Sheffield people read In the papers of
T. E. Culverson having attended q negro
funeral In Troy and 1t caused a gasp.
May Phillips. who with his sister Is
employed In Culvsrson's bakery, wrote
to the city clerk Of Troy and the answer
was received this morning stating that
Culverson had never attempted to pass
for anything but negro In Troy Upon
the receipt of the letter Mr.. Phillips ana
his sister Immediately left the bakery
and when Mayor W. r. Weston accused
Culverson OF being a negro he made no
denial.
Cuverson and his wife. who assists him
In the bakery, have nothing in their ap-
pearanoe to indicate African blood and
the. startling discovery has been q shock
to those who had associated with him.

BUILDING RECORD.
There Is Great Activity in Alabama
and Georgia.

Columbus. Ca, July ESPECIAL 1.-The
Georgia and Alabama Industrial Index
will say tomorrow in its regular weekly
Issue:
Banner building records of previous
years in Georgia and Alabama stand in
serious danger of losing their prestige,
for reports of the operations for the first
six months of 1909 in the two states show
that the reaction from the late panic is
so great that new high water marks in
investments in brick and concrete and
wood and stone will be created If the
last half of the second year but keeps
pace with the first half In Atlanta.
Ca, for instance, where the highest
record for building permits In a year
was slightly over 5000. 900 in 1905, 1t is
predicted that 1t will take the figures S.
1000 to express accurately the building
operations for 1909, this estimate being
based on the record of the first half of the
year. In Savannah, the second largest
city In Georgia, the gain In permits indi-
Gates the smashing of the records there
the figures to date being an increase
over those for the corresponding half of
any previous year. Among the Alabama
cities the building record of Birming-
ham is the most conspicuous, and while
no detailed comparison with the permits
of previous years has yet been compiled,
much of the construction Is of such a
costly and substantial character that the
capital of the big Alabama mineral dis
trict may be in the same class with its
Georgia sisters in the respect of setting
up a brand new building record
