 Anniston, Oct. 20.-(Special.) )--A most unusual condition prevails at the Jacksonville State Normal School. ac- cording to President c. w. Daugette. who has just returned from Birmingham where he attended an executive meeting of the Southern Educational Association. in that there are fifteen more male students matrfc- ulated at that school than there are females.
 President, Daugette says that as rule in normal schools the female en- rollment is about 75 per cent. female to 25 per cent. male, and the reversal of this state of affairs. he says, brings about one of the most unusual condi- tions found in the entire country, par ticularly in Alabama. It Is accounted for in part by the fact that the peo- pie of the State are paying more foy their educational services.

VICTORY FOR LEADERS.
Brentwood Team Easily Defeats the
Langdon Boys.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
LANGDON, July 31.-The Brentwood
team of the Prince George County Base
Ball League easily defeated the Langdon
club here today and incidentally strength
ened their lead in the race for the PEN
nant. The visitors outclassed the Dis
trict sphere tossers in every department
of the game and showed much class, es-
pecially in the second inning, when Lang
don had all the cushions occupied, with
none down, and failed to score, having
two men thrown out at the plate and
another at second on an attempted steal.
In the sixth inning Hayes cracked a
liner to the center garden and made the
circuit. Cleve Beckett made three hits
out of four times up. Mcmahon was
knocked out of the box in the third in
ming and Erskin relieved him and did
fairly well. Langdon put up a rather
poor fielding game while Brentwood play
ed a fine game in this regard.

CAPITAL CITY LEAGUE.
How the Clubs Stand.
Today's game-Brentwood and Marines. 2:3O
Marines Drub the Columbus.

Three home runs. three doubles and
four singles, made by the Marines. were
enough to win a game from the Columbia
Athletic Club yesterday afternoon at the
Capital City Park. before very large
crowd. Score, 5 to B.
The losers never scored a run until
the seventh session. when they crossed
once. Again in the ninth they registered
two. The winners got theirs in the sec
ond. fourth, fifth and eighth.
Hard smuggling on the part of the Ma
ing was ragged, they making six errors.
.Lanky' Litz was on the rubber for
the Marines, and he twirled a creditable
game, allowing nine bingles, passing four
and tanning five.
On the slab for the Columbus was their
little southpaw. "Reddy' Litchfield. Yes
terday was Litchfield's first off day this
season. The little southpaw allowed one
more hit than his opponent. also the
same number of passes and strike-outs.
The right field fence was the thing that
made .Reddy' look funny, as three balls
went over 1t for three tallies. Haywood s
home run yesterday hit inside the
grounds and took lucky bound over.
If the fence had not been there it would
have been only a single Manager Maui
rice OConnor claims he has lost four
games this season on account of that
fence.
Berlick's batting was the feature of
the game The clever third baseman
connected for two four-sachers and a
single. He also played a classy fielding
game-five chances without miscue.

LAKE FOREST, H.. July 31.-Melville
II. Long. Pacific coast champion, won the
tennis championship of the west at the
Onwentsia Club courts today by decisive
ly defeating Nat Emerson of Cincinnati,
the former holder of the title. The score
was o., - and 60. Long earned the
right to challenge Emerson by defeating
Thomas G.. Bundy. champion of southern
California, in tie finals played earlier in
the day.
The championship in doubles was won
by r. A. Holden, jr., and TruX Emerson
of Cincinnati, who lowered the colors OF
II. NJ. McQuiston and p. ID. McQufston,
champions of Mexico, in the final round
of play. The victory by Holden ana
Emerson was the surprise of the day. 1t
entities them to compete in the pfeiimi-
nary national doubles to be played at the
same courts August and against the
eastern, southern and Pacific coast cham
pions, to decide which team Will have the
right to challenge III. II. Hackett and n.
B. Alexander, present champions, for the
national title at Newport. The Mceuls-
tons annexed the first SCI, but were UNI
able TO resist the Cincinnatians' on
slaughts in the other three. The score
was &c, 6-3, "a and 81.
In the challenge match for the women
championship Miss Carrie Nicely of Ken
wood successfully defended her title
against her clubmate, Mrs. Charles n.

retain permanently the cup which she
had previously won two successive years.
The score was 6-1 and 10.
The final round in woman doubles was
won by Misses Hoyt and Nicely from

sets of 6-3 and 70.
In the mixed doubles Miss Carrie B..
Nicely and j. c. Nicely defeated Miss
Edith Hoyt and NJ. l.. Johnson, Ga, 2-6
and 60.
The playing of Long was the best ever
seen in this part of the country. In the
first set of the series Emerson gave his
younger opponent hard struggle, but
was finally vanquished after sixteen
games had been played. In the second
set Emerson was defeated by the agility
of the Pacific coast man. The third set,
the one which decided the championship,
was a complete walkaway for Long.

IN BRIGHTON RACES
Driving Skill of Robertson and

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, July 31.-George Robertson
and AL. Poole, alternating a the wheel of
a fifty-horsepower Simplex car, won the
Motor Racing Associations first twenty
four-hour race of this season. which was
finished at 1905 O'Clock at the Brighton
Beach Motordome. The final scores of
the competitors were as follows: Simplex.
George Robertson and AL Poole 1901
miles: Rainier. La Disbrow and c. H.
Lund. 1.O41 miles: Palmer-Singer. Frank
Lescault and Ray Howard, 96S miles,

ward Hawley. 697 miles; Acme. Cyrus
Patschke and H. A. Vantine. $50 miles

ney, 219 miles.
The prizes were as follows: First. 81 900:
second. $500; third. $500; fourth 500:
fifth. 800. The winners average was
better than forty-fiye miles an hour.
Fiat. Haynes and Acme were not run
ming when the contest ended having
been withdrawn for various reasons be-
tween noon and , o'clock. About 10000
spectators witnessed the finish of the
race.
The victory of the Simplex was simply
a case of a favorite running to form.
Racing enthusiasts. especially those
who are willing to bet on the correctness
of their judgment, had made the Simplex
the favorite in all of the betting that
was done. The driving skill of Robertson
and Poole and the victory of Simplex last
fall. when it travelled LIT miles at
Brighton Beach, of course had great
weight in influencing public opinion.
Robertson made his first public appear
ance as a race driver in 1903. when he did
some driving in Walter Christies front
wheel direct drive car that Christie drove
in that years Vanderbilt race. He was
TO have driven the Apperson racer in the
American elimination trials for the 1906
Vanderbilt cup race, but the car was
smashed in practice.
He won the Vanderbilt cup race last
fall with locomobile racer. and also won
the Paramount Park stock GLASSES race
at Philadelphia with locomobile, and
Frank Lecault drove the Simplex that
made the record of lit miles at Brighton
last fall. He is twenty-four years old,
and comes from Flushing, l.. 1. Al Poole,
his teammate, is transplanted English
man. who was mechanic for Joe Tracy
for several years. He drove in the auto
mobile club of Americas light car race
at Savannah last fall, and in the Indiana
trophy race this year.
The surprise of the race was the uni
form and consistent work of the 1870
horsepower Rainier, with a couple of
drivers who were making their debut as
twenty-four- hour race contestants. La
Disbrow had competed in number OF
speed events. finishing second with a
Rainier in one of the classes of the motor
park way sweepstakes over the Vanderbilt
cup circuit last fall. Charles H. Lund,
the other Rainier pilot. was an entire
stranger to race enthusiasts. The Pal
mer-Singer six-cylinder car performed
very creditably for its first appearance in
q Neutrality-suspicious. race.
