 Real football games come to Mont gomery but once year. This years gridiron offering will be pulled off at the base ball park at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon between the elevens of Auburn and the University of Geor- gia,

game between Georgia and Tech last Saturday.
 Georgia has improved wonderfully and 1t was distinct surprise that she threw into the yellow jackets. Her defense Is superb, but it is on her of- fensive that she Is weak. She even showed improvement. in this, with the aid of Frank Dobson's coaching.
 Most dopesters agree that Auburn has all the edge on the Red and Black eleven. and some would go go far as to say that the Auburn boys would run over them. hut such is nor the case. Georgia always puts up, a great fight against Auburn, as she does against Tech She has never met Auburn vet that she did not make the Alabama squad hustle in order to win.
 Auburn will outweigh Georgia this year, but Georgia will be an equal Y not a little superior, in strength.
 Then. too. Auburn has made bet ter record this year than has the He'd and Black, all of which certainly points to an Auburn victory, bui Georgia is hoping to make respect able showing and to hold the score down as much a spessible., Auburn and Georgia have met on the gridtror fifteen times. Auburn has won seven times to Georgia's six and two of tbs games have resulted in ties.
 Georgia wants to win this game and will resort to every possible trick and piece of science she can muster Auburn will want to make as big a score as possible. Both of these wishes cannot be gratifed, but 1t will make both elevents give the Montgom- cry people the hardest football bat tie seen here in many years.

 Mir. Stone said that he did not under stand how an oid-time Democrat could vote for the amendment when the party at its last election had declared in Its platform for local option.
 Mir. cruitt interrupted and said that he did not believe the party had done such q thing but if 1t had it wac only as a 'vote-getter"

Fifty Years Ago.

We learn from almost every portion
of this county that the prospect for
anything like fine crop of oats is
rapidly diminishing. Fields that but a
few days since bid fair to repay the
husbandmen with a rich harvest are
now considered almost worthless in
consequence of a rust similar to that
which injured the crop last season.
An ordinance has been passed for
constructing sidewalks on the west
side of Chestnut street from High
street to its junction with Commerce
street and on Commerce street from
said junction to Dodge street.
Eggs are selling in our city at 6 and

We notice that the Common Council
has purchased the brick building for
merly occupied by the Westminster
Presbyterian Church with the intention
of converting it into a school house.
Under the circumstances, this may be
a wise movement, it being understood
that the old school room on Fountain
street will be converted into a stable,
for which it has been remarkably well
adapted for a number of years. This
is sad commentary upon the public
spirit Of our otherwise enterprising city.
