is customary. The extreme ease Of
the money market, in spite IF the near
approach Of the July settlements
might prove an incentive to keep up
speculation in some circumstances.
The heavy receipts~of currency from
the interior are providing
to insure the meeting Of all require
ments on July 1st. Borrowing abroad
also is pursued with facilitN. There
is no dread apparent that the July
payments, estimated over $2O0.0O0,00O
will not be met with ease. The time
money market is called very soft and
reflects the expectation that the period
of ease will extend for some time into
the future. Today's strong bank
statement reinforces this expectation.
A disturbing effect was caused IN to-
days market by the further relapse
in Union Pacific pfd. which sold as
low as 100 L. compared Ito on

Philadelphia, February 13.-CSpecial)- "Salome" to the more healthful spectacle of fsticuffs women prominent in Phila- delphia society are awaiting anxiously the mill between Anthony J. Drexel Riddle, amateur. and Jack O'Brien, pro fessional pugilist, at the Philadelphia Athletic club on the night of February g.
 To the ladies night hundreds of we'll known women are being invited. The in vitations to the bout have been sent out by the club 10 members and their friends, and they in turn have leave to invite the women. Harry P. Burke, captain of the club, said today
 T cannot tell you who will be there, because the club has not yet received ac- ceptances to the invitations sent out. But I believe there will be a large crowd of society women present MT Riddle is acting as O'Brien's boxing partner while O'Brien is preparing for his fight with Ketchell.
 At the ladies night on February 23 both MT. Riddle and OBrien will wear full ring costume and all the usual for malities will be observed. There will be no decision, however, which, of course, obviates hard hitting"

LOGICAL ECZEMA CURE
 ENDORSED BY PHYSICIANS

After treating eczema for years as 8 practically incurable blood disease, the medical world is greatly interested in the discovery that it Is not a blood disease at all but is due to a parasite in the skin itself. This parasite is easily de- stroyed by the external application of a compound of oil of wintergreen, thymol, glycerine, etc This will quickly kill all eczema germs, while soothing and re- freshing the skin.
 Dr. F.. A. Folkerts of Duluth, Mnn., tells of the success in treating patients:
 There was man here suffering from eczema for the last 14 years, and l ap piled the D. D. D. treatment. I also ap- piled it to a man of West Duluth, Minn., who has been suffering with rheumatism for IA years, and eczema ill his feet, and the second treatment in both cases cleared the skin almost absolutely. The first ap- plication is a balm, and it's soothing effect is beyond expression. I shall never be without it. and shall use it among my patients altogether"
 No matter how terribly you suffer from eczema, salt rheum. ringworn, etc, you will feel instantly soothed and the itch allayed at once when a few drops of this oil of wintergreen compound is applied. The cures all seem to be permanent. For sale by all druggists.

ALABAMA READY FOR THE SEASON Has Practically Completed
 Both lis Schedules L. s. U. ON THANKSGIVING Derrell Pratt Captains Both Teams. Tennessee Declines to Come to

 Goes to Knoxville.
l.. s. U. ON THANKSGIVING

The University of Alabama has an nounced it's baseball and football sched- ules for 1909.
 While, according to the athletic author ities of the university the prospects are comparatively poor, the schedules en- brace some of the leading southern col- leges.
 The biggest baseball games will be against Vanderbilt and Georgia. Last season, as is remembered, Alabama de- feated all opponents save Georgia, which team won the southern championship and escaped, at the same time, the charges of carrying ineligible mon which are usual ly made against a team winning all it's games.
 Other teams which Alabama will meet in baseball are Howard. Birmingham of the Southern league, Tulane, Union Col lege of Tennessee and Cumberland uni versty.
 Tennessee Sends Utmatum.
 In football Alabama opens the season with games against Wetumpka and How ard in Tuscaloosa, then meets Clemson in Birmingham. The next game is
 
 Columbus Georgia will be entertained, but the place for the battle has not been selected as yet, Atlanta and Bir- mingham being the cities between which the choice lies. There is a game pend- in gbetween Alabama and Tulane, this to occur, if arranged, in New Orleans. Alabama will meet Tennessee, as usual, but contrary to the general rule, the game will not be played in Birmingham. The Tennessee management evidently at tributes its almost unbroken line of de- feats to a Birmingham hoodoo. So the ultimatum was sent to Alabama to come to Knoxville or not play at all Alabama was very desrous of again meeting the Tennesseans, so the game was arranged. Louisiana on Thanksgiving
 The Thanksgiving game for Birming- ham will be between the University of Alabama and the Louisiana State uni versty. which latter institution out elassed every other southern aggregation last season and won the undisputed championship.
 Derrill Pratt, the splendid young base ball and football player, whose work has for two seasons been a feature in the south has been elected captain of both the baseball and football teams.

 The baseball schedule follows:
 March 25, 26. H-Howard on campus.
