II has been somewhat tardy in COM

The Keystone state has not been
overhasty in paying tribute to its he
rnes of that memorable conflict that
really decided the Civil war. but II
there has been some delay 1t is to be
atoned for in one of the most superb
memorials that ever rose above
scene of lofty achievement.
Perhaps Pennsylvania having the
battlefield within its borders and be-
ing to some extent its custodian, has
chosen to show Difference TO other
states by giving way to them in re-
spect to the erection OF monuments.

Now comes the Keystone state.
| Four thousand of its men with their

| TO which Abraham Lincoln In the
| greatest speech yet made by an
| American made such impressive ref

dress. It was fitting, that the Key

| troops engaged in the battle than any
other commonwealth. for Philadelphia

the scene of the fight would have fall

Eighteen states defended the north
ern colors, and Pennsylvania was fal
ahead. not only in numbers of mel
engaged, but in the percentage o
those who were killed.
The historian, William +. Fox, II
his book, New York in the War,
says.
"The percentage of killed in TIL
soldiers of the Keystone state wa
greater than the quota Of any othe
northern state. This high percentag
of loss In battle was largely due 4
the fact that nearly all of the Penn
sylvania troops served in Virgins
where the territory was better cor
tested and the war more prolonged
Then again the Pennsylvania reg
ments were second to none. The

Montgomery. April 1s-(special 1-The Barons arrived tonight at o'clock and found the entire town wrapped in slum- ber Manager Molesworth busied himself in a search for lanterns, however, and as a result of care and discrimination the players were soon homed at the Ex- change.
 And 1t is now known that Noah Hen line is not seriously injured. Tonight he can walk with ease, and if he improves as rapidly tomorrow. it is barely pos sible that he will be in the lineup. This news has given the Barons new life and they are going after an even break in the four games to be played here this week.
 Manager Molesworth announced tonight that Ford will open tomorrow. Fleharty will follow. Then will come big Gene Moore Grant Schopp will close Thurs day afternoon. Manager Greminger, who also arrived tonight from Nashville, an- nounces Lively as his twirler in tomor- rows game. Lively, from all appear ances, is the best he possesses, so the Barons will probably have to hustle to beat him,
 Greminger announces, too. the acquisi- tion of a new pitcher. As is remembered, some weeks ago, he offered thousand dollars for a good southpaw. On the recommendation of Henry Meek he signed Billy George. George some years ago was with Boston. Little Rock then got him. Next he showed up in Birmingham and aided in the construction of the Brown-Marx addition. Then Johnny Dobbs of Chattanooga tried him and found him wanting. Some years ago George was a good twirler and he may return to form. Stranger things have oc- cured.
 The Barons had a big trip over from Atlanta. They remained fairly tame until West Point was reached. Then the sight of Alabama soil aroused their patriotism and they proceeded to make merry. Hen line addressed those gathered at the sta- tion to see the train pass through and created great mreriment. He made a regular campaign speech at Opelika, and several hundred people heard what he had to say. But the greatest moment of all occurred at Auburn, when hundred col lege boys crowded round the train call ing for sight of the Barons. The lads were enthused over their double barreled victory over Georgia and they expressed the desire that Birmingham handle Mont gomery as well. When the boys got themselves into bunch Henline took their picture and the train pulled out amid the cheers of the throng.
 The game tomorrow will open the sea son in Montgomery. The fans here are hungry for the fray and doubt a large number of people will witness the sport. The teams incidentally have an equal standing, and each will strive to win. The game promises to be interest ing. Ford is in fine condition, better, he states, than he was ever in before since entering the south.
