FOR
 LOWRY FUNERAL

Jackson, Miss, January 20.--(Special)- Efforts were made during the day to have the family of Governor Lowry con- sent to permit the body to be escorted by Confederate veterans and the local military to the capitol and lie in state Friday morning. but because of his well known dislike of anything akin to pomp and display, the offer was declined.
 Col. w. A. Montgomery, who succeeds General Lowry as commander-in-chief of the Mississippi division of the United Con federate Veterans, and who was his life long friend, came to Jackson as soon as he heard of the death, saw Governor Noel as to the propriety of requesting that the body lie in state. and with his consent and approval of the proposition interceded with the family. The hour of the funeral is fixed for noon Friday at the home of MT. W. M. Buie., to leave for Brandon at 2:3O on a special coach to be attached to the regular passenger train. Robert A. Smith camp of Confederate Veterans will furnish an escort of honor to ac- company the remains.

UNNATURAL THINNESS
 EASILY CORRECTED
By Clever Prescription Which Can Be Filled at Any Drug
 Store.
No Need to Be Thin Now as Reports Show This Method Ef-
 fective.

People who are very thin and scrawny ought not to be so. Undoubted- Iy they are more subject to disease and contagious than the normally neshy. Thinness is usually accompanied by weakness, and weakness subjects any one to colds, coughs, consumption, pneu- monia. etc. It has been discovered all most by accident, that tincture cadomene, when combined in a prescription Sith proper acceIerative medicines, becomes ones of the most valuable. effective. and reliable nutritive or flesh making medi- cines known to science. It is especially beneficial to men and women between the ages of sixteen and ffty-five. who from lack of proper nerve force and digestion remain undeveloped in body, limbs, arms and bust. A well rounded symmetrical figure in man or woman in- dIcates health, magnetism, stamina and happiness
 The reader who wishes to add from ten to forty pounds should not fall to begin with this valuable prescriptions:
 First, obtain of any well stocked drug gist, three ounces of essence of pepsin and three ounces of syrup of rhubarb In an oz. bottle. Then add one ounce compound essence cardi0l. Shake and let stand two hours. Then add one ounce tincture csdomene compound (not carda- mom). Shake well and take one tea spoonful before each meal, one after each meal Drink plenty of water between meals and when retiring. Keep up this treatment regularly and of certainty from one to three pounds VIII be added to the weight each week, and the gen. eral health will also improve.

SOME GOOD GAMES
 FOR APPETZERS
Birmingham Will See Many
 Big League Players
CONNIE MACK COMES FIRST
Chicago Cubs, Cleveland, New York Giants, Boston and Buffalo Will Also Come to Entertain
 Local Fans.

Birmingham fans will see more pro- season games this spring than have been scheduled for the several preceding sea sons While the schedule will probably bring still other aggregations-som of the Sally bunches-enough are already slated to guarantee some sport before the be- ginning of actual hostilities.
 On March IT and IS Connie Mack will bring his able Athletics to the slagpile, and the fans will see Krause, the wonder full young southpaw; Collins. one of the stars of the American circuit; Eddie Plank and others of that splendid aggre gation of ball tossers.
 On March 24 and 20 Frank Chance and Charlie Murphy will bring their Cubs to Birmingham the Chicago squad of the National club, which won several pen nants hand running. It is probable that Three -Fingered' Brown, one of the mar vels, will perform. The Cubs were here season before last and certain unpleasant nesses followed which caused them to jump Birmingham last year. As is re- membered. Hoffman spiked an umpire and suit against the player was filed in the criminal court.
 March & and 29 Napoleon Lajoie and the Cleveland outfit will perform at West End-or wherever the diamond is located this squad being one numbering some of the greatest individual performers in the business, and one whose annual decline has caused the world to marvel.
 On the following day Johnny McGraw and his scrappy bunch of New York Giants will be on the scene. When last in Birmingham the Giants made them selves obnoxious, and were prevented from returning for several succeeding seasons. However, peace has been re- stored, and as a consequence the fans will see some of the finest specimens of ball players in existence. On April the Boston Nationals play here. On April the Barons go to Tuscaloosa to play their annual game against the talent of Dr. Pollard of the University of Alabama.
 On April and 6 the Buffalo club of the Eastern league plays in Birmingham. There is especial interest in these games on account of the fact that Billy Smith, who formerly managed Atlanta, will be along in charge of the squad, and for mer Baron. Noah Henline, is one of the best players.
 The schedule to date follows:
 March r and IS, Philadelphia Athletics.
 March A and 25, Chicago Nationals.
 March 2S and %, Cleveland.
 March 30, New York Giants
 April f. University of Alabama in Tus- caloosa.
 April 5 and G. Buffalo.

Judae Vert Has Clear Field.

Decatur, January 2O.-(Special. )-Judge Thomas W. Vert is a candidate for elec- ton for another term for the judgeship of the Morgan county law and equity court, and the indications now are that he will have no opposition for the nomi- nation or for election. He was appointed judge of this court some time ago by Gov. B. B. Conner under the bill which created the court He has made one of the most popular judges this county has ever had, and but a small per cent of his decisions have been reversed by the su- preme court of the state. While Judge Vert has the distinction of being the youngest judge in Alabama and one of the youngest in the United States, he has developed to a most remarkable degree the ability of 1urist, and his rulings In court would be a credit to a man who had spent many years on the bench.

WORDSWORTH ON SEASONS OUTLOOK Special Attention Is Paid To
 Backstopping NEW PITCHERS ON TRIAL Manager Is Optimistic and Expresses Belief That the Barons Will
 Be In the Running This
 Year.
NEW PITCHERS ON TRIAL

Manager Molesworth was in a taikative mood yesterday afternoon, and as a re- suit some information concerning the Baron team for the ensuing season was gathered.
 Special attention is being paid to the backstopping, and ;n addition to the three men already on the string negotiations have been opened with a couple of teams of the big leagues for still another. Elliot of Kewanee of the Central league seems to be a frst-elass performer. He hit .27e, stole r bases and was an aggressive performer throughout the season. He is called "Rowdy" Elliot Boyes, a young ster who performed well last season with Lowell of the New England league. has been signed, too. He Is a light hitter about like Casey of Little Rock. He is recommended especially on account of his throwing to bases. Paddy Kane will be returned. As is known, Raub has been sold
 All of the old pitchers, with the excep- ton of Dickson, will be returned, and in case Dickson fails to make good with the New York Giants Molesworth states that the chances are that Birmingham will get him, too. Manuel and Robinson are first-class men. Fleharty, Bauer and Schopp will be brought along. big fellow named Williams, who won 19 of g games last season for Abilene of the Central Kansas league, looks promising Wagner, who won majority of his games last season in the New York State league, will be on the local lot, too. A big youngster touted highly, McTigue, who has done fine work in semi-profes- sional circles in Tennessee, will be given a trial Another pitcher, too, will prob ably be added before the season has opened.
 McGilvray or Gygli will play first. Mar can will be at second and Newton at short Smith, procured from Indianapolis will probably play third, while Emory of the Texas league and Larsen will com pete for honors.
 In the outfield Molesworth and Yancey will be used, and Mcbride, an excellent man from the Rock Island club of the ''Three-I," will hold down the garden where Henline played last season.
 Wagner pitcher, is also an infielder, and rlayed in a number of games on the infield last season. Manuel is an ex- cellent outfelder, and Gygli can play in several positions. So Molesworth feels that with the versatility of these men he will be able to get along with IA plavers-the limit this year-without any trouble.
 Molesworth is very optimistic and ex- presses the belief that he will be in the running this year.

A Junior B team kept up it's winning streak. taking the game from the club Junior B team by a decisive score In the first half the club boys did good work. Elwyn Cobbs appearing as the star performer. In the second half, however. the '. M. c. A. got together and piled ID the score. Charlie Jones led his team in the SCOT ing and in fact played a fine an-round game.
 Powell took two games from Paul Hayne, getting the Junior B game by Junior A game by the score of s2 to 6.

Nelson Odom threw three foul goals cut of four chances
 The Powell Junior A team literally ran away with their opponents, showing their superiority in every department of the game. Sanifer, who played in place of James. at forward, showed that he not only knows how to guard but is q dangerous player to have under the basket.

FOUR CONCERNS
 ARE INDICTED

Meridian, Miss, January 20-(Special.)- A sensation was caused in Meridian to- day when it was learned the late grand jury had returned indictments against the Eagle Cotton Oil company. the Mis- sissippi Cotton oil company, the Southern oil company and the Meridian Fertilizer factory. four of the biggest corporations in the city. The specific charge con tained in the indictment follows: .Did unlawfully adulterate cotton seed meal with hulls and other substances and did unlawfuIy sell cotton seed meal adul- terated with hulls or other substances without noting said adulteration on each sack or receptacle" It will be remem- bered that in his charge to the grand jury Judge Buckley laid considerable stress on reports which had been con veyed to him that adulterated cotton seed meal was being manufactured and sold in this county and urged the grand jury to probe into the matter and return in dictments wherever it was found the law was being violated The manager of each of the concerns involved was served with the papers in the case today and the case will probably be heard at the next term of the circuit court.
 Considerable interest is evidenced in Meridian regarding the reported engage ment of Prince Victor s. Ruelens of London who is in Meridian in the in- terest of the Mississippi Western Rail- road, to Mrs. Lillian Seltzer, daughter of Mrs. Dewald, a wealthy resident of Phia- delphia.
 The fact that Prince Ruelens and Mrs, Seltzer are engaged to be married has been known by their intimate friends for several days and no effort has been made to conceal the fact. Prince Rue lens returned to Meridian Saturday rather unexpectedly, accompanied by Mrs. De- wald and her daughter, Mrs Seltzer, and took apartments at the Great Southern hotel, and since that time they have been the guests at many social functions. Mrs. Seltzer is a beautiful young woman and a favorite with all who have met her It is understood that the wealthy mother is very much in favor of the marriage of her daughter to Prince Rue lens and that the marriage will take place within few months in Phladel- Dhia
