he question ut issue was whether
II was properly classified as stsll
wine by similitude and dutiable at
fifty cents COLON. or whether II
should have been classified either ns
beer by similitude. dutiable ri
twenty cents u gallon, or as a none
numeratcd manufactured article at
twenty per cent al valorem. Prior
to 1894 sake was classified as a dis
titled liquor. In that year a Japan
ese Importer named Woozens protest
ed against this classification and al
legged sake should be classified as a
still wine by similitude. The board
OF general appraisers decided that
lake Is not spirits manufactured or
distilled from grain or other ma
terials, and is not distilled or COM
pounded with distilled spirits. The
treasury department accepted this
decision, and the classification OF
sake was changed from that OF a
distilled liquor to that OF still wine
by simllltude.
Importers began, however, In 1902
fling protests against the classih-
cation of sake as still wine, al
leging that It was either beer By
similitude. or a nonenumerated man
ufactured article. One of the pro-
tests was lodged by Nishlmiya 4 Co
OF New York. II was decided by the
board of appraisers against the
government and later was decided
by the circuit court In favor OF the
importers. The government then
took an appeal to the court OF ap'
reals, which affirmed the ruling o

/ No twirler can be successful If he
sulks when his teammates make err
rors 1t was mighty hard, but the
Mexican should have gone ahead as If
nothing had happened. Then the fans,
instead of censuring as they did, would
have forgiven.
And though they laughed when File
harty strolled to the mound as a man
just awakened from nap after a
heavy dinner. they did not approve.
They would have preferred an exhibit
ton of ginger" 1t is the old pep
after ALL which brings results.
And still the Barons have captured
no game on home grounds. Three have
been lost.
This is a record of which there is
no reason to be proud
And the fans are a little disappointed.
They expected the team to win yes
terday and reported at the park for
the purpose of cheering themselves
hoarse.
And in spite of the fact that early
it was plain the day was lost thu
spirit of the fans was good. They
endeavored to encourage the players
along-or most of them did-and even
in the ninth they pulled for victory.
With perfect playing the Barons
would have won yesterday.
While Stockdale twirled superb
game. he was hit oftener than Manuel
and Fleharty combined.
But the old veteran has a head full
of brains and knows how to use them.
And what is more on yesterday he held
his temper. There is no wonder that
he won.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1910-05-03

1t is too early to judge of the COM
petence of Umpire Conahan. He is
possibly the best official in the coun-
try, or he may prove dismal fail
ure.
But in one respect, at least, he made
good in Birmingh am. He never opened
his lips but that a roar from the
grandstand followed. Not a complain
ing roar. mind We, but roar of mer-
riment.
He has a voice. musical, siren-like,
that is joy forever.
He might have scored an error yes
terday, but no one will denly that
his mannerism of speech made a hit
When he cries "Ba W.T." one is remind
ed of the gentle moan of a steam
boat in the distance. And when he
utters Strike" it reminds of the gentle
throated horn of an auto.
Our Barons did not show to advan-
tage yesterday. 1t may have been be-
cause of the fact that the home audi
ence was new to them. They might
have been little too anxious to please
and thus became nervous.
AT any rate there were a number
of bad errors, and a number of plays
that smacked of the over young. Ger
tain ones appeared to tremble when
making plays and others trod the earth
as If it was unfamiliar to them.
There was enough to make Manuel
sore, but little excuse for a complete
loss of temper.

News of scottsboro

Scottsboro, May 1.-(Speeial. Mrs.
Walter Tally died at the home of her
father-in-law, Hon. John B. Tally, in
after an illness of several months. She
was member OF one of the most promi-
nent families in Alabama and Missis-
sippi. She was a deyout Christian and
noted for her many acts of charity. She
was member of the Cumberland Pres
byterian church. The interment took
place In the city cemetery this morn
ing. the services being conducted by the
Rev. r. H. Hartford. assisted by Dr.
Dunn of the Baptist church. The floral
offerings sent from Chattanooga, Nash
vile and Meridian, Miss. were beauti-
full. She is survived by husband, two
brothers and a sister.
Mr.. J. NJ. Cargile, editor Of the Steven
son Chronicle, and Miss Cowsn Stewart
of Carpenter were married recently at
the home Of Mrs. Mary Tinker. The
Rev. w. w. Stout, pastor of the Baptist
church at Bridgeport, performed the

quite surprise to their many friends
and only a few of whom were present.
The couple left for Chattanooga on No.
l and have since returned to Stevenson,
where they will make their home.
Hon. 8. w. Frazier, one of the oldest
and most prominent citizens of this coun-
ty. is dangerously Ill at his country home

loved men in this county. He repre-
sented Jackson county several times in

Barons Drop Opening Game ~!
Dealing With The disappointment OF Yesterday

1t was good TO see the Barons run
down to second even though thcy were
tossed out on every trial
Attempting to steal second when IT
is not proper to play safe is wise eV-
cry time. But in case 1t is possible
to determine just when Stockdale is
wasting strikes in order to catch pill
ferers it would be wiser to wait Just
moment.
Go down to second often and you
will land often. And when you are
on second you are in striking dis
lance of the plate. remnants are won
by base stealers.
Well, Birmingham tumbled yester-
day and now only Mobile separates
this city from the bottom.
But we are but three games be-
hind the 500 mark and should get
back into decent society before the
and of the week.
In case we fail to take advantage
of the opportunity which the present
be guilty of grievous sins of omis-
sion, indeed.
Montgomery, bye defeating New Or
leans a second time yesterday, took
first place in the race. Hurrah for
Montgomery long may she wave!
Nashville defeated Memphis, too, and
Chattanooga had comparatively easy
afternoon with Atlanta. Chattanooga,
incidentally. in case you haven't no.

it's worth W

a Curtiss bi-plane made eight successful
flights here today at the Atlanta aviation

time for two miles was 2:31 2-5.
Tomorrow he promises to clip at least
seconds from the two-mile record and to
attempt to break the quick start record.

montgomery IN new Ol1edus.
In the first game of the long home stay
the Barons appeared a trihe off color. In
the fifth inning they played exceedingly
poorly. In the sixth they were guilty of
some Accountable work on the bases.
Manuel, while being effective, lost his
temper and control of the ball. Stock
dale, the veteran twirler of Mobile, re-
manned steady throughout, and as a re-
suit the visitors triumphed without seri-
Gus trouble. The score was TO ..
Mobile won the game in the fifth. Wag-
ner. first up. was walked. Rhoton bunt-
ed, and Wagner was safe at second when
Newton failed to hold an exceedingly
high throw from Elliot. Dunn bunted
and Wagner was forced at third, though
Emery stepped across the bag and re-
ceived Manuers throw with one hand
Stockdale hunted and Emery was taken
by surprise. The veteran went safe on
the third basemans bad throw and the
bases were full. Watson hit to Manuel,
and instead of retiring the runner at the
plate, the pitcher threw to first and
two were down. Burger then uncorked
q drive to left and took a couple of bases,
two Reedbirds tallying.
The Barons got next to Stockdaie in
their half of the sixth. Elliot opened
with a double to center, and went to
third on Manuers out at first Marcan
was safe on Berger's tumble and bad
throw, and Elliot got across the pan.
Wordsworth then delivered juicily to left,
and Marcan went to third, from which
bag he scored on McBrides sacrifice fly
TO Wagner.
In the seventh Newton beat out a bunt
and was sacrificed. Emory hit TO short
and Newton fell into a chase between
second and third. AS he went out Emery
was caught pacing along between first
and second. and he. too, was killed.
In the eighth Manuel had lost his
temper and the control of the ball. After
Berger had famed, Kerwin, Swacina and
Darringer were walked. F1eharty sue
ceeded at this moment, and walked Wag-
ner, forcing Kerwin across the plate. Rho
ton flied out toMcGilvray, who threw TO
Elliot TO prevent Swacina crossing the
plate The ball bounded from Elliot 8
glove to the middle of the diamond, and
with Fleharty covering the plate Swacina
attempted to score. Elliot hurled the ball
to F1eharty, and though the big fellow
did not touch the horsehide the umpire,
probably deceived by jab of the pitch
ers empty hand, called the runner out.

Though McGilvray reached first in the
