Secret Society Among Sese Islander.

The Sese islanders have attained 9 peculiar notoriety in Uganda because of |; secret society called the Bachichi which is not a burial society, although It's members take a deep and intelli- gent interest in all deaths and burials in their midst. In the more retired vii lages. although greatly discouraged by the British authorities, 1t is said to be still the custom for the sorrowing rel. atives to bear the body of the deceased wrapped in bark on a rough bier to some forest thicket, desolate ravine or other unfrequented spot, where 1t is left unburied by the bearers. who nev. CT revisit the place again. The Bachi chi. who are denizens of neighborina village, and distant relatives of the deceased avoid the necessity of burial or cremation and show their respec, for the deceased by simply eating him National Magazine.

The Alabama and Sewanee teams, which clash this afternoon on Redwood Field reached Birmingham yesterday after noon.
 The Tigers are in fine condition. Ala bama, with the exception of the fact that "Chugr Hurd. strong end. is on the injured sAst with cracked elbow, am nounces feady in trim condition.
 The game this afternoon will start at 8;So o'clock, and in spite of the fact that the preponderance of pre-hattle dope favors the Tigers, il is believed that a rattling good contest will follow when the two aggregations clash
 From the indications ideal football weather will obtain and the ground will be fast enough for each team to put it's speed to the test and each if rumor is correct, will depend chiefly on the rapidity of it's motion.
 Sewanee is a strong contender for first honors of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic association. The purple clad warriors have an excellent backfeld. the best in the south, it is probable, pair of splendid ends but a line which, when compared to the other departments of defense, shows up in an unfaVorable light. Harris Cope, coach, has given his team a fine repertoire of formations, and many of these will be uncorked this aft ernoon.
 The Alabama team will be outweighed about 10 ponnds to the man, and the speed of the visitors is said to be greater. Alabama, to date, has made the most miserable showing in it's history, but fol-

flowing each defeat those scrappy little giants who defend the Crimson White goal rally to the new slaughter with un- paralleled courage. From advance in-
 formation the Alabama team will open
 with few real formations this after noon, worthy of admiration on account of their originality and effectiveness. There are many hundreds of Alabama followers in Birmingham who believe that there is talent and gameness enough at Ala bama te carry the Crimson White to victory, and these have been endued, with renewed hope because of the promise that the thin red line" has at last been upholstered with formations and knowl
 edge of the game.
 Sewanee, it is said. will endeavor only to defeat Alabama, and will not run the risk of injurng any of it's men because of the Vanderbilt struggle, which is yet to come But it is very probable that Sewanee will have it's hands full to an- neN a victory over the lads from the oaks of Tuscaloosa. Alabama is remem- bering that the University of Memphis held Sewanee to a single touchdown, and that that score, following a sensational run of s yards, smacl1ed of a fiuke. And with this practical defeat of the Tigers by a prep. school before them they will endeavor to put the mountain Tigers out of the running by one fell swocp.
 It will be the first football game played on Redwood Field. It will be the first and last appearance of Sewanee in Br- mingham this season. For these and other reasons the crowd should be a big one. The sport promises to be splendid even though the score may be lopsided.

ZIET MINSKI SAVES THE DAY
 FOR THE BIRMINGHAM HIGH

Overconfidence came very near defeat ing the High school team in it's game against Disque High school of Gadsden yesterday afternoon, but the local boys rallied in the last quarter, with the score 6 to against them, and made two goals from placement The final score was Il to in favor of Birmingham High school.
 In the first half High school was played off its feet, its line ripped to pieces, and the interference smashed by the savage playing of the Disque bunch. For time the Disque line was impenetrable and the High school was forced to depend on punts and end runs
 In the second half, however, the High school frightened up and began to hold the plunging backs of the opposing team. Gradually the men recovered from thefr first surprise and began to force the ball into hostile territory. In steady bucks they advanced 1t within striking dis tance of Disque's goal. and Zeminski made a sensational run around right end for touchdown, failing to kick goal
 The last quarter opened with the score s to against them, and they were des- perate. Zieminski was practically the only man that could go through the line, and he bucked the ball within 15 yards of the goal when 1t went over on a tumble. The performance was repeated and the girls in the bleachers were get ting anxious. By magnificent work ziel- minsk, assisted by Wood and Seawright, carried the ball to the 20-yard line and

MARION DEFEATS
 THE ANNISTON' TEAM

Marion, November n.-(Special)- Flushed with an unbroken series of vic tories, the football team of Anniston Presbyterian college went down in defeat before the superior playing of the Ma rion Institute eleven by score of Il to 6.

Savannah November 11.-Neither death nor injury of driver or mechanician marred the first day of the races of the Savannah Automobile club, held under the auspices of the Automobile Club of Amer ica- The day did not pass. however, without levying' it's possible toll of life, but the casualty was but incidental. Willie Rice, 12-year-old boy. watching the races, had his skull crushed by a falling sign post. He is reported dying at hospital.
 The coolness and skill of at least two of the drivers saved them and their me chanicians from death or injury. They had calls as close as fall to the lot of those wfao risk life and limb in speed trials, but their lucky stars were in the ascendant. With whole skins but quak ing knees they emerged from experiences that called forth all they had of resource fulness
 Promptly at 10 o'cloc1. amid the cheer ing cries of several thousand spectators who had come from far and wide, the two races began, six starters in the Sa vannah challenge race and eight in the Tedeman trophy race being called to the mark by Starter Fred Wagner at the same time First on tho line was Hughie Hughes. in his Falcar. As he got the count and the parting slap on the back from the starter he gave his car the power and it bounded forward for the race that was not to end for nearly five hours. At 30 second intervals the other entrants for both races followed.
 Dawson's Great start
 Keenly interested in the start and watching every car with breathless at tention. the crowd sent salvos of applause after it's favorites. Then, catching its breadth, 1t sat back to await the reap pearance of the cars as they rounded the erandstand turn, First to show was Lou Heinemann In his Marmon Starting sec ond, he passed Hughes In quick order then they came with Dawson showing the fastest time, IS minutes and 20 sec onds for the first lap. The start he got in that lap he never lost. maintaining his ad dvantage to the end of the race. Not once did he stop, not even for water or gasoline No other car in the long race had such a record Soon 1t was clear to those who were following the race closely that the Savannah trophy, should noth- ing untoward chance, would fall to Daw- son, Frank Gelnaw in his Falcar, or Roebling in his Mercer. Then the ninth lap saw the elimination of Gelnaw
 His steering went bad and on a back stretch he lost control and his car, went at tremendous speed along the soft ground at the edge of the road. ploughed through one bank, leaped on another, and only came to a stop when 1t had been battered almost to pieces. He and his mechanic escaped without a scratch. Gel naw's mishap left Roebling as Dawson chief competitor Roebling lost nearly a minute by q stop for fuel but was going strong until near disaster overlook him on the sixteenth and last lap His car skidded, crashed into palmetto tree and damaged the wear and control so tna' driver and mechanician found themselves with no brake and with but one speed and that the highest.

 Knipper averaged 5S A miles an hour and unquestionably could have done much
 better Two years ago a Lancia of the
 same power on this course showed only 2.59 miles.
 In the Savannah trophy race, with higher power cars than those in the
 Tiedeman race, Dawson showed an aver
 age speed of S2.2S miles an hour, which
 was considerable more than it was be- lieved would be showd by any car in the race.
 When the races were over the winners drove before the grandstand, where they were presented huge bouquets by Cover nor Brown of Georgia With fair weather, though bit cooler than that of today, predicted for tomor- row, the Grand Prize race is expected to

dangling behind on the ground Roebling had thought himself ahead of all others. having no signal code arranged with pit men and taking the cries of spectators along the course to mean that victory was in sight
 When Hughes finished third Heinemann was somewhere on the back stretch on his fifteenth lap. The race was then de- clared finished. Another contestant, J. w. Pearce, in Falcar, had broken an axle in the ninth lap, after some spectacular speeding.
 At about 2:35 o'clock the winner of the Savannah trophy finished.
