Jimmie Austin works at third base
like a rubber ball. He was kept out

He had one weakness-he wasn't q
reliable thrower. As soon as this be-
came apparent clubs with sufhcient
speed started their men around the
bases in endless parade. Every club
Schmidt went against tried this IL
their men were fast enough, and he
was called upon TO make three times
the number of throws q steadier man
would have had.
One commendable thing about
Schmidt, he never logged on the job.
Before a younger man came along to
show to better advantage, Schmidt
was about all Detroit had behind the
bat and he was good enough that the
club won three pennants even though
1t was "burdened" by his presence a.
some fans now seem to think.
Baseball patrons are prone to for

"Mullin. Mullin!" and tout him as the

him from the lot. There Is no consid,
Grafton for the individual--the games

groaned when Schmidt made q play
for which Mullin was responsible, be-
cause a younger man has come for

 beneath the roof The shingles were broken, and the beds, on account of the great number of victims, had to be placed so closely that the drip pans, which were employed to catch the floods or rain. could no longer be kept on the floor, but were placed upon the beds
 "The treatment consisted chiefly or stimulation, and the raw ward whisky was used for this purpose. On one oe- cason, in the dead of winter, visited the ward, and ordered an increased ration of today for all the patients because or the extreme cold. There were no suitable means of heating the garret. Early the next morning, fearful that disaster might have overtaken my patients, I rose and struggled to the hospital through a blind ing blizzard which had been raging since the afternoon before. On climbing the last steps and opening the creaking door, I encountered a horrible sight. My two debauched, penitentiary prisoners-lay in a drunken stupor upon the floor Snow had drifted in through the rlfts in the rotten roof and lay in great white sheets about the room. It had been in part brushed away by the dying patients. On 12 beds its surface was unbroken. The nurses had drunk their patients liquor, and during the night 12 victims had died"

Kings Out of I0hS

Young Manuel of Portugal is by no means the only royal exile. England is, as a rule, the Mecca of ex-kings and pretenders, and there are many of them living in the tight little isle to- day. The Duke of Orleans, claimant to the French throne, lives there,g and so does Eugenie. ex-empress of that coun- try She is a Spaniard by birth, but when she was driven out of France she went to England. where, at Farnbor- ough, she has lived nearly 40 years Dom Miguel the Portuguese preten- der, lives in Austria. In Turkey Ab- prisoner. and Abdul Aziz of Morocco is no longer a sultan but a pretender. The ex-queen of Madagascar lives com fortably in Algeria, while Queen Liliu- okalani of Hawaii lives where she pleases. Our own Sutton of Sulu re- ceives a pension from the United States and he is supposed to be enjoy ing himself at present travelling in- cognito in this country.
 The Czar of Russia barely escaped deposition, and no crowned head is as secure as crowned heads were two or three hundred years ago. Slowly but surely kings are going out of fashion, and the success of the great American republic jars all of them from time to time

Fine Cotton Weather

The cool weather did not bring kill Ing frosts except In limited districts of northern Texas and in Oklahoma. The damage done to the cotton crop was slight, and the prospect now is that no general killing frost will be felt in the cotton belt until Novem her. when the crop will practically be beyond injury.
 It was the weather situation that had induced English buyers to revise their estimates of the crop. They look for crop exceeding perhaps 12,Ooo,ooo bales. This revision led to drop in cotton prices in this country as well as Tn Europe, but the governments ginning report issued yesterday threw the market the fine weather of the last 60 days into a panic, and prices shot up from 20 to 40 points.
 While the crop has come along well in will doubtless tend to high levels, with, of course, reactions from time to time Certain it Is that any sharp decline would be sternly resisted by all farmers who can carry their cotton through the winter months.

Preparing to Fight the Fee System

President Ford of the Chamber of Commerce has selected as committee ao present the effects of the fee sys- tenn on the labor situation in this dis trict S. J. Bowie, J. w. Mcqueen, w. w. Crawford, J. D. Moore and W. D.. Jelks.
 This is an excellent committee, and it has signal opportunity for serving this district and particularly this city. The fee brigade is daily driving away by it's sordid and despicable methods the hum ble laborer and common humanity as well as the welfare of this district calls for a termination of policy that all other progressive states have abolished. Alabama is tardy in this matter because of the influence wielded over rural legis- lators by courthouse rings, and because of section that was gumshoed into the constitution of 1901 by those rings.
 But tie committee just appointed may be able to find way around all ob'
