PROHIBITION sptAslNc
Rev lef'fies Speaks on the Cues.
ton Of Prohibition, and Makes
Many Good Points

Rev. Jenries Of the Nazarene
church, who has been conducting
the revival meeting that has been
In progress at that church In this
city for several days closed the
revival services with the Sunday
night service and announced that
on Monday night he would speak
on the prohibition subject from a
legal point of view.
A good crowd accordingly as.
sembled in that church to hear
his discourse, both pros and
ants. and we are sure they were
well paid for the time they spent
in attending this service. Mr..
Jeffries was at his best, and
made the fur fly everytime he
wanted to.
He took for his text the 10Th
chapter and first verse of Prov
cribs, which reads in part. Wine
is a Mocker; Strong Drink is
Raging, etc. He handled the
proposition of personal liberty on
the question, and proved to the
satisfaction of the major part of
the audience that there was
nothing to that part of the ants
argument. He next landed on
the Non-enforcement clause of
the anti side of the contention.
Again he landed on the local OPP
tionists who say they are local
optionists and not state widers.
He handled the question without
gloves. The contention that the
law cannot be enforced he stated
was a dead give way on the part
Of the ants that they intended
to violate the law themselves if
such a law was passed, for no
others would violate them.
He vent further and gave
statistics showing that fifty per
cent Of the inmates of the insane
asylum and of the state peniten-
tiary can trace their downfall to
the saloon and the stuff that they
sell.
He brought out many splendid
points that would be hard to get
around the truth of them, and we
consider the address one of the
ablest that has been delivered on
the question in this town.

MEEK FAILS TO
 RECOVER SALARY

Chattanooga, March 24.-(Special. J. President o. B. Andrews of the local club was advised by John H. Farrell secretary of the National Board of Ar bitration, that the salary claim of Herre Meek against the Chattanooga club for s420 had not been allowed. The board ruled that the action of President An drews in suspending Meek was entirely justified in view of the facts in the case
 The basis of Meeks suit, it will be re- membered, was that he had been sus- pended without cause and his salary dis allowed from the day of suspension. President Andrews action in suspendina the Lookouts colossal backstopper was due to his indifference in a game played with Birmingham on July 8, when Wag her and Siever were the opposing twirl CTS. With men on first and third, Meek signaled Sieyer for a throwout, so he claims, catching Molesworth's signal, who was on first, that he was going down on the next ball. Instead Siever used a curve ball which Meek deliberately allowed to go by him, permitting one man to score and Molesworth to take third. Meek claimed that he was unable to intercept the ball, but President Andrews thought otherwise, and apparently so did the com mission. In justice to Meek, however, 1t must be stated that the official scorer gave Siever a wild pitch and not Meek passed ball

NEW RAGING RULES
 HAS BEEN ADOPTED

Lexington, Ky, March Exchanges in the rules for Kentucky racing, doubly important in view of the death of racing in New York, were passed by the Kentucky racing commission here today. It is now provided in meetings at tracks whose immediate territory contains a population of more than ,000-meaning Latonia and Louisville. No purse al spring meet ing shall be for les than $500 nor at autumn meetings for less than S4O0 in cities of between 30,000 and 10000 pop ulation-referring to Lexington the purse limits are $500 and $250 for the respective seasons.
 After 1911 all guaranteed stakes are to be prohibited. This means that the Latonia derby, for example, must give the winners all fees paid in for entries and declarations instead of being held to the guarantee of 5000 value.

 The majority of other Southern league managers believe as does the wiley leader of the Pelicans. And when the opening day rolls around, it is very probable that there viii be half a dozen clubs of this company with excellent slab depart ments.
 At the preesnt time, New Orleans, Mem pbis, Chattanooga and Montgomery have first rate staffs.

SETON IS LOST
 TO THE VOLUNTEERS

Nashville, March 24.-Pitcher Vedder Sitton of the Volunteer championship team of 1908. will not be member of the Volunteer team this season as formerly announced
 He was promised to Nashville by Co., lumbus, in the American association, where he played last season, on the con- dition that waivers could be gotten on him from the other clubs in the associa- tion. When the Columbus club asked for waivers there were two clubs that refused to waive, thereby preventing Sitton from leaving the league. The consequence was that Columbus decided to hold on to him.
 This Is bad news for the local fans who had been banking on this star twirler as one of the Volunteer mainstays of this season. However, Teddy Bair is spir- hall artist very much on the order of Sitton and claimed by many to be just as good as the original.
