RAISING FUNDS ID |DEFEND M'NAMARAS

Washington, September "A new de- sign .sof the McNamara defense fund stamp, submitted to the postoffice de- partment by the American Federation of Labor, has been approved. Certain objections of the postoffice department caused the change. The new stamp must be placed on the reverse side of the letters.
 Chicago. September 2-Another meth cd of raising funds for the defense of the McNamara brothers, awaiting trial in Los Angeles on the charge of hav ing blown up the Times building in that city, was revealed here today when
 an official order was received from
 Samuel Gompers, president of the that at all union labor picnics held La that all union labor picnics held La

 Labor Day picnics in the large cities by this method.
 In the official order President Com pers says:
 While there will be considerable profit from the sale of these buttons | vet it must be borne in mind that every cent is necessary and will be utilized in the defense of our men and prosecution of the kidnapers. If l the button Is worn generally, the dem- onstration will be a mighty protest

 and Baseball Game in
 Birmingham
Standing of T. c. I. League

The above standing may seem somewhat strange, but during the last week the Semet-Solvay team and the mines have been dropped from the league, leaving only four teams in the league.
 Although the Mechanics won the game of yesterday and the Accountants lost the Electricians won, bringing themselves within half game of the Mills. The season is just about half over as yet and no one team has cinched the rag and the town will no doubt see some fine and closely contested games during the next two monthsJ
 The weaker teams of the league will strengthen themselves before the end of the season as they expect to land some of the former Cotton States and South Atlantic league players as soon as the teams disband
 In the game of yesterday the Account ants added some more men to their ranks. Blanchfield, Crews and Foster who play ed with the Accountants are just from the disbanded Cotton States league and Ely, a Mechanic, is said to have been a former professional. The town will no doubt see some classy ball soon.

Direct Mail Delivery

The new arrangement for the direct delivery of the mail will go into effect about the middle of the month, it IS thought. As soon as the successful bidder for the transportation of the mail from the railroad stations to the office is announced and approved by the. Washington authorities he will be given the contract and then mail serv- ice will become much improved.
 Postmaster Thomas states that the successful bidder will be announced in the near future and that when it is put into effect Ensley will enjoy much bet ter mail service. IL may be stated that many complaints have been rendered by the merchants and the business men on account of the poor service. At present all of the mail Is sent to the Birmingham office It is there as- sorted and placed in mail bag and taken to the street cars, which bring it to Ensley. In this manner much time is lost and there is no mail serv- ice at all on Sunday.
 The bids for the construction of the new S75,000 postoffice will be sent in on Septembeue T. and it is thought that shortly afterwards the contract will be awarded and work will be commenced. Tt is said that six contractors will bid on this construction work

No Labor Day Celebration

No definite plans have been announced as yet for the celebration of Labor Day
 at Ensley. The Tennessee company s
 plant will run and some of the workers have announced that they will celebrate
 the day in it's literal meaning. It is thought that the celebration of this day in Ensley was postponed on account of the above fact and the ctll- CT celebrations held in Birmingham
 Fully 1000 will go to see the ball game in Birmingham and it is thought that about twice that number will attend the celebration in town
 The Ensley club announces that it ras formulated no plans whatever for the celeb and as no notices or circu-
 lars have been distributed it is though that all have decided to hold just ont
 monstrous meeting in town.

Reonens Grocery Store

Frank ]. Lange, one of the best known grocery men in Ensley, has re- opened his former place of business on Avenue E. The new firm will be known as F. J. Lange & Sons, he having taken his two sons, Fred and Clarence, into partnership. There is no more favor ably known citizen in the Ensley dis trict than MT. Lange. Coming here from Cleveland 12 years ago, he entered the employ of the Alabama Steel and Wire company, filling the position of ship ping clerk with marked ability
 A little later he entered the gro- cery business and by his uniform court esy and close application he soon built up a fine trade. While he has never sought office he has been closely iden- tified with civic affairs of Ensley and has always stood boldly for what he conceived to be for the best interests of the city. A year ago he sold out his business having accumulated a fair competency, but has re-entered the bus mess again with his two boys as part ners, and the success of the new firm is assured.

Mechanics Are Victors

Before 1900 enthusiastic fans the me- chanical department defeated the account ing department of the T. c. l. league by the score of fl to ,. The game was an uphill battle from the beginning and two pitchers were driven from the box of the Accountants, one of them being no less than the famed Sexton, the leagues lead ing pitcher.
 In the beginning, after the Accountants had been shut out in their half, the first man up for the Mechanics, Bell, singled to left. Following Forsythe's strilIeout, McGlaun made an infield hit. Then sin gles by Holtz and Ramage netted them three runs.
 The Accountants scored in their half on an error a hit and a stolen base In the last half of the second Sexton was driven out of the box when Pierre sim gled, Ely was given a base on balls, a three bagger by Bell a double by For sythe and single by McGlaun. This batting rally gave the Mechanics three more runs.
 The Accountants did not score again until the fifth while the Mechanics made two runs off Nunnally. the new pitcher. Then in the fifth the Mechanics murder ed the pitcher by making a total of six runs off his delivery. He was taken out of the pot and "Dodo" Foster substi- tuted. He fared better but the Mechanics had already cinched the victory.
 The feature of the game was the heavy hitting of the Mechanics and the individ- ual sluggng of Bell. He made single and two three baggers out of five times at bat Bradley Brown umpired the game to the general satisfaction of all, although there were several close decis- ions.
