Mobile, September e.-(Speciai)-Sir Michael Finns gallant second placers to be dshed up a variety of ball playing today that was extremely punk, handing over the game to the Birmingham Barons in the first inning of play. The local ath- letes took the field determined to win one more game. which was needed to cinch second place. Probably they thought more of this than they did of the task set out for them, as their minds were anywhere but on their business and as the re- suit of their wobbly efforts in the opening stanza five exceedingly large runs streamed over the plate, the result of four awful errors. Birmingham won to 3.
 Umpire Stockdale, who worked behind the bat, kept the players of both clubs up in the air and squabbing all the time over decisions on balls and strikes, the wee one finally asserting himself in the sixth inning by bouncing Jimmy Johnston from the game. James grew rather peeved and endeavored to fill the umps' glms with handful of dirt, which he grabbed up after Stockdale called what he believed to be a bad strike. Thereafter the players partly soft pedalled the kick ing, inasmuch as a fine accompanied Jimmy out of the game.
 Errors Help Barons
 Twin" Campbell started the moundng for the Gulls and it was through no fault of his that the Barons scored five runs in the first inning. Four errors, all in a row, sent two runs over. while real base hit and a fuke from Ellams bat marked the other two. The Gulls finally managed to get the Barons out after nine men had come to bat
 l. Rrr. allowing but two more hits until he re- tired in the seventh after stopping a couple of hard hit balls with his pitch ing hand. wild Bill' Luhrson succeeded Campbell and was just as effective as the southpaw, working three innings during which time the Barons registered two scratch hits.

Local Organization Conducts Boxing Bouts and Plans for

The organization known as the Pastimc Athletic club seems destined to fill q long felt want in Phoenix. It is the purpose of the club to provide clean athletic entertainment for those who are interested in vari- ous form of athletic endeavor.
 Boxing is to be given revival and the card already pulled off at the Third avenue theater was sufficient to arouse the enthusiasm of the audi dience and to carry an intimation that further programs of the same character will be welcomed.
 The club promoters hope eventually to establish club rooms, with gym nasium and instructor. and to develop talent in every line of sports so that when the call comes Phoenix may have representatives ready to respond t. the challenge.
 The club programs are to be main tained upon strictly amateurish basis. and among the plans for the future are boxing contests, ball games, bowling tournaments. pool and bil- Hard contests and later series of track events.

During the latter years of the Dark Ages the old Roman roads. fallen into ruins by neglect. made their use al most impossible. The only method of transportation in those days was on the backs of mules and horses. Grad ually royalty and wealthy people re- Nivcd the use of carriages. The car etta was q two wheeled cart, q deS- cendant of the ancient chariot This was the method of travel about A. D. 1850 It was in the middle ages that the introduction of wheels with spolles is found. so far as records inform Horses were used but the driver never rode in the vehicle but always rode on the back of the horse. Here is where the direct ancestor of the modern sur rey came into use, and was called cargaretta, having four wheels. Ex- tensive decorations were used on these vehicles, which were so popular about A. D. 1900
 Young men considered it q disgrace to ride in the Queen Elizabeth coach in 1511 because it was considered a wOman's preroGative to ride Small wheels were introduced in front of the large ones in the rear. about A. D. 1700. This permitted the carriage to turn in much shorter space The chaise is a kind of a second cousin to the ancient chariot Its especial characteristic is that the body is sus- pended on long wooden shafts. The calash steps and high wheels are also features. Even today some types of these vehicles may be found.
 About 1SS5 the phaeton came into service. This is a light four-wheeled affair.
 The closing years of the nineteenth century saw the bicycle come into common use. This is considered a descendant of the dandy" or hobby horses. Every one is more or less fla miliar with these different types.
 The automobile. which followed the bicycle. was first called the "horseless carriage"
 Thus the entire effort of man for years to provide quick. efficient and comfortable means of transportation all has it's relative importance. Every step has stood upon the previous one and made the following one possible. The automobile is the evolution of many years of work and study.
