CHALLENGE PENSACOLA TO POST
SEASON SERIES, OFFERING
TO POST $1,000.

Jackson, Miss, July 30,-The contro-
versy between Pensacola and Jackson
over the award of the pennant in the
Cotton States League has evolved an
unique sporting proposition.
A coterie of Jackson baseball fans,
confident in the belief that the Law
makers were in every way superior to
the Snappers. on the diamond, have
offered to post stake of $4,000 for a
post-season series of seven games be-
tween the two teams.
If the hackers of the Pensacola team
are in a mood to accept the PROPOSE
ton, they will find 81 900 deposited
with the Merchants Bank & Trust
company as an evidence of good faith,
the remainder to be deposited as soon
as $1,000 is received from Pensacola.
The conditions imposed are that the
two teams are to be recognized i'm
mediately. with the same players used

make the offer are financially able to
carry it out, and eagerly await an an

Nearly all OF the Jackson players

REPUBLICANS
IN No HURRY
NOT PROPOSE TO HASTEN
CONSIDERATION OF BILLS.

Washington, July 3O.-Republican
senators made it clear Tuesday that
they do not propose to hasten consid-
Grafton of the tariff bill if the Presi-
dent and Democratic leaders of Con-
gress are going to insist upon the
enactment of currency legislation at
this session. Senator Gallinger de-
clared that the Republicans were in
no temper to be forced, and Senator
Lodge insisted that assurances of
prolonged hot summer session would
not be conducive to fastening the tar
if action.
Discussion or this point arose when
Senator Gallinger sought information
as to the intent of the Democrats.
Senator Simmons said he hoped that
the Republicans were not making
threats purposely to delay passage of
the tariff, which all business interests
wanted settled speedily Republican
Senators assured him that they were
making no threats, but that it was
bound to follow that there would be
little haste with the tariff unless an
early adjournment should be the in
ducement therefor
Senator Gallinger said thai reading
in the morning papers every day that
the President would insist on holding
Congress here to enact currency legis-
lation would not speed up action on
the tariff. Senator Lodge added that
it was most unwise to demand action
on such important legislation as the
currency of a "tired-out Congress"
Progressive Republicans disclaimed
any intention to delay voting on the
tariff unnecessarily, despite what else
might be in store, Senator Borah de-
claring that statements to the contrary
from other sources did not express the
view of all on the minority side.
Following an attack on the bill by
Senator Sterling of South Dakota, lit
tie progress was made in considera-
ton of the earthenware schedule, sew
eral hours being occupied in discuss
ing the rates on pumicestone and
| fluorspar.

THIS is MY 10TH Birthday"
William II. Mann.

William Hodges Mann, governor of
Virginia, was born in williamsburg,
Va, July 80, 1S43. His education was
received in an academy at Browns
burg, Va. His first public office was
that of deputy clerk of Nottoway coun-
ty, to which he was appointed in 1859.
AT the beginning of the civil war he
resigned his position and enlisted as
a private in Virginia regiment of in
fantry. Soon after, however, he was
obliged to retire from active service
on account of an injury he had re-
ceived. During the latter part of the
war he acted as a scout in the opera
tons around Petersburg. When peace
had been declared he took up the
study of law and in 1867 was admitted
to the bar. Three years later he was
elected county judge of Nottoway
county. His service on the bench

ten, Jack Dana, Pete Curley and
Louis Redmond. For the benefit of
those who were unable to get out last
night on account of the weather the
boys minstrels will be given again
Friday night at the Hub Airdome. Mr..
Bernard, who is instructing the boys,
states that by the time the boys have
rehearsed another time or two they
will be almost as good as profession
ais. The vaudeville at the Airdome is
being enjoyed by everyone. Jimmy
Cooper, with his eccentric and clever
monologue and Trone & Trone in their
many clever acts, will be sure to
please.

LID GOES ON IN
MERIDIAN SUNDAY
BLUE LAWS WILL BE STRICTLY
NFORCED-LoVELY TIMES
ARE IN PROSPECT.

Meridian, Miss, July 30.-According
to announcement made by the city
authorities. the lid will go on in this
city next Sunday. Acting upon the
Mayor Parker will order everything
closed and discontinued Sunday that
appears to be forbidden by a strict
construction of the statutes. 1t is
said that no daily papers can be de-
livered on Sunday; that garages must
be closed; that the gas works can
supply only gas for cooking purposes,
which, under the law, is considered
household necessity; that electric pow
err cannot be furnished for running
fans in churches and elsewhere; that
the factories cannot keep up the fires
in their boilers on the Sabbath; there
can be no drinks sold by the soda
fountains or by anyone else; that
cigar stands cannot be opened; that
the band which is working for pay
cannot give concerts Sunday after
noon at Highland Park. The street
cars can be run, the ice wagons can
run, the meat markets can supply
their customers and the drug stores
can supply medicine.
The drastic enforcement Of the Sun
day law is proposed, it is believed, as
the result of ministers and others de-
manding the adjustment of the re-
stricted district and the enforcement
of all laws of whatsoever character.
1t is also believed that there will be
such a general protest that the Sun
day law will not be enforced longer
than two or three Sundays. One OF
the most drastic features Of the Sun
day law is that milk cannot be deliy-
cred, and it is said that this may
cause suffering to babies. Lovely
times appear to be in prospect.

ATTACK
ON SUFFRAGETTES

Washington, July 30.-Dr. Albert
Taylor Bledsoe's recently published at
tack upon Northern women for their
espousal of equal suffrage, reprinted
in the Congressional Record at the re-
quest of Senator Tillman, drew bitter
comments and objection from Senators
Gallinger, Works, Bristow and Thomas,
under which Mr. Tillman withdrew the
article and all reference to it was or
dered stricken out.
Senator Gallinger characterized it as
an insult to Northern women. Insult
ing and outrageous" was Senator Bris-
lows declaration.
Mr.. Tillman explained he had not
read all the article and meant to offer
no objection.
