such a large question before them. This
Is where johnson is wrcrg In his whole

Umpire System Bad.
Ban Johnston can greatly stimulate
interest in our games all over this
league. II he will make It a point to
visit his parks and see how his umpires
are working. Also. he should give his
own personal attention to the shifting
Of these officials. 1t is unfair to a ball
club to have the same umpires for three
and four series at time.
Suppose an umpire makes a mistake
in the first game and gets the home
team and the home fans down on him.
What chance has he to do good work
after that before those same PLAYERS
and those same fans for several weeks {?
Mighty little. I'll tell you. and his

wants better games.
This latest order of Johnson's that
the players must not chase fouls is fool

In the first place. it doesn't shorten

Bunk In Argument. (
There is a lot of bunk in this argtr-

public the kind OF baseball that we

COLOREO MAN
OF NATIONAL
NOTE TO MORE
DIR. J.. S. JACKSON, REGARDED AS
ONE OF THE GREATEST MEN
THAT HIS RACE HAS PRO-
DUcED, WILL BE HERE DURING
LATTER PART OF WEEK.

Evangelistic services for one week
beginning tonight, will be held at Mt
Moriah church, colored, and will begin
under very favorable circumstances, as
the services of some of the best min
listers of the city have been secured,
also DR.. J. S. Jackson Of Philadelphia
will deliver a series Of sermons. The
program for the week will be as fol-
lows: Tonight, DR.. r. H. Danes,
pastor of Allen chapel, will preach:
Tuesday night there will be an old
fashioned class meeting; Wednesday
night DR.. T. NJ. Binion will deliver a
sermon; on Thursday and Friday
nights and all day Sunday DR.. Jack
son Of Philadelphia will occupy the
pulpit.
DR.. Jackson is one of the greatest
men that his race has produced and is
directly interested and engaged in
nearly every movement put forth for
general advancement of his people.
AS general financial secretary of the
A. NJ. E. Zion church of America he
receives and disburses yearly more
than $50, 900, and is a director of the
Penny Savings bank of Birmingham,
Ala, the largest negro bank in the
world with deposits of more than a
half million dollars and a capital Of
100000. He is trustee Of both Ltv-
ingstone college at Salisbury, n. c.,
and the Lomax- Harmon High and In
dustrial school Of Greenville, Ala. He
served a long term as state treasurer
of Alabama for the odd Fellows, and
it is conceded that he will be elected
to the Zion bench of bishops in 1915.
He is one of the best preachers in the
country and hundreds of persons have
confessed under his powerful serm-
ons.
The public is cordially invited to at
tend the services each night during
the week and on Sunday. Ample seats
will be provided for white persons who
wish to attend the meeting. They
may phone No. if special seats are
desired.
To Aaron Brown, who is also one
OF the general secretaries of the A.
NJ. E. Zion church, is due the credit
Of having DR.. Jackson to visit Pen
sacola at this time. Secretary Brown
has succeeded in letting the big men
of the Zion church and race know that
Pensa cola is on the map.

Naples, Sept. 2S.-The Duchess OF
Aosta is getting ready to quit civiliza-
ton for six or seven months and go
hunting again in the African jungIes
On her last trip three years ago she
brought back with her 2 native boy,
who will now return with her; but she
will be accompanied to Africa by no
other companion. Since her last trip
she has industriously studied the diff
ferent dialects with her negro boy
protege and declares herself able to
penetrate into the wilderness alone
with him.
She will take only such baggage as
the boy can carry on his back. Her
dress will consist of leather breaches
and a rough shooting coat, with which
she will year heavy boots of strong
leather, made especially for tramping
IN the forests.
The duchess is going after big
game and intends to do some explor-
ing also, following the tracks of some
Of the famous explorers through the
Congo. She will not explain her plans
in detail even to her family declaring
that she does not know them herself
in detail. She fully intends, however,
to penetrate far into the equatorial
district and to fraternize with the ma
tives. No letters are to be expected
from her for months and she does not
intend to have any reach her from her
family.
The duchess, who is in her forty
third year, has twice before left her
husband and children to explore At
RIGA; first in 1903 and again IN 1910.
The last time she was gone nearly a
year and brought back TO Naples such
a collection of trophies as to give her
d record for big game shooting as
good as some of the famous masculine
hunters of the world
Each trip the duchess has made into
Africa has been preceded by rqmors OF
a divorce from her husband, and the
usual rumors are going the rounds
since the third trip has been an
bounced.
These rumors are hardly likely to
be true, as she and her husband have
in reality been separated for many
years and actually see very little of one
another except when it is necessary for
them TO appear together at public
functions.
The marriage would never have been
arranged but the duchess believed that
the present king Of Italy was in such
feeble physical condition that he could
never hope to become the father OF
family. The Duke of Aosta, as the next
heir to the throne, would thus make
her Queen of italy some cay, or she

For the bearing tree nitrogen per

of the tree trunk.
Orange trees should be kept well

the weeds from draining the soil of
moisture and nutrition. After the tree
is a few years old this will not be so
necessary as the shade from the tree
