 However other magnates discussed freely the situation with a reporter, and it was pointed out that MT. Wilcox. q former official of the Montgomery club, was in the city as an agent of the Tillis interests to take over the franchise of Mobile. When questioned on this MT. Wilcox laughingly replied that he was out of baseball, but that everything would be known following the directors meet ing.
 That something is. brewing in Southern league circles was clearly evident by the earnest manner of the confab at the Tut wller last night. This Is a lean year in baseball and further retrenchments are possible
 IL was pointed out last night that the scheoule of the league is faulty Teams nave such long string of games at nome that the crowds-even of the win ming ciubs-fall off Yesterday with Rir- mingham in second place the crowd was so small that Little Rock received but g. over her guarantee. It was stated that the Birmingham public was wearied of baseball for the time being. but when the Barons returned from the road trip the crowds would come back
 All of these matters will receive con- sideratisn this morning at the meeting which will be attended by all the moguls of the Southern.

 Every young man should develop ths sense of his military as well as of his civil responsibilities. A country whose youth are keenly interested in their mili- teryduties and who are prepared to dis charge them will always have a larger measure of peace than a country which lies open to attack. 1t is not enough to be willing. We must be prepared. The idea of preparedness is not new for we have it from Washington and Jefferson.
 T hope that this movement started here at Culver may be copied throughout the country, and that military schools especially will take it up"
