test these convictions were her daily
guide.
Mrs. Butler was well and favorably
known in Ordway, where the family
has resided at different times.
Another death in this vicinity was
that of John Carson, who was buried
a week ago Sunday. Mr.. Carson had
long been a sufferer of consumption
and has made his home in various
parts of the country seeking health.
A year ago he, with his wife, settled
on a homestead in this vicinity and
soon Mr.. Carson began to improve
in health. When the late fall arriv-
ed the improvement was so marked
that Mr.. Carson decided to make a
visit to his parents at Jet. Okla. Soon
after his arrival at home he contract
ed a cold which soon brought back
the old trouble. Early this spring
Mr.. and Mrs. Carson returned 10
their claim, but it was too late for
climatic healing powers and Mr.. Car
son gradually grew worse until death
made its final claim. Funeral SER
vices were conducted by the Rev. w.
H. Barlow at the family home. A
quartet, consisting of Mr.. and Mrs.
P. H. Wolfe. Miss Jessie Emerson
and Mr.. John Mcdaniel. rendered
several vocal selections.

YALE DEFEATED BY PENN VARSITY CREW Yale Unable to Keep Pace Set by Penn-Yale
 Juniors Lose

Philadelphia April 22.--The University Of Pennsylvania varsity eight-oared shell crew defeated Yale over the mile and a half course on the Schuyllxill river to- day by one boats length. Yale's junior crew beat Pennsylvania juniors by a quarter of a length. Todays races were Pennsylvania's first under the coaching of Joe Wright, the Canadian oarsman.
 Both varsity crews got away together, each doing considerable splashing. Penn sylvania, propelled by the fast and pow erful strokes of Harry Ross, struck a forty-to-the minute clip. Yale, whose pace was set by Hartman, rowing somewhat slower, kept pace with Pennsylvania for quarter mile. Neither was able to gain any advantage in the first 1la1f-mile, but starting at this point Pennsylvania forged akead. At the mile Pennsylvania was leading by a quarter of length, which was increased as the crews approached the finish. Pennsylvania time was ' minutes 30 seconds. &
 Yales junior crew led the Pennsylvania juniors throughout their race. Yale's time was minutes 2S 2-5 seconds
 The difference in time between the var sity and junior races was due to change in conditions. The juniors had wind at thelr back while the varsity race was roWed in a calm.

FINE SCORES MADE
 AT RIFLE PRACTICE
Local Infantry Companies of National Guard Hold Weekly Shoot at
 Boyles Range

The local infantry companies of the Alabama National Guard heId their regu- lai weekly rifle practice on the Boyles range yesterday afternoon The weather conditions were excellent, and the boys hung up some good scores. Great im- provcinen. Is noted in the shooting of the newly enlisted men. who seem to be learning the mysteries of the Springfield rifle very rapidly. The shooting was from the ao0-yard line at military "A" target. with eight-inch bull rseye.
 Twenty officers and men from Com panies B and Of the Second regiment and Company K. Fourth regiment, took part.
 The weekly Thigh gun medal of the Jefferson Volunteers. Company K, Fourth infantry, was won by Corp. Ellis Bedsole, with a score of S2. Corp. Harry t.. Smith was second with s0 Musician Foun- tain Kirkland was high gun for the con- pany, with s3 but under the rules was disqualified from competing for the medal, as he won it last week.

ping it. He must have juggled the ball for at least 30 seconds, and when it finally dropped to the ground the stands roared.
 Roy Ellams Nashville club came to grief yesterday for the second time this season, when they bumped into a defeat at the hands of the Look outs. The Ellamites were able to gather but three hits and one run, while the Lookouts were tapping the Vol pitchers for 10 hits and runs. Three errors by Nashville contributed to their defeat also.
 Memphis nosed out a victory over the Travellers in the tenth inning yes- terday, winning to 3. The Travellers are certainly having hard sledding, but it may be that they have not struck their stride as yet.
 Perryman, Black, Johnson and Rob- ertson now have games to their credit and the Preacher Perryman has two. Perry will probably be used in one of the games at Mobile today and Grimes is slated to pitch the other one, but Molesworth has not fully decided who he will use. He still has Miller in reserve and it may be that the youngster will be given a chance to show against Schmidt's team.
 Dropping four games in row must have been heart-breal1ing to Mobile fans, but the Barons simply had it on the Gulls. Schmidt tried every pitcher he had save Covington and Townsend. It is possible that he is saving these for the games today. These veterans were the cream of his last years hurling staff.
 One brief little road trip and then the team will be here for 21 long, delicious games.

The Birmingham college baseball team win play Southern university of Greens boro series of two games tomorrow and Tuesday on Munger field.
 The Southern boys have made a good showing so far this season as shown by the games with Howard Friday and yesterday.
 These games should prove very inter- esting for Southern has been defeating Marion some good games. Marion in turn defeated the Methodists few days ago. Although dope favors the Southern boys Birmingham will try to duplicate the de- feats of last season. The Methodsts have gotten in several good practices this week and are in good condition to make Southern again take the count.
 This is Southern's first visit to the Magic City in several years and a large crowd should attend these games.
 It is probable that Nation. the star southpaw, will do mound duty for Coach Pinson. Nation has been going good this season and with tEe past week of rest and the weather very hot should make the Southern boys hustle to gain a vic- tory.

Munger has already prepared the mound and is having it cod at he tlIrttp- backed and will be surrounded by a con- crete grandstand. The field has been en- larged and the hitting space has been greatly increased by the removal of the diamond to the southeaster$ corner next to the gymnasium. The diamond will not be used at all this season, as it must be in splendid condition for next season.
