 Isaac Waitons Increase
 The Jefferson County Hunters and Fishermen's association started things. Then individuals got the fever, and the result is that there has been more fishing in Jefferson county this year than ever before, and there have been more reereational camps established than ever before.
 R. A. (Buster) Brown, who looks after the destiny of the Alabama state fair, recently builded a handsome, comfortable camp down on the Warrior river. Colonel Brown hadn't no more than completed his camp than friends attacked him and wanted to get in on the proposition. Sol Caheen was one of the first h hlESiS anu OOi DupHitd uN6i WiAu enthusiasm. The result Is that the amusement magnate no longer owns the camp. Now, he merely owns q tenth, due to the fact that his friends formed a little club and distributed nine shares among themselves. R.. A. wons a tenth only now.
 Jim Dent, who secretaries for F1 c.. II rt.,1 f.. |. 10 members, has fallen in love with the place. Jim is just back from several days visit to the place, and returned licking his chops-whlch is proof sufficient that the fishing was good.

 Allen and His Golf
 It now develops that golf rob- bed Pug Allen of his berth with the Dallas club in the Texas league. The former Baron gard ener who can broadcast golf ball about as far as the best of them, raised the ire of the Dallas Proxy by hitting golf balls in the mornings and failing to hit base balls in the afternoons. To get even the Dallas mogul sent Pug to the Greenville club in tho Texas Oklahoma league, where they had no golf course.
 Pug, however, Is back in the Lone Star loop again, having been purchased by the Beaumont club of the Texas league.

 Little Rock, Ark, August 21-Spe- ciaD-In the pinches today, Earl Lefty Whitehill stood the Tray ,elers on their well known ears, and the Birmingham Barons won a ball game from Little Rock, to 1. Lief ty'' struck out nine Traveller battres and six of his strikeouts came with men on bases
 The Travellers got eight hits off the youthful southpaw and three of them were extra base hits but there was not single Little Rock hit in the pinch. The nearest thing to scoring punch was Travis Jack sons sacrifice fly in the eighth in- ming which gave the Travellers their only run. Whitehill had it on the xight-handed hitters as well as those who bat from the left side. Five right handed swingers passed out on strikes, three of them breezing when a single would have driven in run. The Travellers had Il men left on bases due to the effective pitching of the Baron southpaw in the pinch.
 Warmoth on Mound
 g. Of course, Whitehill had big advantages as soon as batteries were announced for the day-"Cy' War moth pitched against him. It seems that "Cy' isn't supposed to win, no matter how good a game he pitches and today, except for one inning, he pitched better game than Whitehill. fCy" allowed only five hits and he wasn't in trouble every inning as was the case with the Birmingham pitcher.
 It was the second inning that spoiled the game for Warmoth and 1t was a tough break that did It.
 How BurOns Won
 < Neun was first up in the second and he shot a single to right. Sli- va sacrificed. Robinson popped to Jackson for the second out. War moth gave Kane base on balls and then advanced both runners with a wild pitch. Stoner, pitcher, sub bing in left field, drove a hot liner over third base. Graff got his hand on the ball but could not hold 1t ard both Neun and Kane scored on fhe hit. Clarke then popped to Schleibner for the third out.
 Travellers Waste Chance
 The Travellers had a splendid chance in their half of the second, but passed it up. Connolly was first up and walked Schleibner iONS d SilSlt LII pu6li biAS bO-As a@eNP an sacrificed sending Conn Jlly to third and Schleibner to second. Then Whitehill bore down and struck Jackson out. Bob Barrett was next up. Bob played left field yesterday while Frankie Zoellers took second in place of Art Ritter who was hit in the face by ground ball in prac- tice. The Birmingham board of strategy ordered a base on balls for Barrett and then Whitehill made good the move by flaming Warmoth
 In the third with two out, Ike Boone tripled to left center but WhitehiH famed Connolly In the fifth with one out Zoellers walked and went to second on a wild pitch, but Whitehill struck out Graft and Boone.
 In the, sixth with two out, Lapan and Jackson singled and again Ear rett was given an intentional base on balls to bring Warmoth up. "Cy" popped to Neun.

Champ Visits Press Coop

Our old friend, Champ Pfekens, sartorial sultan and all around good fellow, has shown up in Gotham again, following the cleo ton of recent date. which sent him to the legislature from Sum ter county. Champ Is prone to fit hither and yon across the well-known globe at times, and Harry Schumacher, s. e. of the New York Globe and Commercial Advertiser, had the following to say about recent visit to the press coop at the Polo grounds:
 Among the. distinguished vis- itors in the press enclosure at the Polo grounds yesterday afternoon was the Hon. Champ Piekens, who Knows as many people on Broadway as he does on Main street, Livingston, Ala.
 Champs team recently won the championship of the Boil Weevtl league. and subsequently defeated Meridian, Miss, pennant winners in the Cotton States league, in l post-season series.
 On Champs club were several University of Alabama stars, in- cluding Left Fielder Elmore and Shortstop Gillis, both of whom are ajor leaguers in the making, according to MT. Pickens.
 Champ has just been elected to the Alabama state legislature, and feels that as an honest-to- goodness solon it is incumbent on him t. put the old home town on the map.
 To this end he is trying to book the Yankees for an exhibition game at Livingston next spring. Livingston has new $50.000 hotel, and Babe Ruth and com pany are promised a good time if they'll drop in next spring.

Everything has happened to the Barons individually, and unless a chimney falls on the club collectively, they will open against the Pelicans.
