Former Barons Are Coaching Two Teams To Play
 At Redwood

Jones Valley High and Shades Ca haba will clash Wednesday after noon at Redwood Field In one of the biggest of the county high school games. The teams are about evenly matched and are both working hard for their games.
 A feature of the coming contest will be that former Birmingham Southern league baseball players will oppose each other in battle of wits. Stump Clarke. star left-fielder for the Barons last year, who was sold to Cleveland, and Doc" Newton former Baron pitcher, are coaching the two teams, Clarke at Shades-Ca- haba and Newton at Jones Valley Both coaches have done good work with their teams. Clarke has devel- oped a smooth running machine for the Mountaineers out of prospects that were not exceedingly bright He has given them number of good plays and c taught them bunch of tricks that they have been working to good advantage.
 Newton has been putting his Brownies through this year and has got the best out of his material. He has a great defensive team and also a good offensive machine when his men are in shape.
 The Mountaineers staged a hard ScrlmmdBe w WeuHeSudy dILSlHOOi and will go through tackling and conditioning work for the remainder of the week. Poole, A. Hunter and W. Davidson will be counted upon heavily by the Mountaineers in the coming game while for the Brownies Edney, Lovett and Ford are expected to bear the brunt of the game. In the line A.

SECOND FIRE ALARM

For the second time within six hours the fire department was sum moned to the Walk Over Boot shop on Twentieth street at an early hour Wednesday morning. Answering tho second alarm, the firemen found a small blaze in the center of the cell ing which was extinguished with practically no additional damage to the stock. On account of the location of the second fire it was necessary to chop a hole in the ceiling from the second floor.
 No definite responsibility for the fire has been fixed. but 1t is thought that it was due to defective wiring. The first alarm went into the fire de- partment at 10:30 Tuesday evening, causing the heavy damage to the stock and building.
 J. P. McGowan, manager. of the store, started a check of the damage Wednesday morning. The prelirni- nary estimate given out by him fol- lowing a partial examination of the stock showed that the damage will run higher than the Tuesday night estimate, probably running as high as s15,000. The total value of the stock. 1t was stated by MT McGowan, was $30,000.

 Centre and Alabama should prove the greatest drawing card in football that Birmingham will have next year. Both have had remarkable records this year, and it Is expected that both colleges will return most of the varsity men. 'Bama players wit messed the Auburn Centre game and there expressed a wish that the schools might meet. Students from the Capstone also had the same de- sire, so it can be seen that everyone is satisfied to know the Colonels will be met.
 Small Centre college came into prominence because of the stellar playing Red" Roberts "Bo" McMil- Ian and others that made possible that memorable 60 defeat of Harvard.
