Atlanta, Ga., May 1.—AUanta de feated Birmingham, the league lead ers, In a slugging match at Piedmont Park yesterday afternoon. Billy Smith's “Brigands’’ played all around the Alabamans and scored at pleasure.

A total of 24 hits was made by the two teams, Sales and Harlqy being batted freely. Ray mond, who pitched the last three In nings for Atlanta, struck out sevon men.

The summer time Is usually the dull season with the business people, and In fact with everyone, except the but terfly pleasure seeker. But the laun dry man Is an exception to this. Witti him Ij Is the rush time of the year. The more humid the atmosphere the more he enjoys It; perspiration Is Ills dearest friend. A rise in the thermom eter is a thing to shed tears of joy over, and dust, especially on a windy day, is a welcome feature of the weather .conditions to the wash man. Pathos' la a Name. A speaker at a Methodist conference told this story, which, he said, was re lated to him by BlBhop Hartzell: “The bishop, while on a southern tour, met a darky who was the father of sixteen children, the youngest of whom was scarcely out of arlns, and on asking him what the youngster’s name was received this reply, 'Judas ’Scarlot, Bah.’ ‘You don't mean to tell me that that Is really his baptismal name, do you?’ asked the bishop.. ‘Indeed, I do, sah. Ain’t dat a Scrlpt'ral name?' ‘Yes; but do you know who Judas Iscariot was?’ ’’Course I does, sab; hut doan de Scripture say It would have bjen better for Judas ’Scarlot If he had nev er been horned?’ ‘Yes; but what has that to do with this poor little chap?’ ‘Dot’s jest it, sah; dat’s jest It. It would have been better for dis poor little chap If he had never been burned, and dat’s why we calls him Judas ’Scarlot’ ’’—Philadelphia Record. I<loya’a Historic Bell. The bell used to Insure silence at Lloyd's, In London, when the arrival of an overdue vessel Is announced to the anxious underwriters Is of naval origin. It belonged to the Lutlne, which was wrecked near the Zuyder Zee toward the end of the eighteenth century, when England'was at wqr with Holland. As it was customary In those days to send bullion and specie by men-ot-war, the Lutlne carried a valuable consignment of specie, and the underwriters at Lloyd’s were able to arrange with the Dutch government to salve the cargo and recoup themselves for their loss on Insurance. Over 150,000 was recover ed, and among other relics brought to shore was tho Lutlne's bell, to ring out good cheer for anxious underwriter^ who hear the safe arrival proclaimed by Lloyd's crier as silence follows the ringing of tho bell. Leather and Shoes. The leather that makes- the most comfortable shoes and the most lasting as well Is the old fashioned tan bark cow leather, greased good and hard every Saturday with tullow fat. Oil Is the life of loather, and a shoe should be oiled at least twice a month, as It readily evaporates. . The man who walks a great deal should change his shoes every other day if he van afford It, and be should make some sacrifice tq do It, as the benefit to his feet will be Immeasurable. Shoes should fit the feet well and snugly. The feet should be the last pnrt of a man’s anatomy to tire from wulklng, and they won’t If the proper care Is taken of them.— Milwaukee Wisconsin. A -Gigantic Spanish Palace. The “eighth wonder," us It Is usually called, is the gigantic palace of the Escurlal, which stands In the ancient kingdom of Toledo, Spain. It Is con fessedly the most wonderful edifice lu the world, whether In dimensions or riches. It has 1,860 rooms, 6,200 win dows nnd'doorB. 80 BtalrcaBes, 73 foun tains, 48 wine cellars, 8 organs and 51 hells. Its circumference Is 2,800 feet, or almost exactly a half mile. It was dedicated to St. Lorenzo, the sulnt who Albany, Ga. Is said to have been broiled on a grid iron, and on -that account its founda tions were laid off In Imitation of the shape of that kind of a piece of kitch en utensil. Postmaster Robbed. G. W. Fouts, Postmaster at River ton, la., nearly lost his life and was robbed of all Comfort, according to his letter, which says: “For 20 years I had chronic liver complaint, which led to such a severe case of jaundice that even my finger nails turned yellow; when my doctor prescribed Electric Bitters, which cured me and have kept me well for eleven yeare.’ Sure cure for Biliousness, Neuralgia, Weakness and all Stomach,'Liver, Kidney and Bladder derangements.

Umpire McGrath — ho callB It Mo- Graw,” and "McGraw” therefore It Is —will pass out the order at the ball park on Thursday afternoon to "Play ball." And Mr. Stem Twisters Collier, hurler of ferocious destroyers of bat ting averages, will amble softly Into the box, rub hlB right fin In the stuff from which Father Adam was mod eled, smile sweetly at the girl under the blue sailor with a red ribbon band, wink reassuringly at Tar-Paw McCor mick—and the season of 1906, Georgia State League, will be on. 'Cordele gets hers Thursday. Also Friday and Saturday. For Cordele opens up In Albany. And being the first of the season Thomas's lads will be satisfied with nothing less than three straights. As aforesaid, Stem Twisters Collier will pitch the first game. And Stem Twisters Is all right. He lost that first exhibition game with Valdosta, but It wasn't his fault. It was the result of bad worjc behind him. He pitched great ball, and every fan who saw the game le willing to back him to win day after tomorrow. And all the fans are pretty well agreed that the Albany bunch Is about as husky a set as was ever corralled together on a minor league team. “They suit me,” Is the laconic com ment of Manager Thoms t, who knows a bail player when he sees one. And here Is the way tho regular line-up Is going to be during the early part of the season: Alexander, first base. Experienced, understanding ball players and know ing the ways of getting games. Left- handed, but level headed. Incidentally team captain. Harry Bldred, second base. A pro fessional who knows how to keep the middle sack pinned down and who covers a world of ground. . Billy Rambargar—call him Llmbur- ger If you want to; he doesn’t care— short-stop. Billy Is ubiquitous. Ho Is everywhere at the same time, and has a habit of intercepting balls that look like they were going ln :o left field. W. W. Lovelace, third base. Less Is known about Lovelace than any play er on the team, but /all that Is known Is good. “Just wait,’” says “Love.” Yes, that's his ball name—“Love.' 1 Tar-Paw McCormick will be the reg ular man behind the bat. And maybe he hasn’t been playing star ball! His work In those exhibition games was of the gilt-edge variety, and nobody has a doubt as to the character of work he will do. Dudley Is the other man who will do the receiving op occasion. And the catcher who Isn’t catching will be In right field, just as one of the pitchers —either Boyd or Crosley—will always be In centerfleld. As for Snodgrass — “ Sycamore Snod” he will he called, on account of his great height—he will be the reg ular man In left field, and everybody has discovered that a bucket of tar hangs on one of the sycamore’s limbs. Posey, Collier, Boyd and Crosley will do the box work. All but the last named have been seen In harness, buckling down to serious work. “Don’t worry about Crosley,’’ says Team Man ager Wood, “for he’s right In the bunch with this other bouquet of dais ies.” McGrath, Harris and P. Connlff will umpire the games of the Georgia State League. They are experienced men, and have secured the positions on their merits. As stated above, Mc Grath will open up tile season In Al- bany. Cordele arrives Thursday morning, and three games will be played— Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Al bany’s bunch will go over to Cordele for three return games, on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, but will be at home again for Thursday, Friday and Saturday games with Columbus. Amerlcus opens day after tomorrow at Columbus and Wayoross at Val dosta. Of course everybody will be out Thursday to see the opening game of the season. The Cordellans are com ing over oh a special train' to root for their bunch, and— ’ Well, there’ll be a hot old time out at the park. Orino Laxative Fruit Syrup is best for women and children.

The samo pawnbroker once took In pledge a medical chest of poi sons that were strong enough to kill 10,000 men. it was, however, a valua ble deposit, as some of the poisons were very rare. A Kensington (Eng land) pawnbroker about three weeks ago lent a sum of money on n number of autographs of dead celebrities.. Before and After.

Notwithstanding Mr. Webster’s repeated efforts to discon cert her she pursued tho even tenor of her way until Webster, becoming quite fearful of tho result, arose, apparently lu great agitation, nnd, drawing out bis large snuffbox, thrust his thumb and finger to the vory bottom and, car rying a deep pinch to both nostrils, drew It up with gusto, and then, ex tracting from his jfockct a very large hanUkerchlef, he blew Ills nose with a report that rang distinct and lqud through the crowded ball. He tjien asked, "Mrs. Greonougb, was Mrs. Bodgeu a neat woman?" "I cannot give you full Information as to that, sir. She bad one very dirty trick,” replied the wltueBs. "What was that, ma’am?"
