A plan haa been perfected for the organl xatl in of a permanent Alumni Society of the Academy of Hiehmond county aa a feature of the next commencement. In the meantime, how ever, certain definite aaalatance la needed from the ulumnl In order to make a aucceaa of tin* baseball season of 1914, and to enable thoae In charge of athletics at the Academy to maintain the position which the Academy has assumed In inter-acholaatlc contests with the schools of other cities. Athletics constitute an essential and beneficial .feature of every school for hoys; and athletics at the Academy are not yet self-support ing. The funds necessary to pay the expenses of visiting teams must ba guaranteed; athletic equipment must be purchased and maintained; a gymnasium is badly needed for the proper development of many of the hoys at the Academy, You, by reason of the fact that you arc alumni of the Academy, are mem here of its Temporary Alumn Athletic Association, which will later be merged Into a larger and permanent organization, having for its ob , Jrct the continual Improvement and advancement of the Academy.

C.—On the petition of J. \V. Cooner and W. D. Bates, Judge George E. Prince yesterday issued an order in Columbia requiring the Lex ington county dispensary board to show cause why it should not be per manently enjoined fr„in establishing a dispensary in Batesburg. The order was made returnable be fore Judge J. W. 'DeVore In Edge field on April 27. The plaintiffs were represented bv Senator B. W. Crouch, of Saluda, ana J. Fraser Lyon, of Co lumbia. flip point at issue is whether the Lexington county board of dispeu sary control has a light to establish a dispensary in Batesburg when part of the tqpyn Is in Saluda county and con sequently In prohibition territory. . The Lexington dis ensary board recently announced its int nation o! lo cating a disp-'-nsary in Batesburg Th ; order issued yesterday by Judge Prince restrains them from doing so until the case can be determined on its merits. is Usui II MAKE RACE? Georgia Politicians Anxious to Know ex-Governor’s Plans For U. S. Senate. Atlanta, Ga.—There is unusual in terest just now in the paJitical plans of former Gov. Joseph M. Brown. Whether he has any plans or not no one seems to know, and yet he is fig uring extensively in the gossip, and rumors are going the round that his friends are raising a campaign fund with a determined view to placing him iu the race for Senator Hoke Smith's seat in the United States senate Many of Governor Brown's closest political friends do not believe that he will undertake a race against Senator Smith at this time. A member of the State Democratic Executive Commit, tee who voted for and strongly sup ported Brown in his last %ace for gov ernor said the other day: "I Teel satisfied that Joe Brown »s not going to run against Hoke Smltn. It would look too much like a spite race and it would have the effect 01 bringing back all the bitterness into Georgia politics.” Rumor in Circulation. Some significant tact* in connection with the gossip as to Governor Brown are a report that he told a close friend that he expected to make tne race for the senate and, further, that he Is said to have been in close con sultation with J. R. fc’mitli, his formet campaign manager. Then there was the incident of the state executive rommittee meeting when O. R. Hutch ens of Rome, sought an indorsement of Governor Brown’s candidacy by the members of the committee after the regular meeting had adjourned. Oft the other hand, there is only the statement of other friends of Governor Brown to the effect that they "do not believe he will run," or that they "feel confident he will not run,” to oppose to what looks like possibly a more interesting political development than Georgia has yet seen this year Senator Smith himself is remaining in Washington through it all attend ing to duties in the senate, and is taking no hand in Georgia politics in any direction except so far as con cerns himself. Felder and Hardwick Active. In the meantime Attorney Genera. T S. Felder and Congressman T. W. Bardwick are preparing for activity or. thp stump for Senator Bacon's nn expired term, and it Is confidently ex pected that as occasions offer Gov exrnor Slaton will himself have some thing to sav to the voters concerning his candidacy for this office. Gov ernor Slaton will, of course, be more or less handicap; ed in making a cam paign tour of the state on account o; (he fact that most of his time wfll be required in the governor’s office, where, in any event, he expects to remain until after the state primary. BAPIISMAL SEMI AT CBRTIS THISP.M. Large Attendance Expected at Church Tonight. Interest iiteadily Growing, The interest in the meeting at Cur tis Baptist Church is steadily on the increase. 1-ast night's service was said to be the best of the series. Both the singing and the sermon made a deep and lasting impression. This was manifest when the doors of the church were opened and a num ber were received for baptjgm and even after the welcoming of rube con verts into the Christian experience | tu meeting was halted to receive an other who felt impelled then and | there to take her stand for God. A. greater service is expected to j night. At that time there are a large ! number of converts to be baptized ani ' it is expected that the house will be ! packed to every available place for \ the chairs to be placed. Last night ! the pastor announced that the serv j ice would begin promptly at S: 15 | o’cloek and that no one would be permitted to enter the house aftet the baptismal service begins at 8:30 o’clock t A splendid meeting was held this ' morning at 11 o'clock at the fire de I | nrtment headquarters and another at j the Enterprise Mill. Through these extension meetings a number have i been relched by the gospel and there | is a general spirit of rejoicing and | hopefulness in the church. .The j membership has experienced a real I revival and the' future is now the l Tightest of any time since the pres | ent pastorate began. • "FELLOWSHIP AND LOVE” REV. MR. SMITH’S THEME Rev. VV. R.
