Last Friday nine of Selma's young men, which composed the second nine, crossed bats with the second nine at this place. The game was an inter esting one, with some good snappy ball playing. At the fifth inning it looked as if the Selma boys had the game, but in the eighth inning our boys rallied and came to the front. The score was 12 to 13 in favor of Dunn. During the game not a decis ion was kicked on, and no hard feelings were caused. The Sel ma boys went home as jubilant as could be, taking their defeat manfully. Come again boys we are always glad to lmve you. IT SAVED HIS LIFE. Hon. J. A. Oates, Mayor of Dunn, N. C., says, "I am sure Dr. Worthington's Remedy sav ed my life. It was prescribed for me in a severe case of cramp colic by Dr. Armstrong of the Confederate Army in 1863, and it gave me instantaneous relief. Since that day I have used it continuously and think it the greatest remedy on earth and should be kept in every home." Price 25c at Ilood & Grantham. Wild Cats and Tigers. The game of ball between the Wild Cats and Tigers, or 18 of Dunn's citizens who do not know the game and some who seldom take any interest in it, was one of the most amusing ever witnessed in our city. The main feature of the game was those who did not know when to run or what to do when on base. For two hours they kept the spectators laughing ; all left the grounds having thoroughly en joyed the game and both sides feeling like they had fought a great battle. The score was 11 to 2G in fa vor of the Tigers, FOR SALE. I offer my elegant eight room house for sale on Divine street. I am giving a bargain. J. W. GREGORY, Dunn, N. C. Lynching m Johnston.
