Two of The Most Interesting . / I] / (james 0f The Season Pl/iyed H , The Past Week?Loulsburg , Victory In All. ? ?1 The I.ouisburg amateur ball team ) succeeded in remaining on the winning aide in all the games played ihe past week, up until Wednesday morning when our report closes on s account of hot being able tc get ^ IV m>v. > u au ?uw ovj t on uu , <TUUII both pitchers were batted freely, ow- ( ing to the wet conditibn of the balls, j the threatened rain having by this t " '[ _ time resolved itself into a steady | shower. The featnree of the game were: v The pitching of Hedgpeth for the J locals, and their alround playing. 1 MoKeithan for the visitors featured ( with a beautiful drive to deep left b fg ' ? ' \ ' 1 ' - V ' ' V . ^rr_ l \ ' particulars.fr.om the games that are played away from home. The first game was that of Friday -j at Franklinton between the team there and the I/ouisburg amateurs. This game was tine?in fact it could not he beaten by regular leaguers. ' It was full of interest from start to ( finish and both teams did well their 1 work, and each one let the other 1 know that they were in the game. ' The wind up showed that Louisburg 1 was a little too fast for the Franklin- ' ton boys, and they succeeded in * taking the game in a score of 1 to 1 0. I The second game was with Kp- ^ soin on the Epsom ground in which game Lomsbure was again victorious t In a score of 5 to 0 There' was no great deal of interest in this game j however, as the teams-were in no < sense matched. ; The third game was that of the i fourth of July when Franklinlon < and Looisburg were to contest for 1 the victory in their fourth game. It i was indeed the biggest game of 1 the season for enthusiasm and' spirit i of rivalry. Frsnklinton arrived on the afternoon train tully confident of victory over the Louisburgers. They | brought over a picked team of good | ball tosaere, among them being one, Mr Sitlnro u/hn has on nvnellunt nnl. lege record as a mount artist. Promptly at 8:30 the Louisburg amateurs began their warming up , and batting practice, and even a < novice could see that they mean* to . put up a fine exhibition of the rec- < ' ognized national sport. By the , time the Franklinton' team, aecoip- : panied by a goodly throng of supporters had arrived on the excellent- j ly appointed Williamson park, the , grand stand was taxed to its utmost , by ladies young and old, whose en- , thusiasm surpassed any ever wit- | nessed in Louisburg before. The ( new bleachers-were filled by men | who had relegated tfr the park for , t li? Mpie being, sueh incidental - as business, the probable outoome of "j thn Jeffries-Johnson scrap and the < "gas wagon" frenzy,notwithstanding. , As the Louisburg tossers fox-trot- i ted out onto the diamond like a heard of untamed gazzells an applause 1 went up irom fans and fannies that t was deafening. Franklinton went out in one-two-three ordBr. Louisnurg comes to bat With blood in heF ~~ batting eyp. Giant Short offers up to the criticising optics of the Louis- r burgers a dazzling assortment of c curves that defied 411 laws of gravity and atmospheric fiictiou, and p spit 1 . ball that reroipded you of a rollicky, 1 bucking broneo, and a dead straight one that looked like a peanut as it 1 came sizzing over the pan^ and with I I all of this, Louisburg was not satis- s ^ fied until ahe ffaiT bammered this a erstwhile catapanll for three runs. At no time daring the remaining innings did Franklinton have a ohanoe unora aVAald in *Kz> aAVanik ?wh/>n *AN. iAGER eld for three ba^es.

"I don't know how newspapers came to be in the world, and I don't think God knows, for He ain't gst nothing to say about them in the Bible. I think the editor ia the missiag link we read, of and strayed in the bushes until the flood, and then came out and wrote the things up and has been here ever since 1 don't think he ever died. J never t>aw a dead one and never heard of one getting licked. Oar paper is a mighty good one; but the editor goes without underclothes all winter,^ and don't wear any socks and pa ain't psidhls anhsnription since the paper started. I asked pa if that was the jfvay tht editor had to suck the juice out of snowballs in winter and go to bed when he had 'his shirt washed in Summer. "Then pit got mad and took' me , out in the woodshed and licked me awful hard. If the editor makes mistakes folks say he out to be hanged; but if the doctor makes any mistakes he buries tbem and people dassant Bay nothing because doctors can read and write Latm. When the editor makes mistakes there is lawsuits, and swearing and a big fuse but if the doctor makss one there is a funeral, cnt-Howers and perfect silence. A doctor can use a word a yard 1 lon^ without .him or anybody knowin' what it means, but if the editor uses one he has to spell it. ,If the doctor goes to aee any other roan'swife, he charges the man fer the visit, but if the editor should go, i he gets a charge of buckshot, Any college can make a doctor,to prd^r, but an editor has to be bprn/'-pEx. , :,tvrl?*T?n-r An exchange , s?ya ''the roost detestible of all oitiaens are those ' whpmake it their business to circulate rumors about others that have no foundation." ^ ~ - . ? - 1M1> BUB!
