THE SECOND GAME.
Kings Mountain Paled Before Our
lioys As the Stars Before the Sim
Score 15 to 2.
The ball game between Kings
Mountain and Concord Wednes
day afternoon was decidedly
the weakest effort of any game
that has been played on our
diamond this season. However,
the visiting boys struggled
through to the last, hoping that
some turn of luck would land, one

Kino-s Mountain scored one :

but their hopes faded into insig- j
nificance when our boys piled up
eiFht runs against them. Shu-
ford was an easy victim for our .
boys and they knocked him all
to pieces from the beginning
Miller and Graves did the bat
tery work for the home team,
and the easy delivery and grace
ful movements. of Miller elicited
great applause. His work was
amazing to the men against him.

his excellent work on second.
He's a winner at all times.
"Rpp.d has no Deer as a first
baseman, and his playing is al
ways appreciated.
Caldwell at short' stop and
Fisher on third were on their
metal and held their good repu
tation at par, or above.
Mangum, Card and Dr. Paul
Caldwell did what little outfield
ing there was to do exceptional
ly well and won fresh admiration
from the spectators.
Kings Mountain made one
double play on second in the
fifth inning, which was the only
feature worthy of special men
tion from that side. The boys
were genteel in their manners
and everything passed off
pleasantly.
Wyatt, the catcher, was over
come towards the last of the
game and was relieved by- the
star, Johnnie Ferguson.
Mr. Mclnnis, of Kings Moun

fair and positive in his decisions.

Last tail I sprained my left
hip while handling some heavy
boxes. The doctor I called on
said at first that it was a sliyht
stiaiu and would soon be well.
but it grew worse and the doctor
then said I had rheumatism. It
continued to grow worse and I
could hardly get around to work.
I-went to a drug store and the
druggiat recommended me to try
Cbarrberlain's Paiu Balm. ' I
tiled it- and one-hajf of a 50-cent
bottle cured me entirely. I now'
recommend it to all my friends.
