An old negro man was engaged at 80 cents
a day at the last term of the court in Mar
tinsville to place his head at an opening as a
target for parties who pay five cents
for three throws of a baseball at it. The
old fellow was struck at least 100 times on
the top of the head by a hard baseball
thrown from short distance, and didn't
even wink until man who could throw the
ball with the force of shot from gun struck
him on the head. When the ball struck him
he scratched his head, and asked his en-
ployer how many hours he had to putin. The
man told him he had earned 20 cents.
