Out Door Sports.

With the opening of the season of out
door sports comes the time of traIlhle for
the poor victims of Hay Fever and Rose
Cold. For them flowers have no odor,
and the summer little or no beauty. To
snuff, sneeze and wipe their weeping eyes
for three or four successive months-zthis
is their pitiable portion. There is no help
in sea-voyages, there is no help in high
mountain air. But there is positive
cure in Ely's Cream Balm. Try it. If
you continue to suffer it is because you
neglect remedy as sure as it is cheap
and pleasant. 23jUly2w

DIR. Holmes 1.-Two Anniversary
Poems are the most striking feature
of the atlantic for July. One is ad-
dressed to James Russell Lowell, and
was delivered at the last Harvard
Commencement; the other is "tTo the
Poets who only Listen" and was read
at the recent Phi Beta Kappa Dinner
at Cambridge. Both are charming.
There is some more usually excellent
poetry by Edith Thomas, Andrew
Hedbrook, and Kathleen Wright.
''The New Portfolio" has developed a
startling incident, Mrs. Oliphant's
story is on the eve of its denouement,
and Miss Murfree's prophet of the
Great Smoky Mountains comes to
strangely pathetic ending. Warmers
''On Horseback" is continued, and is
amusing enough. The three more
solid articles Of the number are "The
Port Royal Of Mere .Angelique," by
Maria E. MacKaye. "Should a Col
lege Educate?" by E. r. Sill, and
critical article by Harriet Waters
Preston on Miss Ingelow and Mrs.
Walford. Philander Deming has
characteristic tale to tell, Wong Chin
Foo relates "The Story Of San Tszon,"
a legend of Buddhism, and there is a
pleasant little conceit about Shakes
peare. Reviews of Ormsby's don
Quixote," "Stepniak's" book on Rus
sia, Pater's Marius, the Epicurean,"
Hutton's and Walford's books on

Lot Grisby Shot.

About / o'clock Sunday morning a ne
gro boy named Lot Grisby was shot by
the police while he was trying to evade
arrest, in the neighborhood of the rail
road junction.
The police say that the colored people
had a festival of some kind in the neigh
borhood of the colored church, out on
Lemon street, from which the boy Lot,
with four others, were returning to their
homes, west of the city, and while going
along the street they were very noisy
and boisterous, picking a banjo and sing
ing and shouting verylike theywere drunk
when the police heard the noise and fol-
lowed them, overtaking the crowd at the
junction. When within a few steps of
the negroes, the police ordered them
to stop, when one of the crowd fired at
the police, and all of them broke to run.
Policemen Lasseter and Berry returned
the fire, each of them firing three or -four
times, one of the balls striking Lot Girls
by in the back, about five inches to the
right of the spinal column, and lodging
just beneath the right nipple. DR.. S. c.
Burland extracted the ball, and says
while the wound is a serious zone, the
wounded man will probably soon be al
right.
The negroes live in the country, abou
four miles west of town, and our report
er was unable to see any of them, bu
from others we learned that their story
agrees with that of the police, except a
to their firing a pistol, as they claim the.
were unarmed. They also say that the,
will prosecute the police for firing a

sworn out.
