Great Britain's Pasturage.

In Ireland and England there is some
pasturage all winter, and there are no
places for the shelter of stock and sheep.
The Scotch highlands are largely used
for sheep raising. The variety is a good,
fat, black-faced one, and the pasturage
excellent. Hay is left out in the open
air all winter, both here and in Ireland.
1t is put into small stacks and tied
around with ropes. In England many
Of the hay and straw stacks are thatched
and they are, as a rule, ridge-shaped In
stead of round.-Frank George Carpen'

and died on the 18th Of the month; there

viz. first IL, and again 2XSX3 - l3. He
composed just 13 works. His first and
determining impression in favor of a
dramatic career was formed on the 18th
Of the month. He was influenced in his
choice emphatically by hearing Weber's
"Freischutz, "and by Wilhelmine Shcroe-
der Devrient The latter went upon the
stage on the 18th Of October, 1919. and
the rFreischutz" was completed on May
13, 1870, aud first performed in Dresden,

Weber died in Wagncr's 18th year. Wag

at Riga, where he became director, was
opened on the 18th day Of September,

0'DAY HELD THEM DOWN.
THE MEMPHIANS SHUT OUT
FOR EIGHT INNINGS.

The Phenomenal X nouff Loses His Cum
ninE-The Home Batsnen Give Him a
Lively Eeceptfou-He Yields Eight
Eases on Hits and Four on Bslis-The
Visitors Get but Three Hits off O'DAy.
Between 800 and 600 people saw the
home club defeat the Memphians yester-
day afternoon. The threatening weather
kept many at home who would have gone
out had there been any assurance that a
game would be played. 1t was an earned
victory for the home team. The visitors
were outplayed at every point. They
were shut out up to the ninth inning,
when Sneed scored on q misjudged throw
by Gillen to third base.
ODay was In the box for Savannah
with Gillen as backstop. The visitors
presented the phenomenal Knouff and
Broughton. The home b8tsmen found
knouPs curves in the first inning and
batted him freely all the way through the
game. The Memphians gave the ir box
man excellent support and the locals had
hard work to find safe place for the ball.
o Day pitched splendid game and
yielded but three bases. knOuH yielded
eight bases on hits and four on balls.
Twenty minutes before the game was
called light rain began falling. The
umpire waited until the thirty minute
limit had nearly expired. Both clubs
were anxious to play and the game
was called. 1t was raining quite
hard and the base lines and catcher's
held was bed OF soft mud. Sawdust was
emptied on the mud to keep the players
from slipping, but it did not give a firm
ioothold. The grass was wet and the ball
was so slippery that it WAS almost impos-
sible to hold it. The home team went to
the bat first. HOtaling led off with two
Dagger past first base into right field and
advanced TO third on a sacrifice hit by
Morlarlty. Field, the next man at the
bat, fouled out, Hotaling scored on
passed ball.
In the third inning HOtaling was given
his base on balls and was advanced TO
second by Field. A wild pitch, long hit
by Collins to right field and both scored
Collins stole to third ana scored on a hit
by Sutclitfe. These were the only runs
the home team made.
In the ninth inning Sneed hit a grounder
to Miller, who fumbled the ball and
yielded Sneed his base. He advanced to
third on hits to first by McSOrley and An
drews, and scored on bad throw by
Glllen. There was some very pretty field
work. One of the quickest and sharp
est double plays of the season was made
by Collins, Miller and Field, putting out
BrOughton at second and Shea at first
Sutchtle made very pretty running
catch OF fly by Sneed in the sixth inning
The visitors played fine fielding game
and DATED well, but they were unequal
to the home club. The following is the
score:

Some New FLORIDA Roads.

The Orlando (Florida) Reporter has the
following to say about the Orlando, Oak
land and Atlantic railroad: Now that the
project of constructing railroad from
Oakland, at the southern extremity of the
Great Lake ApOpka, through Orlando and
on to some point on the Atlantic coast,
has taken definite shape We hope the pro-
jectOrs of the enterprise will not let it rest
until the line is completed and the road in
operation. That such d line Is needed
admits Of no question. Between Orlando
and the South ApOpka region there is al
ways large and regular traffic. To great
extent all that region looks to Orlando as
its base OF supplies. 1t would become eX-
clusively so if adequate means of cOmmu-
mcation were provided. There is mag
nitcent future befOre ali of the Lake
ApOpka region. 1t is one of the most fer
tile portions of the State. Already it's
production of vegetables reaches many
thousands OF crates annually, while its
yield OF fruit is none behind in volume.
10 the eastward of Orlando lies a vast
region OF productive country, which Tor
want OF adequate transportation is left to
the stOckmen. This is naturally tribu-
tary to Orlando and railroad running
through it from here to the coast would
invite settlement and development. Or
landO also wants the trade of all this re-
giOn, but she cannot get it without
railroad, nor without an effort. Lying to
the eastward and beyond Is the famous
Indian river country with its fish, Oys-
tiers, vegetables and fruits. The produc-
tlOns of that country are becoming i'm
mense in volume, aud rapidly increasing.

Mercer University.

edThis popular school of science, which is
advertised in another column, is now en-
ioying a degree OF prosperity unparalleled
in its past history. The number Of matri-
eulates is fully double what it was sew
eral years ago, and is constantly increas-
ing. The undergraduate. too, for the
most part, are typical representatives Of
talent, responsibility and morals of our the
Southern youth. A very large proportion
OF them are preparing for the Gospel min
Istry, and the influence of the institution
is ever eXerted in behalf OF religion, and
all the elements that combine TO form
good citizen and true gentleman. AT the
same time, albeit under the control OF the
Baptist denomination. il is essentially
non-sectarian, and students are prepared
to enter any evangelical theological
school m the country.
The faculty has long occupied the fore
most rank as educators and ripe scholars,
and their literary productions have won
for the university an enviable fame Not
few Ofthem are being accepted and used
as text books in numerous schools and
colleges. The ehair ofancient languages,
which was so ably illustrated by the
lamented Steed, has been recently filled
by the election of Prof. William e.
Manly, graduate of the University
Of Virginia, who comes with the most
fiattering Endorsement of his alma mater
and a widely spread reputation OF his
own as Professor in the Theological
Seminary OF Louisville, Ky. He will be a
valuable acquisition TO the university.
The graduates OF other colleges will be
pleased to learn that past graduate
courses of study for the degrees of A. NJ .
and Pm. ID. have recently been estab-
lished. and at the late commencement the
latter was conferred for the first time in
Georgia.
The faculty is now complete, and under
the lead Of its accomplished aud erudte
President, DR.. a. j. Battle, the prospects
of old Mercer are bright indeed. The
next term opens on Sept. %.

Plucky Charleston Beaten.

CHARLESTON, July l9.-The Nashyilles
played their first game here to-day aud
defeated the locals by score of 5 to 8.
Taylor and iIellman were the battery for
Nashville, aud Warner and McVey held
the points for Charleston. The locals
batted Taylor freely at first, aud had the
game won up to the sixth inning, when
two base hits and several costly errors on
the part OF the homo team enabled the
visitors to pile up four runs. Charleston
would probably have won the game but
for the conduct of Godsby, who threw
BrOsnan down and thus prevented him
from making an easy double play, which
would no doubt have prevented the Nash
villes from scoring IN the sixth inning. The
locals became ratified after this and made
several costly errors. GOldsby was loudly
Missed for mis- conduct, being the first time
that visiting player has ever been Kissed
