than when the season started. and folks are
Changing their minds about him.
THE LEAGUE RACE
continues to be very interesting. Boston, Phil
adelphia. New York. Cleveland and Chicago
are punched within % 2-I0 per cent and there
Is but AZ 2-lO per cent between the two ends of
the league against 5S15 per cent in the associa-
ton 81. Louis has great lead in the associa-
uon; and Louisville is hopelessly weak and out
OF the race. IL Il not SO, however, with the
league tail-enders. for they have struck a win
ming gait and are playing ball to win. Pitts
burg and Indianapolis are not q great way off
and the chances are that they will lose with us
IN the present series. Then on Wednesday of
next week the Smoky city folks come here and
play four games, the result of which should
make some difference in the gap between the
two clubs in favor Of the home team.

Among the surprises the New York team has
sprung on the public is the pitching of Living

Governor Ross to-day RENTED the fine
of Mrs. Lena Harper, aged twenty. The
fine was 500 for adultery. Accompany
ing the petition for Mrs. Harper's par
don was a letter from E. w.
Long of Memphis, Tenn, saying she
had lived in his family for eight
years, and till one year ago
was pure and virtuous girl and would
have been so still had he and his wife not
allowed her to visit Texas, where she fell
in with the man Harper, to whom she
was married while he had living wife.
Mr. Long offers to pay costs of the case
to get Lena out Of jail.
The board of education met this after
noon to make the school apportionment
for the ensuing year. The old rate, 81
per capita, was continued. Governor

present. Commissioner Hall was called
on to state the resources of the schools
from the sale and lease of lands.
He said the lands were being
sold at the rate of so 900 acres per
month, and about seven million acres
were leased. Altogether there would be
an increase of revenue from this source +,
Notwithstanding the fact that there
would be large number of fOrfeitures
next month from failure to pay interest.
Governor Ross intimated that we are in a
fair way to be able to pay the teachers
cash for their services and that they
ought to be paid.
