An Exciting Ten.inning Game with q
100 Bedford City Teain..-.
The Salem Juniors and the Bedford
City baseball club played two games at
the College avenue grounds yesterday.
The first game was called at 9:3O, and 1t
took ten long innings to decide which
club won. The Bedford City team is
composed OF full-grown men, and the
Salem Junior players will not average
II years OF age. These were the clu BIS
that fought for supremacy. Cannady
essayed to pitch for the Juniors, but tn
visitors had no trouble In hitting him
OF the second they had four runs to
their credit
Forsythe was substituted and proved
to be invincible. allowing only FIVE
scattering hits to be made off his de-
livery, and striking out fourteen men
quite record. SBut he was two innings
late. and could not recover q game that
was lost Baer's work in left field was

for Bedford City was very timely. The
score was as follows: Salem Juniors
Runs, II; hits. IA; errors. 6. Bedford
Oity-Runs, IL; hits, s; errors, 8. Bat
teries; Cannaday, ForBythe and Bowers;
Derbins and Wright. Assssa'
~ The second game WAS won by the
Juniors, hands down. Home runs by
Bowers and Forsythe; three-base hits
by Roberts, Anderson, Bowers and Baer,
together with any number Of singles
did the work. The visitors were hacked
from the start and at the end of the
sixth with score standing FL to z
against them. became disguised with
their own work and decided to stop
playing. Roberts made some pretty
catches off second, and Bowers caught o
good game for the locals. There WAS
good attendance at both games.
Mr.. c. G.. STRONG, principal Of the
public schools OF Anderson, CAL, ssys:
Il have used Chamberlsin's Pain Balm
and have found 1t an excellent remedy
for lameneas and slight wounds" Lame
ness usually results from sprain, or
other injury, or from rheumatism, for
which Cham berlain's Pain Balm is es-
pecially intended and unequalled. It
affords almost immediate relief and in
snort time effects permanent cure. For
sale by Chas. Lyle Drug Co.
1T IS the best patent medicine in the
world" Is what Mr.. e. M. Hartman, of
Msrquam, Oregon, says Of Cham berlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhma Remedy,
What leads me to make this assertion
is from the fact that dysentery in it's
worat form was prevalent around here
last summer and it never took over two
or three doses OF that remedy to effect
q complete cure" For sale by the Chss.

HIS DEADLY AIM.
A Oolored Mans Unerring Rife Killed
the SheriF-EOt Yet Oaptured-No
One Hunting Him Now.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, July 5th Rail =
road Bill" notorious colored outlaw
and train rObber, sent a Winchester
bullet Wednesday night through the
heart of Sheriff Mcmillan, of Escambia
county.
The murder was committed near
Blue Springs, across Florida line.
Railroad Bill's record for year is a
bad one. He has conducted systemat-
ic freight rObberies, and detectives
have been on his trail constantly
Cornered in barn in Baldwin county
not long ago, he shot and killed two OF
| the posse and escaped.
AT Tensas, a little later, he stopped
an engine, shot the engineer, and es-
capped. A reward of 5000 was offered
for him, and a persistent chase ha:
been made. The best railroad detec'
tives in the South have spent months
in pursuing him.
Recently Sheriff Mcmillan organized
n party and started in pursuit. He
idrove the outlaw from the swamps neai
Bay Minette into Florida. WedHes
lday night he was close on the trail. A
his party walked along the tracks
l"Railroad Bill" concealed behind
tree, took deliberate aim and shot tn
sheriff dead.
Eighteen shots we're fired at him a
he fed, and he is known TO have bee
wounded Several hundred men ar
securing the swamp to-day. The out
law Will probably never he take
alive.

Poisoned Wounds and Their Treatment
Discussed.
A few words as to the treatment OF
wounds made with poisoned instrument,
Or by some poisonous reptile or insect, or
rabid animal, Will be of interest to every
mother or head OF a family, as it Is ire
quently very incOnvenient to obtain a ply
stefan quickly enough to prevent serious
consequences.
To prevent the spread Of the poison BAN
dages should be applied tightly above the
wound and the part scarified or sucked
Immediately.
The wound should then be washed with
a good antiseptic and germ killer. On
doubtedly the best wash in existence fol
this purpose is Quratol- Use lotion OF
Of one part of Quratol to six parts o.
water It will kill any poisonous germ
which may have been deposited, prevent
inflammation, keep the part healthy, and
If the wound is kept wet with this loticI
with bandages Of absorbent gauze or cot
ton it will heal quickly and effectually

His version as 70 how he became IN

kicked him, without warning, from the
moving train, when it was a cOnsidera

was found this morning 10y a police
man, who took him to the University
dispensary where his wounds were
dressed. He says that he, with sever

and that he was endeavoring to make

Great Truths Plainly Stated.

Petersburg, Va. Index-Appeal
II the legislature of Maryland had
approved the recommendation of Gov.
Brown that prisoners under sentence
of death should be confined in the
state penitentiary, Marshall +. Price
would not have been lynched on Tues
day night.
The governor of North Carolina i-as
made the same recommendation - ths
legislature of his state, but that body
did not act upon il at its last session
In Virginia Gov. O'Fcrrall hss sisown
"a fearless disposition o .uaiaGain the
majesty OF the law. ana up To date, we
believe, there has not been lynching
in the state during his administration.
There is every reason why the state
should take all necessary precaution
70 secure the execution OF the law III a
decent and orderly way. There are
! jails in Virginia and Maryland also, it
would appear, in which no prisoner
would be safe from the attack of a de-
| termined mob. To keep an accused
p0r-5a, especially one guilty of n
] heinOus crime, in such place is sim
! ply TO offer lawbreakers every facility
TO wreak their vengeance upon the gull
/ " wretch in their own way and with
out regard TO the forms of the law
] however great n villain the accused
may be, it is the solemn duty of the
state to secure TO him the fullest meas
ure of protection, but it is folly to in
trust his safe keeping TO one or two Of
ficers in a small frame building which
can easily be entered by a large body
of men who generally expect no resis-
lance and usually receive none.
The state can we'll afford 10 incur ex-
ira expense in removing accused per
sons To places of safety where they car
be kept until the time for trial accord
ing to process of law. Every action Of
violence on the part ofa mob culmina
ting in a victory over the law and tn,
taking of life without due warrant.
} costs the state more than the amount
necessary to remove the prisoners be
: yond the reach of lynchers. A state il
; which the law-breaking element rise
superior TO the law offers few attrac
5 tiOns to immigrants or capitalists. 1
is we'll TO bear this in mind when w
t hear, all too frequently, that lyncher
have saved the state the expense OF
2 trial. A greater fallacy was never ut
= tered. Every act of violence by tn
t mob is far reaching in its results an
{ | places a stigma upon the state whic
a cannot be measured in dollars an
cents.

It Speaks the Truth.

Petersburg, Va, Index-Appeal Dem
The Baltimore papers state that if
the mob which lynched Price could
have laid their hands upon the attOr-
ney who secured the respite for the
wretch it is probable that the lawyer
would have dangled from the-same tree
from which Prices body was suspend
ed. The sheriff of the county says:
cit would not have been we'll for
him had he been here last night. The
people regard him as the man who has
caused all the trouble. There were a
number of calls for him, and if he had
been here he would probably have got
ten coat of tar and feathers, orprob-
ably worse"
This shows how unreasOning the
mob is. The people made their owl
laws and the lawyer simply secured a
stay of execution according to the
rules which the people had framed anC
of course, approved. If mob law were
the law of the land no mans life would
be safe.

The Democratic Deficit.
ISL. Lonis Globe-Democrnt.

SJ. LOUIS OlOD6-OemOcraJ-
The Treasury deficit for the fiscal
year Just closed is in round numbers
$43, 25O, 600. which added TO the last
years deficit of nearly $4,000, 900,
makes total for two years of about
$4,000, 600, an average of $74I ,866
Der month, or over $l5S,0OO per day
There is good reason to believe that
the showing would be considerably
worse if it had been made up in strict
accordance with the facts. For sever
al weeks past, it is represented, proper
expenditures have been withheld and
the payment of accrued claims post
pOned in order to cut down the deficit
at the end of the year, thus misleading
the country as to the true condition of
things. However, at the best, it is bad
Ienough. There has been nothing like
/ it at any other time since the war. So
/ long as the Republican party was in
power, it not only kept the receipts up
to the expenditures, but also provided
a surplus for the rapid diminution Of
/ the public debt. Under the present
| Administration the debt has been in
creased instead of decreased, and the
Treasury gold reserve, the basis anC
security of our currency, has had t.
be replenished three times. The con
