Are Points Being Held Backp

The contestants are all wondering II
points are being held back, and The
Tribune is wondering, too. One of the
rules of the contest reads: "All sub
scriptions, and the cash to pay for
same. must be handed in at The Trib-
une office within the week in which
they are secured, so that papers may
he sent to subscribers at once The
same rule was in effect last year, and
yet the returns on the closing day
We're very large. There was not a par
ticle of evidence to show that all of
the points were not secured during that
week, as no subscribers had made
complaints about not receiving papers.
The probabilities are that this year,
like the last each contestant has
friends that have promised subscrip-
tions for the closing week, and that a
careful memorandum is kept of these,
so that they may be looked up when
the proper time arrives and collections
made.
Last year there were evidently many
such cases, as some very large re-
| turns were made, particularly on the
last day. The table below shows the
number of points the winning contest
ants brought in on the closing day

At the close of the contest last year
only one contestant retained the po-
sition he held at the opening Of the
day, and that was Charles Rodriguez,
who headed the list. Some went up,
while others went down. One young
man went from tenth to Dsth place,
while another went from fourth to
second. This year it is absolutely i'm
possible to forecast the result. The
contestants are nearly all retcent
when asked if they have many prom
ises for the closing day or week, and
it will be necessary to wait until Mon
day morning. September ., before a
definite result can be known, as re-
turns by mail might change the ap-
parent winners on Saturday night.

BASE BALL. TODAY.
Wckey q Hill and Gannett Concern Teams
Will Face Each Other. Today.

That there will be lively hustle on
the diamond at the Augusta Driving
park, this afternoon. is a foregone con-
,lusion: for the base ball players at
the publishing houses of The Nickery
& Hill 60. ana the Gannett Co. will line
up in mortal array. The young fellows
have been practicing for days and they
are in the pink of condition.
Rob Murphy. who made record as
catcher on the Cony High few years
ago, will occupy the same position for
the Y. & II. team and Parquette will
twirl the ball to him with all the skill
of an old timer. The other players
know what it is to collar flies and skin
for the home plate in season to score.
For the Gannetts, Mcnamara. and
Bessey will be the battery. They are
no novices at the game of base ball,
nor are the other seven who will sup
port them in the infield and the out.
The indications point to rafting
game, perhaps a better and more in
teresting one than professionals usual
~ put up.
The game will be called at a quarter
past five, after the publishing houses
close the days work. The positions are
az follows:
VickerysLMurphy, &C.; Parquette,
