That nor any other living man can

Base Ball News.

The game of ball played last Thurs
day between Summit and Brookhaven
at Summit resulted in an easy victory
for the home boys, the score being
II to 3. Carl Smiths "twirling," with
excellent support from Sparks, of
Grenada, catcher, and the rest of the
team did it,
The game that was scheduled for
Friday in McComb, Brookhaven VS.
McComb, for the special benefit of the
Confederate veterans, who had a re
union there on that day, was just be-
gun, Brookhaven at the bat, scoring
I runs on the first half two out, and
two men on bases, when a heavy rain
storm came and the game had to be
called. The result of the game can be
easily imagined.
Tomorrow, the 4th, and Friday, the
9TH, Crystal Springs and the r. L
Schercks will play here at Storms
Park. Crystal Springs has a nu mber
of strong players on its team, and
Brookhaven has held her colors up
well during the season, SO a close
game may be expected.
