BREWTON TAKES SECOND
FREDERICK SUPPORTED AD-
 MIRABLY.
Starr Pitchs Unusually Fine Game for Gersts, But Ragged Work in Field Gave Brewton the Game
 Easily-Falcons Today.

Over-anxiety of the Gersts to win yes- terday's game caused Starr to be slaugh- tered after pitching a remarkably good game of ball.
 This Is the story of Brewton's second victory. Frederick. while he pitched an unusually good game, was saved by his support. and If the Gersts had backed up Starr like Brewton did Frederick the result would have been entirely different The game is over, however, and the Ec- cambia County people have captured both of the games-it is now up to the Fall cons to see what the result of today's game will be.
 For three innings Frederick and Starr shot swift ones over the plate with the regularity of steam engines, their re- spective teams supporting them like clockwork In the fourth inning Stickney got single and Cade two-bagger-his second hit of the game-both scoring on small errors. In the Brewton half of the inning Starr gave his first base on balls. Then cams some punched errors and be- fore the inning was over four Brewton men were to the good. The score was now and in favor of Brewton. Moores hit more over and singles by Moore. Rankin and E. Fritz put two more over in the eighth The Gersts never saw the plate after the fourth inning and the game closed ' and in favor of Brewton The

ing III that queer land called NamaGualand
The Bushman arrow consists of very
small triangular iron head fixed in a short
piece Of reod, tC which II Is tied tightly
with thin leather reims, but In such way
that the iron head easily leaves the shati
of the arrow like the JOints OF D fishing ROC
sometimes there Is Il second Joint fitted De
tween the shaft and the headplece.
The rcasoE Of these Joints is readily seen
Suppose an animal has received the arrow
in his flank. he would naturally turn
around his head and try 10 tear the arrow!
out. This could be managed in one pull if
the head and shaft be soltdly tOined to-
sether, but where he has TO pun out first

ATE THE RAILS.
Hungry Wolves Stopped Traffic on an
Early Northwestern Railroad.

From the Buffalo Express
About 1872 one of the first railroads of
the northwest was built in the territory of
washington from Walla Walla to WaIIule
along the banks of the Walla Walla river.
ana following the general line of what is
now the Oregon Railway and Navigation
Company 8 road between those points The
road was primitive affair, and was built,
oWneG and operated by DR.. Baker of Walla
Waila. 1t mad no Pullman cars, chair cars
or buffet ears, and the day coaches were
mostly platform or fiat cars. Instead Of
having right of way the road had per-
mission to go through the fields of the
farmers. Consequently the road was not
q rapid transit one, as the train hands had
to get of and lay down the rail fences and
put Them up again after the train had
passed through
The roadbed was constructed by layins
crossttes six or eight feet apart and on
those laying wooden stringers for rails
The heavy traffic over the road caused the
rails to wear IN spots SO that train wrecks
ann smashups were OF daily occurrence.
ihese were not serious, for when the ira in
crew saw 81 wreck coming their way they
would hop off and let it wreck.
Inc annOyanCes however, soon became
detrimental to the interests of shippers. 20
the owners had to devise some means of
overcoming the difficulty. Rails of stand
ard railroad iron were out Of the question,
as they had TO be shipped 'the Horn
around" and freighted by wagon quite a
distance strap iron could not be had The
doctor. with Yankee shrewdness, finally hit
upon the happy idea of substituting raw
hide for strap iron. Cattle were plentiful
and rawhide cheap SO the doctor soon had
ms track layers at work putting the raw
hide ON the wooden stringers. The raw
hide coon became dry and as hard as iron.
and answered the purpose admirably dur
ing the dry weather
succeeding hn wi - xh>
rawhlde track was severe one FOR that
part of the country The snow lay on the
ground for several weeks. The wolves
were driven from the mountains by the
deep snow and skirmished for living as
best they could In the valleys When the
snow began to melt 1t softened the raw
hide rails and the hungry wolves soon
found the tracks. When spring came and
the snow had melted the wolves had eaten
! up the railroad track from WalIa WalIa to
Waliula.

A CLEAN JOB OF IT.
The Bank Cashier Got Away With the
Whole Assets.
From the New Orleans Trmes-Democrat.

From the New Orleans Tmes-Democrat.
Speaking OF bank robberies, the most re-
markable case I have ever known was in a
small Texas town near the Mexican line, -
said an old reporter, "and the man who fig
ured in 1t was an old schoolmate OF mine.
He was a good fellow. and had worked his
way up to the position of cashier. II was
in one Of the more prosperous Texas towns
and the bank was doing immense busi-
ness on account Of the adjacency to some
of the large cattle ranches. The bank was
under the supervision Of the federal gov
ernment, and the inspectors had been around
at intervals, and had always found the insti-
tuition in a f1ourishing condition, and with
the accounts OF the cashier in good order.
But 1t was all a trick In bookkeeping, yet
one Of those tricks which frequently fool
the examiners. The fact was that the CASH
Ter had beel. carrying on system OF spec
hopelessly in the hole. One day the exam
iner dropped In and went over the books,
counted the cash on hand, checked up the
bills receivable and all that sort Of thing
and found everything on the square aprar-
emily. But the cashier was feeling little
worried. He thought the examiner had a
suspicious look. The examiner left for
some little town near by The next even
ing the cashier happened to be near the de-
pot when the train came in. He saw the
examiner get off. He knew this meant some
thing. He told his wife about the whole
thing. told her he was hopelessly in the
hole, that he was nearly a million dollars
short, and he would have to leave. But be-
fore going he visited the bank and opened
the vaults, and when he got through he
had 100000 or 100000 in his trunk. He
left for Mexico. There was no treaty at
the time covering the offense Of embezzle-
ment. and he knew besides that he could
protect himself at all hazards. The exam
liner went around to the bank the next
morning, thinking that he would surprise
the cashier The cashier had switched the
tables. The vaults were empty. 1 think the
examiner found, all told about $1.S5 in the
bank. The cashier had the balance, and
was out of reach Guilty conscience had
quickened the cashiers sense of danger,
and he 1eaped just in time to miss the pen
itentiary. He was finally located in Mexico,
and an officer from Texas arrested him,
but the Mexican authorities would not give
the officer place to imprison the fugitive.
and I suppose he is still across the border,
prospering on the money he pilfered."
