Manager Coleman Having
Hard Time Securing

Srons Aggregation Will be Here for
Three Games-Savannah C. L. A.

\ Pilots.

Manager Coleman Is having some
what of a hard time to secure ball

to wait until next week to see some
games.
AS was stated yesterday, Mr. Cole
man has been in communication with
Cordele and Fitzgerald, but both of
these clubs notified him yesterday that
they could not come.
Manager Coleman then telephoned
Waycross and the team of that city,
which has been reorganized and great
ly strengthened, said they would come
for three games, today, Friday and
Saturday, but late lat night the man
ager telephoned that the team could
not come and therefore we will hardly
have any games this week, unless
some other team cfn be secured for
games tomorrow and Saturday
1T is no fault of Manager Coleman,
however, that games have not been
secured, as he has made every effort
possible to secure team for this
week.
The Catholic Library Association
team of Savannah has again cancelled
their dates for Friday and Saturday of
next week. Manager Coleman re.
ceived letter from the manager of
the club yesterday stating that the
team could not come, but no reason
whatever was given. This makes the
third time that the c. L. A. team has
made dates with the Pilots and then
cancelled them, and Manager Coleman
will not again endeavor to get them.
The truth OF the matter is, the Pilots
have already defeated every Savannah
team except this one, and the c. L.
a. boys are simply afraid that they
will meet the same fate should they
come over.
For Thursday, Friday and Saturday
OF next week the crack Quitman team
will be here. Quitman was member
of the Southeastern League and has
one OF the best clubs in this section,
and the games will no doubt be among
the most interesting of the season,

booked by Manager Coleman, is now
in the city and will be seen on the
firing line during the next series.

Weeling, w. Va, July 2S.-But for
the timely arrival of policemen, John

ragged mob on Wheeling island to-
night. John Posteoh, who was drunk,
caught in his arms and embraced a
well-known and respected lady resid-

escorted, late in the evening. The
womans cries wereAquickly answered
by citizens, who rushed from their
homes. The man took to his heels,
pursued by a crowd which was in
creased every minute.
When the mob drew close to the
foreigner he wheeled and drew a dirk
fully IL inches in length, and held the
mob at bay for some time. A cobble-
stone hurled the knife out of the man $
hand, while another struck him on the
head and knocked him down. Stone
