We were asked few days ago why

confess that we could not give single
reason, but since then we have taken
a look at one and asked questions until
we can give some good reasons. They
wear jacket, an apron, have hose,
and drag a train behind them. They
have lap, need guides, ride wheels
sometimes foam and refuse to work.
They attract the men sometimes ana
are contrary, and it always takes a
man to manage them.

TWO GOOD GAMES. T
Dawson Wins Victories from
Shellman and Cuthbert
i'm Close Contests.
in Close Contests.

Dawson played in is usual good luckq
Wednesday, when it took victory by
the score of five to three from its lit
tie neighbor, Shellman. The game
was one Of the best seen here this sea-
son, and it looked like Shellman's un'
til the last inning, when Dawson rapL.
ed out three runs. Both batteries
showed up in good form.
In the game between Dawson and
Cuthbert Friday the Capitolas came
out in the lead to the tune of six to
four. 1t was undou btedlY anybody's
game until the completion of the ninth
inning, and for two innings the Cuth-
bert boys hept in the lead.
Martin and Westbrook for Dawson
and Foy and Perry for Cuth bert were
the batteries. Martin pitched good
game for Dawson, striking out five,
giving two bases on balls and yielding
six hits. Foy's slab work for thbert,
barring the tact that he was a little
wild, was an excellent exhibition of
box work. The Auburn boy struck
out ten men, gave four bases on balls
and yielded six hits. Both catchers
did their part of the work we'll.
Several errors were piled up by both
teams, but altogether it was very
good game.

the day after the cyclone in White
county by Mr.. j. P. Evans, and were
turned over to Mr.. A. IS. Erwin, who
had gone to White county to take
Mrs. Whisenant to her fathers. Mrs.
Whisenant's policy was found one

The question of pooling issues other
