to stand for anything their home olul
does will soon get mighty bad srticl,
OF ball. One reason Cairo always
has such = strong team is that the pa
pers and patrons give them all that il
coming TO them, the bad along will
the good.
Doll is still dol ng good work for
Clsrksville. Psducah should have

Psducah is still in the lead, but
Cairo is a close second.
The statement that Land has been

Notwithstanding the predictions
that it would not stand until the
Fourth OF July, the X. I. t. Baseball
league is now in better condition
than il was at the beginning of the
season, two months ago. The attend
ance at nearly all of the towns has
been beyond the most sanguine expec-
tations. Vincenues has been drawing
better week day crowds than many of
the towns in larger organizations in
the country.
George wilkinson, recently engaged
as manager Of the Vincennes team,
is meeting with success and has al.
most succeeded in eliminating the
weak spots on the team.
Efforts will be made in few weeks
TO arrange . series Of games between
the winners of the pennsnt in the
Central League and the winners in
the K. i. T. league.
Paducah's anvil chorus just now is
one of the best ever heard. They are
knocking their team as whole and
individually, morning, noon and
night. --Hoptinsville New Era.

CLOSE TO HEAD
Leaden Missile Comes Near Kill
ing Mate Aubrey, on Fowler.
Fired By Some Reckless Person at
wickliffe, Ky. July 4.

Mate Gus Aubrey, of the Steamer
Dick Fowler, had . close call on
Fourth of July at Wicklitfe, Ky, the
particulars of which have just been
made public. The boat was running
an excursion down the river and as
she pulled away from the landing at
Wickliffe, there was a sharp report
from somewhere on the bank, and u
bullet sped past the mates ear and
buried itself in the bulkhead of the
Texas, not an inch from his head.
The mate was off duty and standing
near the door Of his quarters at the
time. idly looking towards the town,
and does not know whether someone
was trying to kill him, OF whether IL
WAS simply a stray bullet from the
rifle Of some denizen full Of squirrel
juice" who thought ne was tttingly
celebrating the glorious Fourth. AT
any rate no one was in sight.
AS Mate Aubrey has no enemies az
Wickliffe that he knows of, he is in
clined to think that it was merely a
stray bullet that came near striking
him. He is certain OF one thing,
however and that is that whoever it
was couldn't have come much closer if
he had been doing his dsrndest.
Captain Bob Order had the bullet
removed from the wood and will keep
it as a souvenir.
