DUT days speak not only OF the un-

and sin and selfshness. How fresh
and clean and spotless the days come
from the hand of God, and how stained

Newspapers Build Up q Town.

The business man who "cuts down
expenses" by pulling his advertise
ment from the local newspaper
makes the greatest mistake of his
life.
The farmer raises pure corn to
feed more stock to buy more land to
raise more corn, etc.
r, fhis ia the circle of the farmers
endeavor. The newspaper man So
licits more business TO get more
money to publish betterpaper, etc.
This is the newspaper circle.
Every dollar paid into the cash
drawer of a newspaper Office makes
a better newspaper, a better news
paper makes better town, better
town makes property more valuable
and work more plentiful.
This is the truth of newspaper
support ia a nutshell. No class of
business men on earth are so patrI-
otto as newspaper men. None
spend so great a percentage of "a
ceipts in improving their business,
none take so much pay in glory!
Don't be parsimonious with your

POUNDED THE LEATHER
Corsifaas League Team and Trinity uni-
sersiiY Team Engage IN sluaaiae
Match.

An exhibition game of baseball
was played yesterday afternoon on
the university diamond between the
Corsicana league team and Trinity
University. Conditioning the rep
utation OF the two teams 1t was nat
.urally expected that first class ex-
hibition OF the national game would
be put up, but 1t was without doubt
the poorest game ever played on the
local diamond. The game was de-
void of features worthy of special
mention and errors piled up thick
and fast. The leather was pounded
all over the ground. and while each
side chalked up fifteen hits, the Wis
itors appeared to put more force be-
hind the horside at critical times,
making singles, two-basers and tap
ping the sphere for three-baggers.
Longley for Corsicana took q home
run on a hot one to center. At the
end of the first inning the score
stood, Trinity and Corsieana 3, but
in the second inning when Corsie ana
sent five men across the plate the
home team went to pieces and did
not get settled down again until 1t
was too late to win the game. AT
the close of the ninth inning the
score stood; Corsicana ~. Trinity 8.

He got too much firewater on board while his horse pre- sumably had no water all day with the result that when he started home the horse had much the best action. He started north on center street but the horse lodged into an alley and ran to corral.

TOOK TWENTY ROUNDS
For Battling" Nelson to Get the De.
 cision Over Herrera.

Butte, Mont, Sept 5.-After twenty rounds of the fiercest milling ever wit messed in this city, Battling Nelson of Chicago, before 10000 persons was this afternoon given the decision over Aurelio Herrera, the Mexican. From the tap of the bell for the opening round the two lightweights waded in to each other with hammer and tongs. Nelson carried the fight to Herrera almost without cessation throughou5 the twenty rounds. Herrera scored the only knockdown of the fight, sending the Chicago lad to the floor with a hard right on the jaw and Nelson took the count to nine.
 Under the rules Herrera was obliged to return to his corner and before he could get at Nelson again the latter had recovered partially from his dazed condition and was able to block the rain of blows the Mexican was swing ing wildly at him. Herrera in his fran tic efforts to land knockout blow dropped his guard and Nelson with a straight swing caught the Mexican or the side of the jaw, staggering him A EUSl OI 4N6lSOn lnen sent jHG MSNl- can up against the ropes and Nelson although groggy himself, appeared tc

 The Chicago lad was fighting at suct close quarters as to place the Mexican at a disadvantage. Though Herrera. re- peatedly crossed his right. on Nelson
 his blows lacked their former force anC
 seemed to only sting the clever Chi. cago man into greater activity and ferceness.
 The capacity of Nelson to take pun ishment was marvellous and his tenac- ity in pushing the issue with the swar- thy opponent following the rain o1
 blows from the Bakersfield lad called forth prolonged applause.
 In the twentieth round Herrera went after Nelson in a wild manner, his ! blows being cleverly blocked by the Chicago lad, who sent in his left anC
 right to the Mexican's body with tell ing effect.
 The men fought for a purse of 8 5CO sixty per cent for the winner and forty
