The Garth Fund.

SeveralImonths ago THEsNEws directed
thesattention of its readers to the fact that
the committee in charge of the Garth
Fund had not loaned cut this money. We
understand that afte so long time the
money was finally loaned, the bulk of it to
the county, but we also understand that
the sinterest for the short time that it has
been loaned amounts to practically moth
ing and that the poor boys of Bourbon, to
whom the fund was donated for educa-
tional purposes, must suffer the ensuing
year. 1t is said that there will be no
money for new applicants as the principal
cannot be touched, only the interest must
be used. This is a matter that should be
attended to in the future and let the de-
serving young men of Bourbon, who are
entitled to this money have the benefit
of it.

ADJUSTMENTS.

commencing Thursday night, August
4, the popular Howard Dorset Company
will open the Grand Opera House Little
need be said in praise of this excellent
company, they having played Paris be-
fore, and always gave the best satisfaction
of any repertoire company that visits these
parts. The opening play will be "The
Golden Giant Mine,' Western drama,
depicting life in Colorado during the time
many rushed West in search of gold.
Special attention will be devoted to
scenery in this piece, making it realistic
in all its minor details. Friday night the
grent laugh producer will be offered, viz:
"The Man From Mexico" This play has
been presented by Willie Collier in the
best theatres over the country and it was
in this vehicle that gave him prominence.
Mr.. Geo. w. Howard, Paris favorite
commedian, will portray the part of
Benjaman Fitzhew, and is part that is
a part that is more than fitted TO Mr..
Howards' style. In "The Two Orphans, I"
Saturdays matinee bill, Miss Flora Dorset
will essay Louise, the blind girl, and will
no doubt. aided by her charming personal
ity, do full justice to the part. Special
ties, consisting of singing and dancing,
moving pictures, and acrobatic acting will
be interspersed between acts.
On Thursday night, opening evening,
panied by one paid thirty-cent ticket. The
ladies free tickets will be limited to 200 in
number.

A Great Game.

The ball game Sunday afternoon at
Bacon's Grove between Paris and Cow
ington All Collegians, was by far the best
game of the season. The Collegians are
an excellent aggregation of ball players,
and the manner in which they backed up
their pitcher would be a credit to anv
league team. The best of teams some
times lose and in this instance their de-
feat is no discredit. Their pitcher, Nc
Brann, pitched an excellent game, as the
score, indicates, Paris only securing five
hits OH his delivery. In the field, the
Collegians caught every thing that came
their way, in fact made several brilliant
catches and pick-ups of hot grounders.
In the seventh inning they executed very
neat double-play that brought forth much
applause, but however they could not win
in the face of the masterly pitching of
Cooper, who struck out thirteen men.
Cooper is pitching magnificent ball with
deceptive out curve, great speed, perfect
control and excellent judgment. He has
proven himself holy terror against all
comers, his record in the last three games
being forty-fve strike outs.
Paris played quick snappy ball from
start to finish, tying the score in the second
inning and in the fourth going them one
better. They, like their opponents made
several oood Catcbae In..I.:, . E
hot liner while covering third base being
the star play of the afternoon The game
was an undecided contest until the last
man was out in the ninth. From the
fourth inning to the close of the game the
play was intensely exciting and local fans
and enthusiasts were on their p's and q's,
and with man on third in the ninth and
only one run needed to tie the score.
Cooper with hat off and inspired by the
demands of the occasion, struck out the
opposing batsman, ending the intense
agony that seemed to engulf the crowd.
bringing forth vociferous wells of
enthusiasm
Manager Thomas is to be congratulated
for his indomnitable work in bringing such
good teams here to contest with the local
boys, and any game arranged by him
carries with it the assurance of being a
contest worthy of the attendance of all
interested in the great National sport.
