fearful jump, indeed-then goes
back home for eighteen games straight.
Then she jumps from home to An
niston-a jump of about $50 miles,
and the only jump of any length she
makes. From Admission, instead of
having to jump clear back home, like
jump over to Bessemer, then up to
! Sheffield then to Columbia. then to
| Decatur, aud around home again.
Chattanooga is the same way, only
she doesn t make single long jump.
For instance, she opens at home next
Monday with Knoxville; then both
Chattanooga goes home for Is straights;
then leaves for Is games abroad. But
Just look how compactly her circuit is
arranged: First, after leaving home
she opens at Huntsville, jump of
only SO miles; then over to Sheffield,
then up to Columbia. then right down
the line to Decatur, then to Bessemer,
then to Admission, then home. No kick
there, surely
Chattanooga and Knoxville both
have IA games at home. Columbia 81.
Knoxville has 10 straight on her own
grounds, Chattanooga 10, Columbia II.
In addition to the big jumps pointed
out above, Columbia makes another
jump from Sheffield to Knoxville.
Now, why could not 1t have been
arranged for Columbia to play either
Huntsville or Chattanooga, while en-
route to Knoxville? 1t may be said that
you can't always fix it that way. But
it was fixed that way for Knoxville
and Chattanooga, alright enough.
No wonder the local management are
kicking. They have kick coming,
and a good strong one too. President
Head, of Chattanooga, ought to
have the schedule committee to try
again. But it won't be DONE The !
schedule has been too long delayed, |
anyhow. They have waited until the
last week to arrange it,and now, instead !
Of calling a meeting of the managers
to ratify and adopt the schedule, it
is sent out at the last minute, so to
speak, and rammed down the throats of
the smaller cities, willy nilly.

BASE BALL.
Schedule Completed to July 4,
Columbia Gets the Worst
of Lit.
LOCAL MANAGEMENT
WILL PROTEST

The schedule committee of the Ter
nessee- A Iabama league has completed
| its labors, and copy of the schedule
was received last Tuesday by Manager
Wilkins. The schedule is extremely
unsatisfactory to the local management,
and a vigorous protest will be made
against it. From an examination of
the schedule, it looks very much like
the schedule committee has given Chat
tanooga and Knoxville everything, at
the expense of the smaller towns, and
especially Columbia has been given the
'hot end" of it For instance, Colum-
bia opens the season next Monday at
Huntsville. From there she jumps to
Admission, a distance of 175 miles.
This would not be 30 bad, il reason
able way was provided for getting out
of Admission. But instead of this, in
stead of Columbia going from Admission
to Chattanooga, or to Bessemer, on her
lay back home, she jumps clear back
through to Columbia. Thus. in order
to play the first two series, Columbia
has got to travel 800 miles. Then after
the fret week abroad, and after coming
home for nine games, Columbia must
lump to Chattanooga, for three games,
Iutu W huOANlilC. bbC'I OoSh w A1hOA
field, then home for twelve straights
with Huntsville, Chattanooga, Knox
Vile and Decatur Then she leaves
home, opening at Decatur June 81, for
three games, then jumps to Knoxville,
then to Chattanooga, where she plays
the Fourth of July. From here it is
not known where the locals go, as the
schedule has only been arranged to the
4 t,,l. hot
the team should then go on to Admission,
then to Bessemer, then back up to De
catur, or Sheffield, and then home for a
good long stay, but according to the
way the team must jump by the sched-
ule as arranged go far, Columbia will
probably jump from Chattanooga to
Bessemer, as that would be very hard
jump to make.
On the other hand, Knoxville and
Chattanooga have excellent schedules
in fact, little too good. For in
stance, the former opens the season
next Monday at Chattanooga-a

As to That New R. R.

The Great Bend & Southern rail
road proposition has been pretty tho
roughly discussed by our people, and
while there are some who still think
the whole matter is but. plan for the
Missouri Pacific to get right of way
through the city, SO as to reach the
milling and elevator district now
served only by the Santa Fe: the
majority of our people are of the
opinion that the new road is part of
a general north and south road to
eventually reach from Manitoba on
the north to the Gulf of Mexico on
the south.
Should this opinion prove correct
and we hope it will-there is not
much but what our people ought to
do to aid in securing it. A north
and south road through Kansas,
tapping the gulf ports, would in our
opinion be worth millions of dollars
toethe state and for Great Bend to be
on such line would be of untold adj
vantage to our city
The only thing that the average
citizen does not quite understand is,
that the gentlemen asking for right
of way insisted on a certain street
through the town, when other streets
could be secured with little opposi-
ton, and when right of way has
been offered them only
few streets east of the one they ask
for, or clear east of the city limits,
through private property.
When Mr.. Patterson left he stated
to the writer that he would be back,
and with a plan that the council will
accept. We hope he is right.

Hoising ton Grows.

The reports of the progress of the
city of Hoisington are not exaggerat-
ed. A few hours spent in that indus
trious locality last Friday, convinced
us that the people are up and doing,
and that the city is rapidly going to
the front. There are a great number
of new houses, and all of them fairly
sized ones, in course of construction
and more contemplated. The city is
being well supplied with sidewalks,
and the trees are getting up SO that
they are of some good and many
nice lawns have been started. A petit
ton is now be ing circulated calling on
the city council to submit a bond pro-
position for the purchase of a water
works system, and is being we'll sign
ed. The street lights are all right,
and reminds us that we should have
the arclights on our streets. Hoising-
ton is growing and that is no mistake
