Mrs. Hydrick will be brought tomorrow to see the negro. Thote is no talk what soever of a lynching.

The doughty sticks of the Crackers from the State of Atlanta led, aided and abetted by one Mckay won yesterdays game by a score of to l, thus giving the Crackers the series.
 The loss of yesterdays game cannot be laid on the shoulders of the Pretzels they gave Wilson support that would win nine out of ten games, only one error being charged to them. In all twelve hits, including a home run. a three bagger and three two -baggers. We smashed out by the Crackers, a -th.- -baggen two.bagger and single being punched in the third inning, a sixth, a two-bsgger and couple of sim gles in the seventh, and a single and hcme run in the eighth.
 Besides this, Wilson was wild, hit- ting two men. one of them-Dtck Cro- zier-being completely knocked out 'or some moments, and 1t would have been strange had the score been any other way. Krug was being disciplined for something that he had done--or had not done-and Mckay played third in his like yesterdays 1t would be a ten strike if Powell could keep him In the Dutchman's place every day. out Of four times at bat, he got home run, gles, besides having three put outs and five assists without an error.
 Charlie Schwartz played brilliant game also, getting two of the five hits made off McMakin, a sacrifice hit, stolen base. five putouts and three assists, without an error.
 Umpire Wood made several rank de- cisions against the locals. Winters was on third when he was hit by a smash in that direction Instead of calling him out, as he should have done, Woods claimed that he did not see It and allowed Winters to score.
 Then again on two separate occa- sions Harry Manners tagged runners at the plate, Woods. however, allowing them to score. While these decisions would have had no effect on the ulti- mate result, still the fans here like to see at least a semblance of fair play.
 The treatment that Montgomery has received from President Kavanaugh this summer has been, to say the least of it. rather peculiar In a majority of nearly every one of the home series Wood has been sent to Montgomery, while a man who has the reputation of being one of the squarest umpires in the League-Arlie Lathem-has never once been sent to Montgomery. Wood left last night, however, and Lathem. for the first time this season, will prob ably be sent to Montgomery to umpire the Nashville series beginning today. Yesterdays score was:

Tuo naa p,ckaninn,e..

George Baker of Atlanta and James Henry Wales of Birmingham, two lit tie negro boys. were bound over to rus tic life by Judge Feagin of the police court yesterday and turned over to s. H. Simpson, a we'll known farmer of Fayette County. They were both caught by the police Monday while trespassing in the yards of the Louis- vile and Nashville Railroad, where they are suspected of molesting the freight cars and their machinery.
 Young Baker and Wales are com panions with no short criminal careers and have been arrested and convicted several times by the police. They were two of the five boys who made the swift escape from a passenger train last week while en route to the Daily farm for their reformation. They beat their way back frim Jonesville believed. and were apprehended by the police only a few hours after their re- turn Monday.
 The negroes who have been let to the Simpson farm, in Fayette County, by Judge Feagin, seem to have met with remarkable success. Six of the seven MT. Simpson has taken in charge are working industrially on the farm gathering the crops. The mother of one of them questioned the legal right of Judge Feagin to send her son away from home in such a manner. She was told that she could recall her son at her bidding, but that he would have to reappear in court and be sentenced to the jail. Her son begged MT. Simp- son not to be taken back home. reply ing to his mother that he was getting plenty of watermelons, peaches and pears" and did not want to come back to Birmingham!

Rival Political Rallies,

Although the Republican rally and the rally in contemplation by the Par ker and Davis Club are set upon the same date, there is no likelihood of there being conflict, for the reason that there Is a disposition upon the part of the Democrats to give way to their political antagonists, and it is thought that the Democratic rally may be postponed to a later date. It is probable that special meeting of the Parker and Davis Club will be called to take action upon the suggestion. which Is meeting with favor with the Democrats. The Republicans first set their date. and 1t is understood that the selection of the same day by the Parker and Davis Club was done in ig- norance of the conflict with the Re- publican date.
 The prospect is that Mir. Littlefield. who has been elected as one of the Re- publican political speakers on the night of the 18th of September will not be able to come at that date. The Re- publicans will hold their rally, how ever regardless of whether MT Little field comes or not, ard they promise to have number of noted speakers in at tendance. The Democratic raly will be set with view of meeting the con- venience of the speakers, who have been invited. Sanford. Hobson and other noted speakers will be in attend ance at the Democratic rally.
 Mir. J. O. Thompson, Chairman of the State Committee of the Republican party, has gone to Montgomery looking after affairs of the party in that place While nothing is given out here as to his mission 1t is likely to be in refer ence to the position in the marshal's office of the Middle District of Ala ba

HALF OF CROP
 HAS BEEN PICKED.
Seasonal Temperatures Oper Cotton Rapidly-Gins Rushed Short Yield General
 Report.

For the week ending October 24.-A total absence of rain with temperatures about seasonal and frost the latter part of the week. were the characteristic features of the weather during the week. Cotton continues to open rapidly and in some localities is nearly all open; picking has progressed rapidly under favorable weather conditions, and a considerable portion of the crop has been picked, ranging from forty to sixty per cent in the northeast section, to sixty-five to eighty per cent in the southeast and southwest sections; gins are rum running at full capacity and the cotton is being marketed in some sections almost as fast as it is ginned. The yield is fully up to expectations in the northeastsec- tion, and better than anticipated in some localities, but generally the reports indicate a short yield. Corn is being gathered rapidly and gathering about completed in the more southern counties; taken on the whole the early corn made a good crop, but the late will be short. Late potatoes and turnips are poor crops owing to insufficient moisture. The dry weather has retarded fall plow- ing and very little of that work has been done. Pastures are drying up as a rule, and stock water is scarce and stock are suf- fering in some sections. Apples are,about all gathered; the yield is a little better than the pros poets promised early in the sea- son.

THE PISTOL NUISANCE.

Circuit Judge J. N. Tillman of the Fourth judicial circuit, in his charge to the grand jury at Fay etteville Monday, emphasized the importance of enforcing the laws against carrying concealed weap- ons. On this line Judge Till- man said:
 The pistol nuisance should be abated. In the early days of this month a bright boy was accident ally killed at the state university by being shot, while he and a companion were playing with a pistol, thought to be unloaded. This boys life was worth more to the state than all the pistols ever made. Have you ever yet heard of a pistol carried as a weapon by a private citizen serv- ing any useful purpose what ever? On the contrary, it would be difficult to estimate the troub- le, expense and number of deaths this pernicious and reckless prac- tice has caused.
 Strong words like these to the grand jurors should not be fruit less. The laws of Arkansas against carrying pistols and other concealed weapons should be en- forced to the utmost. Arkansas Gazette.
