Af- ter a lingering illness of many months duration, Miss Stella Blackman died at the home of her parents on Eufaula Street at o'clock Sunday afternoon. The funeral took place from Union Baptist Church at { o'clock yesterday afternoon, the sermon being preached by Rev. J. s. Yarbrough, her pastor.

 The commencement exercises of the Ozark Graded School will begin with sermon by the Rev. c. c. Pugh of Au- burn at the Baptist Church at II o'clock next Sunday morning.
 Labor is scarce and high. One man. who nays an individual State and county tax of between $500 and $40O annually, failed to get hands, and he both held and drove for nearly two weeks. Another man of wealth and position took the lead row in his field for A week, and Is at 1t now. In some nlanes the women have gloved, their hands and pinned down their sun bon nets and gone to the. field with their hoes. Labor simply cannot be had at any reasonable price. and 1t is work right now or lose the crop. Grass Is abundant. the cotton plants look red and lice have made their appearance in many fields

Jesse Taylor, negro, who appeared in Police Court thiA morning on the charge of being drunk and disorderly, was given the heaviest fine that could be imposed upon him by Mayor Atkins according to the city charter Yester- day afternaan at little negro res- taurant on Sylvan Street between Wa ter and Alabama, Taylor terrorized the whole neighborhood. He cursed sev- eral white men and ran away few negroes, He made some little white girls who were riding their bicycles down that side of the street take the other sidewalk. He also cursed the police force and stated that not a one of them could arrest him. An officer was finally telephoned for and Mounted oficer Burfitt soon appeared and arr rested Taylor. It was with consider able trouble that the negro was got ten to police headquarters and it was also with trouble that he was finally locked up.

form. He hated this dude pitcher.
 When the game opened the Cordova nine, losing the toss, went to the bat first, to be retired in one, two, three order. Pembroke, as he came in from the pitchers box smiled at his sweet heart Reddy saw him smile and grin ned unpleasantly to him. If he couldn't boast of a good figure and fine features he possessed a good pitching arm. If he wasn't able to win a girl he could win a game. I'll make him look small before her, anyhow" he mutter- ed.
 The game developed into a pitchers
 battle. The players caught the spirit of their leaders and supported them faultlessly. Again and again the crack batsmen on both sides strove nightly but unsuccessfully to hit the ball. The score at the end of the eighth inning
 was one to one.
 As Reddy seated himself upon the
 players bench at the opening of the
 conversing upon subject which in-
 terested him.
 'Pembroke's working hardr one of them remarked.
 'sNo wonderr another said. He gets a place on a major league team if he wins. I heard 1t from Pembroke himself" the speaker continued, in an-
  ager of one of the big teams-the same chap Manager Benson got ahead of when he signed Reddy here--has his eye on Pembroke, whose average stanrs next to Reddy's. But he's watch ing Marley of the Cliftons, too whose l average is just below Pembroke's. Now neither of the two have won a game from Reddy, so when the manager heard that this game was to be played | ha "a he place would be his" The first batter was retired on strikes. He's gamer' player remarked. He's working Tor more than a big leagues positionw Daily said. He's engaged to a girl over there in the grand stand. When big league pays assured he's going to get married" The second batter was also retired on strikes.
 Good luck to them" one of the first speakers responded. If that's so we won't mind losing"
 We ain't going to lose, though" growled Reddy, as he went to take his turn at the bat. the batter preceding gaving managed to secure a base on balls. A moment later, to the deter
 mined Reddy's great satisfaction, he | made a single. The bleachers. who were anxiously awaiting an opportunity, now brought into use every conceivable Fmeans to rattle Pembroke. The place became a pandemonium.
 Pembroke knew that his crucial mo- ment had arrived. At an earlier time under similar circumstances, he had l lost control of his nerves and disaster had resulted. He had dreaded ever
 since the approach of such a crisis He
 battled against his nervousness. but
 despite his efforas the batter who faced him went to first on balls. The pam
 demonium continued. Hope. however.

 The placards which had been display ed throughout Cordova. announcing post-season game between the home club and the Hillsboro nine, the team which had fought Cordova so stup- bornly for pennant honors, brought throngs to see the game. Not only dld the prospect of a close game attract the people. They were to have their first opportunity to pay homage to the sturdy fellows who had brought to the town the handsomest pennant whicn now fioated over the ball park.
 The lions share of the crowds at- tention went to Reddy Dillon. who nad been Cordova's mainstay in the pitcn- CTS box. Reddy, however, was not then an appreciative mood, although no one but himself could be blamed for that which caused his unhappiness. fJpon the day before, Reddy had been nt the railroad station when young lady alighted from the train. Fer ceiving by her bewilderment that sne was in a strange town and surmising that the person she had expected to meet was not there, he with true Irish gal lantry, had offered his services. The girl timidly accepted his offer and un- der his guidance soon reached her des- tinatfon. Now with so slight material the impressionable Reddy had begun to weave a romance, for the girls love Illness had captured him from the start Although he remembered how his ug1- ness had caused the girls of Cordova to worship him from afar only, mistak1ng the grateful girls natural cordiality, he comforted himself with the sophistry that this girl was not of Cordova and therefore different in temperament from the town girls. He then began to plan a way to met her again, de- ciding to ask Daly, one of his com rades who boarded at the house at which the girl was staying, to bring about an introduction after the game, were she a spectator.
 When the hour for the game drew near he began to watch for her. To his delight he saw her enter the grand stand and choose a seat in the front row. He was all the more de- lighted when he saw that she was un- attended but his joy vanished when he saw Pembroke, Hillsboro's pitcher, ac- proach her, for she made no effort to conceal her joy at the meeting. The more Reddy watched the pair the more he became convinced that they were sweethearts. Her presence in Cordova was now explained-she had come 10 see her lover pitch. As his dream faded Reddy became moody, causing much wonderment among the friends who sought him out. And as he look- ed at the handsome Pembroke, his own ugliness impressed itself upon him. By A strange freak of his hot nature his euILiness turned to anger against his unconscious rival. He now saw self esteem in every movement of Penn broke; he beheld the marks of dandy in the players neat, well-fitting uni

came to the distressed pitcher when he saw the next batter. This man was the weakest batter on the team. Cun- ningly he delivered the ball, eager to stop those hellish noises. But the un- expected happened. The batter caught the ball squarely upon the end of his bat It scared away like a. freed bird, striking at last against the right field fence It seemed home run, but Par sons, the right fielder, made a throw which landed the ball in the catcher's hands before the runner crossed the plate, and he was called out. But Cor dova was now three runs ahead.
 The home team now took the field, bent upon retiring its opponent in short order. The first Hillsboro bat ter struck out; the second bunted. but as result of Reddys clever fielding. found the first baseman awaiting to touch him with the ball. Victory for Cordova seemed assured, but things were yet to take an amusing turn.
 Now, as the third batter was ap- preaching the plate, Reddy glanced to- wards Pembroke's sweetheart. Ills glance became a stare, for he beheld her furtively wiping her eyes, and he noticed that he face was as white as the rag she held against 1t. Another impuse, as sudden in it's coming as was
  broke, seized Reddy.
 Play ball! cautioned the umpire. Reddy resumed pitching. Although delivered with great care the first ball dug into the earth before the home plate. The next ball, as cautiously delivered, flew so high that the catcher had to jump for 1t. That person gasp ed, while Reddy scratched his head in apparent perplexity. Four balls were soon oaIIad Thoae who hut a moment
 before were shouting triumphantly now sat silently staring at the idol. The next batter had two strikes and three balls called upon him when, with many a twist, Reddy delivered ball which went wide of the batsman's reach by the length of yard. The batter who followed was struck in the side by an inshoot. And now, with the bases filed. Reddy at last found the plate. But the ball that sped across 1t was such that a tyro's bat could not corded, together with the three runs
 which preceded it. The next batter
 struck out. but Hillsboro had won by a run.
 In awful gloom, the spectators dis persed. Suddenly, without a comfort- | ing word to Redy, his comrades left
 the field. Through the gathering dusk
 Reddy left the park and went towards
 his boarding house. As he passed the lighted waiting room. He caught sight of f>Pembroke and his sweetheart. Their faces we'll depicted happiness. For
 several minutes Reddy watched the girl.
 "Them purty eyes were niver mint
 to hould tearsr he said to himself, resuming his walk.

omcer smith Exonernted.

The case against Policeman Smith. charged with reckless shooting, was called in the police court this morning and at it's conclusion Mir Smith was ex- onerated by Mayor Atkins.
 It was claimed by some citizens that on Friday while MT. Smith was shoot ing at one of the escaping men who were supposed to have been trying to cash some forged checks. one of the shots passed through an old pegro wo- mans dress, and that the other shot had come very near killing little white girl.
 Chief of Police Walters and Officer Philen had ben detailed to look into tho shooting and see if there was anything in the charges. Both Officer Philen and Chief walters stated that after a thorough investigation they did not think that MT. Smith was guilty ot any reckless shooting as all OF the wifi nesses to the shooting that they had examined had said that Mir Smith had pointed his pistol towards the grouud when he had discharged it.
 Mayor Atkins then told MT. Smith that he would dismiss the case against him. but that in future ho hoped he and all of the members of the force would discont tinue their shooting at escaping criminals. for he said it would be bet ter for twenty criminals to escape the clutches of the law than that one in- nocent person be killed in an attempt to arrest one.
