The strong baseball club from Sena-
tobia PLAYED in this city Monday. Tues

SCOTS, and twice they went down in de-
feat before the champions.
The game Monday was farce
after the fourth inning, Rose

Wynn caught. Few errors were made
by the local club in this game and every
body hit the ball.
Tuesday the Senatobin club won by a
score OF to S. They got in three new
players which strengthened the team
very much, but Rosedale would have
won even then but for. a streak of hard
luck. Our team was badly crippled
only four men playing their regular po-
sitions. Sillers and Wynn were the
Rosedale battery, and only few hits
were made off Of "Red, the errors be-
hind him being responsible for the de-
feat.

THE STATES REPUTATION
AT STAKE.

Governor of Mississippi would be
a grave reflection upon the intel
Eligence OF the State. On the other
hand sweeping majority for him
would in an even greater de.
gree be an honor and credit to the
people who elect him. Indications
point to such triumph of good
sense and public spirit, and for the
sake of Mississippi's standing
abroad it is earnestly to be hoped
that it may crown the campaign.
1t cannot be denied that Mississip-
pi, once almost preemminent
among Southern States for the
ability. influence and standing of
her public men, has reached NOR
,tifyiug low ebb in national estima-
ton. This reputation is unfortu-
nately not confined to Mississippi.
OF course there are men in public
life in the South and among its
Representatives in Congress who
stand with the best and highest,
whose personality and ability will
compare favorably with that of
the great ones gone" but the
disposition of the South in later
years has been to support and en-
courage the demagoge, the fanatic,
the cheap man-the man who, like
the Calhoun county farmers OK,
can beller louder and pull less than
any other in the team. Mississip-
pi wants not only a Governor who
could give it a sound business ad-
ministration, but one who will
make it respected throughout the
No person could hesi-
tate to acknowledge that, among
the candidates now offering, Mr..
Scott is pre-eminently the one who
could accomplish this. Already,
though his writings, his speeches,
his professional success, his con-
nection with the various projects,
for Mississippi river improve
ments, and his wide acquaintance
with business men and government
officials he is known and respected
all over the nation. while he has
never held any conspicuous politi-
cal position, he is nevertheless one
of the South S most prominent men.
The mere fact that Mississippi had
such 2 man for Governor would
safely take it out of Texas-Arkan-
sas- Tennessee-S South Carolina class
and secure it from the danger of
discredit and contempt which has
been so freely poured upon those
States because OF certain Political
leaders and representatives.

THAW IS AT WORK
PRISONER Nor DnCIDED ON CoUN-
 SEL FOR TRIAL.
He is Busily Engaged in Preparing His Defense, But Has Formed Friendship With an
 Italian.

New York, June Notwithstanding the reports that Harry K. Thaw, now in the Tombs awaiting his second trial for the killing of Stanford White, has engaged a new director general for his legal forces, 1t was learned authorita- lively today that he has reached no decision with his lawyers as to who will direct his defense when he Is again called to the bar.
 Within his cell Thaw works unceas- ingly on the evidence adduced at his trial. preparing a defense which he will submit to his counsel for their con- sideration. The routine of his prison life does not seem to dampen his spir- it's. His only companion in the prison is Raefele Cascone. an Italian. await ing his second trial for staying two of his fellow countrymen. Thaw asso- ciates with none of the other prison CTS except Cascone. and every day dur ing the exercising hours this strangely entrusted pair walk the corridors in quiet conversation. The Italian has told Thaw of his thirty-two months confinement in the death house" in Sing Sing until the Court of Appeals granted him new trial.
 Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw and Mrs. William Thaw call at the Tombs ev- unnoticed and even the denizens of the district fall to stare at the Thaws when they alight in front of the prison.
 Harry Thaw follows strictly the rules and routine of the Tonabs and the jaiIers say he is a model prisoner. He does not eat the prison fare. Thaw shows no physical III effects from his years confinement though his face has the usual prison pallor.

SCANDAL ON TAPES
LAND FRAUDS WILL BE DEvEL-
 OPTED BY GOVERNMENT.
An Agent At Work In Two Territories VIII File Suits And Promises Some Sensational Dis-
 closures.

Muskogee, I. T., June 9.-A new scandal is on tapis and will develop next week. 1t is said. when suits charg- ing land frauds will be filed here by an agent of the interior department against many persons prominent in the political life of the two territories.
 W. L. Sturtevant of St. Louis, who has been appointed special town site attorney by Secretary Garfield to act in connection with M. l.. Mott, na- tional attorney for the Creek nation, arrived here last night and gave out statement that suits would be filed immediately on the part of the federal government acting for the Creek na- ton charging conspiracy to defraud against a score or more persons prom inent in Mnskogee. Tulsa and Wagoner and also against two national banks.
 MT. Staurtevant is quoted as saying limit, forcing the holders of the prop erty alleged to have been fraudulently acquired to transfer 1t back to the Creek nation or pay to the Creek na- ton the present cash value of the lots. The arrival of MT Sturtevant and his declared statement of prosecution has caused a sensation.
 The general charge that will be made is that the defendants had lots scheduled to dummies; that Is. they had lots scheduled to other persons and the defendants paid the appraised government valuation and then had lots deeded back to them by the dum- mics. without consideration. The lots scheduled in this way cost those who sold them only fifty per cent of the regular appraisement and the fraud comes in the practice of thus schedul- ing lots in excess of what the law al- lowed the defendants to hold.
