cutt, the legal advisor to Governor
Hughes, committed suicide on the

Albany last night for New York. The

deck. On the floor beside it lay a re-
volver and near it partially burned

continued overwork, resulting in in
somnia, is the probable cause of Huff

Perry, how could you?
Cheer up cheer up-better times COM
ing.
Gulfport got back at Mobile yester-
day and nosed them out.
That was a neat double Nye made
from center field in the sixth.
Pelicans jump to fourth place this
morning, Little Rock dropping to fifth.
Little damp yesterday-only one game
and it declined to rain in New Or
leans.
Last game in New Orleans today,
them?
Malarky not only pitched a great
game, but his hitting would have won
it but for errors.
Montgomery is now in the cellar good
and proper, rain putting Birmingham
in seventh place yesterday.
There should have been a run in that
eighth inning. Ball was on second
when Baxter hit safe, Ball only reach
ing third.
Macon by defeating Charleston in the
South Atlantic Yesterday jumped to
second place, Charleston falling into
third place
Seahaugh gets better every day. He
is throwing to bases in great shape
now and hitting the ball when hits
mean something.
Detroit is tied for second place in the
American League, while Cleveland
jumps 10 third place, pushing the Ath-
| letics down to fourth.
Only nine more games on this west
ern trip, and they will more than
break even by the time they get back
to Capitol Heights on the oath.
They are bound to break this way
sometimes. The fans here have every
confidence in Malarky's ball team. and
the tide will turn the other way before
long.
Looked like pretty poor base run
