ASK BOARD FOR
ATHLETIC FIELD

Residents of South Wilmington have
petitioned the Park Commissioners to
obtain sufficient ground adjacent to
Eden Park in order that an athletic
field may be established. The subject
is now under consideration by mem
bers Of that body and may be acted
on at the next meeting.
Should the ground be obtained it is
proposed to lay out a field where base
ball and athletic sports may be held,
both of which will be free for the use
of residents in that section of the city.
At present there is no public place set
aside in South Wilmington where the
small as well as the large boys can
engage in sports, although there are
a number amateur athletes 'over Third
street bridge" who are seeing the lots,
once used for baseball, gradually be-
ing built upon. Nor is It proposed to
confne the ground, IL it is obtained.
solely to the use of athletics, as it is
proposed to provide it with tennis and
croquet courts in addition to a ball
diamond.
Although Eden Park has received no
special attention from the Park Com
mission during the past year. accord
ing 20 the report of the superintendent,
there is no prettier spot in the city dur
ing the summer months and it is be-
lieved that If an athletic field could be
established in its vicinity it would
prove beneficial not only to the resi-
dents of South Wilmington but to the
residents Of the city in general.

Friday morning Mr.. w. l.. Hill.

ley, negro hackman. Kelley
claimed that he had bought the cot
ton from another negro, viii Garrett.

and Garrett were bound over to the

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL.
Health Is Worth Saving, and Some
Dawson People Know How
to Save 1t.

Many Dawson people take their
lives in their hands by neglecting
the kidneys when they know these
organs need help. Sick kidneys are
responsible for a vast amount of
suffering and i'll health, but there is
no need to suffer nor to remain in
danger when all diseases and aches
and pains due to weak kidneys can
be quickly and permanently cured
by the use of Doan's Kidney Pills.
Here is a Dawson citizens recon-
mendation:
Mrs. Annie Potts, Nelson avenue,
Dawson, Ca, says: Il have been
using DOans Kidney Pills only a
short time, but 1 can say that they
have already given me more relief
from kidney toruble than anything
I have ever tried. Foreseveral years
this complaint has bothered me,
causing severe pains in the small Of
my back. Recently I decided to try
Doan's Kidney Pills, and sent to the
Peoples Drug Store for them. AS
before stated, they have greatly ben
Gifted me, and l willingly recon-
mend them to other sufferers.

A BIG FIRE AT A SAW MILL
Sale-Davis Company Have $780,
0O0 Loss at Their Plant
in Florida

The saw mill of the Sale-Davis Co.,
at Southport, Fla, an enterprise that
is largely owned by Dawson citizens,
was destroyed by fire Wednesday
night.
Only the saw mill part Of the COM
pany's extensive interests was burned,
the planning mill, commissary and 9TH
er property being saved.
Mr.. w. H. Davis, who has been in
Florida the past year actively con-
nected with the company's business,
writes to Mr.. A j. Baldwin that there
was $4,000 insurance, and that the
loss exceeds this amount by about
100000.
Mr.. Baldwin is of the opinion that
the fire was caused by hot box in
some of the machinery.
