BASEBALL BETWEEN Laurel
and HATTIESBURG, CLOSE

Hattiesburg and Laurel had a merry
go-round ball game on the local dia-
mond yesterday afternoon, and a good
figure on both sides, yet the game
was decidedly interesting at times and
called for the best efforts of some of
the rooters.
At first it looked like Laurel was an
easy mark for the Hattiesburg boys,
but the thing soon changed up and
Laurel began to make connection with
Carter's balls. Hattiesburg had very
little trouble in locating the curves of
Webb's balls and but. for the errors
made, the game would have resulted in
an easy victory for Hattiesburg, for
one or two innings toward the last
Hattiesburg had one the best, but in
the first half of the ninth, Laurel
brought in two runs which placed then
one ahead. In the last half of the
ninth Hattiesburg failed to score, and
this gave the game to Laurel by 9 to s
The following box score is the bes
that could be obtained:

the highest authority on American
journalism, has arrived at the startling
conclusion that the popularity of the
Hearst newspapers does not lie in the
screaming headlines and in the lurid
stories beneath them, but in the re-
markable editorials written by Arthur
Brisbane. Be that as it may, Arthur
Brisbane, the responsible editor of ten
newspapers and ten magazines is a
most remarkable man-doubtless well
worth the $4,000 a year which Mr..
Hearst is paying him for his work.

Quite number of errors were made
on both sides, but after the start the
teams kept so closely together that
the interest was sustained until the
game was finished.
A sensational left hand catch was
made at first by Foote at first, who
reached up, pulled high drive down
with his left hand, dropped the ball
and recaught it before 1t reached the

Birthday of the Repubiic.

1t has been 1872 years since the orig
inal states formed the first fedora
ton and promulgated that immortal
document-the Declaration of indie
pendenee.
Despite the fact that the seeds of
American liberty were first sown on
Southern rsoil, and that Southern
statesmen were responsible for the
birth of this, the greatest Republic
on the face of the earth, the people
of the South have not in recent years
entered into the celebration of the
Glorious Fourth with enthusiasm.
The cause of this seeming indiffer-
ence is we'll known to us all The war
between the States did not rob the
South of it's patriotism, but the re-
construction period-when the Amer
lean flag become the symbol of oppres-
sion, was the mask for crime.
But the North has long since seen
its errors. The good people of that
section have made partial amends for
the agregious wrongs perpetrated in
the name of Liberty-and the eternal
stretch of Time is healing the wounds
and scars of that unfortunate con
fiict.
Proud, but patriotic, the South has
long since renewed its allegiance tc
the flag which it created, and the shall
low mind of the revalcitrant North
erner has been nodded to a higher re
gard for the South's part in the war
On more than one OCCASION tn,
sons of the South have proven the sin
certify of their protested devotion t.
this reunited country, and the presi
dent of the United States has recent
ly shown his regard for a valiant Con
federate soldier by appointing him Sec
Rotary of War.
1t is then fitting that the Soutl
should again resume the beautiful Gus
tom of paying fitting tribute to tn,
American flag at each recurrence o
the anniversary of the Republic, an,
the people of Hattiesburg should en-
ter heartily into the spirit of the day

The Highest of All.

Now they're going to build a sixty
two story skyscraper in New York.
"They" are the managers of a great
life insurance company
The proposed structure is to be the
highest in the world.
If this sort of thing keeps up, what
will be the need of airships? Elevators
will do the work. They will keep GO
ing and going until the passenger is
turned loose upon Mars or any other
planet he chooses. He may get round
trip elevator tickets, with berths for
the night ride upwards. Pullman SER
vice and Pullman porters will be on
tap. Instead of leaving every half
minute the elevators will run accord
ing to time table,
What's the use? That's the pressing
question. What's the use of all this
height in buildings? OF course, the
only place in the world probably where
there is a use is in New York. Here real
estate is so scarce, the island of Man
haitian being so very small and crowd
ed that it can be multiplied in area
only by going up in the air. Every
story of a skyscroper is the addition
practically of that much real estate
area to the city. Build sixty-two stories
and you will have multiplied the area
sixty-two times. You will get into
one building floor space that would re
uuire twenty blocks of two-story struc
lures to duplicate. Therefore. in New
York there probably is a sort of use.
Nevertheless, except as an adver
tisement, it is hard to discern the prac
teal advantage to an insurance com
pany of such a structural shaft. Wha
business man cares for an office oil
the sixtieth floor? Think of the tim'
lost in elevator trips!

ANSONIA CHURCH BURNED
St. Peter and St. Paurs Almost Totally Destroyed-Loss About $7.000.
 Special fo the Journal -Couricr.)

Ansonia. March 1s.-St. Peter and st. Paul's church, the Greek Catholic edi- flee. on May street. was almost totally destroyed, by fire this afternoon and damaged caused to the extent of ss,ooO to s7.o00. The fire was discover cd about 1 o'clock, flames being seer coming out of the roof. The fire alarm was quickly rung in and the firemen responded immediately.
 About all the firemen could do was to protect the nearby buildings as well as possible from the flying cinders that were swept down upon them, the wa ter pressure was SO poor the stream from the three lengths of hose that were strung could not reach the tower
 The building was wooden affair and with a stiff breeze blowing the roof was soon a mass of flames. About 2 o'clock the minaret at the center fell in and was followed shortly after by the bell tower. The building continued to burn until nothing was left but the four walls.
 The origin of the fire is not known but Rev. stephen Makal, pastor of the church. thinks it may have been caus- ed by the sacristy lamp. The church was built ten years ago and policies amounting to over 5000 are carried which will make the loss comparatively small.
