GREENWOOD ADDS
ANOTHER SERIES.
starkvllie Proves to be an Easy Vic
tim for the Champions.

The fast bunch OF youngsters from
Starkyille blew into the city last Mon
day from Grenada. Among their ranks
wore Lucas and Whitten, of the A X NJ
team. Wiley Critz, who covered short
for Greenwood during the first Of the
season. played that position in neat
style fos Starkville.
Greenwood was strengthened by
Flint, Foote, Mitchell, Jones and Leigh
ton, and with this quintette the Locals
were sure OF victory.
The first game was the best Of tho
series. Whitten twirled good game
for Starkville and had good support,
but we were too strong, winning by the
score OF 4 to .. The second game was a
hurriedup affair, 1t having ralned that
day. The game was at first called of
but on finding that the park was not
muddy. q five-inning lime was dealt the
Visitors, 10 |. The last game was
slow and uninteresting, save the heavy
hitting Of tho Locals, Starkvlle using
three pitchers.
Notes OF the First Game,
This game was cut and dvied ~ Rob
ert Mitchell was on duty. He Is better
than the best.
Isom Jones was always in the game,
fielding, hitting and running in grand
style.
Flint cinched the game in the third
with his homer.
Foote Ia the best man that ever COW
cred the initial bag at Stems Park this
season.
Whitten, Lucas and Critz carried of
the honors for Starkville.
Notes Of the Second Game.
The game did not start until six
o'clock. A very small crowd was out.
Lucas and Whitten again starred for
Starkville.
Hendricks, the "iron wonder, from
Lexington, attempted to twirl for the
visitors.
lsom Jones had lots OF fun with the
young ones.
Notes OF the Third Game.
Hendricks again thought he was a
pitcher but two two-baggers and one
homer made seat on the bench for him
Critz offered up sacrifice for two in
nings; then Runt Lucas finished the
game.
Foote played his usual star game un-
til he was forced to retire, his wrist be-
ing sprained by fast throw of bunt
handled by Mitchell.
Mitchell had Starkyille going his
way.
Jones, Willett, Foote, Flint and San
ders led in batting.
The final score was 7 to 5.

GREENWOOD WINS
ANOTHER SERIES.
The fast Set of Leland Ball-Tossers
Were Handed Two Defeats,

On last Tuesday, Wednesday ant
Thursday our Locals were attacked b,
the fast Leland team who have beef
dealing defeats to Cleveland, Green
vile, Shaw, and other strong team
arrayed against our boys were Charli,
Hightower, Trotter, Magruder, Nc
Gehee, King, Jones, Stapleton, Meri
wether Taylor, and othes famous toss
ers from collegiate circles.
Greenwood was strengthened mate
rally by the work of Isom Jones, Johr
Myers, Lamb, and Anderson Foote
which put the two teams on even foot
ing.
O'Hare held the indicator during the
series and gave general satisfaction.
The attendance to these games was
small and not up the average.
The first game was won by the Locals
to 5, who, in the ninth inning with
Leland in the lead with margin OF
four runs, tapped McGehee for six safe
bingles netting five runs. Crawford
pitched good steady game for Green
wood.
Greenwood won the second by the
score to 0, with John Myers teething
1t with King, the crack Jefferson Col
lege twirler.
sThe last game, an uninteresting one
went to Leland by the score Of IL to 4
NOTES OF FIRST GAME.
McGehee had things his way until the
ninth, when the whole team weakened
and he allowed six hits.
Crawford pitched his usual steady
game, being effective at critical points,
always using his head.
Meriwether Taylor, who was first
catcher on the University of Mississip-
pi, caught for the visitors, and his many
friends here were greatly pleased.
Taylor is good pinch hitter and is
always awake during the game.
Anderson Foote covered first for the
Locals in grand style and was greatly
in evidence with his "bg stick"
NOTES OF SECOND GAME.
This was one of the prettiest games
of the season. score to 0.
John Myers pitched his usual fine
game, and made good at the bat. He
had the visitors at his mercy. Myers
is general utility man, effective on
any position in the game. He covered
short for the Locals the first game.
King, the champion pitcher of the
Jefferson Military College, pitched a
good game for Leland; showed an
abundance of speed and variety Of
curves, but lacked perfect control.
NOTES or THIRD GAME.
McGehee succeeded in winning the
last game for Leland. The game was
slow and without any interest.
The Locals lineup was weakened by
the absence of Myers, Foote and others.
Isom Jones twirled for Greenwood
but owing to the muddy condition Of
the field, was not near at his best.
Leland left the next day for Lexing.
ton and handed that little city two
two stinging defeats.
GREENWOOD VS.. INDIANS.
On last Friday the Cherokee Indians
blew into the city from Winona, and
handed us small lemon. These red.
skins are fast in base-running and
fielding and seem to be playing in a
great streak of luck. "Sitting Bull and
Rain-in-the-Face" did the battery stunt
for the Indians, while Crawford and
Wells worked for the Locals. The night
game was very slow, and the attendance
was very small. The Indians left the
following morning for Itta Bena where
they played two games Saturday after
noon and Saturday night.

returned to the superior court an ap-
peal or application for relief In behalf
of Mrs. Martha w. II. Wayland Of

ment regarding the extension the bu-
reau OF compensation assessed dam
ages in favor Of Mrs. Wayland

much too low and she asks the courts
10 raise II to $4,000
1t Is alleged in the appeal that the

destroy the privacy Of the Wayland
grounds and damage the remaining
property to the extent of 100000.

taken FOR the extension Is worth SIS
900. that It would be necessary Il

ing In connection with the extension
would cost Mrs Wayland $4,000
II is further alleged that the orde
passed by the board Of aldermen Is
