A GOOD GAME.
Sumter High School Loses to Orange
burg I'm One Bad Inning.

1t all happened in one bad inning,
and the game played Friday be-
tween the Sumter High School and
the team from Orangeburg went to
the visitors by @ margin Of one run.
In every other inning except the IA
tai sixth, the home boys played rings
around their visiting rivals, and by all
laws. save those OF base ball chance.
the home boys should have scored the
victory.
In the opening inning, Dick led Off
with clean hit to tho outer garden,
stole second. and scored when DUNE
sent a beautiful two-bagger to left
field. The visitors scored one in the
third. when Walsh muffed an easy
chance. and the runner ON third trot-
ted across the plate.
Then came that terrible sixth. Two
bases on barls, three hits, and as many
critical errors sent four runners
across the pan, giving the boys from
the City by the Edisto a total Of i've
runs. and lead Of four.
The hopes Of the local enthusiasts
frightened wonderfully in the next in
ming. Brunson led OF with a clean
single. Marshall followed with a
stinger to second, which caused a mis-
cue resulting in Brunson's being on
third and Marshall on first. Marshall
then stole second. Dick followed with
one too hot to be handled through
short, and both runners scored. Dick
then forced the throw to third, which
went wild, and another tally went to
the credit Of the locals. Score Or
angeburg s; Sumter 4. Although the
locals had numerous chances to tie
things UP In the next two innings,
nothing was done by either team in
the way Of scoring, and thus the game
ended, as the score stood at the con-
clusion Of the seventh.

MIR. EAsON RESIGNS.
Goes to Oklahoma in Government Ser
vice.

From the Daily Item, April 1.
Mr., F.. G. Eason, teacher Of the boys
Of the 7th grade, left today for Okla
homa. Mr.. Eason received some time
ago notice of his appointment by the
government to a position in the en-
gipeering department. He notified the
school authorities. writing in the
meantime requesting that his work
should not begin until the first Of
June. In reply he was requested to
report for duty at once. He referred
the matter to the Board of Educa-
tion for its action and direction. The
board, seeing that satisfactory ar
rangements for a substitute could be
made and realizing that 1t would be
q hardship upon Mr.. Eason to deprive
him Of what promises to be a life
long position, accepted his resigna-
tion
Mr.. l.. c. Noise. who has taught for
several years in the schools, will take
Mr.. Easons place for the rest of the
term.
Mr.. Eason's departure from the
school was received with great regret
the boys Of his grade, especially being
very much grieved.

Btshopville. s. C.
Deor SIR:
In your paper of April a1nd. Inst. I
notice IN editorial headed. mo In
Ported Campaingers." In that edi-
torisl you sso this language.
I'VE see from the Sumter and CO.
lunbis papers that q crusade n be-
ins waSsd In behalf of Statewide pro-
hibition by two imported speaker from
Ohio and Georgia, Rev. P. A. Baker
and Mrs. Mary Harris Armour, who II
We are to judge Oy the reports of
their speeches. haranse the people on
tho Carrie Nation style by dealing In
abuse and ignoring the fundamental
arguments that might win votes to
the side Of prohibition. We have hon
est prohibitionists in Leo County and
In Bishopville whose hearts desire Is
to see the liquor traffic abolished, but
away with those campaigners, who
have no interest in our local affairs
no farther than the almighty dollar
goes
So far as Mrs. Armour Is concerned.
have nothing to say. She was
brought to South Carolina by the w.
c. T. u. have never heard her
speak. have never had any communica-
ton with her whatever. II she came
here and harangued the people, with
no farther interest in our affairs than
the almighty dollar goes" that mat
ter II between her and the w. c.. T.
r.. of South Carolina.
] am glad however, to hear from
representative ministers and laymen
throughout the State. that her
speeches were both acceptable and
wonderfully effective.
In regard to DR.. Baker. your words
are uncalled for. and unjust. And 80
far a. the almighty dollar" goes,
they are totally without foundation.
DR.. Baker L. the general superintend-
ent OF the Anti-Saloon League of
America. His work Is to look after
the Leagues In every State Of the
Union, speak and give direction to the
work. According to your dictum ne
must confine himself to the State of
Ohio. Suppose he were to do this.
what knowledge would he have Of the
work over which he Is general super
in this country?
AS to his having no farther interest
here than the almighty dollar" this
Is not only untrue, but
DR.. Baker Is q Meth
odist minister Of about thirty years
good standing in his Conference. He
came to South Carolina at a sacrifice
He win receive his actual expenses
not one cent more. 1t is time for such
appeals to prejudice to cease. This
movement Is not only Statewide, but
nation vide.
Men Of ability and national reputa-
SOh hhC otCWdIt, 1lcNH, WIiSHt dilu
others from our Southland have been
doing great work In the North for the
cause of prohibition. They are well
come there. except by those who are
too narrow in their views to appre-
ciate real man.
Even while DR.. Baker was in South
Carolina helping us. George Stewart.
of Tennessee. and Seaborn Wright. of
Georgia. was in Ohio, leading the fight
In the local option campaign going on
there at this time.
DIR. Baker spoke six times in our
State. twice in Spartanburg. twice in
Sumter. and twice in Orangeburg. I
have seen the papers from each OF
these cities. and have not found one
word Of criticism. Please be fair. In
your criticisms and true In your state
ments.

dent r. X. Marshall Of Post e OF Char
lesion; Mayor Rhett and President J.
Adger Smyth Of the Charleston Cham
Der OF Commerce and President L. n.

tai stories which the travelling men, ac-
customed to hearing and telling
stories. were able to appreciate fully.
Mr.. Pinckney asked the travellers to
mske the Commercial Club house their
headquarters whenever they come to
Charleston. The responses to the
greetings were made by President

In accordance with the custom of
the order, when President Pegues call
ed the convention to order. he an
nounced the names Of the deceased

ton standing with bowed heads while
the names were read.
Then were taken up a number of
business matters. largely of routine
character and Of little public interest
After dinner the visitors were taken
on trolley cars to the navy yard and
were then given q harbor trip. which
It Is needless to say proved most In
teresting.
