RAIN RAINl-Most of the last week
the weather has been cloudy, drizzly,
and rainy. If the manager of the wealth
er had given us this amount of rain two
months ago, he would have satisfied the
people, and saved his own reputation.

ITEMS FROM The PILOT
OF FIFTY YEARS AGO,

ABOUT A CENTURY AGO, an English
man named James Hawney, on his re-
turn from travels in the East appeared
in the streets of London, on rainy day,
with queer notion of an umbrella. 1t
was the first seen in England, probably
in Europe and aroused such Indignation
that he was soon surrounded by furi-
ous mob, who peited him with mud for
daring to screen his head and person
from the rain. The incident drew at
tention to the new machine, which soon
came into universal favor

LUMBER AND SIIINGLE TRADE. Not
withstanding the present depressed state
of this trade, shingles aud lumber are
constantly coming in, and our docks are
now well covered with these articles of
trade. We see today three vessels in
our River, ready to load for market.

several days. His condition was not
good, and to all appearances the team
was not according him the best sup

the fielders Two bases on balls, one
hit, batter hit, a passed ball, a stOl-
en- base, three errors and a sacrifice

second inning. which was all they
could get during the game.
After the second inning Windham
was in the box for Ocala, having ex-
changed positions with Jones. Myers
succeeded Hudson behind the bat, be-
ing Windhams regular catcher.

ceased. Trey were blanked to the
end of the game.
Gainesville remained two runs in
the lead until the sixth inning. For
Ocala, Jones hit to Graham, who
muffed. Jones attempted to steal Sec

Pounds singled to left and stole sec
ond, was sacrificed to third by B. Don

went TO second on a passed ball, and
scored wher Spottswood dropped Bar

tired the side, short to first. The
score had been tied, and the OcaIa
rooters had lOosened up. Many real
lied that they had no baseball voice

day before
No further runs were made until
the ninth inning. After Gainesville
had been retired promptly, Collins,

Myers singled To right, was sacrificed
to second by Windham, took third on
a passed ball, and scored the winning
run On Roy Galloway's hit over sec

made vain attempts to reach, and the
game was won. Myers and Galloway
had free rides on the shoulders OF the
enthusiasts.

The same can be said of Jones, for

locals are willing to tie to Windham

these TWO pitchers.

From Fridays Daily:
The most important game of base
ball on the local schedule was pulled

neither team scored. Gainesville
brought her usual loyal supporters
and a slightly strengthened team. Es-
Inmates of the crowd present place
the number between twelve and fif-
teen hundred. The grand stand was
packed to overfiowing, and the crowd
was lined down both foul lines to the
right and left field fences, with in
Vulnerable automobiles and carriages
spread around the field next to the
fence There was lots of noise in
the crowd, coming from the Tooters
of both teams.
The train was a little late, AMI the
Gainesville boys a little slow in get
ting out to the grounds. The game
was called soon after four o'clock.
The overhanging clouds, threatening
rain, made i very dark, and the game
was called at the end of the seventh
inning, neither side having made a
score.
The worl- of the pitchers was fine
each allowing three hits, and Wind

Wilson eight Hendrix RIade a ,kair'

OF the four games played this sea

Walker will occupy the center of The
