CORDELE TAKES
SECOND OF SERIES
PITCHER HINES OF THE VISITORS
PROVED TOO MUCH FOR THE
LocALS-WALKER A STAR.
Cordele 4; Brunswick /.

That was the score of the second
game of the series between Cordele
and the local teams, and different from
Mondays poorly played game, it was
well worth seeing.
There were tears in the eyes of
few of the faithful when they left the
ball park yesterday afternoon and the
assemblage of about $50 fans who
braved the elements resembled a fun
eral procession much more than the
patrons Of a game of baseball owing
to the fact that the Pilots. for the sec
ond time this season tasted the sting
OF defeat by the above score.
Inability to hit Hines, who was on
the rubber for the visitors, was the
, cause Of Brunswick losing yesterdays
game. He had everything and, cou-
pied with the brilliant work of the
men behind him, was inyincible, the
Pilots, when the smoke had rolled
away having but one hit to their
credit, which is going some" for an
amateur pitcher.

MORE ARMAMENT

Il was found. however, that there was

target scores made by the various re-

Mr.. ROOSEVELT AND THE
NEW YORK MAYORALTY.

The gossip that former President
Roosevelt may return in time to take
a hand in the New York mayoralty
fight this fall-possibly as the Repub-
lican undoubtedly is with
out foundation in serious fact or in the
intentions of Mr.. Roosevelt.
Not long before he retired from the
White House Mr.. Roosevelt, who was al
ways frank in admitting that he didn't
want his association with public af-
fairs to end in a respectable, but mon
.otonous retirement after he should leave
the White House, told a friend that
there were three positions which he
should like to hold. First he named the
post of Senator from New York; sec
ond, that Of governor of New York. and
third, that of member of the House of
Representatives.
The public imagination has been most
appealed to by the suggestion of Mr..
Roosevelt for the Senate But there is
reason to believe that he himself felt
that he might be more useful in the
House. He was deeply impressed with
the necessity for a reorganization of
the House method of doing business.
He believed that the House ought TO
be restored to that primacy, in our sys-
TEN, which the Constitution makers in
tended it to have, and which the COM
mons have in England He considered
that the elimination of the House from
practical participation in the serious
business of shaping legislation was a
most unfortunate development of the
present times; a development whose full
significance was not yet understood by
the country at large.
Mr. Roosevelt as Congressman
would certainly be an interesting figure.
It goes without saying that he would
try hard to be an organization man, and
that Notwithstanding all his efforts he
would be lined up much of the time
with the side of insurgency He would
make insurgency respectable and ex-
cusable He would not be a consist
ent and uniform insurgent, of course;
he couldn't do that without trading of
his individuality. But he would be ac-
tive. energetic, independent, and alto
gether useful. It may well be believed
that his service would be far more use
full in the lower than in the upper cham
Der. Not so much can be said for Mr..
Bryan, who would be more useful in
the upper chamber. where his party
needs some such vigorous and consistent
direction as his presence might give to

OLD TROUBLE BETWEEN THE
MOORS AND SPANIARDS.

The MOors and the Spaniards have
been lighting each other of and on for
twelve centuries, and their quarrel,
politically considered, is about the
oldest one on record. Toward the
close of the eighth century, when
Hakam, son Of Abderrahman, was ruler
of all he surveyed, Cordova, the capital
Of the western caIiphate, became the
finest city vest of Rome. Alfonso I,
King of Asturias. famous progenitor of
the reigning Spanish monarch, was then
one of the most successful opponents of
the Moors Now, after the passing Of
more than LOO years. we find his
namesake and descendant carrying on
the old strife.
Centuries were occupied in destroy
ing the remains OF Moorish power in
Spain; but this work was political. As
regards the arts and the sciences, the
Spaniards adopted much that the
Moors had brought with them. and in
Seville the Spanish court was similar
in character TO what might then be
seen in Bsgdad. The AIoors resisted
expulsion vigorously until the battle of
Lepanto. Ia 1871, but the loss Of their
Spanish possessions left them just as
pugnacious as before. Aigeciras, where
the celebrated conference on Morocco
was held "a few years ago. was once one
OF their stronghold5 The Berbors, who
were great fights when the Moorish
wave was rolling over Spain. are now
said 20 be willing to work for a few
cents a day. and instead OF Moorish
citadels in Spain there are Spanish
garri-ons IN Morocco.
The present sultan MuIai Hafd IS
apparently a victim OF the same spirit
Of rebellion that he reused a few years
AGO when his brother Abdul Aziz, was
ON the throne.
