Sunday Baseball Question.

At a meeting Of the judiciary
committee of the city council tonight
the Sunday baseball proposition at
Skenes park will be taken up. Mr.
Skene has been able to rent his park
for four years to Sunday baseball and
he wishes to continue doing so. Last
Sunday the police interfered and
would not stand for it. The blow has
almost broken up the city league and
it is the fond hopes of several who
have a financial interest and who
have been taking pains in boosting
the city league that the rule be sus-
pended-until Christmas at least It
is hardly thought that the committee
will allow the Sunday baseball To

are guarding this exit very closely

Captain A. Belvcher, who is in
charge of the Salvation Army work in
Hattiesburg, has requested The News
to call the publics attention to the
fact that their annual Harvest Festi-
val begins SEPTEMBER 18th and lasts
three days, during which time it is
hoped to raise at least one hundred

The annual Harvest Festival is a
period of time set aside by the Off
GERS of the Army for the purpose of
eXerting an especial effort to secure
funds for the purpose Of carrying on
the work, and the. public is respect
fully invited to contribute as liberal
ly as possible to the worthy cause.

PLANT IS CREDIT
TO HATTIESDURG

A credit to Hattiesburg and an en-
terprise worth of support of every
loyal citizen is the Martin Printing
Company. There are, perhaps, one or
two larger printing shops in Missis-
sippi, but none that can handle a
wider range of work than this, and
none which more persistently make
quality paramount.
Samples of the binding, ruling and
printing turned out by this company
were shown a representative of the
News today, and consisted of a large
civil docket and large criminal docket
for Judge Bottoms court The books

ness and neatness of impress, nor from
those of beauty and strength of bind
ing could not have been improved

Prospective Candidates.

1t is confidently believed that Dr.
Emmett Dill will be candidate for
the office, and considering the splen.
did race made by that gentleman in
the last municipal contest his chances
for success appear to be quite favor
able.
While Captain Rich has not yet in.
timated what he would do, it is said
that many Of his intimate friends are
exerting every effort to get the big
politician into the mayoralty contest
again, and should he consent to run
for the office, others will necessarily
have to sit up and take notice, for
the captain is known to all as a hard
campaigner.
Considering the splendid race made
by Mr.. Jackson in the last campaign.
if he should again decide to become a
candidate for the office, he will I'M
doubtedly be formidable opponent
ard the man who beats him will have
to stay up late nights and work early
in the morning.

Is Universally Popular.

Mr.. Hughes has for six years been
connected with the Edwards House
at Jackson, and though a comparative
stranger to Hattiesburg, is we'll known
and universally popular among the
travelling men who come this way. He
is an experienced and capable hotel
man, having learned in the strict
school of experience all it's intricacies.
He is a most approachable, agreeable
and accommodating gentleman, and
will add to the popularity of this al
ready popular hostelry. Mr.. Hughes,
while he will leave nothing undOne to
please the travelling public, will cater
more than has heretofore been done
to the local trade, and will soon have
some interesting announcements to
make along this line. He wants Hat
tiesburg people to remember that the
Hotel Hattiesburg is their hotel, for
their use, convenience and patronage.
He wants the ladies and gentlemen
of this city to feel free to use its par
lors, it's corriors and its lobby. He
wants to make it the social centre as
well as the business center of the
city. He wants to make it public
convenience to this people and he
intends to make the service so at
tractive and the rates so reasonable
that the local trade will be largely
built up.
