Base Ball
Oft Their Stride.

The Pioneers were badly off their
stride last Tuesday when they met Paris
on the home lot and were defeated by
the score of 10 to 2. Knox started in to
pitch for Richmond but he wasn't in
form and retired from the scene Of action
at the beginning of the third inning.
Hedges succeeded him, put the Bourbon
ties had already developed batting
streak and they couldn't be stopped.
The Pioneers also played loosely in the
field. Jimmy Tilford made his first
appearance with the team at third base
but had only two chances, both of which
he handled in good style. He failed to
to get hit in three attempts. We pre-
dict, however, that he will improve in
this respect as soon as he becomes ac-
customed to the pitchers. The score

A Success.

The play, Ethiopia, given at the opera
house last Thursday night for the bene-
fit of the p A.C. Infirmary was success
from every point of view The crowd
was large and appreciative and enjoyed
every minute of the two hours enter
tainment. From the time that Mrs.
Willard, as 'Mama Liza" and Mr..
Parker, as Pete, stepped on the stage
until the curtain was rung down on
the last scene, the large audience was
kept busy enjoying hearty laughs, listen
ing TO beautiful songs and watching
pretty drills. OF course the stars of the
play were Mr.. Parker and Mrs. Willard.
They are both fine in their respective
roles and were greeted time after time
with rounds of applause. The other
members of the play were local talent
and all did their parts well, when one
takes into consideration that they had
only one week in which to get them up.
Lack Of space prevents rs from mention
ing each member of the cast, but we
can't refrain from saying that Mr.. A. c.
Seaman, Miss Duncan Foster, Miss
Marian holland and Mr.. Hugh Cassiday
played almost like professionals. Sup
bonnet Sue" by Mr. Seaman and Miss
Foster was beautiful in the extreme.
while the Lantern Drill by ten young
ladies' Tell, Ne Pretty Ladies, the
"Goody-Goody Girls, the willie
Browns, the "Seven ages Of cuddling''
and the minstrel men were all we'll re-
ceiyed. One of the hits of the evening
was the "Yama Yama Man" by the
picSanninies. Master Melvin Myers,
as the leader, was especially fine, play
ing his part almost 70 perfection. Taken
rs whole il was one OF the best per
70 mances ever given here by local
talent. and those who were fortunate
enough to see it have nothing but words

Booker Washington's Story.

Booker L. Washington is
responsible for the story of a
negro man who was anxious
to catch a certain train and
had only a few minutes in
which to reach the station.
He hailed the first cab he saw.
The driver, a white man, told
him it was not his custom to
carry negroes in his vehicle.
The colored man, not in the
least disturbed, at once repli-
ed: "That's all right; you
get in the carriage and I'll
take the front seat and drive
YOU This was done, and in
a few minutes they reached
the depot in time to catch the
train. The negro man handed
the white man his fare and de-
parted. Both were satisfied
and she selet line rus pfsssrv'

whitewashed Hustlers.

The Pioneers went to Winchester last
Wednesday, and as it is the time OF
ear for white-washing, they proceeded
to give the Hustlers lovely coat. The
score was 6 to 0. Knox, who was taken
out the day before, went in to pitch and
he stood the hard hitting Hustlers on
their heads. They only got four hits,
and they were SO badly scattered that
there was never any danger of score
being the result. On the other hand
our boys jumped on Weakly early in the
game and he was led off the field by
Daddy Horn in the third inning and
Robinson took his place. The Pioneers
were not to be denied, however, and
they kept up their hitting, winning in a
walk. Whitaker and Sandman were
the heavy hitters for Richmond, each
getting three hits.
The score:

Pitchers Battle.

Richmond was at Winchester Friday
for game and after nine innings of hard
play they were returned winners by the
score Of 2tol. 1t was strictly pitchers
battle between Wills and Toney. Al
though Toney pitched splendid game,
Wills was better and won well deserved
victory. The Pioneers got three hits off
of Toney, two of them being by Tilford,
who by the way played a star game at
third base, scored one of Richmond
runs and made the hit that sent the
other one across. The best the Hustlers
could do was to get two hits off Of Willis.
He had splendid control and fine
curve that kept the Hustlers guessing.

Itwas one Of the most bitterly fought
