Louden and Kelly Hit Pill Hard
and Break Up the
Game.
BALTIMORE, Md, June IL.

A T noon the prospects of the Tigers
IA getting in a double-header were
not very bright. The ain con
tinued all night and there were occa-
sional sprinkles this morning. It's
hard luck for the Tigers, who are com
ing fast with the stick In the last
three battles they knocked out forty
hits, that included a homer, a couple
of triples and several two-sackers and
punches of singles. The game yester-
day was won by clean hitting. Artie
Mueller, the Tigers pitcher, despite the
fact that the weather man was against
him, pitched a pretty game. once
more the Bengals are the leaders and
they are full of fight.
Bobby Holmes is slated to pitch one
of the games tomorrow. The local
baseball scribes roasted Umpire FIN
neran for allowing yesterdays game to
drag. 1t was Manager Dunn's fault
for not placing a sufficient number OF
balls In the valise. Just like a bush

A STORY comes out of Pittsnurs
~ that John Miller n Hans Wag-
49, ner had been thrashed by F1rst

4 STORY comes out OF Plutspurs
"a that John Miller and Hans Wag-
go ner had peer thrashed by First
Baseman Flynn, of h Pirates,
the former kept nagging him. In
trouble started at the selection of Flynn
over Bud Sharpe. The story goes that
Miller and Wagner wanted Sharpe, n
thew limited that Clarke's society con-
nections with Flynn were responsible
for the choice. If the story a some
other foundation tina that Flynn n
Clarke belonged to the same society we
might believe the story. The strange
part of It all is that Miller is a mem
her of the same society us Flynn n
Clarke. There may be some other rea-
son but we think the man who wrote
the story didn't know of the social
connections of Miller.

To the Sporting Editor of the Evening Star:
1t seems to the writer that some of
the teams in the Manufacturers
League are taking unfair advantage OF
other teams in the same league by OBJ
tanning in some n the services OF
crack players. Take for instance the
game between the Straus aggregation
and the Public Service Corporation
baseball team last Saturday at the
Wright street grounds. The Straus
team had in their lineup the following
well-known players: Monroe, Lewis,
Barrett and Winters. all of whom play
or did play with City League teams,
and it seems strange that all these
players just happen to be employed by
the Straus company regularly. The
writer can truthfully say that every
player on the Public Service team is
a regular employee, and each n works
the full number of hours each day. II
this condition is allowed to exist the
writer can predict the withdrawal from
the league of some of the teams, as he
has observed the dissatisfaction among
the players regarding this question.
FROM AN INTERESTED FAN.
If the players are not bona fide en-
ployees the league won't gain by 1t,
but If they are employees in all the
word implies there should be no kick
unless there is a rule barring semi-pro'
fessional leaguers.-Ed.

Jackson, Miss, April 26.-The prin.
cipal railway lines operating in Mis-
sissippi are preparing to spend about
$150,000 in collecting an exhibit of the
resources and industries of the state
for the Ohio Valley Exposition to be
held at Cincinnati
Each of the principal trunk lines has
set aside good-sized sum to be used
in collecting an exhibit of the resourc
es and industries along it's line, and
the display promises to be even more
elaborate and comprehensive than
that made by the state at the worlds
fair in st. Louis.
In the truck farming districts agents
of the several roads are now engaged
in selecting choice products to be pre-.
served for the display at Cincinnati
The railroads, it is stated, will make
their displays very comprehensive, in
cluding the agricultural horticultural,
live stock, manufacturing and various
other industries, especial attention be-
ing paid to diversified farming.
The railroads have also promised
cooperation in the statewide immigra-
tion movement, and will have repre-
sentatives present at the convention to
be held in Jackson in June, also CIV
ing low rates to delegates to that gath
ering. Governor Noel will issue the
formal call for the convention this
week, and an effort will be made to
bring at least thousand delegates
to Jackson.

cow OFFICER
MAKES A RAID
Gathered in Some Eighteen Bovines
for the City Pound Yesterday At
ternoon and This Morning.

The most magnificent looking bunch
of live stock which has been seen to-
gether in Hattiesburg for months is
now on exhibition at the city pound,
a total of eighteen valuable bovines
having been gathered in by Officer
Willis Moore since noon yesterday.
These are nearly all aristocratic
COWS; that is, they are the very best
and in fine condition, and doubtless
very valuable. They belong to citizens
who are proud of them. as evidenced
by the sickness and general fine con-
dition. They belong to politicians, bust
ness men and preachers, it is said, and
the city is not expected to have the
pleasure of entertaining them for any
considerable length of time; indeed, a
few of them have already been re-
deemed. but the city will realize a
neat little bunch of money by the
transaction, and that is what Mr.,
Moore is paid for.

GFFICES ARE NOW
WORTH TRYING FOR
Officers Elected At The Coming Elec-
tion Will Serve Four Years Instead
OF Two, AS Has Been The Case
Heretofore.

1t may be interesting information to
prospective candidates for municipal
offices to know that the last legisla-
ture enacted a law which provides
that in cities of $4,000 and over, all
municipal officials shall be elected to
serve a period of four years instead
of two, as formerly, and that there
fore, those who are so fortunate as to
land jobs at the next municipal elec-
tion will not be called upon to make
another canvass of the city for four
years.
This is fact which is not gen
orally known, and makes the office
holders position a trife more desir-
able than it has been The fact that
a man who has heretofore served the
municipality in an elective office is
required to begin a new campaign al
most as soon as he has been elected
to office has been a great nightmare
to officials, and much qualification
has been expressed at the provisions
Of the new law.
Under this arrangement there will
be perhaps not many more than half
dozen cities in Mississippi to which
this law will apply, for the reason
that not more than that number have
the necessary $4,000 of population,
the state being made up principally
of small towns close together Hat
tiesburg, of course, will be included
in this list. and it is now up to the
candidates to get busy and make ar
rangements to land one of these four
year jobs.
The new arrangement is believed to
be a good one, for the reason that the
various offices will be more desirable
and a greater effort to secure them
will be made.

Street TAXES
ARE COMING IN
Many Dollars Have Been Added to the
CITY Treasury During the Past
Several Days.

The annual time for paying street
taxes has rolled around, and already
the Office of Chief of Police Williams
is deluged by parties who have re-
ceives summons to Work on the
streets of Hattiesburg as the law di-
rects.' practically all of whom would
prefer TO pay the required $500, not
withstanding the fact that the city
viii furnish all the necessary tools.
Street taxes are going to be collect
ed closely this year, and it behooves
every one who receives a summons
ia waltz right up and deliver the ma
yuma and get the job out of the way,
for il must be paid, and the best time
is now.
There is no such thing as getting
around the payment of this tax, and
it is useless to attempt to dodge it.
\ close check is kept on all summons
issued and it is vain to think that the
matter may perhaps be overlooked. 1t
is not the desire or intention of the
authorities to work a hardship upon
anyone in this matter, and all poss,-
bel courtesies will be shown by the po-
lice department. but the tax must be
paid and it is up to them, in the natu-
raj order of things. to see that no one
escapes.
A summons will be left for you if
you have not already received one,
and the proper thing to do is to march
along 10 the city hall and get done
with it,
