The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1910-04-27

the first weeks play some line will
be had on the various teams, and the
work of elimination and strengthen
ing will begin. Hattiesburg wants a
winning team and with one or two
exceptions the aggregation which will
pull out tomorrow for the Queen City
appears to be well rounded and able
to hold their own with any team in
the league. The weak points may
| come up better than appearances in
dictate, but Manager Stickney will
have his eyes on affairs and if new
strength is needed at any point he is
| in position to secure the necessary
material.
The home team will leave at about
! ten O'Clock about fifteen strong. The
| lineup will be about the same as in
the last game, and it is probable that
either Curmane or Eaton will be sent
in to do the slab work Hattiesburg
will not be without support in the mi
| tial game. Meridian is making prepa-
rations for an elaborate opening, and
of course the team of that city will
have the great bulk of the fans with
them. But local fans are going along
in force and it is probable that a full
car will leave here with the team And
then good clean ball wins approval
wherever played, no matter how par
tisan the crowd, and the people of Me-
ridian will give honor to some extent
at least where honor is due
Here's to the Hattiesburg team
May it deservedly win the pennant in
the contest opening tomorrow.

TRAGIC DEATH RECALLED.
Administrator Of Chris. Thiel's Estate
Sues D. u. r. For $4,000.

The tragic death of Christopher
Thiel Oct 80, 1908, was recalled in
Judge Hosmer's court, Wednesday,
when Fredericka Roediger. admins
traitor of his estate, began suit against
the d. L. r., claiming $4,000 dam
ages.
Thief was killed under peculiar
circumstances With his employer.
=. II. Smith. who was in the milk
business, he was trying out new
horse they had just purchased on
Bethuneavc., near Beaubien-st.. the
horse became frightened at a passing
car, and after rearing and pitching
ran onto the curb leaving one end Of
the wagon on the car track Smith
jumped from the wagon and caught
the horse Dy the bride. Thiel also
jumped, and attempted TO aid his en-
ployer, but the frightened animal rear
ed in such a manner as to throw
Smith into the ditch and Thiel to the
car tracks. where he was struck by
a car following the one that frighten-
ed tho horse.
The plaintiff claims that the car
which killed Thiel ran more than 200
feet while tine horse was rearing
about the street and that with ordin-
airy care The motorman could have
seen that the animal was unmanago
able. Had he stopped his car the ac-
cident would not have happened.

MACHINE REPAIRS ASPHALT.
Officials See Moving Pictures of New

Public Works Commissioner Haarer

tor were among the city officials who
were guests at a little Invitations!
moving picture show in the Empire
theater, on WoCdward-ave., Wednes-
Cay morning. The pictures they saw
were not ordinary dramas such as
make the moving picture houses popu-
lar nor even views of travel; they
witnessed moving pictures of asphalt
repair in various cities and criticizet
them from a technical standpoint
u. II. Colborne, representing the
Equitable Asphalt Maintenance Co, OF
Kansas City. was in charge OF the
show. He is dcsirous OF selling 10
the city a machine which repairs
asphalt pavement and the pictures
showed this machine in action.
Our machine requires only one-hfih
as much asphalt TO do repairing as is
required by the old method, says
Colborne. Whereas your repair gang
chops big holes in the surface, whicr
are filed with new material. we simply
clean the old surface. heat the surface
and fill In with not material, which is
welded into the old surface. This
makes a better JOB and costs less. We
have been using these machines for
seven years. so that they are no longer
an experiment"
II Is possible that one of the ma
chimes may be purchased for the
