ing numbers.
The baseball boys have been to con-

receipts to induce teams of standing to
come to Fort Pierce to play on the
local diamond, so that our home people
could witness the games, and they should
be liberal in patronizing the entertain
ment, which is given for their benefit.
so that they might be enabled to con-
tinue to furnish our people with inter-
esting baseball games.

INTERESTING DOPE
FOR BASEBALL FANS

Thursday and Friday of (this) week
are the dates for two ball games be-
tween Fort Pierce and Miami, on the
Miami diamond. 1t is said that the
Fort Pierce nine has been strengthened
by the addition of several players and
that the St. Lucie boys are coming
with the settled determination to make
the Miami fellows feel liz joining a
kindergarten class of bean bog tossers.
Thursday night, a dance will be given
at the Fair Building to entertain the
visitors and to increase the revenues of
the baseball organization. 1t will be
question for speculation, however, If
the Miami boys will ever be able to play
good game again until the grandeur
of their new suits has time to be a
little furnished. No human man could,
in any justice, be asked to don such
garments, forget them and-play ball.
The suits arrived Saturday morning
and will be displayed over Sunday in
the big window of the store Of w. M.
Burdine and Son. Citizens of Miami
are urged to go down and get near
view of the gorgeous toggery while it is
at rest. Remembering the recent fast
playing of the Miami team, there seems
to be little chance of ever again deter
mining that particular shade of blue.

Colonel Tucker is a veteran of the
Seminole war, fought in the ffties; saw
constant service for four years in the
late npleasantness, and is ready today
to take up his gun in defense of his cOun-
try's honor. Although he has always
answered to his country's call for more
than fifty years he has found time to
accumulate a splendid competence for
old age, which at present seems quite
distant. There are many beautiful
things about Col. Tucker, but the most
beautiful is the tender and loving man.

Times Union Tuesday:
Prominent among the sojourners at
state camp grounds at Black Point last
week was that grand old man of Florida,
Col. w. J. Tucker, of Fort Pierce. Col.
Tucker has had many honors bestowed
upon him, among which is the distinc-

which he takes no little pride. He was
born at Newnansville, Alachua county,
July 20, 1910, near the silvery waters
of the Sante Fe. Although being con-
graduated on all sides at the camp on
