DIED FOR STARS AND STRIPES
South Carolina Boy, i'm Naval Ser

Provincctown, Mass, Aug f.
Thirty iathoms deep IN the waters
OF Cape Cod Bay, in search Of a
sunken torpedo, George w. Fairey,
a gunncrS mate on the battle
ship Connecticut, whose home was
at Orangeburg, S. c., lost his life
yesterday, according to word
brought ashore here to-day from the
fleet. The Connecticut was engaged
in torpedo practice when one of the
missiles was lost and Fairey was sent
out with boats crew and diving
apparatus to recover it.
On his way to the bottom Of the
bay he signallcd 20. k.' There was
Il pause for a moment when he
reached bottom and then came a
faint signal Of danger. His COM
rades pulled the diver to the surface
as quickly as possible. Hurriedly
opening the armor they found him
unconscious, but still breathing. All
efforts to resuscitatc him failed.
The cause Of the accident is not
known, but it IS presumed there
must have been trouble in the trans

THE BRUTALITY OF BASE BALL.
Gruc, in Atlanta journal, Compares
Game with Prize Fights.

| am surprised to hear that 90
O00, more or less, men, women and
gamblers, paid from $50 to $50
seat to witness the Jimmie Jeffries-
Johnnie johnson fight, when they
could have seen more brutality by
paying two bits for bleacher seat
at a ball game.
This statement probably will rock
the sporting public to the founda-
ton and by writing this am sound
Ing the death kncll of puglism.
How can a tap with pillow at
the end Of it be rs exciting as the
things ! am telling below? Pcrhans
the lab OF the glove will start the
claret from the receivers beak. Not
very exciting, is it? Perhaps after
hugging each other for three rounds
one OF the fighters slaps jolt to the
others jaw, and the fight is over.
But base ball--glorious base ball,
the national pastime-isn't tame
like that
In the first inning Smith comes to
bat. The first two balls sent up are
strikes; the next ball is a splitter,
an inshoot. Smith braces himself,
the curve breaks just as Smith
swings and the ball cops Smith on
the beak. Just like hitting a COW
on the head with a sledge. Smith
is carried from the field with his
nose smeared around on the back OF
his neck.
Jones comes TO bat and binglcs to
left. The crowd yelps in gee-it's
good for two bases. Jones gives the
eight-pound bat mot an eight-ounce
glove) mighty heave as he beats
1t to first. Brown, the catcher, IS
carried from the field with a broken
skull. Doesn't a padded Knockout
sink into insigniticance in compari-
son with this lovely brutality?
In the excitement Jones has made
second and decides to go on TO third.
LOOK, he starts! See his lovely
spikes tnot eight-ounce gloves)
glisten in the sunshine. Green IS
blocking third so he can tag Jones.
Just as the ball reaches Green's
mitt, there is a cloud Of dust-the
ball rolls to the bleachcrs and from
the cloud Jones emerges and sprints
for home, with the calf of Green's
left leg hanging onto his spikes.
Oh, | could. go on and on describ
ing the beautiful, bloody brutality
OF our national pastimc, but have
not time.
Unless prize fighters use plaster
OF paris in their gloves or pickaXcs
to maui each other with, prefer a
base ball game, because for mauling
and manning, breaking bones and
bread baskets, there Is nothing out

REV. YONGUE FELL IN HARNESS
After Years of Earnest Lubors He
Answers Masters Call.
(Pickens Journal. July 2S.)


Pickens Methodist charge, had been
paralytic, an uncomplainlug and
cheerful sufferer. He suffered three
strokes. In May he had a severe
attack and had not really fully re-
covered from 1t, when he was fatally
stricken Sunday, while in the pulpit
delivering the message OF his Master
to his flock, it being the first at
tempt at preaching since nc had
been suffering.
1t was his desire to preach, and
he did so, with the stewards and
friends begging him to abandon the
idea. He said he felt that he must
deliver his message. AS he stood
in the pulpit he faltered. Capt. +.
j. Mauldin went and stood by his
side, and, as he saw he could not go
on, begged him to stop. Brother
Iongue, realizing his condition.
managed to pronounce Il bencdction
on his friends and congregation.
These were the last words he ever
spoke. He fingered until o'clock,
when his soul was waited to the
God who gave it.
1t was Brother Yonguc's wish
that he die as he did, and be buried
where he fell. His wishes came
true. His was a beautiful life and
Il triumphant death. How few Of
us, who read these lines, can hope
for such glorious ending OF time
and happy beg inning OF eternity as
he experienced.

fraught with such import. A dark
gloom spread over the whole com

T01ry was a daily beauty about
the life Of this Cody man which
won every heart. He cXcmplilied
by his pure and honorable life, the
teachings OF the Golden rule, and
umIailingly cvinccd a practical picty
that will long be remembered as the
best of professions. In tcMDera-

He believed that "men and women,
youth and children seek the friend

doors are open to those who smile; "
that "all social circles welcome
cheeriness;" that "A sunny face is
the open sesame to hearts and

Washington, April 9.-"The removal

as to its moral effect on the reaction
aries. They will be little more

Rep. Charles A. Lindberg, of Mime

his entire record in congress is en-
titled to classification as one of the

Cannonism had been downed. In or

Rep. Lndberg added that he ap-
proved, in the main, the editorial in

that the special interests would domi-

effectively as though Cannon were its
chairman, and that so long as the
republican majority in the house
serves the system, it will make little
