A FEW DIAMOND DOTS.

Inc NancyS r the SOreSt los
ers in the League. Their dopester
had the nerve last week to state
that Hattiesburg gave them their
first shut-out. Verneille and Welt
have administered a dose of kali
somine each, the merry Vicks-
burgers gave them a II to 0 in
junction.
Our dizzy blond friend, Ollie
Welt, is delivering the proper.in in
gradients these days. His trip last
week caused much discomfort at
Meridian and Yazoo City.
Another exhibition as Monsieur
Hunt put up here Monday will in
cite our fans to a cravat party.
Such crooked decisions as those
from a man whose character as a
ball player and otherwise bears i'll
repute will not be tolerated by
Greenwood fans.
The Timberjacks certainly show
a decided Improvement. Pratt,
the husky collegian, has been add
ed to their ranks and fills a vacan-
cy. Hall and Stamm are also putt
ing up good games for the Razor
backs.
The fans are glad to note the
picking-up in Dodson and McDon-
nen's stick work. Our old pets
have been on the wane a few days
of late, but the warm weather
seems to be rounding them up to
their good pitch.
Our versatile friend, Lee, whose
hair may be called red, is pitching
good ball these days, but a hard
luck day seems to fall to his lot
every now and then.
The Zuzus have been playing
against all kinds of hard luck late
ly, but theirs is a scrappy bunch
and it will be but a very short
while before they will be back in
form and prove themselves a for
midable opponent for any club in
the league.
With an average umpire Green
wood would have had the first
game with the Razorbacks. Man
ager Stickney, himself, admits
that Hunts decisions were the rot
tonest he had ever heard.

pecially Leverett and Eaton, is

WELT AGAIN IN THE LIME,
LIGHT.
In what you might consider a bat
fest, Ollie Welt added another to his
string of victories Tuesday after
noon when the Chauffeurs won out
over the Timberjacks to the tune 81

visitors. Timely hitting by Green.
wood when hits meant runs cinched
game for the locals, and the ragged
support accorded Lehman made the
Chaufeurs victory an easy one.
The indicator was in good hands
that afternoon, the old veteran Jack
Law umpiring the game. Every de.
cision was perfect and everyone was

piring.
Greenwood got their lead in the
initial inning when three errors
coupled with two hits gave them two
runs. In the fifth another assert.
ment of bungles and a hit or two
gave them two more: In the sixth
and seventh a tally was Melted.
Collins and Mcdonnell hitting and
Rolling's fielding featured the game.
Rolling and Thornton also got two
raps each and Big Kelly also sue
ceeded in getting a lone bingle.
The Timberjacks seemed several
wee bits off and several ugly errors
were charged against them. Stamm
on short made six errors out of the
first two games of tho series. Pratt,
the clever first baseman, was a little
off and made two bungles. Their
runs came in the fourth, seventh and
eighth, but four was all they could
muster. Pratt, Boyd and Sorrel led
in hitting for the visitors.
Welt yielded nine scattered hits,
while the Chauffeurs banged Leh-
men for eleven safe ones, craving
them at opportune moments. Welt
dished out four passes and zuked
five, while Lehman based two and
famed two.

The plaintiff had sued for 500. but
after hearing Senator Vest the jury
returned q verdict for $500.
The speech, which will stand as

follows:
Gentleman Of the Jury: The best
friend Z man has in this world may
turn against him and become his
enemy. His . and daughter, that
he has reared with loving care, may
become ~ungrateful. Those who are
nearest to Us, those whom we trust
with our happiness and our good
name may become traitors to their

when he may need it most. Mans
reputation may be sacrificed ii a
moment Of ill-considered action. The
people who are prone TO fall on their
knees and do Us honor when success
is with US may be the first to threw
the stone Of malice when failure set

SYNOPSIS.

Basil Tempest. worlds greatest poet
and novelist. refusing further to be lion
lied, shuts himself up in Craven, his
country home. His gloomy meditations
are broken by the admission OF an Amerf-
can, Lucy Carew. who has come to Eng
land to get study OF the author. but
more especially a synopsis OF his new
suite OF poems Tempest, angry at being
disturbed. declares he will write no more.
ard asks Lucy to go. Repenting his rude
ness IN sending her out at night In the
rain. Tempest hastens after her. but she
refuses to return to Craven with him and
takes lodging with a cottager. Next
morning Lucy receives an apology from
Tempest and an offer to assist her in
writing her essay. Tempest dictates to
Lucy. who listens spellbound as she
writes. Lucy decides to go to London, but
Tempest induces her TO remain and read
her manuscript TO him. Lucy declines an
invitation to dine with Tempest. who In
anger and disappointment, goes to Lon
don. He asks Lady Ormond. with whom
his name has been linked. to leave her
husband. promising 10 marry her when
me husband gets a divorce. She insists on
the divorce FIRST. Tempest departs for
Craven.
