Jack Lelivelt, with a single, double,
and triple was the hitting infant of the
troup, and was presented with a trunk
tag and a shaving mug by Jeems Nc
Aleer for his hard work.
Wild" Conroy gobbled up seven put
outs. one peaCherino after a long run
to the fence, and also pOled a bingle.
Prof. Joe QUirk gave him patent
safety razor warranted to kill. Bill
Cunningham had nothing but Japa-
neSe fan the first three times he ap-
preached the dish, but on his fourth
appearance was there with a tidy bingle
to left. During the fray Germany
Schaefer murmured bunch of nothings
back of third and aided in the victory
so much that Willie Fowler let him
ride in an upper berth ali the way to
ST. Louis. Germany kept on saying
things all the way to the station, too,
mebbe about that berth.

Some Marathon.

From every viewpoint that Intercity
Marathon, from Laurel to the Munsey
building. was certainly one grand sue
cess.
On every side the officials were con-
graduated on the handling Of the race
itself. while the officials all were most
profuse in their expressions of satisfac-
ton at the excellent arrangements that
were made for the handling of the ath-
letes. the baggage and every other de-
tail connected with cuch an event.
Although the heat proved quite a
drawback for the runners they were all
in such excellent condition that they ran
most impressively. and the Intercity
Marathon race Of 1911 will go down in
history as one of the biggest events
the South Atlantic Association of the
A. A. u. has ever known.
To every official and medical exam
iner The Times takes this opportunity
to express its sincere appreciation for
the manner in which everything was
conducted.

Only Washington Newspaperman
With the Nationals.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, May 14-Pale, emaci-
ated, and staggering, Walter Johnson,
the Nationals star twirler, insisted on
accompanying the team to this city
The thoughts of being CoOped up in d
Chicago hospital were too much for the
big fellow, and he bravely rose, dressed
and reported to Jimmy MCAleer that he
was ready to leave with the team.
johnson has lost a lot of weight, now
tipping the scales at only 176. his normal
weight being 1870 pounds. His checks are
hollow and he has no color. Lack of
food for three days has weakened him
greatly, and, unless he shows rapid i'm
provement he will be sent back to
Washington from this city.
Gives Up Hope.
81 don't expect Walter to be of any
use to us for several weeks" said Mau-
ageT McAleer today. He hasn't been
right at any time this spring, and l am
in hopes that this illness will be the end
of his indisposition.
With Walter in shape. we'd have
grabbed three games in Chicago. As It
was, he collapsed, and it was all off.
I'm going to give him long rest and
see how he improves under it
Although Frank Smith pitched for
Cincinnati yesterday the sale has yet
TO be ratified. Three American League
clubs have declined to waive, Wash
ington being one of them.
Could Use Him.
MCAleer thinks that Smith would be
a welcome addition to the crippled
pitching staff Of the Nationals and he
is willing to pay the waiver price
Complications are likely to rise from
the use of Smith yesterday by Grif-
fifth an dthat hard-earned victory of
the Phillies may be thrown out of the
record.
1t has been rumored that Smiths
ankle is weak, too weak to allow him
to do good work, but McAleer is will
ing to give it chance. He thinks
that there are many pitchers of less
value than the famous rival Of big
Ed" Walsh.

REGATTA in Baltimore.


The decision of the Middle States Re
gatta Association to hold its annual
races at Baltimore on Labor Day means
much to the oarsmen of Washington.
Had the regatta been assigned to some
city further north the expenses of send
ing Capital crews would have been too
great, but now that Baltimore has
landed the affair 1t is up to the boat
clubs here to make the strongest entry
possible.
Speaking of rowing, that was
rather remarkable victory which Ellis
Ward scored with his Pennsylvania
crew at Springfield yesterday. To beat
Yale at all is some achievement. but
when a crew proves so superior to the
Blue as to paddle across the line six
lengths in front 1t must be some crew.
I still look for Penn to be a big fac
tor in the annual regatta at Pough-
keepsie.

Give Johnson a chance.

While the majority of Washington
baseball fans took sides with the
Washington club against Walter
Johnson. they should at least be gen.
erous and give the big fellow a
chance before roasting him too Sc
verely when he loses. 1 noticed at the
first game he pitched at home, the
fans were a little too anxious to
cry, Take i'm out" when he began
to weaken Johnson hasn't been well
and there is plenty of time for him
to come around He was sincere
In his viewpoint in that rather odious
salary matter, and every man has a.
right to his viewpoint. However.
whether he was right or wrong
should not make the Washington fans
any less sportsmanlike in according
their best player the same support
they did when he was making less
money.

O'Clock Tuesday evening, October

lings gave in marriage his daughter
Miss Ella Nora, to Reverend Noah
Harrison Shepherd, Of fStantonsburg
The church had been beautifully
decorated with rolls of cedar and
holly, while the pulpit represented
forest of cedar, ferns and golden
rods. The church was light with
yellow, green and white candles,
which made it a scene of surprising
beauty.
Mrs. Frank Branch, sister of the
bride, presided at the organ, accom-
panied by Mr.. Churchwell with the
violin, and rendered some beautiful
selections. AS the strains of the
bridal chorus began the attendants
entered as follows; Mr.. Carl Stall
lings and Mr.. Ferd Harrison down
each asile, followed by Miss Edith
Harris and Miss Rebecca Johnston
The groom entered with his best
man, Rev. Mr.. Stevens. Miss Annie
Lawrence was maid Of honor. The
bride came with her father, DR.. O.
c. Stallings, who gave her away,
preceded by little Doris Branch,
niece of the bride, who opened the
gates. The ceremony was perform
ed by Rev. W. L. Britt, Of Enfield.
The bride wore white satin with
trimmings of ribbon, chiffon, med
allions and pearls and carried
large bouquet Of carnations. The
bridesmaid wore cream satin and
carried boquets Of roses and ferns.
The bridal party repaired to the
brides home, where a delightful
supper was served and several hours
were spent in social concourse. The
bride was president of the w. M. S.
and organist and teacher in the
Dawson Sunday school, and her in-
fuence will be sadly missed.
They were driven to Enfield the
following morning, accompanied by
the bridal party, where they left on

COTTON GROWERS MEET.
An Enthusiastic Meeting Of Farmers
HELD in Raleigh Wednesday.
THEY ADOPT STRONG RESOLUTIONS.

THEY ADOPT STRONG RESOLUTIONS.
The following report of the farm
ers meeting in Raleigh Wednesday
of last week is taken from the News
and Observer:
Over two hundred determined
North Carolina farmers, represent
ing practically every section of the
State, met in the hall of the House
of Representatives yesterday at 3::3C
o, clock p. M, in response to the call
issued by President H. o. Alexan-
der, of the State Farmers Union, to
discuss the present low price of cot
ton and to devise means whereby
the farmers Of North Carolina might
cooperate with the farmers of the
cotton belt in protecting themselves
against the present situation by
holding this years crop for better
prices and curtailing the corp of
next year. To this end resolutions
were adopted, urging concerted ac-
ton, and delegates were appointed
to the Cotton Conference, to be held
IN New Orleans October 23rd, to
solicit the concerted action of ali
Southern States. In short, North
Carolina took the" initiatives; set a
precedent which, if followed IN prac
tice, as we'll as in theory, will guar
antee the farmer justice. Live at
home and board at the same place'\
was the sentiment shown, as repre-
sentative farmers urged their breth-
ren to raise their own foodstuff and
be Independent.
After full discussion of the low
price of cotton the following resolu-
tons were adopted:
Whereas, We meet in a time
nothing less than a crisis to all South
ern interests cotton is now selling
below the cost of production, to the
great injury of not only our farmers
but OF every worthy interest in the
South.
Whereas, All the information we
have received from every part of the
South indicates that the crop is mate
tally shorter than the government
esJi17sJe indicates, and we are con-
fdent that farmers who hold cotton
will get an advance Of from $40 to
$50 q bale before spring.
Resolved, That we earnestly urge
farmers throughout North Carolina
to refuse to sell a pound Of Int at
present prices, and that they not
only refuse to sell themselves but
act together through their unions or
10 arrange for al other
farmers to get advances on their cot
ten and hold for the higher prices
that are sure to come; we earnestly
urge all merchants and manufacture
ars to cooperate to this end.
Resolved End. That we urge that |
cotton be held in the seed, this plan
beneftting the lint.
"Resolved 3rd. That we approve
Ibe call of the convention to be held |
n New Orleans en- the 23rd, and we
appoint two delegates from each
Congressional district to attend that |
Resolved 4th. That we must en-
ohatically urge upon our people the
great opportunity for forming CO.
operative warehouses. Such ware
houses should be organized by farm
ers or farmers in cooperation with
business men.
"Resolved 5th. That we regard
he price Of cotton seed as Being as
much below the cost of production
IS cotton, and we should hold for
oetter prices, or, best Of all, feed to
stock and get in full its two values
both its feeding value and its fer
