CONEY ISLAND FAIRGROUNDS
SWEPT BY A BIG FIRE
(By Associated Press.)

New York, May 27.-Coney Island,
the play ground Of New York, suffer
ed the worst fire disaster in its his
tory today. "Dreamland," the largest
of the amusement parks, was wiped
out and about four blocks adjoining,
covered with hotels, restaurants,
booths and moving picture shows
were destroyed. In all about two hun
dred buildings were burned, and the
loss is nearly three million dollars.
Thousands of persons are homeless
and penniless. The fire started in the
tarred scaffolding of Hell Gate" a
scenic railway.
1t was enormously reported this
morning that six babies in the incu-
bator hospital lost their lives. The
infants were saved. In removing ami
mails from the stocks, lion got loose
in the throng and caused consterna-
tion until he was finally shot to
death by mounted policemen. Sixty
of the 1O5 animals were left to die
in the fire.

Mr.. D. |. BATSON
CALLED TO Beyond
He Was Related To a Number OF
People in Hattiesburg And Had
Host of Friends.

Mr.. F. w. Foote, of this city, re-
ceived telegram about two o'clock
this afternoon, advising of the death
at his home in Silver Creek of Mr.. D.
L. Batson. The message was sent by
r. l.. Longino and briefly stated that
Mr.. Batson died this morning at 1:30.
Mr.. Batson was closely related to a
number of Hattiesburg citizens and
was well and favorably known here,
where he was for sometime, in his
early manhood, employed as teller in
the First-National Bank. After leav-
ing Hattiesburg Mr.. Batson was cash
ier of the Bank of Poplarville until
he was appointed National Bank Ex-
aminer for Mississippi and Louisiana,
which position he held at the time of
his death.
While the death of Mr. Batson comes
as a distinct shock to his friends and
relatives in this city, it was known
that he has for several months been in
bad health, being a sufferer with kid
ney trouble.

GREENWOOD Won IN A
SLOW AND LISTLESS GAME

In a slow and listless game Green
wood took the second of the series from
Hattiesburg Friday afternoon by the
score of 6 to 5. The visitors secured
the lead in the first inning when
Thornton's homer brought in Boyd, and
they were never headed, though it
looked on several occasions as if Hat
tiesburg would be able to turn the
trick.
Bagby, who had pitched a difficult
and hard-fought game on Wednesday,
was sent in for the Woodpeckers,
Eaton having been hit on the arm and
being unable to pitch. Bagby was not
in the best of form and was touched
for ten hits, but balanced this up
somewhat by his excellent control, not
a man securing a free pass.
The college pitcher, McGehee, went
in at first for Greenwood, and while
he was liberal with his passes, his
strikes were rather difficult to con-
meet with, and it looked as If he might
win his game. Manager Thornton,
however, thought otherwise, and sent
Leverett in the box In the sixth. Lev
erett was equally as wild as McGehee,
and not only gave out passes, but sue
ceeded In hitting two of our men.
However, he managed to control the
critical periods and won out.
The home runs of Thornton and
Reese with men on bases, were fea-
lures, while the mastery manner in
which Madden covered short filled all
with admiration. Madden was the
right man in the right place all the
time and his pegging to first was of
the hair-raising order. Hattiesburg
filed the bases in the first and in the
sixth, and saw all hopes go a glimmer-
ing when our best batters famed the
atmosphere.
