pitch. and after four Gulls had
scored on him. Tommy Atkins took
his place. Atkins was little bet
ter and the Mobile runs continued
to pile up Atkins first act was to
walk his old team mate, O'Dell,
and then Jacobsen followed with q
triple that chased Hemphill far
into his back territory.
Laudermlk of Bad.
Laudermilk, tossing for the Mo
bile team. frightened up after one
inning and refused to allow any
more runs. and while the Gulls
were piling up total of nine runs
in their Ave innings, Atlanta had
to be content with the single tally
received in the first inning.
Only by humping the ball against
the ribs of Callahan. Bailey and
HARRISON in the first inning, did
Laudermilk show any intention Of
tossing away his chance of win
ming, but he soon recovered from
desire to put the opposing PLAYERS
out of the game by breaking their
stats, and let them take their
chances of hitting his offerings.
Only three of them got near
enough to the plate after that in
ming to get safe hit and the gen
tleman with the Dutch name was
credited with a win.

Evil Of Idleness.

Work develops all the good there is
In a man; idleness all the evil. Work
sharpens all his faculties and makes
him thrifty; idleness makes him lazy
and a spendthrift. Work surrounds
a man with those whose habits are
Industrious and honest; In such society
a weak man develops strength, and
a strong man Is made stronger. Idle.
ness, IN the other hand, is apt to throw
a man into the company of men whose
object In life Is usually the pursuit Of
unwholesome and demoralizing diver.
