The deal was consummated between the officials of the fair association and the cullman Realty company last week and deeds to the property have been made.

DAWSON WALLOPED AGAIN.
Americas Took Third Straight Game
From Locals Tuesday.

In close game of ball Tuesday
Americas won a third victory from
the Dawson boys. Neither team ap-
peared to have any advantage over
the other, and every foot of ground
was warmly contested from start to
finish. The final score was to 6
in favor of the visitors.
The batteries were: For Dawson,
Mosley and Foxworth; for Americas,
Lamar and Hooks.
The winning run was scored in
the first half of the seventh. In the
last half of this inning Hooks, the
catcher for Americas, in going after
a foul fly collided with the third
baseman and was disabled. Umpire
Hill then called the game on account
of darkness and left the grounds.
This would have carried the score
back to a tie in the sixth inning.
The seventh, however, was complet-
ed with Riley as umpire, leaving
the score Z to 6.

Rec slaughtered six-foot monster

last week Mr.. r. L. McRee found a
large gator in the field near his

some pigs in a Negroes yard, while
yesterday a five-foot saurian was
captured in a ditch near the home
of Mr.. c. M. Gormley in the Sardis
community Many others are re-
ported to have been killed while
roaming around the country.
Much water seems to have attract
ed the reptiles up from the larger
streams, and hunger is driving them
from their hiding places. Pigs and
dogs are considered very toothsome
by Mr.. Gator, and no doubt his appe-
tite for these animals is attracting
him to the farm yards.
