sometimes be had about Bagdad for
as little as S3 or 81.

Above the Vulgar Gaze.

Until 1870 ii WAS against the law
and sacred custom for any subject to
look at the emperor of Japan. His
political advisers ana attendants saw
only his back. When he first left the
palace the shutters of all the houses
had to be drawn. and mo- one was per
mitted in The streets. Even today,
when the emperor has the privilege of
driving through the streets like one

nounced Johnson as the winner.
Flynn displayed no ability through
out the fight He was cut about the
face until blood ran down on his breast
in streams. He was utterly helpless
from the first round on, and by the
sixth was deliberately trying to butt
the champions head with his chin.
Smiths warnings did no rood and he
continued to do so. Through it all,
the champion was smiling. He evaded
F1ynn's attacks with the utmost ease
Apparently Johnson did not attempt 20
hit hard, but contented himself with
blow finding it's way through the bar
ricade of gloves and elbows behind
which Flynn crouched. 1t was an ex-
hibition of guarding and hitting in
clinches, as far as Johnson was con-
cerned. When the hight was over there
was not mark on Johnson, beyond a
slight cut of the lip. Flynn was not
hurt except for cuts and bruises on
the face. The fight was utterly lack

cheer during the fight.
Flynn entered the ring at 2:37 and
there was a tumult of applause.
Johnson entered the ring at 2:27 p.

EODYS IN WELL
PLAYED GAME
ONLY ONE GAME WAS PLAYED,
OWING TO RAIN. BUT THIS WAS
EXCITING FROM START TO FIN
IsH.

The Eddys made their third appear

the good graces Of Jupiter Pluvius,
one of the games of the scheduled
double header was played, Pensacola
coming out on the long end of four
to one score.

on the mound for the enemy and
pitched nice game, the home team
system. His support wobbled badly in
the second inning, however, and before
his team mates could get their bearing
three runs were over and the game
gone.
Kelly was the dependence of the
home fans and fully came up to expec-
tations. holding the hard hitting Eddys
to four bingles, one gift by the right
fielder, this being responsible for their
lone run.
Snyder, the first man to face Kelly
beat out an infield hit to second base
and Renicke neatly sacrificed him tc
the keystone cushion. Cusack breezed
but Petty hit a line drive to right field
which Smith badly misjudged and
then barely managed to reach, giving
Petty a. two sacker and scoring Sny-
der. Rankin ended the inning, going
out from second to first.
Pensacola did not get a man to first
in the opening round but in the second
business picked up. Hauser, first up

third base line, but on the second ball

TWILIGHT LEAGUE.
WI Cos VS.. Burrow Press.

Car Wi-Cos VS.. Burrow Press.
Whitmans VS.. Fuerst g. Kramers
There will be two games Of baseball
on the North Hill Fairgrounds this
afternoon, weather permitting. The
first game will be called at 80 p. m.
This game is between the Car WI Cos
and Burrow Press. Each of these
teams is playing good ball. The Bur
row Press team played a tie game
with the Alagas and Fuerst g. Kra
mers for their last two games. From
this il may be counted as one OF the
strongest in the league. although it's
standing does not show IL. The team
is much stronger now, than w.len IL
was first organized. The Car Wi Cos
are two well known to comment on.
When they play a good game on their
part is always expected.
The second game Is between the
Fuerst & Kramers and whNmans This
game will be the best that the teams
can put UP. IL will determined in
great measure who will lead the
league. If the Fuerst & Kramers win
ii viii put them two games in the
lead over any other team and still keen
them at 1000 per cent Should the
Whitmans win they will tie the Fuerst
e. Kramers for first place. The Whit
mans are handicapped by their pitcher,
Barrow not being in the best OF con-
dition. His arm has been out OF con-
dition for the last week or ten days.
but at this they do not lose courage,
for they claim that they will win with
some to spare.
The game Will be a pitchers battle,
with Farinas against either Barrow or
Mcdowell It will be called at the
regular time.
