GUESTS OF THIS CITY

Gov. McMillin is being accompanied
upon his campaign of East Tennessee
by Mrs. McMillin. They were visiting
in this city Tuesday. Mrs. McMillin
is one of the most charming women in
the state, whose culture and refine,
ment rather adorns than obscures hel
political acumen.
In the afternoon, following thu
speaking, Mrs. McMillin, the Govern
or and Col. Cy. H. Lyle were the
guests .of President Gilbreath, of the
East Tennessee Normal, in an automo-
bile trip to the Normal, Soldiers Home
and other points in johnson City.
The visitors were delighted with the
city and Mrs. McMillin fell in love
with the breezes that grow as well as
blow here, and the sweeping views OF
the mountain peaks that guard this
favored section called forth many
bursts of enthusiasm as she lrealized
what the low lands of Louisiana, the
home of her childhood, had missed in
the distribution of nature.

BASE BALL NOTES

The Soldiers look both ends of a
double header Tuesday from Cleveland
but lost the third game ye:terday
pastly because the visitors were slugg-
ing but largely because the local pit
cheers were using curveless balls.
Shaw, the best outfielder in the
league, and the best batter as we'll, has
been sold to Kansas City for 81, 600 and
left today for his new field. The
best wishes of all the fans go with him
and while we regret to lose him we
realize it is for his good and we are
confident he will make good and go
higher up. He is not only splendid
baseball player wherever he is located
but is gentleman with it and that is
what makes him popular with the
grandstands.
The Soldiers are trying two new
pitchers and there is every reason to
believe they viii make good. Weaver
pitched shut out game Tuesday for
six innings and Sheckels seems to
have something that is worth while
and will be tried out today.
