Games Today Mobile in Memphis. Chattanooga in Montgomery.

Nashville, June S.-(Specal.)- )-Boyd was in great shape this afternoon holding the Volunteers to three safe hits, and won his game in fine style. Fleharty, the former Baron pitcher who held Bir- mingham to two hits the last time Nash vile was in that city, was ineffective, his chief trouble being wildness in the tight places. This. coupled with three costly errors on the part of Catcher Harry Glenn, gave Birmingham three runs, which was more than they needed to win.
 Catcher Yantz' playing featured the day He made two hits and walked once. out of three times up, scoring one of the Barons' runs himself and driving the other two across with clean single to center in the eighth round. His base running was also sensational. Yantz has been playing great ball during the pres ent series.
 Nashville's Lone Run
 Nashville scored first, making her only run in the second when Young doubled to the dump, was sacrificed and scored on McDonald's clean hit over second base This was the only time the locals ever nau an opportunity 10 score. Mc- Donald made the only other hit for the
 locals in the eighth. but could not get further than second. Yantz scored Bir- mingham's first run. Walking in the third he stole second and went to third when Glenns bad peg got away from Lind- say. Boyd also walked and Marcan rapped to center, bringing Yantz home. In the seventh the last two runs were made by the visitors. McGilvray opened with a hit and was sacrificed by Me Bride. He went to third when Glenn threw to second to catch him off, notwithstand | ing the fact that no one was covering | the base. At this juncture Glenn fur ther distinguished himself by missing | Yantz' easy foul fly near the plate and | the catcher took advantage of this op- | portunity by singling to center, scoring both runners Boyd followed with an- other hit, but Yantz was thrown out at the plate on a double steal Almeida went through his third successive game hero without anything that resembled a hit. He has been meeting the ball hard, but is unlucky in placing tho swats.

BesSemer Tn SelHld.
 Gadsden in Anniston.
 Rome in Huntsville.
 For 15 sessions Bessemer and Huntsville battled and finally the Pipemakers won' E to 4. Every moment was thrilling one while every fan was excited It was a sensational game, as in several or ths extra innings base runners would reach the bases only to be left there or to fall to score. For three hours the fray con- tinued until "Jawn" Cochran's swat nroyed to be the lucky one and Hunts vile lost.
 The game was "some" fight The pitch ing of Fry and Reese was excellent; the support given them better and Tn every respect 1t was a ball game. After VII Hams was taken from the box in the early part of the seventh inning, the game grew closer. After allowing the visitors to tie the score in this session the game evolved itself into pitchers battle.
 Sensational Pitching
 Every inning after the seventh may be classed as an extra inning, for the two teams met at 245 to play double header Reese was as steady as a clock and cool as an iceberg In a few innings the bases would be crowded, with but one or two batsmen out. Then the twirler would mow them down or the felders did the work On the other hand Fry was in fine form, although a bit wild He allowed but four hts in the 2-3 in- nings that he occupied the box. In these sessions he struck out six men and pitched like a veteran in the pinches.
 Both pitchers were often in danger. At times it seemed as if the last inning of the game was the present one. However, the winning run came after eight innings of runless baseball. Many innings were hitless. The game was certainly thrill CT. It's a wonder that six did not die and 30 didn't faint Gout was forgotten while the centenarians danced.
 In the Early Innings
 The game was not so interesting in the early innings. Williams was hit and did not seem to possess much speed. while an error and few oppor- tune hits gave Bessemer her runs. In the second inning Benedict drove in Morgan and Pierre with a single to center. Then Huntsville got two, one in the fourth by three consecutive hits of Fenner, Rolleg and Overton, and another ln the nftn Dy McNeli uoupie and two sacrifices.
 Bessemer made two more in the sixth and apparently won the game. Ramage landed on base on ap error and then Morgan doubled. Perres swat for one bag brought home the two and an ap- parent victory. However, Williams weakened in the seXenth and allowed McNeil and Allen to reach first. Here Fry mounted the hill. Summa and Reidy singled and both trotted home.
 The Thrilling Part
 Then the thrilling part came. The game brought hearts to spectators mouths Almost every inning saw men reach first, second and third base. In the twelfth inning the first. man up tripled but got no farther. In the thir teenth one died trying to score and none tallied with the bases full and one down. In the thirteenth Huntsville got man on third with two down, but failed to score.
 The winning run was scored in the q ct

Candidate for Sheriff Makes His
Maiden speech--MercilessIy Direct.

Westbrook, Aug. l6,-tspeoiaD.-Mel.
Vile w. Trefethen, Republican eandi-
date for sheriff Of Cumberland County,
brought JOY TO his friends by making
his maiden speech here last night-a
straightforward e-shoulder talk. In his
own scrappy way. that got under the
coat of every man in the hall
His statements were fearlessly and
mereilessly direct when he compared his
administration with those of other
sheriffs.
In taking up his record he said that
pc never heard that he did not give a
business administration and that as far
as he was aware no one had criticised
the enforcement of the law that he had
maintained during his first year He
said that there had been criticism of
his accomplishments In that line during
his second year, but that when com
PARSONS were made through the use OF
facts and figures it could be seen that
he had been misrepresented He TOOK
up the comparison on the financial side
of his administration with that of
Sheriff Pearson. In making this com
parison he said that the county reports
showed that the money received through
the sherim's department during Mr.
Pearsons administration of 1901 and
1902 amounted 10 46l03.l7, while his adj
ititiiStfdlioii III iauJ ana iJlb lDtIiiEu
s57, 1872, an advantage in his favor OF
81 ,666 So.
As for the matter of the enforcement
of the prohihitorY law during his sec
ond year in Office he had but this to
say: From Feb Z to March "a f4S days.
made Al seizures and held q cases in
court On the 2ith five Sturgis depu-
ties made only four seizures although all
s@ere strangers to the rum sellers while
my deputies We're we'll known From
March q to June when they left they
made &C seizures and held 10 cases In
the same time | made 81 seizures and
held p eases which proves that l was
more active than they We're"
In closing he said: "In September You
are to. choose a servant. 1t must be
either Graham. Moulton or myself Could
Graham do better than Mr.. Pearson, who
had Stackpole, Plummer, Leach, Bis
bee, Skillngs. Charles Dunn, Jr., and
Bragdon? Graham can't be elected.
A vote for him is vote for Moulton
1t is either Moulton or myself. | leave
It to you to make your choice, What IS
Moulton doing? What are the condi-
tions. in Westbrooks and Portland?'
Trefethen's audience was manifestly
stirred and frequently interrupted him
with applause.

Raging Financial
Bull Proves But
Same Old Jackass

Portland, Aug. 16.--The Portland
Press of this morning comments upon
the Hon, w. T. Haines address,
Wednesday night, as follows:
Governor to-be Haines said at the
Auditorium that the Democratic JOKE
had been carried far enough-this joke
of paying debt created by the Re-
publican party, of settling for dead
horse, of reducing taxes which We're
actually increased, OF practicing econ
omy while making largely increased
appropriations, and all that sort of
thing. Mr., Haines is a lucid and in
teresting speaker, with a faculty of
claiming the attention and putting
things in such way that they can
readily be grasped. He took this
financial bun right by the horns
wrestled with it and threw it, and
showed that the beast, while fearful
in appearance. was the same old
Democratic jackass rugged up with
bulls hide and horns. 1t was a pref
ty good imitation, and for time 1t
imposed on the people quite success
fully, bnt it's true nwardness is now
shown up.
The burden of the Democratic song
two years ago and ever since hassb been
that Republican extravaganza ex-
hausted the means of the State and
left legacy of debt for the succeed
ing government to pay. No longer
ago than yesterday the Waterville
Sentinel, organ of Pattangal and Da-
Wis, was speaking or the way in
which the Fernald administration
shifted to the shoulders of it's sue
cessor the duty of paying for many
of these things" viz, the public i'm
provements authorized by the Legis-
lature of 1909. AS il the Fernald adj
ministration' did THIS or as if the
Plaisted administration paid for it.
The people authorized the expenditure
through their representatives in the
Legislature. And they paid for the i'm
pcovements, none else All 1.-THE bur-
den" shifted by "the Fernald admin
istratien" to "the shoulders of its sue
cessor" was the duty of acting as
collector and paymaster. 1t is no Sc
cret that the Fernald administra-
ton" had expected to be it's own sue
cessor and 10 assume this terrible
burden, which the Democratic pa
pers and officials have so exaggerated,
The Legislature, as explained many
times, has already provided means for
taking care Of these extraordinary
appropriations by raising the tax rate
to FIVE mills for 1910. This would have
done it all right, 1t would have taken
care of the unpaid bills, and it did
take care of them. The only trouble
was that by a miscalculation the
revenue was not received in season
TO square up the years accounts.
There was no need to put on another
mill and make the tax six mills as the
Democratic Legislature did for 1911.
at the instigation of the party man
ayers and for the sole purpose of
making a show. That half a million
or so Of taxation was exacted ahead
of time for political purposes.
The joke about the Plaisted adj
ministration paying the bills of the
people has indeed gone far enough.
The joke about effecting economy,

lion dollars more as compared with
the preceding biennial period will
