Sam Crawford tells a story on Joe
Sugden that, while not new, is worth
repeating.
Joe was catching and Clark Griffith
was pitching in a game in Chicago one
day" said sam. a foul tip knocked
one Of JOe's fingers out of joint and
he walked out to the box to have
Griff pull il back in place.
Joe extended his hand, which has
the worst looking lot of snarled fin

Griff.

Jim Delehanty. Detroit infieIder,
doesn't let the little irritatiOns Of life
worry him; he sees the bright side
His sunny disposition was sOrely
tried in Washington one summer. The
season before he had had a big sue
cess at bat Then he played a month
in Japan. He returned and MADE a
poor start in the league season He
couldn't hit and the fans roasted him
One darkey fan, in particular, never
failed to boot every time Del slipped
up:
Say, Mr. Delehanty, why didn't you
all stay in Japan?"
But Del always kept cool
Last year his knee was hurt and
two doctors could not agree on
diagnosis Although suffering, Del
smiled and said.
Better call another doc I never was
stuck on tie games Let's reach a de-
cision."
One day after his recovery Del and
some teammates went to Windsor for
the races Del placed a bet in the
third race and his horse was last in a
big field oscar Stanage, the catcher,
asked him:
How are things going, DeI2"
Fair" replied Delehanty- Il had a
bet on a brOnchO in the third, but 7
don't know whether he was last in that
event or first in the fourth"
W. A. Phelon declares he overheard
this conversation on the Reds bench
last season.

LIFE OF YOUNG LOTT
CRUSHED BY TRAIN
At Lyman Last Wednesday
by a aLogging Train Belong
ing to the Ingram Day Co.
Was Son of Jesse Lott,
of Logtown-Survived by
Wife and Three Small Chill
dren---Remains Brought
Here for Interment.

Edward Lott, well-kno wn young man
of Logtown, this county, was mangled
to death beneath the wheels OF log
train at Lyman, Harrison county, at Ii
o'clock Wednesday forenoon.
From press reports, it appears Lott,
who was an employee Of the Ingram
Day Lumber Company, was seated on
car loaded with logs, near the mill, when
the train made sudden lunge, throw
ing him under the wheels. His body
was horribly mangled, and death must
have been instantaneous.
The remains were sent to Gulfport
the same evening, where the body was
embalmed and prepared for burial and
shipped the following morning to Bay
St. Louis. From here private con-
veyance brought the body to Logtown,
the home Of the deceased, for final rest
ing place.
Edward Lott was the son of.f.Jesse
Lott. He was a native of Hancock
county, aged 80 years. He is survived
by his wife and three small children and
by his father and family.
Young Lott was in Bay ST. Louis
only few days ago, en- route to Gulf
port, thence to Lyman, where he was
going to fill the position with the In
gram-Day Company. While here he
met a number of our citizens, with
whom he was we'll acquainted, and his
conversation and anticipations for the
future are recalled. by the news of his
tragic death.

Bay st. Louis is to have another ice
manufacturing plant. Ground was bro
ken during the early part of the,week
for the erection of building for this
purpose by the Peerless Oyster Com
pany, adjoining their boiler house, on
the shell pile.
John Henry, of Bay ST. Louis, de-
signer of the Echo Building, supervis-
ing architect of the new county court
house, and similarly identified with
other prominent buildings, is the archi-
tect and will superintend the construc-
tion. Mr.. Henry is capable and con-
scientious, and his connection with the
work is sufficient guarantee.
The building is to be constructed OF
cement blocks, reposing on solic con-
crete foundation. 1t will require ap-
proximately 5000 blocks. These will be
manufactured on the ground, the Peer
less Company owning the block-making
machinery, and the work will be in
competent hands.
The dimensions of the building will
measure 40x70 feet, with fiat compost
ton roof, designed with view of re-
sisting the lake winds and storm forces.
This building will house 15-ton ice
making plant. The machinery, pur-
chased with much care, deliberation and
with view of suiting local conditions
and needs, is of the York pattern and
manufacture, 1912 model, and the sys-
tenn known as the compression method.
Work is to be pushed to rapid compile
ton, and the management expects to
have ice between May 1 and the 18th.
The plant will supply the Peerless
Oyster Company with all the ice it may
need, particularly during the shrimp
packing season, and the management
will also cater to the local trade, SO we
are informed, shipping in lots to other
Coast towns and the interior of the
county.

The Demands of South
mississippi.

Discussing the efforts of the South
Mississippi members OF the Mississippi
legislature to secure constitutional
convention, and the inequalities of taxa
ton and representation under the pres
ent system, the Meridian Dispatch says:
Hon. T. T. Davenport, member of the
legislature from Monroe county, and
also editor of the Aberdeen Weekly,
has introduced in the house bill PRO
viding for a committee to investigate
the claim of South Mississippi for a
larger representation in the state legis-
lature and for more equitable division
of the school fund. The vote on the
motion was tie, and Speaker Quin
cast the deciding vote in favor of the
appointment of a committee.
Some of the newspapers of the State
construe this as victory for the advo-
Gates of constitutional convention.
This is great mistake.
There is not the slightest possibility
of the legislature calling constitu-
tional convention, nor should there be
at this time.
It will be a long time before Missis-
sippi needs to go to tinkering with
her constitution by convention.
1t will not be done during Governor
Brewers term of Office. He has de-
clared positively against the plan. And
in doing SO he has undoubtedly voiced
the views of great majority of the peo-
pie of the State.
But South Mississippi is really enti-
tied to some relief as sought in her bill
of complaint.
Especially is the representation too
small.
Since the apportionment was made
the population has more than doubled,
while the representation remains the
same.
In some of the counties of the State,
one of them has two representatives
and senator. Others have floater rep
resentatives; one representative and
another between two counties not hav-
ing enough population for two, but
more than enough for one.
In South Mississippi, counties that
ought to have two representatives have
only one.
In some senatorial districts there are
four or five counties, in one of which,
based on population, there should be a
senator and two representatives..
From this South Mississippi should
have relief. It should Sspiaced on the
same footing with other parts of the
State.
This is sila4!y matter of justice.
But it can, and ought to, be done,
namely through a constitutional amend
ment, for which the people of all parts
of the State should cheerfully vote.
AS to the matter of school tax equality,
this matter should also be given due
consideration.
South Mississippi has just complaint
and is entitled to be heard, but con-
stitutional convention is not necessary
for this purpose.
