Fielding of American League
Faster in 1918 Than 1912.

That the fielding in the American
league was faster in 1913 than it was
in 1912 is evidenced by the fact that
last season the clubs of the Junior or
ganfzatiOn made sixty-four more dou-
BILE plays than they did during the
preceding campaign, the figures for
the two years being, respectively, BIG
and 812. The Cleveland Maps again
carried of the honors in manufactur-
ing tWo-play retirements, they being
credited with 1913 dual slaughters as
against 125 in 1912. The Browns con-
tributed 127 double plays, the Nation
ais III, the White Elephants Ill, the
Tigers 10, the White Sox 108, the
Yankees Sc and the Red Sox 70. The
team that showed the greatest in
crease in double plays over the pre-
vious season was Washington, Griff's
Climbers producing 81 more double
demises in 1913 than they did in
1912. The Senators equalled an

The American Lacquer of 1913 who

 Dr. James Dennis, who now resides in Hot Springs, was born and raised in Forrest City, and like all the na- tiyes of this attractive town, has a warm place in his heart for the old home. To show his love for the town he agreed to accept the 5,000 appro- priated by congress for the purchase of the site, though he considers bis property is worth far more than that.
 Personally, he would much rather see the postoffice building on the South Side, but we are informed by those in authority that where there is more than one railroad station in a town it is the policy of the govern ment 10 construct it's buildings as nearly as possible midway between the depots.

It will be source of qualification, not only to members of his church but to Forrest City people at large. 10 know that Dr. F. w Gee has been re- turned to the pastorate of the Metho- dist church at this place for another year. Dr. Gees scholarly attainments and many Christian qualities have en- deared him to wide circle of friends, and the power for good which he un- occasionally wields will have strong influence upon the community. The Times joins in the expressions of grat- itcation upon bis return to this charge. The Rev. MT. McKelvy was returned to the work at Colt. and the people of that thriving little city are very much pleased to have him as their guide and mentor for another year.
