SANG SWAN SONG
"DOc" Reynolds Was Invincible
i'm His Final Contest.
KaWS Defeated Witchese by
Score of 10 to /.

Wichita, Oct. 3.-"Doc" Reynolds was
fnvincible in the closing game of the
series here yesterday and the Kaws de-
feated Wichita by the score of 10 to 1.
Lambert, a recruit, was pitted against
Reynolds and was just as good as the
Kaw pitcher until in the seventh in
ming, when he weakened and was
pounded to all corners of the lot. This
was Reynolds last game of the season
as he leaves the team here and will go
to his home in Oklahoma. He will re-
port to Detroit next spring.
The score was one to nothing in the
seventh when Lambert weakened, Nc
Larry having hit home run in the
longest drives ever made on the local
lot. Lambert allowed three walks, a
single by Gear and a two-base hit by
Mccullough in the seventh inning,
which netted three runs. Again in the
eighth, he walked three men, and sin
giles by Gear and Cochran and Meal
listers sacrifice. an error and a wild
pitch allowed four more. Singles by
Forsythe and Koerner and two errors
netted the KaWs two more in the ninth
inning.
Wichita scored their only run in the
eighth on a single by Goldie Rapp, a
base on balls and a fielder'S choice. A
double play stopped a batting rally in
this inning. McColloughs fielding was
a feature of the contest. The score:

BELL
!. BUSINESS CROWS
Gross Revenue, Net Earnings
and Net Income All Larger
Than for Year 1911.

Business of the Southern Bell Telephone
and Telegraph Company in 1912 showed
considerable growth over 1911.
Gross earnings, operating expenses, net
earnings and net income all show in
creases. Total expenses other than oper-
atjng expenses show a slight decrease.
The annual report of the corporation has
just been made to the Georgia railroad
commission.
Gross revenue from operations during
1912 was 2,509, 1896 and revenue other
than from operations was S1S,941.f0, max
ing total gross earnings S2,529, 045.66, as
compared with s2,2S7, s33.S2 in 1911.
Salary of general officers was S22, $40. 81
salaries of all other employees were 1892,
S11.16; maintenance of equipment cost
S476, $500, and all other operating ex-
Grating expenses $1,309, S39.O "a for 1912,
as against S1,114, 141.30 for 1871. Net
earnings, therefore, were 81 ,219, 106.62 in
1912. as against s1,173,692.52 in 1911.
Taxes on the corporations property in
1912 were 1927 ,525.81; rentals cost $751;
059 Sc and $505, 1858 "a was charged off to
depreciation Total expenses other than
against 1892 ,642.46 in 1911. Rentals and
depreciation were larger in 1911 than in
1912. while taxes for 1912 increased very
little.
The Southern Bell, therefore. has $780,
752 II net income this year to apply to in
terest on bonds and dividends on capital
stock, as against s4S1, .06 in 1911.
The item of depreciation interests the
railroad commission II was understood
of the equipment, but the Southern Bell
charged more to depreciation in 1911 than
in 1912. Further details as to this item
are being sought.

The trade in mules and horses have
been fairly good this week. but not quite
as good as we expected, as the heavy
rains have left the farmer in such a con-
dition that they could not use the stock
if they should buy them Therefore they
are putting off buying till the last hour
Now owing to the heavy rains out West
the traffic over a good many of the rail-
roads is being put out of business.
There has not been much buying or
selling OF stock during the past week.
Therefore the market of the West has
become corded to q certain extent and
prices out there have declined $40 to SIS
a head. We do not know just how long
this viii continue. but have been in-
formed that the railroads will be ready
TO receive shipments by Monday. and we
believe that stock raisers and dealers viii
be wiling to part with our stock al d
reduced price rather than ship them back
home or keep them on expense bill such
as storage feed and insurance.
At present We are inclined to think
this is the time to purchase stock. as
we are confident that this decline will
only last for the next few days. then
you win see prices soar good deal high
