No Football for G. ". j.
NO, FOOTBALL AT G. w. u;
GAMES ARE CANCELLED
Schedule Is Wiped Out-Meeting of
Federal League Tonight

, meets Georgetown Wednesday afternoon
on the Hilltop field.
Midget" Moore will work against the
Stenographers this afternoon for the first
five innings, as he will more than likely
start against Georgetown Wednesday.
Big Rasmussen will finish the game
against the Business outfit.
Heimark will again be on first, as his
| injured ankle has rounded into shape.
The loss of the big fellow at the initial
| station weakens the infield, and with him
back in the game, the Stenographers
should prove easy.
While Western is picked by many to
win the scholastic title, there is one team
which Is never out of the race. Tech Is
the outfit in question. and although ap-
parently hopelessly beaten, will always toe
the scratch in great form.
Last year Tech beat out Central, after
trailing nine runs in the rear for seven
innings. Tech has also beat Western, al
though the Red and White aggregation
was far superior to the Manual Trainers.
This year that same luck may play an
important part in the series. High school
baseball is a gamble, pure and simple.
What should be easy infeld outs are
booted all over the diamond. the pitchers
blow UP without minutes warning, and
the bases. The team with the breaks
wins the scholastic title when two or three
evenly balanced mines are classed to-
gether.
According to the dope, Tech has a
mighty sweet pitcher in Lefty Showers.
Against Gallaudet, the southpaw did not
look any too good. as he was sadly lack
ing In control. but with plenty Of work
the port wheeler should develop. Coach
Lynch will more than likely work him in
the majority of the practice games. al
though young Defendorf is a good little
hurler, and will have to be reckoned with.
Speaking of Buck Becker, the local boy,
the Atlanta Constitution says:
Buck Becker though working with a
slightly lame arm, had the Toronto
bunch on his hip. Ten hits were gar
nered from his delivery, but they were
wide apart, misplays aiding a bit in the
three runs that did come across. The
best part of Beckers work was his cool
ness under fire.

That this league will be an assured

prosper.

LARGE NUMBER OF THEM DE-
STROYED AT THE M. =. CON-

EARLY LAST NIGHT.

A large number OF empty sacks in
the NJ. F. Gonzalez Company grist mill
- the corner Of Tarragona and Zarra-

about 1890 o'clock last night. The
origin of the fire was not learned LAST
night.
The fire had gained considerable
Roadway, but no damage was done to
the building or the grain and feed
stuff. The building was filed with
smoke, which came from the doors
and windows in large volumes, but
the prompt arrival of the trucks and
the quick work of the f1remen pre-
vented the fire from spreading.
The fire was discovered by E. G.

the time on his way to his home on
East Gonzalez street. He notified the
fremen on duty at the truck house
short distance from the mill, but an

GARDEN STREET
PROPER PLACE
FORBANOSTANO
PROF. GILFILLAN SCOTT BE-
LIEVES PARKWAY WOULD PRO-
VIDE THE IDEAL LOCATION.
BY GiLFILLAN SCOTT.

With the view bf providing the Pen
| sa cola public with outdoor entertain
| ment during the summer evenings, 1
have been looking around for a suit
able spot, where a bandstand could
be erected and several hundred per-
sons seated at a comparatively small
cost to the city.
A proposal is about to be made that
the city authorities vote a sum Of
$1,000 for such performances by the
Pensacola Concert Band: but no spot
| has appeared available other than Bay
view park, which is a long way out
and only possible by daylight.
There has been quite a lot of good
ratured banter concerning DR.. Block
er's Fortress" corner of Palafox and
West Garden, and the advent of some
seats has tempted me to enter the
fortress and look around.
A walk from the entrance to the Bay
len street end has resulted in the
thought that right there is an ideal
location for evening band concerts.
The requirements are a hundred
seats for five persons each, $40 plat
form and some additional lighting.
Many frst-class English seaside re-
sorts provide similar cheap accommo
alton for the summer, and the band
is paid out of the money received for
seats.
matter on a business footing and it
works admirably.
A man in uniform passes among the
seats and issues numbered tickets in
return for a fixed payment; ticket
holders can move around and sit any
where, showing their tickets when
asked.
/ believe the public would appreciate
an open air concert, say too evenings
week, and that a charge of a nickel
for q seat would be cheerfully paid.
IF a. hundred five person seats to
commence with were satisfa ctorily
patronized more could be added for
there is plenty of space; and, as a good
band could be engaged for $40 a night,
the enterprise would be self support
irg.

OFFICER KILLS
MANY PIGEONS
oRED TO DESTROY THE FLOCK
WHICH ANNOYED CONGREGA-

CHURCH..

Officer Soe1ter, one of the crack
shots of the police department. killed
twenty three pigeons with small cal
ibre rifle yesterday afternoon about 4
o'clock in an endeavor to destroy a
flock of the birds which annoyed the
congrega ton at st. MichaeFs church
by flying through the open windows
during the hours of service. The re-
quest for destroying the pigeons came
from the priest at the church and Off
Ger Soelter was detailed by Chief San
ders to shoot them.
officer Soelter killed a number of
the pigeons at st. MichaePs by shoot
ing them while they were on the roof
and other parts of the building, but
after firing several times the birds flew
to the county court house building,
a across the street to which point the
officer followed them and continued
shooting. A number of pigeons were
also killed at this place.
From the court house the pigeons
flew to the roof of the First Presby-
terrain church, a short distance away,
where the officer kept up the hunt.
He also killed number of the pigeons
at this place, where, he said the hunt
ended.
L Hebron, an automobile dealer,
whose place of business is across the
street from the Presbyterian church,
protested to the chief of police against
the hunt of the pigeons in that vicin-
ity, and Chief Sanders Immediately re-
called the officer, as he was detailed
to shoot pigeons at st. MichaeTs
church.
A large crowd of boys followed OFF,
Ger Soelter and every time he brought
down a pigeon they cheered Justify.
The pigeons killed by the officer were
among the boys.
