NORMAL WINS OPENING GAME
Down MeaIestsr by Score Of 6 to z.

If the class of game played by
the Normal school team Saturday
afternoon is improved upon, or even
maintained throughout the season,
hey will make a splendid record
In Weideman they have one of the
cleverest pitchers of the Normal's
baseball history. In batting, where
Normal has been woefully weak for
many past seasons, they showed mp
strong Saturday, and against a
pitcher better than the average of
hose in their circuit.
In the first two innings neither
team got a man to first base. The
last two Manchester batters in each
of these rounds were struck out by
Weideman. A nit and an error gave
the visitors the first run of the
game, in the third. Normal took
the lead in the fourth, touching up
Johnson's delivery for four clean
hits which netted the pedagogues
Two tallieS. In thesfifth John Nelson
got first on Johnson's too slow peg.
stole second, and scored from there
on Reeds second hit. In the sixth
Il. Nelson and Clemens both singled,
the former scoring on Smiths sac
rifce and the latter on Halls wild
heave to the backstop. A single by
Anderson and a double by Peterson
scored the visitors final tally in
seventh. Normal scored again in
the eighth, but as the game was
called before the close of this in
ming, to allow the Manchester team
to catch the train, it is not counted
and the final score is taken from
the standing at the end of the
seventh-5.2.

But ven though the mortgage
debt is overdue, and the holder
has taken possession Of the pro-
perty the mortgagor's rights are
not at an end. He still has what
is known as an equity of redemp-
tion-that is he has the right to
redeem the property by paying all
the money due, including principal.
interest and necessary expenses.
The time within which one NAV
redeem after the day when the
mortgage was due, known as the
period of redemption, is fixed in
a few states by statute, as in
Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota
and Rhode Island where it is sixty
days and Kentucky, where it is
five years. In other states the
courts allow what they deem to
be a reasonable time under all the
circumstances of the case.
The MORTGAGE, the holder of
the mortgage, has it within his
power to cut off this equity of re-
demption. He may bring fore
closure proceedings in a court of
law by which the mortgage is de-
finitely closed. By these pro-
ceedings disposition is made of
the property at a mortgage sale
under the direction of the court.
From the proceeds the expenses
of the sale are paid, the amount
due the holder of the mortgage
under the mortgage is paid, and
if there is still a balance remain
ing it is returned to the man who
originally gave the mortgage.
By the terms of many mortgage
es Of movable property the hold
er, after default of payment, has
the right to conduct a public sale
of the property for himself, with
out having recourse to foreclosure
proceedings. This sale must be.
fairly conducted in every regard,
and should always be a public
auction, though private sales are
sometimes countenanced or agreed
to by the mortgagor. The pro-
ceeds of the sale are disposed of
in exactly the same as
after a sale on foreclosure. Either
a foreclosure or a sale under a
power in the mortgage cuts off
the equity of redemption.
Thus it is to be noticed that the
mortgagor-the man who gave
the mortgage-has a very real in
terest in the property, even after
the mortgage is overdue. If it is
worth more than the dept the sur
plus must be returned to him, and
so he has an interest in seeing to
it that the sale is fair and for the
highest possible amount. Notice
should always be given the mort
gagor of the sale Of the mortgage
ed goods in time so that he may
attend. If the goods do not bring
enough to pay the dept due the
mortgagor is personally liable for
the balance.

FORCE OF VIBRATION.
A Musical Chord That Shattered a
Huue Glass Bowl.


Discussing the proposition that a
wineglass can be broken or shattered
to pieces by a musical chord, Edgar
Lucien Larkin In the New York Amer
lean says:
Il had a huge glass bowl one foot In
diameter resting on its glass stand.
The flint glass was from one-Quarter to
three-quarters of an inch thick. l ros-
ined a violin bow. drew it across the
edge. and the entire hemisphere of
solid glass d~isintegrated into hundreds
of small pieces. The sound of break
ing into fragments was entirely IN
known to me, a cracking or grinding.
and the bits of glass few far apart.
Il had used this same bowl before
classes for several years with violin
bows. But or this particular day the
students as well as / were surprised at
the breaking and unearthly noise.
The fact is l happened to vibrate
the bowl with its key note-that is. set
harmonic rate, which means the pre-
else rate with which 1t was able to vi
brat TO send forth that note, for notes
are II tes of vibration. and they all
obey rigid and beautiful harmonic
mathematical laws. and these agree
With other set and fixed laws"

NOTES OF THE GAME.

NOTES OF H GAME.
On account of the hour there was
not a very large crowd of towns
people out to witness the game.
The student rooters did not turn
out as we'll as might have been ex-
pected.
The Normal has a string of good
boxmen this year. Besides Weide-
man there is John Nelson, Stanley
Chinook and Elmo Dopkins, all of
whom have made good pitching
records.
Normal's batting strength, as
demonstrated Saturday, was a most
agreeable surprise, as the peda-
gogues have not been noted for
heavy swatting the past few sea-
sons. Reed LED the list with three
clean drives into c~enterfield.
Westholm, Macalester's big first
baseman, was "easy pickings" for
Weideman. The husky one struck
out three times, and the only time
he touched the ball at all was a foul
bunt. A hit by him whenever he
came to bat would have meant a
score.
N ormal should perfect their base
coaching. The runners had very
little guidance, and in two or three
instances ran wild" into sure put
outs.

Collier Appeals To The
Citizens Sense Of Duty
Asks citizens to rally to call Of duty and enforce
the laws.

The Journal last week made 4
vigorous appeal to the various a
gencies Of Lee county working for
the uplift and moral improvement
Of existing conditions among her
people torally and stamp out viola
tions Of the law in its many forms.
I want to make a further appeal to
the sense Of duty Of every good eiti-
zen Ct the county in asking that
they JOIN in this work.
Let all classes Of our institutions
and the officers who are sworn to
enforce the law, the members Of the
juries, the Justices Of the Peace, the
judges and every citizen rally to
their duty AMI lend a helping hand
in enforcing these laws Let the
good mothers remember that their
children are rGined hysuch immoral
practice and lawlessness, and let
tn IN join with their husbands,
sons and brothers in protecting the
homes in the county It is fight
for better homes and better citizen
ship which No good citizen can
shirk.
Such a sentiment should b. es-
tablished as to arouse the grand
jurors to a sense Of duty in causing
them to fully realize that they are
the guardians Of our laws and upon
them rests the responsibility Of put
ting into effect the judicial machin-
cry Of the county to enforce the
laws and guaranteed to the citizens
the benefits and projections to which
they are entitled. | know | am a
weak man myself, bat the purity
Of the homes Of Lee county should
be protected. l call upon all citizens
to sustain their institutions accord
ing to their own sense OF duty and
obligations to themselves and the
public, and retain their own res
pectability and citizenship.

An Interesting Letter
From MI. ]. N. Hines

Richmond, Va, Sept. Fl, IA.
Editor Lee County Journal.
Dear Sir.--Your most valuable
naner Of the 18th before me and l
have read with more than usual in
terest YOUR strong editorial directed
to the good people Of Lee county
tt IS strong forceful and tothe point.
Just before leaving home ! had a
talk with my wife and children and
I told them I was surprised to see
+bot the ministers Of the different
churches Of Leesburg and Lee coun-
~ had failed except in a general
way to make war on the blind I'll
ger element in Lee county Now, |
have the utmost respect and contl-
dence in the ministers of Leesborg
and Lee county. Nor do | intend
to cast any reflection on them, but
/ hope to see them from now on
Jump on the whiskey tigers with
both feet. AS soon as they 90, you
will see a large majority OF the
church members fall in lire and
thew will then start the ball rolling
and it will not be 6 months before
Lee county will be rid Of the tiger
business. There may be a few mem
bers get mad and say they will not
hear the preachers any more. AS
a long experience in life has taught
me that whenever a pastor rasps ms
members good and they stay away
from church a, while, they will soon
come back and they will from tins
on make great deal better members.
Do your duty, brethen, hew to the
liue let the chips fall where they
nav.
/ notice further in your editorial
that there was on Sundays lettering
and Ioafing downtown on Sunday
mornings. Now, you know the boys
and some Of the good sisters have
for 4 long time called that my Sun
day SCHOOLGIRLS. We'll, plead gull
ty to part Of It, and am ashamed Of
it, but when Iwould come up to the
crowd, there would be a half dozen
would say, Come, Hines, and give
us a good joke" And most OF them
were good church members. One
of my friends wrote me a few days
ago and said that the boys were still
Iloafing around on Sundays and dur
ing the week they would throw era
ckaloo for drinks, cigars &c. Now
Mr.. Editor, as 1 said am guilty OF
lots of things, but I've never done
that. There is a law on the statute
books against such practice, and as
you mentioned gambling in your
editorial, doesn't this come under
that head? As 1 said before [ near
no reflection on the ministers Of Lee
county, but hope to see them star

The war has nothing to do with the

years. What Leesburg could not
handle, he is close to Albany and
they would take al the balance and
more besides. But Virginia proper
reminds me Of our Georgia people,
all tobacco here and al cotton in
Georgia. The war has smashed
prices on tobacco Just as it has on
cotton, so you see, Mr.. Farmer, the
importance Of raising something be-
sides all cotton. Let every farmer
sow q few acres in wheat, plenty Of
oats, make corn and raise plenty.of
meat to do them, and then let this
cotton be a surplus crop and it will
