SAVE YOUR MULES AND HORSES

Farmers, keep your horses and
mules. Thousands of them are daily
being slaughtered in the European war
and even if peace is made the demand
for horses will be phenomenal, to re-
coupe cavalry regiments of the war
ring Nations. The price offered you
now may look tempting, but when you
need your work animals in the spring
YOU will find that the prices have soar
ed skyward. 1t is poor economy to
sell any kind of farm animal to get a
little ready money at this time. You
have the feed and can care for them
during the winter; in the spring you
will pay dearly if you sell now.

PARIS, Sept. 22.-An officer who has
just returned to Paris from Scissors
states that an aeroplane reconnoiss 5
ance has given rise to the conviction
that a large portion of the German
forces are retiring with trains heavy
with stores.
1t is believed orders have been re-
ceived from Berlin for the forces to re-
tire to defend the German frontiers,
leaving only 100000 men to defend for
titled lines and cover the retirement
A report from Rome says that the
Germans have changed their plan Of
attack, which explains their recent re-
treat in France.

(Al Handiboe, Star Center Fielder OF

It's a pretty hard proposition
where ones been playing ball day il
and day out for half dozen or 60
seasons to recall the best play of any
particular season, but with most of
the past South Atlantic league. race
fairly clear in mind, l think l can
say absolutely that play in which our
manager, Perry Lipe, cured in the
last game of the post-season series
with Albany was easily among the
best, if not the very best pulled off
by any member of the Sally league
during the two 1914 races.
The play came up in the last half
of the sixth inning, after Mcdowell
had hit for two bases and taken third
on Gains sacrifice. Erwin hit long
fly to right field. AS there was only
one man down, Mcdowell raced back
to third to tag up, in order to score
after the catch. Right in there came
the prettiest bit of head work l saw
all during the season and it was no.
cody else, but the Old Boy who IN
corked it.
Mcdowell, in order to leave the
base with the catch, was in crouch
ed position. This was largely re-
sponsible for Manager Lipe's success
in the play which followed but Perry
nevertheless must be given credit for
using his old think tank in tight
place, for had that run gone over the
other score Albany got in the ninth
would have tied us up. But that was
one run that didn't score. Perry took
everything in at one glance. All bent
over, he figured quickly that Nc
Dowell couldn't see just when Mayer
caught the ball if he (Lipe) got in be-
tween Mcdowell and Mayer. That's
just what he did.
Mcdowell couldn't leave the bag to
see the catch because that would take
up time and he would have to go
back up and tag up, which would
leave him little chance of scoring. He
did the best he could, but Perry sim
ply outguessed him. Perry saw in an

instant Just how the hit was going and
that Mayer would get it, so he simply
turned, facing Mcdowell and every
time Mcdowell tried to stretch
around so as to see when Mayer
caught the ball, Perry eased over into
his line of vision, and Mcdowell
couldn't see Mayer.
He just had to guess when Mayer
got the ball and this he did wrong by
two or three seconds. The conse-
quence was that after he had left the
bag and started for him, he saw the
ball just landing in Mayors hands and
he had to go back again and tag up,
after which it would have been fool
ish for him to have tried to get in, as
Sam got off perfect peg to the
plate While the peg was going home
Mcdowell simply stood fiatfooted and
then all of d sudden he yelled to
Fender, who was working the bases,
that Lipe had interfered with him.
The Albany fans took up the cry
thinking that because of Mcdowell 5
speed he should have been in and
that under those circumstances there
must have been some gind of inter
ference. l doubt whether any of them
really got the play as it was pulled
off. In a way Lipe interfered with
Mcdowell, but he didn't touch the
runner in any way, nor did he try 10
cross in front of him, the only inter
ferences which an umpire can call
according to the book of rules. Pen
der consequently would not allow the
claim of the Albany club though sey-
eral of the home players got on his
neck about it.
1t was simply a case of a good piece
of thinking on Lipes part and the
chances are that had that play not
been pulled we would have had to
have gone into seventh game in the
series. 1t was the first time I ever
saw play of that kind and l venture
to say the same was true of everybody
else in the park that day. 1t was one
of those new ones that so frequently
crop up even on the old heads and
which go to make the good old game
what it is.

BLACK. IS WORN
MORE IN PARIS
Evidence of Inevitable Toll of War Is
Becoming More Pronounced

PARIS, Sept. 22.-(Correspondence)
Already women and children n
black are growing more and more nu-
merous on the streets of Paris. Today
the official communique declares that
while our losses Gin a certain en-
gagement) were heavy, those of the
enemy were far greater" The newt
able toll of the war is being paid.
A tear-stained, trembling mignonette
told today how she heard of the death
of her only brother yesterday. He had
sent her no word since he went north
with his regiment on the second day of
mobilization.
There are no official lists of the kill
ed and wounded.
For five days this woman went %
the ministry of war seeking news. On
Friday they seemed to be preparing her
for the worst: Come Monday, and
we will have news of your brother.
On that day she was told simply: He
is dead" All further inquiries were
in vain. When and how he died she
could not learn, or whether his body
would be brought home-simply III est

Germans Are Retiring En- Masse
The Aero Scout Reports Indicate

The German general staff miscalcd-
lated the time required for Russian
mobilization, which it estimated at 40
days at least. This would have al
lowed time to take Paris, and for Aus
tria to enter Russian Poland and keep
the Russians at bay till the middle OF
September, when the Germans would
be able to come back and assist the
Austrians.
The resistance offered by Belgium,
Gen. Joffre's strategy, and the Austrian
defeats frustrated this scheme, and the
new plan is to hurl troops against the
Russians while acting on the defensive
in France.

MERCHANTS TO
ENTER PROTEST
With COMMISSION
ANENT Change OF TRAINS
On AmeriCuS-COIumbUS Line
of Central

Americas, in all probability, will be
represented this morning in the hear
ing before the railroad commission
relatives to the proposed change II
the passenger train service on the
Americas Columbus division of the
Central Columbus is going to make a
vigorous protest, it has been stated
here and has asked Americas to join
her therein, either by sending repre-
sentatives to Atlanta today, or by the
filing of written protest.
The chamber Of commerce was ex-
pected to discuss the matter last night
at its meeting, and probably formulat-
ed some plans looking to the protec-
ton of trade interests here.
The Americas chamber of commerce
was advised yesterday that the Cen
trail railway company had declined the
request of the Columbus chamber Of
commerce, which was, in effect, that
the contemplated changes in passenger
train service on this division be de-
ferred during the busy fall season or
until January 1st. This would con-
tinue the present excellent service
through Christmas.
The railway company considered the
proposition for a day, and then turned
it down, so Sec'y. Gardner was inform
ed yesterday.
The change in service the road would
make is in the schedule of passenger
train No. 5, which now leaves Coum-
bus at a 'seasonable hour in the morn
ing and arrives in Americas about
1920 a. M, on a two and quarter
hour schedule, This train, returning.
leaves Americas at 3:45 p. M, and ar
rives in Columbus about o'clock. 1t
is an "all-passenger" train and one
of the best trade trains" coming to
Americas.
1t is train that brings a great deal
of retail trade to Americas.
Under the proposed change, asked
of the railway commission today,
freight train, carrying the passenger
and mail coaches, is to be substituted.
This mixed train will require nearly
four and half hours to make the trip
between Americas and Columbus and
oftimes much longer, as delay will
be occasioned at way stations in deliy-
ering freight and shifting" or taking
freight cars.
Americas, and the people of Buena
Vista and Ellaville, who come here to
shop, have tried both trains in years
past, and they prefer clean passen-
ger train service to the old Billy
Hanks"
