MARTINSBURG, w. Va, August 15.-
King Brady. recently released by Mar
tinsburg to Hagerstown, pitched tight
ball against his former teammates in
the Tri-City League game here this
afternoon and was prevented from
shutting them out only by a base on
balls and an error at critical time.
Brady allowed only one hit and whitfield
ten and Hagerstown won easily, 6 to 1.
In the second game Dolly Gray, a
Washington lad, shut Hagerstown out
with great support, allowing but three
scattered hits. Martinsburg is now 30
far ahead in the league race that it
will cinch the pennant if it wins four
more games.

was passed This act was drafted by
Senator Bacon himself.
Senator Bacon's present term OF
service would have expired in March,
1919, and therefore his successor. TO
be named in the next general Federal
election, which is the Congressional
election in November, will serve for
four and one-half years, or the better
part of fun senatorial term.
Senator Bacon's friends In Georgia
viewed with growing anxiety his con-
tinued Illness in Washington, but mis-
death was, in large measure, unex
pected. particularly as later bulletins
from his bedside seemingly indicated
sure improvement and possible even
tual recovery.
First Direct Vote Senator.
Speculation as to his successor has
not been INDUCED in extensively, not
only because the belief was general
that he would recover, but because Of
the very great respect in which he
was held by his constituents and all
factions of politics In the State.
His last election to the Senate was
practically unanimous. and II Is
agreed that he might have remained
in the Senate, even had he lived ont
his present term and asked for a nth
election.
He was the first Senator ever elect
ed in the United States under me
Federal amendment providing for
popular elections of Senators, and the
first ever elected for a fourth term,
continuous or otherwise, in Georgia
Necessarily the death of Senator
Bacon will bring about far-reachlng
and significant changes In the politi-
cal situation IN Georgia, but general
discussion of that matter unquestion-
ably will be deferred until after the
Senator is laid to rest in Macon, his
old home.

a clot on the heart.
The Senate at once adjourned,
| abandoning all Of its business save
that which had to do with the fu-
neral arrangements. For minutes
after adjournment groups of men who
bad fought with Mr.. Bacon and
against him on the floor of the Upper
House talked in subdued tones Of his
exceptional character and his unex-
pected death.
The news of his death, because of
the absence in Atlanta of his col
league, Senator Hoke Smith, was an
nounced to the Senate by Senator
Overman, who paid a strong tribute
to the Georgia statesman. He said:
1.-THE sudden passing away of this
great Senator, who came to this
chamber with all the honors which
his native State could confer upon
him, and who repaid that trust by his
long, honorable and illustrious ca
reer in this body, is an irreparable
loss not only TO the Senate. but to the
people OF his State and also to the
country at large"
Was Born in 1889.
Senator Bacon was born in Bryan
county, October 20, 1899, of family
of wealth and indisputable social po-
sition. His education was received in
the common schools in Liberty and
Troup counties, and at the Univer-
sity of Georgia At the university he
graduated from the academic depart
ment in 1859 and from the law de-
partment in 1860. He has been ac-
counted one of the most distinguished
alumni of the university, and his alma
mater has honored him with the de-
grees A. M. and LII. d.

From his boyhood his dream was to

rational and humane handling of

as is necessary to maintain proper

and hygiene, to see that the convict

safeguarded as much as possible. |

with the city of Atlanta in making
| permanent Improvements, especially
such as building trunk sewers, etc,

her citizens not only of nuisanCes but
| of serious menace to their health. |
shall favor keeping all public thor
oughfares in the county in first-clas
condition and building other impor-
tant ones as rapidly as possible.

meet the obligations of the county
and will insist on a business admin

Presumably, the State Democratic
Executive Committee will be called

cons death likely will hasten this
meeting somewhat, as there now will
be two Senators to be nominated for
the elective terms in that primary, one
for full term and one for Senator
Bacon's unexpired term. There will
be a Governor to nominate, an en-
tirely new Legislature and full corps
of State Department heads, besides
two Supreme Court judges and three
Appellate Court judges.
Undoubtedly only one primary will
be called by the Democrats TO nomi-
nate all these officers, and these nom
