WELDON MOPS UP

The McCrory Ball Team went
to Weldon Monday where they
received a severe drubbing at
the hands of Weldon's fast nine,
the score resulting II to /. 1t
was no more than Manager Chas.
George expected however, as his
men had not been on a diamond
since last year.
Harris pitched six innings for
the locals and held Weldon down
to four runs. McFall next went
in the box and Weldon scored six
runs. Wanting to try out DAILY,
Manager George next placed him
in the box and the game finished
II to l, McCrory having made
her only score in the first inning.
Weldon has an enthusiastic
bunch of fans, both ladies and
gentlemen, and, although we were
sorry to have to lose the game,
it was a real pleasure to see those
good people rejoice over the de-
cisive victory made by their
players.
McCrory has invited Weldon to
play a game here next Monday,
Aug. %, and promises to make it
more interesting for them. We
fully believe that our boys can
defeat their team and nothing
will prevent us from seeing the
game next Monday afternoon if
we can help it. Weldon has a
good team, a clean bunch of ex-
cellent fellows and if you want
to see and enjoy a fast game, go
out to the ball park on the above
date.

NO COURT

Because of the refusal Tuesday
Of attorneys practicing in the
Woodruff County Circuit Court
to elect special judge in the alb
sence of Judge j. M. Jackson of
Helena, who is i'll, court will not
convene until the February term.
The state constitution provides
that in the absence of the pre-
siding judge at the opening of
the term of court the attorneys
shall elect a special judge at 10
O'Clock on the second day. Tues
day was the second day.
There are five murder cases on
the docket, including that of Gin
cinnati Pearson, the negro who
killed Deputy Sheriff John Harris
near McCrory. whose case was
remanded by the Supreme Court
far new trial, and it is thought
this fact had some connection
with the refusal of the attorneys.
1t is said these cases cannot be
tried until the next regular term
of court. 1t is thought probable
Judge Jackson will call a special
session of court to dispose of the
cases of 13 prisoners held to
await the action of the Grand
Jury.

After reading the notice in
THE HOME News last week about
her visit to California, Mrs. L.
McFall informs us that she is
sorry that we did not learn of
her visit to Mr.. and Mrs. E. C.
Kramer, of Santa Cruz, Cal.
She says that she was their guest
the most of, her time while in
California and that they did
everything possible to make her
have fine time and enjoy the
sights of their home town and
state. With their car they drove
to all the principle cities and
places of greatest interest, and
although Mrs. McFall stated that
she enjoyed her visit hugely to
the Langtons at Los Angeles,
the genuine hospitality of the
Kramer home in Santa Cruz shall
ever be remembered and that her
visit to Santa Cruz was the best
part of her entire trip.
