reputation for hospitality and ability to entertain large
gatherings into the most hrmets of the Empire
State The sacrifices these made for the of the
South entities them to the respect of their fellow citi
zens, matter how may view the causes that led
up to the struggle the results of the great contest the
veterans of those days due the honor ard respect
this generation, for the gallant fight they made for
what they believed the best for the South and the con-
tnuance of the civilization they represented America
reOces in the loyalty of all sections to the Country of
To Day and the loyalty of the South is questioned
these days. The veterans, who the Blue in our
midsts, have joined in the invitation to the Veterans of
the Gray and the younger and women in our city

make this occasion OF pride for the whole State and
an example of fraternity between the sections for the

Convicted of Assault

Thursday morning just before
the morning train pulled out for
Atlanta, Razar, the then third

was knocked down and beat up by
Mr.. Belcher, manager of the team,

We wish to correct a little err
ror and explain one commission
made in Fridays issue. In the
first game with Hawkinsville in
that place we lost by a score of
two to one as was stated. But
the two runs scored in the fifth
were not off of punched hits as
H'ville could not get more than
one hit at a time, however ur-
gently they were needed. The
runs were scored when McFarlin,
in right field, allowed the rub
Der in his glove to rob him of a
put out. There were two men
on at the time and they beat his
peg home. The commission was

final score was four to one. Our
star pitcher McFarlin did the
heavy part in the way that made
him leader in the Flag league.
He allowed only four weak scat
tered hits. Gheesline, the star
pitcher and manager of the
Hawkinsville club, opposed him.
He gave up five hits and his sup
port was not of the best. Our
new Indian player did some pref
ty work and hit we'll. Some of
our boys came back home Friday
evening after the game and went
back Saturday morning. Several
cars went back with them.

FITZGERALD ROUTED

Saturdays game with Haw-
kinsville was a route. The score
was fourteen to one in favor of
Hawkinsville. That one was
given to the visitors out of pity.
Garwood pitched five innings and
was relieved by Rosenberg in
the sixth. Seven runs were
scored off Garwood and seven on
Lefty, six of which were made
in the seventh. 1t was truly a
comedy. The home club hit like
six hundred and our club was up
in the air besides. 1t was worse
than the game with Unadilla in
this place, worse by far.
Hawkinsville plays US today,
tomorrow and Wednesday. Fans!
lets go out and make them swal-
low some of their own medicine.
Unless Dawson gives US some
games later this month these
games may close the season.
There is no accurate score of
the hits and errors and as the
figures in the score by innings
are so large we will not attempt
to give it.

Mesa Child Drinks
Gasoline and Dies

A sad death occurred about
eight o'clock last evening, when
the two-year-old baby son of Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. w. Anderson
drank gasoline from bottle and
was strangled to death by the
fumes before medical attendance
could be secured.
1t seems that Mrs. Anderson
had been cleaning house, or
changing some of the articles in
the house, and had placed a soda
water bottle party filled with
gasoline on a shelf. The little
one, seeing the bottle, and pre-
sumably taking it for soda water,
climbed on a cot which brought
him in reach of the bottle.
While the mothers attention was
elsewhere, the boy swallowed a
portion of the contents OF the
bottle. The child's struggles
brought the mother Immediately.

Many LittleS Make a Much

How would you like to sit
down at your desk, run over
your accounts, and absorb the
knowledge that anywhere from
one to five hundred people were
indebted to you in sums varying
from so cents to $500?
And how would you like to
meet those good people day by
day without their ever thinking
of offering you the small amount
due you?
And how would you like to see
these same good people paying
their other bills promptly month
by month and again forgetting
yours?
And wouldn't you just revel
in the knowledge that all of
these small amounts combined,
if suddenly collected up, would
swell your bank account to the
tune Of $500 or more?
When you reach the point
where you can appreciate the
grim humor of such condition,
and keep right on smiling, you
will have qualified yourself for
the life of a country editor.
And when you do reach that
point you will wonder why in
blazes you never thought Of the
editor when paying your other
bills, and you will just push the
breeze until you reach his shop.

OTHER COUNTRIES AT
FARMING CONGRESS

An idea of the vast scope of
the International Dry-Farming
Congress and the international
Soil-Products Exposition held in
connection with it, Denver, Sep
tember 26, October 10, may be
gathered from a glance at the
long list of foreign countries
participating and the delegates
already named by many of them.
Official advices have thus early
been received from the Depart
ment of State to the effect that
the following have been named
to officially represent their re-
spective governments at the Con-
gress sessions, October At.
Canada-W. S. White, Inspect
or u. S. Agency, Ottawa, Ont,

Canada will be at Denver in
force with fine government dis
play and also provincial and dis
trict display from the Western

contracted the habit of carrying
off sweepstakes at past Interna-
tional SoiI-Products Expositions,
and it will be we'll for the vari-
Gus states and countries to look
to their laurels.
This Exposition and Congress
combine to form the greatest
agricultural, industrial. mining

and the management is even now
planning ways and means to in
crease the area. The Congress
sessions will be participated in by
authorities OH agriculture from
this and every other country OF

NOW FOR The NORTH
ERN ARIZONA FAIR

Prescott, Aug. 3. The dates
Tor the holding of the Third An
nual Northern Arizona Fair have
been definitely set for Oct. 81.
~ and %, 1915. At a recent
meeting of the Northern Ari-
zona Fair Association, the fol-
lowing officers for 1915 were
elected: President, R. N. Fred
ericks; vice presidents: Mohave
county, Smiley Jones;" Navajo
county, Ed Sawyer; Coconino
county, Hugh Campbell; Apache
county, Fred T. Golfer; Yavapai
county, F. C. Whisman.
The executive committee is
composed of the following, being
the members of the boards Of
supervisors of the five northern
counties: Apache, L. R. Glib
bons, E. P. Howell and John G.
Hall; Coconino, L. E. Hart. r.
I. Brown and C. T. Voolfolk;
Mohave, 0. E. Walker, w. B.
Stephens, l. M. George; Navajo,
R. c. Creswell, @. r. Gardner
and Geo. w. Hennessey; Yava-
pal, VIM. Stephens, Henry SUI
der and Harry w. Heap. VIM.
Stephens, chairman of the Yava-
pai county board of supervisors,
was prevailed upon to accept
the superintendency of the fair.
He has been one of the most
active men in the Association
and has always assisted in every
manner possible and the Asso-
citation is extremely fortunate in
having such a man at this post.
The Department managers are
as follows: Livestock, E. w.
Stephens; Art, Women's and
Educational, G. E. Meany; Mines
and Mining, ]. H. Robinson;
Machinery, H. ]. Suder; Agri-
culture and Horticulture, J. A.
Hope; Poultry, w. M. Wood.
The superintendent are: Ma
chinery, G. 7. Joslin; Agricul-
ture, L. L. Bates; Mining, w.
w. Lewis; Merchants Exhibits,
w. c. Miller; Awards and Prizes,
M. B. Hazeltine. All commit
tees have been appointed and
work is going ahead. 1t is hoped
by the management to have the
premium lists ready for distri-
button net later than the latter
part of this month.
Every stockman, farmer, mi
ner and poultry fancier in North
ern Arizona should make spe-
cial effort to have an exhibition
of their products at the fair. A
good inter-county fair, such as
the Northern Arizona Fair has
proven to be, is of great value
to every exhibitor and the To-
cality from which the display
comes. The man who wins a
prize on any product either has
a better product than his COM
petitors or he has better meth
cd of developing and preparing
his product.
The management desires the
hearty cooperation and support
of every citizen of Northern
Arizona and with R. N. Freder-
icks at the wheel and the live
wirers he has chosen for his as
sistants, the Third Annual North
ern Arizona Fair is bound to be
a big success.
