BIG CROWD AND
GOOD BUSINESS
MONDAY WAS ALMOST EQUAL To
A NORMAL FIRST MONDAY
IN COLUMBIA.

Monday was "humdinger" i'm
point of trade and the number of peO-
pie of the country in the city not to
be a first Monday. The merchants
did fine business during the day and
the crowd was almost as large as that
on first Monday. The farmers were
generally feeling good. The drouth
did not do anything like the damage
that they had thought that it was do
ing. Many farmers declared that the
recent wind and rain had done more
damage to the corn than the drouth.
Much of the late corn is on the
ground as the result of the severe
wind Of two weeks ago and the con-
slant rains have caused considerable
loss. On the whole every one was
feeling optimistic and with the pros
poets good for fine pastures this fan
and a good forage crop the loss from
J the drouth will be forgotten.

Cummings started with a dozen plants,
only ten of which lived. He has been
growing them especially for new plants,
rather than for fruit, and with this object
has been taking off the blossoms as they
formed. A few Of the plants he left to
bear, and has been picking ripe berries
from them all summer, and expects to
until the plants are covered by snow. He
had strawberry shortcake Sunday. But
the achievement of which he is most proud
was the production OF ripe fruit on one OF
this years plants, plant potted July %,
which he brought to this Office, bearing q
large, ripe berry. Mr.. Cummings now
has about seventy-five young plants.
Besides those he grows himself, he ex-
poets to buy more next year, and in the
spring will have about 1000 plants. Els
worth-grown straw berries from early
summer until late fall is one of the pleas
ing prospects for the near future.

FRED'S COMMENT
 ON THE AMATEURS

Rain took the life out of amateur baseball yesterday afternoon when a majority of the games were called off on account of the steady downpour throughout the morning hours. It saved many team from a heartless defeat but the same for a needed win.
 
 Monk" Bardolph Is playing a fine game for the Southern Bell. Monk was dead one at the beginning of the season but lately injected some new pep into his frame. Monk" is swatting the pill for about 1850 these days besides taking every fielding chance coming his way.
 Manager McEachin has a good col lection of ball tossers and should re- peat the Southern Bell stunt of last year. They are now within striking distance of the leaders and to win a majority of the remaining games means another rag for the telephoners.
 We are glad to see the noted Pro- gressive Farmsrs take to winning games. Manager Rodgers has a lively crowd and 1t was shame to see the Farmers handed numerous reverses. But now 1t Is different tale. The Farmers have won their last six starts and are slowly pulling out of the low CT class.
 The addition of Frawley and Red Jones to the team is probably the chief reason. Red" Is q first class receiver and his ability has already got the wIldness of the elongated Frawley un- der control.
 The Cops have about completed their schedule Their final battle Is Thurs day. when the league comes to a close. The Cops are lowering somewhere around the .500 mark. They failed to make good-thats all.
 Shorty" Thomas is playing great ball for the Farmers. Shorty start

Kid Elberfeld Has Played
 Last Game In the Infield

exertion is less and more time is allowed to watch the finer points on offense and defense.
 Jake Pitler, whom Elberfeld is coaching to replace him at second for the Look outs, appears to be developing into a Southern. league sensation. The Mich,- gander, who is one of the most brilliant fielders ever seen on the local diamond. Is fast as a streak on his feet. He prove i unusually weak with the willow at first but Is showing steady improvement His greatest asset is his fighting disposition. and his eternal supply of pepper. Just how promising Elberfeld considers the youngster is shown by the fact that he released so good a ball player as Jack Johnston rather than retard his develop ment. t is no secret that the kid expects great things of his protege next year.
 Tne installation of Elberfeld in the out field does not appear to have weakened the club either defensively or offensively. hiberfeld is outhtting Johnson and by switching Mcbride tn left and going to right himself he has left the club as strong apparently on the defense. The Kid Is not as finished fielder as Joifn- ston, but he has better arm and judges the batters as we'll as he did upon the in field. The Lookouts undoubtedly wifi fin sh the season with their present lineup.

FEDERAL LEAGUE
 MAY MAKE LEAGUE QUARTERS IN GOTHAM

New York, August 7.-Scorning even to listen to any hint that the Federal league is experiencing financial storms, Fighting Jim Gilmore, leader of the in- dependents. reached New York yesterday from Chicago, ready to establish the leagues headquarters in this city and transfer them from the former head quarters in Chicago.
 President Gilmore declared with em- phasis that the western trip just con- cluded had proved the most successful of It's kind in the history of the organi- zation, not only from a percentage standpoint in the standing of the various teams, but also from a financial end This, according to the leader of the Feds was due to the fact that the western teams until few days ago all occu- pied berths in the first division and the scramble for the lead was creating western enthusiasm. Baltimore is the only city that did not do well on the trip, while Buffalo. under the leadership of Harry Lord. caused its packers much glee by winning 20 of the last s2 games played.
 rresioent Iihore oeciineo 10 state where he will have the new headquar- ters and he also insisted that as yet the grounds for the New York team next year have not been definitely decided upon. although it had narrowed down to two places One of these places Is said to be the spot that the Interna- tbonal league had picked out in the Bronx.
 It was also reported yesterday that on account of the poor showing of the Baltimore team this year its franchise would be transferred to this city next sea son.
