Mondays Game

The most exciting game of the
season was played on the Local
diamond Monday afternoon against
Cochran. The score was really
four to one in favor of Cochran,
but the Cochran umpire had such
a marvellous eve, in that he saw
things that really did not happen,
that he called another man safe
making the score FIVE to one in
favor of the visitors. This umpire
was replaced by Carroway in the
second inning. A huge crowd saw
the game, the largest that has
witnessed a game on the local field.
The home boys looked swell in
their new suits and played as we'll
as they looked. Their were three
errors made by the locals. The
Cochran boys wore uniforms a
little soiled from hard playing but
their record for the game was
spotless. Culpepper for Fitzger-
aid up ID hits. Williams for
Cochran, six.
In the eighth inning Culpepper
pitched but three balls. Chrocran
popped up the first one to Cooper
on second. Williams grounded out
second to first. Smith flied out to
Norris in right field.

To The Public

1t is we'll understood that my
chief object in entering the race
for mayor was if elected, to see
that the expressed will of the peo-
pie at the polls in connection with
the prohibition issue was carried
out by the mayor and council.
Mr.. Drew W. Paulk who announc-
es to succeed himself has addressed
a card to the public in which he
promises to be governed by the
majority OF the council in the flu
ture in all matters pertaining to
near-beer and prohibition, and to
rigidly enforce these laws in the
cause of law and order. In all
other respects he makes a most
excellent mayor, and administers
the affairs of the city to the gen.
eral satisfaction of the people at
large in view of which facts l see
no reason why | should oppose
him, and therefore withdraw from
the race with the assurance to. pa-
friends that l sincere appreciate
their loyal support so generously
promised me.

WE TAKE THE SECOND.

Fitzgerald won the second game
of the series Tuesday before an
other large crowd. The game was
close, 5 to 4 and both sides played
the best kind of ball.
Their were three feature catches
made, Barnett's catch of Soseby's
fly, up against the fence, Rhodes
catch of Eubanks fly over short
and Les Norris's catch of Cochran's
fly over second base. Beal made
one extra good catch too.
Garwood pitched excellent ball
for Fitzgerald and some say that
his hitting was big factor IN
breaking up the game In the eighth.
Charlie hit 500. Fuss, the kid
pitcher of Cochran, pitched as
good a game as could be wished
from one of his experience.
Meeban for Cochran gave the
crowd some pointers about pegging
and Monahan for Fitz did equally
as good work behind the rubber.
Quarrels and CarrowaY umpired
the game.

Isn't that simple enough?
Osteopathy looks upon the hu-

as primarily the result of struc.

Any machine will go wrong as

Religious Work
Christianity In Korea.

Japan has no intention Of hamper.
ing the progress of Christianity In Ko-
rea. On the contrary, the rulers Ut

teaching into the educational system
Of Japan, as they recognize the value
OF Christianity as u moral uplift."
In these words the Rev. Frank s.
Dobbins refuted al assertion made re-
Gently by a minister to the effect that
Japan intended to prohibit Christian
teaching In Korean schools and to
make Shintoism the religion Of that
country.
That statement was made ignorant
ly or it was intended to create preju-
dice against JAPAN" continued the
Rev. Mr.. Dobbins. Il am convinced
that there is no truth in it.
Count Okulna, the premier of Japan,
has frequently said he believed Chris
tianity to be u splendid moral force.
n for this reason there should be
more Christian teaching in Japan's ed

Of the Adventist minister's statement
