Hughes Received Co0lly

Columbus, Miss, Septemb er 5.-(Special)
Hon. B. A. Weaver, president of the Co
lumbus National bank, who spent the
summer in Colorado, has returned, and
states that the reception accorded JUS
tice Hughes on his western trip was by
no means enthusiastic.
Mr. Weaver declared that the visits OF
Hughes to various hotels where he
CHANGED to be a guest created little IN
terest and that nowhere did he receive
adulation and attention usually bestowed
upon a presidential candidate. He stated
that while the old line republicans Will
support Hughes, that most of the pro-
gressives will vote for Wilson who seems
likely to carry all of the doubtful west
err states. The banker further stated
that it seemed to be the general con-
sensus of opinion that the western tour
of the republican had hindered rather
than helped him.

The so-called ALLEN gang" won the
championship of the City league here
Labor Day, when they completely out
classed the Blue Mountain club and
won by the score of ID to 0.
Gyp Young was hit rather freely, but
his support was worse than poor. Sew
eral pop flies went for hits and the
Allen gang were allowed to run wild
on the bases. The Blue Mountain club
was IN in the air and failed to play
anything like their usual game.
Mcfarland was in great form, as ne
gave up only four scattered hits, none
of them coming in the same inning,
shut Blue Mountain out and did not
allow a man to get past second base
The Allen gang gave him perfect sup
port. with the exception of the first in
ming, when an error was made.
The game was featured with the hit
ting of Hendricks, Camp, Nunnally and
Anderson, the base running of Sherrer
and Camp and the pitching of McFar-
land.
