Of my friend w. J. Way, whom have

almost a walking skeleton.

BRUNSWICK BOYS
BEAT THEM ALL
COMPANY G MAKES BEST SHOW
ING OF THE WHOLE
BRIGADE.

Brunswick people are not given to
boasting, Dragging or blufing, but just
at this time it might be well for them
to lay aside their private desires and
hold their heads just a wee bit higher
than usual. The Brunswick Riflemen
have made themselves a little niche
in the Georgia hall of fame, and in
so doing have given their home PEG
pie just cause for pride. Read this
rom the Macon Telegraph:
Company G from Brunswick, made
the best showing in the physical ex
animation of any men in the entire
Georgia brigade, having only one man
disqualified by the United States sur
geons. The boys of this company, as
well as Capt f. c. Butts, of Bruins
wick, are right well pleased with the
result of the test"

COLUMBIA TRAINED
COLONIES LOOKING
TOWARDS PthNANI
CLYMER'S BUNCH DEVELOPED
HERE PLAYS WINNING BALL
EVERY DAY.
RIGHT START in THt DfNPLE
Never Have The Louisville Bunch Had
Such Squirt at the Beginning Of
The Season as They Have Had Dur
ing This Spring.

What has training quarters or train
ing camps to do with baseball teams?
That is question that is attracting
the attention of the fans of this Sec
ton of the Southland, and from the
record the Louisville Colonies are
making in the American Association,
it would appear that it had everything
to do with the progress of team.
Like everything that is turned out
from the great country, the Colonies
don't hardly know what defeat is.
Since leaving the Dimple and engag-
ing in the struggle for the rag of the
American Association, the Clymerites
have only dropped one game out of
the thirteen played, and that was the
first game. They went right into the
battle fit as a fiddle and have since
played ball like mid-season form. AS
matter of fact, Manager Bill Clymer
had great aggregation of ball play
ers here last winter, but the players
themselves said that they got better
training and were more seasoned than
they had ever been before.
It has been suggested that while the
players were here that they imbibed
some of the spirit that the Maury coun-
ty race horse is possessed of-never
know defeat and battle as long as
there is the least ray of hope left.
The Colonels go right into the fight,
and it looks as if they have cinched
the pennant right from the start.
indianapolis stands second in the
race, with percentage of .667 while
the Colonies have a percentage of GIT,
lead of $50 points. There is only
one way to account for this vast diff
ference in the teams and that is that
the Colonies were trained in Columbia,
the greatest spot on earth-the county
seat of Maury county-"The Dimple Of
the Universe"
All Columbia fans are roofing for the
Clymerites and hope to see the rag
float from the mast pole at the park
during 1917.

fair for a good yield of oats.

The wheat crop has shown improve
ment, but it is far from being what the
farmers would have it. In some sec.
lions there are good crops reported
but on the whole the wheat Of the
county is below the average 1t has
not made a good growth and this is
especially true of wheat on stubble
and stalk land. That sown after Glow
err or other legumes bids fair to make
a good yield.
Stands of corn, despite the cold, dis
agreeable nights and the work Of the
cut worms, are generally good, al
though in many fields there has been
a great deal to replant In some in
stances the very early corn will be
planted over. A considerable portion
Of the crop is not yet planted, many
farmers waiting until the second week
of May to plant.
Glover and hay crops are making
splendid growth and pastures have
been greatly benefited by the recent
rains. The indications now are that
the hay crop of the county will be
good, probably up to the average
Gardens likewise are in generally a
flourishing condition. The young Glow
err sown this spring has shown a good
stand in nearly all fields reported.

ISAIAH GHOLST0N IS
BADLY WOUNDED
WAS ENGAGED IN TEARING DOWN
THE WALLS OF FRY BUILDING
WHEN ACCIDENT OCCURRED.

Isaiah Gholston, colored, one of the
best known brick masons in the coun-
ty, happened to a serious accident Fri
day afternoon at 4:45 o'clock when he
was knocked down and covered by
bricks from one of the falling walls of
the Fry building, located on the cor
ner Of Seventh and High streets.
Gholston, with other fellow work
men, was engaged in tearing down the
walls and clearing the grounds for
the erection of the new Presbyterian
church, when the unfortunate accident
occurred.
Immediately after the wall crushed
to the ground, Gholston was discov-
cred underneath by other workmen.
DR.. ]. G. williamson was hurriedly
summoned and the wounded man was
rushed to the Kings Daughters Hos
pital Upon careful examination, he
was found to have suffered several
ugly cuts about he head and face and
the right limb was badly bruised, but
so far as could be learned, no bones
were broken. While his condition is
not rrecarious, it is feared that it
will be some time before he will be
able to be out, due to his old age.
