no designs on Albania and will carry
the war into Albania only SO far as IL
necessary. We will not fight on Turk

In regard to the reports that Bull
garian troops gave no quarter to Ser

that the Serbians were merciless in re-
turn. the premier Is said TO have said:
The facts altogether disproye the
statement. When our army captured
Nish we found seventy Bulgarian SOL

Serbian hospitals. disproving the idea
that our enemies murder captives.

PHILADELPHIA, MISS, THURSDAY, JUNE IS, 1910
The GAME AND FISH
LAW

The Game and Fish. law pass
ed by the Legislature at its last
session is being assailed from
various sources, on various
grounds, and the threat is made
that the Referendum will be in
voked to nullify that much need
ed and most beneficent measure
for the protection of the game
and wild life of the State gener-
ally. 1t is not conceivable that
any considerable number of
voters, who think tor a moment
OF the value Of the wild lite of
the State, and who have read
and understood the law as it is
written, could be persuaded to
vote for the repeal Of measure
designed effectually, to protect
and preserve this valuable asset
but it remains true that the pro
visions OF this law have been
very grossly misrepresented and
an effort made to create a prer
judice against it, which ii left
uncorrected might mislead many
good citizens in opposing its en-
forcement, who, informed as to
the real merits of the measure.
would heartily approve it.
The whole propaganda for the
repeal of the law is based upon
either ali honest misconceptions
Of its motive. and provision or a
deliberate misrepresentation oil
them. The first can be readily
removed lit is hard to combaf.
the last because nothing is so
elusive and swift Of foot as false
hood. You cannot answer il be-
cause it travels in the dark and
you don't know where it has
gone or whittier it is going.
1t remains, therefore, only to
warn the friends of bird life,
and those who want to preserve
the fish and game of the State
against utter destruction to in
form themselves thoroughly as to
the provisions Of the law before
joining the ranks of its assail-
ants. This done, we feel sure
that they will not join them at
all, but become the laws defend
ers and champions. The Issue.

IN MEMORY

On the night of the 18th of
of May 1916 at 1890 o'clock the
death angel swooped silently
down and took from the arms of
his father and mother, Mr.. and
Mrs. I. H. Gresham, their only
little son. Little Norman was
the sunshine and JOY Of their
home, but through the infinite
wisdom of God. and for some
MYSTERIOUS cause he was permit
ted to brighten their home for
only two years ten months and
Twelve days. We know that
our little Norman is resting
peacefully with God awaiting
the coming OF father, mother,
and little sisters, and it is best
to bow to the will Of God and
say thy will be done. He is
waiting at the Golden Gate with
outstretched arms beckoning TO
parents and little sisters, plead
ing through his little spirit to
meet him in the peaceful realms
Of Jesus,
Little Norman was tenderly
laid to rest in the White Oak
Cemetery
A little star from as is gone,
A little jewel gwen,
A little loved one gone up
home,
A little soul in Heaven.

WASHINGTON ON
PREPAREDNESS.

George Washington, father of
our country, was firm believer
in adequate national prepared
ness, In one of his many public
speeches he said in part;
"a cannot recommend to you
10 eatnres for the fulfilment of
our duties to the rest OF the
world without again pressing up
on you The necessity Of placing
ourselves in condition of COM
plefe defense. There is a rank
due 10 the United States among
naliODs which will be upheld,
II moi absolutely lost by the rep
utatiun OF weakness. If we de-
sire 10 avoid insult we must be
able to repeal it. If We desire
10 secure peace one of the most
powerful instruments OF our
rising prosperity it must be
known that we are at all times
ready for war. !"

NEW YORK, May 2S.-The eyes of the baseball world were focused in the week just closed on the remark able record of the New York nation ais. The rejuvenated Giants, who were able to win only two out of their first fifteen games this season, now have an tmbrollen string of six teen victories and have risen from last position to second place, where they are within two games of the Brooklyn leaders.
 The responsiveness developed by the Giants leads many of their fans to hore they will not stop until they have equalled or surpassed the worlds record of twenty straight games won, made by the old Providence team in 1884. or the modern record of nineteen straight maoe by the Chicago Ameri- cans. the famous "Hitless Wonders of 1906.
 The eastern clubs, by virtue of the success of their western invasion vir- tually monopOlize the first positions of both leagues. The only exception is the Cleveland Americans. The first invasion of the west, which ended Wednesday. resulted in the eastern clubs of the National league winning thirty-five games and losing nineteen, while the eastern teams of the young CT organization won twenty eight and lost nineteen.
 Brooklyn lost the lead in the Ma tional league during the week to Phi ladelpha but holds it today as re- suit of it's donble victory over Phila- | delphia on Saturday. The three lead ing teams are so close together thai any day may bring changes. 1 The Boston Braves were unable .tt 1 split even on their western trip ant l fel. hack into fourth position by los 1 ing three straight 10 the Giants.

 NEW HURLER FANS
 SEVEN IN ONE ROW Resurrection of Thrice Beaten Pinneymen Occurs with Much Vim; Even Blowing of Trump Not Lacking on Dread Day

Sm ely. ;he millennium has come Didn't the good book say something about Gabriel blowing his horn?
 It was all there but the horn, yes- terday. The millennium On which the White ScX were resurrected, an1 Gabriel, and if one wants to be very particular. one can call what Pinney blowed horn.
 But it wasn't Gabriel that started things. It was Butler. And here's the how of it:
 The How of 1t
 The Braves had chased Godfrey in the second, Gabriel had slid off first hlsc and had famed seven straight Braves, but his second wind wasn't good and in the eighth inning the score was to n favor of the Quiros crowd. Garters (that is to say Soy supportersl had been yelling for that ''Sooc-oie lucky seventh" The G. o. L. S. netted exactly one run which didn't near satisfy.
 To repeat. the score was 6 to 3 Smiley smiled as he wound up. hurled taEtaliZing gco-goo eye-zing slow ball over and made Dick Warren pop up ;o Ole Andy Scott. Then (get set for the nows)-then, Butler dropped an easy pop fly. Cooper was safe at first. - Then. the slaughter started Gabriel came up and clouted it. Haldiman came up and clouted it. Mcclure came up and clouted it. Bush tnot his real name brt TO matter) r)-Bush came up and clOutel it. It was an extra sort of clout. giving Bush free right to third base, only he made home on an over throw. Just Co be sociable, Dunsmore came mp and clOuted it.
 That was all the clouting for the nonce. Gabe 3upplanted Smiley on the mound. Parthum spilled his long knockout of Teddy's glove and was safe. Bagley got an honest to gosh HT', that is to say. hard heaved ball in the ribs. The clou.ing was thereupon lesumeG by Warren. getting his second wallOp at it. Cooper outed by the Butler 10 Chief Louis route. bui Gabriel. for good measure. clouted. Hi, clout was good for the final run though be was oEt trying to stretcl A}tt llls
 Here thoy were Smiley and God frey. both old timers, derricked Her also were Gabriel and Cape tthe lat ier is abbreviated. because that's th' namc hes best known by and becaus he must be distinguished from hi port sided enemy.
 But the White Sox overturned th records of three or four straight de feats. and although they didn't hi worth cuss back of the deservin Air. Gabriel until almost too late. the showed they got something.
