FALSE REPORT OF GAME.
Editor News:

Editor News:
The South Pittsburg Hustler
contained false report of the
game played at Jasper Friday,
August 18th. between the Marion
County High School and Seq lat-
chic. 1t was reported as a
glorious win for Marion High,
when in reality it was not a COM
plete game. In the beginning of
the 9th inning Marion High made
two runs, Gamble driving the ball
on a hop over the fence into a lot
of weeds. losing it. Immediate
ly afterwards the enrira Marion
High team left the grounds
claiming that they had to catch a
train. The game had been set
for 500 bIr they fooled around
and il was not called until $50.
The South Pittsburg report shows
a full nine inning game played,
with Marion High scoring one
run in every inning except the
LIST and End. The truth of it is
that they scored three runs in 3rd
and one in 4th, and owing to Sc
quatchie not having its inning in
9th the two runs made by Marion
High in that inning cannot be
counted, which would make the
score 4 to l for the five even in
nings. The Sequatchie team was
not licked by any means for by
rights there were still four more
innings to play, train or no train
The score was kept by Prof.
Hackworth, and was kept correct
ly, while that forwarded to the
Hustler was not correct.

AEoUKT PER ACRE.

Four 20 eight bushels of Grim
son clover seed per acre is not an
unusual yield. At present prices
and at the prices for several years
this meansa money value for seed
of from $40 to $50 per acre. 1t is
therefore. a good money crop for
any section that will cooperate to
the extent of securing the huller
and other machinery to handle
the crop. At least every farmer
should save his own seed.-The

FIND 20 INDIAN SKELETONS
Suppositon That They Were Buried
Near Where They Fell
in Battle.

Oregon City, Ore While eXCavating
for a basement near the river bank
men employed by Frank Busch have
uncovered 20 skeletons of Indians in
one hole.
The bodies are supposed to be the
remains of Indians killed in battle, for
in one or two cases arrow heads have
been found caught between the bones
The first trace of the bones was
found early in the week when the
workmen uncovered a skull It was
buried by itself and Mr. Busch, who
has studied the find carefully, believes
that it belonged to a chief or leader
To prevent disturbing the bones the
workmen began eXcavating in another
place and they found hole with a
radius of about six feet which Mr.
Busch estimates contains the bones
Of at least twenty Indians The skele.
tons are lying like the spokes Of a
wheel with the skulls in the center
Over the top of the grave was a thick
hard crust of baked clay that wa
hardened like stone.
