GAME At Y. NJ. C. A.
SENIOR LEAGUE OPENED LAST
NIGHT WITH COUPLE OF BEST
GAMES WITNESSED IN MANY
SEASONS.

The Y. M. c.. A. senior basketball
league opened last night with two
of the best and most spirited games
in many years. The Smiths and
Langfords locked horns in the first
game and in nip and tuck battle
the Smiths team came out the win

scored the majority of the points for
his crew of victors while Langford
and McVoy were the main point get
ters for the losers.
The second game, between the High

to be the fastest game. High School
managed to nose out the Sporting
Goods Dealers bunch just before the
whistle blew. The final score was Is
to Il. Herschkovitz was the main
stay of the High School, scoring IL of
the Is points made. Axelson used
his height to good advantage by drop

HERE YESTERDAY LOOKING
AFTER STEAMBOATS,.

Captains Luderus and Bean, from
Mobile, inspectors of steamboat hulls
and boilers, were in the city yester-
day and inspected several vessels at
Pensacola, finding no fault with any
of them. 1t was stated all the
steamers which they looked over
were given a good bill, and will con-
tinue in service.
These two officials succeeded to
the offices filled for many years by
Captains Taylor and O'Brien, who
made periodical trips to Pensacola
and otker ports in their district for a
number of years. The older in
spectors were said to have become
too feeble to further carry on the
duties of the office, and were al
loved to resign, one of the aged in
spectors dying shortly afterward.

HENRY TAYLOR WAS
SERIOUSLY HURT BY
A FALLING TREE
KLONDYKE MAN UGHT
FROM COUNTRY SUFFERING
FROM NUMBER OF SERIOUS,
POSSIBLY FATAL INJURIES.

Henry Taylor, IS years of age, re-
siding near Klondyke, was brought
to the city last night suffering from
number of very serious injuries,
and was taken to the Pensacola hos
pital. One leg was broken, his face
badly lacerated, and suffered in
juries on various parts of his body,
as well as what are feared internal
injuries which may prove fatal.
Up to a late hour he was resting
as well as, under the circumstances,
it could be expected, but his adj
vanced age is believed will initiate
against at least his very rapid recov-
cry.
Thomas Bailey and Charles Tay-
lor, the latter a son of the aged
victim, hurried Mr.. Taylor to the
city and quickly had him placed in
the hospital for treatment. Mr..
Bailey, in telling how the aged suf-
ferer was injured, stated that Mr..
Taylor, with a number of others,
were chopping down trees about
three miles from Klondyke proper,
and that one tree which started to
fall, caught up in the fork of anoth-
er one which was standing near by.
Attempting to dislodge the tree
which he had chopped down, Mr..
Taylor went to it too soon, for its
own weight appeared to have work
ed it free, and it kicked back and fell
with a crash, catching the aged
man under it.
Those who were nearby thought
he had been killed, but rushed to his
assistance as speedily as possible,
and then set about to render him
aid when it was discovered that he
had not suffered fatally.
