"0LD sPAV" LEAGUE NOTES

A double play Tuesday put out the
Jensen family all t. once.
One of Hepburn's fingernails got
Disguised and left the game Tues
day.
Link WATSON is strictly neutral in
his rooting-his battery is always
trained against the umpire.
A number of the Caterpillars en-
deared (?) themselves to the Boost
ers Friday by roofing for the Hoosi-
ers.
Sammy Nelson should have left
the dough from Tuesdays baking on
his hands when he went in a short
stop that evening.
Capt. Anderson has polled out two
regulation home run drives this sea-
son, and both times has managed to
reach first base safely.
One can't become TOO ambitious
in this league. Haugan was called
out Friday for trying to reach third
before he touched first.
Link WATSON said it was rotten
luck" that lost the Crests Tuesdays
game. So there you have it, gentle
men, the final, expert verdict.
The warden of Saltwater prison
has invited the League to send up a
team again this year. No, there will
be no return game played here.
There's this similarity between our
league and the Majors-both have
been forced to postpone lots of
games this season on account of rain.
A number have remarked that the
exhibitions are we'll worth the price
of admission. Beware, fattery oft
has ruined the promise of brilliant
career.
Frank Moser, White Crest, is new
to baseball, but he showed up like {
veteran in Tuesdays game. (Franl
recently subscribed for this paper
hence the kind words.)
After few more games the
League players will be in condition
to tackle the Kinnickinnic or Clifton
farmers teams. But those farmers
dol gon 'em, can sure slug the pill.
Capt. AL. Anderson's dreams of
1000 season went bling Friday even
ing. And Andy turned on the alarm
clock when he missed three cas-,
chances in a row in the third inning
AL. Jensen didn't prove as effectiv,
as was generally expected on his frs
appearance in the box Tuesday. Blu
how could he, with the whole o.
Wisconsin" on his bosom. (Wors'
jokes have been sprung. but we cam
prove 1C.
There has been much conjecture al
to what Twig Healey, then pitching
said to his shortstop during a whis
pered conference that delayed the
game some five minutes. But is il
generally agreed that he forgot his
grammar when the next ball pitched
was lined out for neat single.
Two or three women have appear.
ed at the games without their Gro.
cheting, and by visiting about at the
different cars, have annoyed others
at their work. This must be pre-.
vented at any cost, as the manage
ment aims to have every patron leave
with happy recollections and the
wish to come again.

FIVE YEAR Sentence
GIVEN EzZARD NEGRO

Rapid progress was made this week
in the prosecution of land fraud
cases which have peen worrying
property owners OF Cobb County for
some time.
Alexander Ezzard, the negro who
was arrested on June 9th on a charge
of forgery, was indicted Monday July
II and tried last Monday. Ezzard
had titles to many acres of land to
which it was alleged titles had been
forged. Witnesses from every sec
ton Of Cobb county, Atlanta and 9TH
pIaces were brought here to tes-
tify and Ezzard was found guilty.
He was sentenced to five years in the
penitentiary by Judge Patterson
without the alternative of paying a
fine. EZZard had been held under
five thousand dollars bond since his
arrest.
L. P. WeatneEs, white man, who
was indicted by the Grand Jury last
week was indicted again on three
counts Wednesday and will be tried
Thursday. The charges against
Weathers are also in connection with
land frauds and while it is said that
others will probably be arrested on
similar charges, no information can
be published that would lead to
their possible escape.

MARIETTA AGAIN SPLITS EVEN

In two games at Canton on last
Friday and Saturday the local base
ball team split even, losing the first
by a score of II and winning the
last 4-3.
The first game was featured by
the pitching of Rucker for Canton.
He allowed only three hits and had
Marietta at his mercy throughout.
The entire Canton team hit Murphy
hard and this coupled with his wild
ness was responsible for the large
score.
The second game was a weird one.
To begin with the field at $3.50 was
covered with water; two feet deep
at first base. Canton with Dobbs to
pitch for them figured they could
easily take this game and make it
three out of four So anxious were
they to play that they first had the
water swept off and then proceeded
to dry the field by burning gasoline
and this selling at thirty cents
gallon. The game tho. was hum
dinger' from start to finish. Canton
scored first in the second inning,
Oliver getting home run. Marietta
tied it up in the fourth when Haw-
kins scored from third on a fly to
center field. With the score l and /
the game rocked along for seven in
nings, Senter and Dobbs both pitch
ing magnificent ball, but the former
having the edge In Mariettas half
of the eighth Senter came thru with
hit. McLain running for him was
advanced by a beautiful bunt laid
down by Montague Spurlock scored
him by a clean single and went to
second on the throw in. Morris then
hit one down the third base line,
which was errored and Spurlock scor-
ed. The next inning was marked by
a hit of McLains which cleared the
center field fence. In the last half
Of the ninth Canton made a desper-
ate attempt to tie the score and
came pretty near succeeding. With
Johnson on first oliver knocked his
second home run. Their rally ended
when Rudasil made three weak
swings at Senter's fast ones Mari
etta's infield played beautiful ball

that Col. Fred Morris, leading coun-

ulSg6rS anu explorers nave .IOJII(I, SHOW us
precisely the same difference in sexes that we
now see
No tribe Of human beings has ever been
discovered where the spheres Of action for
men and women were the same.
There is ARRAYS a difference; and it is q
difference which Nature seems to have sug-
gested, and to which the women seem to nat
urally adapt themselves
just as that difference was seen among the
lowest and highest Indians and among the
hardly human natives Of Australia, so it was
seen IN the Hottest development Of all civii-
cations, Oriental and Occidental.
No matter how different one social and
political system may be from another, the
status of the man and the woman has ever
been substantially the same, throughout the
ages.
Vary it as YOU will, the fact looms up that
WoD>Gn IS tie Ie2pm1ct z2Mdc for the Han.
Whether she totes the papoose, and the tent
pole for the Red Chief; or whether she is
mistress Of the slaves in q Grecian palace; or
whether she is the companion of the Arab in
the desert; or whether she is the fascinating
social star of the twentieth century, she nat
ura17y takes the secondary place
If she ever finds happiness at all, she finds
it right there.
Not until social, political, and industrial
does Womanhood become restless discon-
tented, insurgent, and m2anniSh.
General Toombs-possibly the greatest
lawyer and statesman we ever had--used to
break out into tempest Of wrath when he
spoke of the millions Of ''saVages' whom the
Republicans had endowed with the ballot.
It was horrible crime against civilization,
and civilization will never recover from the
effects.
The brain of the typical black cannot grasp
the real meaning Of his vote, nor of the po-
Gtical system in which he lives.
To the average negro, the ballot is some
thing to trade either for money, or for Office.
San Domingo, Hayti, and Liberia show
what the negro really is, when allowed to do
as he pleases.
Now, think Of the additional injury to orr
civilization that would necessarily come from
giving the ballot, to negro women. 1t is
fearful to contemplate.
Talk about 'educating' these negro women
into an appreciation Of the ballot? How
incredible!
To add millions of black women to the cleo
torate, would simply mean that votc-buyers
would get enormous increase of power to de-
bauch the legislation of the country.
Again, the Roman Catholic priest must be
considered: do we want to vastly increase his
power?
In Milwaukee, Father RedIp Shadbelly
pranced to the polls, with a long train of
Catholic ladies behind him; and Father
Redlip never took his mastery eyes OF those
obedient ladies, until they had all voted
