The preliminary trial Of Louis Por-
ter, colored, charged with the murder
Of one Of his race. Robert Riley. was
held the past week before Judge T
n Cummings Of The Justices court.
and as a result Of the testimony
brought out az the trial, Porter was
bound over % the circuit court with
out the benefit Of bail Several wit
nesses were examined and their testi-
mony all corroborated the facts in
the case and Judge Cummings decided
that it was a case for the higher
tribunal to handle.
The killing occurred on the 18th.
of August, and it resulted from an
alteration which started between
the two men in a spirit Of fun. Riley
was killed with q hay fork, beslg
struck on the head from behind his
assailant He was knocked uncon-
scious and soon died from the terrific
blow. The killing occurred on the place

CARROLLTON LOSES
TO QUEEN CITY
GREAT GAME WITNESSED
BY LARGEST CROWD
OF SEASON
PITCHERS BATTLE
Score Two TO 0ne-Bitterly
Fought All the Way
Through.

They came loaded and they went
away unloaded.
The third game in the series of
games between Carrollton and Co
lunbus occurred here on the Barrow
grounds last Wednesday afternoon.
1t was estimated that thirty-five
hundred people saw it. The stores
closed at 4:30 in honor of the event
and everybody was there. Carrollton
had already defeated Columbus twice,
once here and again down there and
the local rooters were determined to
get even if it was possible, and it was
possible. Both teams imported bat
teries and strengthened their inhelds.
Carrollton pitched Eddoney, said to
be from the South Atlantic League,
and he was caught by DELANEY, re-
Gently with Memphis, but sold to At
lanta. Columbus used Reeves of the
City League in Birmingham with
Butler from Meridian doing the re-
ceiving. Roberts, of the New Or
leans club was in reserve for Co
lumbus, playing right field.
1t was really a pitchers battle
with Reeves having shade the bet
ter of the argument, Eddoney yield
ing 5 bingles and Reeves 4. Car
rollton's team played better ball than
did the Columbus team, the dope
sheet showing Z errors for Columbus
and only two for Carrolton, Wells
is credited with tive OF these nauffs
two hard line drive flies. He came
hack soon after by catching a hard
f1y in left and then made wonder
ful throw to first, cutting off Kill
patrick before he could recover the
has. THIS plsy sily sased the
game, as the Columbus infield was
crumbling under the strain and they
were after Reeves.
Columbus got one run in the first
Mitchell hit for one base, stole sec
ond and took third on Wells hit.
Wells started for second and the
CarroAton catcher threw to second.
McKinstry caught Wells fifteen feet
from the bag and Wells beat it for
first again with McKinstry close be-
hind In the race Mitchell scored from
third. Columbus only other talley
came in the fourth. Roberts smashed
the ball clean over into the auto
mobile section of right field. Slight
ly lame he took only three bags on
the drive. 1t would have been
homer but for his lameness. Luder

DIVELBISS GETS
CHAMPION BELT
CarrOlltOn Fans Award Umpire
Championship Belt to
Columbian.

After careful and prayerful con-
sideration the fans at Carrollton have
come to the conclusion that Mr.. l..
B. Divelbliss, umpire of this city, is
entitled to the umpire championship
belt.
Notification of the award came in
letter from Mr. Clayton C. Cox, of
Carrollton to Chief of Police Glover
yesterday aild the belt arrived by
Parcel Post and was presented to Mr..
Divelbliss at the office of President
Kuykendall of the city league yester-
day morning at 1915 o'clock.
The presentation was made by Mr..
R. E. Johnston.
In response to the award to Mr..
Divelbliss the fans here have decided
to recognize and reward the master
umpiring qualities of Mr.. Norwood,
who proved himself highly efficient
loyal and fearless hn looking after
the interests of the home club.
The award to him will be an Iron
Cross which the blacksmith in this
city is making 1t will be a token of
valuable service rendered on August
11th., 1919, on the field of battle"
The scene at the unfrocking Of
Umpire Norwood of the championship
belt in Carrollton is described as pa
thetic. 1t occurred at the county court
house, is it said, and the wrath Of the
fans was heaped upon his Royal
Umps for having allowed himself to
be robbed of the throne to which he
had ascended with natural grace and
popular acclaim.
The pirate fans clipped the buttons
from his frock and literally ripped
the belt from his waist. They were
enraged for he had worn it ldrrg and
worthily, and he had served them
faithfully and unfailingly on every
occasion.
The belt is worn and ragged from
long use, showing that Mr.. Norwood
had lsorll il wcrtnily for . ioD.. tisIie.
The belt was tied with dainty pink
ribbon and bore a card with the word
ing, John Norwood, ex-champion."
Following is the correspondence
covering the prize award negotiations:

Chief of Police,
Columbus, Miss.
Dear Chief:

Post ex-umpire John Norwood's belt,
which please present to L. b. Divel-
bliss, After the game Wednesday we
feel certain that Divelbliss is entitled
to wear the belt. Thanking you in ad-
vance for this favor, | remain,
Respectfully,
Clayton C. Cox.

Campaign For
Better Health
Health Board Says Sanitation In
City Is InamicaI to Health.

City Board of Health officials have
found sanitary conditions in the
city anything but satisfactory and as
a result of. their investigations a
drive will be launched Immediately
for better sanitation.
The board is composed Of DR. Ed
ward Lehmberg as chairman and
Messrs. T. W Lewis and S. L. Caine.
Conditions are such as to warrant
the application of strenuous and ef-
fective methods to improve the con-
ditions which are inimical to the
health Of the people Of the city, and
must be remedied, the officials de-
clare.
II is stated that hogs and cows
and other domestic animals are being
kept IN the city in violation of the
city ordinances regulating the care
of stock Of this kind.
City ordinances require that pig
pens be kept absolutely dry, as well
as lots in which cows are kept. If
there is objection no pig pen may be
kept within 100 feet Of the home of
a neighbor.
Property owners and landlords are
required and urged to drain bitches
AAd holes of water, and to fill or
screen open wells. Later inspection
will be made Of cafes, meat markets,
grocery stores and all places where
edibles are sold.
Every precaution VIII be taken by
the city health authorities to safe
guard the health Of the community
and the cooperation Of all citizens
s earnestly solicited in the work.
