We were forced to convey the sad
Intelligence to Eddie King that there
VS. q big straw ride pulled off We'd
ng sday night in his absence. Little
f die was sitting in the office Of the
1nessee Take It Co. with his head
IN his hands. We hated to hand out
this extra dose, as it seems that Ed
die was staggering under about as
Tile load as he could carry, after the
r. zabethton trip. Eddie Sid that
hs could not understand why they
couldn't of had this ride on Thurs
day night. We can't either, Eddie,
ur ess there has been something put
yvar on us while you were away that
has changed the complexion Of af-
fairs. Son if you can hards out q
two Dagger this afternoon, We pre-
diet that they via put on an extra
straw ride for your benefit.

lligh and Handsome was wearing
his usual smile on hi sreturn from
Elizabothton,. when interview ed at
The Mason Corner, but had substitute
ed the loudest creation, in the way
Of d shirt, that it has been cur pleas
ure TO be dazzled by for some time
for the pink one spoken of in the col
umns last week. HIS excuse for
wearing this shirt was that no had
igured that the bizarre pisttern would
listfact any curious one who might
venture a question in regard to how
II happened In Elizabethton. We
.hink this boy had the right dope, fol
he first thing that popped into our
mead was that Hi had been playing
some bargain counter insta2l OF bal
while away on this last "trip.
Those Of you who missed Friday's
game should have been ou. The
came started off full Of pep, both on
Che playing field ard in the grand
stand, and our boys would not be de-
nied. They hit the ball hard and
often and their fielding was RIGHT III
% the league stuff. Johnson City
lad their Premier hurler IN the box,
5ut he seensd to DO handing out the
| ind Of stuff that our boys Ike. We
| viii make no particular mention Of
Inc hitting of any one, but will say
hat they all seemed To be there when
| hit was Needed OF course we won
| he game, but our fans say that d
title thing ike winning Is Just Incl
lental; that they 60 to the games to
support the team and because they
,eliava that the team is giving the
Test they have. The exhibition put
10 yesterday was most interesting
CON d spectators standpoint ard the
foHd was well UP TO the average
After taking ia the game yesterday,
surrounded by a galaxy Of feminine
ielight and attracting the envious
yes Of some Of the less fortunate,
We strolled down on MasDn's Cor
Ter to hear the talk and to get line
what might be going on. We were
ably disappointed as our Chief In
sormar Eddie King, was not ia be
found We gathered that Eddie,
lfter his pulling down that hard line
rive in right field and getting hits
s Of old, had summed up enough
ourage to again invade the staeet
hat runs parallel to Depot, one block
Worth, and IVES probably basking, in
he light Of Oriental eyes, which
would light up at the mention Of the
aart played by Little Eddie in slays
ng the Giant hurler from Johnson
gity.

We also noticed last night that
sefty Bishop was again imbibing of
ne freedom of the city, and was
sading pretty damsel along the
White way Of our fair city. Boys, we
nov that you feel like making hay
vhile the sun shines, hut don't get
he idea into your heads that our
girls will only stand for you when
you win. We have talked it over
with them, and find that they are ais
oval as the rest Of the bunch, and say
Don't fail 70 hear Gov. Rob
arfs speak here Tuesday, raorra-
