LAKELAND WINS
FROM SANFORD
in STRONG GAME

Sanford, Aug. 3O.-Approximate-
y tired from the slaughter they put
over on the Highlanders, the Reds
were unable to travel the bases
enough to head off their opponents
and they went down in defeat 5 to 2
Saturday. 1t was plain to be seen
that Fridays game was telling on
them and they played like anything
but champions However, they did not
drop to the cellar and the battle for
the cellar ended as It began-nothing
gained, nothing lost.
Schreiber, though wild, was fairly
effective and held the Feds to four
scattered hits, he, however, almost
lost his game in the ninth when he
walked the first two men up and on
an attempted double steal. Brooks
failure to catch Palmer's peg to third
in an effort to get Green resulted in
two runs. The inning ended when
Mccullough went out, Brooks to Pal
mer.
Nick Carter, right fielder for the
locals, played good game in the
field and featured at bat for the Feds,
getting two drives out of four times
up. Burke's drive to center and Reil-
ly's hit to the pitcher were the only
other hits secured off Schneider.
Schneider, Stewart and Johnson fea-
tured at bat for the visitors, each
getting two hits out Of four times up.
Boswell was hit rather freely and was
not as effective as he usually is, but
only two out of the five runs scored
were earned and the errors behind
him were no doubt in way respon-
sible, for his losing the game. Give
"Bossy' perfect support and he is

SIZING UP THE SITUATION
POPULAR SONGS
(Times-Union.)


The Lakeland Telegram, mention
ing the movement against bad and
useless musical publication has the
right idea when declaring that sup
preston is not needed, but substitu-
ton. There is an abundance Of
beautiful, interesting instructive and
appealing music in the libraries and
in the music stores, and some new
compositions are being added all the
time that are Of value. 1t is found
that on making a program for con-
cert or recital the real musician or
singer is certain to use at least 4
portion of that music which has be-
come mellowed with age. Suppose
someone should write a song equal
to Suwannee River, or the Old Ken
lucky Home, or Silver Threads
Among the Gold" suggests the Lake
land newspaper, 1T would sweep the
country in week." Yet there have
been written, within the year, songs
equally as appealing and musically as
excellent. They are mellowing. and
will be sung hundred years from
Low with the fullest appreciation.
Contemporaneous writer's Of our
day are producing music as beautiful
and wonderful as ever composed by
Beethoven, or Chopin or Wagner, and
their manuscripts are not altogether
neglected. But they must walt Tor
general approval and be enjoyed lat
er, when the composers perhaps have
passed away. We are just beginning
to appreciate Mcdowell; and the
names Of Rachmanninoff, and Kreis-
Ter, and scores Of others are but lit
