THE DROUTH BECOMING SERI.
GUS MATTER. +.

This has been one of the most
trying times of the season on grow
ing vegetables, as the sun has been
scorching hot for weeks and very
little rain has fallen to relieve the
situation. The tobacco crop is be-
ing cut down every day and the dry
weather continues. One conservative
farmer stated he considered his to-
bacco crop cut at least ten per cent.
the past week.
Even the gardens have dried up and
farmers who own hundreds Of acres
of land were in town buying green
beans from the grocers and quite a
number are buying potatoes as they
did in the winter season. Stock WI
ter is becoming very scarce in many
localities, and the grass in pastures
is literally burned brown.
Farmers say the corn crop is cut
in half, the question Of whether Ut
not to prepare winter stock is con-
fronting them, and they are not
looking to the future any too hope
fully.

Baseball fans groaned in despair
Sunday afternoon, when after the
game between the Paris Ruggles
team and the Newport Pelicans had
been tied, the Pelicans landed on
Comparoni's delivery in the last half
of the ninth inning, and slugged their
way to to victory. Both teams
registered zero until the third in
ming, when the Pelicans pulled three
runs across the rubber and set the
fans nerves on edge. In the sixth
Paris rallied and came through with
three runs, two men being on bases
when a long hit by Burnett scored
all three, tieing the score.
The fans hoped in vain for slug
fest to- come to the aid of the home
team, but nothing happened until
the Pelicans' half of the last inning
when they sewed the game up tightly
by heavy hitting. One of the fea-
lures of the game was long run
ming catch of a hard hit fly by OUT
fielder "Tap" Mcfarland, for the
Paris team. Hinlinger, the Pelicans'
twirler, held the opposing teams
hits scattered. Comparoni twirled a
good game and deserved better sup
port. The batteries were: Paris
Ruggles, Comparoni, Bergman and
Goodman; Newport, Hinlinger and
Jacquard. Attendance, 1000; UNI
pires, McDermott and Neal. The
score by innings:
Newport. .. -. .003 900 005-S

The Ruggles team has booked a
game for next Sunday afternoon,
July 81, with the Falmouth team,
said to be very strong amateur
team The game will be called
promtly at three o'clock. Paris will
be considerably strengthened for
this game, and the fans will get
good run for their money.
The PRESBYTERIAN baseball club and
the Christian church club will cross
bats at the Second street park at

WALLIS GIVES ALIENS THRILL
ING SENSATION

Tom Underwood, in his column,
Daily Jots," in the Daily Kentucky
New Era, Hopkinsville, reprints q
story from the New York World
about a stunt Commissioner Fred
erick A Wallis, formerly of Paris,
introduced at Ellis Island. The story
mentions the struggles of immi-
grants with American food which
came to climax in the serving Of
IL, 900 plates of ice cream. The ar
ticle says:
1.-The idea behind the ice cream
was to give the immigrants a real
treat on their reaching the land of
promise.
What happened was marvel
to witness. The first persons served
were a Balkan native and a negro
from East India. He looked around
and saw that the Balkan opposite
him had bigger piece. Greedily
he grabbed for it. Then the fight
began. Both were we'll smeared in
the face with the food.
1.-The other diners touched the ice
cream and finding it cold, thought
they knew the trick. The stunt
was to smear the cold substance on
your neighbours face. This hap
pened several times. Then some
one tasted the ice cream and with
a whoop announced it was mama
too precious to be wasted on coun
tenances. The head steward said
the same thing in eight languages
he speaks. The face-smearing ceas-
ed abruptly.
But the final experiment was yet
to be made. The real genius of the
meal took up his knife and piece
of bread and spread the new butter
tenderly over it. He started the
fashion with bang and all the rest
enjoyed the ice cream that way"

But the trials were not held, because
the blooming hounds took off after

shifting and stamping around, and not
