Brunswick Residence
Lifted Bodily by Wind;
Occupants Are Unhurt

BRUNSWICK, Ca, Aug. &c. =
Tearing it's way through Brunswick
at a velocity of more than rs miles
per hour, the wind storm last night
lifted one house from its foundation
and carried it some distance before
depositing it gently on the grouna
without injuring it's occupants. An
other house was burned after bolt
Of lightning had struck it, It's &C.
cupants narrowly made their escape.
The home of p. A. Poulson, located
on Gloucester street, now sets on a
lot which the owner OF the house
has not yet purchased. Lifted from
it's pillars, the occupants of the
house rode through the air for some
distance. Mr.. and Mrs. Poulson, oc-
cupying one room, and their two
children another, were awakened by
the movement of their dwelling
which resembled an earthquake
tremor.
Glass windows in the National
bank, and several stores along
Brunswick main business street
were shattered.
So far as could be ascertained this
morning, no one was injured in the
storm here.

Prices Are Going Up

EOR several years the national papers and maya
i zines have been fighting hard for Southern
subscribers In the fierce competition for circula-
ton in Dixie they have been cutting their prices
away below the cost of mailing out their periodicals.
AS result, our readers have been able to get
the cream of the periodicals through Tri-Weekly
Journal clubs at rdiculouSly low cost.
That bitter competition is about to be replaced
by Saner and sounder business methods on the part
of those publishers. SO clubbing prices are 60
ing up
You will always be able to get clubs through
us as cheaply as from any other publication-bu
we will have to increase prices on all comb
nations on October 4.
Subscribe now and save money. If your sub
Scription expires within the next six months it will
pay you to renew now if you want clubbing COM
binations.
We have the other publishers tied up with con-
tracts till October T. They can't raise their prices
to US before that date. Until then you can get
any OF the combinations listed on Page at the
remarkable bargain prices which have been in force
since January 4. But the price of every one of
them Will 90 up in little over thirty days
Don't wait till it is too late. Act now.

Mosaic Disease Beaten,
Dry Weather Hurts Cane

MOULTRIE, Ga. Aug. 26.-The
mosaic disease, which greatly dam
aged the cane crop in south Georgia
two years ago has practically been
stamped out, according to farm OBJ
servers here. The cane crop, how
ever, has been seriously damaged by
the dry weather that has prevailed
during the past month. Unless it
rains within the next few days, the
syrup production will be smaller
than it has been in a number of
years, it is stated.

French Object
To Diving" Style
Jumping by Americans

Boston. May S0.-(By A. P.)-Steps
to eliminate the diving" or so-called

Olympic team as a result of its recent
protest by French athletic officials,

of College Trask Coaches at its annual
meeting.
This type OF jumping, whose expo
nents include such stars as Harold Os-
borne. worlds indoor record-holder,
and D. v. Alberts, both of Chicago, has
been subject of controversy for some
time. Recently it resulted In formal
action by France to have the council
of the international Olympic commit

1t was Indicated the protest would not
be sustained. American coaches feel
that every effort should be made to
avoid eleventh hour disputes which
would hamper the chances Of Yankee
victory at Paris.

BissOnette Would

Lewiston, May 29.-Del Bissonette,
Lewiston's greatest first sacker since
the days of Joe Judge, may be wearing
a local uniform again this summer
Del has written Manager Pat French
that he has had enough of the New
York-Pennsylvania League, and is ask
ing for his release. He has asked for
Lewiston's terms, and has also sent a
query to DiXfield. Bissonette has been
pitching for York, Pa, but his arm is
not the old whip of yore, he says.
There is little chance for him at first
base at York, for the present first
sacker is going great guns. Bisson-
cite at first would complete one Of the
finest inner defences Lewiston-Auburn
ever boosted, with Gaudette, Murphy
and Brisk in the other berths. Bisso-
nette was one of the most popular
players of the Star Taxis.

PITTSFIELD
Memorial Day At PittsfieId

Memorial Day was fittingly observ-
ed at Pittsfield the exercises of the
day being under the auspices of the
o. s. Haskell Camp, Sons of Veter-
ans.
A procession was formed at the
Grand Army Hall at noon and at one
o'clock proceeded to the village ceme-
terry where the graves of the SOL
diers and sailors were appropriately
decorated and fitting exercises held.
The procession was headed by the
Pittsfield Band which made a very
pleasing appearance in their new
uniforms. Next came the Sons of
Veterans, then the World War vet
Grams and the Pittsfield Fire Depart
ment in their dress uniforms. Then
came the few members of the war
Of 1S61-65. the Sons OF Veterans Aux
Hilary and the members Of the Relief
Corps and the d. A. II. in automo-
biles. On the return from the ceme-
terry a halt was made at the Soldiers
monument where brief exercises were
held.
The procession then proceeded to
Union Hall where the address of the
day was given by Robert Cony of
Augusta. a large audience was
present at the hall and listened with

Championships may come and
championships may go but the first
game of the inter-city series between
Gardiner and Cony promises to &C.
lipse them all as far as real in
terest Is concerned. For the past
decade shouting fans have become
hoarse at these games and, If all
indications hold true, those who ar
rive at Williams field after 230 this
afternoon will be compelled to view
the game from an upright position.
For the past four years the wear
ers OF the Orange and Black have
journeyed to this city and gone home
on the short end of the series-but
the fast and husky Don Brennan was
holding down the mound in the ma
5ority of those cases. This year Gar
diner seems to be the favorite to COP
the series. for the Cony outfit has
one lone veteran. However the in
tense rivalry between these teams
and the indomitable spirit of these
teams when opposed to each other
forbids a sure thing for either team,
Captain Jim Davidson of Gardiner
will probably send up his famous
bends to the Red and White sphere
artists and just what the locals will
do to these slants is a matter of
conjecture. The boys from the hill
say that they will send the visitors
back to their city with something
bitter to think about but confidence
reigns In the down river camp. TAX
ing all things seriously, 1t seems that
on Davidson hinges Gardeners fate.
Followers of the sport will agree that
when Captain Jim fails to go on the
mound Gardiner fails to win.
These games are really the best
games Of the season and rival the
Harvard Yale games in interest to
the locals. The locals, with a
straight run of four years series
will play ball and hope to drive da-
wilson from his reputation. Cow
had a vigorous workout yesterday
and Coach Thompson pronounced
them fit for battle. 1t is the plan
OF the locals to wait for the breaks
and grab he latter when they an
pear. Whichever way the battle ends
1t Is certain that a record crowd will
gather and cheer their favorites in
the first of the nter-city schoolboy
classics at Williams field at 2.30 this
afternoon.
