"Henderson's first case of typhoid

that the germs on the disease were
contracted in Warren county, as this
child lives in the sanitary sewerage

The moment King Baseball plops

Base hits were plentiful in the
Savannah, Georgia baseball park
last Thursday afternoon as the
South Atlantic league team dropped
a 1913 decision to the Cincinnati
Reds. But the home town fans
were not entirely disappointed. AS
the crowd surged from the field
the name of Bob Elliott was on
every tonge.
The big Savannah Outfielder,
who first played on the Ell Cen
tro sandlots, smacked out a home
run in the first inning off the
slants of Schott, and then sin
gle and double before the game
ended.
To top off the days performance
Elliott accepted two fielding chan
ces and robbed Ernie Lombardi of
hit with a sparkling fielding
play in the eighth stanza.
Georgia sports writers pick Bob
as the outstanding outfielder in the
loop and predict he will lead the
league IN nltClnS.
If he continues to play the
brand of ball he has. shown in
practice games Bob will be in the
Pittsburgh Pirate camp before
the end of the season.
The Pacific Coast baseball race
has already developed into the
most hotly contested in recent years
and unless hard luck hits one OF
the clubs the 1887 pennant fight
should be the most interesting in
history.
San Diego, Seattle and Sacra-
mento appear to be the strongest
clubs at the present time but Los
Angeles, San Francisco and the
Missions will be in the fight be-
fore it is ali over.
Portland and Oakland are the
weak sisters of the loop thus fal
but may pull out of their slumps

anced team in the league and the

Chaplin. Ward, Craghead, He
bert, Salyo, Pillette and Shellen-
