The first grame of the season on the ocal diamond was a distinct disap pointment to Newberry rooters, not )nlv because the scarlet and gray -was hut out on its own ground, but be eause the game was almost entirely without interesting features. Neith r 'team was fast, though there was some good individual work. There was no brilliant playing. Newberry was simply less fortunate than' Ers kine. Crouch pitched a good -game, though he found it'hard sometimes to control the ball and was not at his best. He gave only three of the Se ceders the base on balls, but unfor tuiately twio of these were in the see ond inning, and in the same inning he hit another batter, putting three on bases. During the whole game ,Ers kine made only eight hit- as against Newberry's sevenj *but unfortunately for Newberry they were binched in the fateful inning and three runs scored, while Newberry's hits were scattered. By Innings. Newberry came to the bat and Cab aniss led off with a hot one 'to Cashion who put"the ball'to first. "Owen gave short stop the same opportunity and he accepted it. -Boozer camne up, with two hands out and ent, a -clean two bagger into the left, reching third on a wild pitch. 'Crod:h also hit the balf but the third baseraiai"threy 'him out at first and Boozer failed to score. Erskine lined up with Kirkpatrick leading off with a grounder- to Owen, who threw him out at first. Brownlee sent a fly to Parks' who - failed to reach it. Wideman gave Parks an other chance, and he fielded the ball promptly but too late - to catch Brownlee - on 'second. Long 'hit to Owen, who stopped Br6wnles's course at third. P'ressly, J. Vgave Busby a chance to throw him out at fist-, side out. Second Inning. Sery led off with a two bagger for Newberry; Wessinger sent het one to Cashion, but wa's thi-owa out at first. Parks sti-uek ouit.' Busby struck too short, the ball 'was- fumbled and Busby made first and." Seurry third. Unfortunately Hoover sent the ball way up in: the- air* and the see ond baseman 'gathered him -in, to Surry's disappointment.''4 . For Erskine, Stevensdn faced the ball, but Crouch made him 'a pr-esent of first. Bushy took in H. E. Pr'ss ley s5 'fly. Robinson wa's hit' by the all and went to first whl Steveni sn walked"down to second.' Cushin came to thi bat, but Crouch failed to get the ball over the plate and three Erskinites had a walking match, fill ing the bases. Kirkpatrick di-ove a two bagger out betweeri left and ben ter briniging two men home: Brownlee. brought Cashion home, and Kirkpat rik was caught on third. Third Inninig. Cabaniss earned his first by a good hit, but was in too big a hurry to reach second whiere he was caught. Owen gave center a long easy fly, and Boozer had the . unusual. experience of having a hole in his bat. Erskine wasted no time in 'giving Newberry another chance. Long, J. P. Pressly and Stevenson' sent flies to Cabaniss, Scurry and Busby. - Fourth Inning. Early in this inning; Newberry fans were hopeful, with reason. Crouch got his base on balls; Seurry sent a hot one to short, winning his first and sending Crouch to second. Wessinger made a good hit to left, filling the bases. Parks hit the ball ken with reference to the delegates to the State Reunion to be held in Co lumbia the middle of May.. The following are the delegates elected to the State Reunion, the first twelve being principals and the oth ers alternates: Y. J. Pope, J. .Cal. Neel, 0. L. Schumpert, S. Pope, G. F. Long, G. W. Pearson, D. A. Dickert, M. H. Buzhardt, A. Singleton, J. 5. Ruff, W. G. Peterson, J. C. Wilson, H. C. Wilson, W. H. Jones, W. T. Tarrant, W. F. Koon, A. P. Pifer, Jas. Mc rntosh, J. L. Hunter, G. B. Aull, P. MI. Hawkins, J. N. Bass, J. 0. Koon, A. J. Livingston, N. H. .Young, R. I. Stoudenmire, L. S. Bowers. Miss Gussie Dickert, daughter of Col. D. A. Dickert, was elected spon sor for Jas. D.

There willi be ainothe'meeting .of' he camp on memorial day. forcing the men around and Busby, who was running for Crouch was caught at home. Hoover struck out, with three still on the bases. Caba niss took the bat, the ball was driven to short aind fumbled, so that Scur rv came in and Wessinger got to see ond. Just then the discovery was made that Cabaniss had batted out of turn. The mistake had occurred by Busby being a base runner for Crouch and the fact not being noticed when Hoover came to the bat. Erskine's H. E. Pressly was giv ei first on balls, Robinson hit to short and Pressly was thrown out at second. Cashion made a hit. Kirk patrick also connected with the ball and Robinson came home. Brownlee hit to Owen and was thrown out at first, and Wideman struck out. Fifth Inning. For Newberry, Cabaniss, Owen and Boozer all reached the ball, but not for safe, and were thrown out at first in one , two, three order. And again Erskine failed to socre. Sixth Inning. Crouch went out, on a foul fly, Scurry struck out, and Wessinger was thrown out at first. For Erskine, Cashion sent a fly to Owen, Kirkpat rick gave him a grounder, that was easily fielded, and Brownlee struek out. Seventh Inning. .Par s struck out, Busby sent an easy fly~to center, while Hoover gave the bal from his bat to pitcher, Ers kine' followed Newberry s example and put ohly. three men to the bat, -Wideman giving a fly to left, Long s.ending his to Crouch -and J. P. Pressly giving Hoover a chance to put the side out, which was accepted. Eighth Inning. Newberry again -sent only three men to the bat. Cabaniss was thrown out at first; Owen gave center a fly; Boozer made a good hit but was thrown out at first in an attempt to steal off to second. Erskine's first two, Stevenson and H. E. Pressly struck out. Robinson made first, but Cashion sent a fly to Owen. Ninth Inning. Crouch and Scurry hit the -ball but were 4iirown out at first) Wessinger made first, but Parks made- the-thir-d man out. Runs,.

ARRESTED ON CHARGE ARSON. Milton Gist alias Jeff Mitchell In Jail on Charge Burning House of His Wife. Milt'tn Gist alias Jetf Mitliell. was arrested on Thursday evenin_ in Un ion county some sixteen miles from Whitmire on the ciarge ot arson by Constable P. C. Odell. It seems that Mitchell and his wife, Fannie Mitch ell, have not been living on the happi est terms with each other. and on Monday night he whipped his wife, Fannie Mitchell and her daughter, Ella Copeland, and it was claimed set fire to' the house at that time. but the fire was discovered in time to save the building. Again on Wednesday, the 28th, the house of Fannie Mitchell was set on fire and completely de stroyed. Suspicion rested on the hus band of Fannie, and the warrant was taken out and he was captured as sta ted, though it is said he very strong ly resisted. arrest. He was brought to Newberry on Friday and placed in jail on the charge of arson. It is said that he has made threats against sev eral people in Whitmire, which he proposes to put into execution as soon as he is released from jail, in the event he should not be convicted. It also seems that he is a very bad and dangerous negro. He -and his wife seem' not to have lived happily to gether, though they have been mar ried only a few months. It is also laimed that there are. charges against him for burning at other p1dees. Con stable Odell, who made the capture, claims that he tracked him from the house that was burned to where he was captured. The house was on Mr. Odell 's place. Lecture at Central Methodist Church.

Holz hausen is seeking'- to help -men by pointing them to this great-exemplar. He comes well recommended. Rev. S. B. Rodgers, D. D., president of the Florida Baptist convention, speaking 'bf his lecture says that "it is true to history, vivid, lucid and cultured. It cannot but be helpful to all who hear it. The conclusion of the lec ture as it relates to soul independence and personal responsibility, cannot fail to inspire and help.' A silver collection will be received at the.eclose of the lecture.
