Wild Cats and Tigers in Mortal Combat. Ehrhardt, July 19.?The Wild I.Cats and the Tigers, two local teams, composed of has beens and yet to-bes, engaged in a battle royal on the local diamond last Thursday afternoon. Thrilling misplays and exciting errors, which are beyond the descriptive ability of an ordinary writer, were the features of the game. However, the two outstanding sensations of the game were the brilliant effort of Sam Copeland, playing right field for the Tigers, to capture a high fly which fell in his glove, and the superhuman attempt of Jake Hiers, playing third base for the Wild Cats, to get a high pop fly, which he, with precise misjudgment, turned into a two base bit by letting the ball hit the top of his head. At the end of nine hotly contested innings the score stood 16 to 16. The sun was still shining, and the fans were loudly calling for more, nevertheless, the game had to be called on account of fatigue. At some date in the near future the tie will be played off, to which event all lovers of real sport who enjoy seeing the old ball game played as it should be, are cordially invited. . 4 Entertain for Visitors.

Cat and Rattler. To the editor of Woods and Waters: Do cats charm? j I have never seen one do so, but have been many times reliably informed that they do. TViio ralotaH hr A T, -TCirk J. 1110 123 X ^/lUVVU Kf J JMI land, clerk of court of Bamberg county, and there is not a more reliable man in our county: Several years ago, in going to his farm in company with several others, they saw a huge rattler just in front of them in the road, at the foot of the hills as one enters the swamp at Old Spring Town (Adams' Bridge), a noted place for rattlers, where many had been killed. The snake was lying full-length and a large cat was seen some six or eight feet in front of the snake. The party all got out of their machine and approached quite near to see what would take place. Neither the cat nor snake seemed to be aware ! of their presence, each having its eyes riveted on the other. The cat seemed to get nearer and nearer the snake, but the process being so slow, the men decided to break up this flirting. Securing a pole, they struck the snake. The cat leaped high in the air and rushed off into the bushes. I imagine this would have been a battle royal had they gotten togeher. I have known cats to kill small harmless snakes. J.

Griggs, of North, concluded a six-day revival at the Olar Baptist church last week, considered one of the best attended and successful held at this church in some time. About thirty-five new members were added to the church roll as a result. Mr. Griggs is a good thinker, a hard worker and has an attractive personality. Rev. C. M. Peeler, Methodist pastor at Olar, likewise has been conducting a series of services at Salem, one of his churches. about six miles from town near Hilda. He too is inclined revivalward, and with a much smaller field to draw from, added twelve to the Salem roll. Mr. Peeler reports a fine meeting generally. One of the Sunday schools of Olar has been having for some time a teachers' and officers' meeting every Thursday evening at six-thirty, one of which meetings the writer has attended. This is a good movement, and, if feasible, yours truly would like to see it extended to include both Sunday schools jointly. We are strong for unanimity, and any7 thing that tends to strengthen the cooperation between the sects, "whether it be political, religious or what not. Boll Weevil Ayes and Noes. "No, sir, I have not got as many weevils on my place as I had this! time last year, and I- believe I will make more cotton per acre," some say. ]VIr. B. has the floor. "Well, my j cotton is doing fine and seems to have very few of the 'varmints' in it,, but right across the road my neigh-! bor's field is literally 'eat up' with them." } "I tell you what is a fact," says j a third wise, "our crop is gone to the dogs, for last year most of us j ~ ~ ,11,. - 1 i. 4.

These may or may not be correct quotations from some remarks which j the writer has heard?or imasined. ! Sorry, We Need it Ourselves. And still it rains. By the way, Mr. !
