THE NEWS DOWNS THE LEDGER.
Features of Friday*# Game Were the
Errors of Our Boys.
According to announcement The
Nows and The Ledger ball teams met
at Jefferies’ ball park Friday afternoon.
At the beginning it looked like the
score was to be a good one, but in
the second inning the aggregation rep
resenting The News jumped on to By
ers and. assisted by the errors of The
Ledger team, plied up three runs, all
of which were made after two men had
been retired. From that on there was
no question as to who would win the
game. In the sixth inning Snead was
substituted for Byers, but he fared
just as badly as Byers. The long and
short of it is that The News had us
out-classed. They played a better
field and swatted the hall at the right
moment, while The Ledger boys failed
to connect with the hall either at the
hat or in the field. The following was
the line-up:
Ledger:—Lolly, 2b; Clary, c; Par
rish, ss: Snead, If and p; Phillips, rf;
Bell, lb; Ramsey, cf; DeStafflno, 3b;
Byers, p and If.
News:—Spake, ss; Lipscomb. V., lb;
Hamrick, c: Richardson. O. P„ 2b;
Richardson, I., p; Robbs. If; Humph
ries. 3b and p: Lipscomb, W., cf;
Campbell, rf.
The score by innings was as follows:
Ledger 101 000 ioo— 3
(News 130 142 03x—-14
Another hame will he played this
i afternoon at Jefferies’ park. The Led
ger team will he considerably strength-
| ened and it is predicted that the con-
| test will he more spirited.
As these games have been arranged
simply for the amusement of those
who love baseball it is hoped that a
large crowd will he present to encour
age the boys. A collection to defray
the expenses of the purchase of halls,
etc., will be taken up. Go out and
liven up the game.
DEATH OF MRS. PORTER.
She Passed Away Friday Night in the
Hospital at Chester.
After loving friends, tender loved
ones, affectionate husband and anx
ious physicians,, had done all that
could he done. Mrs. M. J. Porter, wife
of Mr. Jones Porter, peacefully breath
ed her last Friday morning June 9th,
at 1 o’clock, in the hospital at Chester,
where she had been taken for treat
ment. While few. if any. were expect
ing her death so soon, and while she
was patiently waiting to gain suffi
cient strength to undergo an operation,
she went home to her Saviour in
whom she had found comfort and con
solation for mo-e than twenty-one
years, having confessed Christ and
joined the Baptist churcn at Clifton
at the age of twelve.
After the funeral senMees at her
home, conducted by Rev. A. M.
Simms, she was laid to rest in Oak
land cemetery beneath a hank of
flowers.
Seven years ago in the mysterious
providence of God she was called to
the sick bed and for many months, as
many of her friends here already kne^,
was a great but patient sufferer. From
these afflictions she partially recovered
and was given hack to her home, hus
band and children; hut never to active
life, as she once enjoyed. But in none
of these did she express only deep re
gret. for to be given back to home, to
serve God in ministering the home
duties, to be a devoted wife and edu
cate her children, was her chiefest joy
on earth.
She leaves a husband, four children,
a mother, four sisters, and three broth
ers, one of whom is W. E. Crocker, a
missionary in Chinkiang, China.
The pail-hearers were: W. J. Wilk
ins, W. F. Brown, A. C. Pridmore, C.
A. Wood, June H. Carr and Fred V.
Turner.
A Good Lecture.
Sol P. McCall, of New Orleans, La.,
delivered his temperance lecture,
“A Drunkard’s Fate,” in the Star The
atre last Thursday night before a small
hut appreciative audience. Mr. McCall
is possessed of a magnificent phvsique,
a splendid voice, and his flow of lan
guage is as rippling as the mountain
brook. For nearly an hour he held the
closest attention of his audience while
he depicted in graphic style the fate
of the inebriate, dallying with statis
tics in such manner as to leave no
doubt of his acquaintance with the
subject in hand. His word picture of
the slave of drink who has become the j
victim of delirium tremens was pow-:
erful. while the story of his own down- j
fall and his efforts to reform were j
extremely pathetic.
Rev. Steadman Honored.
Rev. J. M. Steadman, the revered
pastor of the Buford Street Methodist
church, has been appointed as a dele
gate from this State to the Internation
al Sunday School Convention which
meets in Toronto. Canada, next week.
This is a high honor for Mr. Stead
man, as only a select few are to he
sent from this State; and his church
appreciates it so highly that it has
decided to bear the expenses of his
trip.
