third im/iVtg that thrilling “cornfield”
four-bagger by Pat Mize and the run
by Ike Hand made our score 2. But
again tlie Dawson boys held us down
until the seventh inning when J.
Twilty scored. In the ninth our
hoys rallied at the bat and brought
the score up to 7. The heavy hitting
of H. Mel (on was very noticeable:
he secured one double and two sing

Second Game.
The excellent twirling of our “spit
b«tll” artist was a notable feature of
the short, snappy, seven inning game.
The boys agreed to play only five in¬
nings in the second game but at the
end of the fifth inning the score was
0 to 0 and then they agreed to play*
two more innings. Arthur, Patter¬
son and R. Melton each crossed the
plate which meant a shut-out of 3 to
0 against Pelham. “Big” Leaguer
Groover of Thomasville did good
work for the Dawsonites, and so did
Einstein, the Camilla second base
man.

Mr. Bryan played in abase ball

and the report of the affair states

way with him in politics. He’«
a good receiver, but. a trifie slow
in the running.
*1.00 PER YEAR.
Receiver is Appointed.
’Tliomasville, Ga., June $>—On the
order of Judge Speer in the federal
J. M. Wilkinson, of Valdosta,
■.wag appointed receiver for j. L. Phil¬
lips & Co.*,' Tallahassee Saw Mill
Company, and Cherokee Saw Mill
.Company, of tills city.
It is a friendly suit on part of stock¬
holders for protection of extensive
properties. They own saw mills and
•extensive timber lands in Florida
and Georgia, and have assets of over
$1,00(1,000; liabilities $100,000. It is
thought the receivership will be of
but short standing, as the firm is as
sound as any in the state. Inability
to realise on as ets of fixed character
is the cause of the s c tvership.
