It le reported the town of Dajotan has been captured and two hundred men killed. MANY MINERS KILLED BY EXPLOSION IN WALES Special Cable—Copyright. London.

JUDGE COBB FALLS IN FAINT IN STREET Judge Howell Cobb, of Athens, broth er of Supreme Court Justice Andrew J. Cobb, fainted In the lobby of the Kim ball House Saturday from an attack of acute Indigestion. He was tended by Dr. S. T. Barnett at the hotel, and later was carried to the Presbyterian Hospital, where he was reported rest ing easily. His brother stAted that lie was subject to such fainting spells. Mrs. Cobb has been summoned from Athens. HANDING ’EM THE “LEMONI" Football Season Which Opens Next Month Promises To Be Best Atlanta Ever Had By BRIAN 8. BROWN. Those residents of Atlanta who love the gentle and lady-like game of foot ball will have abundant opportunity to gratify their tastes during the com ing season. There will be fought out at Tech park during the coming fall a series of what should be the most memorable games known to the history of Southern colleges athletics, and un less all signs fall, the Southern cham pionship In football will be decided upon tho same field whereon last May the baseball championship was fought out. The schedulo of the eleven represent Ing the Georgia School of Technology will probably bo the heaviest of any Southern college this year, embracing as it does every team which now seems to have a look-in at the championship —Sewanee, Vanderbilt, Clemson and Auburn. Present indications do not point to Georgia as a candidate for high plg-skln honors, yet Athens has a football tradition that will go far to ward the regeneration of the once haughty Red and Black. Hopes are expressed all over Georgia that the change of coaches at Athens will result In a much better team than represent ed the institution on the gridiron last year. With Williams In charge at Clemson, there should be no let-up of the high standard which the Tigers havo main tained'for years past. Representing the technical school of the two great states of South Carolina and Georgia, Clemson and Tech have been natural rivals for athletic honors for years, and though tho palms of vic tory were waved over the Old Gold nnd White last Thanksgiving clay, Tech feels that It will take several such drubbings to wipe off the slate the 78- to-0 defeat of 1903. Williams was the only man who wns ever able to get the decision over Helsman while the latter was coaching Clemson, and now that ho has left South Carolina college, where football has been ahollshed, and gone to Clemson, warm times may be looked for there. Watch the prediction that the Thanksgiving day game will be a memorable one, with a memor able crowd to witness It. Vanderbilt! There we have the key to the situation. Most authorities in the South say that when the Gold and Black of Tennessee meets the Gold and White of Georgia that there will be decided the real question ns to "who's ho" In Dixieland. Those In a posi tion to know, state that the material that will line up for Dan McGugin’s Inspection next month will not he near up to the standard of List season, and though no one doubts that he Is a good coach, he will have to match his brains against the smoothest artist In that line the South has ever seen. Jack Heis- i is a law graduate of Pennsylvania, he <L>esn’t confine his plays to those he learned at college. The fact Is that he doesn’t use the same plays any two reasons in KU4*eesslon, even hen there Isn’t any change In the rules. John Counseltnan was assistant coach at Tech In 1904, and when he ent to Cumberland last year he thought he knew all of llcisman’s plays and how to meet them, but so skillfully did the “wizard*’ of South ern football train his men that the double pass which Counselman had helped to drill fntt> the men the year before waa worked right under hi* gO00O0O00CH>O0O000O00O0O00g O TECH’S SCHEDULE. 0 O The corrected Tech football O schedule follows: S September 13—First practice.

P. I. man couldn’t see It. Under the now' rules the grandfather of football would hardly know the game. Originality of attack and de fense is going to count a whole lot and Heismnn is nothing If not original. With all due respect to every coach In the South, he has done more with the material entrusted to his care than any other man who has ever attempted to guide a Southern team to gridiron hon ors. Another team that is going to make hard going for Tech Is the Orange and Blue, of Auburn. Like Clemson, Au burn is a technical school, and as Us students play the best football in Ala bama they aro natural rivals of the Atlanta college. Although Mike Donahue’s team was weak Inst season, he Is no novice, and may be depended upon to give a good account of himself with this year’s squad. Sewanee is another college where there is a football tradition and the purple-clad Tigers may he looked for to give the mighty Blacksmiths a struggle as vicious as they did last year when the best the two teams could do was an even break—18 to 18. I It looks as though Helsman Is going to have to put up a half new team this year. Day and Clark, two of last year’s stars, are sure not to be back, and the chances are Just about even that Brown and “Red" Wilson have played their last games. It w'as stated at first that Billy Wilson, who Is due to captain the bunch this year, would not be back, but later developments make It look as though the plucky lit tle player will be there when the ref eree blows his whistle for the first down of the year. Another man who will be badly missed Is Butler, who, next to Kyle, waa considered the best quarterback In the South last year. He w'as conceded to be the finest Inter* ferer who ever played In Atlanta. Sam Roberts, who played such a star game on Thanksgiving day, graduated In June, but Is to be back for a course in mechanical engineering, and will probably be used to fill the gap at quarter. Though light, he is one of tho quickest men on his feet which the game has developed. Selman, w'ho played guard in most of the games last season, will not be back. Little things like breaking In a new team have no terrors for a man of the resourcefulness of Helsman, and when the Atlanta public Journeys to Tech park next October and November It can expect to see playing that will be well worth the price of admission, both by the Blacksmiths and their rivals. BADLY CRIPPLED TEAM HEADS WESTWARD TONIGHT Jim Fox haa blown back to town, looking and feeling fine. But the wound on hla arm la still In rather bad condition. It baa not healed, and If Jim usea his arm he will do xo at con siderable risk. Whether he will be able to play Saturday or the early part of next week wHl depend chiefly on the result of consultations with hla doc tors. Jimmy Archer's shoulder, which was injured Monday when he did the ground-and-lofty tumbling act at first base, Is still In wretched condition, and It Is not unlikely that he will not be able to go out with the team for the opening of the trip, though perhaps he will be able to rejoin the bunch later. Of Wallace’s condition nothing defi nite Is known, except that he Is yet far from well. The Atlanta team pulls out Saturday night on the Frisco train for Memphis. The bunch will play three games against Babb's Burglars, four against Little Rock, Including a double-h.:,^, Auamst 25, three games at Shreveport and three against New Orleans POrt Then they come back for the labor Day opening and the final series at home, at the end of which the team disbands and the baseball season over. 11 With the team badly crippled as it i. local fans look with dismay on the coming swing thrdugh the West Vn less luck changes, It Is likely to he * series of misfortunes, and there win he j Just cause for thankfulness If the bunch comes back with whole skins. Atlanta has gone back to fifth niece That double-header Friday was more than the standing of the club could bear and there was a decided si U mn Birmingham still has a good lead In the race, but If the gap In the Infield caused by the Illness of Oyler and Alcock Is not filled, there Is trouble du« for the tribe of Vaughn on the comin. swing through the West. * Pitcher Still of Richmond Joins Atlanta September 1 Spsclal to The Georgian. Portsmouth, Vn., Aug. 18.—“Colonel" Still, the Richmond club’s crack twirier, has been sold to the Atlanta baseball club of the Southern League. He confirmed the report that he will play with the Gate City team on the Southern circuit nfter September 1, when he will report to Manager Smith. Re ports regarding the sale of Still to Atlanta have been circulated widely on the Vlrglnlt circuit of late, but Still would nevor talk about It until today, when he admitted that he will go south at the end ot this month. He Is s Kentuckian, and by profession a newspaper man. He aspires to own a little Sad, Funeral Notes Sounded After the Fierce Slaughter Friday always was an unlucky day. Guess we'll have to transfer the title of Burglars from Memphis to Mont gomery. The opening game was one of the best of the season, but the locals are so badly over-trained and over-strain ed that they could not keep the pace through tho second one. Guess Doc Childs will be with us tor awhile yet. He pitched nice ball Fri day. FRIDAY’8 RESULTS. Southern— Montgomery 1, Atlanta 0. Montgomery 8, Atlanta 2. Birmingham 2, Nashville 1.

The Charge is Absolutely False if —BILLY SMITH, Billy Smith was rightfully Incensed at the charge made by Charley Frank that he had won two pennants In Macon by the use of "rubber balls." This charge Billy denies absolutely. Such a denial Is hardly necessary, however, for any one who knows Billy Smith feels confident that he would not resort to any such meth ods. He Is the kind of a manager who takes advantage of any legitimate opportunity, but whatever he* wins he wins on the square. In answer to Charley Frank's charge Smith said: "Any statement that I used rubber balls In Macon or anywhere else is a deliberate falsehood. I have never used one, and do not expect to. In fact. I never saw a rubber ball until I went to New Orleans on that famous trip. Such a charge Is absolutely falie, as well as absolutely absurd.” Atlanta vs. Montgomery AUGUST 18. GAME CALELD 3 P. M. job these days? not been seen anywhere except on the bench or on Peachtree street for these many days. If the team behind Childs had been able to hit Maxwell the game would have gone to Atlanta with a rush. But the Pickle was rather too warm a prop osition. Regular Dill. Apperlous went to sleep when Win ters came to bat In the fourth Inning and strayed well over to the left end of his territory. Bo when Winters sent one down between center and left it was out of Apperlous' reach. But Mc Cann got under It and spoiled what looked like a good single. It was pretty hard luck that Perry scored. A base on balls and a wild pitch let the stubby third baseman get to third base. When Perry ambled off Childs throw In an attempt to catch him. The hall went a trifle wide and Smith dropped It. Not a bad error by any means, but It happened to he the unfortunate play that lost the game. No kick coming on Sid Smith, though. He Is playing a beautiful game at third and Is undeniably one of the most valuable men on the team. Apperlous nearly scored In the firs' game. With two men down In the fourth an error let him get to second When McCann singled he tried to score but Winters sent the ball to Jordan, who relayed it to Evers and completed the put-out Fine business. Zeller pitched the widest "ball” of the season Friday. Instead of going over the plate It slid off Rube's fingers al most at right angles to Its proper di rection and brought up against the grand stand. Fortunately no men were on bases. During the progress of the game some admirer of Mullaney sent him half a watermelon. This Dominick re ceived with much thanks and ate as the game progressed. Apperioua made a lucky single In the first Inning of the second game. Zeller slapped the ball and almost stopped It and Hoffman went In behind him and picked It up nicely. Unfortunately Lar ry’s balance became misplaced In the shuffle apd he fell down. Before he could throw the ball everybody wan eafe. Walsh has rather the most awkward delivery seen at Piedmont this season, but It is certainly effective. The At lanta batters could do nothing with him. Archer made a great one-handed catch Just before he had to give up In the second game. Busch got away with what looked like a hit, but Jeems speared It. Looks as though Augusta were hard after the South Atlantic pennant Handed another shut-out to Savannah Friday. Well, even If Atlanta did lose two Birmingham won, so there Is a crumb of comfort In the gloomy situation. Loueka pitched fine ball for Memphis against New Orleans. And Memphis won. Gee. If this keeps up long Char- lev Babb. Tom McCullough and every - body else connected with Babb's Rur,. lars will be fired. Or maybe the New Orleans-Mem- phls-Shreveport-LIttle Rock confeder ation has nominated Memphis to win the pennant tide year, since New Or leans begins to appear out of It. j League Standings | .1 * 80UTHERN.
