STORIES OF REAL LIFE
Interesting Game Tomorrow
Afternoon—
Tomorrow, Thomasvllle and Mon-
ticello cross bats at the East 31de
Park. It Is going to be a game for
blood, one that will draw enthus
iasm from many fans in this part of
the State, as It is a contest for su
premacy between two old-time and
hard-flghtfng rivals. iMonticello
comes strengthened with the active
support of some of the old stars that
used to ' make Thomasvllle fight
hard, among them being Turnbull,
Malloy and others.
The two clubs played a twelve In
ning tie in Monticello recently and
they are out for this game for all
it’s worth. Mr. Ardis McDougald,
the best amateur umpire in this part
of the world, is going to handle the
indicator, which fact Insures a snap

line-up will be; Duncan 11). Up-

The game 3tarts at three thirty,
and all the fans who can should go
out and get up some old time en
thusiasm.
Changes Announced in Excursion
Plans—
The Atlantic Coast Line Is sending
out announcements canceling the
advertised excursion to mountain
resorts over the Southern Railway.
Any other town to which the an
nual excursion was announced than
those reached by the Southern Rail
way will be reached at the advertised
rate. It can be readily seen that
this cuts out the most Important
part of North Carolina: Asheville
and contiguous territory. The fist
of towns to which tickets will not
he sold on that date are Asheville,
Brevard, Flat Rock, Hendersonville,
Hickory, Lake Toxaway, Hot Springs,
Lenoir. Lincolnton, Marlon, Saluda,
Tate Springs, Tenn., Waynesvllle,
Walhalla and White Stone Springs,
S. C.
The Southern is planning to run
an excursion later for these resorts
although that is not definitely de
termined. It was probably caused
by reason of the condition of the
tracks In North Carolina.
More Railroads Accepting
Mileage Book*—
An interesting announcement has
come out in effect that after the first
of September, the L. & X. and other
smaller roads, including the Haw-
kinsville and Florida Southern, the
V. M. & W., and the Georgia, Flor
ida and Alabama, will accept mil
eage in payment for fares, as other
railroads have been doing for some
lime past. This will make it easier
for the traveling public to obtain
accomodations with mileage books.

Atlanta, Aug. 9.—When Cleland
Bacon, a beautiful Georgia girl,
whose classic dancing took New
York by storm, died in a New York

TELEPHONE LINE SEINE
EXTENDED TO CUBA
Atlanta, Aug. 9.—Announcement
was made in Atlanta today that the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company ta extending Its tines down
the East Coast of Florida, and will
cable across to Cuba. The con
struction began in Jacksonville
about a month, and Is expected to
be completed as far as Key West by
the first of November. Then the
cabling across to Cuba will begin.
The approximate cost of const: uc-
ting the line from Jacksonville to
Key West is $753,000. The very
best material is being u$ed and the
life of the line is indefinitu. Heavy
poles have been carefully selected
and in addition a heavy coat of creo
sote has been applied which will add
to the life of the pole. Six copper
wires will compose the line.
The lines will be used for both
telephone and telegraph purposes
and will comprise six telegraph and,
three telephone circuits, and all the
circuits may be used at the same
time without a telephone message
interfering with a telegraph mes
sage. The company hopes to con
nect with every local exchange
along the East Coast, and In that
case probably all long distance mes
sages will be transmitted over the
line.
Before the beginning of the work
demonstration was made from
Jacksonville to California, and
proved entirely / successful. When
the line reaches Key West, It will
be given a thorough demonstration
to California, New York and all dis
tant cities In the United States, and
will doubtless prove as successful
as did the first one.
