Azain the chapel bell rang the j »yful
tidings that G or i.i had ag tin been vic
torious, and this time over Trinity.
The game was a very pretty one «R1
the exception of Ihree innings, and tin
score 5 to 4. with the Georgia's rooster
crowing, tells of a hard fonght strug
gle. To these innings were coefim d al
most entirety the many errors whiob
were made, all of which were of the
mo.t costly sort that canted runs. Trc
team that represented Trinity wss t
very good oae, and it is nard to under
stand how it was that Tech defeated
them by such sn overwhelming score
Webb, who was on the slab for Trinity,
pitched a pretty game and the Infield
handled themselves well. The outfield
didn't get a chance. Costly error*,bj
the substitute catcher, Ropsf,Chadwick
having been Injured in the Teoht fame,
caused the Crackers several-of their
runs.
In ths first inning, which has come
to be regarded by the wearers of the Red
and Black as very fatal, the home team
went np in the air, but outside of this
they played good steady ball, their few
errors not resulting in anything serioos
The exhibition of twirling pnt np by
Jaok Bower was of the finest sort.
Twelve Methodists succumbed to his
speed and elanls, and ouly two hits
were yielded. The rank support he ob
tained In the first aDd sixth Innings hio-

that there is gTave danger of a clash be-
tween Russia and Japan over the Chi

Many times a school teacher in the
middle of a heavy session requires exact
ly the right kind of food to rebuild the
wasted nerve and brain tissues as well
as to keep op the muscular energy. This
is the business of Grape Nu s in which
the starchy part of the pure cereals
is t nined to grape sugar and where the
phosDhates predominate, making it rich
in food value and ready for the weakest
stomach to assimilate imuedlately. A
lady teacher of Minneapolis Eays :
"About fonr years ago I realized that
I was bieaking dewn nervously in the
middle of » school year. To a school
teacher this means cot only loss of
health but inability to go on with her
work Nothing appeared to help me
and and I was jnst about discouraged
when a friend re commended that I look
iuto Grape Nats. On reading what this
food does toward rebuilding brain and
nerve centers I made np my mind to
give it a fair trial.
• I ate Grape-Nuts food dry with cream
for breakfast and eDjoyed it greatly; my
improvement began immediately and
was so steady that I did not realize how
fully I had been benefited nntil an extra
strain came on me in my school work
through w h ch I was able to go, contin
uing to improve all the t me. Locking
back on the trial now, I realize how this
wondetful food saved me from a certain
break-down.
"I have kept np the daily nse of Grape
Nats ever since and have never had a
return of the tronble. I always taxe a
package with me when travelling and I
look npon the food as essential to my
health as fresh air or exercise.” Name

"Capt. Jack showed before he had
been on the platform three minutes that
as an entertainer he is a positive genins.
"His experience at Indian fighting in
the far west famishes him with an
abundant supply of material for thrill
ing reminiscenses, and the graphic man
ner in which he describes his adven
tures, acting them all over again, so to
Bpeak, almost takes an audience ont of
itself fer the time beiug.
"He is also a humorist and mimii of
wonderful retonree, and can tell a story
second-hand, even if it is something of
a chestnnt, with so much of his own
attractive personality infused into it aB
will make it go with an andience just as
well as though it were brand new.
"His power of graphic description ap
peared at its best in his story of a battle
with 2,000 of Sitting Bull’s warriors,
just after the Custer massacre, on the
Little Big Horn.
"His description of a 350 mile journey
alone through the Indian country, as
bearer of dispatches from Gen. Crook to
Gen. Sheridan, was tremendously ex
citing.
“He furnished a fitting climax to his
unique entertainment by closing it with
an illustration of the quick use of his
gun, as he called it, a revolver fully
foot long, carried in his belt, and
whipped out and fired, left banded, with
a celerity beautiful to behold.”

Dr. Theron H. Rice, of Atlanta, will
not fill the chair of homiletics in Prince
ton University, to which he was re
oently colled. Dr. Rice gave the matter
careful consideration and determined
that he wonld remain at his present
work as pastor of the Central Presbyte
rian ohnrch in Atlanta.
Mr. J. W. McElhannon, one of the
popular salesmen of Turner & Hodg
son's, sustained very painful injuries at
the store Monday night.
Ho had been to the Christian church
and after services had returned to the
store for the purpose of arranging his
stock.
He started out into the rear yard to
get a drink of water aud as hs stepped
from the door, tripped over a piece of
lumber that was lying across the dcor-
way.
He fell violently against a pile of boxes
that had been torn to pieces aud three
wire nails that protruded from a piece
of plank entered his left knee jnst above
the knee-cap.
Mr. McElhannon, iu great pain, called
for assistance and Mr. Ed Turner came
to the door. Mr. Tamer’s entire strength
was tequired to pull tho nails ont of Mr.
McElhatiuou's knee
The injury came very near being quite
serious as it almost involved the knee
cap. As it was, one of the nails stuck
into the cap bone, bnt did not penetrate
into the cavity.
Dr. Rideout dressed the injured mem-
in a few days to he at nlBwsfk again.
