BALL AT EMORY.
i oU ble Header Played Monday
Afternoon Between Two
Class Teams.
I On last Monday afternoon two
lass games were played at Emory
lubs vs Sophs and Freshmen vs
amors. The first game was call-
1 at 2 o'clock, in which the Hubs
jrpnsed many in the good show
g they made. The score was 14
9, the Sophs winning out. Dr.
uroer umpired.
The second game between the
reshmen and Juniors was called
3:80, and svas started off by the
x rims made by the Freshmen
ho gradually gained ground as
ie game progressed. The score
,is 12 and 11, tl.e game going to
e Juniors, Batteries for the
reshmen, Smith and Hartsfield,
r the Juniors, Stipe and Sitn
ions. Umpire, Dr. Turner.
More people from Covington
ould go over and witness these
mes. They are not lacking in
irit and in ginger, and will fur
e hungry and unfed fans over
re some way in which to avoid
le dreary and unpromising base
til spirit, which seems to be pass
[g away into oblivion from
hence nothing returns.
But we predict that now is one
[stance [at where this is untrue, and
the spirit, such as will please
ost any knocking fan will arrive
pd that very soon.
We hope that time will not be
r off, and when it comes there
Nil be many things to do. The
til park is to be put into shape,
pd the evidences of last fall’s cir
pses makes it a hard proposition,
Many numerous things will have
I be done. We will try to be pa
but as a successful season has to
kelope gradually.

GREAT REDUCTION IN
PRICE OF FLOUR.
Swans Down flour is produced
from the choicest selected winter
wheat, raised in soil and climate
that gives it a richness of color aud
fla\or and baking qualities unsur¬
passed. It is the result of the ex
p' rience of several generations of
expert millers for fifty years in
their efforts to produce a perfect
high grade flour. It is superior to
any other high grade winter wheat
flour now on the market, and is as
white as wholesome pure wheat
flour can be made. Price to con¬
sumers $5 25 per barrel. Southern
Beauty flour presses all the merits
of Swun Down except it is not ns
white Price to consumers |4.80
per barrel.
These flours are the best for well
folks, but are especially good for
the aged and ailing. For Sale by
