All of this week the Mercer eleven
has undergone dally practice, held In
secret. The theft of the signal* and
tho MuhKcquent tipping of them to
Florida put Coach I Hake on hta guard,
and In preparation for the Auburn
game he took no chance* whatever.
Tho men have not been -put through
uny scrimmage tactic* thl* week, but
apodal attention ha* bean paid to
punting, running nnd signal work.
Intake *wlt Choq entirely from the
method* he employed at Gordon, he-
iunc of Auburn's familiarity with that
vie of play, nnd the Alabama tx
III bn up against something new.
The gunie Is going to he a gre*t one
for several reasons. Neither the Mer
cer eleven nor conch are overlooking
anything In preparing for It and are
finding out every possible weakness
and strengthening It. Tftako doesnoi
believe thnt Auburn can go through
the Mercer linn and thinks that they
will find It equally ns difficult trying
to mak* It around the end*. And ho
count* on Cochran and Minion to do
what he bellcv*-* Auburn will fall at.
These two hoy*, by the wav, are about
the two best beta In football that have
ln*en sprung on tho Mercer gridiron
In vrnrs. Doth nr* fast, strong and
hard-workers, nnd It's not going to be
no easy matter to hold them back.
With Cochran In the game, tho for
ward puss can lie worked with greater
ease nnd safety, n* (Union can do the
throwing, whereu* this waa Mallary’i
ily weak point last Saturday.
The rooting will make tho game «
memorable one. A rooters' club hn*
been organised at Mercer for this par-
tIntisr occasion and somg surprises
will be uncorked. There arg fsw who
have forgotten the rooting organised
for tho Georgia-Mercer baseball battle
lant spring, nnd neither will they for
get this affair.
|j»st year Auburn defeated Mercer
«3 to 0.
This year Auburn ha* betted How
ard nnd Gordon by scores of It to 0
and 43 to 0, respectively.
This year Mercer has besttn I«ocust
Grove and Florida by ths reaptctlvc
scores of to 0 and to 0.
Neither Mercer nor Auburn have
been scored on thls*y#sr. Both have
won two games. And In defeating
Florida the local eleven went up
ngalnat a team fully a* strong. If not
stronger, thnn either Howard or Gor
don.
It looks like Mercer!

The report that * crowd waa watching

read yto do away with the negro, waa
current In Macon, but the Jonea County
News in Its last Issue tells of the actual
facts. After the •recital of th* shooting,
the News says:
•The rumor a* to preparations for
lynching the negro upon hta arrival *;
On the morning of. the day that the negro
waa to be brought home some young men
casually, and without any purpose of na
tion, remarked that the negro should be
lynched. Later tn the day this opinion
was expressed over the 'phone, and there
from all sorts of wild rumor# went out,
of which our people were densely tano-
G fit until some of them were called to
s •phone by Macon clttaen* and tnqutay
mad* aa to the truthfulness of th# pro
posed lynching, which appeared
widely circulated down that woy.^H
that end tt wa* learned that a rumor
was in circulation to th# effect that a
mob would come through thacountay fTosei
down that way. meet the train a* ^Ora:
take the nexro from the sheriff an.
lynch him. Hearing of these rumor*, some
of our best people cam* together, and
while utterly falling to find any founda
tion for tbe raport. and simply a mat-
feref precaution fiovtsedSheriff Etheridge
to leave hta prisoner tn the Bibb county
Jail for th# time being. This was
true situation and Jonee county was
nearer a lynching than ever before. Our
people are law-abiding, etond ready at
all times to uphold It* majesty end regret
very much that eueh damaging rumor#
should have gained circulation. Gray
was never more quirt or peaceful than
on that day. and there was no armtlanc
of a mob at any time. But very fev
knew that the negro would be left In Ms
con. yet th# crowd that met the train
waa as t# uxual every day—very few,
composed of both ladles and men That')
how near good old Jones came to d’s-

Evidently the publication of the order
had good effect, as only one caae was
