The Broad street artesian well is
once more the point of assembly for
the young folks In the afternoon.
Summer always sees the well a seene
of laughter and merry-making just
before dark, and it is a famous plaoe
of rendezvous for sweethearts and
lovers. If a person could record all
that transpired around the well, in a
single afternoon, it would fill a very
interesting volume. From 6 o’clock
until dark, the boys march to the well
from Broad street, and are met by the
girls who come from the other direc
tion. They then pair off and radiate
in all directions to their homes.

Seventeen and twelve runs in three
Innings. Find us two teams that can
do better. •
The Fats and Leans who played at
the base ball park yesterday, we mean.
And how they did play)
They went Into the game with the
enthusiasm of 12-year-olds, and played
us though their lives depended on it.
The threatening weather and the
slight sprinkle at the first of the game
did not serve to dampen their ardor in
the least.
The game was called at a little after
4 o’clock and the Fat men went to the
bat.
Mr. Kd. It. Jones went Into the box
for the Leans, and.Mr. W. K. Hilsmnu
tied a pillow across his chest for a
protector and went behind the bat to
“catoh ’em out.”
The Fut men were all hard hitters,
but finding that the ball did not al
ways stand In the way of the bat to
arrest the stroke, the bat itself went
often flying toward third base and*the
batter bit the dust, literally.
But the Leans did not get in trim
for work during the first inning, and,
consequently, the Fats made nine runs
and started on tile second round be
fore tlie third matt was put out.
When the Leans got u chance at the
bat, they went in with a determina
tion to "shut ’em out,” and It looked as
though they would succeed for they
were all "fiy hitters” and "high' flit
ters,” and the way they sped around
the diamond, with now two men on one
base and now three, caused their op
ponents tu think that they did not
have things ail their own way!
There came near being a serious ao-
oident down near third base when two
fielders, after the same fly ball, eatne
together witli a shock like the Ilell-
gate explosion. But as both men
crawled away on their hands and
knees after the ball, the spectators
concluded that no harm was done,
One man on first base tried to stop
the ball with hla hat. Failing In that
attempt, some one suggested to him
that he put on skirts and maybe he
could then stop a grounder.
At the end of the third Inning the
game stood 17 to 12 In favor of the Lean
men, and the umpire waa obliged to
call the game on account of the rain.
The Leans are Indignant over the
result of the game aa kept by the
scorer. They emphatioally claim that
their side made more runs by six than
did the Fnts, but that the umpire, pos
sesalng a superabundance of adipose
tissue himself, sympathized with that
aide, and, consequently, his rulings
were In their favor.
They are laying low for that urn
pire.
Worth county held her Democratic
mass meeting Monday.
Col. Bill Harris, Chairman, of the
Democratic Kxecutive Committee of
the county, was in the chair, and pre
sided with his usual grace and stern
dignity, but the AMiauuemeii were in
the saddle, and had everything their
own sweet way.
The meeting Indorsed candidate
Stevens for Congress and Judge J. II.
Guerry for Attorney-General, and nlsn
indorsed the present State House offi
cers with the exception of Governor
Northen.
“Why did they refuse to Indorse
Governor Northen?" asked a Herald
scribe of a Worth county man who at
tended the convention.
“Don’t know, unless It was on ae
count uf his spat with 1’ost,” was the
reply.
Delegates were elected as follows:
To the Gubernatorial Convention—
W. A. Harris and Dr. W. J. Hall.
To the Congressional Convention—
G. G. Ford, Jackson Davis, ,T. M. LIp-
pltt, T. L. Kitchen. They were In
structed to vote for O. B. Stevens.
To the Senatorial Convention—J. J.
McDowell, W. L. Story, Dr. W. L.
Sikes, 0. G. Dell, J. S. Boone. They
were instructed to abide the rotation
rule, and, tills being Dougherty coun
ty's time, to vote for this county’s
choice.
Resolutions offered by Editor Allen,
of the Worth Local, Indorsing the
State and National Democratic plat
forms, and reaffirming allegiance to
the time-honored principles of De
mocracy were voted down.

They love base ball up at Monte
zuma. In fact, they must have an
overwhelmingly strong attachment
for the national game if the following
story be true. The Hebald does not
vouch for its truthfulness, but gives it
es it was told;
A worthy and respected oltlzen of
Montezuma died this week, so the
atory goes, and waa to have been
buried Tuesday. But as tbe under
taker and the pall-bearers wanted to
see the ball game, the funeral was
postponed until Wednesday afternoon.
But when Wednesday afternoon
came, undertaker and pall-bearers had
forgotten the funeral completely, and
when searched for were found at the
ball game vigorously “’rahlng” for
Montezuma. They could not be In
duced to leave, and so the funeral had
to be postponed another day.
Whether the frleqds and relatives
were able to get the corpse Interred
yesterday or not, the Herald is unable
to state.

A spelling bee was held, Tuesday
night, at the residence of Mr. F. R.
Sweat.
It was an informal, neighborhood
affair and everybody who wanted to,
spelled.
Two classes were formed. The first
class was headed by Miss Josie Me.
Clellan on one side and Misa Lollie
Johnson on the other, and Miss Hattie
Hail, daughter of Mr. A. Hall, waa the
last to go down.
Mr. O. P. Lunday gave out the
words, using Swlnlon’s spelling book,
but put In a generous sprinkling of
such words as "symmetry,” “assafos-
tidk,” and other like words tended to
confuse the brain and twist the
tongue.
The second matoh was headed by
two gentlemen, and Mr. E. H. Crain
downed them all, after which the com
pany adjourned to rest their weary
brain* and refresh the inner man on
ice cream and cake. The occasion
was so enjoyable and laughter-pro
voking that there was talk of organ
izing a spelling soolety.
The threatening weather just at the
‘ ■ fi
beginning of the game frightened
away the crowd, but, in spite of that,
there were enough ladles present to
give Inspiration to the players.
A sum of something over (20 was
realized for the Confederate monu
rnent.

The Albany nine came home last
night, but no brass band met them at
the depot, and no ovation was given
them. All that can be said 1b that
they have returned.
The result of the game at Mont*
zuma yesterday was 18 to 8 in favor of
Montezuma.
But our boys are not feeling sore
over their defeat, as the odds were, all
through, overwhelmingly in favor of
Montezuma, on aooount of the number
of professionals in their team. In
deed, Albany does not consider that
a game has been played with Monte'
zuma, but with the pick of the Atlan-
ta and Macon teamB, and the boys feel
that they have done well to get out of
it as well as they did.
But Montezuma and Albany will try
their luck again on Albany ground

Mr. Richard Pattison took a snap
shot with a double barrel gun at some
marauders on his grandfather’s fruit
orchard last night,
Mr. Pattison has some fine peaches
growing in tbe lot adjoining his rest
dence on Jefferson street, and as the
fruit is of the early variety, and many
persons haven’t yet had any peaches,
the temptation is too great for some of
them, and on several occasions persous
have leaped the _ fence during tbe
night and helped themselves to the
luscious fruit.
Last night suoh a thing occurred.
About 10 o’clock some one was dlS'
covered in the orchard. Mr. Pattison
took a shotgun, and going out turned
loose both barrels in tbe direction of
the raiders. There’ was a frightened
yell or two, a hasty scramble, and Mr.
Pattison was lord of all he surveyed.
The peaches have all been polled
from the trees now, however, and there
is no longer any temptation for ma
randera to “hook” them.

Some time before the Guards went
the encampment, It waa announced
that they would have their annual tar
get contest there, but the State failed
to make provision for the carrying out
of the project, so that not a single gun
was fired during the whole time the
Guards were in camp.
Now Oapt. Wooten has another plan
for competing for the medal. At dif
ferent times between this and the time
of the next encampment, the Guards
will go out and fire at a target, at vari
ous distances, ranging from a hundred
to a thousand yards. A record will b<
kept, and at the end of b year the per
son who has made the best average
will be declared the winner of the
medal.
Capt. Wooten has ordered a book of
rules and regulations for target shoot
ing, and the work will probably begin
in a abort while.
