THE BRUNSWICK DAILY NEWS. VOLUME 2, NUMBER 228. VISITORS OUTPLAYED BY BRUNSWICK BOYS ns AN EASY MARK Loca f Defeated Them Yesterday in a One sided Game. THE SCORE WAS 26 TO I The Two Teams Will Meet On the Diamond Again This Afternoon. Waycross to Have a New Battery. The nine ball players (?) who came down from Waycross yesterday to bat tle for supremacy with the locals, are evidently tired this morning. They did a hard days work in the running line yesterday afternoon, chasing the ball from every quarter of the held. The Brunswick boys knock • ed it to the fence, over the fence, under the fence and all round the fence. It was one continual chase after the sphere by the visitors. In the rush to tell of the heavy hitting the score is forgotten. It might he mentioned that at the end of the game it was 26 to 1 in favor of Brunswick. It was the opening game of the season in this city and the crowd was one of the largest that ever wit nessed a game, and it was too had that the contest wais no more > truer eat ing. but it was enjoyed, nevertheless, the locals being ahead from the start. The fireworks began in the very first inning. It did not take our hoys any • time toi catch on to the Waycross twirler, and Jack Bowen, who was the second man up, started the crowd to rooting by placing a two bagger u i'imgie'i, scoring Bowed, 1 and ? came in bn nnother error.' i The. Waycross boys given -dm? ■ run in the first inning and after that time only one man reached third base, and only a few went as far as first. In every inning the locals would score two or three safe hits, and they succeeded in scoring in every inning except two. Often they came across the home plate two at a time, and the official scorer probably had the hardest job he has tackled for some time. Walker was in the box for the lo cals and he held the visitors down in great shape, in fact he never did "turn loose" on them. They only got one or two scratch hits. In the sev enth innig Mallard was placed in the box, and he also held them down, i change was made in order to save Wal her and he will do the twirling today. Waycross also held her best battery for the game today, and it is expect el that the game will be more interest ing in every respect. The game yesterday, being thefirst of the season, gave Manager Coleman a chance to sizeup his aggregation, notice he weak places and see just whe ie needed players. However, tb re team showed up in good j, ad only a few small errors were recorded against them, while die error column of the Waycrossites was over crowded. Bowen, behind the bat proved to be alt that was expected o£ a catcher. Not a pass ball nor an error was re corded against him. His throwing, white not as good as it could have teen, was way above the average and, with a little more practice, he -will prove to be one of the best catchers in this section of of the state. At the bat he carried off the honors with a three-bagger, a double and two sin gles. Crovatt, at first, Nightengale at B hort. Mallard, at third, and O'Counor in center, also played an excellent game. Hopkins in left and Hunter in right did not. have a single chance while O Connor was only given three halls in center, two of which he han dled very prettily. The Waycross fielders were ofl a little and several errors were made. On second, Pittman, for the visitors, played a very good game, and his catch in the fifth inning was one of tne features of the game. Lopez, at first, who, it will be remembersd, was with Brunswick last season and caught several games, also played well in the game yesterday. The two teams will meet on the dia mond again this afternoou, and it it is expected that the game will be more interesting than was the one yesterday. The manager of the Way cross team announced last night that he would have anew and crack bat tery here today, and expressed the belief that with the assistance of these two* new players his team would cap ture the game today. The lineup of the locals will also be changed. Mallard will be in the box and two or three changes will be made in the infield. Manager Coleman was very much encouraged with the attendance at yesterday’s game, and he feels that the people are goin- t club well this season. EMMELINE TO CUMBERLAND.

PAY NOW OR PAY DOUBLE ThiseWho Have Been Summoned and j Who Have Not Paid the Tax Will Be Arraigned in the Police Court. r' Officer Richardson, who has been detailed to collect street tax this year, is still busy with that work, and he will establish a record this year in the number of people summoned. So far he has served over thirteen hundred people with notices, and is not yet any where near through his ’ job. He will probably run it up to two thousand aind over before the | end of next month. In this connection it might be stated that those who have been served with notices and have not paid the tax of two dollars, will have to pay double that amount before the mayor finishes -with them. Every person who has been summoned and who have failed to pay the tax will be arraigned in the police court, and the mayor will impose a fine upon them besides the street tax. The street tax collector always has considerable trouble with the colored population, and it is a difficult job to get them all. Many of the negroes ieave the city rather than pay the tax of two dollas. They hide out and do everything possible to dodge the col lector. However, Officer Richardson keeps pretty close behind them and he suc ceeds in getting most of them. mpjjtii Brunswick Bal! Players Must Be Given a Good Name. Our baseball team must have a name.

UPTON TO FARM IN THIS SECTION * Great Tea Merchant Has Purchased Large Tract of Land. ■ -* * ■ SOMEWHERE NEAR THIS CITY Report Again Gains Ground That He is to Go Into Truck Farming Bus iness Here to Supply Lon don Market. It has often been published that Sir Thomas Upton, the great tea mer chant, had purchased a tract of land in this section of Georgia, and that he i would engage in the truck farming business. Just wlhere the tract; of land is situated no ine seems to know, 'but, from all reports it seems to be located somewhere near Brunswick. The report, some months ago. Was j printed in a New York paper, and now j the Savannah Press has learned some thing of it, and from that paper of yesterday we take the following: Sir Thomas Lipton, the great tea merchant and prince of sports, is to become a Georgia truck farmer. He ’ has already, it is rep rted„ purchased 'a large tract of land near Brunswick 'upon which he intends to raise fruits ana vegetables for the London mar- ket. “To get his products to markets he will have a number of coldstorage steamers.

That this world-traveler should select Georgia for his truck farming speaks well for the natural advantages of the state..'

Jackson, Ky., June 19.—At 8 o’clock this morning the jury in the Jette- White case for murder filed info the room and- Foreman Millard said: “Your honor, we find no chance of coming to an agreement.” Judge Redwine said:: “1 will have to keep you gentlemen until Saturday night unless you can get a veriict sooner. There is no rea son why a verdict should not be reach ed in this case.” Foreman Millard said: “One man has as much right to his opinion as another and ho might stick to it.” It is believed by this thaa there is only one man between a verdict and It was connceeded that the one man is for conviction.

C., June 19.—The Colombian congress convenes tomor row but in officials circles here this is nut regarded as bringing the Panama canal any nearer ratification, for the opposition to it, is reported as being very strong. According to the news from Bogo ta the opponents of the treaty will base their objections to the rat;! Orations upon the the theory that the French company has no rights and has nothing to sell The original concession granted to that company in 1893 was renewed by the president upon the payment, of one million dollars. He accepted the money and the company accepted the concession lmt. the action has never been ratified by the Columbian con gress and is held to be an unfinished proceeding. For this reason it is argued that the concessions now being sold by the French company to this country for forty million is illegal and therefore worthless and it is not becoming the Colombian government to participate in such a fraudulent transaction. However, the proceedings of the Col ombia will be watched with inter est here. If there Is a spirit to delay the rat ification |an unreasonable Mine the treaty negotiations will be abruptly terminated and the president will im mediately begin to carry out the in structions of congress for an arrange ment with Nicaragua and Costa Ruca for canal rights.

A movement, which bids fair to bo successful is on foot to take the First regiment band to Augusta The fund which Is needed, SB4O, will probably be raised by the members of the First regiment and by the citizens of Augusta. The matter is in abey ance at present. In answer to communications from certain citizens of Augusta, in which his opinon as to offering competitive battalion prizes was asked, Col. Gor don has answered that he deems a hand far more desirable. An eniamp ment without a band, he says, is a com plcte failure.

E. D. WALTER, Caaftlar [Bruuswlck, Oa,, June S<\ 11103, PRICE FIVE CENTS. HAS NO DESIRE FDR THIRD TERM Sage, of Princeton, Repu diates All Desire in That Line. VERY 1 HOUGH I IS /UJSIRD In an Interview Given the New York World the Forme. President Says His Highest Hope is to Restore Party Unity. New York, June 19.—The World today publishes a dispatch from Princeton quoting former President Cleveland as saying: “It is perfectly absurd to suppose for and instant that I have any desire to re-enter public life. Nor have I re - mutely entertained the thought since 1 left Washington more than six years ago. "The matter is far from my thoughts now as it was in 1896, when, as all must admit, it was not within my hearing or sight. I have no higher aspirations than to pass my day3 in peace, with my family around mo, and to take no part in politics which any private citizen cannot take with the utmost propriety. "I have never spoken to anybody on the subject of a fourth candidacy and 1 have never written a political friend one way nor the other, nor have 1 been written to or spoken to by them, "There is not a political leader of any prominence endeavoring to ad vance any movement to nominate me in any state, so far os I have been advised, nor do I anticipate any such effort will he made by any lead er, prominent or obscure, in any lo cality in the country. "I have on several occassions within the past year undertaken to perform labor that usually falls to the private ranks, but there has not lurked with in me any hope of any reward save the consciousness of having made an effort to assist In bringing about salutary conditions of the party." A SHOCK Must Be Avoided if Possible. Shock to the mind bring some most disastrious conditions to body and nerves. Then it is that food, iwiwor ful food can best show its power. As an illustration a woman of Covington, 0., says: "One day my husband while about the house dropped dead witli out moan or groan or warning of any kind and coming into the room I found him lifeless. The shock and the terrible anguish that followed were so great that In a week's time I had lost apparently all my flush and the skin became shriveled; I was so weak that I reeled and staggered about with no strength or will power to do any thing. "As time wore on I recovered just a little but not enough to make life worth the living. Ono day 1 read about a poor, skinny little baity being restored to health and Hesh on the food Grape-Nets so i resolved to try it. 1 gainel from the first box of Grape-Nuts and still more from the second and after using the third paelc agt I had strength and energy enough to go to house cleaning, something I Had never expected to do again. Tile improvement continued stead ily and I am still gaining in flesh and strength." Name given by Postuin Oh, Battle Creek, Mich Notie of Local Legislation.
