Pelham at The State Con¬
vention.
Ruito a number of tiie Joe Brown
rooters or adherents went to the
^fcal.e convention and have returned
home. They report a great time
and a great convention. They say
every tiling was nicely oiled and all
dwelt m brotherly love together.
Some of them saw the governor
elect and one went so far as to say
he shook hands with him. This was
not, at the convention hall, but at
the Kimball House. Mr. Brown
didn’t attend the convention, so they
sav, but his wife and children^did.
Due of the Pelhamites rays Mr.
Brown is even smaller in stature
than lie heard he was, from what lie
says, a man who tips the scales for
anything like 100 pounds would be a
Goliath beside the new governor.
This same convention attendant
from Pelham thinks, after seeing
Mr. Brown and conversing with
him. that the people have acted
wisely m their choice of a man for
chief executive.
He says Mr. Brown is not a good
mixer, lias an impassible gulf be¬
tween himself and good looks, that
he is unassuming and that he likes
nothing so well as he does to be
hermetically sealed up in his office
and he thinks in his quiet way our
next governor will wisely administer
*mr affairs. So let us hope that
Brown and business. Brown and
Bread, Brown and Prosperity,
■vv wages and the full dinner pail,
will all follow hard upon the heels
ol Mr. Brown’s nomination and that
we will not have to wait for so many
$?f>od things till Little Joe actually
puts on the harness.

should drift into remark^ about the

Baseball.
Pelham Vs. Dawson.
A very exciting game of ball was
pulled off on the Pelham diamond
yesterday afternoon, which resulted
in the defeat of Dawson; the score
beingi) to 7. Melton did the twirling
for Dawson, and at times had the
Pelham boys guessing. Stewart of
Pelham pitched a nice game through¬
out, and had he been given the proper
support the score would have been
different. Newkirk deserves especial
mention for his spectacular catch.
He played good ball from start to fin¬
ish and at the bat lit 1 was not lack¬
ing.
The Dawson boys have a cracking
good team, and in the double header
this afternoon Pelham will have to
be on her toes to defeat them.
The box score as follows:
