How are you worth anything to The boy very mnch encouraged told hie interrogator that whenever a player wanted to make a base hit he just uncovered his head and let the player run his hand through his wool Mr Mayberry told Werrick and the rest of the players about it and they immediately began to rub their hands through the Straw Goods! The Pennsylvania Hat Co will receive more Straw Hats this week than all other houses in Nashville Wholesale and Retail combined It is the custom of Wholesale Houses not to buy any straw goods after the middle of May and the first of June the retailers begin to work ofi their old stock when they know that you have to wear a Straw Hat till October It is vary well for them to be cautious if it is not done at your expense We can show you a larger assortment fresh from the factories than any other house baa at the beginning of the season and prices 50 per cent lower Did you know that

incidental to the fint part of every month prevented any thought of rest in the office In the department of Secretary of State there was nothing exoept the granting the various applications foT charters that came in In the offices of the Governor Adjutant General Commissioner of Agriculture and Immigration Referee Court State Board of Health and Superintendent of Public instruction the same monotony prevailed yesterday's charters Charters were registered for the Arkansas River Packet Company the Standard Oil Mill Company and the Manhattan Savings Bank Ail three charters go to Memphis The incorporators in the last named organization are Messrs Mllbnrn Nspoleon Hill Wm Kat-zenberger Louis Hsraner Edward Gold-amith 0 Neely and James Robinson PERSONAL Mr Loots McWhirter Commissioner for Tennessee of the American Exposition London England and Acting Commissioner for Tennessee at the Ik Industrial and Cotton Centennial Exposition New Orleans La has returned looking as though the Creole climate of Louisiana agreed with him After a sojourn otwo or three weeks at The Inaugural game of the present series between the Nashville and Columbus was an easy go-as-you-please victory for tbs former The visitors made nine fielding errors sad only three ODe-base hits The nearest theycame to scoring was to get one runner on second base The locals on the contrary played great ball maklDg sixteen bast-hits with a total of nineteen bases and having only one error to mar tot record The playing of all was very fine and everybody is sanguine as to their ultimate success Voss and Marr were faultless The former besides pitching so well rriade a number of brilliant assists and one regular Police Gazette double play that fairly upset the grand stand Marr 'did not have an error passed ball or break of any kind It was the fourth straight game in which he has caught but he seems to grow better every day Werrick had a number of chances and accepted them all The individual however who was subjected to the closest scrutiny and criticism wss the new right fielder Sneed who played for the first time with the Naahvillea yesterday He was fortunate in having in thie game snch excellent opportunities for showing np his skill He cangbt two flies and from right field assisted three grounders to first in time to pat out three batsmen and qn what seemed when made to be safe hits At the bat he showed himself to be as strong as elsewhere The record of the scorer gives him two single hits and one two-bagger The heavy field prevented the first two from being double baggers and the last from sending him safely to third He if also a good base-runner and adds one more to the number of Nashville's phenomenal Taken all in all Sneed made a great reputation yesterday Beard and Sowders also hit very bard and were closely followed up by Marr Werrick and Vosa The locals could undoubtedly have made more scores had they tried The only thing that occurred to mar in any way the pleasure of the game was the rather hasty conduct of Umpire Mc-e Guying at umpires and players is a thing that should be frowned down DR CHARLES THOMPSON (LATE OF KNOXVILLE TENN) OFFICE Do 7 SOUTH SPRUCE STREET

and charge it to the railroads There is no snch thing as controlling the weather even FOR A Sstnrday morning was ushered in with thunder lightning and rain and those who had arranged to greet the rise of the sun from the highest point of the mountain turned over and forgot their patriotism in another nap Some boys did try to get up a little enthusiasm with a pack of fire crackers and half a handful of powder but the weather got the best of it The fire-crackers sizzed and sputtered and went ont and the gunpowder made no effort at all About noon however the sun came out bright inspiring glorious The first thing presented though not on the programme was a dog fight No courtesies were extended the representatives of the press but a Vanderbilt professor and a Mississippi Congressman who had prominent parts in the exercises report the brindle dog a way that brindle dogs have In the afternoon a party of some two dozen took a tramp to Table Rock and the Leaning Tower Here was beauty grandeur patriotism around us and behind us rose the gloqmy crags and heights of the mountain far far below hidden by sour wood chestnut and oak yawDed a chssm almost 400 feet down Before cs dark with foliage another peak lifted its snmmer crowned head to heaven beyond this another range dim with the distance and purple with cloud stretched a long unbroken front to bound the horixon Climbing up or half way up the side of a high rock which leaned over the loet chasm below we found a cleft large enough for a safe foot bold and seated there under the brow of the grim old sentinel of the Cumberland

work very well Bnt in Columbns they won three games and likewise at Birmingham When they went on the gronnds at Macon they were almost paralyzed by seeing their opponents score five runs In the first Inning The coon was called for submitted his head to the rubbing of the players and they won So it was throughout the trip only four games being lost or as he is called traveled all through the circuit with them his railroad fare for the round trip being only 50 cents He traveled nearly all the way under the seats or berths of Bleeping cars Yesterday he was on the grounds doing tbe fancy for home-plate in the way of sweeping it off Sneed the new player was told of the wonderful powers of the coon to infuse base-bits into a man aDd he worked the charm with the excellent result that is given in the record above He and Beard and Werrick rubbed so hard that they each made two base hits It is fesred that if the Columbus team do any better in their next two games here they will be tempted to take off with them The Nsshvilles however to a man guard him and when he goes they will likely go also As long as be stays with the Nashvilles Atlanta Augusta and Memphis can have no chance for the pennant ATLANTA Special to The American Atlanta Ga July The game today between Atlanta and Augusta was the most interesting ever played on the home grounds and resulted in a tie Over 2000 people were on tbe grounds 500 coming from Augusta and on tbe of the Georgia Railroad Kilroy and Roxburg acted as battery Dandon and Mappis for Atlanta Tbe most remarkable feature oi tbe game was the catch of Clarke right fielder for Atlanta who canght a line fly running backward thirty feet and turning a simersault McVey center field ran for a high fly tripped and caught it with one hand while on the ground The excitement was intense throughout the game At the end of the tenth inning the score was tied and on account of darkness the game was called Score by innings: Atlanta 002000000 0-2

account of the wet ground ST LOUIS 5 PROVIDENCE 4 St Louis Mo July Dick Burns made hisinaugural appearance as a member of the St Louis Club and distinguished himself in the sixth inning upon by all real lovers of the great game but there are times when even umpires may become childish and act foolishly thnq bringing npon their decisions and actions the deserved contempt of a better informed and more gentlemanly class who come to the park to see the games The following is the record Five Thousand Cates of Tobacco Burned 8500000 Loss Madison Wis July 6 One of the most disastrous fires that ever occurred in this section of tbe 8 'ate took place at Stoughton yesterday burning ten out of thirteen large tobacco ware-houses the St Paul depot and about twenty freigh care loaded with wheat and other merchandise causing a loss estimated all the way from $500000 to $1000000 The fire originated in an old hay-press used as a box factory The tobacco warehouses were all owned by New York and Philadelphia tobacco houses Oppenbeimer Co Rosenwald Co Cohen Co ana John Mark of Chicago being among the losers The fire probably created the greatest destruction of tobacco that ever occurred in the United States at one time from that cause It is estimated that one-third of the entire tobacco crop of last year was consumed There were about 9000 cases stored in the warehouse ready for shipment These casee were worth about $50 apiece thus making the lose on tobacco about $450000 The warehouses were worth about $2 500 each making an additional loss of $25000 The depot was a large frame structure which had been recently repaired so that it was almost entirely new A large amonnt of freight stored in the depot was saved The freight ora whicn were homed were standing on the side track and in the excitement of the fire it was impossible to remove them to a safe location Nothing can be learned of the origin of the fire The general opinion however is that it was started by some Fourth of July patriot who was careless in the use of fire works This makes the second destrnctive conflagration which has visited 8tonghton within a year or two past Not loDg sgo carriage works one of the largest institutions of tbe kind in the state were totally consumed with a large loss The loss from fire is partially covered by insurance though the exact amount could sot be learned The loss of the companies represented by A Main of this city is $58500 The individual losses fall mostly on Eastern buyers though someof tbe Stoughton buyers lost from $25000 to $75000 and will be ruined by it Tbe disaster will throw about 500 people out of employment BLOODED 8TOOK BUBNED Janesville Wis July Jas large stock farm stable at Fulton Rock County was destroyed by fire early this morning together with
