The) More About The Game In Vicksburg Last Tuesday The Vicksburg Post gives the fol - 1 lowing account of the game in Vicks i ! burg Tuesday: "The 3-2 game that HaUiesburg I took from Vicksburg yesterday left a ! bad taste iu the mouth. True sports -1 manshlp was lacking and the game j was not decided on its merits. j The rouble arose due to the ah senre or a regular umpire and the, ■ substitution of players, botli of whom ! fudged for their respective teams. "in the ninth inning Hattiesburg had played their half and Vicksburg had two men on the sacks and only one down when Bandy, who was um piring behind the pitcher, called the game on account of rain. "There was only a moderate sprin kle, and the game could easily have continued for the next half hour. "Vicksburg had a splendid chance to win and may have done so had the i game gone along. Hats Robbed "That is one aide of the picture. Now look at the other In the eighth Inning Gondolfi was on third and Mad den on first for the visitor- Madden tried to pilfer second and Danny dashed for the plaie.

There -uldn t bave been the shadow of a doubt that he was safe, but Comstock who was • one of the umpires declared him oui j I I ^ "Hattiesburg took their rutiioine and said nothing.

Up to the present Vicksburg has got the best of Carlos Smith's team in the different clashes. , Neither manager, at present, is thinking much about strengthening, for the teams are working fine and it is hard to improve on the present line-ups. Manager Smith, who lias been out of the game for a week or so, lias been greatly missed by his club, for he is a tower of strength with his hat. but in spile of his absence the club has made a good showing and has liov ered about the top all the time.—Vicks burg Post. made a pretty toss to first. Harb in the effort to field the ball had to get on the path and in doing so Crichlow collided with him. Crichlow was out, clearly so, but Comstock called him safe, and this was what gave the Vicksburgers their opportunity in the ninth. Vicksburgers could not squeal much about Bandy'« calling of the game. After Bandy called the game on ac count of rain, Manager Mills entered a protest. "Vicksburg got off in the lead. Mills' triple and a passed ball gave the home lads one In the opener. Sparks banged a home run over left field fence in the third. "Hattiesburg got their bunch of tal lies in the fourth.

C., June 22.— "Prob ably the greatest travelers in tile, world are the railway mail clerks," said a local official recently in dis- , cussing the growth of the mail ser- i vice. "During the year 1908 this trav-i el amounted to the equal of one man ' riding 629,778,443 miles, a distaV-c approximately seven times greater | than that which separates the s„ from the earth.

Then : too, the weight of these men may Heem an insignificant feature as in dividuals, yet in the aggregate their free transportation equals that of mm * | than 50,000.000 tons for one mile, In view of the fact that the cost j of transporting the mails is increas ing far more rapidly than the pay for ! roads with a total mileage of than 200,000 are endeavoring to work | out some satisfactory plan of relief _ _ __ li- this service, such items as these be- ! a come doubly Important.

In view of the fact that a system of milk inspection is being considered in Hattiesburg the suggestions of Mr. Duncan are of exceptional interest. ] They are as follows: "The first consideration under this subject should be the health of the cows. "The tuberculin test should be ap plied to all cows that are to be used for the production of milk for the public, at least once in every twelve months. "The milk from all cows one month before and at least ten days after parturition should be excluded from sale to the public. "The dairy herd should have room for proper exercises and access to an abundance of fresh water. "In establishing a dairy plant the location is an important matter that should have due consideration. The dairy premises must be absolutely free from dangerous contaminating sur ! roundings. The dairy barn should be constructed as to afford at least 500 cubic feet of air for each cow-. "The barn should have a watertight floor, constructed either of cement or sound hard lumber. "Each dairy must be provided with a well constructed milk house, sepa- j rated at least ten feet from the dairy j barn and the same should be at least ; 100 feet from buildings occupied by ! other animals. | "Ample arrangements for an abun dance of hot water or steam heat of should be provided, with an arrange ment of washing sinks for thoroughly washing, scalding or sterilizing all dairy utensils and milk containers, "The barn should be thoroughly clean at all times and some good dis , infectant should be used freely to keep i down all odors, 'The cows should be fed at least ' one hour before each milking. Each r.-.t-st be kept clean groomed -Romo one of the several types of nanow top, improved, sanitary milk palis should be used in which to drav. the milk, and neatly "The temperature of the milk must bo reduced down to at least 50 de grecs Fahreinheit, or lower, if possi ble, within, drawn. one hour after being "Ätilk in sealed packages for the re tail trade must be bottled in clean, sterilized bottles, only in a properly * constructed and equipped milk house or dairy depot.
