WILDCATS PLAY IN
OCALA THIS WEEK
After three days' hard work over
the phone and wire, the management
of the Wildcats got disgusted with
long distance work and sent Red Ul-
rich and Jimmie Liddell into Jackson
ville with orders to get games m
Ocala for Thursday and Friday. A
phone message from these boys this
morning advises us that after run
ning their legs nearly off they have
succeeded in getting a team out of
Jacksonville to play here Thursday
and Friday. The team is based on the
Wood-McDamel team of the city
league but has some substitutes from'
the other city teams because a part
of the Wood-McDaniel team cannot
get away from work. Red and Jim
mie tell us that it is practically the
same team that licked the stuffin, out
of Lake City week before last, so we
are assured that a good pair of
games will be seen on the local park
this week. Don't forget the days,
Thursday and Friday.
The games will costthe locals $300.
Let's have a $300, crowd on Thursday
and show the boys that Ocala is be behind
hind behind her good team. By the way, are
you fans afraid you will melt? Are
you sugar or salt? Just because it
looks a little like rain don't sit down
at home and think there will be no ball
game. The Ocala park drains rapid rapidly
ly rapidly and the team can play after a rain.
Another thing to think about is the
financial end of the game. The Wild Wildcats
cats Wildcats have to pay the visiting team
for the games whether they are played
or not. If you let a little' cloud scare
you away from the game and every
other loyal (?) fan f does the same
thing, where are the gate receipts
coming from ? Think it over. Are you
loyal to your team ? It is a good team.
The best Ocala has had in years. How
about supporting it? Lake City play played
ed played Ocala before a $600 crowd and
Lake City is smaller than Ocala.
PALS BEST THE WILDCATS
IN A TWELVE-INNING GAME

baseball treat yesterday when the
Ocala Wildcats gave them a twelve twelve-inning
inning twelve-inning struggle before they came out

Ulrich did the tossing for the Wildcats

Pals. Epp was in fine form and went
the twelve innings in good style. Red
had a bad first inning but after that
things went along nip and tuck until
the seventh when Epp eased up enough
to let the Wildcats make a couple, of
tallies. The Pals made two runs in
the first inning when they got four
hits off Red and an error from the
Ocala lads. Callahan was the first
man at bat andhit the first pitched
.ball for a home run. Things looked
blue for the Wildcats but after the
Pals made one more run in that in
ning it was nothing to nothing until
the seventh when Ocala made two runs
and tied the score. From then until
J the last of the twelfth
neither side
j scored but a couple of two-baggers in
i the twelfth gave the Pals the winning
' run. Jimmie Liddell iriade a couple
of stellar catches in center field that
won the applause of the grand stands.

OCALA TWENTY YEARS AGO
The Dearborn Independent tells the
following of Galveston, but it applies
to many other American cities.
"Some time ago, the grand jury m
Galveston, Texas, presented to tne
court a report that conditions m con
nection with the illegal sale of liquor
were deplorable. They probably were.
n many American cities at the pres
ent time, bootlegging is rampant. The
number of cities in which the public
officials nowadays proclaim their dis
regard for prohibition is small. It is
rapidly approaching zero. The num
ber of cities in which genuine en
forcement of the law is accomplished
in a degree commensurate to the en
forcement of other laws is also small.
But this latter number is increasing,
Between these two types of cities
there is another which embraces the
vast majority of cosmopolitan towns
This latter is the city in which boot
legging goes on, saloons camouflaged
as soft-drink places sell new-made
liquor, and officialdom either tolerant
ly ignores blind pigs or hopelessly ac acknowledges
knowledges acknowledges its weakness in the face
of open violation of the law. It is to
this type of city that Galveston be belongs.

nor worse than scores of other cities
in America. But there is a situation
in Galveston that is deplorable. It is
this: Mayor Keenan announced he
would name twenty-five good citizens
as special officers, empowered to
bring about the enforcement of the
prohibition law. He first planned to
keep the names secret, but this idea
brought a storm of disapproval from
those who believed that it would open
the way for impersonations of officers
and oppressions. Then the mayor ap
pointed twenty-five good citizens ,as
special officers and made their names
public.
"And the twenty-five good citizens,
including seven members of the grand
jury, refused to serve.
"That is the condition that is most
deplorable. Not alone in Galveston,
but all over the country, the very citi citizens

what is wrong, content themselves
with criticizing what is wrong and re refuse

game was not a well played one as
several bad errors were made on both

mates prevented this, Overstreet and
Rymer were the hitting stars of the
day, each getting three safeties at as
many trips to the plate. Fort fielded
well, not missing any of the four

The Conflagration.

Mr. Phayre," Wilton had said when he
left the office. And he had meant it.
Without any further hope of keeping
the line for Kitty, he resolved, for the
work's sake, that the day when the

same condition as when he had left it.
Andersen reported that the men were
still getting liquor, and were slacking.
Wilton, whose mind had no room for
rival propositions at the same time,
dismissed the subject. He went
straight to bed. But he was aroused
by Andersen a little after midnight.
"There's a big blaze a couple of
miles north of us," said the foreman.
"Sprung 'up like lightning. And a
gale's sweeping up the swamp. The
men won't turn out to backfire. They
say it's Saturday night and most of
them are drunk."
Wilton put on his clothes quickly.

and hurried to the bunkhouses. The
workmen obeyed his summons with
slow sullenness. They were stupid
with drink. Some Jeered ; some refused
to turn out at all.
But some of the engineers and fore foremen

scene, Wilton collected these and

The line of fire shot through the,
