An Fdftor,s Over-CautiOn.

Many people make mistakes and
lose q lot by being too suspicious, too
cautious. We remember the last time
we visited New York City-with which
place nobody else in DodgevilIe is
probably so familiar. A man came up
to US as we stood on our hotel steps af-
ter taking a noOntime snack at Del
monico's, and says he to US: "The ed
itor of the BGCb1UOOdsR1G7t' Banner,
[ presume!" We had the old bunco
game down fine, and, looking the man
squareIy in the eyes, we replied: You
presume too much, sir. We are not

his hat politely; q merely wished to
tender YOU ticket to the dinner Of
the Press Club this evening" He felt
hurt, and so did we. He had been re
ceived with unnecessary suspicion, and
we had missed a good dinner. We
merely mention this incident as a re-
hinder to those who are always saying

to 90 too slowly. We must risk some

The most famous bandit in Spain,
Ferdinand Guzman, is dwarf. who at
one time kept a small store in Grana-
da. He became enraged at some ac-
ton taken by the authorities, and took
to the mountains. He is hideousIy
ugly in appearance and utterly I'M
scrupulous. The romantic chivalry
attributed to Spanish bandits does not
apply to him at all. He has gathered
about him crew of the worst cut
throats in Europe, and over them he
reigns supreme. The Spanish Govern
ment has determined to arrest him
and his followers.

The Yankees are a little too smart for
the Frenchmen. The manager of the
Edison exhibit at the exposition was
approached by a journalist, who de-
manded money for reporting the pro
posed visit Of President Carnot to the
Edison department. He was induced
to make his demand to the photograph,
which he did, assuring the manager
that the President might come and go,
but there. would be no mention of the
facts in the papers if the money was
not paid. When President Carnot ar
rived the phonograph repeated what
the journalist had said, much to the
discontinue of the latter and much to
the amusement of the President.

everything, from an improved electric

In good form, but his support was wretched. az

half of the first Boston scored 8 on Arthur

four balls were pitched to the Senators in the
third inning and they went out in one, two,

half of this inning.
GOOD CHANCE.
II looked as il Washington was going to
score in the fourth, when, with the bases full
and two out Haddock struck an easy one to
Clarkson and was easily thrown out at first and
lost the chance.
The Senators Tailed in the fifth on fly by
Irwin which Kelly did not hold, Hoy's out and
Wilmot's two Dagger. on which Irwin scored on
the hit, and Wilmot made a desperate effort to
reach home, but was caught.
The Hubbites could do nothing more in the
way of scoring, while Washington added
another tally in the sixth on singles by Wise
and Irwin. Mack's out and Clarkson's failure to
handle Riddles pop fly on the short bound to
make double play and base on balls.
