Would You Know the Reason why

Would You Know the Reason why
Our Crawford Shoe is so generally worn
in Washington by the millionaire and the
millions?
Our handmade and hand-sewed shoes
have all the good qualities of shoes for
which the retail shoe dealer, in order to
live, is obliged to charge a fancy price,
Our French Welt Goods are all sewed
to welt, and possess the durability and
comfort of shoes sold at a much higher
price.
The ready sale for our shoes enables us
to always offer fresh-made goods.
We never have ''shop-worn sale"
We make every PAIR we sell on our own
Special-Shaped Crawford Lasts.
If you have never worn pair of Craw
ford Shoes, step into our Crawford Shoe
Store, 903 Pennsylvania avenue, and try
on pair, even if you do not wish to
buy.
Ask any gentleman wearing the Craw-
ford Shoe if he is pleased with it. He
will praise it more highly than we care
to. Bouve Crawford & Co. Corporation,
makers

Grapes for Health.

The use of ripe grapes for dinner is of
incalculable benefit to the human sys-
TEN, and the Pure Grape Juice, properly
sons and invalids. The Port Grape Wine
and the Grape Juice preserved from his
own vineyards by Alfred Speer of New
Jersey, is pronounced by the leading
medical experts to be the most reliable to
he obtained. To use the Unfermented
Grape Juice is just like eating the ripe
sweet grape.

UNABLE TO BAT OR FIELD.
THE NATIONALS GIVE A MISERABLE
EXHIBITION OF PLAYING.

Defeated by COmiskey's Lads In One
Sided Contest Which Lacked Interest
Errors Were Plentiful, Base Hits
scarce--Notes from other Games
How the Clubs Stand.
The Washington team yesterday gave
the most miserable attempt at ball play
ing that has been seen this year, and dis
gusted the 200 spectators by the amateur
ish, or worse than amateurish manner in
which it played. The team in the hands
of Comiskeys men was like clay in the
hands of the potter. Themen could neither
field nor bat, and on the bases when they
reached them, which was seldom, were
like collection of statues.
Thirteen fielding errors and nine battery
errors tell the story more eloquently than
could otherwise be done. Bakely's work
in the box was Of the poorest description,
but even the best pitcher would be unable
to pitch any kind of ball, with such sup
port as he received.
II was simply case of how many runs
the st. Louis would make and the team
from the Mound City piled up runs until
the men were tired, finally stopping at an
even score. They made 10 hits with a
total of % bases, and on the bases did as
they pleased, while the Washington men
stood still and either held the ball or were
too much astonished to attempt TO check
the victorious Browns from doing what
they pleased.
The score by innings:
WashingtonO 0 0 o o. 4
st. LOUISE 3 1 3 0 0 6 2 x-20
Earned runs-St. Louis 8. Two-base
base hit-Lyons Home runs-Lyons and
