The pain from slight burns is very great.
An excellent application is thick paste
of common baking soda moistened with
water, spread on piece of linen or cot
ton, and bound on the part. This can be
kept wet by squeezing water on it from u
sponge or cloth until the smarting is sooth
ed.
A thick coating of starch can be used
instead of the soda, or wheat flour if moth
ing better can be had, but neither should
be applied if the skin is broken. In this
case it is better to use vaseline, olive or
linseed oil. The doctor will apply some
preparation containing carbolic acid.
If the air be etfectually excluded from a
burn, the pain is relieved.
Blisters should be pricked and the fluid
absorbed with n soft cloth before dressing.
If the clothing adheres to the skin, the
loose part should be cut away and the
patches of material soaked off with oil or
warm water.
When the injury is extensive, the suffer
er will be Frustrated and may die from the
shock. Heat should be applied to the ex-
tremities and over the heart, and hot
drinks given until the doctor comes.
In burns from strong acid the part
should be covered with dry baking soda
or lime, as the alkali will neutralize the
acid. No water should be used, but cos
moline or oil applied after the alkali has
been brushed off.
When the burn has been caused by an
alkali, an acid must be used. A person re-
covering from the effects of burn re-
quires very nourishing food. = Ladies'

The game OF ball yesterday afternoon
between teams composed OF members
OF the Piedmont Club, OF Lynchburg,
and the Shenandoah Club, Of this city,
afforded great deal of amusement to
the $50 spectators present.
The Lynchburg contingent arrived in
Roanoke in a special car attached to
the 4:3o train and numbered about forty
ladies and gentlemen. The members
OF the team repaired at once to Hotel
Roanoke, where they donned their war
paint, and then went to the grounds in
bus. The o:hers in tho party went
out In the electric cars or in private
conveyances.
In the meantime the gentlemen who
were'to battle for the Shenandoah Club
were.on the grounds getting in little
preliminary practice. but their time was
evidently too short, for when the game
com menced they seemed 10 forget all
the points they had learned. THE
TIMES reporter started in to keep tho
tabulated score of the game, but when
i've Roanoke players each made an err
ror on the second ball hit he gave up the
attempt, and Mike, TEE TIMES dog.
sneAKeu out OF the grounds with very
disgusted look on his face. 1t is to be
regretted that tabulsted score was not
kept as it would have been good thing
to show to the Roanoke team whom thew
return home TO day. Perhaps they
could get some valuable pointers from t.
The game opened with Lynchburg at
the bat, and they made FIVE runs in the
first inning through the brilliant mis-
playing of the home team. Then Roa-
noke came in and made an equal nun Der
ofruns, principally through the catcher's
passed balls That is tho only time tho
game was in doubt. Tho Lynchburgs
had everything their own way, and when
Umpire Nevins called it at the end OF
the fifth inning the score stood is to 10.

Tho german given at Hotel Roanoke
by the Shenandoah Club to their guests,
the Piedmonts and their ladies, proved
to be very delig ht ful affair 1t was
very informal in many respects, and for
this reason perhaps moro enjoyable.
In addition to the bevy of beautiful
young ladies from the Hill City who
came to cheer on 10 victory the ball
tossers of Lynchburg's leading social
organization, there was the usual con-
tingent Of Roanoke's reigning bellies
and beaux, who had accepted the kind
invitations of the Shenandoah Club.
Dancing was INDUCED in Until nearly
IL o'clock, to the music of the Roanoke

RICHMOND, June 0.-The game 20 day
between Roanoke and Richmond was
won by the latter by score OF 80 to l0
Home runs were secured whenever the
batter desired to exert himself suiiicl-
emily. The visitors started in in the
first by hammering Snyder, the Cincin-
natl Dutchman, TO the tune OF five clean
hits, while the Westerner struck one
man, gave another four balls, made
wild pitch, and permitted a runner to
reach first by an awkward tumble.
This, together with Tate's error,
passed ball by Grim, as we'll as an er.
ror. gave the Roanokes nine runs 81.
lence in the grand stand reigned SUI
preme, and McHooveter, the moon faced
man, who does some voluminous vocal
work by way Of coaching, did not fail to
announce the fact in his peculiar stem
torian tone.
In the second the Bloody Shirts scored
twice, owing to the poor work of Boyd
and the ragged fielding of the visitors,
who got conspicuous goose egg by way
OF surprise To themselves. Then it was
that the heavy stick work commenced.
In the third Kahn lined out Lively
double for the Legislators. This created
some commotion among the expert
rooters. and they increased their lung
power when the athletic little shortstop
scored on McGanns single.
Tate then hit for a home run, Foster
went out, Boyd to Crockett, Morgan got

The advocate., 1894-02-21

ONn Of the favorite Populistic attacks on
the truth is the assertion that the present
secretary Of state is turning over the fees
OF his ofloe, while his republican predeCes-
sor retained them. Under she old law the
secretary Of state was paid $4,000 and fees.
The legislature Of 1890, by bill introduced
By Bent Murdook, the republican senator
from Butler, changed the law 90 as to in
crease the salary to $500 per year and
give the fees TO the state. Therefore the
change should be credited 10 the republican
senate of 1890, and not to che Pop secretary
Of state, who can't hOlp himself. f.-EmpOEia
Gazette.
1t matters not who may be entitled
to credit for the introduction Of the
law, the fact remains that the re-
publican secretary Of state continued

to the end Of his term to pocket the
fees after its adoption just as he did
before. This is the Populist conten-
tion, not who introduced the law. II
the "POp" secretary turns over the
fees because he "Can't help himself"
how did the republican secretary help
himself?
