Ball Notes.

Strange as it may seem. Taunton has
better backing than Bangor ever had,
and is drawing more people to the games
The first part of that statement is all rot
and nobody knows it better than the man
who printed it. Neither Taunton or any
other New England League club ever had
such backing as Bangor had while in the
New England League. 1t was practically
unlimited backing. What more could be
desired ?-Bangor Commercial. Right
you are. And the time was when Tim
othy Fl. was hot enough after Bangor's
support, Ell?
Bangor Commercial: Three hundred or
more people saw Thursdays contest,
Augusta VS.. Bangor) and witnessed some
phenomenal fielding. Birmingham drove
Il liner past third base that was marked
for three bags. but Delaney made a Won
derful one-handed stop and threw the
batter out at first. Newell pitched good
game but Augusta punched hits in the
first and third innings and the game was
clinched. Newell made quick throw in
the fifth inning and caught Veitch nap
ping at first. Hayes threw two men out.
and he caught three foul flies in his old
time style. Handiboe made great catch
of a foul fly in the right garden, which
he picked off the fence. In the seventh
inning Newell and Gildea had a scrap"
The former claimed that Gldea inter-
ferod with him in going after a foul fly.
Gildea hft the next ball and Newell threw
him out al first.

ruBeRcuLIN IS ALL RIGHT.
II Carefully Prepared and Used u will MOI
Injure Cows.

Portland, June 1.-THE Board of
Health has received this communica-
ton from d. E. Salmon, chief of the
bureau of animal industry of the United
States department Of agriculture on the
tuberculin test:
In reply to your letter of the LIST in
slant, addressed to the secretary of
agriculture. would say that the ex-
periments made by DR.. De Schweinitz
of this bureau, as well as by others in
this country and abroad. show that
cows are not injured in the slightest
degree by the injection of tuberculin.
so long as the material has been care
fully and properly made.
Experiments with reference to the
quantity of milk given by animals be-
fore and after the injection, show that
the variation in amount Is practically
not worthy of consideration, unless the
animal gives reaction for tuberculosis.
So far as the effect of tuberculin on
healthy animals is concerned, there is
not the slightest ground for fearing any
bad results if the tuberculin used is
reliable.

PORTLAND'S FIRE BUG.
After Rest Of Few Weeks He Again Com.
mences Business.

Portland, June 11.--Portland's mys-
FERROUS hallway fire bug who has not
been in evidence for the past few weeks,
appears to have resumed his nefarious
business, as an incendiary blaze was
discovered, yesterday, in the hall
way on the third floor of business
block right in the retail commercial
center of the city. Timely discovery
by an occupant of the building averted
a serious fire. The police are working
on the case, but are meeting with no
better success than attended their in
vestigations of the many similar crimes
in the past.
