NEWPORT, May 22.-Hawley was an
enigma that Manager Smiths heavy hit
ting aggregation from Pawtucket could
not solve yesterday. Four single hits was
the best that the Maroons could do with
him. The support given Newport's great
pitcher was superb, the errors charged up
to Bean, Dinsmore and Grant being of
trivial nature and did not help Manager
Smiths men whit in their efforts to make
q circuit o; the bases.
IL was the fourth consecutive defeat that
the home team has given the Pswtuckets.
The Nowports mortgaged the game in the
first two innings and Hawley pitched such
great ball that the Pawtuckets could not
seem to connect with his curves with any
degree of success.
II was pitchers contest. Horner, who
was on the rubber for the Pawtuckets,
twirled in great form. He held the home
sters down to seven scattering hits. Cris-
ham carried OF the honors with the willow,
making three clean singles.
The fielding of both teams was sharp. A
home run by Hawley was the feature. The
score:

YOUR STOMACH KNOWS WHAT IS
GOOD FOR YOU.

Thin people are thin because the food
they eat IL not absorbed. Reasons, either
wrong food, or right food undigested.
Fat, oils and grease will not make any
one fat. This Is because they are indiges-
tible. Thin people find 1t hard to digest
their food. Fatty foods make it still
harder.
Have you ever noticed that almost with
out exception, thin, pale, dyspeptic, ane-
mic people have an aversion to fat? This
Is OF itself proof enough that such foods
are bad for them.
Let your palate tell what you eat. Ma
ture makes very few mistakes and we
should listen to what she says.
Thin people may become fatter, and
dyspeptics more comfortable by taking
the Shaker Digestive Cordial. It agrees
with the weakest stomach. 1t helps the
weak stomach digest other food. 1t is
fattening and invigorating In itself, for it
contains artificialiy digested food.
The Mount Lebanon Shakers have made
great many interesting discoveries within
the past hundred years, but none more
important than this ingenious cure for all
diseases which are traceable to faulty
digestion. A single 10 cent bottle will
tell whether 1t is adapted to your case,
and can be had through any druggist.

Voter, tho winner of the Metropolitan
Handicap, Is the recipient Of an unusual
amount of attention. Many people think
that the horse named The Winner should
have won, and would like to see another
race between these two contestants. Mr..
Keene, the owner of Voter, evidently un-
derestimated the worth Of his speedy colt,
for the latter was not entered In either the
Brooklyn or Suburban handicap. While
the race run and won by Voter was superb,
when considered from time standpoint,
it nevertheless failed to satisfy followers
OF racing.
A handicap that permits of one horse
aeadiug from flag fall to finish Is not
good one, and ten horse spring handicap

In one OF the youngsters finishes first and

What is killing tho fish In our streams,
says The Fishing Gazette, is a vital ques-
tion Of the present day. From all parts Of
our country are heard complaints Of fish
destruction through various agencies--il-
legal fishing apparatus, the use Of dyna-
mite, unreasonable capture and, worst of
all, the pollutions caused by many branches
Of manufacture and mining. Spawning
beds arc covered with mud, sawdust and
other deleterious substances; oils and
chemicals destroy the flavor Of food and
game fish and drive away the spawning
schools. Fish and high stage Of civiliza-
tion do not seem to thrive together In the

handling and by so much lessons the
actual cost OF production. Mr.. Carne-
pie's furnaces break the record and lead
the world. and in this respect have fairly
earned for him his title Of iron king. His
new furnace at Duquesne has given out
the enormous product OF over 600 tons
of pig-iron in single day, at an average
consumption of only 1000 pounds OF
coke per ton ofiron produced.
There is not furnace in England or in
the world that can approach this figure
except by the expenditure OF from four to
six hundred pounds more of coke per
ton. The cheapening OF steel thus
indicated means everything: heavier
rails and increased comfort in travel
on our railroads; heavier engines,
heavier cars and lessened cost OF
transport alton; newer forms and
expanding use of steel in all kinds OF
construction bridges, buildings vehicles,
machinery, in countless ways, and in
many lands. If the price of steel persists
at present figures in America, one does
not need the vision Of prophet to see
the iron markets of the world at no
remote date dominated by the products
of American enterprise; and this does
not necessarily involve the price OF
manual labor at lower rates in the dis
trict that now seems best suited by
nature for the easy and inexpensive
production Of iron and steel. Pittsburg
and the district of which Pittsburg is a
natural center must in the nature of
things, smelling Mesaba ores with
Connelsvile coke, submit prices that will
remain for long periods unchalenged by
the whole world.
Mr.. Carnegie and Mr.. Rockefeller seem
impressed with the duty of showing a
leading hand. If cheap steel is their
objective point with due regard to a
relatively consistent wage schedule, we
shall be among the first to applaud their
effort.

shells well around the bulbs in such
way that when the strong roots begin
to push up from the bottom of the recep-
tace they will not push the bulb itself
out of the water. This seems to me to
be about the only thing to be looked out
for. Water is the chief essential to
strong growth, and this must be supplied
frequently even to bulbs water grown,

not necessary that the bulbs should be

will keep it sweet, and little ammonia
in the water will assist in nourishne the

Last winter grew some eight bulbs in
a box, and when | say eight | mean
eight large bulbs, and these were sur
rounded by some four or five smaller
ones, so probably there were some 80 OF
40 bulbs altogether. The box was about
six inches in depth, was filled with good
soil, and the bulbs were more than hal
covered with it. They were packed il
about as closely as they could be, room
only being left through which the water
could easily run down to the thirsty
roots. The box was set i'll a south
window in room in which no fire was
kept, but opening off from one kept very
well warmed. The bulbs were watered
freely and frequently. The soil may be
almost muddy it not cold enough to rot
the bulbs. Plenty of water must be
supplied. This box was a sight to be
remembered when once seen-simply a
mass of blossoms and probably half a
dozen stalks nearly from each big bulb.

The Insurrection in Crete.

The revolt OF the Cretans against
Turkish rule has assumed such serl
Gus proportions and excites such
warm sympathy in Greece that it
appears at this writing that unless
the powers interfere war between
Greece and Turkey must ensue Crete,
100 miles long, and lying $50 miles
southeast of Athens, and much nearer
to the southern part OF Greece, has
about 800, 900 inhabitants, three
fourths of whom are Christians, and
the rest Mohammedans. The Cretans
are of Grecian descent and utilization,
and heisand geogra phicalIy belongs
to Greece. The Turks have held it
since 1863. When Greece won indie
pendence in 1921 an instruction in
Crete followed, but was put down.
The Cretans have ever since been
uneasy, and prone to make trouble
for the Turks whenever opportunity
offered. The cause of the present
revolt is practically the same as that
of the rising last April, when the
Christian governor was replaced by
Turkhan Pasha, Mussulman.
In July the Porte agreed to appoint
a Christian governor, whom it has
since nominated, but still delays to
inaugurate. 1t delays also to put
into effect reforms agreed upon
twenty years ago. The Cretan revo-
lutionistS demand that these reforms
shall be at once enforced, and pro-
pose to secure their rights by force Of
arms # they cannot get them other
wise. They are the aggressors, and
have had help from Greece, where
there is an enthusiastic popular desire
for the annexation OF Crete. There
are believed to be about twelve thous-
and Turkish troops in Crete, but
their presence has not prevented ex-
tensive preparations for the present
instruction. The Porte is under
stood to have given assurances that
no more Turkish troops would be
sent to Crete, but no reliance is
placed on the Porte's word, and it is
understood that Greece has deter
