ing this, there Were gulues seldom ex-

tabIished record for pitching which
proved to the fans they had regu-
lar score masher in the box BESIDES
being Il good pitcher, Hall is II very
useful man at the bat and showed his
running prOclivities We're in his heels
and not his head as is the case with
most pitchers Dtonnor. Greenwood s
catchers proved u good support. The
battery Of the visitors, Munette and
Love, was also fine, but our boys got
onto his curves and made many base
hits off Of the Durant twirler. 1t was
the batting of Winks that took the
crowd. Most Of the boys played good
ball but little third base,nan Holmes, Of
the Greenwood team, by his safe hits
and fine base running, won the ap
plause of the grand stand. With the
exception of the second baseman, the
visiting teams were upsa clever jolly,
good natnred, gentlemunly set of Young
men who we We're proud to meet and
entertain. In Thursdays game with
Dnrant pitcher Balls arm gave out in
the second inning and he retired from
the diamond. D'COnnnor, catcher of
Greenwood's team, took the box. This
ratified the home boys and even with

failed them and with only two scores
to their credit while Durant had nine,

in MeDouatd Miller Affair
| To ho editor of The Commonwealth,

through your columns the part took
in it.
AT the time Mcdonald WAS killed, |

came home Mt six o'clock, | was in
formed that Miller had been tried and

honr and thought the whole matter
over, | knew that without some addi.
tional testimony he would never have

came to the conclusion that there must
have been some damaging testimony
before the grand jury, something that
had not been made known, 10 cause all
Of this hnste.
In this frame Of mind | went up
town and Il friend nslcd me if | had
signed the petition | told him that

to do SO, ! told MIN that it depended
upon circumstances, | wanted to first

There is not man in the country

They Were Not Burglars.

The tramps that were arrested by the
officers upon suspicion of being burg
lars, proved not to be burglars, but
were sent to Jail fer carrying con-
cealed weapons and riding on freight
trains. Three who gave their names as
Thomas Jones, James Clark and Chas. T.
Smith, were tried before Justice Byers,
and all three sent to jail for thirty days
for carrying concealed weapons.
The other three, who gave their names
as John Smith, Thomas Hays and James
sylvester, were tried before Justice Mar
tin, and sentenced to twenty days in Jail
the. two former for carrying weapons and
the latter for trespassing upon the rail-
road. George Hopkins. another one ar
rested by Officer Dutrow, was also given

All had razors except one, who had "A
calibre revolver.
The officers are keeping the watch each
night for burglars.
Baltimore " Slim was seen in the city

A rlidnight Breakfast.

Like Dewey and some of the other bold
men, the robbers stopped in the midst OF
their bold exploits for breakfast on Tues
day morning During the night they
entered the house of Mr.. NJ G.. Tabler
but nothing was known Of their visit until
next evening. Nothing was missed
from the house, except from the refriger-
ator, which was relieved of its entire con-
tents,
When the cook went to get dinrer on
Tuesday she went to the refrigerator to get
some things t. at had been left there the
day before, but when she got there the
cupboard was barre the robbers had
taken their share and left Mr.. Taber
none.
The cook thought that Mr.. Tabler had
gone to the refrigerator when he came
home at night and relieved it of its con-
tents. When he went home to dinner
she asked him If he had and he replied to
the contrary. The thought then came to
his mind that Burglars had been in his
house and upon looking around he found
the catches broken off of the rear shutters.
Nothing else has been missed in the

Runaway.

About O'Clock Monday evening. the
runaway team of MIR. c. Fl. Wolfes caus-
ed quite a stir on Queen and Martin
streets. The horse was hitched to the
delivery wagon. Charles Yontz. who
works for Mr.. Wolfes, was just going to
put the team away, and when he turned
around in the street the front wheel of
the wagon dropped off. This scared the
horse and he started off at swift gait.
When he reached the corner of Queen
and Martin streets the young man Jump
ed out of the rear end of the wagon and
the horse turned towards the B. & O.
depot.
All this time the wagon was running on
three wheels, and when it reached the B.
4 o. depot it ran over the embankment
at the end of the railing and upset. The
horse then broke loose from the wagon
and with the shafts still fastened to him,
started down Water street and was
caught in front of the Electric Light
House. The harness was all torn TO
pieces, but the horse was not hurt. The
only damage done to the wagon was 10
he shafts and seat, which were de-
molshed.

Is Ii Malaria or Alum =?

Languor, loss OF appetite, indigestion
and often feverishness are the common
symptoms OF physiological condition
termed malaria" All these symptoms
may be and frequently are the effect of
the use of alum baking powders in food
making. There is no question about the
poisonous effect of alum upon the system.
1t obstructs digestion, prostrates the
nerves, coagulates and devitaIizes the
blood. All this has been made clear,
thanks to physicians, boards of health.
and food commissions. So highly in
furious to the health of the community ;"
does the eminent head of the University
of Pennsylvania, DR.. Barker, consider the
alum baking powders, that he says ''their
sale should be prohibited by law.
Under these circumstances it is worth
the while of every housewife to employ
the very little care that is necessary to
keep so dangerous an element from the
food of her family.
A pure cream of tartar baking powder
which is the only kind that should be
used, ought to cost about forty-five to
fifty cents pound. Therefore, if you are
paying much less, something is wrong; if
you are paying twenty-five cents or less
per pound, the powder is certainly made
from alum.
Always bear these simple facts in
mind when purchasing baking powder,

Rouss' Gift Rejected.

The Board of County Supervisors
of Winchester have declined the gift oi
Mr. Charles Broadway Rouss of $4,000
which he made to the city Of Winchester
for the erection of a bubble building
Monday after session between the board
and a committee Of the City Council
which lasted until Monday night. the
board refused to accept the proposition
upon which the gift was conditioned.
The proposition was that the country
should grant permission to the city to
erect public building upon the Market
Square. which is now the subject of suit
between the town and country for owner
ship. The property was to stand in the
name Of both town and county. as here
tofore. and surrounding the building was
to be public park for the joint use Of
both. In lieu Of hitching yard. for which
the Market Square is used the proposition
offered large lot recently purchased by
Mr.. Rouss. which was to be maintained
by the city. and upon which the city was
to erect sheds and buildingst to be used by
the county people.
The request tor a counter proposition
from the board was also refused. The gift
Of 10000 is therefore abrogated. It's stat
ed, however that the matter will be
held up until the Supreme Court Of Vir-
ginia renders decision in the suit Of the
town against the county for possession of
the Market Square, and in event Of the
citys-winning, the public building will be
erected on the square.
