"Threats of Reporting"

Conductors, motormen, elevator
men, janitors, walters. and men who
follow kindred occupations know so
well that men and women frequently
make the threat Il will report you
merely as a blum, and that the aver
age person will suffer Inconvenience
and annoyance rather than have n
man discharged, that they often take
advantage of the act TO the discomfort
of the public. This charity on the part
Of the public was spoken of as Grim
inal neglect a few days ago in one of
the large downtown office buildings.
A man came into the hallway, and.
hearing the starter call Going up
stepped into an elevator which was so
crowded that he had to force himself
into the space. The door remained
open, and the late arrival discovered
that the crowded car was waiting for
the elevator man. He stepped out and
asked the starter if he knew that il
was wrong to allow people in the ele-
yator when there was no attendant
there to take care Of it. He simply
grinned and slammed the door OF the
elevator. which had finally begun its
trip under the management of the tar
dy conductor.
Don't you know that a child in that
car or a drunken man or a meddlesome
person might have started the car and
that number of people might have
been killed." asked the man.
The starter gave an impertinent an
swer, and when he was told that he
would be reported leered at the man
and said: go ahead and report
If an accident had taken place in
that elevator there would have been
little sympathy for the people who
We're so foolhardy as TO enter it under
those circumstances. Yet no one re-
ported the man who would have been
responsible for the accident. and he is
still in charge of the elevators. and
will probably remain there calling

Bad management keeps more

so that when a favorable opportunity

THE past week has been an active
and victorious one for high school
athletics. On Friday afternoon the
base ball nine played against Crum's
''Terrors" and defeated them by a
score of 10 to 6. This does not show
that Crum's aggregation did not put
up good game of ball. for several Of
them showed that they had not for
gotten the art in which they were at
one time adopts. The "Terrors" be-
gan in fine form, making three runs
in the second inning, and holding
the high school down until the 9th
when the boys went ahead with a
score of seven runs. The men made
three more runs in the next inning,
but that was the last time any of
them made successful sprint from
Bird to the plate. The boys used the
innings and for running the cir
cult of the bases and then the game
was finished. The business men
showed marked abilities in bali
playing during the first part of the
game, but did not seem to have good
staying qualities. Their muscular
energy may be judged from the fact
that they broke two bats. Dave
Jacka pitched for the ''Terrors" and
struck out 6 men. Nickerman was
in the box for the high school for
innings, striking out men, and dur
ing the last inning H. Crawford
and cambridge were the battery.
Crawford struck out two of the "Ter-
rors" and obtained two strikes on the
third batsman and was finally hit
only for an in-field fly and the game
ended there.
FRIDAYS victory was followed up
by our boys defeating the Linden
high school team in this city on
Saturday by a score of 30 to "a. For
the first half of the game the local
team kept ahead of the visitors and
and when the 18th inning began were
6 tallies ahead, but the Linden boys
did good work with the stick during
the remaining innings so that at the
end of the 9th the score stood "a to a.
During the 10th inning the locals
ran in runs and then put out the
Linden batsmen in one, two, three
order. There was great excitement
in the 10th but Vickerman pitched
in fine form and the rest of the team
did good work thus winning the
game. In the last two contests our
nine has shown what it can do when
forced to get down to work with cir
cumstances permitting and encour-
aging an exhibition of good ball
playing on it's part. Following is
the score by innings:

Hot Springs, Va, May 1S.-President
Mckinley has not yet given considera-
tion to the subject Of an extra session
Of congress. This statement was made
officially here last night, and was
brought forward by published an
nouncements that an extra session had
been decided upon on the one hand
and on the other that such a session
would not be called.
The dispatch of General Otis re-
garding the capture Of San Isidro by
General Lawton, and his forcing of the
scattered insurgent ranks into the
mountains. was forwarded here by the
war department. The news 1t bore
was so pleasing to Mr.. Mckinley that
he Immediately sent his congratula-
tions to General Lawton In the follow
ing telegram:
ITO Otis, Manila: Convey to General
Lawton and the gallant men of his
command my congratulations upon
the successful operations during the
past month, resulting in the capture
this morning of San Isidro."
The presidents visit here is nearly
at an end. 1t is almost certain that
the party will reach Washington some
time Saturday. The rest from Official
routine, the freedom from intrusion
and the exercise in the open air has
given the president the recuperation
he needed.
