DEATH BY PTOMAINE.
Prisoner Nearly Killed By Effects of
the Poison.
Especial Correspondence


Provo, Feb. 24.-Yesterday afternoon
one of the inmates of the county Jail, AL
Boren, who is serving 4 thirty days
sentence. ate for dinner some meat which
had been setting in tin pan for some
time and which nearly caused his death.
He ate dinner at the usual hour and soon
after began 10 feel pain in his stomach.
but attributed his discomfort to the large
amount of food he had eaten. However.
he gradually got worse, until it became
exDediant to send for County Physician
George Robson, who pronounced ii a case
of meat poisoning from ptomaine.
Ptomaine is an alkalaid which is liable
to appear in all meats left simmerlng in
pans on the stove.
During the evening Boron gradually got
worse, but finally the doctor announced
that the poison had spent its force and
that he would recover # some new and
unforeseen evil did not appear. At $3.50
the sufferer was removed - his fathers
residence in the Second ward for the
night. Today his condition is a little bet
ter. but the effects of the poison cannot
be eliminated with rapidity. and It will
be some time before he is entirely well
again.

Spencer, Aug. 26.-At last the great
ball game between Spencer and North
Brookfeld is over and the Spencer team
has won.
Fully 500 people attended the game
with yearning in their hearts for a
Spencer victory, and they went away
satisfied.
The game started with North Brook
field at the bat Jack" Ceconi, Spen-
GERS idol, stood smiling, waiting for
the first man up. Ashworth was first
up and sent the first ball pitched be-
tween pitcher and short, to be caught
out at LIST. Ryan was put out in short
order and Duggan lined good one be-
tween short and second, but was caught
mapping.
In SpenceRs half Pecor flied out to
right garden; the next three men got
their bases, and with three on bases.
Lyford struck out.
In North Brookfield's half Donovan
hit an easy. one to Ceconi, which was
easily taken in. The next men up were
out and Spencer money went up a tri-
file.
In the next three innings North
Brookfield got on to Ceconis delivery
and touched him up for five hits with
a total of g. but after this Ceconi
pitched good ball. and held the North
Brookfield team down to FIVE hits
The particular stars of the day were
Ceconi, Noone, Mayo, Donnelly, Ryan
and Ashworth.
In the ninth Caseys hit brought in
OConnor and Mayo, winning the game
for Spencer.
The Spencer crowd went wild and the
players on the team own the whole
town as this is the first time for years
that Spencer has won two straight vic
tories from North Brookfleld. Owing
to some oversight, the North Brookfield
scorer caught the score as 1910, but
the score lilo was caught by two cor
respondents of different papers who sat
on the scorers bench. The two teams
