Washington welcomes the prospect, just

support it deserves and prove true the
familiar assertion that the capital is natu-
rally one Of the best base ball towns in
the country. This city has steadfastly pat

appreciation. Even during the long years
of bad base ball management, marked by
the policy of selling players. when the
team representing Washington stood at the
end of the list, the support given was hearty
and profitable. What would happen with
a winning team. such as Brooklyn is sure
to be this year. is easy to estimate. Wash

game until this year, and the local base
ball devotees feel lost in summer without

When.

When the honeysuckle whispers with q
voice of perfume sweet,
And the leaves that gently nestled. sink to
silence in the heat;
When the lightning bug is winging
And the bullfrog starts his singing
In the brooklet where the willow and the
shifting shadows meet:
When everything Is murmuring a slow
ecstatic tune,
You don't need any calendar to tell you
that it's June.
When the long and lazy grasses in the
daisied meadow set
Are making solemn curt'sies In a languid
minuet;
When Sir Bumblebee. the rover,
Plays at kissing in the clover.
While we note the swift departure OF the
prudish violet;
When there's music in the breezes and
there's magic in the moon,
You don't need any calendar to tell you
that it's June.

up in the Farmer OF Oct. 4th. We re-
produce his Introductory, as follows;
Does one wish to find land of snn-
shine, combined with big red apples, the
finest and choicest that can be found, he
need go no further than the great Hood
River valley. When stranger to its re-
sources hears it mentioned and sees
some of the fruit grown there, he thinks
1t must be good country, but let him
visit its every nook and. corner and he
sees the tens of thousands of trees load
ed to breaking with great big red apples.
the like of which he has seen nowhere
else; here is revelation to him. OF
course the country is not perfect in all
respects, having its advantages and dis
advantages; like every other good coun.
try, It is a duty to note both with an inn

CHARGED WITH A
Joseph Lawson, Employed by Trans.
fer Company, Arrested.

Joseph Lawson, a checkman at the
Union Station for the Frank Bird Transfer
Company, was arrested last night on a
warrant charging bigamy. The warrant
was sworn out by Grace n. Truman, who
lives with her sister at 1850 Harding street,
West Indianapolis Lawson said his arrest
was much Of a surprise, for he was talking
TO her yesterday and she left him in ap-
parently good humor. He thinks the war
rant was the result of pursuasion ION the
part of his sister-in-law.
According to his story. he was married
Feb. 3, 1896. to Grace f. FIory, whose par
ents live at 9ss West Washington street.
After living with her two years they sepa-
rated, and In 1897 or 1898 she filed suit for
divorce. He did not answer the summons.
and heard nothing more of 1t until he met
her one day on the street. She told him
the divorce had been granted. He did not
take trouble TO verify the statement. and
on Feb. "a last he married Grace NJ. Tur-
man.. with whom he lived until April 2.
AT that time she first learned that he had
been married. and a neighbor told her ne
had never been divorced.
She left him. going TO the home OF her
sister. Lawson left the city after July 6.
at which time he claims a divorce from his
first wife, for which he applied, was grant
ed. He returned several weeks ago. Mon
day last his wife and her sister appeared
at his place OF employment and asked for
money. He declined 10 give her any on
account OF her sisters actions. Both left
yesterday. and the matter was talked over.
Then came the arrest.
Lawson anticipates little trouble, claim
ing 10 know the divorce for which he APP
piled was granted. and the warrant ON
which he was arrested charges the offense
as on or about Oct. IL.

terday Building Inspector Bedell announced
that he could stand the signs of Republican

noon he went out on q personal visit TO the
places where such emblems were hanging
and ordered them to be removed.
Mr.. Bedell said it was strictly against
the law to hang sue flags and banners
across the street, and hereafter he would
insist on the law being obeyed. He ordered
the large Mckinley and Roosevelt banner
across Meridian street In front of the Ma
rion Club to be removed, and also the flags
on East Washington street to be taken
down. One of them hangs In front OF the
Gold Democratic headquarters. and the
other had Mckinley and Roosevelt" sewed

for them to be kept on the streets. Mr..
Bedell also claimed that the Democratic
committee recently asked permission to
hang a banner across one of the streets and
he refused to grant the permission. where
upon the Republican emblems were pointed
out to him and he decided TO order all Of
them removed. Mr.. Bedell claimed that
the administration was not back of the
move. but he shouldered the entire author
ity and would insist on all of the flags
hanging across streets being taken down at

The Manual Training High School team
did not play the Butler team yesterday
afternoon. Coach Kelly. OF the latter team.
had both the varsity and second eievens
practicing on the Butler campus for two
hours. Interest In the game at Butler
seemed to be on the wans. but yesterday
morning Coach Kelly spoke TO the young
men OF the college and implored them to
take more interest in the game. His words
had good effect. for I'm the afternoon all
or the available men We're on the field.
The first eleven showed faster play In
practice than IL has yet put up. and Coach
Kelly directed the men with a stern COM
mand. forcing them TO play faster ball.
Van Wrinkle Is a new man at right tackle,
having succeeded Compton, who was placed
at right guard In place of Johnson. who
IL now a member OF the second eleven.
Hawley at left guard. also a new player,
showed up well yeEte day. as did HOIlings-
worth. a new candidate for left end.
Pritchard was not able TO practice at full
back and Gilium played the position on the
varsity team. He gives promise of making
q good ground gamer. Coach Kelly is bet
ter satisfied with the team than he has ever
been. and he hopes 10 make a good show
ing against Earlham at Richmond on Sat

at present the shortage Is confined to no
one part of the country, and the situation
has reached such a stage that IT Is with
great difficulty that a connecting line can
be induced to let a car go beyond the first
gateway where it is possible to transfer
the freight. This year Southern and North
ern lines are using every car they can
command. Reports from Southern roads
are much the same as N Central Traffic

in business is in all classes and is re-
sponsible for the shortage at this season.
