ancient enemies, the Kents, In a game
that wns red hot from start to finish
Besides the ordinary inducement
which there has been for the East
Akrons to beat Kent, this particular
game was played for an additional
inducement of 500, and there was
grim determination on the face of ev-
cry player on both teams. and much
expectancy on the part OF the big au-
dience which attended and tore the
mir into fragments with their express
sions of approval or disapproval at
different points in the contest.
East End had been strengthened by
the addition of Volk and Bedur, the
stars of the Piqua team this season,
and the Kents had Editor John Pax
ton, of the Kent Courier, and Jack
Bracken with them to act the role Of
"Moral support and reserve force
respectively.
The game was full of the uneXpect-
ed. All OF the scores made by Kent
were the direct results of home runs,
one OF which was made with man
nlrendy on the bases and the other
/ OF which scored only the SALESMAN.

HAS A CLOSE CALL.

Boston, April 7.-Ethel Barrymore,
who is playing in Captain links
of the Horse Marines" at the
Boston Museum, had a close call
Saturday afternoon She had
bottle of spirits OF ammonia in her
dressing room for medicine. By
mistake another medicine was put
iii its place, and just before the
matinee she took a swallow from
the wrong bottle. Fortunately, the
difference in taste was noticed inns
mediately. There was much cons
motion for few minutes, but the
quantity taken was SO small that
she felt no serious effects and in>
sisted upon going on with the play.
The curtain had been held down
sometime because of the mishap.
