Maybe they meant to play base ball,
but they forgot and imagined 1t, was
one OF the games OF childhood, more
| like duck on the rock" than anything
else.
| The appended score table shows nine
| teen errors for the "Insurgents." But
these were not all. The scorer, the
two of them, could not keep up to the
pace Of error marking and It's dollars
| to a bag Of Peanut" Nlck's hickory
nuts that they lost a half dozen more
or less. Not a man on the "Insurgents'
made less than one error. while two
| made three each and one had four to
| his discredit.
The Crescents made six errors. but
| there were not costly, the score shows
that. The insurgents" go eight hits
| off McAndrew, but they were Of the N.
G. variety. Not Crescent got as far rs
third base. There were opportunities
for advancing that for, but stupid base
running was the barrier
Roster and Fleming of the "Insur-
| gents and possibly Cox. are alone
deserving Of any particular mention.
Fleming Is Il ball player. every bit Of
| him, but no man could pitch with the
support he received from the team be-
hind him.
Roster is fresh from the Canadian
diamond, where he played a great
game with the St. Michael's college
team, Toronto. He likewise played a
great game yesterday. He has scarcely
an equal in Carbondale as an all-round
player and manager. Tappan. Of the
Crescents, would be wise to light on
Rosler as q member of the Crescents.
He would be an invaluable aid to him.
His catch of fly in deep right, after
a wild run, was remarkable.
| Among the Crescents. LOTUS covered
himself with glory behind the bat, and
acquitted himself in a manner that
forced the cranks to exclaim with en-
thusiasm: ",rhere is a ball player"
Emmett did some slugging and good
field work: also Cuff and Gallagher. A
one-handed catch by McDonough of a
| high throw ball was worthy achieve
| ment.
Up to the sixth inning the score was
6 to 0 in favor of the Crescents. In
the sixth "Our Pets" went on full time,
and hammered the ball when and how
they pleased. the wild errors and gen.
orally poor childish playing of the "In-
| surgents" piling up the runs in skies
and sevens stacks.
This game settles effectively the issue
over the two teams in Carbondale. 1t
demonstrated beyond a doubt that there
| is only one team in the town that can
| represent Carbondale; that team Is the
Crescents. Whatever doubt there was
over this issue was settled beyond all
question by yesterdays game. 1t was
survival of the fttest. The Crescents
came out away ahead, and there is now
| no question that they are the recognized
players.
1t will be we'll now for Manager Tap

good ones outside Of the Crescents to
| strengthen the weak among the Pets. "
There are some weak spots. but they
can readily be removed, and then in
| "Our Pets" Carbondale will have a
team that will be a winner.

HURRAH! CRESCENT!
Our "Pets" Put the "Insurgents" to
Rout in One Of the Worst Defeats
of the Season-23-O-Supremacy of
Crescents Now Firmly Established
and the Safety of Base Ball Sport
Assured.

The death knell of Carbondale's "In-
surgents" has been sounded.
1t was effectively delivered on Duffy's
field yesterday afternoon by the Cres-
cents, our noble pets" 1t was a
heartless, aye, merciless execution, the
death blow that was dealt the 'Insur-
gents but the safety of the sport of
base ball in Carbondale demanded it..
1t was an execution that was attended
with few mourners. There We're no
bouquets to be placed about the corpse !;
there was not even word of regret
While some thought it pity that they
had to witness such a slaughter, yet
there were no pangs of sorrow. Even
the mos. ardent of the supporters of
the insurgents" took the passing of
the insurrectionists resignedly, yes,
shook hands figuratively with the ex-
ecutioner, "Our Pets" our noble Pets"
and murmured, ITS for the better"
The scorers card showed the Cres-
cents received 23 runs; the "Insur-
gents" mae had none." The scorer
might have added a foot-note thus:
"Our Pets" could have had "A few more,
but % was "quantum suffict" as the
doctors prescription would say.
How did it come to be thus? Well
that's too long and too narrowing a
tale. Twas done and done Well. Brief
ly the, Crescents played the game as
they knew how to play. The "Insur-
gents" we'll, what's the use of adding
to the bitterness of the dose. Suffice to
say they didn't do it, From the start
they failed to make good, Somebody,
yes it was Ferdinando Lotus, said as
the crowd filed off the field of slaugh-
ter: Nov, what was that game any
how? Seems to me II was IA case of
boss and hoss between lawn tennis and
ping pong. Tha papers oughtn't to
make mistake and announce a ball
game. when II was something more like
marbles"
That's 1t! Twas hard telling what
the insurgents" We're trying to get at.

Two Wrongs.

A clergyman, lecturing on Capital
Punishment" took strong grounds
against the death penalty, arguing that
while 1t was wrong for a man to COM
NIT murder it was but another wrong
to kill the murderer and that two
wrongs never made a right.
AT least" said he. II never heard of
but one case where they did And he
proceeded to relate the following story.
presumably in support Of his argu-
ment:
"A man entered a country grocery,
where a number Of the villagers sat
around on barrels and boxes. and ask
ed if two wrongs ever made II right.
The response was Never. So |
thought till recently continued he.
"when met a stranger who asked me
to change a five dollar bill for him.
! did so and after his departure found
the bin was a counterfeit. So / kept
II till the other day and showed it on
4 fellow greener than H. The listeners
exclaimed that those were two wrongs
certainly. but they didn't make right.
"Well,' replied the man, they made
me all right"

English JewelerA' Tricks,

Many working jewelers. with whom
articles are left to repair are very
tricky individuals indeed, and women
are their chief victims. A great device
of the working jeweler. so far as gold
chains go. is to take off the hallmarked
fastening loops and to substitute for
these an exact imitation in metal, SO
that these should always be most care
fully examined. In ladies' lockets the
jeweler fraud usually takes out the
gold inside rim which fastens the
glass. and of. course he puts in sham
substitute. Where an article sent to
him contains a great number of toler-
ably small stones he will take one or
two of these OUT and put in imitation
articles specially made to deceive, says
Won}"n's Life. A working jeweler has
been known to make pounds week
by taking away the hallmarked cross
bars of gold alberts and replacing IL an
with brass. These remarks only. of
course, apply to the small number of
black sheep to be found in this as in
every trade.

ARTIFICIAL ICE.
Vranciple Upon which This C0mAO2.
Atty IL Manufa ctured.

Atty IL Mamma ctured.
The principle upon which the manu.
facture Of ice Is based is that gas
when compressed gathers heat enor.
mously. and II robbed Of this heat and
allowed to escape at future time 1t
seeks to regain its heat by withdraw
ing heat from its surroundings. Am
monia gas is generally preferred to
others because it can he liquefied with
comparatively little pressure. On re-
moving the water from common am
monia by distllation anhydrous am
monia is obtained This is compressed
by combined steam pump and com
pressor. and the resulting liquefaction
induces heat. which is economical by
circulating water about the vessel or
pipe containing the liquetied ammonia.
Thus the ammonia is cooled and the
heat largely transferred to the water,
which Is then pumped back to the
boiler that supplies the steam pump.
The liquid ammonia is then carried in
. pipe to expansion coils that afford
plenty Of room for it's evaporation,
when it begins TO return to the gaseous
form and to draw heat from it's sur
roundings. which gradually reduces
the temperature. Proper vessels OF
water are placed in contact with the
expansion coils, and in due time ice
IL formed.
