COULD NOT USE THE PASS.

Bob" Triggs, of the St Paul club,
had an experience yesterday morning
that he did not relate to any Of the
st. Paul players. AS this was the last
trip he expected to make to Columbus
this season, Triggs decided to visit the
Ohio penitehtiary on West Spring
street. A "trusty' showed Triggs
through the big prison, but Triggs,
being unfamiliar with the workings of
the institution, did not suspect that his

out through the gates he tipped his

VESTS ARE DEFEATED
PUBLISHERS LOSE CHAMPION :
SHIP TO GREAT NORTHERNS
Dollars Great Work on the Slab Lands
Pennant of Commercial League for
the aiIroaders-Pitcher Strikes Out
Fifteen Men and Allows But Two
Passes.
EAGUE

With Joe Dollar throwing benders
roundhouse the champion West Pub
fishing company players had little
chance and the pennant Of the Com
mercial league for the season of 1902
now belongs to the Great Northerns.
Dollars work on the slab and the fast
work of the railroad boys on the paths
made the game one-sided. Hoffman
pitched a good game for the Vests,
but his support fell down at critical
moments.
The Great Northerns scored first in
the second inning. Berg styled and
Hoffman hit Cook. Grathwol singled.
With three on the paths Dollar hit to
center. Murnane dropped the drive
and Berg and Cook tailed.
In the sixth the Publishers took the
lead. Dollar issued his first pass to
Salmon. Kern singled. Salmon went to
third and Kerns stole second. Moshof-
sky famed and Salem hit to fill the
bags. Bartos hit to center for two
bases and Salmon, Kerns and Salem
scored. That ended the run getting for
the champions of 1901.
The Great Northern tied the score in
their part of the sixth and tied up the
victory in the seventh. Ford opened
this round with a safe drive. Blanch-
ard was walked. Hill hit to Salmon
and Blanchard was forced at second
Mitchell sent Ford in with single and
Hill scored on a wild pitch. Salmon
erred on Berg's attempt and Cook drew
a base. A passed ball and hit for a
base made the Roalroaders' total five
for the round.
Dollars slab work was the real fea-
ture of the game. During the after
noon he famed fifteen men and only
issued two passes. Mitchell played a
steady game at short. Score:

A Hatchinr Egg.

"An egg in the process Of Matching, .
says an expert. lis remarkably sensi-
tive to vibration. Half the failures
that amateurs encounter in Matching
out chicks by the incubator method
are due to lack Of precaution in pro-
viding against the effect Of vibration
on the eggs. The rumble of train or
the passage of wagon along the
street will spoil a whole incubator full
of eggs if the faintest Migratory wave
reaches the apparatus. Even such a
little thing as the banging of door
in some other part of the house will
destroy the chances Of Matching out a
brood where care has not been taken
to place the incubator beyond the
reach of such disturbances. A thunder.
storm always gives breeders a scare,
as thousands of eggs may be spoiled
by sudden heavy thunderclap. To
sneeze or cough in the vicinity of the
incubators will sometimes work dis
astrous result."-New York Tribune.

ton, except one section, where the plat
form is made feet wide at one end
and tapered to feet inches at the
other end. and the space for each COW
starts in this section, with 3 feet from
centers to feet inches. which is the
width of stalls for all the others.
In this section all the two-year-old
and three-year-old heifers are kept,
graded according to size. thus insuring
clean stables. ! might say right here
that these ideas are mostly from your
Wisconsin experiment station bulletins,
with changes that suggested them
selves to US as We progressed with the
work. The floors. managers, etc. are all
concrete, and the side wall from the
ceiling to floor is plastered with port
land cement on wire lathing, thus max
ing the whole interior from ceiling to
floor cement and iron. The stanchion
frames are all made Of iron pipe, as
are also the partitions between the
COWS, which consists, as the photo
graph shows, of single iron pipe bent
to enter the floor about sixteen inches
from the end of the platform, which
leaves plenty of room for the mixer
The stanchions are the Taylor patent
steel, made of angle iron and hung on
an eye bolt. which allows them to turn
in any direction, thus giving the COW
the fullest liberty. If COW ties are pre-
ferred, you will notice rings on the iron
upright, which can be used in place Of
the Sanctions, as the iron pipe frame
work is spaced right for either.
This stanchion arrangement may not
| be as good as some of the other iron
| stall fixtures, but it is clean, strong,
durable and easily disinfected, if nee
essary.

Deadly Prussic Acid.

Hydrocyanic acid, or, as it is most
commonly called, prussic acid, is one
of the most deadly poisons known to
animal life. 1t is a volatile principle
contained i'll numerous shrubs and
trees, chiefly the wild cherry, bitter aim
mond, sherry laurel, st. Ignatius bean
and the peach tree. 1t is obtained by
distillation from ferrocyanidc Of potas-
stun by the action of sulphuric acid
in the form of a light, colorless gas.
The preparation kept in the drugstore
is a dilute acid of strength of 2 per
cent of anhydrous acid in distilled wa
ter, colorless liquid. with the odor. of
bitter almonds. The dose is from two
to six drops. One-half grain of the
anhydrous acid is sufficient to produce
death. 1t is used in medicine in cor
recting diseases OF the stomach, also
in whooping cough and the last stages
of consumption.
1t is very volatile, and the fumes will
destroy vegetable life, causing the
stems of plants to wither and dry up.
Its effect on the lower animals is sim
liar to it's action on man, with the ex-
ception of the horse and the hyena,
upon whom it does not appear to pro-
duce any impression. In fatal doses
it causes death quickly by paralyzing
the hearts action. After death tie
rigor mortis sets in, and in a few mo-
ments the unfortunate subject is as
stiff as a board.
