Rock Island batted out the game
with Springfield yesterday at the
Twelfth street park in the tenth in
ming, making three clean hits in sue
cesslon off Meredith. Only one man
was down when the winning run was
scored. The bases were filled and
Lister was up when Thornton, leading
away from first, drew a throw. Hess
Ter stretched for home when Red
Wright started to chase Thornton to
wards second. When Red thought he
had Hessler led up sufficient distance
to beat him to the plate he winged
the pill, and it was not his fault that
the play was not successful Tacks
dropped the ball when he mOtioned to
tag Hessler on the back. Umpire Mi
Ian was standing beside the plate
when seeing that the man he had first
thought out was safe he declared the
run in on a muff and while the
Senator's gathered about him pro-
testing vehemently II was no
ticed that Latimer did not make much
of a hOller. Tacks knew the umpire
was correct in his decision He knew
that he had not got his man. So that
was all there was to it.
Players Slide in the Mud.
The diamond was in miserable con
ditiOn owing to the rain of Tuesday.
and considering the handicap of the
players both teams furnished a re-
markedly clean exhibition. Most any
kind of a hit to the infieId was safe
unless it came straight at the fielder
and the basemen on both sides had
slides in the mud 1t was particularly
ticklish between first and second
where there was a patch of mire three
inches in depth. No attempt al
stealing was made by either team
Lundin and Meredith were the oppOs
ing pitchers. The Rock Island artisl
had the better of the argument from
the beginning to- the finish, as the hi
column will attest Rock Island GO

livery at the outset securing a pair o.

Locals Make Five Hits in Third.

Rock Island resumed the attack on
Meredith with a vengeance in the
third inning. Listen: Lister hit
Carlisle laid one down that
brought Pete into station second. Mil
Ter twO-based in left. Lister scored.
Nandine connected for base. Miller
came home Hessler hit. Lundin drove
to third base. Vandine was tagged
at the plate. Thornton famed. Five
hits and two runs in that inning.
Springfield evened up again in the
fourth. Neal drove to Sweeney and
the shOrtstop did the toboggan act
once more. hitting a slippery spot that
gave him a ride of several feet on the
south side of his trousers. Caffryn
grounded hot to Vandine. but Lister
dropped the ball. Latimer laid down
a pretty sacrifice to Lundin. Hankey
had the hit, driving into right far
enough to send Neal and Caffryn into

Error Gives n Lead of One.

Rock Island took a lead in the sixth.
Sweeney, first up, basting for a
couple of bases in center. Lister
grounded to Hankey. who recovered
clean, but made bad throw out of il
to first that allowed Sweeney TO pad
die 10 the plate. Neal. that red-vis-
aged youth that Donnclly has this sea
son developed into one of the star in
fielderS of the league. tried to break up
the game in the ninth by landing on
Lundin for a double in right field.
Either Thornton or HUpp could have
caught the fly. but there seemed to
have been misunderstanding be-
tween them as to which one should
take it. Both started for the ball and
when within hailing distance of If
they stopped. Caffryn advanced Neal
to third with a sacrifice. and when
Latimer drove a long fly TO Carlisle
Neal scored.
In Rock Islands half of the ninth
only three men faced Meredith. In
the 10th the Springfield pitcher screw
ed up courage and took poke at one
of Lundin's wobblers. Then LoOie
Lippert was moved and Donnelly
could hit no farther than the pitcher,

This design is suitable for maxim"

The material of the blouse is cut all
in one piece. and can be either knife

and front yoke foundation Pleated
chiffon Or embroidered silk lisse could
pe stretched on to the upper part OF
the foundation, but it must be arrang,

IN order to obtain the necessary slope
the sleeves have to be gathered on
below the tops of the tight-fitting lin

make the shoulders deeper. The skirt
is shaped out all in one, and a deep

ANNUAL OUTING

Today.

The NJ. E. Sunday-school spent
the day at Paden City park. The
inclement weather interfered to a
degree with the outing, but not
outstanding this fact the occas-
ion was much enjoyed by the
scholars, teachers, parents and all
others who participated. The
merry cutters were conveyed to
and from the grounds in electric
cars, and the ride over the trolley
line was greatly enjoyed by the
children. Abundance Of good
things to eat were served on the
grounds TO the members of the
school. There were also variety
of amusements in which the chill
dren whiled away the time IN a
most delightful and enjoyable
manner.

holders of $15,000-more than
500 profit in less than one year
Can any one tell us of a single in
stance in which the "furin" inves'
tors have made one-tenth as much
money as the gas people have
We would like to hear from them
if they have. Now, we wish to inn
press the fact on our people that
there are plenty of investments
right at home to make money
good, clean, honest cash-and in,
vestments that will not only make
money but assist many others to
live and prosper. When you are
asked to invest at home, try it.
There will be other companies
formed, more chances given to in
vest, so make up your mind now
to stop going out Of town to in
vest. Quit buying stocks away
from home, buy lots here-build
rent or sell them, and build up
the city; give employment to 9TH
ers and keep our boom on the
boom. Every man who invested
a thousand dollars in the gas
company less than one year ago
will receive on his investment his
one thousand dollars and another
clear profit of at least five hun
dred dollars. We consider this at
least a fair percentage aside from
the benefits others have received
along with the stockholders. There
is no better city on earth for in
vestments than in Sistersville. We
could enumerate hundreds Of in
stances where investors have re-
ceived almost marvellous profits in
home ventures. Join in line; get
to work at once; invest your cash
here; give employment to labor
be happy, contented, and push
things along with a vengeance.
AS soon as our home people will
begin to work heartily, and all to-
gether here, just that soon will we
prosper as we have never done be-
fore. Try a home Investment!

There is a GREAT difference il

There is a great difference in
people, especially in Sistersville
and Tyler county, or at least we
know more about the people here
than elsewhere. We are not 60
ing to enumerate all the differ
ences we know, but just few OF
them. Last summer fSw gentle
men who reside here organized a
little company known on the map
as the Paden Gas company. The
company took some leases, drilled
in two good gas wells, laid a six
inch gas line to Paden City. The
company gave the f'""Gers several
dollars in the way of rentals for
their farms. IL bought rig tim
bers from the farmers and that
gave them some cash. Then there
was hauling to be done, which the
transfers did in hauling the rig
timbers, casing, hauling out and
stringing the pipe for the line, and
that helped a lot more teamsters.
Then the ditch had to be dug to
lay the pipe in, then it had to be
covered, and so on, and that gave
common laborers a chance to
make several honest dollars.
These men who hauled, who re-
ceived rentals, who worked, who
drilled, all spent the money, and
that made the merchants happy,
and they could pay their bills, and
so this was all very good. While
this was going on there is another
class of people here who stand
around clicking" They don't
want any gas stock in theirs; they
have no use for anything that IS a
home industry or home business
venture. They buy steel stocks,
lots in other cities and towns,
some won't sell piece OF ground
here large enough to bury a man
on; they claim epople who do IN
vest in home enterprises are mo-
nopolists and want to run the
city. Our readers all know them
and they are different. So the
people who invested about $25,-
600 in the Paden Gas company,
and by so doing made many peo-
pie happy by giving them employ
ment, have sold The plant to par
ties interested in Faden City. BY
selling the plant they will make
money and start Paden City on a
boom again, and that will be OF
such great advantage to our home
pso9Ie that no mere man can
I, i the good it will do in the com
inc ages. Aside from all this, it
has been paying venture. The
plant cost say, in round numbers,
So. 600 1t has been sold for $40,-
