Concerning the shut out game at
Fort Dodge the Boone News says:
"Oskaloosa did mot give Fort Dodge
a look in, Coates was in the box for
the Quakers and he did not allow a
hit during the game. The Oskaloosa
players were in fine form and made
eleven scores during the game. A
snort time ago Bridges shut Fort
Dodge out without hit or run. Os-
kaloosa has a team which, if it stead
led down, could beat anything in the
league. If the present team had start
ed the season Oskaloosa and ottumwa
might have changed places"

TWO Home Runs Won Game.


Boone, Ia, Aug. 31.--Hobbs was in
the box for the Quakers yesterday
and he surely did himself proud. On
ly one Boone Greyhound hit him eff
fectually and that was Pennington,
who knocked two home runs, and a
third long fly that brought in Bassey.
These were the only scores made by
the home team, the other batters go
ing down before the Quaker in the
one, two, three order.
At bat there was nothing doing by
the Quakers until in the seventh in.
ming when Bradshaw hit and Patter-
son attempted to sacrifice. 1t was a
nice bunt to Powell and the double
was there waiting. In his eagerness
Powell threw to Pennington on the
run instead of to the bag, and Penny
had to go back after it. He stopped
the ball and recovered it in time to
fall over the bag with one hand on
the ball on the ground. Bradshaw
was called safe on the play, and Dali
rymple dumped both runners a sta.
ton. Slear hit and scored both, but
was doubled up with Henry in the
double that came too late. The
Quakers never had another chance to
score.
Meanwhile Pennington's home runs
the first and second times he went to
bat had given Boone enough to make
it a tie-up. In the seventh Bassey
lived on Patterson's tumble, and An
derson sacrificed. Pennington was
up and hit one that looked like an
other home run, but it was too high
and Dalrymple caught it up against
the fence. ~
In the eighth Powell got to second
on walk and sacrifice by Mcclure
but Depew and Painter could not
score him. ...
In the ninth Lally went to bat and
f'ff5Se "a furious one to center
Bassey~ essayed to dump, but Lally
was forced at second. Anderson hit
one back of second base that looked
like a fy-out, but no one got to It, and
as soon as Bassey saw what was go
ing to happen he made dive clear to
third base, where he landed ahead of
the ball, Anderson going to second.
Pennington drove out long fly to
Dalrymple and Bassey stole home like
the wind after the out A great cry
of joy went up, and large bouquet
was handed to Penny as he left the
| grounds. ..,.

| have worked as a machinist, as .
designer of machinery in the drafting
room, as master machinist, and in con-
Quoting business OF constructing indus
trial works on my own account. In each
OF these occupations l have found the
home or local building and loan as
sOciations of invaluable service, and it's
exacting but fair requirements have been
of inestimable advantage to me.
When | was a machinist the building
and loan association made for me an Op-
pOrtunity for regularly saving a portion
OF my pay. While working for wages,
and later, when receiving a salary, l &C
cumulated some little capital, and was
always getting an enforced training in
economy and prOmptness. The cOndi-

regular savings and prompt payments.

The Southern Trade.
Richmond Times-Dispatch.

Richmond Times- Dispatch
The crops in the South this year
are abundant and Southern mer-
chants are naturally looking for q
large fall trade. They will be pur-
chasing enormous supplies within a
short time and we observe that Bal
timore and Philadelphia are making
a strenuous effort to induce Southern
merchants to come to those markets
for their supplies Richmond should
take the hint. Richmond offers in
some respects, at least, greater adj
vantaees to Southern merchants
than they can find in the Northern
markets, and Richmond should not
be slow to let that fact be known.
While Philadelphia and Baltimore
are going after this trade Richmond
should exert herself in the same d.
rection. Many OF the Southern mer-
chants who go to the North will pass
directly through this city ell route
Let us do all that we can to induce
them to stop and take look at our
goods before going farther North. If
we could induce all Southern mer-
chants to do this, we believe that a
great many of them would not find
it expedient to go North at all, but
would purchase their entire stocks
here. This is an age of competition
and personal solicitation, and the
city which gets the trade is the city
which hustles for it.

Col. Francis A. Macon Receives q
Check for $4,000 to Pay Expenses
of the State National Guards En-.
campment at Morehead City.
Thomas J Pence in Raleigh Post.


Washington, Aug. 29.-Aftsr a day
| of constant maneuvering during
which time he encountered man re-
bluffs, Col. Francis A. Macon, Quarter
master General of the North Carolina
State Guard, secured, late this after
| noon from war department officials
the promise that he will be handed
check for $4,000 TOMORROW morn
ing, which will be disbursed,at once to
meet the expenses incurred in the en-
campment of the second and third
North Carolina regiments at More
head City.
Col. Macon will return to North
Carolina as soon as he secures the
| check for the encampment expenses,
and within a week he expects to have
every obligation discharged. All
officers and enlisted men who attend
ed the encampment will receive a
| check, the compensation for actual
service being the same as that which
prevails in the regular army.
1t has been enormously reported in
the State that the government ap-
preparation for the encampment was
already available The contrary pre-
vailed, and the outlook for an early
disbursement of the two North Caro-
lima regiments looked rather unfavOr-
able when Col. Macon started for
Washington. A telegram from the
auditor of the war department
stating that the accounts of the
State soldiery were in a badly mixed
condition FASTENED the quarter
master generals visit to the national
capitol. Upon his arrival Col. Ma
con lost no time in shortening the
space between his hotel and the war
department. He got immediately
down to business and in in a few min
utes had war department officials
busy getting together scattered re-
ports and records relating to the
State guard The auditor of the war
department was quick to realize that
the mixed condition OF affairs was
due to failure on the part OF the Off
Gals to keep the reports and records
from the State together. Later Col.
Macon was heartily congratulated
upon the excellence of his accounts
and was assured that a check for the
much desired appropriation would
be Forthcoming tomorrow morning.
The enlisted men will get about $3.50
each for their services. The bulk of
the appropriation will be disbursed
