ocaIa at Tampa.

Baseball teams representing Tampa
and Ocala, two old rivals in the
national sport will clash this after.
noon at 3 O'clock at the Tampa Bay
grounds, and one of the most exciting
and closest games ever played here is
expected. The Ocala team has arrived
and Is fine shape and the Tampa team
has been practicing for the fray for
several days.
The teams will line up about as fol-
lows:
Tampa-Capo, catcher and first
base; Fine, pitcher Drysdale, short
stop; AlfOnzO, catcher and first base !;
Allen, second base; Drexel, third base {;
Farhmherz, Glenn, Rive or Morales,
fielders.
Ocala-M Liddell, catcher J. HOr-
ner, pitcher; c. L. Anderson, first
base; F. VOgt, second base; $. Jewett,
third base; c Baker, shOrtstOp; P.
Morris, left field; \. Peyser, center
field; +. Harris, right field.
Owing to the fact that Manager
Brown has given the Tampa Bay
grounds over TO sports of this charac-
ter, making it possible for ladies and
business men to attend the games,
which was well nigh impossible when
they occurred at DeSOtO Park, the at
tendance is expected to be much
greater than her etOfore, but there will
be ample accommodation for all.-Tsm-

Proper Amusements.

DR.. w. c. Lindsay, OF the Presby.
terrain church of this city, preached a
remarkable sermon from his pulpit
Sunday night on the above subject.
The distinguished divine takes
issue with many Of the sermons that
have recently been preached here and
does not denOunce social functions and
popular amusements as wholly sinful
and says that it is the abuse of them
that make them sinful. That there is
no difference from moral stand
point in a game of whist and game
of finch, and that games of cards,
novel reading, theatre going, dancing.
etc., if engaged in for the purpose of
recreation are not harmful and he
scouts the idea that drunkards and
gamblers are made in the homes.
The sermon was an interesting one
and was on line not usually heard
from the pulpits in Ocsla.

The APPLE CROP GOOD
Northern Part of the State Has
an Excellent Yield of
EARLY Apples
MANY SHIPPED TO THE CITIES
[. w. Ferris, of Hampton, Shipped
Three Car Loads Of Duchess to the
City Markets = Market Price Has
Been About 40 cents-Later Grown
Kept for Home Consumption.
Special to Times-Republican.

Hampton, Aug. 19.-The early apple
crop is very heavy in the northern part
OF the state and the shipping of Ouch
ess apples in car load lots is not an UNI
usual sight at this time of the year.
Last week S. w. Ferris, a nurseryman
of Hampton, shipped three carloads,
most all of which he had raised himself.
The quality and size of the Duchess,
which is the earliest and most produce
tive apple grown here, is very good this
year. The orchards are full of apples
and in many places it is necessary to
prop up the limbs to prevent their
breaking under the heavy load of rip
ening fruit. The market price for the
early apples is 40 cents per bushel and
most all the early ones are shipped as
they will only keep for about six weeks.
They are made up in car load lots and
shipped directly to the cities for retail
trade. All the later apples grown here
are kept for private use as they are
better quality of keepers.

has been said that the Eastern Iowa
