The Fats WIh

About 900 Of the base ball root
ers, who attendel Ike sar7e be-
tween the Fats and the Leans were
agreeabIy surprised to see such a
good exhibition. The game was
nothing ike that usually put up
By such an aggregation Of ball

ing sensational i'll the exhibition
furnished, each side showed plain
ly that they were in the game to
win, the Fats finally coming Out
victorious by she score Of I9 TO II.
NOTES OF THE CANE.
John Crib, at sd, was the hot
mustard, " accepting II chances
and making S assists without ali
error.
Umpire Hazlett gave satisfaction
to both sides.
Anders and Thurmond, the two
professionals on the team, showed
up well. though neither exerted
himself for fear of getting sore and
stiff.
Angel, as catcher for the leans,
did well.
F. ]. Miller surprised the spec
tators by his ability to play any
position, filling acceptably the po-
sition Of center field, pitcher and
catcher.
Arch Bohart made a neat catch
Of Perry's fly in the fifth, retiring
the side.
Jeffries showed marked ability
as base runner, performing sue
cessfully the unusual feat of steal
ing home from third.
Jim Hill and Jim Darnell were
familiar figures at 2nd and Ist, re-
spectively, although they were
carrying about 40 pounds of ST.
perhuous fat, which kept them
from getting around as lively as
they did in the old days.
c. f. Yeaton played a good
game.
P. w. Wood, proprietor Of the
bottling works, did the handsome
thing in treating the players TO
soda pop.

THE
ADVANTAGES OF
ELECTRIC LIGHTS

are 50 apparent that we are almost
ashamed TO talk about them. They
stick right ont like the nose of your
face, but, as Marcus Aurclius
might have said, if he had thought
Of il, If a maa blow not his own
horn, the saiue it shall not be
bowed And our Office boy says
he'll be blowed If he can see why
we should hide our light aader a
half bushel.
Ro to save argument we are will
ing to admit that there is no light
that even approaches the electric
light in quantity Of light radiated
iii around the room.
The quality OF the light you can
see for yourself. Electric lights
give strong, clear, vivid write
light. That is what is demanded
today, pure, white light and plenty
of il.
II our points are not clear to you
it is undoubtedly due to the fact
that yonr light is poor. If YOU
will put in a full equipment of elec-
trio lighes the whole subject will be
made beautifully luminous and we
will have. peace in the family.
