The art OF reporting baseball
games has been resurrected. For many
years the old-time reporters. gradu-

reporters are wont to congregate. and

With derision they have pointed to the
reporter who used such stale phrases

In regard to the summer boarder
there u yet another side. We only
hear about 1t from the standpoint Of
the lady who has been lured into the
country By the seductive advertisement
and dumped down on q spot that had
already been pre-empted BY 4 colony
OF mosquitoes and where the canned
goods Of commerce serve % . poor
substitute for fresh country Vegetables:
Z place where the ice trupt lays no trih-
ute, ANA where oleomargarins performs
thrice . day in place OF real butter
that has been shipped away to the
lucky city customer.
The other side IL the side Of the wom-
an who runs the ranch. For - week
she IL expected to furnish board like
that Of the Waldorf-Astoria, to have
scenery that 10 q combination Of the
mountains of Switzerland and the
lakes of Scotland. to have 4 cool breeze
trained to spring up at the touch OF q
button and to furnish band concert
eight evenings in the week.
Between these two extremes there IL
a medium-unhappy, 1t may be. bu,
IL the scientific Investigator will take
the trouble to look up each case he will
see that the summer boarder gets just
about what he pays for and NO more.

NEW YORK, May 12-While other
teams in the National league may
boast of their various accomplish
ments and eccentricities no aggregation
can sum up quite as odd collection Of
Christian names as the Reds do when
they write themselves as they were
called for the first time in their lives.
The manager Of the team bears no un-
common name, as Joseph is quite as
plain a cognonien as John, Tom or Bill.
Huggins is the first player to come
along with a peculiar front handle,
there being not another player with
the Christian name Of Miller in the
business.
There Is suspicion that Harry
Steinfeldt originally was called Helm

is the name that the minister pro-
nounced when Heiny Peitz visited the
baptismal font for the first time. In
the outfield they have Donlin with the
good. old Irish name Of Michael; Sey-
mour with parted-in -the-middle cog
nomen OF J. Bently, and Dolan with the
plain, well-sOunding title of Harry. In
the pitching department there are one

FOOD CURES.
How Physicians Can Cure Even
Bright's Disease by Use of
Right Food.

A Manitoba trip taught two Michi-
| gan women something valuable
through wise physician of Brandon
| One of them says:
81 had been so troubled for years
| with my stomach that l could not eat
meat and fruit on the same day and
suffered If l ate anything more than
| little stale bread and butter and was
so thin people thought / was going to
| die.
II had often seen Grape-Nuts adj
vertised but had never tried the food
until last August my sister went out
to Manitoba to visit another sister and
| learned that our sisters little boy who
is years of age had taken Bright's
Disease of the kidneys and their fam
lily physician gave them no hopes of
| his recovery.
His parents then took him to Bran
don, twenty miles distant, and the
physician there told them he would
undertake to cure him If no food but
Grape-Nuts were given him as no
other food would agree with his medi
cine or help to overcome the disease.
"The child has lived entirely on
| Grape-Nuts for one year and half
and is entirely well, a strong, sturdy
boy. The visiting sister was in poor
health when she went out to Manitoba
but the Grape Nuts she learned to eat
there sent her back home well and
strong and when she came home she
told me about them and 1 got some.
II learned that / could not only di-
gest the Grape-Nuts perfectly but If
took a spoonful of Grape-Nuts in my
mouth / could take a mouthful of po-
tatoes and meat along with it and
everything the Grape-Nuts mixed with
In that way / could digest but not
otherwise, and the result was l was
soon like a girl of 20 years Instead of
an old woman. My face got plumper

Hughes, Washington and Barrett ex-
planned the work and recounted what
had been accomplished in other cities
of the state. They informed those
present that Macon was expected to
make a showing of $4,000, and that they
had been informed that more than one
half of that amount had been secured.
Enthusiasm seized the assembly, and
before the last speaker had had his
say, a resolution had been written, in
which those present obligated them
selves to secure the full $500 Macon
was expected to contribute.
The meeting was full of life and en-.
thusiasm, and when the commissioners
left the city tonight for Augusta,
where a liberal response is anticipated;
1t went full of confidence in it's work in
that city.
Macon's contribution of $500 is now
practically ready for a draft drawn by
any one authorized to receive the
money.

1.-THE Russian officers and crew be-
haved splendidly. Three times flames
broke out on board the Variag while
she was under fire, and each time they
were extinguished as coolly as If the
men had been at drill. The wounded
men were carried below, and the men,
bers of the crew who lost their lives
were replaced by others.
1.-THE holes made in the Variag by the
proiectiles of the enemy were not stop
ped up. The Variag sustained terrible
damage. Both starboard bulwarks were
destroyed, her guns were crippled and
her hull was riddled with shot. Thirty
three men on board of her were killed
including Midshipman Count Nirod'
The captain of the Variag was bruised
