Did Little Damage and Were Really
Good Thing For Many People.
There were quite number of small
fires yesterday which We're actually of
a good deal Of benefit to many people
in the first place they helped the trade
of B. A. Morgan, our popular drug
gist. as he sold the Wadsworth Bros
"Chicos" which were burned. Then
they benefited the smokers, for it GER
tainly is benefit to any man to find a
cigar for cents that will give him
more satisfaction than 10 cent cigars
have before.
We might say truthfully that these
cigars were a good thing for many
others, as nothing makes a man more
good natured than a satisfactory
smoke, such as he always gets when he
lights a Chico"
3. A. Morgan has secured the local
agency for Wadsworth Bros "Chicos"
and wants all smokers to try them and
see that at last it is possible to get a
real Havana cigar. we'll made. good
size, free smoker, delicious flavor, for
5 cents. Better try a "Chico" on his
recommendation.

| SDeclal I1meS- RSf)uDllCdD.
Burlington June 23-Abiity to hit.
| when hits meant runs, and head work
when brains counted scores. sums up
in a sentence the reason of Burling-
toms shut out yesterday and the mani
fest possibility of MarshalltoNn be-
coming a factor in the pennant race.
The result of 4 to is really a side
issue when compared to the fact that
the boys from the pottery town not
only know how to play ball but really
play the game without thinking of the
sole consideration of salary. That
PA" Warner has a. well trained bunch
of youngsters is very evident and that
he understands the way to keep them
in trim is easily apparent. This is the
reason the visitors beat and shut out
the locals yesterday.
Yesterdays contest was fast and full
of snappy fielding, and light hitting
Johnson did most effective work in the
box for the Grays and at no stage of
the contest was his control of the sit
uation allowed to get beyond his grasp.
Williams work on the third sack was
brilliant and spectacular.
One of the cleverest plays ever seen
on the local diamond was Williams
stealing of the home plate, and it took
the crowd fully minute to appreciate
was at bat and the instant Seitz de-
livered the ball the speedy third base
man started down the line for home.
Kruger sacrificed and Williams
crossed the rubber, though he would
have scored without the batter being
compelled to hit.
1t looked for while yesterday as II
Burlington might make it two out of
three against Marshalltown, the Path
finders never played better ball than
they did during the first five innings.
But as usual, the hoodoo, which, by
constant association has become a
pet of the boys in blue, got in a few
swats of it's own in the sixth and sent
Seitz up into the air. Seitz has been
pitching the best game of the week,
but in some way the visitors hypno-
tised him in this fatal inning and per-
suaded him to deliver nothing but easy
ones where they could swat them with
the least possible trouble. Three of
the Grays got to first this way and a
base on balls, and some headless play
ing, did the rest. Bruggeman scored
on Johnson's tWo-sacker, and the big
pitcher was brought in Disch's long
single out into Reynolds garden. Disch
worked around the bases, and was on
third, when Warner raped out his
usual timely hit and brought him in.
Warner was thrown out at second and
retired the side.
The three runs looked fearfully big
to the fans, who had been counting
on another victory for the locals, but
when Williams took advantage Of
Krick's error and Grogan's, which
closely followed it, and covered three
sacks apparently just to steal homo
right home under the eyes of Seitz and
Shocks, who stood like wooden Indians
and watched him do it, then the crowd
gave up hope and settled into it's usual
critical attitude and began to eat pea
nuts.
A few times the Pathfinders seemed
to be on the verge of running in q
score and the peanuts were for the
moment laid aside, but it was no use.
The hoodoo had fastened itself too
strenuously onto the team to allow
them to do anything but fan out. The

Norton Lets Official Go For Not At
tending to Duties.

Umpire Jack Flynn has been sus-
pended by President Norton of the
Iowa State League for nom attendance
to duty in the present Ottumwa SER

serious, is for being unfit to perform
his work properly at all times. 1t is
expected that Flynn's suspension will
be permanent and the league will lose
one of it's most popular and efficient
officials. E. e. Fleming, the former
outfielder on the Burlington team, was
appointed to fill the position made va
cant by Flynn.

Performance of Hagenbeek Show.
A large audience, for the evening,
witnessed the second, and closing per-
Torrance of the Hagenbeck show last
night The same excellent features
that pleased and amused the big af-
ternoon crowd, were given, altho few
of the minor acts were omitted. The
animal acts, which are the features
of the show, were all that the after
noon crowd claimed for them, and
in addition the trained pigs and mon
keys came in for large share of the
applause which they deserved.
The show left early this morning
for Waterloo, where it shows today.
From there it goes to Fort Dodge. The
same order and quiet marked the load
ing of the big wagons and equipment,
which was done on the side tracks at
South Second and Third avenues.

Blew Open Door of Safe But Couldn't Get at
 Vault.

Colchester, Conn. Nov 21-Burglars made an attack on the steel safe in the Colchester Savings bank early to- day but after blowing off the outer door they were unable to penetrate the compartments of the safe and were scared off with no booty. Three times an explosive was set off to effect an entrance into the safe. The bank is on the main street of the village i'll the brick building owned by J. N. Adams who has a general store in the other side The burglars took the pre- caution of tying the doors of the Cole man house which Is the nearest build- ing, so that the inmates could not get out after being awakened by the noise of the first explosion at 1:3o. The clock in the bank stopped at 2:O5. The men stole the horse of Rural Deiiv- cry Carrier David B. Murray. They got tools at the railroad station and borrowed blankets and a feather bed from a nearby barn, wetting down these articles at cistern. It is not known In which direction the men went There was very little money i'll the bank as the institution Is being closed up by court order through liq- uidation and it's affairs will be settled shortly.

 The meeting as planned by the mayor will be unique in the histosr Of American politics.
