Jacksonville last Saturday on Williams
field at Jacksonville, shutting them out
to 0. This was the fastest game played
by the home team this season, being play
ed in l hour and 20 minutes. This was

be presented with the cup and 1t will be
their duty to defend it the coming year
also. Maloney pitched fine ball for Bond
Vile, striking out 10 men. c. Landman
did well for Jacksonville, tanning eight
Of his opponents. Both pitchers were
given excellent support. A two-base hit
by H. Wheeler of Bondville and a fine
catch by L. Landman of Jacksonville
were the features. S. Burbank sent a
fine drive to centre, apparently good for
two bases, but Landman rose in the air,
stretched out his arms and pulled In the
pellet, thus making a very sensational
catch. Following is the batting order
and score by innings:

Letter to Henry r. Brown,
erattleboro, VI.

Dear Sir: Why, do you think, can De-
voc sell pure paint as low as others
sell adulterated paint?
There are 80 or 40 or so different
makers OF paint, that rank, in way, as
first class" they have their regions
ones region is large, another's is small I;
everyone is "first-class" in it's region.
OF these 80 or 40 or so, one is best, an
other next, and so on down; but the
prices are all the same or about the same
you can buy one for less than another
though; a personal matter sometimes.
But how, do you think, can Devoe sell
the best for no more than the rest? The
answer is; IT costs less to sell it; more to
make, less TO sell Reputation helps sell
1t. Its $50 years help to sell it.
Go by the name. Yours truly,
F. w. DEVOE & co.
