Sundays Game With BaIlinger.

The Ballinger team was here for
a series of games this week, the
first of which was played Sunday
afternoon. Ballew did the pitch
ing for the locals and Griffin oc-
cupied a similar position with the
Ballingerites. The result was a
defeat for the visitors by score
of 8 to 4. Nick Snow umplred.
The features of the game were
home runs by Spencer in the
third and Bushyhead in the
seventh. Spencer was in good
hitting order as were also the re-
mainder of the team. His long
fly over the left field fence scored
his predecessor in the batting
order and enabled Spencer to
touch all of the bags easily.
Bushy's hit was a line drive to
right and center against the fence
and subsequently lost to the view
of the fielders. Bushy, fleet of
foot as he is, had no trouble in
making a home run of it. The
game was well attended and high
ly enjoyed.

The Games at BaIlinger.

Four games were PLAYED at
Ballinger last week by the San
Angelo team. Two were won and
two were lost. Dupree won his
first game against Gaskell. Hen
son pitched Thursdays game and
won. The hopes of San Angelo
people ran high. Ballew got
seriously hurt during Thursdays
game and was unable to pitch
Friday which game was scheduled
for him to win. Dupree pitched
and being overworked lost his
game and then only by one of the
prettiest close games played in
West Texas this season. Twelve
innings were played before the
game was decided and then the
score was only 2 to l. Wolfe
pitched for Ballinger.

sonseeoaoo eeeeeeese'
A HURRAH GAME
"tias Beens" and "May Bes" Play
an Enjoyable dame-Enloyable
to the Spectators.

The game Of ball Thursday he.
tween the "llas Beens" and the
"May Bes" was fairly success
full as an attraction. The game
of course while enjoyable was not
appreciated by the fans like real
hard worked game would be, but
the game was funny.
Bernay Alexander, has remain
ing with him but shadow OF his
former greatness. Il. A. Hall is

ton. Walter Robertson is full
of business, likes base bail but
he's n has been. Sam Hodges
and McBurnett are getting ready
TO get married and can't afford
to spend any of their time in the
foolishness of base ball. Doc
Bats is out of the question.
Many people doubt whether he
ever saw base ball before. Some
say that his playing of Thursday
is positive proof,that he never.
And this is the has-been bunch
except that Dwight Hunters
name has been omitted by re-
quest and Gene Corneiluson was
imported. Dwight says he
doesn't want to he considered u
"has BEEN. 1t is reported that
he has excellent reasons. 1t
might destroy some of his oppor-
tunities. Gene is a good catcher
but he isn't has been.
OF the May-bes,-the high
school eam,-much might be
said. They are a nice lot of boys.
Arthur Ragsdale twirls for them,
so does Luke Robinson. Both
have the making of good pitchers
in them. "Snotty" Robinson
catches; Morgan Nussbaumer is
a good little short stop; Webb.
Cole and Balfanz are the base
men and the field is protected by
jeff Rawls, Melvin Currier aud
Luke Robinson. This team can
be made a good team of for next
season if some one will take hold
and drill them. They could be
drilled up to the point where they
could take first money in any
amateur contest in West Texas.
The game was success from a
financial point of view. The new
uniform fund is substantially
augmented by this means. A
good crowd was present and no.
body dead-headed, The score was
II to s in favor of the Has-beens.

A PRACTICAL COSTUME.
How Women Can Have One with
Seven Pockets.

Seven Pockets.
Without pockets woman Is Mt great
disadvantage in her competition with
man In business or In travel. A man
has fourteen and sometimes more
pockets in his business suits, while wo-
man has not even one, but Is obliged
to carry an amazing array of small be-
longlngs or descend to many subter-
fuges. Fashion has forced women to
adopt skirts where pockets would
seem to be impossible, but IL any wo-
man will follow the simple plan here
shown she can be independent Of all
those little impedmenta, and no one
will be any the wiser. and she will
have the free use of her hands for her
protection in the many dangers of life
Skirts now are fashlonably made with
multiplicity OF plaits, generally
stitched along the outer edges. Be-
meath these plalts long pockets can be
put and the opening arranged to close
invlsibly with small hooks and eyes.
The front breadth is to be made like
panel, stitched along the edges to the
bottom. The left side forms the plack-
ct, closing with hooks and eyes or with
buttons in tailor style. The right side
has u deep pocket entirely Invisible II
the opening Is closed with buttons or
hooks.
Three more pockets can be set under
the plalts on the right side and two on
the left back of the front breadth along
the hips. The waist may be In blouse
style or n Jacket. An inside pocket Is
made of channels In three compart-
ments, each fastening with strong
button to hold valuables. This is sew
ed fast to the inside at the bust line,
A natty small pocket Is made like the
watch pocket in vest to hold watch
or small change and Is deep enough on
the inside to be of practical use.
The plalts of the skirt are stitched
down at least eighteen inches and then
left to flare. This gives abundant
space for the deep pockets to contain
quite an astonishing number of things,
all unsupported Of any one. The con-
venience of these many pockets ought
to make them appreciated by business
women and tourists to whom satchel
would be burden. And valuables
! would be much safer.
