MORRIS O, GRACEvILLE 4.

The game in the evening was a
peach for six innings, neither side
scoring, but in the seventh, Graceville
punched three hits which came with
couple of errors, and succeeded in
sending four men across the rubber,
enough;to cinch the game.
Morris had a weak line up, Warner
and Rogers being out and the other
men being shifted around here and
there. Under such circumstances, our
boys should be congratulated on the
game put up by them. Bicknell
made several snappy stops and throws
and should be especially commended.
1t was one, two, three until the sew
enth. In that inning NeA1on, Johnson
and Mcdonald singled, which together
with errors sent four men around the
horn. Morris failed to score and
Graceville won to 0.

Defense Of Hotel Companies involved
in Gambling Charge.
Paoi, Ind, July 6.-Judge Thomas
Buskirk has granted continuance of
the French Lick and West Baden hotel
cases till July 13 on the request Of the
hotel companies, which was acceded
to by Attorney General Miller ON the
promise that in the meantime no gam
bling would be allowed at either place.
The hotel companies were represented
by Alonzo Greene Smith, former at
torney general of Indiana, and other
lawyers from indianapolis, Paol and
Salem.
Fifty additional aifidavits were filed
by the state against the eleven at
tendants of the Casinos arrested when
the raids were made. The total num-
Der of afidayits against them is now
seventy-tWo.
John w. Kern of counsel for the
hotel companies during the argument
called attention to the damage that
had been done the two properties, val
ued at $2,O00,00O, on account of the
publication of the raids and insisted
that the hotel companies had no con-
troll of the Casinos whatever-that the
Casinos had been leased to other par
ties for a term of years.

GARDEN CRAFT

Corn, beans, melons, cucumbers, to-
matoes and many other plants require
warm soil. Seeds sown too early are
liable to decay in the ground. Those
that do grow may be stunted by un-
timely cold and will not develop into
good plants. 1t saves time to plant
these warmth loving kinds after the
soil is warm.
Keep the melons and the squashes
well cultivated and look out for bugs.
Tobacco dust is good remedy.
AS soon as the bean crop is over pull,
cut the vines and plant the space to
late cabbage, sweet corn or turnips.
It is time to set the celery.
Weeds are the greatest enemy of
onions. Keep the ground stirred, espe
cially after rain.
II you have any newly turned sod
on which you can put heavy dressing
of manure it will be just the right stu
alton to suit cabbage and caulifower
and will go far toward assuring fine
late crop.
Garden craft cannot all be learned
from paper. The best of it comes
through the handle of the hoe.
good vegetable garden is farm
drug store, containing in a pleasant
form many of the medicines which we
take III strong doses after nealecting
the laws Of health.

RoJEsTvENskY PLEADS GUILTY.

Surrender to Japs.

Cronstadt, July 6.-In self-sacri-
dcing effors to save the surviving
members of his staff and the other
officers who he believes surrendered
the gunboat Bedovi on account of af-
fection for him and their desire to
save his life Admiral Rojestvensky
pleaded guilty before courtmartial.
In short speech to the court the
admiral declared that he took all the
blame on his own shoulders and asked
that he alone be punished to the full
est extent of the law, virtually an ap-
peal for condemnation to death, which
is the penalty TOR hauling down the
ST. Andrews cross to a hostile vessel.
All the other defendants, including
Captain de Colongue, chief of Admiral
Rojestvensky's staff, and Captain
Baranoff, commandant of the Bedovi,
pleaded not guilty.

Clever Marketing.

My experience the past season con-
firms the belief that the way to make
money out of melon growing is to
build up reputation for shipping good
goods and have your own brand or
trademark. We made eighteen ship
ments to our commission man and had
goods in every shipment that sold at
the highest prices. This result was Sc
cured by holding up the quality. AS
the season progressed we culled closer
and closer. This naturally gave us a
smaller proportion of fancy and No.

getting the top price from FIRST to last
for our best goods-that bore our trade
mark A month after the melon seaSon
was over the salesman who had charge
of selling our fruit said it was d pleas
ure to handle. such goods. 1t hurt the
customers at first to pay more, than
they could get other melons for. but
after they once got started they almost
fought to get our fruit before it was
gone. w. B. Lloyd, Illinois.

Society at Minneapolis, was drowned
in the Mississippi near his home last
Friday. The announcement when re-
ceived here in Morris caused many

Arthur Tebbits, the 12-year- old son
of Rev'A.H. Tebbits, 617 Oak street
southeast, was drowned in the river
yesterday after swimming in the
| old bathing pool at the foot of Oak
street almost within stones throw
of his home.
At the time of the accident, the
Tebbits boy with number of other
boys of about his age, were bathing in
the river where while ago the park
board maintained public bath
Several of the boys, however. Arthur
among the number, waded out to a
point where water was almost over
their heads. 1t was while standing
there that he made mis-step and got
| beyond his depth. The first time he
came up, one of his companions
caught him by the hand, but was un-
able to retain his hold. A moment
later the current swept the lad sway.
7 Rev. Tebbits, who was sitting on
his front porch at the time, within ear
shot of the place where the accident
occurred, ..heard the alarm given by the
boys. He hurried to the scene, little
