Burlington. Sept 21.--The conclud-
ing game of the Burlington Marshall
town series, and the farewell appear
ance of the latter aggregation on the
home grounds, was 81 great contest.
Plenty of hitting and plenty Of sprint
ing and everybody brimful of ginger.
A delegation of Marshalltown citizens,
or rather sympathizers with the visit
ors, sat in the grandstand and forced
the visitors to play bali.
Spurred on by the taunts of their
hackers, Browns following bumped to
the best of their abilities and won the
game. The score was to 6.
1t certainly was a smuggling match
to win. Timely hitting, however, and
base on balls did the business, and
while there was nothing at stake for
either team, Burlington would have
been pleased to get the decision There
were exactly LOG people present, and
they managed to make some noise and
incidently got the worth of their mon
ey.
Marshalltown led off we'll. Williams
hit a two Dagger. He started to steal
third and came in 'on krebs bug
house" throw to Richards. All was
tight until the fifth when another run
leaked in for Marshalltown Spencer
singled, stole second and was sacrifice
ed to third, coming nome on Bocke-
Wits single.
AT this stage Burlington took a
brace. 1t started off with Armstrong,
who walked. Daley got the same treat
ment. Annis singled and all hands
advanced. Armstrong and Daley
scored on Keley's two base hit A
double by Neighbors and u single by
House and Williams failure to block
Spencers throw from center field, let
in three more scores and everybody
lined UP on easy street. In the fifth
House walked, stole second base, and
scored on Skaters double. In the
sixth Williams hit brace of bags. He
was advanced to third by Browns sim
gle, and came home on his end of
double steal, Brown being caught be-
tween second and first. Corkill was
up next with a lucky home run. The
situation thus became rather squirmy.
In the next inning Thomas found Arm
strong for base hit. Slapnicka
drove to Kelley Thomas raced home
on Harris single. Slapnicka, who
was on third, tried to score on Will
Jams out to Daley, but was thrown
out at the plate. In the next inning
the Brownies got two by hit and run
tactics and the best of number of
hairbreadth decisions by Umpire An
derson. The score in detail:

WANTS MORE DREDGES.
Canal Commission Asks Bids on the
Pine Line Kind

Washington, Dec 2S.=Revised
specifications have been prepared by
the isthmian canal commission for two
pipe line dredses to be used at Laboca
and Cristobal. Under the original
specifications bids were asked for on
these dredses delivered in this coun-
try. The new specifications ask for
proposals on the dredges delivered
ready for work in Panama. one on the
Pacific side of the isthmus and the
other on the Atlantic side. Propose Is
are also asked on the machinery
knocked down in Panama.
These dredges are requested for
harbor work as we'll as for dredging
mission now has two dipped dredges
at work in Panama and third dredge
of this description is now being fitted
for the commission. The cost of these
dredges varied from 100000 to $1O2,-
800 and it is expected that the cost of
the proposed pipe line dredges Will be
a bout the same.
In addition to these smaller dredges
the commission has also two seagoing
dredges in process of construction
near Baltimore. Each of these is 800
feet long and is ca pable of going to sea
under its own steam at a speed of 10
knots an hour
one Of these will be used on the
Pacific side of the zone. the other on
the Atlantic Several old bucket
dredges left on the isthmus by the
French are in use on the canal work
but they are of an obsolete type and
much less effective than modern
dredges

EMANCIPATION OF WOMEN.
Moses Harmon, the Editor of Lucifer,
Will Continue His Work.

Kansas City, Dec. 2S.='I agree to
live with you in the holy bonds of
matrimony SO long as love doth last
but no longer"
This is the new marriage VOW ad-
vocated by Moses Harmon, the re-
former wholswas released from the

afternoon and Harmon held small
reception. He talked of his new
philosophy.
81 was a school teacher, justice
of the peace and a Methodist circuit
rider for thirty years of my life said
the editor of Lucifer, Light Bearer.
In that period 1 noticed among all
classes of people a deplOrabie lack OF
knowledge concerning the suplect OF
marriage. My observations led me to
give my life over to a campaign of
enlightenment. Before the war l was
an abolitionist and advocated the free
ing of the negroes 1 am still an abo-
litionist with the difference that 1 am
now fighting for the emancipation Of
women. I belive in woman owning
her own soul. regard the marriage
VOW that is now required by law as an
immoral promise"
The grav haired man was growing
intense now. He was coming to the
very heart of his doctrine.
cit is immoral because whether the
love sentiment continues or not the
man and woman are compelled to live
together. The law requires the couple
to promise to love, cherish and obey
each ether for life when they know in
their hearts that it is possible for
them not to love each other at all
after they have lived together a few
months I do not object to formal
marriages but I do say that when a
man and woman cease to love each
other they should not be required to
live with each other for the mere sake
of appearance. The marriage vow
which / advocate puts people on their
good behavior and does not compel a
woman to suffer all kinds of indigni-
ties from an Overbearing man.
Under my teachings a woman is
exalted and is permitted to regard
herself as human individual and not
merely as the annex of some man. She
is not given away in marriage as I'M
der the old law and man is not the
peer Of woman according to the new
philosophy"
Have you any followers living in
Kansas City?'' he was asked.
Il do not regard that as fair ques-
ton he replied
Finally he admitted that he had be-
livers here, but said that he wished
to protect them from any notoriety.
What is the difference between
Mrs. Parsons theory OF trial mar
riages' and your own doctrines?" was
asked the new thought apostle.
IN her theory the couple, at the
end of the trial period, are supposed
to separate or to be married by law,
according to the success of the expert
ment In my philosophy there are no
binding vows under any circum-
stances.

ENGINEERs' DEMANDS
General Managers Met at Chicago to
Discuss Wage Increase Requests.

General managers of all the railroads
west of Chicago met TO discuss the de-
mands of the engineers for an increase
in wages At previous meetings the
railway officials agreed not to grant
the demand for higher wages made by
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers in behalf of the engineers of all
the roads, but to follow the custom
Of letting each road deal with COM
mittee representing its own engineers
alone.
It is stated that the demands for
wages have been presented to some Of
the roads which should be considered
by all lines A strike of engineers on
any road is not desired at this time by
railway managers. Whether the engi-
neers are determined to adhere to their
original demands and will insist that
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers act for all OF them. or whether
they will continue to treat through
committees with the roads individually
probably will be disclosed at today's
meeting.
