BAXTER WIS W0RSLEDI

BY that heading we do not
mean that the postmaster has re-
ceived the worst of it; neither do
we mean to imply that the town
has received a black optic. We
simply have reference to the ball
game which was played last Sum
day by the Joplin Browns and
the Baxter ball team. The Bax-
ter team was beaten by score of
7 to 6, but this result was not be-
cause of the superior playing of
the visitors. The Baxter pitcher
and the star batter were at Wich-
tia seeing the Joplin league team
get the daylights whipped out of
her by the Wichita team, so the
Baxter aggregation was badly
crippled.
Each team made a score in the
first inning, and there the score
stood until the visitors went to
bat in the fourth. 1t was during
this inning that Baxter went up
in the air and the visitors made
six runs. That made it seven to
one, but when the home team got
hold of the 6tick four runs were
pounded out, making the score z
to S. After that the only count
made was by Baxter, making the
score Z to 6, and there it stood
when the game was over. After
they settled down to business, and
that was after the visitors had
pounded out the six runs in the
fourth, Kenoyer's colts did not
GLOW the visitors to score again.
Baxter's pitcher was a rather
weak sister, and the fans could
plainly see that if Dardenne and
Warford had been in the game
the result would have very differ
ent. Baxter made numerous bad
errors up to the end of the fourth,
but after that the game was very
interesting.
The game next Sunday prom
Uses to be a pretty one. The
boys will be here, and their team
has the reputation of being one
of the best amateur aggrega-
tons in this section. We trust
there will be a large crowd out.

Notes and Comment On
The New Fall Goods

Among the dress fabrics plaid silks
come in the prettiest of combinations and
most striking effects. The very latest are
the three-tone shadow plaid silks, Roman
and Pekin effects. All of these are very
handsome and decidedly stylish.
Chevron checks promise to be leaders In
the Atwood fabrics. There is nothing bet
ter for skirts than these invisible plaids,
small checks and hair line stripes that we
are showing.
The new broadcloths are also arriving in
force and taking prominent place at the
head of the stock.
Feathered Turbans are first candidates
among the fall hats for popular approval
and winners, too. Covered entirely in
feathers of solid shade with dainty wing
of contrasting color, they make a handsome
effect.
The new Alpine hats also carry out the
prevailing vogue of plaid-adopting the
most beautiful assortments for trimming.
They follow out the masculine tendency of
fashion in a jaunty manner.
A small but important detail of dress,
that all women will appreciate are these
new plaid belts that we are showing. Some
of them are form fitting, some in girdle eff
fects and others have elastic properties to
commend them. The colorings all are strik-
ingly new, and the price named-5Oc, LOO,
$3.50, places them within the reach OF all.
Last but not least, we want to say word
of praise for the dainty new lines OF brio
a-brac which have just been added to stock,
in the china department People who have
grown weary of seeking for something new
for wedding gifts or for something unique
and artistic for corner or mantel IN their
own home-will welcome them heartilv

Constant arrivals of new fall goods. A
week ago few suits and skirts were all

The wash goods are being picked up as
fast as they appear In fact we have never
seen the new goods taken as quickly from
the tables as these during the past week.
Of course, the reason is so many mothers
are preparing dresses for school wear for
next month. But besides this, the beauty
of the goods and the very moderate prices
have considerable to do with the eager buy
ing.

The Reception of Bryan by the
 AlabamianS.

Birmingham, Ala, Sept. 21.-The re- ception of w. J. Bryan in Birmingham today fell short of the attendance that has marked his former visits to this city. The returned traveller was greeted cordially along the route of the parade, but the crowds were much smaller than expected. MT. Bryan was delayed nearly two hours in reaching the city by a small wreck at Iron City. Ala. so that the carrying out of the program here was late.
 After the parade he was rendered a luncheon. at which covers had been laid for 300. Following this he spoke at the Bfjou theater. There were evi- dences of the old-time enthusiasm, for he was greeted by a warm demOnstra- ton. and at the close the cheering amounted to little short of an ovation His three principal topics were gov- ernment ownership of railroads, the flching of democratic platform ideas by the republicans. and the proposed independence of the Philippines

FAMILY RUNT Kansas Man Says Coffee Made Hin

Coffee has been used in our family of eleven-father, mother, five sons and four daughters-for thirty years; I am the eldest of the boys and have always been considered the runt of the family and a coffee tOper.
 T continued to drink it for years un- til I grew to be a man, and then I found I had stomach trouble, nervous head aches, poor circulation, was unable to do a full days work, took medicine for this, that, and the other thing without the least benefit. In fact l only weighed 116 when I was 2S.
 Then I changed from coffee to Post um being the first one in our family to do so. I noticed, as did the rest of the family, that I was surely gaining strength and flesh. Shortly after I was visiting my cousin who said, You look so much better-you're getting fat

AS A LAWYER
 NOT SENATOR
Bailey Was Retained by the
 Lumber King
Kirby's Denial of Accusa- tiOns Against the Texas Statesman.

Houston Sept 21.-John H. Kirby, president of the Kirby Lumber com pany, made the following statement to- day relative to the employment of Sen ator Bailey in the sale of Kirby's in terests in the Kirby Lumber company, for which it was stated MT. Bailey re- ceived a fee of S225, 900 for disposing of S3, 100000 of property and in reply to published criticisms:
 The statement that I employed MT. Bailey because of his influence in the United States senate is false. I em- of the Kirby Lumber company's treasury assets that certain Wall street interests were fraudulently seeking to take from me. I em- pIoyed Mr. Bailey because of his eminent ability as a lawyer and his knowledge of the Texas statutes and court practice which enabled him to cope with the situation better than a New York lawyer could have done. The fee paid him was smaller than would have been charged by a New York lawyer to successfully represent me-
 President Ripley of the Santa Fe, wired here today from Chicago: 'The statement that Senator Bailey ever had any negotiations with us is untrue. All our transactions with MT. Kirby or the lumber company were conducted by me and with Kirby in person. I never saw Bailey in my life and never knew that he was connected with MT. Kirby or the lumber company as an at torney or otherwise
