BASE Ball.

The Tallahassee base ball team has
done exceedingly we'll this season; Every
member of the team deserves individ-
ual praise and congratulations for his
splendid and excellent work in support
of his town and team.
The star pitcher is Walter McLin,
who has the best record for batting and
pitching of any of the twirlers. In the
field, Thos. Hancock and Roy Hutchen-
son deserve especial mention for their
faultless fielding and fine stick work.
Hutchinson batted about $50, something
seldom seen anywhere. His good play
ing should have been mentioned before,
as he has undoubtedly been the season
star.
Puleston, the lank second baseman,
made several grand-stand plays, and is
a steady man on bag number 2.
Jaeobie was catching 'hard to beat
until his hand was disabled and he was
compelled to clay off.
Grambling, Costa, Hamlin and Elliott
all did excellent work in their respective
positions.
The team is a strong one, and has
lost but two games this season one 70
Blakely and one to Greenville. Give
them your support, as the season is not
vet over. Several other games are
scheduled to be played here.

George J. Mitchell, a travelling man
from Newark, N. j., and who stops at
the Gibson House when in Cincinnati,
dropped into a telephone booth in that
hotel Thursday. He found lying in booth
a pocketbook containing ten-thousand-
bills 500, 600 all told-and valuable
Going to the clerks desk he placed
them there for safe keeping Soon Frank
Gard, president of the Gard Mining
Company, of Denver, Colo, who was
stopping at the Hotel Lackman, rushed
into the booth and out again, greatly
excited. He asked the clerk IL he had
found a pocketbook, and the man behind
the desk required him to describe It,.
'sAnd you left a pOcketbook, replied
the clerk, containing 500, 600 in tel
ephone bOoth?"
F''My friend, " gasped the excited man,

heard Of it,"
as this your property" asked the
clerk, as he placed the fortune back in
his hands.
All kinds of questions were asked. Mr..
Gard asked who found it, and went 70
| the Lackman and offered one SIC, 900 bill
to Mitchell who could not bring himself
to accept 1t.
In lieu of that, however, he gave him
SIC, 600 worth of mining stock, which
sells at par, and told him II he kept 1t II
would some day make him some money

Local Militia.

In Tallahassee there is as good mate
rial for a military company as IN any
town in Florida, none excepted. LOOK
around you at the young men from
eighteen upward and you will find
enough for one of the best military
companies the State has yet seen.
We have talked to many Of the boys
and nearly every one is heartily in favor
Of a company. Then what is the mat
ter? There is no encouragement, no
backing. The town must be interested
in the movement, and some older citi.
zens must head il. We have no doubt
but that good men could be gotten as
officers, and that with the membership
Of twenty-five young men, good COM
pany could be formed. :,
Get to work! Do somethingl Talla-
hassee, the capital city Of the State OF
Florida, a town Of over five thousand
inhabitants, growing daily, and no mill
tary company! We are laughed at by
nearly every little burg of eight hun

MORE DIPPING VATS Are BEING
MADE TO DESTROY FEVER TICKS

ed into the pastures there would be q
heavy loss in oil, as an average steer
will carry more than two gallons out
OF the vat.
The dipping season begins in Okla
hcma early in April, with the first
shipment of cattle from the western
ranges of Texas to the rich pastures
of the Osaeg Indian reservation, which
begin to turn green in that month
These Texas cattle have been on win
ter ranges, and are so poor that they
can hardly walk. Many die of ex-
haustion during the journey, which is
made at high rate of speed, cattle
trains often taking precedence over
passenger trains at this season of the
year. All day long in some portions
Of Oklahoma the horizon line is black
with the smoke of continuous trains
loaded with cattle for Oklahoma pas
lures. In the past two years seven or
eight dipping stations have been es-
tablished in the 0sagee reservation
and Indian Territory.
Dipping begins as soon as the eat
tie are unloaded at the dipping sta
tions. Thirsty and hungry, and in
strange surroundings, the cattle begin
bawling and moving in a circle, or
milling" This tumult continues for
hours. The cowboys strain their lungs
to be as noisy as the cattle, swearing
snd shouting as they prod the cattle
forward in the corral leading to the
dipping vat.
A big. tswny, long-horned steer
shifts danger as he moves toward the
smooth floorway that pitches down
ward to the pool. As his forefeet be-
Gin to slide from under him, the steer
scrambles to save himself, but he
gains speed with every inch he moves,
and in a moment he plunges headlone
through the air, and lands in the black
greasy liquid.

oRCNAdi w thC ''OiMs
Lawton, Okla, August 14.-News-
PAPER correspondents in sending out
certain dispatches concerning the act
of congress providing for the opening
Oh the pasture lands, have stated that
the bill requires that the president
shall issue hs proclamation at least
sixty days prior to the opening Of the
sale. Such is not a precision Of the
bill, and the COZ respondents have un-
doubtedly confused the pasture bill
with the statehood bill.
The act provides that the lands
shall be disposed of within six months
from the date Of the signing of the
bill and makes no reference to date
for the president s proclamation.
Another matter that has received a
good amount Of discussion is that rel
ative to .he disposition of lands re-
naming unsold after December 9.
The act provides that the secretary
Of the interior may make rules gov
erning the disposition of remaining
lands, and may sell them under these
rules during the five years immediate
ly following the coming sale.

Standard Oil Indicted.

A federal grand jury at Chicago,
after long struggle, has returned an
indictment against :he Standard Oil
company on the charge of having lille
gally received :, rebate on storage
charges from the Lake Shore railroad
The indictment contains nineteen
charges, each count constituting a
separate charge. The press accounts
are somewhat vague and misleading,
but IT is definitely stated that the
amount of benefit thus derived by the
Standard amounted toss, ,5O6.7 72 during
n period from August. 1903 to Febru.
AIRY, 1904. This is the substance of
the charge. an dthe government will
POW strive TO secure . conviction un.
dei the Elkins law, which provides a
fine of from $1,000 to $4,000 foi
each violation.
The matter will now come up before
the courts, and the Standard Oil will
present its line of defense. Ii is
claimed that the Standard was not
called upon to pay 5 cents per ton pei
day storage charges by the railroad.
which its competitors were compelled
to pay. This. it is alleged. is equival-
ent to granting a concession and in
the nature of rebate in favor of the
Standard Oil company.
II is altogether probable that if any
such concession was made il was done
in exchange for services rendered by
the Standard that its competitors
were unable ~ were not called upon
10 perform. The charges cover a pc
ri d 90 over eighteen months. and il
remains 10 be seen just exactly what
amount Of business the Standard com.
petitors transacted during this time,
and the amount of the alleged dis
elimination against them. II will be
seen that IL the Standard only bene-
fted $4,000 during this period. and
was doing by far the greatest proper
ton Of the oil business, the amount Of
the discrimination against its conpet-
