GOOD BASEBALL STORY.
J. +. Jones Tells Of a Funny Game He
Once Saw in a Small Town,

]. F. Jones, is an old time base
ball fan and the other night RECALLED
some fans with a remarkable tale of
the oldest finish he ever saw to ball
game.
1T was back in the early days said
Jones. The game was between a
couple of amateur teams.
In the last half of the ninth in
ming the score was to 6, there was
man on third and two were out. A
ball which had been thrown out of the
lot had been thrown back in, and had
rolled back of the pitcher. The ex-
citement was SO intense nobody
thought to pick it up and throw it out
of the diamond.
THE batter hit a sharp drive
through the box. The ball hit the 9TH
er ball, and up in the air they both
flew. Nobody knew which was which.
"One bounded to the second base
man and the other to the shortstop.
Each threw it to first base. The first
baseman stopped one ball with each
hand. but held only one, dropping the
other"
"How did they decide it?" asked an
eager listener.
II never knew, answered Jones,
'the players were all in a heap in
twenty seconds. Then the crowd mix
ed in, and l was busy as bee until
somebody reached me with bat.
When woke up, all of us that weren't
in the hospital were in JAIL"

IN 4 POISON FACTORY.
Workmen's Strong Desire to Taste
Product Of Their Labor.

Slip on this glass mask" said the
foreman. You will need it."
The visitor donned the uncanny
mask of glass and the foreman led
the way to the cyanide Of potassium
department.
I'VE make 1000 tons of cyanide a
year. he said. "A dose of five grains
is a fatal one. Thus our annual pro-
duct is enough to kill 100000 people"
He opened a door and a room filled
with writhing flames, dense shadows,
sparks, smoke and weird figures in
glass masks was revealed. In the CEN
ter of the room, in a great cauldron,
100 pounds of molten cyanide of po-
tassium bubbled and seathed. The
flames glinted strangely on the glass
masks.
The foreman cOughed.
These fumes" he said, "are whole
some. The men, you see, are all TO
bust. | have known weakly chaps,
working here among these strange
fumes, to pick up health and strength"
In another clean, cool room the fin
ished cyanide was stored. 1t looked
like crystalized white sugar, good
enough to eat.
Good enough to eat" said the fore
man gravely. well, we have had men
eat it. -Four men committed suicide
i'll that way. The fumes seem to
create in our men a desire to taste
the drug. They fight this desire, most
OF them, successfully, but they feel
it, the same as workers in coffee plants
want to chew the coffee beans, and
some feel it so strongly as to sue
cumb."
