SHE FAILED
TO MEET THEM

Now that all have been put next
on the incident of meeting Miss Dan
Iro" at Groves Pharmacy. the story
can be told. The entrance to that
place of business has been immensely
popular during the past few evenings.
and it is safe to say that there is
many a sadly disappointed man AT
the drug store there are many letters
addressed to Miss Dandro, but they
have not been called for as yet.
Early in the week more than a hun
dred prominent men about the city re-
ceivad a lette written in a neat fem
mime hand to the effect that they, the
man. had been pointed out to this sup
posed young woman by a friend. and
hat she had become so favorably i'm
pressed that she would like to meet
aim at the drug store that evening at
S:15. The signature, Yours OF you
want mel, Mi Dandro,' appears to
have struck some of the good fell
lows" just about right.
At any rate, when the hour arrived
mere was many a man watching the
entrance to the store very anXiously.
Some dropped inside and inquired If
ired bottles of dandruf cure on dis
liay there.
Had they looked in the handsome
.isplay window they would have found
Miss Dandro'' on more than hun
ired bottle of dandruff cure on display
here.
There were many others who imme-
lately recognized the clever adver-
III ing scheme and turned the joke on
their wives. They managed to drop
he letter in their homes. and of course
wffey found it and was soon on the
hubby's back. The fact is. that this
publication of the incident is necessary
o square some of the perpetrators Of
the jocks.

THE GAME

Wade Dury's bunch of Weston bar
tender-balI tossers came. saw. and
conquered the local mixers yesterday
at Union Par Accounts of the score
are somewhat divided, but IL seems to
be the impression that the really truly
count was about, mind about, nineteen
to six There were many laughable
incidents connected with the exhibi
ton. among which can be mentioned
Gin's wonderful slide to third IN the
early stages of the game. Had the
fence not bee nthere he surely would
have fallen or the park. Then there
was Mart McDonnell's sensational
work in left field, and Dick Goodwin's
superb pitching and his equally splen-
did handling of the third cushion. Bill
Lyons and Frank Keelan assisted him
materially in this latter job. Dick
started the game OF for the locals, but
weakened from the unusual exercise
in the fourth, and was succeeded BIZ

Charles Dallas was much In evidence.

main responsible for the runs gathered
IN by Clarksburg. FREQ Gous was SN-
tremely ornamental on the bench, hut
Dan Camp stumbled across case OF
mistaken identity and started to chase
We little Freddy away, but some one
told his nibs that Freddy was the man
ager of the outfit and he was allowed
to remain. AS to the game there Is
absolutely nothing to write about.
Weston first got the Hcals on the run
and kept them there, whereas, had
conditions been reversed and the 10
Gals had the pleasure of viewing the
first balloon ascension, then 1t would
have been just as bad in the other
direction. But all the same the local
r. I. l.. realized neat little sum from
the game, for which they are duly
grateful and apprecIative.
