the release of Harry X. Hoch, con-
sidered by many the most promising
young pitcher in the Tri- State League.
Mr. Shettsline also notified Chairman

that the Philadelphia Club had re-
purchased the release Of Chester Crist,
catcher. and Walter Moser, pitcher,
from the Trenton Club, and also George
McQuillen, pitcher, and ]. f. Donovan.

the Eastern League There has not been
a catcher in the Tri- State League that

OUT OF SHOOT

The annual meeting of the National
Rife Association of America began
at the club house Of the Ohio State
Rifle Association at Camp Perry Ohio,
during the national rifle matches today.
Twelve directors will be elected for
a period of three years. The report
of the secretary Of the association will
show splendid progress during the
past year
Under the vigorous and energetic ad-
lministration of General James A. Drein,
president of the association, it has in
creased rapidly in membership both of
military organizations and rifle clubs,
as we'll as life members. Headquar-
ters have been established in New
York city and the campaign for a mil
lion marksmen" is being vigorously
prosecuted.
After the National Rifle matches and
those of the National Rifle Association,
which will be shot at Camp Perry, the
attention of the rifle world will be
turned toward Sea Girt, New Jersey,
where the matches of the New Jersey
state Rifle Association will be shot
from September to Z, inclusive. Prob
ably a majority Of the teams from
Camp Perry will proceed to Sea Girt for
these matches
Although Delaware National Guards
men are much interested in the sub
iect of rifle matches they will not be
represented this year in the events at
Sea Girt There is a number of crack
shots in the Organized Militia of Della
ware who, on previous occasions have
proved themselves worthy to shoot
among the best.

A Great Roast!

Over ton of ArbucI5Ies' Ariosa
Coffee is roasted at a time, in large
revolving cylinder, which drops the
coffee through heat again and again
until each bean is uniformly roasted.
No other coffee is in suffi-
cient demand to afford such
scientific and perfect prepara-
tion.
The sales of ArbuckIes' Ariosa
Coffee exceed the sales of all other
packaged coffees combined, and this
scientific roasting, which no other
coffee can afford, by its very magni-
tude, reduces our cost to a minimum,
and enables us, with our other advant-
ages, to give better value In ArbuckIes'
Ariosa Coffee than is possible for any
one else.
Arbuckles' Ariosa Coffee is
the cheapest good coffee in the
world, and the best of all for
you.
