Captain Nichols hammered the leather for a couple of two sackers and Lachance got one of the doubles. The boys were hitting pretty well even if the fielding was a bit ragged.
 For the benefit of those who are betting in the pools. the Democrat states that the same custom will bs followed this year as last. All TUBS that are scored will he counted. if it is a tie game the runs actually made will be counted. The record will be placed in the window every Saturday night.

WRESTLING DOUGLASS IS
 EMPHATIC
Says Jack Roach's Challenge Was a BIuff-Maupas Was Up
 in Torrington.
Waterhury. May 2. 1907.

Sporting Editor Democrat:
 Dear Sir: Some weeks ago an item was inserted in the Waterbury Democrat in which MT Roach chal- lenged lazy Winters of New Haven to wrestling contest for $100 as a side bet. As far as can be learned MT Roach himself did not put that challenge out. MT uianella of New Haven accepted the challenge and 1 do not SC why the person did not come good with the money who put the challenge in the paper. l think it was a bluff on his part all the way through, but he made a mistake in bringing MT Winters name into the matter. as his manager and back CT are hot on the trail of all such people. Respectfully,
 MIR DOUGLASS.

Emile Maupas, the French-Canas dian champion who defeated John Perelli, the Italian wrestler, few weeks ago. wrestled last night against Peter Hetter, the German heavyweight up in Torrington. Hets ger got the first fall in 22 minutes using the half Nelson, and Maupas got the next two falls, the first in IS minutes with an arm and bar-lock and the second hold in 22 minutes with body hold. The preliminary bout was between George Decker and Siro Italiane. who have been trying to get together since Italiane got the decision at Windsor Locks. At that time Decker complained of unfair treatment. but last night they were both on even ground. as each had a chance at his fayorite method. Italiane threw Decker in nine min utes wrestling Graeco-Roman style and Decker threw 1taliane In eight and one-half minutes catch-as-catch- can. A large crowd witnessed the bouts.

THE LITTLE FELLOWS.
Column Reserved For School Teams
 and Minor Leagues. |.

Up in Watertown yesterday after noon the Taft school team received a drubbing at the hands of the Yale second nine, which was caused more by the unprecedented number of er- TOTS than for any other reason. Sab lin pitched good enough ball to win out any ordinary kind of a game and he was we'll backed by Connors, but in the field he was given the most miserable kind of support and errors were as plentiful as were the cold winds that blew over the playing field. The cold weather may nave accounted for the many misplays, and the adherents of the Taft boys look to see them do better work in the game to follow. The score:
 RH E Yale Sd 2O36 6O25 O-1S g Taft .... O004 o 0 o 0-- 4 5 13 Batteries-Van Week, Cornell and Merrill; Sablin and Connors; um- pire, Maloney.

The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1907-05-24

Some were waited blocks out Of the
way and some fell unnoticed.
Night found him disheartened and
despairing. He was about ready to
let loose and fall into the street
Daylight came again, and with ii
hope. Lammert says that during the
morning he declared he would end his
misery by jumping-but that he was
afraid he would alight on some one
and kill bim-so postponed the jump
until night. The grim jest kept re.
curing all day.
About o'clock that afternoon Curtis
Logan, an employee Of brokerage
firm in the building across the street,
happened to glance out the window
He saw Lammert and stopped to look
"That fellow is a long time fixing that
pipe" he thought, for on the preceding
day Logan had seen Lammert, noticed
his pefilous position and watched him
for time. thinking he was daring
workman repairing the pipe.
Suddenly the thought struck him that
the man could not get out Of the
CEeFdSSo Ill lie Sue Ol Tie UullOluS.
He watched awhile longer, and then,
hurrying to the elevator, descended:
crossed the street and went up to the
life insurance company Office, where
lie raised the alarm.
The employees were skeptical, but
Logan insisted that man was on the
ledge. Then some one remembered
Lammert and his odd disappearance.
The window was thrown open, and
some one shouted Lammert's name
The result was feeble cry for help.
Telephone messages summoned men
from the nearest fire station. A rope
was swung from the window by Lam.

way he walked over to his desk, put
the paper he had saved upon it and
toppled over in a dead faint.

Tho Cause of Snorina,

This Is not for you, because you
never snore. No one ever does snore
himself. 1t is always the other fellow.
But you can read this and then tell
that guilty other fellow how to break
himself of his bad habit, for snoring
Is merely a bad habit and as such
can be overcome. 1t Is caused pri-
marily by improper reathing-that is,
breathing through the mouth instead
of through the nostrils-so, first of all,
care should be taken during waking
hours to breathe correctly. The habit
once formed of keeping the mouth as
firmly closed as possible, he will be
less likely to sleep with it open. Then
see that your troublesome snorer has
proper pillow. He should sleep with
his head as fiat as possible, for if his
head is pushed forward and the neck
bent the tongue drops back against
the soft palate and forms an obstruc-
ton which makes all the unmusical
sounds we hear when the air is forced
past tt.-St. James Gazette.
