The Muske.funqe,

The Indian name of this great fighter
of the fresh water lakes and tributa-
ries is 'esoKmasquinongy." Our nat
uralists have the word translated into
about eight or nine different styles, but
the correct way of spelling it in our
language is undoubtedly .'muskel-
lunge." Most fishermen. however
pronounce and spell 1t to suit them
selves, and no man seems to be an ac-
cepted authority. 1t is one thing In
Canada. another in the st. Lawrence
and another in the great lakes. The
favorite among New Workers Is mus
callonge.' The fish reaches a length
of seven and a half feet, and the big
gest ever taken is said to have
weighed ninety-two pounds. In game
ness it is said to surpass the tarpon
of the Caribbean and the tuna of the
Pacific.-New York Press.

ROBINSON MOLDERS DIS
PUTE HOOSIER CLAIMS
Will Meet Reputed Champions
AT Baseball.
GOOD CONTEST EXPECTED.

Owing to the fact that the molders
of the Hoosier Drill foundry have TAX
en- it upon themselves to claim the
championship over all the molders in
the city in base ball, the employees of
the Robinson foundry have decided to
dispute the claim and give the Hoos-
iers a good chance to prove it. Ac-
cordingly game has been arranged
for Saturday morning between the en-
ployes of the two foundries, and it is
expected that the Robinson and Hoos-
Ter Drill employees will turn out full
force to view what will prove to be
very fast and exciting game. Al
though the Robinson men are boast
ing very loudly of their league pitcher
and what he is going to do when he
stretches his six feet in the pitchers
box Saturday morning. the Hoosiers
are equally confident as to the ability
of Johnnie Bertrand who will do his
best to twist his curves all around the
necks of the Robinson aggregation.

Rather Confusing.

Nowadays the duties of clerk and
sexton are usually performed by the

told of a person who, visiting a village
church and being struck by the knowl-

the old man who was taking him
round, asked his guide what occupa-
ton he followed We'll said the old
man. Il hardly know what 1 be. First

BASEBALL GOSSIP.
(By Tort.)
BY Tort.)

The Quakers, under command of
Captain Jimmy Cameron, left for Van
Vert, O., where they will play three
game series, ending on Thursday. On
Friday, Saturday and Sunday the 10
Gals will play the Buckeye outfit at
Athletic park.
Manager Jessup was unable to ac-
company the team owing to very
painful charley horse" The muscles
of his right leg have contracted into
lump the size of goose egg and
the game little manager is hardly able
to navigate. He remained home to
have the charley horse curried so
that he will be in shape for the Van
Vert series here, the latter part of
the week.
Billy Meredith of Lynn, who played
shortstop for the locals a few games
last spring, will catch for the locals
at Van Vert. Billy is a good catcher
but the services of Manager Jessup,
the premier catcher of the league. will
be greatly missed. Before the team
left, Jessup appointed Jim Cameron
acting manager.
Fleming is probably working in the
first game at Van Vert. Manager
Jessup has ordered Pitcher Wentz to
join the team at Van Vert so it is ex-
pected that he will work in the game
Wednesday.
Ritter had more work Monday than
a Hebrew at fire sale. The little fell
low accepted seven chances and field
ed them all Clearly. One he nailed by
a long sprint to the uncut and another
he handled back of second base, near
ly colliding with Minzler.
Minzler'S work at short Monday
showed like an 1Sk diamond. The lit
tie fellow took everything in sight and
asked for more. Several times he
dashed in on ugly grounders, scooped
them in and retired the runner at
first without taking time to recover
himself. Minzler is no longer conner
He has came
Norris found his mislaid batting eye
Monday and he pelted the sphere glee-
fully. Two singles and three Dagger
out of five times up is a pretty good
days work. That triple on a smooth
outfield would have been a sure home
run.
jumps Runion had strenuous time
Monday. Both teams, principally the
visitors, from time to time sought his
gore. Once Bluffton batsman
dumped a bunt which hit him while
running to first. Under the rules the
runner was out but Runion refused to
call the man out. Bluffton takes
rank with the. Kokomo outfit when it
comes to masticating the linen May
heaven help the jumps when these two
outfits collide.
Mugsey Comingore has the distinc-
ton of being the first player to be
canned from the game in the new
league. Jumps Thompson tied the
wash boiler to him Monday. We ven
ture the prediction that Comingore
will have quite collection OF wash
boilers before the season closes.
The crowd which witnessed the
game Monday was a splendid one con-
sidering the fact that Monday is con-
sidered poor baseball day About
200 of the faithful were on hand and
they made as much noise as a boiler
shop.

The secretary spoke under the aus

fact that it is regarded as the platform
upon which he will make his campaign
for the Republican nomination for
president.
Mr.. Taft made no formal announce

President of the United States" which
was the signal for il prolonged outburst
of applause.
Special interest was manifested in
Taft's utterances on the tariff He re-
iterated his previous declarations in ia

would be both unwise and unsafe for
the Republican party to fail to pledge
itself to revise the Dingley law as soon
after the next presidential election as
possible.
Mr.. Taft also declared in favor of i'm

for violations of the antitrust law and
for tlp giving or 1ccpDtinp of rebates
