brought about in the eighth inning
and the way in which the Hampton

sively that the local Association is
determined to land the pcnnant before

Although Fort Monroe took the lead
in the first inning by getting two ar

score. Hampton did not score n run
until the third inning. In the eighth

The fact that Fort Monroe secured
two tallies in the first inning was
due largely to the ragged throwing
of Virkmeyer After this the team
settled down and the exhibition was
an exceptionally brilliant one, three
double plays being made.
Balmer was in good trim and pitch

nine of them to the bench. Cunning

ADVANTAGE A WIDOW HAS.
At Least They Don't Have to Sit and
Watch Husbands Flirt.

81 saw such a pretty woman at
disadvantage the other night" the lit
tie real widow was saying. "She was
married. She was sitting at table
with some other pretty women and
handsome men and her husband. Her
husband began to flirt outrageously
with one of the women. / wish you
could have seen the look that came
over her face. Everybody In the room
saw how distressed she was.
Now, what I want to know is this.
Why didn't she go TO work and firt
with one Of the handsome men to get
even? Anyone of them was quite
ready and willing, but, liz, wives never
seem to be able to do that. They just
BIB ready to cry, with everybody no.
ticing
That's the advantage we real wild
ows have over wives. We don't have
to sit and watch our husbands flirting
with other women. We know where
they arc; and We also know that what
ever they may chance to be doing
they are probably not flirting"
