BASE BALL, =

Kennedy's men slipped and fell
down the percentage ladder yesterday
while Ottumwa wrung from them the
second Of the series to 4, with what
T stands as a seasons record SO far as
hard and constant hitting was con-
cerned. Hatch was the target for the
pelting the visitors administered. A
total Of fourteen safe hits, stretching
around twenty-one bases, is the sum-
mary Of the efforts Of Corbett's team
to win with the stick.
The batting statistics tell however,
only part Of the story to which must
be added a couple of errors, a wild
pitch and other mistakes that figured
In, and aided Ottumwa in carrying
home no less than half of the scores
they got. The wild pitch Hatch got
rid Of in the seventh inning was re-
sponsible for two Of the scores that
were made.
Ottumwa not only outhit, but out
played the home team, and the pitcher,
Fleming, whom Corbett sent in against
the locals while far from being extra
ordinary, kept the nine hits so far
apart that no earned runs resulted.
Ottumwa's errors were also costly, as
they entered into all of the scores the
losers ran in In spectacular fielding
feats both Forney and Burg showed
prominently.
Both teams got away in the first inn-
ing with a single. score. The game ran
tie until the fifth, when Burgs error
gave Crittenden an opening to score.
This lead was further increased by
another score in the sixth on Will

MAYOR OFFERS SOS REWARD
lnaIedue Says That the First Thing
Marsh alltown People Will Know VIII
Be That Some Child Has Died From
Poisoned Candy or Sugar Thrown
Out for Dog Bait.

Mayor Ingledue today authorizes on
behalf Of the city reward OF $2o 1of
information that will lead to the ar
rest and conviction Of persons guilty
OF throwing out poison for dogs. me
mayor says that If the guilty people
can be found prosecutions to the limit

While Mayor 1ngledue believes rhat
Marshalltown would probably De as
lwell off without SO many dogs, ne
thinks that the city can look aIterl the
disposition of unlicensed CANNES, ana
put them out Of the way in a proper
manner. He considers it shame that
promiscuous poisoning has been car
ried to the extent that 1t has W1tnln
the past few weeks, and that many
valuable dogs and harmless pets whose
masters have paid the city license pro-
tecting them have been Killed by some
people who seem to have an insane
desire for widespread slaughter.
This is not the worst phase OF the
case, however, from the mayors view
point. Mr.. Ingledue IL afraid that
Marshalltown will awake some morn
ing to find that some child has died
from eating poisoned car.dy or sugar
thrown out as tempting bait for
some dog. It is mainly to prevent the
possibility Of this occurring that ne is
offering the reward in an effort to stop
dog poisoning.

The loss Of an only child OF aged par
ents is mourned this week by hosts of

The death of a young person is always
sad, but it is especially SO when it re-
moves from an aged couple the only
comfort they have in their declining
years.
The high prices for which horses
are selling In Marshall county should
prove an inducement for some enter
prising farmer to turn his attention to-
ward raising more horses and less Of
some of the other kinds of stock in
which the market is uncertain. A
farmer would not have to sell mary
head at $500 each to do profitable
years business. A local horse buyer
disposed of one at $500 this week.
There is at least one newspaper pub
lished in the smaller towns of the

logical view of the special election to
authorize the supervisors to purchase
