Amateur Base Ball

In a spirited and interesting twelve
inning game Monday at the fair
grounds the "All Stars" a Marshall
town ball nine assembled for the occa-
sion, defeated the Red Men by one run.
There was a. large crowd Of fans on
hand to enjoy the sport, and the game,
which started at $3.50 p. M, was not
over until 6 o'clock. Perdue frequently
made decisions which failed to meet
with the most hearty approval Of the
folks looking on and came in for a good
deal of vociferous criticism, but stuck
to his post and was apparently not
discouraged by the situation
The battery for the Cali Stars who
had issued the challenge to the Red
Men, was Henry Tretter and Ross Sal
isbury, and for the Red Men, Mitchell
the unmerciful smuggling of the pellet
by Wagner, the Red Mems first base
man, who, among other things, made
a two Dagger and a single sack hit,
while Shutter, Of the CALI Stars" made
two Dagger. Shutter was also hit by
Mitchell while Tretter evened up this
little mistake by hitting WEIGH. Mitch
ell gave four men bases on balls and
Tretter did the same for seven men,
while the former pitcher struck out
fourteen and the latter eight men. The
score:

COLD KILLS THE GERM.
Lieut.. Perry Says There Are No Bald
Heads in the Arctic Reuion.

The people who come back from
Klondike testify to the fact that no ma
tive bald heads are there. The evidence
is that the cold climate kills the germs
that eat the hair off at the root. Lieut.
Perry, who went 10 the Arctic Regions
gives the same evidence. Newbro's
Herpicide has the, same effect as the
cold climate. 1t kills the germ that
eats the hair off at the roots, and the
hair grows again. Herpicide the first
hair remedy built upon the principle
OF destroying the germ that eats the
hair grows again. Herpicide is the first
onstrates the correctness of the scalp

In the last century ballooning was

In the electrical world the number

dare to prophesy any limit to them.
In fact, II is felt that this century will
witness even more marvellous achieve

ties of new discoveries that he cannot
retire permanently from the field.
There is scarcely leading industry in

slightest consideration OF IL will con
vince anyone that he is living in a
