Baseball Comment.

Here's hoping that the Islanders will
not meet the fate of the Detroit team,
champions of the American league,
who have now hit the bottom of the
percentage column
There were several noteworthy feat
ures in the league games yesterday.
Stovall of Louisville shut out the Min
neapolis team without allowing hit,
his performance being the first of the
kind at the Louisville American asso-
citation park. Philadelphia saw the
first triple play ever made there in an
American league game, Davis at first
|scooping UP fly, putting ont a man
who was on the initial sack and also
getting a man who was on second
Ats wild throw lost the game for the
Chicago White Sox to st. Louis in the
18th inning. TO 3. AS a result Billy
Purtell has been called to the front
to take the offending players place as
utility man.
Gus Dorner had the New York
Giants at his mercy yesterday an6
had not allowed them a hit when he
was struck on the ankle with liner
and forced to retire. New York ther
batted in two runs in the eighth and
won out.

Holding a Meeting.

The directors of the Rock Island
baseball club met this afternoon at
the Harper house to arrange the de.
tails of the opening of the league
season in this city Saturday. The
plans are to make the opening a very
quiet affair in comparison with the
pennant raising which will take place
after the team returns from the south
end of the circuit. Even though il
is to be quiet a brass band will likely
be on hand and the usual opening
program will be carried out.

rwo GAMES AND THEN HOME
No Prospective Changes in the Lineup,
Though Catcher Karnell Has
Been Released.

The champion Islanders leave to-
morrow morning to open the series of
1908 with Cedar Rapids. The lineup
for the opening game is to be the same
as has been used during the last games
played Manager Cook has not decid-
ed yet who will do the twirling in the
opener, and the catcher will depend
upon who the pitcher is. Edmunds
will be on first base, Cook on second,
and Mcbride on third. Berger will
play shortstop. The outfield will be
composed of the same men who were
there last year-Murphy in left, Dow
| ers in center, and Swain in right The
champions lineup appears TO be every
! bit as good as last year, and the man
should not stay near the top of the
| first division
Manager Cock is having a hard time
deciding which of his seven twirlers
to let go. The five from last year
who were good enough to win the pen
nant feel pretty sure of their jobs, but
Hardgrove and Powers are showing
championship form, and must be con,
sidered.
KarnelI is Released.
The catcher problem has cleared up
/ a little by the release of Karnell, who
will report to Monmouth of the Hi.
/ nois- Missouri league. This leaves
i Gilmore and Eng behind the bat, while
Edmunds the other backstop is hold
ing down the first sack.
i The team reported at the field this
Afternoon. and little light practice
was INDUCED in to timber the men up
after three days of idleness. They are
all in fairly good condition, though
i Umpire Stickney has been selected
to officiate at Cedar Rapids tomorrow
with Walsh at Dubuque, McGreevy al
bloomington. and Setley at Decatur.
The promise by the weather man is
of a generally fair article in Illinois
and > Iowa tomorrow, with rising tenn
Iperature, giving hope that the program
will not be interfered with from thai
source.
4 Saturday Dubuque will come home
with the Islanders 10 play here tha

CENSUS DIRECTOR
NORTH ACCUSED

NEW YORK, March l1.-Charges
of official dereliction are made
against S. N. D. North, Director of
the Census, i'll a letter which has
been sent to President Roosevelt by
Herman Ridder, president of the
American Newspaper Publishers AS
ISOLATION. Ridder charges that in :.
letter written to Representative Dali
cell on the subject of news print
paper prices for period of fifteen
years, Director North gave a series of
false and misleading figures" He
charges that the director failed to
exercise diligence in seeking for in
formation and that he used worthless
and secondary sources of informa-
ton.
That letter has been used on the
floor of Congress as an official pub
lication, says Ridder in his COM
munication to the President, land it
was declared by Chairman Payne of
the Ways and Means Committee to
be as accurate as can be-
II charge that the Director of the
Census has issued, in that letter,
series of false and misleading figures
and that, whether Intentional or not,
he has served the purpose of a group
of combinations which are aiming to
add sixty million dollars per annum
to the burdens of printers and pub
fishers"
Mr.. Ridder says that in those three
years thirty mills were merged into
the International Paper Company.
The letter says also: THAT the low
est price appearing anywhere in that
extraordinary compilation of the Dr.
rector of the Census is Sc per ton in
excess of the lowest price at which
paper has been sold in New York."
and that mo books of any large pa
per manufacturer will show such
prices as are credited by Director
North"

EXCURSION TO
CAMP Of HART

The Los Angeles Times in COM
menting on Camp Hart says:
1T is understood that those inter-
ested in the new California gold
camp are arranging for special ex-
cursion, which will be run over the
Santa Fe railroad from this city,
with the object of proving to Los An
geles and the entire mining world
the genuine character of the recent
finds. Arrangements have not yet
been completed, but it is expected
that the matter will come to a head
in few days and that the Chamber
OF Commerce and Chamber of Mines
will be asked to father the affair.
ut should be remembered that
Hart is the nearest gold camp to this
city, and that every dollars worth of
business emanating therefrom will ne
directly tributary to her commercial
houses. The trip is not long one,
and it is hoped by the promoters that
Los Angeles will show her interest in
the development of the vast mineral
riches at her doors by supporting the
excursion to the limit"

BONANZA Showing
in LANE PROPERTY

\ letter received by Geo. A. Lane
from his associates in Florence dis
trict in the Pine Forest range is of
"a very encouraging nature. The let
ter states that active work is in prog
ress on the property of the Rain
storm Gold Mining Company and on
the Spencer ground. and the results
are very satisfactory. The tunnel on
the former property is now in $50
feet and the ledge is likely to be en-
'countered at any time Work has
been hindered considerably on ac-
count of the heavy snowfall during
the past few weeks.
Work on the leases is going right
ahead and the ore being taken out is
rich in gold. Samples of the ore
sent in and assayed here gave the
extremely high values of $6436.4O.
s66, $54.40, $13,15O. $3.50 and
S23,390. The samples were taken
from the Rainstorm No. 3, where tho
leasers are operating and the values
7.are all in gold. Some of the ore
samples have been left at this Office
and they are beautifully sprinkled
with the yellow metal.
The ledge on the Rainstorm No. 2.
at depth of fifty feet, has widened
10 twelve feet. No. 2 shaft on the
same ledge, at depth of thirty-five
1eet, has an eleven-foot ledge.
The Rainstorm Gold Mining Com
pany, which was recently incorporat-
ed by Geo. A. Lane, u. Bryan. H. w.

LIFE CONVICTS
Are shot down

DEER LODGE. Mont, March 10.
Warden Frank Conley of Montana
State Penitentiary was fearfully
wounded this morning and his first
assistant warden, John Robinson,
was killed, when three life convicts.
George Rock, w. H. Hayes and an
other whose name is not given out,
made a dash for liberty in the peni-
Tertiary Office at s O'Clock. 1t is
thought the Warden will live.
Robinson's throat was cut from
ear to ear and the jugular vein was
severed. Conley's thorat was CASH
ed and he was stabbed several times
in the shoulder and groin before he
was able to draw his revolver and
shoot two of the assailants down.
Convicts Hayes and Rock were both
shot down by Conley after the latter
had been wounded The attack on
the prison authorities, and a subse-
quent effort to escape had been, &C.
cording to the prison authorities,
long planned by Rock and Hayes,
who were cellmates.
Both were armed with pen knives,
the blades of which were sharpened
like razors.

friendly. He relates how he was done
up by the former agent. Then the
traveller turns loose his walls of wrath.
He accuses the concern represented
by the first agent rs a robbing outfit,
and one that should be put out Of
business. He gets an order, but the
farmer does not understand that the
goods come from the same concern that
the other agent represented. That
only a different name was used. and
the farmer is on their regular list Of
suckers" The only safe way Tor
the consumer to do is to ~patronizo
home concerns. His home merchants
are interested in being fair and square.
They know that they must deal hon
estly or they will lose customers.
Their percentage of profit is far less
than that made by the box-car con-
Germ. Then, again, the principle Of
sending money from the neighborhood
where 1t is earned is all wrong. 1t Is
against the interests Of the consumers
OF every class and kind. A lively
home town always affords the best
market. There is a saving in freight
rates and commissions to middlemen.

A Queer Bargain Sale.

During Christmas week there oc-
cured in one of the poorest sections
of Philadelphia a unique bargain sale,
the like of which has seldom been wit
messed anywhere.
~Forty-ninth street on the West side
is the abode of the poor people Of
various ~nationalities, and it was in
this region that an enterprising butch
er displayed a sign in his window
which read: Bargains in oxtails to-
day" His store, which was small,
was soon crowded with the poor wom-
en- of the neighborhood, white and
black, who kept coming until the sup
ply of oxtails gave out. They emerged
from the place holding their pur-
chases in their hands like a bundle
of sticks, for the butcher Indignantly
refused-to wrap the parcels in paper.
Il sells dem de tails for holdings, and
den dey asks for paper to wrap 'em
in" was his comment as the women
filed past the bargain counter to the
street, being fastened along to make
room for the ever-iucreasing crowd Of
customers who were entering the
door.

SYSTEM IN BUSINESS.
Necessity Of Making Appearances Such
as to Please the Sensitive Public.

System in the average retail or even
wholesale house has advantages in
more ways than one. 1t is 10Y gen.
orally conceded that system is a neces-
sity to dispatch of either Office or
house work. 1t also is necessary to
appearance. A well-SystematiZed
store, no matter what kind of stock it
contains, presents a much handsomer
appearance than one with the odds
and ends jumbled together as If defy
ing human ingenuity to unravel it. The
eye-photo or unconscious mind impress.
sion received by the customer, while
totally unconscious of its impression.
is lasting and decisive.
The dealer and each of his clerks
may enter the store In which they
work and not notice the want of sys-
tenn, but the impression is constantly
going out with each visitor to your
place of business.
1t is well to occasionally look at the
matter from the other side of the
counter. Imagine yourself in the stead
of the customer. See what sugges-
lions you could make for an internal
improvement if the store belonged to
the other fellow. You will be sur
prised to see how many things you
would change.

Cleanliness About Stores.

Close observers note that the most
successful grocery stores are the ones
which are kept in the cleanest and
neatest order. There is a large class
of people, and they are not the richest
ones, either, who would rather have
good, clean groceries, things they
know are pure and kept right, and pay
a good price for them, than have in
ferior, carelessly kept goods at a cheap
price. Attractiveness about the grocery
is a most important thing. 1t means a
saving all around. In the southern
country where the summer weather
continues for the greater part of the
year too great care cannot be exer-
cised in the looking after stocks. A
little neglect will cause losses that
will prove serious. Some classes of
goods if not protected from insects
will be soon ruined. The grocer who
would have his windows attractive
will do well to avoid having stale
things displayed. He should strive to
make an impression that his stocks Gre
clean and well-kept.

draw into your lungs drives away this
cleanses the lungs and brings oxygen
into the system. And oxygen not only
strengthens the lungs, but invigorates
the entire body.
By regular, deep breathing you
keep a large supply Of oxygen in your
lungs, which passes into the whole
system, strengthening and invigorat-
ing you and rendering you far less
liable to disease. Moreover, you are
not only much less liable to catch cold,
but, if you do catch cold, the strength
ened condition of your lungs averts
pneumonia or consumption. In other
words, the increased oxygen that is
constantly pumped into your lungs by
deep breathing will do more to make
you a good all-around athlete than will
ten years training.
Short Breath in Running.
When you have run a long distance
why do you pant and gasp for breath?
Is it because your lungs have given
out? 1t is not. God made your lungs
as strong as any other part of your
body. Your lungs will not give out
any sooner than will your legs.
The reason you pant is this: You
have always used just as small a por-
ton of your lungs as possible. You
have neglected three-fourths of each
lung; have given it no chance. When
you run you need more breath than
in walking. You call on the unused
parts of your lungs to do the work the
used portion cannot do. They are not
prepared lowing to your neglect OF
them) to answer to this sudden call,
You try to make things easier by
opening your mouth and thus pumping
air into the lungs by a passage which
nature never made for that purpose
The result is that the wretched rem
nant of lung you have been in the
habit of using is sorely ~overtaxed and
cannot do it's work, while the greater
part o: your lungs is not doing any
work at all.
The good athlete must have every
