 In this contest Paige won his first game since his addition to the local squadron after having lost four con- secutive contests. The two boots made by his teammates did not result ser iously, and outside of that he receiv- ed good support, the team tightening up in pinches. This time the visitors swarmed around the sacks but of no use, they were doomed to swallow eggs. George Bones men on the other hand got in a few of their clouts in the batch and won out, Sher- wood and Havel getting hits for extra bases. Captain Zacher as usual ran off pretty catch and caught the pill in the final inning after hard run. Jerry Cornell did the backstop work without hitch and the visitors did not attempt to steal bags. He stopped a foul tip with his wind pipe and was forced to rest for a short while, after which he returned to the game again.
 In the fourth inning with one down, Blondy Zacher laced out single to left garden. Kid Sherwood then took a crash at the pill He had been rob bed of a two-bagger before, but would not tolerate 1t this time. He walloped the pill hard driving 1t far out to the right field fence scoring zacher and getting to second himself. simmons perambulated to first on four balls and Reichman flied out to Soffel. With two out Eddie Havel ap- preached the plate and decided that another run or two would not look so bad. He accordingly sent out a slashing three bagger in the vicinity of the center field and cleared the bases making the locals runs rise to three The summary:

Ages of Sea Fighters.

While Rear Admiral Robley ID. Evans

may return as placidly as it went by

A Protest Against Costly Flummery.

The dying request of United States
Senator Stephen r. Mallory of Florida
that his funeral should be private is to
be respected.
There will be no junket of senators
and representatives and no resulting bills
to be paid out of the federal treasury.
Without ostentation, the body of the
dead senator will be quietly escorted to
its last resting place by q few of those
who were his intimates, and after life's
ftful fever he will sleep as well as if
public business had been interrupted
for his obsequies.
There has been for many years in pri-
vate life tendency toward simplicity at
funerals. Senator Mallory showed ster-
ling common sense and patriotism in re-
questing that his funeral should be CON
Quoted in a manner that would not cause
embarrassment to the nation by delay
ing the progress of business in the law
making branch of the government If
the example set in his case were to be
followed in the future the dignity of the
Senate would not decrease, but the coun-
try would gain.
Death is as natural as life There is
no more reason why the wheels of legis-
lation should stand still when a senator
dies than when he marrieS or when he
is confined to the house with a cold
The tlummery of sending committees of
the Senate and the House to funerals
having been discountenanced, the next
thing which should be done is to dis
card the hummery of adjourning
the houses ON account of the death of a
member and the fiummery of giving up
day to speeches and resolutions when
ever a member dies.
The obituary eloquence of Congress is
cold Journalism. 1t has become a joke.
and its abolition would show more re-
speet for the dead than its continuance.
When for any reason a true worshiper
finds it necessary to leave church he
strives to go out without disturbing the
congregation. Senator Mallorys in
junction regarding his funeral was con-
ceived in a similar spirit. 1t was ex-
cellent in taste, in judgment and in com
mon sense,
