meantime, stands at the plate ike Ma
poleon stoot at the battle of Waterloo
knowing that the future of his followers
depended on him. Lefebre untwists
himself, the ball leaves his hand, and
after uncurving itself, finally reaches
the plate. Breath draws back, makes g
terrific swipe at the ball, but misses the
same by two feet three and half inches
and the umpire calls strike three ane
out.
The game was over and won by the
Bankers. The poor sponsor and maids
for the Merchants began to cry at such
a disgraceful performance on the part o1
Breath, while the sponsor and maids Of
the green were going hoarse and throw
ing up in the air all they could lay their
hands on. We are informed that three
| months old was seen in the air, thrown
by some one. OF course, we do not
know if this is true; we are giving it to
| to you as we heard it.
Jimmy Lefebre was carried off the
field by his admirers and made to treat
everyone in sight, while poor Charley
Breath received a pink slip from Mana
ger Turner, which means his disappear
ance from the league. He having gone
back to the Epworth League, his ad-
mirers and friends wish him luck in the
new league. Such is the fall of base
ball players.
The Merchants tried another pitcher
in the course of the game, one Mr.. Tay-
lor, but, sad to relate, he was sent to the
tall and went.
Some two years ago telegram was
seen in one of the New Orleans papers
where Pittsburg had signed a new
pitcher by the name of Lefebre. After
that telegram nothing was heard or seen
of the aforementioned pitcher until
this ball player made his appearance as
pitcher for the Bankers.
Geo. r. Rea can handle money we'll,
but his handling of the ball Friday was
not up to his usual standard.
Blanks Turner was heard to say that
the only trouble was that he did not get
the proper support. OF course, this is
not what the public thought.
Gardebled played his usual good
game, and, with more players like him.
the Merchants would not have scored.
John Spotorno and Peter Tudury
played with buttered fingers. Boys,
next time sand-paper your hands.
Outfielder Gordon, as usual, was the
champion hitter, getting six hits out OF
sour times up; percentage of 1900
Boys, if you do not look OUT Gordon
will be signed for higher company.
Drake intended we'll; his playing
showed this, if nothing else.
Webb, unfortunately. did not give us
any of his star slides.
When Carver was brought into the
game shout went up of "professi onal! p"
| When Fricke struck out the tenth
time he was heard to say "Alright;
don't let them go by me-"
Another feature of the game was Leon
Capdepon using his head for the bat.
Boy Perre, O'Malley and Jos. Maui
fray did we'll the little while they played.
Keep your eyes on these stars, and you
will see something.
Both teams claimed the umpire was
crooked and bought out. OF course, we
do not believe that, even if they did do
bum work,

DEATH IN MANY FORMS.
Now Over 5O,OOO Ways of Shunling or
 This Mortal Coil.

In 1890 an ingenious Frenchman calculated that there were l7,000 diff ferent ways of getting off the earth. l estimate that the advance of civili- zation and progress has now increased the figure to 52,500. Statistics prove that 1,70o people die avery year through swallowing things such as pins, needles, studs, buttons, pieces of bone, unmasticated meat and false teeth This is due to hurry,
 In London alone there are 4,O00 street accidents per month. These ac- cidents arise almost entirely from the anxiety of the populace to get there quick. There is no other reason why cabs, motors, bicycles, carts, tram cars, and parcel vans should go dash Ing along, hurling pedestrians to right and left, cutting off arms and legs and filling the hospitals with cas- ualty cases.
 In order to keep up with the de- mand, triumphant science is always devsing fresh apparatus to save time and accelerate speed. Take electric ity. for example. You frequently read in the papers that somebody has died suddenly through touching live wire. Doctors all agree that this Is the quickest death ever invented. And as electricity now plays so large a part in modern life 1t is satisfactory to know that if any of us should happen to come in contact with live wire there is no delay. We are hur- ried off at top speed. It is quicker and more reliable than chloroform--a fact which apparently was not known to the chief actor in this tragedy:
 After chloroforming two cats, [ West Hampstead artist killed himself by the same means" We are not tolf why the deceased artist did 1t. Prob ably it was because this age Is in too great a hurry to patronize art Or | may be that he was so worried by tho danger of being alive and the endless possibilities of being knocked down blown up, or otherwise cut off by vio lence, that he chose safe and eas, way out of it.
 Statistics prove that home is a dan gerous place. Progress and the desir' to equip ourselves with convenience have undermined home with deadl, wires and pipes gas that may explod' and boilers that may burst And agreeable to the demand for hurry houses are now run up by the merr, builder at such speed that they ar capable of coming down with equa celerty. Walls or ceilings may col lapse at a moments notice, chimne pots may crash through the roof, Q the flooring subsido and launch yo hurriedly into the cellar Consc quently 1t Is proved by figures that yo are a lot safer in an express trai than at home Manchester (Eng land) Ideas

COUNTY REVENUE FROM THIS
SOURCE m 1907 MORE THAN
~ 1905.
EIGHT MONTHS SHOW A GAIN
This Year viii Prebably Show .
Loss as Merchants Are Re
dueins Stocks

Notwithstanding the financial de-
preston during the closing months
Of the past year there was an increase
In the county collections from mer.
chants privilege and ad valorem tax-
es. The remarkable feature Of the
situation is that the increase was
made during the last three months OF
the year after the financial shock had
been felt. During 1906 the county's
revenue from the privilege and ad-
valorem taxes on merchants was So
1869, while in 1907 it amounted to
81, 256.02, an increase of $3.50 or about
five per cent.
1t is not expected that the collec-
tons from this source, however, dur.
ing the ensuing year will be as large
as they were last year. The reduc-
tons which many merchants are max
ing in their stocks will not begin to
effect the tax collections for time,
but there are a number Of merchants
who will discontinue business In
fact number who have renewed
their licenses. during the past two
months have so stated to County
Court Clerk Hardin Thomas.
Eight months of 1907 show an In.
crease over the corresponding months
of the previous year, the best in
crease being recorded in February,

ty per cent more than for the same
month of 1906. There was falling
off in the months of January, April,

tons of the year are made ia July
while October and January are rivals
