day began a busy week for local
book dealers, and they are having
their hands full in supplying the lit
tie ones with the necessary text books
for the coming session. Extra forces
were put on Monday but even these
were scarcely enough to attend to
the wants OF the boys and girls that
crowded the stores from morning till
night. All received careful attention
however. and by the ned of tho week
the rush is expected TO be over.
The enrolment is much larger this
year than ever before, although ex-
act figures can not be obtained for
some time. Considerable increase
over last years sales are reported by
the booksellers, one store estimating
the increase at more than fifteen per
cent.

game here with the Cincinnati Reds.
September IA.
The favorite impression made by
Hoblitzell on his first appearance III
the Queen City will be noted in the
following reference made to his work
in the Enquirer OF Sunday:
NO tremendous assemblages ap-
peared to view the Red recruits. Hob
litzell and Bescher who were MAX
ing their first appearance of the big
circuit. In fact, the crowd was very
small for fine Saturday, but made
up In enthusiasm what II lacked In
numbers. The work of the newest
athletes was kcenly observed, and
met with practically unanimous ap-
proval. Both boys hit the ball very
hard. Hobby got a single, and a
base on balls. and only fine play
by Morris prevented him from being
credited with two hits Instead of one.
This youngster, who bats with much
confidence. In the field he had little
TO do, but his handling OF thrown
balls was satisfactory. He did MT
start on n couple of hits that shot
through TO his right, but that was
propbaby due to the sun. which is
very bad for the first bascmen on
these grounds at this time OF the
year. He made a pretty catch OF a
difficult liner off TO his left. Hobby
is fast man. young, ambitious, and
of good habits. He VIII cover lot
of ground at first base. when he gets
use to the position. and the fact that
no is left-hand hitter is greatly in
his favor"
Hobby" on Saturday signed up his
contract with the Reds and is now a
full fledged member Of the team.
