The greatest danger from la

however, and Chamberlain's Cough

On the morning Of March 81 1914. Il
man of cIcrhly appearance might have
been seen standing at the entrance TO
the dilapidatcd fortress of New Am
sterdam with i shcaf OF official papers
in his hand 1t WAS not an inviting
prospect which confronted the observer
that raw spring morning, for the
roughly built wooden houses scattered
about the fort looked sadly weather
beaten. and the struggling. i'll made
roads and paths which served as streets
were Uttered with refuse and rubbish
of every sort and ankle deep i'm mud.
The man at the fort did not. how
ever. waste much time in gazing at
these OBSCURE ging surroundings. They
were familiar to him in every dreary
detail. for Cormelis Van Tieuhovcn had
been secretary of the council at New
Amsterdam for many years, and If he
had ever been disturbed by the pre-
vailing Indebtedness of the town IL
had long since ceased 10 afford him
the slightest concern. Slowly turning
his back TO the view. he tackled one OF
his official documents 10 the wall Of
the fort and then. swinging about and
ground 10 a convenient tree. affixed an
other paper.
Van Tienhovens handwriting was
easily read. Indeed. good penmanship
was the only qualification lac had ever
displayed for his office. and that virtue
had wholly failed to cndear him to the
popuIace. who hated the very sight OF
his clerical fist. The particular notice
he had transcribed that morning. how

The local fans are of the opinion that

that all the league umpires rule on
balls and strikes from behind the

Local bugs are delighted with the To-

All the regulars field their positions
nicely and every man on the team is a

The locals leave tomorrow morning
open the league season that afternoon.
Manager Jessup will place his strongest
lineup against the Buckeyes and he
confidently expects that his Quakers
will annex at least two out OF the three
games which will be played at Van

upon to twirl the opener. The big
fellow is in grand form and Hunts out

When Jimmy Cameron stepped TO
the plate yesterday for the first time.
the fans gave him a rousing reception.
Jim got one cOrking double and was

three bases. He did not have a chance
in the field, but there is not the slight
est doubt that he will be able to take
care of that territory.
Nat Fleming showed himself TO still

TY GAME-MANAGER JESSUP
PLAYS HIS FIRST.

Much has been said Of the smuggling
material Manager Jessup has gathered
about him. Owing to the hitless won
ders of last year. the fans, when theg
heard rumors to the effect that the To-
cal uniforms were now inhabited by
manufacturers of base hits, crossed
their fingers and looked like residents
of Missouri. Yesterday they went to
Athletic park to verify the rumOrs re-
ferred to. There was great rejoicing
and much mouth noise when it was
seen that the glad tidings were but
too true. Our demon athletes man
gled fae Dayton ShilOhs in a hail storm
of singles, two baggers. triples and
home runs, Looping under the wire an
easy 9 to ) winner.
The game was beauty 10 watch, the
hitting being good and some sensation
al fielding stunts were pulled off by
both teams. Jim Cameron was rob
bed of a sure three bagger by a mar
velOus catch of MOrganthaler in right
center. c. Fieldhaus robbed BAN
braugh of a single by picking a liner
off his shoe strings. For the locals
Cap Parker brought the fans up yelling
by the clever capture of line drive
while Johnny Bambraugh pulled off
some fancy plays. Talking about
Bambraugh. that midget came pretty
nearly being the whole show. In the
second inning he drove in the first To-
cal run with a two Dagger and in the
eighth he hit down the left field foul
line for a home run, the ball going
nearly to the club house Johnny was
nearly home when the ball stopped
rolling. Baumann led the locals in
stick work, making three hits, one a
triple. out of four times up. Cap
Parker found his batting eye and
damned out a single and a smoky
double out of four times up. Manager
Jessup caught his first game Of the
season and showed that he is still the
clever backstop as of yOre. His work
on the bases was a feature.
Conner started in to pitch for the 10
calls He had good speed and curves
but lacked control. In the fourth, aft

The RInq FINGER,

To the question often asked why the

Some say because the left hand is
much less used than the right. ami
therefore the ring is less liable to ,5et
