BLOOMER GIRLS ID
 PLAY IN GLOBE
Female Baseball Aggrega- tion Scheduled for
 Next Month

Now let the baseball fans sit up and take squint at the surroundings.
 Why?
 Because the Boston Bloomer Girls are coming to Globe.
 They are coming iwth the firm and fixed determination of showing the To. cal ball players few things about how the national pastime should be dished up, and whether or not they succeed in fulfilling this part of the contract, the game will probably be a big drawing card.
 The manager of the Bloomer girls has written to Globe asking for a date during the first week in December. He was informed that this arrangement would be entirely suitable and as the result, the announcement of the exact date of the game is being awaited.
 The Bloomer Girls team is not made up of men in wigs and bloomers-that is, not entirely, as it is said that only two men have places on the team.
 The feminine outfit visited Globe a year ago and made big hit, so leave it to the male fans in particular to be on deck when the team pays it's second visit to this city.

LEARN TO KILL DOGFISH
AND REAP A FORTUNE
Britain Will Pay Big Sum to
Exterminate Plague

Consul Joseph G. Stephens of Ply
mouth makes the following report on
the difficulty of coping with the dog
fish on the coast of Great Britain:
Dogfsh continues to infest the south
ern and western fisheries in increasing
numbers and do much damage No
remedy has been found. and it is EVIL
dent that the fisheries are surely and
rapidly being depleted by their activity
While there is a considerable con-
sumption of dogfish in Plymouth and
other large places in England it is not
at all in proportion to the number of
fish. They have been sold for Is GA
cents) per score, and later they had
to be given away for fertilizer.
While the dogfish are in request the
fishermen can supply as much as the
buyers can possibly handle, but as the
big fishing plants on the east coast
commence 10 operate there is not suf-
ficient market for them at renumera-
tive prices. Dogfsh have been. sold up
to Is. Cd. (42 cents) and lower than
Cd. (12 cents) per score, but the latter
price will mot pay for the labor of
catching. The person who can devise
way of riding the waters of this
plague without injury to the fisheries
will confer a great boom to the indus
try.

SPAIN WELCOMES
LOWER wine DUTY
Commercial Treaty Campaign
With America Follows Reduc=
ton of ImpOst

MADRID, Spain. April 1S.-The
reduction in the American duty on
Spanish sparkling wines was enthu-
siastically welcomed by the Spanish
press and has been followed by
campaign in favor of a commercial
treaty between the United States and
Spain on the basis OF a reduction of
duty on Spanish ordinary sweet wines
in return for lower Spanish duties on
American tobacco. cotton, machinery
and cereals.
The production of common and sweet
wines, as opposed to sparkling. in
Spain, is very large, and it is believed
that the United States offers an excel
lent market for the sale OF these goods.
II is felt that there is much room for
an expansion of Spain's trade with the
United States and that the introduc-
ton of Spanish wines would be fol-
lowed ultimately by increased business
in other directions.

GRAVE DIGGING PUT
OFF FOR HAYMAKING
How the Sexton Convinced the
Wailing Widow

The Rev. P. III. Ditchfield in a paper
in the April Cornhill on The Mind of
the Rustic" has some amusing things
to tell concerning one John Holt,
squire's bailiff, who held also the Offices
OF overseer. haywa-den and parish clerk
and sexton. After a very young clergy
man came to the parish John did just.
and only just, what he liked:
"A leading dissenter had died and his
wife had named a day to the vicar for
the funeral. One fine day in July the
funeral procession duly arrived and the
vicar advanced in full canonicals to
meet the corpse at the churchyard gate.
To his amaze ment, the widow advanced
toward him in a perfect fury, shaking
her fist in his face and shouting: DO
you call this religion? Where's his
widow Where's his gravie (grave).
tell you?' The vicar then FOR the first
time perceived that John, the clerk, was
missing and that no grave had been
prepared. Upon inquiry he was told
ina John was haymaking in the park
A messenger was dispatched to bring
him. and shortly John appeared limp
ing along with a prong in his hand.
John advanced with perfect COM
posure, and when the vicar began to
say This is very disgraceful. John.
ne repied: GU bide q bit. l see what
IL be. You let me talk to she. She
knows me and L knows She:
Then, addressing the widow he pro-
ceeded: Now. L tell We what ii be: you
listen TO reason. Now, we've had rain,
rain, rain; and now we've got a fine
day we must make our hay. Now. your
corpsey. he won't hurt. Comes g wet
day. 'taint no odds to you; you bring
your umbrellas; but our hay'ld spile.
Now you take he home and listen to
reason. Your old man he'd listen'd TO
reason. Hays a thing as can't only be
made when tbs fine. 'Taint no odds to
corpseys whether 'tis wet or dry"
So entirely was the woman convinced
by the irresistible logic of Johns argu-
ment that she was completely subdued
and If the vicar had not insisted upon
some or the hay makers being called in
to dig the grave the funeral would have
turned home again.
