A GOOD GAME
ALLIE

He who failed to see the ball game
Saturday afternoon between the Allie
and Cement teams and played at the
Fair Grounds in this city, missed a
good game and deal of excitement.
Up to the close of the fourth inning
the game promised to be one of the
best played here this season, the score
then being 8 ITO in favor OF Allie.
There were more banters to bet on
the game than perhaps on any other
game ever played in Chickasha, and
of course the odds were offered on
Allie; but as IL smitten with omnipo-
tent rebuke. in the fifth inning Allie
fell down, or rather Cement woke up,
and such slaughter-eight runs was
the record for that inning and that
put her In the lead SO that Allie never
caught up, the game ending 1S to 8
with Cement the winner.
There we're about two hundred peo.
pie in attendance coming mostly from
the country, from the settlements fur
nishing the respective teams and If
anyone thinks that country folks
know nothing of professional ball,
there is where he is mistaken. In the
grandstand were a number OF ladies',
boosters for Allie, and nothing like
technical error was made or ruling by
the umpire in such emergency but
these young ladies ventured an opin.
ion-and It was apt to be right
Another feature OF this game, and
one which gave added interest to the
spectator. was the intensely expressed
sympathy OF each settlement for its
own team. FIR instance. all the ladies'
in the grandstand were enthusiastic
boosters for Allie. while off in the
amphitheater sat another group, all OF
whom we're ever ready to cheer for
Cement.
At one stage OF the game excitement
grew so intense that relief came only
when two hurley youngsters engaged
in fistlc encounter. The participants

THE TEST OF THE TARIFF.

Everybody knows that the Republic an party promised to revise the tariff previous to the last presidential cam paign. And everybody who has paid the least attention to the numerous newspaper and magazine articles an- ent the subject knows that the tariff bill passed in the House of Repre- sentatiyes last Saturday is not the downward revision that the people demanded and the party promised.
 True, the tariff has been revised" :" but. in direct conflict with the pledg' es of the Republican party, 1t has been revised upward. The schedules Of the Payne bill actually average higher than the schedules of the Ding ley bill, and the Dingley bill sched. ules were progressively high in many cases. uniformly favored the spec lal interests. and were responsible. in the main, for the high and con stantly increasing cost of living in this country.
 The bill has passed the House and there is small hope that in the Senat it will meet defeat. The Senate has ever been the bulwark of the pro- tected interests.
 Neither is 1t probable that Presi- dent Taft will veto the bill. He stat. ed last Friday that he would sign the bill ss it left the conference commit. tee, and although he was not alto gether satisfied with 1t. he considered 1t revision downward on the whole.
 Perhaps President Taft conscien- tIously believes that the tariff is an embodiment of his prediction pledg- es;-but the American people do not. Perhaps the Republican Representa-. tiyes and Senators can justify their course;-but to the country at large the passage of the Payne tariff bill as it now stands Is a base betrayal ot the great mass of the Republican vot' CTS, 1t is another victory for the In terests," another defeat for the peops
 The tariff was the first test of the new administration and if the Senate passes the bill and it is signed by President Taft, it will have proved that our government is again in the hands of the Probationary" element.
 The result will be certain and swift. It must inevitably mean the forming of new political party in the United States. The people will not trust the leadership of national affairs to the Democrats. If 1t proves that the Re publicans have betrayed the people for the thirty pieces of silver offered by the great moneyed powers who subsist and fatten solely through the tariff; then, a new party will be form ed around such men as LaFollette ot Wisconsin. Johnson of Minnesota, Bur kett of Iowa, Beveridge of Indiana and others of the progressive element
 And if the conditions warrant the organization of new party the same conditions will insure it's victory at the polls.
 Can not the "Elder" statesmen ot the Republican party see the hand writing on the wall?

FAMED sH.GING BOYS OF JENA.
Ougrowth of Age of Bacchantes or
Wandering Students.

Hundreds of years ago the streets
OF Jena and other German towns used
to echo to the songs of black-robed
monks, who went from door to door
singing and begging aims. Their ex-
ample was followed by bands of poor
students, known as Bacchantes. These
Bacchantes wandered from one uni
versity 10 another in search of better
instruction or better means of sup
port. Such wandering life was fa-
vored by the customs of times when
people thought it virtue to give free
ly 10 all persons seeking help, but
especially to monks and students.
The Bacchantes had with them
younger travelling scholars known rs
skirmishers, who were to receive in
struction in return for certain services.
The younger skirmisher had to wait
upon his Bacchante, beg, and even
steal for him, and for the most rart
he was very tyrannically used. But
as he was waif without other protec-
tion he had to make the best Of mat
ters.
After the reformation in many

were banded into organized c?loirs,
who received pay from chus ches. but
also were assisted by private sub
scriptions. 1t was their duty 10 sing
not only in the churches, but before
the houses of thoir patrons as we'll.
Thus they ceased o be beSgars. Mar
tin Luther himself as boy had been
one of these singers, and it was !arge-
~ due to his influence that the old
custom Of begging entirely rassel
away. There is a famous l:ctuvo Of
Luther as a singing boy in U.::s~"ach

POINTS OUT DANGER IN EGGS.
Should Be Cooked to Avoid Possibility
Of Infection by Them.

1t has long been known that milk
may be vehicle for the diphtheria
germ, but eggs have not until recently
been suspected of having any part in
the communication of this noisome
malady. A recent number of the Lon
don Lancet contains a startling COM
munlcation from DR.. Sambon, one Of
the professors in the London School
OF tropical Medicine, in which it is
SHOWN that fowls as we'll as birds arc
SUBJECT to diphtheria, and that eggs
o1ten contain virulent germs Of this
disease and may easily be the means
or spreading the disease. The doctor
claims that he has even found active
dlphtheria germs in an egg at his own
breakfast table.
In view of these facts, saws Good
Health. it is apparent that eggs must
be invariably cooked to avod the dan
ger OF infection. Raw eggs are unques-
tionably quite as dangerous as raw
milk, or possibly even more so. The
egg.ls doubtless much more often a
source of serious illness than is gen.
orally supposed. A stale egg or a sick
or infected egg may be the cause of
sudden nausea, vomiting and purging,
the real cause Of which may not be
suspected. Certainly the egg is very
lar from being the safe and innocent
1000 which it has so long enjoyed the
reputation of being. Various species
OF germs have been found inside the
snells which were apparently fresh. It
IS KNOWN that germ may be picked I'D
and included in the egg durinp its
transit along the oviduct of the fowl
ana mat germs may penetrate the egg
after ii is laid.
