Notes of the Game.

The Rourkes made six errors, but as luck
would have II they were not very ex-
pensive.
Kane ran Welch a close second on reach
Ing first. He hit the ball twice and was
hit by the ball twice.
Spencer collided with Pendry in trying
to steal second, Spencer was out, but both
came out OF the heap limplng,
WEIGH was passed four times and hit
once, The only time he got a good chance
at the ball he clouted 1t for a single.
Galgano was mad and wild. The farther
the game went the madden he got. He
passed eight and hit three and was hit
for thirteen safe ones.
Pendry ran from first ball all the way
home on a single in the seventh inning.
He had walked and when WEIGH hit to
right for a single he scored.
Galgano went around swapping at every
body like one OF those swapping turtles.
Jack Haskell seemed especially to be his
bette noir, but Jack refused to be bothered
by his swapping.

way has greatly increased the profits of illicit distilling with the result that the activities of the internal revenue bureau at this time are largely directed toward the mountain sections of these three states.
 During the year 1908 there were 11S0 H. licit stills destroyed; in 1907 there were 113e, and In 1906 there were 1876, but the returns for the nine months of the pres ent fiscal year show a decided increase in the number destroyed, the number so far reported this year being 1017, with the probability that by July 1 that number will have been increased to approximately 1900
 The section of the south where there is the most activity among the so-calied
 moonshiners," embraces the Atlanta dis trict, where, 1t is reported, 120 stills were seized and destroyed during the month of December last The Asheville, N. C., dis trict is another that has to be constantly looked after as does that of the Colum- bia s. C., and of Louisville.
 The records of the last eight years show that the casualties to officers and men employed in raiding was only Il, four of the raiders having been killed.
 During the same time about 670o persons were arrested and a large proportion of them sentenced to prison. Since July 1 there has been only one casualty, that of Deputy Maf. - I. C. Mullins of Ken lucky. who was h. turing the raiding expedition on Christmas Day, 1908.

SOMETHING MAY DROP
 IN HUNDLEY CASE TODAY
By WAITER SON sTEALEY.

Most of the gossip tonight is based upon the possibility that the President told the senators that he could not appoint a democrat and put up to them the qual- ifieations of the several republicans whc have been mentioned for the place. One story out of some 57 varieties was to the effect that the senators were inclined to lean toward O. D. Street, if it had come down to the question of a republican judge. Street is the organization candi- date. However, this is all gossip, and only given for what 1t is worth.
 It is undoubtedly true, however, that if the senators would indorse Street he could probably get the appointment. as he is satisfactory to several of the House members and has the support of the or ganization.
 The supporters of Smith, Street and Peasants all profess to be very well sat isfed over the outlook. The organization is very confident that Pleasants will not be appointed. They are fighting him to the last ditch as it was ' ough Pleas ants friends that Judge dundley's con firmation was prevented.
 The status of MT. Smiths case remains unchanged. It Is obvious that he Is fa- vored by the Attorney General and Score tary of State Knox. The President how ever, Is the appointing power, and no ono has yet been able to find out where he stands.

THREE HUNDRED FAMILIES

 GREAT FIRE AT FORT WORTH

Washington, April 4.-Officials of the internal revenue bureau of the treasury department are of the opinion that the prohibition movement which has taken such strong hold of certain sections of the country. particularly in the south. has resulted In increasing the number of violations of internal revenue laws in the distillation of illicit whisky.
 The records up to the first of last year did not show any very marked increase in the number of Illicit distilleries de- stroyed or in the number of arrests made, but recent reports clearly indicate that In many of the southern states, and es- pecially in Alabama, Georgia and North Carolina, there has been greater activity displayed on the part of the mountain men, who always have been troublesome to the revenue agents, than in many years. This is accounted for by the fact that the legislatures of these three states have enacted laws prohibiting distillerfes from operating within their borders.
 In Alabama the law went into effect on July l. 1908; in Georgia on January l, 1908; and In North Carolina January l, 1909. Very many of the legitimate distil- leries have moved their plants to Florida and other border states, where the inhibi- tion does not exist. The fact that whisky Is more difficult to obtain in legitimate

 It was believed that the deposed Presi- dent would remain abroad, but now that he Is actually on board a steamer bound in the direction of Venezuela, whether or not he will actually come to La Guayra, the greatest speculation prevails as to his real intentions It is hardly thougnt Castro will proceed beyond Port Of spain Trinidad, because there is certainty or imprisonment should he debark here. and probably death.

 Sampson and his wife lived at the Allyn homestead, where Frank P. Allyn, father of Mrs. Sampson, and his two sons, Carl Allyn and Frank Allyn, with Harry Samp- son, were engaged in farming.
 Important testimony Is anticipated from Mrs Frank Allyn the mother. She saw the letter which was subsequently, de- stroyed.

 It has been clearly indicated that the defense will endeavor to show that Mrs. Sampson was upstairs when the killing was committed. The defendant has reso- lutely maintained her innocence.

GENERAL BOOTH
 IS 80 YEARS OLD

New York, April 4.-Gen. William Booth. whose S0th birthday is to be celebrated throughout the world next Saturday, has replied to the scores of congrstulatory cabegrams already received from state governors, mayors of leading American cities, and other men of prominence with message to tho American people The message was given out at the American headquarters of the Salvation Army here today and Is as follows:
 After spending 80 years in this world with almost countless opportunities for observing the purposes for which men generally live and the disappointments they so commonly suffer, it seems reason able that should have formed some opin- ion as to the course they ought to fol- low If they are to have any real success.
 "So on my s0th birthday. I tell the Americans this: If they will seek the honor of God, the reign of righteousness. the welfare of the friendless poor, the riches that endure forever with the same self-sacrificing avidity with which they seek the wealth and pleasures of this world, they will have a good chance of finding that life of satisfaction which now so often eludes them, and of building up pattern nation for the world.
 WILLIAM BOOTH, General
