WHITE sox ARE TRIMMED
Switzer Went AerOplaning,
While Hart Pitches Great
Ball, and White SOx Are
Trampled to Mush.

The Swimmers widened the margin
between their lofty position and the
humble one occupied by the Farmers
at the tail-end of the procession, but it
required 10 strenuous innings before the
trick was accomplished. Hart's great
pitching and Switzer's aeroplaning feat
were the prime reasons for the downfall
of the White Sox at the hands of the
Highlanders. The Parkers Jared very
badlyin their brush with the Grays, who
smothered them by score of II to A..
There were no changes in the positions
of the clubs.

Farmers Put Up Great Battle,

"Milt" Disney had an off day last
Saturday when he went up against
"Farmer" Offutt and his grangers. The
lads who till the soil were out for blood,
and as it was the last game scheduled
for the home premises they were over
anxious to put beating to the visitors:
Disney lasted three innings and was re-
placed by Tribull, who was also relieved
in the ninth by Gilley. To a wonderful
catch made by Tribull in the tenth, the
Swimmers owe their victory. The winn-
ing run was made by Cunningham,
whose single was followed by Jarosik' 8
triple. The Farmers had Nelson hold
on the Swimmers in the third bout, but
they broke it, with honors even. 1t was
a see.saw battle from this point until
the deciding run was made. The teams
We'd with each other in the error column.

Look to Your Drainage.

The following is taken from recent
resume of bulletin of the State Board
OF Health
''The Health Officers Bulletin for May, /,
just issued, reminds health officers that
typhoid fever may be expected to begin
its regular summer rise about this time.
The bulk of the summer typhoid, it is
stated, is still due in Maryland in the
majority of instances to polluted water.
"Prompt action on the part of the
health officers will prevent q large
amount of unnecessary sickness and
deaths, and the investigation of all pub.
lie water supplies and as many private
supplies as possible during the early
summer months is recommended"
Many persons buying suburban prop
erty think they have secured good and
sanitary drainage, when in reality the
80 called 'ssystems" in their homes are
but traps to breed disease. We offer you
system which has received the approval
of the best sanitary engineers and the
health authorities. 1t is an irrigation
plant that can be used on any suburban
lot that is as much as $50 feet deep, and
will cost only $40 and upward.
Consultations will cost nothing and
estimates will be cheerfully furnished.

Parkers Are Set Down Hard.

The Grays saved up all their old
grudges and hand them in q bunch to
McFee's Parkers last Saturday after
noon. The dose was a bitter one and
made wrinkles in the face as it was
was crammed down their esophagi.
Elmer Baus, like the great Disney, met
his Waterloo, receiving the worst drub-
bing of his life. With the bases full on
three separate occasions Argabright

Nothing in the way of scoring was
again accomplished until the sixth in
ming, when Switzer hit Bruff. Benny"
stole second and came home when Spen-
Ger singled to center and took third on
the throw-in; Parks chopped to Engle-
brecht, who threw "Honus'' out at the
dish; Switzer hit Hight; Donaldson
pushed one over into right scoring
Parks; Hight crossed over the third lap
on Englebrecht's wild dab on "Addie's'
throw to catch Hight mapping. Donald
son Tailed on a wild pitch.
Kuszmaul opened Waverly's half of
the sixth with a single over short, but
was thrown out to J .Grason; Mercer put
clean one over short and scored when
the ball, which had been, thrown to catch
him at third, bounded off his back into
the crowd; Addison registered when
Clancy chopped in front Iof the dish,
Hart making a .miscue, being too anx-
ious to make the.plays
In the eighth the Highlanders went
for Switzer in a businesslike way and
rolled up four additional runs. Coupled
with his unsteadiness and the knocking
he was subjected to he was pretty groggy
when the round ended.
The White Sox got to Hart for three
safeties in the eighth, netting them one
run. The game opened auspiciously in
the ninth with the prospect of additions
to Towson's score. but Umpire Roche
called the game back to the eighth in

Three.Finoered Jack.

This story. is being told around
Washington on Senator Curtis: Sena-
tor Curtis came upon two of his fell
low members of the upper house play
ing chess, and offered to bet money
on either one of them winning or
losing the games. He was willing to
bet any old way. Neither had the
nerve to wager against the other or
for himself.
"You fellows said the senator
from Kansas, remind me of man in
my state who was always anxious to
bet on his game of checkers. Only
you remind me of the one time when
he backed down.
"He was about to play a game for
SO with a fellow called 'Three-fin-
'gered Jack Suddenly one of his
friends exclaimed:
/. Don't bet, Charlie. Don't you
know that fellow wore of two fingers
playing checkers? That's why he's
called Three. Fingered Jack."'
I. That settled it. The bet was never
made. A man who had worn off two
fingers by brushing them up and down
the checker board was too much for
my friend. kansas City Journal.

Fearing Uric Acid, Victim Had Dieted

scribed a proper diet in detail and Bus
hey, Thoroughly alarmed, agreed to live
on it. For a month he adhered rigidly
to the list of permissible food, but the
knee still bothered him, and finally he
went to doctor. "This knee has been

said Busbey. "and the treatment ap-

the knee, what do you think is wrong
with you?" "Why, uric acid" replied
Busbey. Uric acid nothing. You've
sprained your knee severely, that's

Lazy Men Power Generators.

Learned Justice Belts of Kingston,
N. Y, says: Lazy men have a right
to live" Our lazy men are our most
potent. History shows that as a rule,
with rules exceptions, our greatest
men had either indolent or shiftless
fathers, as fathers of Shakespeare,
Lincoln, Napoleon, Bismarck and other
worthless indicate. On the other hand,
great mems children are few and
far between. Power in a lazy man is
accommodating, as in coiled spring,
but the great man has little or nothing
left for offspring.-New York Times.

PREcEDENcESA SACRED THING.
svhsrsln Assistant Secretary o. state
Adss 10 Friend Of Washington
Hostssses.

A Washington correspondent says
tnat Assistant Secretary of State
Adee has certain social functions that
are not included in his official du.
ties. but that are rated at a high
value by hostesses who wish to avoid
the faux pas that are reckoned among
the objectionable sins. Mr.. Adee has
devoted much time to a study of pre-.
cedence. Presumably such reconcile
learning is necessary to him in his
duties, and being good.natured man
ne places it freely at the service of
MS friends. who are numerous. The
lady who wishes to give function
submits the names of her guests to
Mr. Adee, who obligingly separates
the sheep from the goats and places
each guest in the exact position to
which it has pleased the god of social
things to call him. A Washington cor.
respondent says:
Mr. Adee knows more about rank
and precedence than Uncle Joe Can
non does about the rules of the house.
ana II you are not thoroughly posted
IN the tntricacies of official prece.
dence you would best restrict your
guest list to plain individuals who

senator at your right hand and a jus.
tee OF the supreme court at your left.
Or 1t would be just as bad if you
were to give the place of honor to a
reverend jurist, with a foreign min.
lister present"
The same correspondent regrets
chat dinner-giving in Washington is
not what 1t should be. 1t is "a sad,
stilted proceeding. There is but one
caterer here. and he has charge of
most of these functions. Naturally,
they become more or less stereotyped
IN character. A popular diner-out is
confronted evening after evening with
the same cut-and-dried fare. 1t is

| The Seattle Star, of May 18,
1907, had an article regarding the
Alaska Petroleum & Coal company,
Clarke Davis company. This
article stated that the men prOmi-
nent to the company. together with
others interested in similar enter
prises, had been endeavoring to
secure the passage of an act of con-
gress which would enable their
corporations to get possession of
the coal lands. All possible in
fluence," said the Star, has been
brought to bear in Washington.
Among those who went from Seat
tie to Washington on this mission
was Dick Ryan" Now notice:
On the files of the interior depart
ment appears letter of introduce
ton from Ballinger to Secretary of
the Interior Garfield, under date
of March 4, 1908. introducing
Richard S. Ryan, of Alaska, -
and saying Mr.. Ryan would
doubtless give" Mr. Garfield
valuable information. Doubt
less he could, but it was not the
kind of information Oh which Mr.
Garfield was accustomed to act.
This disposes of the question of
Ballinger's single employment by
one claimant, SO innocently stated
by President Taft. Out of over a
possible thousand lawyers in Seat
tie, Ballinger seems to have had
monopoly of syndicated Alaska
coal clients. And who shall say
that these clients were altogether
lacking in sagacity?
