INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE
 GAMES TOMORROW

Two Industrial League games will be I.lsyed tomorrow afternoon at New field Park, the opener, which no doubt
 will prove O. scorcher, being between the Yosts, at present the league lead CTS. and the Singer teams. Eosts
 beat the Singers by a small score on
 their former encounter. It is believed
 that since the American & British
 team found the angora of the Type
 writers that they will fall victims to
 a number of the other clubs.
 Manager Ed Lynch will trot out
 Frank White. his premier pitcher,
 with George Wilson as his receiving
 nhenom. will essay for the Singers,
 being held up by Irvy Lauhscher. The
 second game will also produce two
 the victories, the Warner Brothers
 and the Cartridge shop clubs. It's
 win or die for either team. The
 Warner battery will be Higgins or
 Bosse, pitchers, with Bud" White, catching. For the Fulminate mixers Thompson and Ennis will twirl and Moran, catch.
 Out on Crane Field. on South and Iranistan avenues. the American & British team, fresh from it's brilliant victory over the Yosts last Saturday will tackle the runners up in the lea
 gue race, the No. Crane team, in an endeavor to place a decided crimp in their pennant aspirations Jaekel and Jamison. the battery in last Sat
 urday's game against the Yosts for A. & B. team will appear again to- morrow, being opposed by Carter, Hammer and Lucia.
 For the lovers of a cool spot with shade trees liring the side lines Sea side Park is the ideal place tomorrow. Here another Industrial league con- test, which means good snappy base ball. will be the stellar attraction. Here. the Bridgeport Brass team, un- der new management will meet up
 with George Ellsworth's ever victor ious crew from the Main Street Crane plant Here, Kid" Mullins and Hur- lev will be Georges battery, while Kellogg and Franx will essay for the LRrasaiaa- \. '.

Of sledge hammers, drills and various
other similar paraphernalia in the filling
Of a cavity four inches square by three
inches deep, into which an ordinary
brick could have been thrust, The cav
ity in question, however, was not in the
tooth of a human being, but in one of
the lower molars of Gunda, the big ele-
plant at the Bronx zoo. When the
pachyderm refused her regular food last
Thursday, and even disdained all sorts
of dainties, the keepers knew that some
thing was radically wrong. That the
trouble was a raging tOOthache was dis
covered through a swelling Of her jaw,
BY means of crowbars and blocks of
wood her mouth was forced open, and
a careful dental examination made. AS
a result. a huge cavity was discovered
which it was at once decided to fill.
Gunda was accordingly bound down to
the floor with great chains and belts,
and her trunk was secured. But Cum
da. seeming to realize her condition,
gave no trouble and after two hours
work the cavity was scraped, cut out
with chisels and hammers. sprayed with
an antiseptic solution and filed with
amalgam. Upon her release Gunda
trumpeted with joy. and when her dent
list visited her later in the day she
showed her gratitude by raising him to
her back with her trunk.
