double play, spelling the Lakeviews' chances for further scoring
 The Lafayettes appeared in their new uniforms Saturday and celebrated the occasion by defeating the Liberty Stars 90. This team think they have it on any 11-year-old nine in town, and any one disputing that claim can have side Park. Answer through the Far mer.
 The fielding Of Murphy and the pitching of Slocum featured for the Island Brooks in a game between that Brooklawn, which the former won, 5-4.
 Bridgeport High lost at New Haven, Saturday morning. 11-2. The New Ravens got to Malcolm, the local pitcher, in grand style, which with a number of errors gave them the game. This makes Bridgeport and New Ha- ven tied for first place, with two more games to play. In the playing list is a game with Middletown in that city. Middletown on her former visit here lost Al. They have a very good team and will probably stick it on the locals.
 The strong Shelton team of New Haven were given & beating at the Flats yesterday by the CIovers. the final score being 9-S. The batting of the local boys really won the game. Spectacular plays featured on both sides.

CAPT. PHELAN'S BATTING AVERAGE
 STILL SHRINKING
At Present Rate it Won't be Long Before
 He Will be in Ont of Sight Class.

George Bannon increased his batting average somewhat last week and is now the actual leader of the Orators with the percentage of 1920, ..01S better than last week. We still have two others in the select class, Pollard and Romer. Frank Hilt is on the steady climb and with a few more games will be after the others. Hi Ladd is also leaning up against them in his former style. Captain Phelan fell off during the three games from .103 to .oss. Rather nifty for the captain and first sacker.

Stanage started at once to set the American league afire, and Stall ings almost wept with rage.

-'Take her, roared Dingaan. take her and begone. for to the Zulus she and Noie, the witch, bring naught but ill.''
 But one of the Council cried:
 "The InkoSazana cannot be sent away with these magicians unless it is her will to go."
 Then the little men nodded to Noie. and Noie whispered in the ear of Ra- chel.
 Rachel listened and answered "Whither thou goest, Noie. thither I go with thee. who seek my Spirit"
 So Noie took Rachel by the hand and led her from the Counc1l-plasce or the King. and as she went. followed by the Ghost-priestS and their escort. for the last time all the Councillors rose up and gave to her the royal salute. Only Dingaan sat upon the ground and beat it with his fists in fury.
 Thus did the Inkosazana-y-Zoolad de part from the Great Place of the King of the Zulus. and Mopo. the son of Makedama. shading his eyes with his hand watched her go from between his withered fingers.

The mysterious healing power of the Psychopathic Doctors of this city, which enables them to cure hopeless anvalids when doctors, drugs and all ether means have failed, has aroused widespread wonder and comment in all circles, physicians and scientists abeing as much in the dark for an eN- planation as those outside the medical profession
 Over four hundred persons in this city, suffering from almost every dis ease known, have received treatment from their hands. Many who had given up all hope of ever seeing well day again are now in the enjoyment of perfect health as this method has long passed the experimental stage The results obtained>are the quickest. safest, most permanent and lasting that can be produced by any system of healing known to the world
 They number among their cured pa tients many of our wealthy, educated and refined citizens, who came to them simply because they found no help elsewhere. Hundreds have re ceived treatment from their hands, many of whom are forced to admit that the Psychopathics' method of healing is simply marvellous in its re- suits.
 The only claim any doctor makes for his drugs is to sooth' or excite. They all agree that the blood and na- rure alone can produce the perfect cure of any disease. The Psycho- patf1ics are natural headers. Every re- suit obtained by them is g. natural re- suit. When they make you see. you cant help but See. When they make you hear you can't help but hear. When they remove your pains and stiffness, you can't help but use your limbs as nature intended you should.

"The Red Mill"

Extravagant praise is generally sus-
picious, but in announcing The Red
Mill" at the Grand this evening the
management has scarcely done the
play justice. 1t has already demon
strated its worth and lasting power by
being the only musical play that re-
manned throughout the entire season
at any of the New York Broadway
theatres. where it was given ccntinu-
ously and played to the largest gross
receipts ever known at the Kicker
booker Theatre, and was followed by
engagements of three months each in
Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, and the
principal cities. 1.-THE Red Milf is by
Henry Blossom and Victor Herbert,
whose earlier success, Mile Modesto"
easily proclaims them the peer of all
musical composers.
The music is by Victor Herbert, far
and away the best OF the composers
of light music in this country; the
book is by Mr.. Blossom, who has writ
ten clever dialogue in the past, and
the company engaged is. from all ac-
counts, said to be mighty good one.

The Good Census.

Ability to gather information for the.
census may be gagged by compet-
tive examination, but census to be-
valuable should be something more
than mass Of statistics. Correctness
is essential, more especially correct
ness combined with completeness in
data which will be pat when it reaches
the public.
Much of the information over which
the census bureau spends time is of
little value to the public generally. 1t
may serve good turn for specialists.
The striking totals make a nine days
wonder in the newspapers that have
room to spread them. Discrimination
should be exercised by the census,
makers, so that subjects of the great
est use to the greatest number shall
be studied carefully and finally pre-
sented in simple form. The making
Of a good census is work for experts,
but the understanding of it should be
within the range of the average mind.

A Swiss professor with time on bis

Warships Lacking Officers.

An article in current magazine
contains the statement, "There is not
single ship in the feet today which
has her complement of officers to fight
to the best advantage" This is not a
muck raker's loose talk, but the sane
language of man who knows his
subject, Rear Admiral Robley D.
Evans. Ships have been built faster
than officers could be trained. That is
the situation. Germany has double
the number of officers that we have
for practically the same service.
1t requires continuous outlay of
money to educate and support a corps
OF officers. An appropriation for a
new ship is supposed to end the out
lay for that ship: Congress musters
courage to authorize a temporary ex-
penditure, but is reluctant to increase
expenditures of a permanent nature.
Yet the warships are of no use without
officers. Money put into them is
wasted if they are not to be properly
oficered when called into action.
