Gle Indulgence in the great national
game resulted in a painful experience
to Clifford Weaver, manager Of the
wall paper department of the Harmed

Thursday evening. In the fifth inning
of the baseball game between two
picked teams from the employees of
the store, Mr.. Weaver was on second
base, and when the ball was delivered
to the catcher, he made a daring at
tempt to steal third. He was detected
TOO soon, however, and the ball was
whipped down to the third sacker. Mr..
Weaver then turned toward second,
and he struck his ankle on an iron post
at that station, breaking a small bone
On one side and tearing the hgaments
on the other.

Hen Andrews wants us to say that
his wife has left him again, and that
he don't want any of the business
