SEMIS COMING
STRONG AGAIN
Three Games on Saturday
Card to be Of Usual
Fast Brand
EYES ON THE FREMONT
2 AND THE MADISON GAMES

The Semi Professional games for
Saturday should be of more than
usual interest.
The Peerless speed boys will take
spin to Rockford Park to cross
the sticks with Moore's Pets. Peer
less has undergone some changes
and expect to give Highland a hard
game. Both teams will be handi-
capped as Highland has five and
Peerless four of their players in At
lantic City.
Hall viii shoot them over for High
land and Harkins, the new boy mana
ger for Peerless, will depend on
Croney, while Millken will do the
receiving,
This game will be called at 2.15
o'clock. All players should be on
time.
Madison, full of confidence, will
go to the village to take one from
Newport, If they can. A win for them
and lose for fremont would mix
things up rather close.
ICY" Young will be the man of the
hour for Madison, while Newport is
undecided as it is rumored Stewart
will pitch no more this season. They,
however, hope to make Madison play
as they never played before.
fremont will cross the bridge to
play the new Landlith team for the
first time. Those imported Bridgers
are playing a fast game and Bill Carr
is pitching as he never pitched be-
fore.
Hastings is furnishing the people
of Landlith last ball, but the crowds
are small. Saturday, however, is ex-
pected to be a record breaker for the
team.

TELEGRAPH FRANKS ABOLISHED

Persons who have been fortunate
enough TO be possessors of telegraph
franks must now join the great army
of the common people who have to pay
for their messages.
From now on the use of the tele'
graph frank will not be permitted by
law except by employees of the COM
panies. This new rule is only one OF
number of very similar restrictions
which went into effect as parts Of an
amendment to the Interstate Commerce
Law passed by Congress last June, but
which did not receive much attention
at the time.
In addition to the abolition OF the
franks the amendment provides for
the publication of all telegraphic rate
by the companies, and although the
companies will be permitted to establish
rates for night and day, for boards of
trade and other lines of special business,
all tariffs. when made, will be subject
to revision by the Interstate Commerce
Commission.

The State convention of both parties

Central Committees. There conven-

dates aud elected members of the vari-
ous county committees. Section 90 Of
Primary Election law says:

Senate and Assembly nominated by
each political party at such primary

litical party whose term of Office ex-
tends beyond the first Monday in jan

CENSUS STATISTICS
Bureau to Issue Series of State Bulletins
Next january

Census Director Durand has an
nounced that the Census Bureau will
begin about January next the issuance
from time to time of series of bulletins
each giving certain population statistics
for single State and it's subdivisions.
The form of these bulletins. which will
later be bound up to constitute regular
census volumes. marks very distinct
departure from the method of pub
fishing census statistics ten years ago.
1t is the one step in the carrying out of
Director Durand's aim to simplify and
make more accessible the census data,
so that they can be readily used, not
merely by expert students and statisti-
clans, but by the average citizen. The
Directors statement says:
"In the reports of the previous Gen.
sus practically all the information was
arranged with a view TO facilitating
comparisons between different local..
ties with respect to given subject,
and not with view to enabling the
people OF a given locality to ascertain
readily all the facts with regard to that
locality"

EVIDENCE OF AWFUL CRIME
Cruesome Tragedy in the Bottom of
5O-Foot Shaft Near Phoebe

Cruesome Tragedy in the Bottom of
5O-Foot Shaft Near Phoebe
A tragedy, enacted somewhere with.
in the confines of this district, is the
mute story told by three skeletons un.
earthei in the bottom of a 50.foot shaft
ON the property of the California Phoebe
Mining Company by William Wheatley
and his son. Eben Wheatley, last Sat-
urday, says the Pioche Record.
One of the skeletons is that OF man; ;
another that of woman; while the
third is that of a dog; whom the per-
petrators of the deed probably threw
into the shaft to cover mp the last trace
of a double crime. On top OF these
gruesome remains were piled several
feet of large rocks and boulders which
give unmistakable evidence that the
victims were murdered in cold blood.
The bones were badly rotted, but the
skull of the woman, containing an ugly
fracture just above where one OF the
ears should be, was exceedingly well
nreseryed. The man 9 skull was broken
into several pieces. Nothing was left
in the way of Identification, so com
pletely did the murderers Plan and
execute the horrible deed. So it Is
probable that it will never be known
who the persons were whose bodies
have reposed in the shaft undiscovered
for wears, and it is equally certain that
the names Of their executioners Will
never come to light.
The shaft is located in lonely guich
about so yards below the main works
of the California Phoebe mine.

HAT PIN OF SEALING WAX

wonderfully pretty hat pins can be

taken and a knob formed on It of red
sealing wax, which has been found to
make the best foundation. When the
knob has become thoroughly hard it
is covered with as thick a layer of
wax as desired. according to the size
that is preferred for the hat pin. this
layer being. of course. the color of
the hat for which the pin is intended.
Round. square. fiat, oblong and. in
fact. all sizes and shapes Imaginable
are to be seen in the fashionable hat
pins of the moment. so that the maker
is given wide range of ingenuity.
To obtain the required shape the wax
must be worked and nodded with the
fingers while in a half molten state,
but care must be taken not to try to
work 1t too soon, for nothing burns
more cruelty than boiling wax. AS
soon as the wax is near enough the
desired shape 1t should be plunged
INTO cold water to harden. When quite
hard another application of a different
eolored wax may be given. This last
may be put on in streaks or circles, to
give the effect of a definite design.
Two shades of blue. for example. used
n this way will be most effective,
while bit of gold or silver sealing
wax should always be at hand for en-
bellishing the more somber colors.
With little practice numberless
diHerent designs can be worked out
and soon, with Just little skill. a girl
can provide herself with pretty set
