Mr.. Alexander gave demonstration Of
the unusual results which follow baking
in this air-tight range. He baked four

layers were placed one on top OF the other

ASKS PITCHER
Of CLEVELAND
Pres. Wollenweber Hopes to
Bolster Locals.
CHANCE YET FOR MARION
P Port S m ou t h has Hard
Schedule Ahead.
Leaders have Many Road Games
Against Three Strongest Clubs in
the Lcague-With one more Pitch
or Diggcrs Might Brace up and
Win Bunting.

President oswald Wollenweber, of
the local club, went to Cleveland to-
day for the purpose of securing u
pitcher to help out for the remainder
of the season. Mr.. Wollenweber will
call on President Somers of the Maps
and endeavOr to secure the loan Of
one of the numerous beavers under
contract with Cleveland With one
good pitcher Lewis will be able to get
up again and make a good fight for
the bunting. Portsmouth is now on
the road and will be there for eleven
days. During the remainder of the
season Portsmouth has 6 games with
Marion and Lima and after this series
will be through with Chillicothe and
Newark for the season. Thus with
Lancaster, Lima and Marion to fight
and most of the games on the road,
Portsmouth will have "A mighty tough
row to hoe to stay in the lead until
the end.
Marion returns here Saturday with
Portsmouth as the attraction. If Dig
gers can get to the Portsmouth crowd
there will be a new leader in the
race. Portsmouth goes from here to
Lima.

Diggers where upset again by the
Lanks with Cheney up to the tune OF
three to tile In the first engagement
Of the last series and the Dlggers
were incidently hauled down from
second place to which they have drop
ped in tho week.
Diggers lost mighty hard. They
found Mason a tough proposition and
commenced grabbing with the Umps
as soon rs the game started. The ar
biter was as much of homer as
ever but there really were no very close
ones FOR him to decide. Lanks won
by taking advantage of Digger mis-
plays, passes and hitting at times when
1t meant something.
Goulait was opposed to the clong-
ated Mr.. Cheney and the Frenchman
did not remain the hole game. At the
opening of the sixth inning he roared
so loudly on a decision made by Ma
son, having to do with a pitched bail,
that the l'mps put on the tinware de-
gree, Billy Baxter coming to the res
cue.Y When Goulait left the mound
Asanks had a one run lead and they
added another with Baxter on the
hill, making the game safe and sound.
: Ayette made the circuit in the Dig
ger third, tying the score.
Diggers had other chances but
Cheney's offering at such times seemed
unsolvabie. A sacrifice fly by Coli
gan let Ayette count. Hitting in a
runner was impossible.
.ossie Shreck was the cynosure of
an eyes. The old top caught u good
game but Lanks stole four bases, some
theing they will probably not be able
to do when ossie gets his bearings.

| cupation of Corea natives have been for bidden to carry firearms, and as a conse- quence tigers have multiplied to an extra ordinary extent. It Is not safe to go out shopping after dusk in some of the in- land villages and as many as. % or 40 lucltless natives have been deyoured in certain districts within a week The au- thorities will not raise the embargo upon firearms. how then Is the number of these dreaded beasts to be reduced?
 The tiger is possessed at times of an al- most supernatural cunning, wonderful sense of smell and fine instinct with re- gard to traps and the like, which make him as difficult an animal to take alive as any existing. Sometimes he can be shared, but not often. On one occasion the writer's native Indian servant ran in in a great state of excitement to say a tiger was trapped in the jungle half a mile away, and the entire camp, of course. at once fiocked over to see the prisoner.
 The trap was exactly on the principle of d humble mousetrap with d falling door. and built of strong timbers laced together with rattans. The imprisoned tiger was a full-grown male and it would be difficult to imagine anything wilder than his rage as he roared and stormed and hurled himself in futile fury on each part of the structure in turn. There he was to stay until hunger had rendered him manageable, the incident showing that the tiger can be trapped, although ont often. It is to be feared the Coreans will have to recover their muskets or put up with the sight of hungry tigers wan dering about their village streets.
