Lynchburg. Va. May 11.-Richmon,l
and Lynchburg engaged In a ragged
though decidedly interesting game this
afternoon, the score going to a. tie,
to 2, in ten innings. Both teams were
guilty of errors OF commission and
omission, and with perfect play on
both sides Brooks should have won
by the score of TO 0.
The first run OF the Shoemakers in
the fifth was due to scratches by
Woolunls and jackson, followed by Lu-
cia's drive over first. The home team
scored again in the seventh on singles
by Levy and Jackson, King tagging
Jiacksons rap, permitting Levy to score
from second and jackson to go to
third.
In the eighth Bigbie took one In his

ton of pensions on the ultimate rather
than the mean salary is also open to
special objection. on the ground that it

an incentive to show favoritisin in the

"A provision for life insurance is a de-

Basis of Calculation.

THE amount of the retiring allowance
should be calculated on the basis of the
average rather than the final salary. The
English pension is calculated on the basis
of the salary received during the last
three years of service. but there has been
much discussion of this provision before
the various commissions.
Recognizing the fact that such a meth
cd of calculation is unsatisfactory, since
it necessitates the use of a salary scale,
which is always more or less unreliable,
but evidently loatll to make any great
change because of the reduction III pen
sion which it would cause, the Ridley

Plans Tried by Great Britain
for Superannuating Employees

That q contributory plan for retiring old
government employees, as approved in gen.
eral by President Taft and his cabinet
yesterday, has proved successful in the
federal administration Of Great Britain is
shown by reports of Herbert D. Brown of
the Treasury Department, recently fur
nished the Senate committee On civil
service.
When Congress receives the petition of
government employees for contributory
pension plan it will be found that the
Senate committee on civil service has
been gathering much data and informa-
ton on the subject, preparatory to draft
ing some such legislation.
The committee has full reports on the

The high standard of work in the federal
service Of England and her colonies Is set
forth In connection with the long-estab
lished pension system.
Contributory System Best.
After pointing out that the experiences
of Great Britain in pension systems
points to the adoption Of contributory
system as the best, Mr.. Brown says that
the experiences also show that not all
contributory plans are good. re be salts
factory. the report states, the plan must
forth as follows:
THE contributions should be placed in
fund and invested at interest under
guarantee Of the government, a separate
account being kept with each contributor.
Failure to fund the contributions of the
employees under the plan of 1884 led 10
unnecessary misa pprehension and discon-
tent. No account having been kept OF the
amounts received by the government in
contributions from the employees and the
amounts returned to them in pensions, It
was not known whether the government
had gained or lost by the transaction.
Nursing the belief that they had paid
in more than was ever returned to the
| service, the employees harbored resent
ment against the government. Failure to
fund the contributions resulted also In
| which they would have received had the
contributions been invested.
The amount Of contributions should
! be determined by the amount OF the an
nuity to be granted under the pension
scale adopted. The annuity should be
based on the amount of salary and the
length of service, which, in turn, depends
largely on the age at entrance into the
service. The percentage of deduction
| from salaries should vary, then, with the
entrance age.
This was not the case i'll the English
contrtbutory scheme of 1884, which was
based on a hat-rate assessment for all
ages Of Pig per cent ON salaries not eX-
ceeding GlGO C4SO and 8 per cent on
salaries exceeding that amount. The re-
suit was inequitable as between individ-
uals Of different ages and different sal

The eggs are always in demand, as
the white egg is the favorite in the
Los Angeles market.
That they will not lay as we'll dur

The pullets if Matched at different

POULTRY BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Certainly the outlook for the poultry
business, where conducted properly, is
very bright. Prices for poultry prod
ucts are very high. in keeping with
high prices of all other commodities,
and this notwithstanding the great in
crease of egg production of the past
year. our population is increasing
very rapidly. and the use of eggs as
food is increasing even more rapidly;
the high prices of meat products has
made poultry of all kinds sell well, and
altogether the outlook for the future
is very bright.
We wish to urge our readers to ap-
preciate the Importance of the indus
try, and to give to the fowls the care
they should have. You cannot expect
your birds to take care of themselves,
if you would have the best returns.
Look upon every hen as a money
maker-as, indeed, she should be-and
provide her with proper food, proper
buildings and give her proper care. If
she isn't deserving of this treatment
he should be fattened and sold.

AT NEW YORK
Big BattIeship Fleet-Naval Display Fla.
est Ever Liberal Shore Leave For
Men

The big American battleship fleet,
which is TO make New York harbor
its rendezvous for the next few days,
swelled rapidly in numbers yesterday
The seven ships of the fighting
fleet, headed by Admiral Schroeder's
flagship Connecticut, comprising the
first division, which already was in
port, were early joined by four other
giant warships-the Minnesota, YER
mont, Mississippi and Idaho.
This squadron had hardly passed up
the harbor when three other members
of the feet, which has just completed
its successful battle practice off the
Virginia capes, reached the outer
gates of the harbor. The three ar
rivals were the battleships Nebraska,
Rhode Island and Virginia.
With expected additions to make it
a fleet of sixteen battleships and
many smaller vesses, the naval dis
play is perhaps the finest the port
has ever witnessed, except on occa-
sionsiof celebrations participated in
by foreign war vessels. The men of
the feet will be given liberal shore
leave there.
Every bluejacket in the fleet will
be paid while the ships are there, and
it was said that the amount of gov
eminent gold that may be turned
loose in New York will probably total
$500,000 The lowest amount paid
to any sailor will be nearly $40.
The officers, of course, get their pay
at the same time
At the end of the visit to New York
the ships will go to the various navy
yards to be overhauled. November l
the fleet reassembles in Hampton
Roads, and as soon as possible there
after will sail on long cruise to the
ports of the Mediterranean. They
will be gone until early in January.
