Williams had been cutting capers during the whole game, and in the eighth, when the Larks had l finished their turn at bat, the abori- zine went over toward the fence and sat down on the green swad. Cough took his regular place in left field, and just as Gardella, the first man up for the LarkS was about to bat, Williams took the regular left field, position, Cough retiring to the deep grass Gardella sent a long fly to the left pasture, Williams gathering 1t in and snapping the pill to second. It was 6, freak play all around, rec ords failing to show when a like stunt was pulled off. Williams had the rare distinction of playing on op- posing teams in the same afternoon. As Williams gets the put out, his name appeared in the box scores of both teams.

Make Them Paw

Maine men who are interested in
good roads will watch closely for the
| outcome of Mayor Fitzgerald's et-
forts to make Massachusetts auto
mobi'ists pay in part for the damage
they do to roads in parks, or speed
elsewhere. A bill is pending before
the Massachusetts legislature which
provides that a portion of the auto
mobile fees shall be applied to park
ways and roads in the METROPOLITAN
district. That bill is pending but has
not passed and there is a reasonable
doubt that it will pass.
Mayor Fitzgerald has not waited to
learn the fate of the bill. but mas in
formed the public that he will use
his influence to have the automobiles
barred from the roads under the con-
tHol Of the Metropolitan Park Com
mission and the Boston Park Commits
sion. When the Metropolitan Park
roads We're first built many OF them
were closed to automobile traffic in
the interests of safety of those who

An order was issued last Saturday by

neSc crackers. rockets, blue lights. Ro-
man candles. cOlored pots, lanceWheelS
and other works of brilliant colored fire"
in that city between June 10 and July
10. This has come a diSagreCable
surprise to the fireworks men, who had
supposed from the mayors previous re-
marks that he favored an old Fashioned
Fourth of July with all its noise and
damage. The crusade. for a sane Fourth
is gaining hca;iWIy The Civic Club of
Philadelphia began forming last Janu-
any Il national committee Of governors
to discuss the abolition of fireworks.
About twelve state executives have cX-
pressed themselves as favoring the idea.

noise crusade, but ii is not so far
reaching as the other. We have not vet
