GREAT BALL is ON
CARDS FOR TODAY.
.Cuthbert Here For Series
of Three Games.

Some interesting ball is the prom
Use given Americas fans by the man
agement of the Champs for today, to-
morrow and Saturday, and the wis.,
ing team, it is doped out by those
who know is one of the fastest that has
yet appeared on Dudley Field.
Cuthbert is to come on those dates.
and when it is known that in the line
up of the aggregation appear the
names OF Bowden, Cooper and White.
Of the Atlanta Athletics, it will be seen
that the aggregation is a very strong
one
The Champs will also show several
strange faces upon the field. among
the number being Heath, who per-
formed benaeth the willow here in
half of tie last game with Albany, and
Bunkley, a fast infielder secured from
Brunswick, who will cover the initial
sack. This is a point at which the
locals have been crippled since the
unfortunate accident to G. d. Wheatley
several weeks ago, and the landing
OF Bunkley has added much to the
strength of the team, both in fielding
and at the bat.
The Cuthbert aggregation recently
went against several strong teams on
their own dunghills and succeeded
in beating them two out of the throA
games played
Wilson will probably pitch the op
enlng game, and the local fans are
expected, as usual, to rally in greqr
numbers, cheering the home team TO
victory. The playing will commence
this afternoon promptly at O'Clock.

CONVICT RECOMMENDS PRISON
FOR AN IDEAL VACATION
Sing Sing is Pleasant Summer Resort.
Says He.

New York, August losing Sing
prison is a fine summer resort. saws
Convict No. 6O,277, according to his
views, published in the Star of Hope,
the monthly publication of that in
stitution. He writes:
The climate possesses all the sa-
lubrity of the temperate zone, vegeta-
ton is abundant and the scenery un-
surpassed.
The mighty and majestic river
bears part of the great traffic of the
eastern ports and every day in sum-
mer shows moving craft going north
and SOUTH
Accommodations have all bee mar
ranged on the theory of the simple and
not the strenuous life. They hold
happy medium between the Ancient
Order of Anchorites and the fever
ish gayety of Broadway. Everything
favors good digestion and philosophic
resignation amounting almost to con-
tentment
Social functions, the bane of 50
many fashional resorts and the most
serious hindrance in the way of back
10 nature, are unknown.
THE board is plain Only on very
rare occasions are more than two
courses served, and all rich, cloying
or indigestible foods are ayided. Lib
ster salad, canvas back duck and all
the doubtful glories of the kingdom
Of the cold bottle and the hot bird
are absent Table etiquette is very
strict, and silence is considered de

LABOR CONDITIONS
IN EXCELLENT SHAPE
Best Since 1907. Accord
ing to Labor Department

The following summary of labor
conditions in New York, the largest
state in the Union, is of general inter-
est, as it shows conditions that will be
reflected in tie reports that will be
made later from all sections of the
country These estimates of condition
will be made available from all sec
tons by the federal governments ceL-
sus figures.
New York, Aug. 9.-That labor il
more generally employed now than al
any time since the panic of 1907 is
stated in a report just issued by the
State Department of Labor. Locally
and throughout the state, according tt
a report, there has been a recovery
approaching almost normal conditions
| The report in part says:
Returns from secretaries of all la.
bor organizations in the State, repre-
! senting over 100000 members of IN
ions, show 16.1 per cent of the mem
bers idle on the last working day OF
March and rs per cent of the mem
bersLfp having been idle continuously
during the months of January, Febru-
airy and March
Comparison makes evident the
great improvement in 1910 over 1862
especially in the matter of protracted
| idleness. 1t also reveals the fact that
the proportion of idleness among or
ganized wage workers in the first
quarter of 1910 was low tan before
the panic of 1907, and was in fact
lower than in any other previous year
since 1896, except for tae four years
1902, 1903, 1905 and 1906. The differ
ence between those years and 1910 ara
however, all small except in the case
of 1906, when TIE percentage of idla-
ness at the end of the quarter was con-
siderably lower
1t is shown the distribution of the
idleness reported at the end of Marca
according to causes, showing compai-
ative figures for number of years. [.
will be seen that the great reduction
in idleness in 1910, as compared with
1909, appears under idleness due 20
lack of work, only 66S per cent. of the
1dleness this year being credited 20
that cause as compared with 81.3 q
year ago, and a still higher percentage
in 1908. The 1910 figure for this eau Sc
IS even slightly below that of of 1907
Offsetting, however, the reduction in
this cause which directly reflects the
influence of improving trade condi-
tons, is an increase in the proportion
of idleness due to labor disputes. in
cdnneAion witt which comparative
figures of strikes and lockouts re-
ported to the Bureau of Meditation and
Arbitration in laser pages.
Idleness Due to Strikes.
An examination reveals the fact
that idleness due to labor disputes in
the first quarter of this year is found
principally in the building and paper
making industries AS a matter Of
fact, this idleness in the former in
dustry was due almost entirely to
the strike of steam filters in New
YorG city, willie that in the paper in
dustry was caused by the general pa
per and pulp makers strike which be-
gan in March"
The report for the last three months,
April, May and June. it is stated, will
show even greater Improvement.

THERE were some sentences passed In
court, on Thursday, that called forth ex-
pressions of sympathy for those on whom
they were imposed, and also there were
some who were inclined to criticise the
court. The offenders were chicken thieves.
They had been working in a systematic
manner, not being content at taking from
one or two farmers, but had raided the
henroosts of seven people, being caught
for these acts. and, as 1t appeared in the
argument of counsel, one of the men was
guilty of a theft that had not been
brought to light before. One of the cul-
prits was man who had the respect of
those for whom he had worked and in
surprise when he was arrested was great
Another of the trio had been in the state
prison for a similar offence, and was out
on parole. But for the discovery of their
crimes the robbing of henroosts might
still have been going on. As it is there
has been q cessation in the neighborhood
where these men have been operating.
While chicken stealing is not the worst
crime on the books by any means, it is a
despicable business and one that has
caused the farming community more
ANNOYANCE and loss than almost any other
act. In the cases that are now under dis
cussion there is nothing to call for sympa-
thy or to give reason for thinking the men
have been too severely punished. The
very respectability that gave one of the

by the clocks In the state house, but at
eight o'clock Thursday morning according
to the town clocks, the New Jersey Legis-
lature discontinued business and the men,
bers went home or to some convenient
spot where they might get few hours
sleep after strenuous all-night session.
The work done by the Legislature was
not as bad as had been predicted would be
the case, Notwithstanding there are those
who are now crying from the housetops
that the state has been disrupted from
Hudson to Atlantic and that nothing can
prevent the Democrats from regaining
power. Many of the laws passed may
have been of local Importance only, but
there were some good ones enacted. A
public utilities bill. not exactly what was
desired, but still better than nothing, and
an entering wedge for law with far
reaching powers, was put through. A
water snake was scotched. and the waters
of the state will not be allowed to be car
ried to any point some corporation may
select merely for the purpose of putting
money In the company's treasury. Rail-
road property. which has been the bone of
contention for long time, will be re-
valued under the system suggested by
Governor Fort, with the exception that it
will be taken from the special commission
and put into the hands of the state
board of assessors who will be aided by a
competent expert. And there were num-
bers Of other bills that will be beneficial
to the state at large. The Legislature
which has just adjourned was not "the
worst ever" and its members are not en-
titled to unjust criticism.
