TAKEN TO ASYLUM

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Odlum, of 25
Broad street, was removed to the
State Hospital for the Insane at
Trenton, yesterday. City Marshal
William Walters was unable to coax
her into a waiting automobile in
front of her home, so the police
were appealed to. Patrolman Niels
Tonnesen used good diplomacy and
by means of a ruse got the woman
to board the car. She was then
rushed to Trenton, where her son is
also confined in the State Hospital
for the Insane.

STATESMEN PLAY BALL.
House Democrats Defeat Republican
= Team, IL to 9.


Washington, Aug. S.-About the
weirdest thing In the way Of a base
ball game ever seen in Washington
took place on Georgetown University
field between teams representing the
Republican and Democratic sides of
the house. The Democrats won, II to
8, In four innings. They made eight
hits and so many errors that Uncle
Joe Cannon, the scorekeeper, got writ
ers' cramp trying to tally them.
The Republicans swatted the ball
safely twelve times, but were nearly
all butter fingers when 1t came to
fielding. The contest might have last
ed awhile longer If most of the play
ers had not been winded, for several
of the 500 spectators who paid 81 each
to see the game, which was for the
benefit of the Washington play
grounds, were still left in the grand
stand at the finish. But there were no
protests when Representative Wilson
of Illinois, the Republican umpire, and
Representative Byrnes of Tennessee,
the Democratic arbiter, agreed to call
time.
