Bender got himself out of a ticklish Do

Davis Single Scores Run.
Ii Was Harry Davis, forced into the
game by reason of McInnis' injury who
was largely responsible for the Athletics
first run. Baker had singled in the Sec
ond and Murphy moved him up with u
sacrifice, short passed bail put him on
third, and Davis brought him home with
clean single to left. Barry's drive 10
Mathewson allowed Davis to reach 81
ond. Barry was left while Thomas aIed
at first. Both pitchers were WORKING
carefully and giving each batter consia-
cradle consideration.
Mathewson's style OF pitching has
changed. He no longer possesses that free
and easy motion which was characters-
tic OF him in former Years. As result
he does not appear To have the speed
that he once made use of. He seems TO
rely principally on his ability to outguess
the batters. Tie Athletics are doing lit
tie waiting. 'they are hitting at most
everything Matty" offers which comes
near the plate, figuring that il does not

Farmers Are Losing Entire Herds
Through Disease.

Muscatine, Ia, Nov. 13.-Affected
with typhoid pneumonia, thousands
OF hogs have been lost to the farm
ers of Muscatine county during the
last two months, causing loss that
has been extended into thousands of
dollars. A prevalence of the de-
structive disease threatens to an
initiate the greater portion of hogs
in this county. although DR.. John
Tillie, assistant state veterinary sur
geon, believes that the greatest dang
er has passed and that with another
hard spell of cold weather, wherein
the ground will undergo freezing,
the critical stages of the disease will
have been overcome.
In some sections of the county. it
is said, entire herds have been wiped
out. DR.. Tillie has been busily en-
gagged during the last two months in
endeavoring TO stamp out the dis
ease. In many cases where the farm
er has co-operated in giving the az
fected animal the proper care and at
tention, cures have been effected.
He states that the conditions this
year have been particularly favor
able for the existing circumstances,
the cold. wet weather following an
especially dry period, causing the
animals to drink stagnant water,
which resulted in the spreading of
the infection. The thousands of
methods OF transporting the disease
further aided in increasing the num-
Der of deaths.

THE SHACK.

You kin talk of life in a palace,
And of wearin' a jeweled crown,
And of life in a marble cottage"
Where the nabobs flock from
town;
But give me home on the prairie,
Where the sods ne'er been turned
back:
There's nothin' that makes for con-
tentment
Like life in a homestead shack.
You can talk of the joys Of Twin
Where the slaves of the city toll;
There's nothin' to wrench the heart
strings
Out here on the virgin SOIL
Just give me a door facin' westward,
And coffee and bacon snack,
And dreamy old pipe in the even
I'm strong for the homestead
shack.
The sun peeps in at the dawnin',
And it reddens things up at night ;
There's nothin' to break the silence
And set a mans thoughts TO flight.
There's pride in his hard achieve
ment--
OF settin' the wilderness back
And there comes the glory of con-
quest
To him in u homestead shack.
Arthur Chapman in the Denver
Republican.
