All Hadley Boards Republican.

The Pennington asylum scandal
calls attention to the fact that Gov.
Hadley has completely Republican
lied the boards of the various state
eleemosynary institutions, On the
nine boards the governor has APP
pointed 43 members, 40 of whom
are Republicans. Of all theaDemo-
Gratis he found serving the state on
these boards, he has reappointed
only two Col. X. NJ. White of Mex
ico on the Fulton asylum board,
and Judge VIM. Williams Of Boone
vile, on the Training School Boys
board. 1t will be remembered that
Gov. Hadley told the Board of
Charities convention last June that
he was doing something no other
governor of Missouri had ever done,
making his boards non-partiSan, APP
pointing as many Democrats as Re-
publicans. But this was only an
other instance of the Governor

From Mansfield comes the news
that the little creamery at the place

the big trust creameries. The price
of cream was. % 1-2 cents a pound

was in operation and when the
creamery shut down last week the
price tumbled to Is cents. This
was all the foreign creameries would
pay.-Howell County Gazette.

LOCAL MILITARY
ORGAN ZiTIONS At
INDOOR BASEBALL

r. ILITARY organizations are Yer
MI on the alert to provide some
thing to stimulate and keep alive
the athletic spirit among its members.
Just now indoor baseball is hourishing
in this section among the citizen SOL
diers and gives promise of increasing in
popularity. In the East the game is
not INDUCED In to any extent among
those not connected with military or
ganizations, except in gymnasia of
Young Mems Christian Associations, as
a diversion, but the soldiers find it a
great game and are giving it the posi-
ton 1t deserves among indoor games.
Essex Troop, of this city, has a good
team, and in many contests with other
organizations fast games have resulted.
The troopers expect to go better next
season.
Company K, of Montclair, one OF the
cream commands in the Fifth Regi-
ment of infantry, has a team that
sprung a surprise on the local troopers.
Field Battery A, of East Orange, is
now In the field with what appears, to
be a good nine, n they will be seen in
action shortly against Company K and
probably the troop.
Cnler Mechanic Joseph Patcnen ana
Corporal Reginald Bennett are captain
and manager, respectively, and the
artillerymen are showing big interest in
in the preliminary details worked out.
The first game of the East Orange
boys takes place on February %, when
they clash with the team representing
the Third Battery, of Brooklyn. The
game will be played in the latter city.
Soldiers attached to the cavalry and
artillery arms of the service have quite
an advantage II playing the indoor
game. Their armories are of large di-
mension because of the room needed for
military ~evolutions.
The armories have a turf surface and
this allows for plenty of sliding reach
ing bases and allows for a lively game.
Regulation equipment can be used.
The large size ball, which icannot be
less than Tx inches in circumference
and not less than s or SA ounces in
weight, permits spectators to see the
sphere at all times when in action.
One rule of the game strictly adhered
to is that the ball is to be thrown with
an underhand movement, and an effort
to steal a base cannot be made until
the ball has reached or passed the
catcher.
