The 'invincibles'' went down to
defeat yesterday at the hands Of the
lucky Seniors by the score 6 to D.
BY a combination Of errors from the
Juniors, a wild throw in the seventh
and great big streak of luck. the
Seniors raced in six runs against
the well-earned five Of the. Juniors,
The game began with two runs
in the first inning for the Juniors
and the game looked one sided at
the time. The Seniors were snuffed
out one, two. three in their half of
the inning and the Juniors scored
again in the second The playing
was tight and fast until the fifth
when the Seniors were allowed a
free ticket to first and a balk and
hen a long drive over right by
Browning who brought in the two
rl,nners. Anderson followed with
I long single scoring Browning and
tying the score. The side retired
with two outfield flies and an out at
FIRST. Then began the real game.
Anderson and Browning double in
seventh.
Being unable to score in the next
wo innings the Juniors got sore
Ind played loose while the Seniors
vhacked the ball wherever they
pleased Schulz singled. Browning
followed with double, scoring
Schuh and came. in on another
double of Anderson. Butler singled
md scored Anderson and Mattingly
was put in the pitchers box in the
place Of Brown The next three

without doubt won the game for
without the repeated luck hits, the
Juniors would have won.
Juniors Rally in Ninth.
AT their last time up, Martin of
the Juniors, was passed to first and
also Schoembs With two men on
base and no out Coru famed and
Brelsford followed with a clean
single over second scoring Martin,
Schoembs going to third at the
same time. Mattingly hit to right,
scoring Schoembs. With two on
base and only one out Brelsford was
tagged out at third Brown famed,
leaving the final score to the
Seniors, 6 to 5. When Brelsford
was put out at third quite a dispute
arose as to whether Pitcher Butler
baked or not in throwing the ball.
Umpire Allen announced his de-
clsion as no balk and was in all
probability right, for the play was
fast and hard to judge from the
side lines.

oun TRAVELLER GUESTS.

Welcome hearty to the Grand Coun-
ell, United Commercial Travellers, as it
hegins its session here to-day. SUCH
guests Richmond delights In having
within her gates. for they arc every
whore the opponents of everyday
brotherhood and the advance agents
of progress II commerce is the great
torch-hearer of civilization and the
foundation Of national prosperity, then
the commercial travellers are an i'm
ncnso force in upbuilding the coun-
Try and in making for better order
of things. The man who has a good
line is really an apostle OF efficiency
and an exponent Of the square deal
between man and man.
who is this bagman?" said some
OF tho lordly scofrers OF England when
the greatest benefactor OF the Eng
l!sh people Richard Golden, put an
end TO the System of legislative muir
der which Starved people to death"
by forbidding the importation into
England OF the necessary foodstuffs OF
life. It was this commercial Traveller
who loved tho business for the oppor-
tunities It save him OF studying men
and things that drove famine from the
homes OF the plain people ana estab-
I!shed the principle of free trade for
the benefit of Il starving nation; 1t was
this man whose memory Is revered
as is none others OF modern times by
the English people who was proud
that lie had once carried n sample
case. There are lesser Cobdens in
great number among the commercial
travellers to-day; missionaries who
preach the gospel of good roads, be-
cause they know by hard experience
the need of them; men who carry into
the dark and far away places the in
spring story OF progress and reform;
men who infect communities with zeal
for the new and the better things OF
life: men who excmplify everywhere u
cheerful philosophy OF frnternalism
and service. Travelling men constitute
the greatest human advertising force
in the world; they advertise that which
is good. and they do not advertise that
which IS not They build cities with
their boosting; they give a good name
that is above price.
If all the commercial travellers sud
denly quit tho business and none could
be found to take up their work, the
world would soon realize their ire
mendous Importance to commerce ana
to civilization. Without them business
would to n great degree dwindle ana
become stagnant; without them mil
lions Of innkeepers would go to the
wall; without them many communi-
ties would be dark ana Backward
without them tho wheels of business
progress would go slow indeed

no Judges of Thorn only as the neccs-
sary evils accompanying mis- hurried
passage. But pedestrian may have
to endure an almost continuous shower
of dust ani steady gust of foul
smelling gas on the road or sitting in
the park.
AS for speeding, part of it is due
to the needless chase for sensation
among the young and thoughtless
who become afflicted with the speed
mania. This should be checked with
stern hand. Another cause is the
natural desire of an automobilIst to
use his car to get from one place to
another IN hurry. He employs IT as
a time saver. And when he starts, he
forgots that his haste may bring in
jury to another. There is also
e dency to feel that the responsibility
has been shifted to n chauffeur who
Is paid to keep going and not hurt
any one.
1t is certainly true that otherwise
considerate and careful people do
forget the rights of others when they
mount into the tonneau OF car. This
Is no reason for interfering with the
legitimate use OF cars for pleasure
and business. But 1t is reason for
demanding skill and Judgment in the
men who run them. A strict license
system should be enforced. Tho
.houghtful owner moreover should
watch his own unconscious leaning
.oward speed and selnshness. often
increased by the psychological effect
1f the machine.
