Standing Of the Teams.

The closing games Of the regular
schedule Of the Y. NJ. c. A. indoor
baseball league Tuesday night make
no change IN the standing of the teams

winning the postponed game it will be
necessary for the team to meet the
buggy company to decide supremacy.
Should this necessity arise the cham
pionship may be decided in a single
game or may be determined by Sc
ries Of three games. This matter will
DC left to the two clubs after Friday
nights game, in the event the gym"
class wins. The game, however. will
be closely contested. and altho the
trowel company has trailed greater
portion OF the season it has devel-
oped rapidly in the past two or three
weeks and will give the gym" class
fierce fight for the game.
The buggy company defeated the
trowel company Tuesday night by
score Of to 4, after see-saw con-
test. In the second game the gym
class defeated the grocer company by
a score of u to >.

ELIAS DAY DRAWs CROWD.
Methodist Brotherhood Entertainment
Is Largely Patronized.

The entertainment given at the
Methodist church Tuesday evening by
the well-!lnown and popular imperson
ator. Elias Day, under the auspices Of
the Methodist Brotherhood. was a
marked success both in the size of the
patronage and in the high character OF
the entertainment. The entertainment

T, largely patronized OF any similar enter

Prompted by the apparent demand
for an entertainment course such as
Marshalltown people have had advan-

proposes to put on a winter chau-

practically assured The project was
explained at the entertainment Iues-
day evening by Mr. Thomas Stotts.

who introduced Mr.. Day. and who
called for an expression Of approval or

SENTIMENT SAID TO De PRETTY
WELL DIVIDED BETWEEN
CLARK AND WILSON. :,
LEADERS HOPE FOR AN
INSTRUCTED DELEGATION
Some Of the Liberals Favor One and
Some Another, While "Hoiy Rollers"
Are Divided, According to Secretary
johnson - Chairman Herman is
Strong for Clark.

What the local democrats consider
vention in recent years will be held at
the east court room next Saturday at
ternoon, when delegates to the state
convention at Burlington will be
chosen
That the sentiment for Clark and
Wilson as presidential nominees is
pretty equally divided, is the DECLARE
ton of Robert E. Johnson, secretary OF
the county central committee. Some
OF the liberals favor Clark, and some
Wilson," said Mr.. Johnson, and on the
other hand some of the Holy Rollers
are favorable to Clark and some to
Wilson. 1t is hard telling what the
convention will do, and it depends
largely on which faction turns out to
the convention in the larger number"
Is Not Delegate Convention.
The Saturday conv entlon is not to be
delegate affair, as most political
conventions are, but any one who poses
as democrat is entitled to seat. The
county is entitled to twelve delegates
to the state convention, and similar
delegation will be seated at the con-
gressional delegation, which meets at
the same time and place. The same
delegation viii! represent the county at
both conventions.
Hope for Instructed legation.
The leaders Of the party in the
county are hoping that the Marginal,
county delegation will be instructed,
but if there is division. Mr.. Johnson
said today, the delegation would be
sent uninstructed. A strong effort is
going to be made to swing the con-
venticn for Clark. for whom Charma n
George Herman is working tooth and
toenail.'

The gay crowd of lads and lassies

been lighted, when. with little warn

feminine gypsy told in four words

fine poplar trees valued at $4,000
located on tract of land in Letch-

ANOTHER NUISANCE.

A Louisa storekeeper who was
scrubbing his floor and the side
walk in front of his place of bust

an inverted blessing on the heads
OF the offenders who had spit great
pools OF nastiness on his premises.
He said there should be a law a.

FOLLOWS CLEANLINESS.
Good Health Dependent Upon Clean,
Premises.

Civic health follows civic cleanli-
ness. To be dirty as an individual
is to be personally sick. To be dirty
as town is to be unhealthy as a
town. To be sick as a citizen u,
inconvenient and costly. and to be
sick as town is depressing ana
expensive to the whole community
These are truisms, but not So
self-eyident that it is not sometimes
necessary to call attention to them
good woman who spoke at the
town meeting the other night said,
and said truly, that she kept her
premises clean. Suppose every
woman in the city of Louisa. did the
same thing, and suppose that in ad-
dition screened, perfectly against
the fly and drank no water. that
was not absolutely pure? If this
were done 1t is entirely safe to say
that, barring accidents and old age.
the death rate of the adult popula-
tion of Louisa would be next to-.
nothing. The death dealing power
of that winged insect which first
visits every cesspool and filth pile,
in the neighborhood and then comes,
in your unscreened door or window
and promensdes across tho butter

tary bath in your child's milk, Is in

Of Railroads and Coal Companies
Made q Trip Up Big Sandy.


Vise President Frank M. Whitaker
and General Superintendent j. Paul
Stevens, of the Chesapeake & Ohio
and Freight Traffic Manager G. L..
Thomas, of the Baltimore and Ohio
and Cincinnati, Hamilton and Day
ton roads, left last night for Ash
land, KY, where to-day they Will
join President George w. Stevens,
OF the c. and o. and President DAN
lei willard and Vice President
George f. Randolph, of the b. o..
system. They will take run over
the Big Sandy Division OF the G.
and o.. as well as over the Sandy
Valley and Elkhorn Road. which IS
being built by the B. and o. inter-
ests from the fields OF the Console
dation Coal Company. This road
will cost s2.000,00O to construct.
and II extends from the mouth Of
the Shelby River at Shelby, KY. to
the new model town Of jenkins. The
fact that work was being done to
create the town of Shelby and the
Sandy Valley Road was printed in
The Enquirer on June II, 1911.
This road will supply the c., H.
and D. with coal. and the visit of
the railroad officials is TO arrange
the traffic and transportation de-
tails.
Some of the Consolidation coal
will be turned over to the c. & o.
for the haul to Cincinnati, but the
greater part of the black diamond
traffic will be routed over the c.,
II. and d. from Ironton, The B..
and o, and G. and o. interests have
formed traffic agreement that viii
mean great deal to the c., H. and
ID. which road at the present time
gets all the coal ipcan handle in.
this city for the haul to Toledo.
Last year the coal traffic through
Cincinnati aggregated 100000 tons
and from present indications the
amount of coal handled through
here this year will go far beyond
the 5000, ,00O-ton mark
A number of coal operators will
also be included in the inspection
party. The Consolidation property
comprises 100000 acres. The Louis
vile and Nashville is also building
toward the same region, and as
the coal that road hauls will come
through Cincinnati this city is de-
stined to become the greatest inland
coal center in the United States.
The Norfolk and Western is also
reaching out for the same region,
and 1t is expected that some OF its
coal will come through this city
The fact that the N. and w. was
going to build into the Kentucky
coal fields from Norfolk. Va, was
printed in The Enquirer June IA
last year.
1t is likely that the\ officials will
also have conference with Off
cials of the Carolina. Clinchfield
and Ohio, which is building from
Dante va. to Elkhorn City. KY,
where connection will be establish
ed with the Big Sandy Division of
