An Enthusiastic Crowd

A magnificent crowd witnessed the

 the cioseness of the race. was thor
 oughly aroused. Though there was a
 sprinkling of Mobile rooters seated in
 the grandstand, the bulk of the 5000 people was composed of ardent ad- mirers of the locals Early the grand stand became so full that the mem bers of the Rick wood band were forced to yield their seats and climb into the press gallery Before the game had be- gun every available seat was occupied and before two innings had been con cluded spectators from the white and colored bleachers had entered the arena. This necessitated the ground rule agreement
 It was an enthusiastic mob, too. The band strove assiduous1y in It's effort to arouse the fans to a still higher pitch of excitement, but from the first 70 the last inning every man was doing his duty and could not rally to further exertion The noise. as result Of 60oo pairs of expanded lungs. aided and a abetted by tin horns and COW bells, was as the roar which emanates rom the enclosing circle of bull ring.

BarOns Crawl Ahead

In the sixth, the Barons scored an other run. which, it was afterwards proved was sufficient to win the game. As the second, McGilvray opened this round with double, the drive losing Its strength only after having cleared the head of Jacobson in left. Johnston placed neat sacrifice which sent the runner to third. Ellam's terrific smash to left was captured. but permitted McGilyray to race home unmolested.
 In the eighth. 1t looked as if Demaree was exhausted. He walked Almeida as an opening contribution. After pitch ing seven balls to Mcbride he split the plate with the eighth, and the Baron bingled tuicily to left. McGiIvray's perfect sacrifice showed the runners to third and second. Johnston's drive stung the foot of O'Brien and escaped Almeida scored. Demaree rallied to meet the emergency. and neither Ellam nor Yantz could deliver.

As a re- suit Demaree reached third and Maloney second before man had been retired.

Marcan opened with a screaming double to right center, and Carroll very neatly sacrificed him to third. Almeida smashed one fierce ly 10 Walsh who juggled long enough to permit Marcan to score, but not long enough to permit Almeida reaching first In cacthng the belated heave of Walsh and retaining his balance following the collision, Paulette displayed brilliant att tainments.
 In the second McGilvray opened with a screaming double to right center. John ston failed in an effort to sacrifice. But Ellam. with the count three and two" as concerns balls and strikes, bingled sharply 10 center. McGilvray scored and Ellarh went out trying to reach second

Mobile in the Lead

Mobile acquired the lead for the first and only time during the game In It's half of the fourth. There were two down when Walsh doubled down the first base line Dunn, who should have been walked inasmuch as pemaree was next to follow, singled to center, and Walsh scored easily.
 But the Barons evened things up in their half of the same inning AL meida opened by drawing a walk, Me Bride sacrificed him to second. Mc- |Gilvray was pessed.

TEXTILE STRIKE LOSS
ESTIMATED At MILLION
Troops on Duty at Mills Say
Only 700 or 500 Men
Are Employed.

Lawrence, Mass, Feb. Ito
day. which marked the beginning of
another month in the strike of more
than 10000 mill operatives for an
increase in wages, was one of gem
eral activity. The Central Labor
Union officials drew up the demands
which are to be made upon agents
of each mill, while the Industrial
Workers of the World leaders spoke
at a number Of meetings, urging
solidarity among the strikers.
1t is estimated that the financial
loss due to the strike, major por-
ton of which falls upon the strilI-
ers, already approaches the $1,000
900 mark. The mills are said to
have protected themselves against
great financial loss by having their
work performed at their factories
elsewhere, or on sub-contracts by
which they receive a share Of the
profits.
Some mill officials declare that
10000 operatives are now at work,
but the military observers, who are
still on duty with their troops at the
factory gates, say only seven or
eight hundred hands go in where
usually 5000 are employed.
Leaders OF the Industrial Work
ers of the World assert that this
strike is but the beginning OF an
Industrial revolution. .t,ss.. ..
That there will be some access
ions to the ranks of workers in the
Mills tomorrow morning is GER
lain. Members of the Loom FiXers
Union, employed in the Arlington
mills, have voted to return to work,
and their decision has been indors-
ed by the entire Loom Fixers' I'm
ion, which is independent OF both
the Industrial Workers of the
World and the American Federation
of Labor.

A SERIOUS QUESTION.

1t has been a matter of comment
in Hartford lately about ? certain
class of cases that have occupied the
time and attention of our Circuit
Court OF late years - litigation
which involves the chastity of wo-
man and the alleged criminal intent
of man. There has apparently been
a series--too large a number for
the good name of the county--of
these cases in our courts OF late
years. 1t is enough to set one
Notwithstanding vi at some
outsiders may opine of our county
as municipality, anyhow. To put
it mildly, these cases do not con-
duce to the well being or good rep
utation of any community where
they happen or are brought to pub
lie notice through the courts. Too
much they make it a case wherein
the innocent suffer with the alleged
guilty; where thousands OF people
of both sexes who lead virtuous and
upright lives are classed as belong
ing to or living in a community
where excuses of immortality are of
too frequent occurrence.
1t is a matter to attract the at
tention of the father and the
mother, especially those who have
daughters and sons growing into
womanhood and manhood. 1t all
embraces hideous lesson in NOR
ais, so plain that it would seem to
need no advice as to action in any
supposed premises. But will the
rising generation-or their parents
heed 1t? Must the suffering and
ignominy OF the accused and their
alleged victims, in court, pass only
as a matter of course and without
any inquiry of conscience, or posi-
BILE action to prevent recurrence of
such things among a naturally good
end vel. iptentioned people? Should
the plain moral go unimproved?
Without any intention of at
tempting to fix blame in any case or
upon anybody, yet it becomes pat
ent to the observer that something
is wrong with our social fabric
some abnormal condition that per-
mits these things to happen with
such alarming regularity and fire.

emergency that hardly a session of
our criminal court convenes without
its proceedings embracing much
that one would blush to recite the
particulars to wife or family, 1t
certainly denotes a cancerous
growth upon our social system
somewhere. The aspect OF serious
ness is when the courts are appeal
ed to for redress that seems other
wise unobtainable. What may
transpire of this character outside
the knowledge OF, the courts,is prob
lematical. No doubt the courts
never hear of all that occurs along
lines of alleged violation of chastity
and honor.
But let us hope that these cases
are not without their evident warn
ing, their righteous quickening OF
conscience and their moral, albeit
there be some persons who would
see no lesson in them of morals or
of justice. There are few things
more serious than that which may
involve the good name OF a citizen
ship or the welfare of its souls.
