Despite that awe inspiring uniform, which with so much eclat they were, tho toiling Turtles got the decision in the first intersectional brush with the bold and battle scared Barons. The count was 10 to 0.
 Ferguson was as tight as princess and far more serviceabe Throughout the scrimmage he held the Barons in the hollow of his palm. Trough. on the other hand, not yet acclimated, proved an easy mark. He was as that renowned pitcher who had prayer and it wouldn work. He tossed 'em up and tucked. and thereby doubtless prolonged his num- danef existence by several weeks.
 That Smash of Baerwald's In the first inning, the visitors told the tawdry tale. Moulton, first up, took two strikes and walked. Baerwald then inclined his avoirdupos against a straight one and away 1t flew through the dia- mond, to the fence, and half way back again. He made the circuit, and the game. to all reasonable intents and pur- poses, was rolled up and baked. The only hope remaining to the Barons was that the falling rain would continue to fall with ever increasing velocity. The locals squabbled in that Kelum was obdu- rate. When he finally called halt be- fore the fifth. the Turtles squabbled. At that time the score was to in tneir favor.
 The Turtles Were Hitting
 The rest shot-1ust twenty minutes. On resuming play, the Turtles resumed their terrific swatting though fHarry' Smith had succeeded Trough on the rub Der. When the rain again called halt the visitors had added another five runs. The crowd dispersed.
 When Captain Ellam expressed his be- lief that the locals had no chance to win, Kellum announced to empty seats that | the frolic had been concluded. The pitching of Ferguson was easily the feature. Marcan's hitting was excellent. Schwetzer scored three runs

A WARNING
Young Women Advise to Shum
Philadelphia School of Nurses


The Enterprise has ON different occa-
sions published notices soliciting students
for Philadelphia Sohoolfor Nurses, located
at 221e Chestnut St.. Philadelphia, be-
lieving that it was beneficent and Chart
able institution, but we seem to have
been deceived. according to the following
warning sent out by the Pennsylvania
State Board of Examiners:
THE Visitor of the Pennsylvania State
Board of Charities in a report states:
Nothing to be seen worth reporting. No
indication of lessons or instruction. Your
visitor cannot commend this institution;
and in a letter says: This last. places
this institution under the head of those we
condemn absolutely in our printed report.
1t is advisable that the public should
know that the young women who enter
this school as pupils are sent out after
having lad the most meagre instruction
from incompetent instructors, to nurse in
private families for money. eighty per
cent of which is returned to school treas
ry, They receive no bedside instruction
nor are they under the direction of skilled
and competent teachers.
The Chief of the Bureau of Health in
his report to the Director of Health and
Charities of the City of Philadelphia says;
81 feel that 1t is an imposition on the
public to allow this class of nurses to
practice their profession. as the following
circumstances connected with these
cases of typhoid fever prove conclusively
to my mind that these nurses are not
properly trained to be intrusted with the
noble work of nursing the sick"
The graduates of this school are not
accepted by the American National Red
Gross Society, nor the Nursing corps of
the Army and Navy; they are not admit
ted to tho Director for Nurses connected
with the College of Philadelphia. nor are
they recognized by the Pennsylvania
State Board OF Examiners for Registra-
ton of Nurses.
We have given you this information for
the reason that the poor and ambitious
young women. attracted by the advant-
ages set forth in the advertisements in
serted in the newspapers all over the
country. with great effort travel long dis
tances to attend this school. in the hope
of becoming trained nurses, only to find
after entering that they are giving their
time and work to an institution which
does not educate and equip them for the
profession of nursing.
In the interest of these young women
of your locality we would ask that you
give this statement as much publicity as
possible.

w. C. T. u. NOTES.

We are facing the days as they go
by with hope for the triumph OF our
cause and with the courage to do the
work that must precede victory. Our
hearts have been stirred this past
month by the terrible disasters OF
various kinds but most of all the sink
ing of the Titanic. hut while we sym
pathize with those who suffer from
unpreventable accidents, let us reach
out with renewed zeal to prevent our
boys or girls from going down with
the liquor traffic. Our Mrs. Shaw
who so ably presented the liquor traf-
fic and the white slave traffic has GER
tainly touched a chord in the hearts
of all who heard her pleadings. When
we realize that 1000 girls from each
state in the union and 1900 foreign
girls who come to our shores are fur
nished every year and 1900 boys to
the saloons it is time to wake up.
Our second speaker, DR.. Martin, Sum
day night said that the fight in this
great reform had only just begun.
Let us hope that it will come to an
END at once, and if the voters of this
county and the state OF Colorado in
which we are most interested will
do their duty our fair state will come
ont VIGOROUSLY next November.
This will be a busy year Tor every
one who is interested in all ines OF
reform and more especially to the
temperance people all over the land.
And God helping us we will win.
Our next meeting will be May 10th
at Mrs. G.. NJ. Coffman's, All s. 9th.
All are cordially invited to attend
these meetings.
Don't forget the show here next
Wednesday. May IS. 1t will signalize
the appearance of the Montgomery
Queens Famous Dog and Pony
Shows. This is one OF the institu-
tions OF the country that has a clean,
honest record. 1t is free from graft
ers. gamblers and all off color issues,
and is invariably attractive for ladies
and children. The baby elephant. the
beautiful ponies. and the educated
horse forrest Tempest. are said to
be the salient features OF the perform
ancc.

CLEANUP DAY.

The Commercial Club last Monday
night emphasized the importance of
cleanup day in Pennington, and
suggested May 18th as such day. II
really ought not to be necessary to
urge the cleaning up Of our streets
and alleys; the City Council ought
to order it done, not because the
Drummers will hold their conven-
tlon here on May 23d, but because 1t
Is wholesome and sanitary thing to
do. Indeed Pennington ought to
have at least four cleanup days
every year, and oitener wouldn't be
amisS. The Board of Health ought
also TO keep close watch on all al.
leys and other places where filth
and decaying matter accumulate,
and order them cleaned out at least
once week during the summer.
They are breeding places for flies,
and flies are rapid aud persistent
distributors of disease germs. Yes,
let's have cleanup day ON May
18th by all means, and let everybody
insist on il aud talk It.
