Some of the new sand-clay roads

Will develop into good roads. And

Sand-clay roads, or any other kind
except shell or macadam, will be bad
after rain until they are thoroughly
packed. The thing to do is to use
split log drag after each rain, and in
just few months they will BE as
hard and smooth as pavement. This
class of road when properly graded
and drained will stand, and is the very
best that can be made outside the
high priced roads that run four and
five thousand dollars a mile. The

Up came the burly Mr. Engle to
bat for Wood. A ball and strike was
called, then Matty served up
straight one and Mr. Engle walloped
it high and far into deep left center
field. 1t was thousand dollars to
a nickel that Snodgrass would make
the catch. He judged the hit per-
fectly and stopped running to steady
himself for the falling leather. He
got both hands on the pellet, but 1t

the crowd went insane. Engle stood
on secnod base with nobody out, and
Boston's big hitters were coming up.

breathe as they wondered what was
about to happen.
Although Snodgrnss was heart
broken he didn't quit, and when
Hooper practically duplicated En-

pitched to Yerkes whizzed directly
at the latters head. Yerkes ducked
and the ball striking the end of the
bat, whistled into right field for
clean base hit. Things began to look
squally for the Giants in this inning
when Mathewson purposely walked
Speaker. The latter was forced by
Lewis and Yerkes reached third. A
council of war was held near the box
and beautiful trick was framed for

to Herzog. Herzog, in turn, chung to
