f. FL. Horstman gave an able paper
to the Fortnightly Literary club on
Friday night, his subject being the
poet Shelley. He spoke of the bene-
fits of poetry and said that the most of
us were to busy too real the volumes
left by the great writer's. The theatre,
the automobile, the metropolitan
papers and other Turing attractions
draw us from the pages of the poets.
He said that people read more today
than formerly and believed that the
average person perused at least a
thousand words a day, which, if
spent along the lines of the greatest
art would in time encompass much in
the field of literature. The speaker
doubted if the average person knew
whether it was King David or Long
fellow that wrote the Psalm of Life.
This is not the age of art.
Mr.. Horstman gave an instructive
estimate of Shelley which was evident
that be had given the subject much
thought and careful preparation. He
said that Shelley would never be
popular, that his philosophy of life
was peculiar.
Mrs. e. Aug. Runge presented q
resolution which was passed inviting
the Tower Hill Congress to meet in
Baraboo in 1914. Last year the con-
gress was held in Portage and next
year it will be held in Spring Green.
The other clubs of the city will be
asked to aid and the other officers Of
the congress will be notified that the
city desire the meeting be held here.
A number of new names were pre-
Sented to the club.
The meeting on Friday night was
with Mr.. and Mrs. FL. e. Cole and
the next one will be with Mr.. and
Mrs. r. B. Griggs.

SHOW
WAS A SUCCESS

"Mrs. Dooleyn is the name of hen
worth $1,000 which was exhi, ted
among the 1900 fowls of the university
poultry show at Madison. Eggs from
this hen are sold for $5 each and they
find a ready market. "Mrs. DooIey"
is Partridge Wyandotte. She is the
property of the Shepard farm of Glen
dale, 0. "Mrs. Dooley" is worth 81 900
because of her high class as brood
hen. The entire arena of the large
stock exhibit pavilion was filled with
coops containing prize chickens.
Among those from Baraboo who
exhibited birds at the Madison poultry
show were L. M. Jacobs, William
Wichern, Paul Cahoon, Ernest San
derson, G. T.. Gibbons and f. T.
Frank. The prizes awarded were as
follows: Ernest Sanderson on buff
orpington, first pen, second cock,
second and fourth hen and third and
fifth pullet; f. T. Frank, black or
pingtons, first pen; L. M. Jacobs,
white orpingtons, first pen and fifth
hen and William Wichern, rhode
island reds, second pen. Ernest Ross
sent some buff orpingtons to the show,
but they arrived too late as did some
birds from Massachusetts, which were
on the road week.
This show was the largest ever held
at Madison, birds being there from
Ohio, Massachusetts, New York Sand
various other states. 1t was necessary
to hire two hundred extra coops to put
chickens into. The Baraboo exhibitors
made a good showing, carrying off ten
prizes.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness lis caused by an infamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you havea rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tireIy closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be DIES
troyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infiamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

over, however, Able changed his mind
and stated that he was not in form and

secured as his opponent.
The St. Louis boy could see nothing

Of stamina, for Joe has shown that he
is there with the strength and endur-
ance- He was coming along nicely
until he bumped into that awful wal

the ninth round at New Orleans and
put him to the bad in the tenth. Joe

1T LOUIS, No, April 1. - Many
writer's make the mistake of over
~ estimating the work of a pitcher.
John McGraw came close to the mark
when he credited pitching with being
worth 80 percent to the club and bat
ting with being equally valuable, d.
viding up the other 40 points among
the various departments of play.
Two Sides to the Shield.
That pitching cannot be 80 percent

Tides any game into its two elements

Pitching is negative The best it can
do is to prevent the other fellows at
tack from succeeding If it accom-
plishes this much. it is perfect. or so

is won when the other fellow is
stopped
Attack Wins Games
But, it's up to your attack TO over
come the other fellows defence, and
that's the other so percent of the
game.
Thus if the pitcher struck out q
men in the nine required innings, he
would still not represent so percent
of the victory, should the club subse-
quently win, for the skill of the CATCH
er in handling his curves and in direct
ing their delivery would surely be
worth something When We consider
