MOTORCYCLE NOTES

Perhaps to no class of people has
the motorcycle become more valuable
than to missionaries, both in foreign
countries and at home. The very ma
ture of their work necessitates that
these men cover a large territory
where travelling facilities are limited.
Until recently missionaries have had
TO depend upon horses, or perhaps
even slower means of transportation.
And, as in some countries they furnish
practically the only medical aid given
the inhabitants, the delay in transpor~
tation has often proven very serious.
BY using motorcycle, the mission
aries are not only able to keep in
closer touch with the people, but can
reach any part of their districts within
comparatively short time, in case of
sickness.
Among those who have found the
motorcycle very useful in missionary
work is Sid David Bruce, who employ
ed three motorcycles in his campaign
against the terrible sleeping sickness
in Central Africa. One of these ma
chimes he used himself, consigning the
oIheiS " HIS dSSiStdHlo- - ninio%Si
of Kellerton, Ia, has also found the
motorcycle very valuable in his work.
Recently he rode to Des Moines, a
distance of 342 miles, in ten and one
half hours. The trip cost him just
seventy cents.
st. Louis, Mo-, women have just
raised funds with which to purchase
two motorcycles to be sent to the mis-
sionaries in Texas.

Changes Of Climate.

A scientist who recently investigat-
ed the causes of secular variations in
temperature at the earth's surface
thinks that they are more probably
due to changes in the amount of car
bonic acid in the atmosphere than to
variations in the heat of the sun. If
the amount of carbonic acid that the
air now contains was diminished a
little more than half the mean tenn
perature all over the earth would, it is
stated. drop about eight degrees,
which would be sufficient to bring on
another glacial period. On the other
hand. an increase of carbonic acid be-
tween two and three times its present
amount would raise the mean temper
allure fifteen degrees and renew the
hot times of the eocene epoch.-Boston

EASTERN INDIANA
LEAGUE BREAKS UP
ElWood Withdraws and Indi-
annapolis Disbands is An
nouncement.
RICHMOND is VICTOR
Locals Defeated Newcastle in
Interesting Game Yes
terday.
RICHMOND is VICTOR

The Eastern Indiana Baseball league
is no more. The swan song was sung
with the playing of yesterdays SEIZED
uled games. Elwood, for some reason
unknown to the local club, has dropped
from the league, and the Indianapolis
Taste Tells have disbanded, leaving
Richmond, Cambridge City and New
castle literally holding the sack. The
announcement was made this after
noon.
The management of the local team
stated today that games will be played
with Cambridge City and Newcastle
according to the schedule arranged,
and that other games will be secured
with Cincinnati, Dayton Indianapolis
and other teams. The Cincinnati
Shamrocks will appear here June 20,
and the Indianapolis Reserves on Au-
gust 10. Next Sunday the Lily Brews,
of Dayton. will play here, and Cam
bridge City will play at Newcastle.
The local club probably will secure
games with the Wiedemanns, of New
port, and the Cincinnati Heidelbergs.
The Anal standing of the E. l. league
was: Elwood, won 2, lost none; Cam
bridge City, won 2, lost 1; Indianapo-
lis, won l, lost l; Richmond, won l.,
lost 2; Newcastle, won none, lost 2
The Richmond team defeated New
castle yesterday afternoon at Athletic
park by the score of 4 to 2, in one of
the best games seen on the local lot
this season. The game was well
played throughout.
Newcastle registered one tally in
the first inning and held the lead I'M
til the fifth when Richmond scored
two runs. In their half of the eighth
the score though the local aggrega-
ton pulled together and added two
more runs to their credit in the last
of the eighth.
For a time it appeared as if the
game would stop in the eighth when
Stiers of Newcastle knocked a liner,
which the umpire called fair, but
which the spectators and members of
the Richmond team declared was a
foul. Romine had secured base on
balls and Baumann had sacrificed
WhSL CdLuS up uc umpire,

After considerable argument, the UNI.
pire reversed his decision, sent Ro-
mine back to second base and STEERS
to bat. STEERS flew out and Wilson
knocked long fly, Hill dropping it.
Wilson got as far as second when
Graevs flew out.
Walters pitched his usual steady
game and held the Newcastle players
in check at all times. Romine, who
pitched for the visitors was effective,
though he became ratified with men
on the bases. Richmond got five hits
and their opponents four. Each team
is credited with two errors.
Stupp's work at Short was rather
loose during the first few innings, but
he pulled together and made a num-
Der of sensational plays. His batting
and base running was a feature of the
game.
In both the fifth and eighth innings,
Richmond had three men on bases.
Batting rallies with Romine's wild
ness sewed up the game in Rich
mond's favor, during these sessions

Mother of Invention.

John and Mary married impecunious-
ly on $50 a week and went to live in a
walk up" apartment, two flights up.
Then baby came and, besides adding
to the family, added to the impecuni-
osity. Ingenuity went far toward solv-
ing the problems of living for two in
an inexpensive place. Baby strained
that ingenuity further. At first it was
no impossible task to carry him up
stairs, but he grew, as babies will, and
sIary's back became weary daily as she
carried him up.
What was to be done? Oh, for an
elevator.
The dumb waiter? OF course. There
after, when Mary and baby came in,
baby was put in the dumb waiter Then
Mary walked upstairs and hoisted
baby. Baby liked it, Mary liked it,
and if you don't like it that doesn't
matter.-New York Post.

DEMAND
EXPECTED
TO COME

big demand for the remaining lots
of the Gary Land Co.'s, west side of its
first subdivision. is expected to follow
as soon as it places its property on the
market following price revision.
Many Lot Inquiries.
The action of the company yesterday
in issuing notice that all west side
property was off the market until
prices can be raised came without no.
tice. AS result today and yesterday
there were many inquiries Many of
the inquiries are for lots north of Fifth
avenue and west of Broadway, which
Is now being rapidly built up.
Some time this spring 1T is expected
that there will be boom in east side
property. Sales in that part OF the
subdivision have been of a healthy
character. but not as fast as west end
stuff. However, most of the west end
stuff has been closed out and attention
will be directed to the east side of
Broadway before the spring is well ad-
vanced.
The land company has sold nearly
every lot in streets improved in its Sec
ond sub division.
