 one down the Barons had an excellent chance to increase their count. but he Tragesser and Robertson proved easy outs, the former flying to first base and the latter grounding to third.
 Another Score in Sixth
 The Vols were retired one, two, three in the sixth, but the Barons started an other scoring bee and came near sewing up the game, although only one run was added. Before any were out the locals got three men on bases and were unable to do much damage through the steady work of Boland' Mcdonald opened with a single to center. Marcan was walked and both advanced a base on wild heave by the Nashville finger. Knisely flied out to Williams at second, while Magee fouled to Hemingway. Roland then pre- scented the local club with score by walking Covington and forcing in McDon- aid. Ellam closed the stanza by striking out

Another hoodoo has been chased from the trail of the Barons. Up until yester- day when by out-rallyng the Volunteers in the ninth frame it turned possible defeat into brilliant victory, the local club was unable to render it's best serv- ices when thousands or ladies were on hand to cheer them on in their labor. In other words, the Barons were unable to register a game on the right side of the ledger on ladies day. Only once this season have the Barons been able to win and this happened soon after the race got under way. Since then the Barons have found it well nigh impossible to down the opposition on these particular days of the week.
 The old .5o0 hoodoo was also overcome during the week and the Barons now appear well on the way toward the top. They have hit their stride and are now ready to do battle with the Gulls. Look outs and Pelicans for the right of way to the first rung.
 Clyde McBride's hefty wallop- down the third base line aided the locals to eclipse the determined performance of the Vols in their part of the ninth, and turn into a victory a game that appeared beyond redemption. McBrides wallop scored two runs, allowing the Barons to nose out a 1 to 2 win in game that was as sen sational as the one wNh the Lookouts last Friday, when the Barons fought off defeat by gamely rallying in the ninth round and pushing across four runs after two were down

A Pitchers Battle

For eight sessions the game was a pitchers battle between little Roland of the Vols and Dick Robertson of the Bar ons. Only two hits had been yielded by Roland and three by Robertson, and the Barons were heading a to score when the pyrotechnics commenced.
 The Vols started the excitement but the Barons ended it up in a decisive fashion.
 After Williams had struck out in the ninth Robertson gave Callahan his base on balls. Sloan lifted long fly into right center which both Stewart and Knisely started after. Stewart signaled for the right of way, but Knisely paid no heed and, pumping into Stewart attempted to grab the ball out of Ais hand just as he was ready to make the catch. Knise- ly's error instilled the Vols with renewed hope and they waded into Robertson in a determined manner.
 A passed ball by Tragesser advanced Callahan and Sloan each a base and Gib- son brought both home with a single to center. tieing up the score.

Mcbride Delivers WalIop

In an effort to recoup the lost vantage Manager Molesworth sent in two pinch hitters in the ninth, Carroll and Me Bride. Although the former failed to deliver, the latter came through with a swat that turned the tide of battle
 Covington opened the final attack with a dingy over second, which he beat out. The Baron leader then sent in Carroll to bat for Ellam. with no result, as he struck out. Roland then grew little unsteady and Tragesser waited him out for base on balls. Mcbride was sub stituted at the bat for Pitcher Robertaon and he sent a drive along the left field foul line. The hit was easily good for a homer, but when Mcbride arrived at the third corner Tragesser crossed with the winning run, Covington having scored ahead of him. and the game was over.
 Robertson and Roland hitched. up in a pitching duel at the start, and for four innings the Vol moundsman held the Earons hitless while his teammates chalked up three off Robertson in the same space of time.
 In the fifth the Barons left their dor nant state and registered the first score of the game on a walk, a sacrifice hit and a single. their first of the fray. Knisely, first up, was passed and was moved on to second by Magee's sacrifice to the pitcher. Covington slapped a single to right field and Knisely came home. FL lam was hit by pitched ball and Gov ington went up one station. With only

CRANBERRY IN VARIOUS WAYS
Isilisd Berries Seem to Have the
referenee-AIways Cook the
Fruit With the Sugar.

There are several forms in which
the cranberry may appear on the
Thanksgiving table; 1t may be as
the conventional cranberry sauce
with the turkey. ranging from a
sloppy. sour. watery substance. In
which the skins and seeds are un-
duly prominent. to the mold OF jelly
or Jellied berries. To make a jelly
or marmalade, cook the cranberries
with as little water as possible to
prevent burning, for few minutes
only. until they are soft; drain In
cloth for jelly, or rub quickly
through a strainer for marmalade. Re-
heat with about an equal measure of
sugar, skim as 1t boils. turn into small
molds and chill overnight. and turn
thin or cooked too long the jelly will
not be firm. Such jelly may be mold
ed in deep earthen plates and cut in
inch cubes and heaped lightly in
dishes.
The jellied berries are preferred
by many. To prepare in this way
pick over and wash the fruit; to one
quart add q pound OF sugar and a
cupful of water. Cook rapidly until
each berry has cracked open, then
put in molds. When cold, many Of
the berries will be as round as be-
fore cooking, but tender and filled with
jelly.
Cranberries prepared in this fash
ion may be used for pies, either
baked between two crusts or In one
with strips of pastry arranged criss-
cross on top.
II soft sauce Is preferred to a
jelly, use as much water as sugar.
Cranberries cooked without sugar and
sweetened afterward are never as sat-
isfactory.
The combination Of cranberries
and raisins. popularity known as
mock-cherry. is satisfactory for pie
filling, or as a conserve. The usual
proportion is half as many raisins as
cranberries, and both should be cut
in halves. Cranberry juice or pulp
may be used in several ways: for a
fruit soup. or thickened with tapioca,
sago or corn-starch, sweetened and
nodded in small shapes. or diluted
with water and combined with other
fruit juices and frozen for sherbet
or granite.
Leftover turkey, especially the
white meat, may be cut in cubes and
blended with enough warm cranberry
jelly. not too sweet, to hold 1t in
shape when cold.

"a following no special dictates Of
the present mode and independent Of
sdme traditions, is shown here. 1t Is
fashioned to suit the bride along con.
servative lines which cannot be said
to belong to this or that date, but is
in good style.
T is handsome costume is rather
simple in design. with trained skirt Of
heavy white satin cut plain and fol-
lowing vaguely the contour Of the fig-
ure. 1t hangs from the normal waist
line and glories in an ample train of
the rich and shimmering fabric. A
full underbodice Of chiffon makes the
loveliest of foundations for the sim
pie bodice of lace draped over It. The
lace is shirred into slight fullness at
the shoulder seams and the bodice
closes surplicefashion at the front.
This arrangement makes a "V"-shaped
opening at the back as we'll as at the
throat. which is outlined with soft
folds Of tulle.

halfway to the elbow on the upper
arm. falling somewhat lower at the
underarm. The lace of the bodice is
repeated in an overdrapery. Parting
at the waist line in front 1t slopes to-
ward the back where it falls about
half the length Of the figure.
There is long tulle veil. falling
from under a very up-to-date cap OF
point lace. This is a novel method for
placing the bridal veil. and gives the
bride an opportunity to indulge in
that ancient superstition which at
tributes good luck to her who wears
something that has been worn before.
The little cap may be made Of old lace.
1t is shaped on q foundation Of fine
silk-covered wire.
The arms are almost covered by
long kid gloves. A regulation bouquet
of brides roses and lilies OF the val
ley and strand Of pearls about the
neck are concessions to customs that
cannot be improved upon in the raj
