Madison Team Won Is of the
% Games Played This Season

MADISON, Oct. 1.-The All-Madi-
son baseball nine, under the able
management OF Frank A. Force, has
achieved an enviable record. They
have played twenty-three games. OF
which eighteen were won and only
five lost -Four of the victories were
against the Morristown A. A. team,
one against New Providence, the
Prudentials of Newark were beaten
every time and several other worthy
teams were the losers when they
crossed bats with the locals. The five
games lost were one to Morristown,
two to Bloomfield, one to New Provi,
dence and the other to the Milford
A. A. The team had O percentage OF
.7S3.
Fred Jaggers weathered the whole
season as slab artist for the Madiso~
team. He had good records of strike
outs in every game pitched, and al
lowed but few hits in any of the
contests. Three years ago he pitched
for the Morristown A. A. team, but
was not thought good enough by the
management. This year he defeated
this team in two out of the three
gaines he pitched against them
There has been a hard time with
catchers, none having caught anv-
where near the number of games
played. Jack Fields caught most of
the games, but left before the first
half of the season was finished. Mad
igan then acted few games in. this
capacity, and he was succeeded by
Woods and the latter by Mahoney.
The last two proved experts behind
the bat.
Colonel" Waters, the star short
stop, leads the team in batting, hav-
ing an average of 400. Conway is
second with 1854 and Fields third with
$3.50.
The batting average of those who
have played the required number of

Nothing is so essential to health
in advancing age as keeping the
bowels open. It makes one feel
younger and fresher and forestalls
colds, piles. fevers, and other de-
pendent ills.
Cathartics and purgatives are
violent and drastic in action and
should be avoided. A mild, effective
laxative-tonic, recommended by
physicians and thousands who nave
used it, is the combination OF sim

Mr.. Giffin gives the following
signed statement as some of the
reasons why he favors the bond is

ers should vote for it:
