RICHMOND. Va. March 2s.--Man-
ager Chance and his Highlander bril-
gade rolled into town this morning
0nd will he here until Monday night.
Two games are scheduled, to-day and
Monday. From hero the team will
hit the trail for New York and pre-
pare for the battle with the Dodgers
on Thursday.
Pitchers Cole. Heating and Cald-
we'll will leave for homo Tonight and
have orders to get into good condition
for tho game at Ebbets Field. Chance
doesn't know yet who will be sent
against the Dodgers. but II Is likely
that Caldwell and Heating will go
nifty and fifty" against Robinson's
crew.
Pecklnpaugh and Holden were out
of tho regular lineup against tho
BufYalo team Mt Charlotte yesterday.
which accounts In large measure for
the defeat OF the team. Boone. who
replaced Peckinpaugh. made two
costly errors. Manager Robinson
anu tho Dodgers witnessed the de-
feat Of the Highlanders.
HOUSTON. Tex. March cs.-The
Giant regulars are here to-day for n
battle against the locals. Manager
McGraw arrived this morning and
Immediately wanted an explanation
of the defeat Of the team yesterday
at Galveston. But this was easy to
make. Schupp lost the game In the
final round whom the Galveston play
ers banged his pitching for three
runs In the final round. 1t is not
likely, however. that the game would
have been lost had McGraw been on
the base line. The regulars did a lot
OF "stalling' after the sixth round,
whom they had the same Q to s. Had
they continued 10 play Mt top speed
runs enough would have been scored
TO offset the ninth inning rally Of
the Galveston players.

A very attractive wedding was a
part Of the Thanksgiving day pro-
gram at the home of Mrs. Miriam D.
Way on Laurel street. The bride was
Miss Maidie c. Way and the groom
Mr.. Edward J. Chapman of Iowa
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
w. j. Douglass assiste dby the Rev
II. J. Van Fossen. The bride was
charming in dress of white silk en-
broidery and Irish point lace made
from shawl worn by her great
grandmother. The groom was dressed
fitting the occasion. Miss Ora Pat
rick sang "Oh Promise Me-" the we'd
ding march was played by Miss Callie
Vogeli; after the ring ceremony, Miss
Winnifred Lester sang Beloved, 1t
Is Morn"
The rooms were beautifully deco
rated with English ivy and Oregon
holly, the bride and groom standing
under the mistletoe. After the cere-
mony the guests we're invited to the
dining room, where a bountHul feast
had been provided, which was not
only wedding dinner but Thanks
giving one as we'll The color scheme
here was pink and white, the tables
being adorned with white chrysanthe-
NUNS and pink and white carnations.
The happy couple left on the even
ing train, going south to view the
exposition grounds and from there
to their future home in Wyoming >.

I
Thanksgiving was certainly sthe
acme of goodfellowship and social
spirit in Ashland. Every family in.
dulged in the usual overloaded table
with turkey as the centerpiece, some
attended the theatre in box parties,
and some went picnicking in the
country. a,. --
In the evening a large number at.
tended the Elks' ball, about two hun.
dred being present. 1t was a5gay
affair, ball gowns being in abund-
ance. The new sleeveless designs in
ladies' costumes were much in evil
dence. Twenty-Five dances were on
the program, and it took until about
2 O'Clock to finish them. At about
midnight banquet was served in the
banquet room of the building, and it
certainly reflected much credit on
the managers of the repast. Several
were up from Medford and were in
attendance.
Thanksgiving fell upon the busi-
ness men as well as the rest, for they
closed their stores and took pleas
ant holiday. The postoffice also re-
mained closed the entire day. The

do your Christmas shopping
early" is the slogan that is posted up
in the postoffices all over the coun-
try. If people will do this it will
tighten the tasks of the workers in
the postoffices, it will tighten the
burdens of the shop girls, it will ease
strained nerves, and from the fore
going, as a result, it will bring a
better Christmas to those engaged in
the handling of Christmas goods.
Most of the merchants of Ashland
have already got in their Christmas
goods Why not pick them out now,
so you will not have to run down
town the last minute, after working
hard all day preparing for Christmas
festivities? . IN -
