Bagby Driven From Mound

But in the fifth,0a brace of hits, com bined with costly pebbles, forced Bagby to withdraw reluctantly from the hillock. The beginning of the end of Bagby's re- gime occurred when Carroll tapped right field fense for two bags. Stewart hit a slow grounder over second base and car roll spurted home. Speedy Charlie swiped second and advanced to third on Me- Brides sacrifice. Bill Lindsay made a brilliant stop of Covington's gfounder and begged to catch Stewart at the plate. By speedy sprinting Stewart reached Hig- gins simultaneously with the ball and a collision resulted. The ball was wrenched from the catcher's clutches and knocked few feet from the rubber. Covington took advantage of the Pel misplay and speeded on. On desperate chance he essayed scoring and gained the decision for Bagby dropped Higgins throw. El- lam walked and went to third when Ira gesser landed on first on fielder's choice. At this juncture Bagby was ordered from the slab. He left reluctantly, for he evil dently felt poor fielding was responsible for his demise. Robertson was the first to face Benn. He hit slow grounder to Lindsay, who fumbed but recovered in time to nail Dick at first. Ellam scored on the grounder, while Tragesser went to third Marcan was walked and immediate ly stole second. Mcdonald singled to left, allowing both runners ample time to tally when Hemphi1l fumbled Eddie pill fered second, but Carroll, upon his second time up, grounded out to Starr, ending the rally.
 The Pels annexed their second counter in the seventh by the e,same method Rob- rtson walked Hemphill Lindsay flew out, but Sylvester doubled to right and Hemp hill counted.

Barons Seek Retaliation

The slaughter of retaliation opened in the third. Marcan opened the event ful inning by drawing a walk. Me- Donald drove grounder through Lind say Carroll bunted in front of the Marcan at third. The peg was wide and Marcan reached third in safety, but overslid the hassack. Molesworth, who was directing the base running man. euvers at third, threw out his hands toward his second sacker, behooving him to hook the bag. Immediately the New Orleans reserves, headed by Man ager Johnny Dobbs and backed by a large delegation, marched upon the dia- mond and demanded that Umpire Ches- mutt reverse his desicion and call Mar can out for the coacher's interference. But in a moment the squawk subsided. Three consecutive balls were issed to Mcbride. Bagby split the plate with a first strike and halved the plate on the next toss. The first passed without challenge, but Mcbride smote the sec ond and hurled it over second base. sylvester braced himself to make a quick return, but misjudged the wal lop, allowing 1t to bound through his eager hands. Before he could reverse, retrieve the pellet and peg to the in field, the bases were emptied of their freight and Mcbride checked up at sec ond. Tex Covington singled deftly to right and Demon Mack" tallied.
 The Pels, hopeful of overcoming the handicap, urged Bagby to tighten up and gave faint hope by scoring in the fourth. With two out, Walter Barbare drew a pass and scored on Charlie Hemphill' s dnubIe ma st first base

Pitcher Earl Bagby. one Nf the twirling mainstays of the Pels, was crushed by a shower of Baron wallops and driven from the slab yesterday. Big Benn. dis patched to stem the slaughter tion of the same dareful fate and Bir- mingham triumphed, 15 to 2. Dick Rob ertson, perennially known as a hard luck pitcher, scored an easy vistory. for the Pels could muster but six hits and two runs.
 New Orleans exhibited decided re- versal of form. Instead of fielding with accuracy and dash, the Pels fumbled and rendered the pitchers miserable support. It was the discouraging field ing that led to an overwhelming tri- umph. for six errors were recorded against the visitors.
 Neither Bagby nor Benn could check the relentless hitting of Birmingham. Fifteen safeties were registered eight against Bagby and seven against Benn. Eddie Mcdonald and Tex Covington led the onslaught, by procuring three hits in four trials. while Carroll. Stewart and Robertson larruped two safeties.
 Clyde Mcbride, whose lone hit sent in the first three runs. contributed 8 sen foul fly to the sunfield. The Barons. checked without advance on every at tempt to steal the day preceding, ran wild on Higgins, pilfering six bases and working the double steal.

 freckle-faced boy and the terror of the nelghborhood. At 12 he is an apprentice in a printing office. At IS he has acquired two cases of long primer and an army press and is the editor of a country newspaper. At 20 he IS married. At 30 he is baldhead- ed, stoorshouldered and the father of a large family.

throughout the spring and sum- mer and well into the fall busi- ness was generally reported as unusually good. There resulted the largest production is the his tory of the industry. The un- derlying cause of this prosperity is no doubt the improved charac- ter of the American product in texture, finish. color. decoration, and prevention of crazing. some of the higher grades of Ameri- can pottery equaling if not sur passing some of the best import ed ware.
 ''The imports of pottery have always been more of less inter estlng. For many years the value of imported pottery exceed ed the value of that made at home, but about the close of the century domestic pro- duction caught up with imports and since that time has greatly exceeded them, the production of 1913 being nearly four times as great in value as the imports. ;
 There was Tn 1913, however, a decrease in the ex- ports of pottery, but an increase should be expected in 1914 and following years by reason of the changes in the worlds commerce hat seem inevitable.

That Prohibition Amendment
" PROSPERITY.

In discussing the mooted ques- tion of license or prohibition. one of the most persuasive argu- ments is the dollar argument. We need the money, . Tt will hurt business, :" and like state ments are believed and result in votes for license.
 Space does not permit an ex- tended inquiry into the financial bearings of the liquor traffic. but a few suggestions can be made and established facts cited.
 First, we may note that the estimated direct cost of liquor Tn the United States annually is above $2,OOO, ,OOO,OO The indi- rect cost is much more. This di- rect liquor bill is far more than than the nat1on's bill for meat or flour or sugar or cotton or woolen goods. Now, no statesman has eyer shown how, logically, the investment of two billion dollars in that which is not a food, but a poison. which always in some measure impairs efficiency, and often destroys health and life it. self, which impoverishes woman hood and childhood as well, can contribute to national prosperity.
 Kansas is in evidence here in two points. She has had pro- hibltion for over thirty years. It cannot be shown that Kansas has superior natural advantage over other states. But Kansas is now said to have the lowest death rate and the highest per capita wealth of any state in the union.
 Closer analysis of the license argument shows that it means this: We need money for roads and schools and other purposes, and it is easier to raise it through impoverishing certain victims of appetite than to raise it by direct taxation. This also is false req sonlng. Let me quote from al letter from M. c. Zamwalt, a prominent business man of Tu- lare, California, where I was for three years a pastor. This letter was addressed to a friend. of mine, and says in part:
 .'As perhaps you know, did not vote tor a dry town, in fact, very few of our business men did, and it took almost a year for us to realize that we were better off without saloons.
 Every place formerly occu- pied by a saloon has been re- placed by more respectable business all doing well. People buy better goods. All merchants admit collections are better; men who formerly wasted their earn ings in saloons now have bank accounts and write you a check for goods instead of giving you a hard luck story
 ''Tulare county is entirely dry, and we venture the assertion that there is not a more prosper ous county in California.
 Above are some of the consid-
