That the header for the Browns al
ways was good batter is shown by
the record he made In the minors and
majors. He started his professional
career back in 1903, with the Lamar
club OF the lowa-South Dakota league.
The latter part of the same season
he went TO Dallas. in the Texas league,
where he played In 1904 and 1905.
He had trial in the big ring before
finally sticking. That was in the fall
OF 1904. when he had a three-weeks
tryout with the Cincinnati club, but
was sent back 20 the Texas league
club. In 1905 he did such good WORK
that he was drafted by the White Sox,
but before getting a chance with Com

Browns for Catcher Roth.

loss is between $4,000 and $4,000. All
of the equipment, including harness,
saddles, etc, in the stables wero de-
stroyed.
The fire started in stable No. 100,
where a trotter owned by Robert Barr,
Winchester, Va, was stabbed. The
blaze is supposed to have been started
by stable-hands using a lighted Ian
tern in a fight over a crap game Barrs

by c. C. Ritter, Winchester Va, was
also burned seriously. -
The fire burned north to stable 81,

thrilling escapes during the fire.

Jockeys and their wives rushed from

Many heroic rescues of horses were
made by stable men. The $4,000

The loss is partly covered by INSTR

for the first time in perhaps thirty
years that the exhibition has been
continued over Saturday, because rain

to continue the exhibition another

RAILROAD NOTES

Ivy Lee, executive assistant to the
president of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road, made an address last night before
the Huntingdon (Pa.) Board of Trade.
Railroad equipment men say that
not since the panic of 1903 has such
complete stagnation of the equipment
markets been witnessed.
/, The Baldwin Locomotive Works has
received an order for two small loco
motives, the first motive power order
placed in several weeks.
There is no foundation for reports
that the Pennsylvania RailroaN Com
pany will acquire the Buffalo and Sus.
quehanna Railway Company.
While tentative plans and specifica-
tons have been made for the electri.
fcation of the mountain route of the
Pittsburgh division between Altoona
and Conemaugh. Pennsylvania Rail-
road officials say the actual beginning
of work on this project is in the far
distant future.

five for himself and five for a friend,
who was also a little doubtful in his
allegiance.
Instead of turning the money over
to his fellow Democrat the man who
received the two five-dollar bills went
on spree and spent the entire sum.
The second man has not yet gotten
his cash and threatens to turn the
town upside down if he is not seen

Senator Beidleman said the two
were in the audience and if they de-
sired he would tell their names. There
was considera BILE urging in some quar-
ters of the theater as the laughter
spread, but nobody volunteered.
Big Meetings
The meeting at Halifax was held
In the Halifax Theater and was large
ly attended. Charles Zimmerman, q
veteran Republican and well-known
.liveryman, presided. Arthur H. Hull,
of Harrisburg, and John C. Nissley,
candidate for Assembly, were the
other speakers.
At F1SherVille there was an excel
lent turnout, notwithstanding that the
Democrats regard this as one of their
strongholds. The enthusiasm for the
Pal-McCormick combine is not so
great there now, however, as it might
be If the Laudermilch shirt factory
had not been compelled to shut down
as a result of the Democratic hard
times. More than fifty people heard
the speakers, despite the fact that the
meeting was held in the open air and
that rain had been falling until an
hour before the gathering, which pre-
vented several bussloads of voters
from surrounding districts from COM
ing in.
c. M. Bowerman presided and intro
duced the speakers and the arrange
ments were in charge of f. Lauder
milch, the Republican county commit
teeman of that district. Senator Bel
dleman made the principal address
and was preceded by Mr.. Nissley, who
made big hit by addressing his
audience entirely in Pennsylvania
Dutch.
AS usual, a few Mccormick roister-
ers on the outskirts of the crowd tried
to break up the meeting with cat-calls.
but the crowd wanted to hear and
silenced the young disturbers before
they had gone very far. 1t is said they
were members of one. of Mccormick s
so-called good government" leagues
