But morning broke and no sound or

her own feet and to travel fast.

The Patriot.


Sir Thomas Upton said at provi-
sioners' banquet in London:
"All the blame for high prices is put
on us dealers. You'd think the way
some people talk, that we dealers were
as false in our patriotism as the chap
who was sanding his sugar the other
day with his errand boys help.
"The errand- boy. lifting scoopful
of sand, asked:
"'The usual proportion. sir?
mo, Joseph, of course not,' the
boss replied sternly. "The usual pro-
portion in days like these? Joseph.
where's your patriotism?'
"Then he sighed and added:
"'Only half the usual proportion Of
sand, Joseph-only half the usual pro-
portion as long as our gallant troops
at the front have such need OF sand
bags"

STOPPED SUNDAY GAME
War on Sunday Base Ball at schenec-

Albany, May 1.-THE annual war
On Sunday baseball in Schenectady
was opened yesterday when Deputy
Sheriff Daniel Sweeney went to Mo
hawk park at the end of the Broad

ances," Sheriff Louis A. WEIGH said
last night. We've had many com
plants since last Sundays game was
played at that park. The ministerial
association has complained.
Deputy Sheriff Sweeney entered
the gate at Mohawk park yesterday
afternoon without buying ticket.
An elderly man stopped him and ask
ed him for his ticket.
Are you charging admissions"
Sweeney asked.
He was told that admissions were
being charged. The deputy sheriff
proceeded toward the grand stand.
He was not ordered off the ground.
AT the end of that inning, the
fourth inning, Sweeney stepped up to
Lobby" O'Brien, manager and catch
err of the Jeffs, and advised him to
stop his game. OBrien protested,
Sweeney said, on the grounds that
Sweeney had not seen any admis-
sions paid, but when the gate tender
again admitted in front of O'Brien
that admissions were being paid, the
catcher consented to withdraw his
team. All of the players left the
field AT the end of the. fourth in
ming, the Jeffs were leading by the
score of two to one.
There were about 200 fans present
They protested loudly against the
stopping of the game, for which they
said they had paid admissions. Sher-
if Welch denied last night that the
stopping OF Yesterdays game was the
result of complaints fled with him
by representatives of the New York
Civic league.
The interference of the sheriff in
former years has followed complaints
filed with him by George II. West,
superintendent of the law and order
department. of the New York State
Civic league.
