BASE BALL.
THREE GREAT GAMES.
Natchitoches defeats Marshall, Tex.
in Double Header.
OFF TO MANSFIELD.

The base ball fans, some say
'fiends," of the surrounding terri
tory, from Alexandria to Cou-
shatta, had a surfeit of t h
National game last Sunday and
Monday, when the 10 GALS met and
defeated Marshall, Tex. in double
header Sunday, and lost the third
game by punches of errors
usually call "bone-head plays. "
and some of the poorest coaching
ever seen on a diamond.
However the errors of Monday
were forgiven in remembrance of
the splendid team and individual
work in the double header games;
but the boys should be more care
full, remembering the backing the
town people are giving them.
The first game of the double
header, was an exhibition unex-
celled by any, whether protest.
onaI, college or amature. The
box work by johnson and Grigs
was perfect and each equally en-
titled to the credit, and the work
Of the team was equal to the
champions of the National League.

WASHINGTON, Jan 21.-If Great
Britain admits charges OF hauling

The state department today had its
International law experts busily en-
gagged in searching precedents to de-
termine whether this alleged act con-
stitutes an insult to- the stars and

Some doubt existed as to whether
Great Britain was not within her
rights when she. replaced the nag

tion OF the Greenbrier. But the state
department insisted that Great Brit

The British consul had certified the

these circumstances a British ship
should detain the neutral Greenbrier,

Not longer than 90 days ago little
group of automobile men, represent

association, sat around a long table,
discussing plans for their 1915 show.
In business circles there had been
much talk OF war and hard times and
the outlook was not rosy. The ques-
tion In that meeting was: Shall we
retrench, as everybody else seems TO
be doing, or shall we go the limit?
In spite of conditions, these men
had experienced good season. The
spirit OF optimism was strong within
them and would not down. Times are
bound TO improve, they told one an
other. So they decided to go the
limit. Instead OF cutting the show
they determined TO expand. AS though
to test their faith, there came from

It takes hold of the usual cough or

bronchitis and winter coughs.
It's truly astonishing how quickly IL
loosens the dry, hoarse or tight cough
and heals and soothes the infamed mem
branes in the case of painful cough.
1t also stops the formation of phlegm in
the throat and bronchial tubes, thus end
ing the persistent loose cough.
Pinex is highly concentrated COM

combined with guaiacol, and has been
used for generations to heal inflamed
membranes of the throat and chest.
