In the Right Place

The old soldier was telling if his
thrilling adventures on the field of
battle to a party of young fellows,
one or two of whom were skcptical as
to his veracity.
"Then," he said, "the surgeons took
me up and laid me carefully in the
ammunition wagon and"

Prosecutor Robinson.
"Mah name?" asked the darby in

'I'm talking to YOU" snapped the

"Well, sub, nah name is Hallowed

Made A Survey

st. Johns-Between fifty and sixty
members of the Methodist, Congrega-
tional, Baptist and Episcopal churches
made a canvass of the city Friday,
with the idea of finding out the num-
Der of families not belonging to any
church and also to find out which
church, if any, they favored. Over
one thousand homes were visited, and
in all but two the canvassers were re-
ceived with courtesy and kindness.
There were very few but what deelar-
ed a church preference, only about
thirty making no choice.
Monday few more homes were Wis
tied with a similar result. This COM
pleted the canvass. Most of the streets
were covered with the exception of a
few short or out-of-the-way ones. This
will enable the various churches to do
more definite and effective work with
out fear of conflicting with other de-
nominations. 1t will no doubt be fol-
lowed up-by pastoral calls and much
good is expected to result from it.

No Arrests to BE Made

reenville-Following the eXamina-
ton of the witnesses Of the death of
Emanuel Snyder of Greenville, Prose
citing Attorney Miller decided that
Edward Fisher, who struck Snyder,
would not for the present be charged
with Snyder's death, owing to the fact
that Snyder started the quarrel by GO
ing out to the road TO meet Fisher.
Snyder, it is said, was for over year
subject to heart failure. Physicians
had warned him not to get excited.

scHEMINe TO BEAT THE RAIN.
Carrigan Will Try to Burn Up
Water in Base Paths.


Water in Base Paths.
A new way of burning up the base
paths'' has been evolved by Manager
Bill Carrigan of the Boston Red Sox
Every fan who goes to a baseball park
has ON more than one occasion seen an
afternoon S pleasure suddenly ended
by an unexpected downfall of rain,
More than once the disappointed thou
sands have waited the allotted half
hour for a clearing, only to find that
the grounds have been so thoroughly
drenched by the downpour that further
play for the afternoon is out of the
question. In order to cope with lust
such an emergency and thereby avoid
postp0nements whenever there is the
least possibility of playing, Carrigan
has decided to try out the advantages
of a certain burner which may help TO
relieve the situation.
This burner is one such as is used
| by cities on asphalt pavements and by
! stonewOrkers in the construction OF
granolithic sidewalks. The intense
| heat is used to melt the tar on the
pavements and the blending material
| in the sidewalk construction. Bill fig
ures that such burner, run up and
down the baseines after the rain has
ceased to fall would accomplish what
the groundkeeper and his staff have
been unable to effect in the past.
The base lines suffer most during :.
rain storm. The pitcher box and the
intield are covered by canvas and pro
tected to a certain extent, but it takes
only few minutes of heavy rain thor
oughly to flood the base lines; and in
some instances, where both teams have
decided to resume play, it has taken
half an hour or more before the ground
could be put in anything like playing
condition.
Carrigan s idea is that by sprinkling
sawdust on the wet ground the moment
the rain ceases he can set the burner
in operation and it viii take but few
minutes to accomplish the same result
that force of assistants would neeC
nearly an hour to effect.
! The Red Sox manager is also consid
ering the introduction of a suction ma
chine for use on the grass and in tn,
outfeld. Quite frequently deep puddle
are formed by the heavy rain and Bill
figures that machine worked on tn,
principle of a lawn mower could b.
rolled over the outfeld and the waite
in these little pools all pumped up s.
completely that the playing area woul,
be bettered UNNECESSARILY by its use
Fred Clarke, the manager of tn
r Pittsburg Pirates, was the first base
ball man to try to beat the rain. H
! invented a tarpaulin covering, whicl
n could be spread over the diamond t
keep it dry when the rain was falling

BOXING BOUT TONIGHT.
Bailey Says Perrel1 VIII Make d.
Roller Extend Himself.

DIR. Ben T. Roller will be seen here
once more tonight in a boxing match,
this time with John Perrilh of New
York, the Italian boxer and wrestler,
as his opponent. The men have met
as wrestlers, but never before as box
.ers, although the last time they at
tempted to wrestle they started to
turn the affair into a boxing match.
George W. Bailey, who promoted the
match in the hope of putting someone
against the physician who could get
revenge for Bailey for the beating
Roller gave him a few weeks ago, is
satisfied that Perrilli has class enough
to extend the physician to his liimt of
knowledge and ability in the boxing
l'game.
The men will meet in Festival hall
at clock on a raised platform ring
| which Bailey has had constructed espe
ciallv for such events in order that
| the boxers may be seen easily from
| every part of the hall. There will be
a preliminary match between Young
Streeter, who made a good impression
in his first bout here a few weeks ago
and an unknown whom Bailey is t
produce.
Bailey reports that there has beeI
a satisfactory sale of tickets and tina
| the box office will be open at 6 o clocl
this evening and continue open unit
after the match starts.

 During the last few months begin ninga were made on the construction of several one-story, buildings on Bos ton avenue, the last one of which was staked out last week. Work is being, rushed on them and by the time spring arrives it is expected they will be completed and ready for use. Then the bayonet and much of the rifle manufacture, now carried on in I1ion, will be transferred to Bridgeport. 1t is expected.
