The closest game of ball ever played in the South Eastern Ar kansas League was that be- tween Monticello and: Warren, played on the Monticello diamond, on last Friday evening. The score was l to 0 in favor of Warren. Just peice of bad luck lost the locals the game. Three times at the bat, and two times with full bases, one of the Monticello boys famed, some thing unprecedented in the
 teams batting history; and Chambers and Alsop, of the Monticello team, were both rob- bed of three-baggers, if not home-runs by broken bats. Both made safe hits as it was, and had their bats held intact, the balls would have been knocked to- ever-catch. Chambers, sswho pitched for the locals famed fourteen men, and the visitors only got two hits and a scratch

hit eff Of hin; while Gannaway the Warren pitcher famed only eight of our men, and lost to them six safe hits. It was thrilling game from start to fin ish, and our boys have no cause to feel bad over their defeat.
 Mr. Bennett, the Umpire, gave perfect satisfaction, and there was no wranling over his decis- ions. He understands the game and appeared absolutely impart- ial.

over.
 WLile-ywe heard a Warren merchant boastfully proclaim that they got all the ball players that came over the short line railroad, which runs from Banks. on the Rock Island to Warren We do not believe that the good people of that city endorse any such "loose gab" or the ques tionable conduct of their base ball management.
 When the Southeastern Ark ansas League of base ball was organized, between the near by cities of Dermott, Monticello Wllmar and Warren, every true lover of clean, athletic sport had reason to expect that we would have a friendly contest of skill. unembittered by trickery or un derhand methods, and from now on we sincerely hope that such may prove the case. The Monti cello people have given the game their hearty and enthusiastic support, and it is but just and fair to them that their treat ment be decent and upright.
 While what we are saying, in this article, is somewhat in the spirit of just and merited criti- cism, it is written more in the interest of the success and vel fare of the ball league than oth- erwise; for it is an absolute certainty that if such conduct is continued, the League will break up or it's patronage will cease.

Are Eradicating Ticks.

That Ashley county is below the Texas Fever Tick quarantine line does not mean that there is no effort being made in this county to eradicate the ticks. Progressive cattle men know that the county will before long have to be cleaned up and they are working to that end ahead of the law. There are already four dipping vats in operation in the county, the Galloway vat near Hamburg, the Seigle vat at Berea, McCombs vat at Wilmot, and the Gates vat east of Cros- sett short distance. These vats are used not only by the men who own them but by many neigh bors as we'll, and there are now considerable areas in the county which are practically tick-free.
 County Demonstrator Fearing says that he knows of four more yats to be built soon. One of the new ones will be at Rolfe, one at Berea, and two at Foun- tain Hill.-Orossett Observer.

TIE following from the Fort Worth Records editorial column is interesting: "Some change is apparent within the past year in the condition of the United
 States. A year ago this coun- try owed five billions of dollars to the nations of Europe. They had loaned us that vast sum and had taken as security our Gov ernment railway, mining and in- dustrial bonds. European money had built our railways, erected our skysrapers, financed our mining deals and furnished the
 capital with which to carry on vast business enterprises from Maine to the Golden Gate.
 When the war storm broke, the holders of these securities want ed the cash for them. Scarcely any of them were due, yet under the stress of the terror of the war the owners sent them here for liquidation. We'll, in less than a year all these bonds have been taken. and now Europe owes us eight hundred and fifty millions of dollars, and by the close of the fiscal year Europe's debt to us will reach a billion. y

BASEBALL ETHICS.

It Is, according to our idea of base ball ethics, a very bad move for the Warren managers of it's team in the Southeastern Ball league to be continually in- terfering with the players em- ployed by Monticello. Such con- duet, on the part Of Warren will not prevent Monticello from winning out, since the country Is full of good ball players. and our city is able to get them. The first break that Warren made that smacked of discourtesy and wrong-doing, was to offer Daw- son, second baseman for Monti- cello, a substantial raise in his salary. Whether this was done to dissatisfy him, or with the hope of getting him from the Monticello team is problemati- cal. Under the rules, of course, Dawson could not play with Warren, unless released by our team; but our Board of Mana gers, in order to help the young man out, all they could, agreed to release him, and allow him to go to the Warren team, if he de- sired to do so. Whether he will play with Warren or not IS un- known to us at this writing.
 But this episode, though bad enough, was 8 mere bagatelle to the next move on the checker board of action by the Warren Management. Monticello's pitch CT, Chambers, having hurt his arm, 1t was thought necessary to secure another pitcher, at once, and Beasley, of Hope, was com muicated with by Phone. He made proposition, as to salary,
 which was accepted by our man. ager, and Beasley was wired to come atonce, in order to be here ready to pitch last Fridays game. He came by way of Warren, and having to stop over their be- tween trains, he was, in some way, induced to desert Monti- cello and join the Warren bunch, and when the Warren team ar rived here Friday morning to l play that evenings game, Beas- ley was with them, claiming to have contracted to join the War ren team, and to use his own language, felt that he twas un- der obligations to them, because they had paid him back his pas sage money from Hope to War ren. ; Beasley further informed the Board of Managers, here, that he fully apprised the War
 ren Management of the facts concerning his engagement with Monticello before entering into an agreement with the Warren outfit, and that they employed him, fully cognizant of all of the facts. President Judd, of the Southeastern League, when ap- pealed to, very promptly..inform- ed Beasley that he would play ball with Monticello or not at alll, and as he refused to do this he will either retrnce his steps back West orsremain "benched" with Warren until the season is

The Stenographic Art Has Again Been RevOluti0nized By Henry Edward Byrne, President Of Tyler Commercial College
 Of Tyler.
 Texas.

Some seventeen years ago, he invented system of Shorthand known as the Byrne Simplified. This system possessed such wonderful advantages that seven large editions of the book have been printed and there are now over 30, 900 writers of this fam ous system. The system was controlled in this section by the Tyler Commercial College and it did much toward making it the largest business training school i'll America. Recently Prof. Byrne applied the principles of this Shorthand system to the typewriter using the regular typewriter that is found in the ordinary business office, using the same type, but printing the characters in plain type instead of using crooked marks made with pencil. This is called Stenotypewriting. The Byrne Simpliled Shorthand was mas tered in half the time required of other systems, and Stenotype- writing is mastered in almost a month less time than the Byrne Shorthand. It can be written at higher rate of speed than Shorthand, can be read like print because it is print and IS so simple that a child can learn it, so thorough and complete that it will record anything ln the English language. It Is ab- solutely legible; there is no guess work in the reading. It Is capable of taking the most rapid speakers: it is truly the Steno- grapic marvel of the age. It not only means a saving of much time and eXspense to those who desire to become efficient steno- graphers, but it means better
 stenographic service for the business office. The stenograph-
 CT does not have to fool with tab
 let, pencil or crooked marks,
 but simply take the dictation on
 any ordinary typewriter and when the dictation is finished he begins transcribing on the same machine without removing the
 hands from the key board except to change the paper.
 The Tyler Commercial College will control the teaching of stenotypewriting in this section as it has the Byrne Simplltied Shorthand. Young people deslr
 ing to make expert office assist ants or to prepare to go into business for themselves, should write for catalogue of the Tyler Commercial College, read of the advantages they offer to energet- ic young people who desire to be-

 ographer, operator or secretary Their course of Business Admin istration and Finance embraces twelve heavy subjects calculat- ed to prepare young men and
