Buck" walked the first two men up
 in this inning. and when Hale laid down a perfect sacrifice 1t looked as though a run or two was the surest thing on the cards Then Weaver famed Grimes, but the suspense wasn't near over. as Carroll stuck his little finger in tke way of d pitch and went to first on It. Three Baron runners were on the jump when Magee flied to Hendryx. From then on Weaver was every bit a match for Grimes It was three up at l three down for the Barons during the tenth, eleventh and twelfth. In the thir- tecnth Sloan got a scratch, but vas quickly forced out. The old fox of the Pels' pitching staff had got into his element
 These two warmest of rivals play a double header here this Sunday after noon. The Barons probably will depend upon Johnson and either Robertson or Black for their pitching. It is barely possible that Elmer Brown, the New Pel hurler will make his debut Gudger and Bagby are more likely to be on the mound for the locals

nx WILL HAMILTON

New Orleans. June 26.-tSpecia1.) Featured by such long distance pitch ing as had not been witnessed here this season md intersperscd with bril- liant fielding plays that, as the game went into extrn innings, saved first one team and then the other from de- feat, the Peiicans md Birmingham Bnrons went IT innings to draw snt- urday afternoon. The score was 2-@ when Umpire Kerin decided that II was useless to try any longer to break the deadlock. which had endured from the sixth inning.
 Burleigh Grimes is number one in the gallery of celebrities that a game never fails to produce. Grimes was the Baron gunner in the first inning and in the thirteenth, and in the thirteenth he was firing away as effective as in the first, It cannot be said that he had one single let down during the entire game, for each of the two runs scored by the felicans were scored on two hits. Their first re- suited from clean two-base hit by Reilly in the fourth followed by an infield sac rifice by Coyle and a sacrifice fly by Pezold. Their second in the firth, was the result of a pass, the only unlnten- tional walk that he issued, stolen base and a Texas loaguer.

TRAP AND FIELD
BURLEIGH# CRIMES

trap to be pulled promptly. Very often, however it is the shooters own fault when the puller balks him in this way
 In giving the word of command to the puller to pull the trap, avoid three mis- takes.
 Don't call in a low, hesitating voice; otherwise you run the risk of the puller not hearing you; or if he does hear you the pull Is apt to be somewhat slow. Call in sharp, clear voice; the puler is watching you and is keyed up to pull inn mediately he gets the word; so that If you call in the manner suggested you in sort of way starte him and he in- stinctively pulls promptly.
 Don't call in too loud a voice, for the effort is quite liable to disturb your aim by exhausting the air in your lungs, caus- ing you to inhale when you should be doing nothing but pointing the gun al the target.
 Don't call immediately after the man ahead of you has fired. Give the referee time to call Dead" or Lost" as the case may be; and at tournaments give the scorer also time to answer back. II you call too quickly you run the risk of having the trap not loaded or having the referees decision or the scorers answer being mixed up with your voice.
 It is also a good plan not call pull when the shooter ahead of you has missed a target until the target has reached the ground. It might happen that your target took the same flight as the previous one. and thus your eye would be liable to see both targets and your calculations be disturbed. The same caution could profitably be observed when. although the previous target wal broken, a large piece was left sailing through the air. This may seem a smal matter, but small things count when yol are trying to make a straight score.

SOME DON'TS FOR
A Few Hints That Will Help the
 Beginner

Trap shooting is a sport that demands an alert mind and keen judgment The shooters degree of skill depends entirely upon his own ability to think and act quickly. No one else can do it for him. There are however few simple facts in the shape of "donts' that may be kept in mind by the novice.
 Don't worry if you miss a target. Get the next one and the following. Don't worry if when you call ''pull' the target breaks IS it leaves the trap. Take things calmly. Tell the puler to pull another and keep on doing it until a good one is thrown or wait until the trap is fixed.
 Don't worry because the referee decides you missed a target when you (and per- haps some of your friends also) thought that you had broken it. No referee is nfallible His decision, however, goes; so accept his ruling in a sportsmanike manner
 Don't worry if the puller pulls the trap too fast or too slow. Don't shoot at the target, but drop your gun from your shoulder and then get ready to call "pull'' once more. The referee watches the game very closely. He knows whether the target went an appreciable length of time before or after you called, and he also knows that the rules provide for a

BURLEIGH CRIMES
 IS PITCHING HERO

It is doubtful if such an exhibition ol control has been shown by any pitcher in the Southern league this season, and certainly more masterly game than Grimes has not been pitched, Four Of the seven hits were fairly clean, the other hits by grace of the doubt that attended them From the time that he struck out Tim Hendryx the first man to face hlm the Pels' batting lion who was most ef- feetually tanned. Grimes was marvel of coolness never waverng, never doubt ful of his own ability to delivers confident in his support. He made no attempt Tor strike out record. but he famed the last man who faced him. well as the first; in fact in the thirteenth inning he tanned two of the three Pels who made the trip to the plate.
 The twirlins served up by the New Orleans boxmen was almost as gooc, and more specacular at times, thoueh h less remarkable from the fact that two took their turns against Crimes Top Boy" smith in whom Molesworth could see only pop-boy when he sold cooling drinks in the Birmingham stands, was the first candidate of the Pels, and for four innings he deprived the Barons of a hit, and until the sixth gave every promise of working out great ganle Suddenly the mysterious stuff" he had on the ball vanished.

Talladega, June 26.-(Special,)- ,)-Tal la dega made it three straights from Rome by winning today's game, 2 to B. The game was a farce from beginning to end Talladega making runs every inning, bat ting at will, and also scoring at will. The features of the game was the batting of the whole Talladega team, which made 22 hits. Every man on the team got a hit. This is the severest drubbing that the Romans have gotten this season and they deserved it. The box score will tell how this happened.

 Most persons, if asked which we use the more of, salt or sugar would probably say sugar, but the statistics at Washington figure that the per capita con- sumption of salt in the United States last year was almost exactly 100 pounds, and of sugar S9.14. The statement is, how ever, somewhat misleading. No person could eat two pounds of salt a week. and expect to live. Much that is set down to the per capita consumption is really used in curing meat and fish that later on are exported. and in making pickles and freezing ice cream. We consume more ce cream than all the rest of the world put together.

 Those desiring good insurance at a reasonable rate should see some of the Woodmen and get their applications in with this large class. Besides the safe, cheap insurance the social fea- ture is a fine part. The Wood men are thick throughout the state and growing very rapidly. There are nearly one hundred members of the Ozark lodge and about forty at Webb City. Every town in this section has a lodge. Now is the time to get in with a live bunch and get in- surance to protect your family.
