says:
Beyond Tolmino the Italians have
dug themselves in on the 6,OO0-foot
summit of Monte Nero. whence their
guns are able to bring a converging fire
to bear upon the nearest Austrian
works.
After twelve days of vigorous Of
fensive they have bitten deeply and
firmly into Austrian territory along a
ragged broken line more than 100 miles
in extent. Conscious of the enormous
strategical value of Monte Nero, which
dominates the fortfcations of Plezz
and Predil on the north and the valley
Of the middle lsonzo on the south, the
Austrians are sowing the road TO
Trieste with trenches and barbed wire
entanglements. In this zone, too, the
Austrians are reported TO be massing
large numbers in readiness for the
great struggle the result of which may
decide the fate of Trieste and Austrla's
hold on the upper Adriatlc."

HASTINGS DEFEATS M.S.P.
BYARALLY IN NINTH INNING
The Results Of The First Crossing Of Bats With
Outside Team On The Prison Diamond Ends
In kidnapping The First Game Of The Season
From The N. s. P.

shall. Dixon followed with another
triple, scoring the man on third.
Cutler, the next Hastings man to be
heard from, popped an easy fly to
jose. at second. The next man
proved to be an easy one for Red,
and the last man bunted out to the
pitcher. Two hits-Two runs.
The M.S.P. went to bat with the
old do or die" expression. Fanny
the first to try his luck. found the
sphere all right, but so did Cutler out
in left field, much to Eanny's dis
gust. Wood, the next man up,
swung on the first offering, maxim a
nice single. while Tipperary who
followed him was walked. Then
Bergie one of our old veterans, pok-
ed out a double. scoring the two run
ners. Jose kept the good work up
by lining out a safe single; and Red
repeated his performance. bringing
in the two previous batters. Lovely
made nice double but the excite.
ment was over, as the boxman was
too much for the next two men up.
Five hits-Four runs.
When Shoulder connected with
the first ball offered him in the third,
it looked as if we were going to see
the visitors even-up the score-for
it was long drive to left field; but
by fast sprint, Lovely managed to
get under it. and our hearts beat
again. The next man made a safe
double and was advanced to the third
rubber by Young's sacrifice. and
scored on Marshall's two-bagger.
Their next man had three strikes
called on him before he knew it.
Two hits-One run.
The home team in their half had
the same luck. The first man up
was struck by the pitcher and was
given his base, but was later tagged
while trying to steal second. Wood
secured a free pass on balls, while
Tipperary made clean single, and
Bergie followed with nice safe one
for the initial sack, scoring Wood.
The next two met their Waterloo in
Babe to the tune of one-two-three.
Two hits-One run.
In the fourth inning, Dixon again
popped out fly to Bergie in right
field, but their next man up laid ou:
fine two-sacker. The next man
up tried a grounder but it was too
weak, as Wood sent it to first in
ample time. Hubley, who came next.
lined out nice double, scoring the
man from second; but Shoulders
bunt proved a failure, as it was
scooped up at first in short order
Two hits-One run.
Lovely lead off this inning again
for the NJ. S. P, and while he was
in splendid form in the field, his
battiug was off-color, as he again
failed to find the horsehide when it
crossed the plate. Harry, however,
dug into.the first Offering and rap
ped out a beauty that allowed him to
a half-circle of the diamond. Tro-
by, the next man up, made connect
tions; but, unfortunately. Shoulder
at third base did the same, proving
himself a good jumper. Fanny sing
led, and then tried to steal, but was
tagged; but not, however, until
Harry had scored. Two hits-One
run.
The M. S. P. made short work of
the visitors in the fifth. Red deliv-
cred three balls, all the batsman
driving out flies. Lovely caring for
two of them in left field. while the

Last Saturday the ball fans of the
institution witnessed one of the hard
est fought contests ever staged on
the local diamond. AS this was
the initial game of the season, the
fans hereabouts were all agog with
excitement to see what kind of a
team the Emespe's" were, and what
could be expected of them this sea-
son.
After Saturdays exhibition we
know that we have the material,
even tho we met defeat; for the op-
posing nine, who hail from the Asy-
lum at Hastings and which also is
considered to, be one of the strong
est ameteur teams in the state, only
succeeded in winning the game thru
a splendid rally in the ninth, and
by two errors Of Troby's. at center
field.
The Hastings nine lived up to
their reputation; and while they
were able to connect with Reds de-
livery fairly often. it proved 10 them
of little benefit; as our boys in both
the infield and garden pulled the
most of them down.
The etwo teams were about as even
ly matched as a sport-loving fan
could wish to see in contest; and
while the home team had lead from
the first score right up to the fatal
ninth, it was not at any time suffici-
ent to warrant any conclusion as to
the final outcome. While the CEN
ter fielder's error is most lamentable,
it was something that no one could
foresee, and doubtlessly he feels the
sting" of defeat more than any of
US; yet, the famous Snodgrass made
similar error a few years ago when
he was a member of the New York
Giants, and not only lost the game
for his team, but the honor of being
the Worlds Pennant holders.
Kman, one of our own boys, proved
to he q most efficient umpire and
gave entire satisfaction to both
teams.
The game was called at three
O'Clock sharp. F. Shoulder headed
the batting order for the visiting
team; but proved to be easy money
for Red, as he popped a short fly
which the boxman gathered in easily.
Schneaeh, the next batsman, let two
perfect strikes go by before he real
lied it, but he swung on the next
and hit out long fly that would have
meant double if Lovely had not
pulled it down. Next came Young
who waited calmly until two and two
had been called on him, then he lift
ed high one to right field, but
Bergie was right on the job. No
hits-No runs.
With Hastings in the field, the
M.S.P. Jared but little better. Lovely
faced Babe Shoulder first; and while
he waited the pitcher out until 80
had been called on him, he only
managed to shoot out an easy ground.
er to Young, at short. who caught
him before he could reach first.
Harry. the next batter, hit the first
ball pitched; but it in turn was only
a grounder and reached first just
ahead of the runner to make an out.
Troby came next, but Babes deliv-
cry was too much for him and he
failed to connect. No hits-No runs.
The second inning proved to be
the most interesting all around.
Marshall lead. and was given a walk.
Babe Shoulder came next and wait

ed to be three sacker, scoring Mar

1t seems rather strange, or even
unnatural, that two countries geo.
graphically so closely located to be
called direct neighbors, and both
using the same name, America" !"
only the little word North or South
as distinction, that the two coun-
tries have so little connections in
trade or commerce. Just a natural
instinct, being neigh6ors and bro
theirs in name only, should logically
throw them close together socially
and commercially as it is the worlds
custom and the hearts natural i'm
pulse, that if Pat meets Mike or
Fritz meets Louis to shake hands
and be friends and comrades and
form close relations in every day
life and business affairs.
Historical data will enlighten US
with the rather strange but true fact,
with positive proof, of only a spor-
adic commercial relationship be-
tween the United States and South
American republics. The reasons
why, and the direct cause of this
condition are the questions TO be
answered.
First of all, South America is
principally populated by emigrants
from Europe, and the capital for
the financial markets is furnished by
Europe and consequently makes it
the commercial European market.
The principle business undertakings
are in the hands of Europeans, the
banking faculties were created by
them. and you will hardly find any
large city whose banks are not con-
trolled either by England, France.
Germany or Italy. This is one of the
greatest obstacles to commercial
success by the United States, be-
cause all banking transact ions with
South America must go through
Europe, and all financiering has to
be done in European money mar
kets; and furthermore, the merchant
marine Of the world in carrying for
eign trade has been largely Euro
pean.
Our merchants and manufactur-
ers have plenty of territory here at
home to keep them busy in supply
ing the home market and satisfy
the domestic demand, and have suf-
icient ground to develop their
trade inside their own boundaries,
and if there is auy surplus stock,
the Orient or Europe has taken it.
At last, the little trade and the
limited commercial business that
was transacted has not been lucra-
tive enough and not worth while to
be looked after and the agents and
solicitors engaged to establish trade
did not seem to be resourceful for
reasons which at first thought SEEM
ed to be merely a trivial excuse, a
mere bagatelle, but by considering
the actual facts experienced by peo-
pie who know from personal obser-
vation we will be easily convinced
of sufficient reason for the small
percentage of commercial trade.
First of all of the lack Of study of
the characteristics of the South
nations by not complying
and merchandise to their To-
cal preference further in overlook
ing minor details in handling trade
like publishing and printing cata-
louges in the English language in
stead of the South American mother
tongue, by wanting a few changes

the demand of the customers fancy
