DOG DESERTS HIM FOR
WIFE SEEKING DIVORCE

Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. ia bit
of humor was injected into the Cowles
divorce case when the family's pet
collie, Rex, left his master for his
mistress. Mrs. Florence j. COwles,
of Breekline, while here for a consul
tation with her attorneys. met the dog
in passing a hotel. She called to him
and in a jiffy he recognized her and
>iumped into the machine. She hustled
Rex to the railroad station and had
him checked for the baggage car OF
the same train she was to ride on
and he is now with his playmates, the
two children, Harriet and Mary, at
Brookline. "u t
When Mrs. Cowles filed her suit for
divorce last February she took the
dog as we'll as the children to the
home of her father. DR.. Cowles pro
tested in the case of both, but only
gained possession of the dog.

is FOUND BY ACCIDENT

Jacksonville, Mich, Aug 13.-When
Thomas H. H. Sestel, pioneer resident
of Fillmore township, died on May 80
there began search for a will dis
posing of his estate, which is valued
at upwards of $4,000

the men who signed as witnesses tes-
titled to the existence of such a docu-
ment, but a search failed to reveal

according to their rights by birth.
AS a probate judge was about to
take this step one of the dead mans
great-granddaughte was busy aiding
in giving the home of Mr.. Sestel a
thorough cleaning. She found an old
pair of carpet slippers, frayed and
torn. AS she threw the slippers away

FEEL LIKE SNEEZlNG?
CHEW ON GINGER ROOT

Philadelphia, Aug. 13.-Nature sus-
pected that woodland rovers would
want to pluck this beautiful flower, so
she hid it. Concealed beneath two
large heart.shaped leaves of the plant,
which grows in Pennsylvania noun
.tains, you'll find a deep purple bios
som hanging like a copper-cast bell
from a belfry. They call it the wild
ginger.
Once you have seen the blossom,
you'll understand why nature suspect
ed you would want to pluck it. There
is a single flower to each plant.
The wild flower gets its name from
its root-it tastes like ginger. Herb
doctors used to say that the root will
cure colds. That's why you'll find
mountain jewellers, many of them,
carrying a piece of dried root of the
wild ginger in their pockets. At the
first warning sneeze-be will pull the
root from his pocket and begin to
chew it, and, presto, the cold is gone.
At least, the root-chewer thinks his
cold is gone, which may or may not
amount to the same thing.

THE opportunities for sheep breed
ing and sheep raising in South Mis-

citizens" Mr.. Marshall said. "YOu
have the land, the vegetation, the eli
mate, and everything for growing
sheep. All that is necessary is for
some one to take the initial move, and
the others will follow. There is great
money in sheep, especially those OF
the better breed. l don't know Of a
section more adaptable for sheep
growing than this section"

Appearing at the Lomo Saturday is
"The Outlaws Revenge" in the dawn
of new republic, a Mutual master
piece. A melodrama of sentiment and
adventure Mexico-the land of rev.
Olution-of fierce loves and fiercer
hates-is the scene of this romance
of real life in that region below the
Rio Grande. Through the shifting
pictures there moves the figure of
THE Outlaws" a soldierly type, for
the play is drawn from a tragedy in
the early life of a famous Mexican
general, when he was chief of band
army. There are big battle scenes
with real Mexican soldiers. And the
stirring events that had to do with
the dawn of a new republic are pic
tured with startling vividness, for
they were not only taken in Mexico,
but the camera-man actually risked
his life on the firing line that he
might get some real scenes of terrific
fighting in the field and in the trench
es. THE Outlaw" is acted by care
fully chosen company. 1t is educa-
tional it tells the truth about Mexico"
and the actual conditions there.

TEN MORE GAMES IN
LEAGUE THIS SEASON
LUMBERMEN MUST DEFEND
THEIR LEAD 7 TIMES TO WIN
y THE REMNANT.

Interest in the closing days of the
season of the City Baseball League is
increasing, and the announcement
that there will be but ten more games
before the curtain is lowered on the
1915 season, will bring out big crowds
TO witness the remaining contests.
OF the remaining ten games the
Lnmbermen must defend their lead
seven times. The Bankers have sew
en- chances to break out of the cellar
and the Transportation boys have six
chances to become league leaders.
Bv reference to the figures below it
will be seen that the Lnmbermen
have a lead of 21a games on the Bank
ers, the tailenders. They face the
Bankers four times and the Bankers
say that they are going to win them
all and to prove it they offer the
score of the last two games played
with the Lumbermen. If they do this
they will go into the lead, leaving the
Transportation boys out of the reck-
oning, but the transportation boys
say that they are not to be left out by
any means.
The Transportation boys say that
Willie Semmes, their star pitcher is
lust hitting his stride, having won the
last two games pitched and has a
large disposition to win some more
Then, too, there's MoOrehead as star
hitting outfield just signed up and this
together with the fact that the whole
team is just hitting their stride all
goes to prove that they are going to
be the league leaders and sport the
Bunting for the next season.
The Lumbermen say that this dope
is wrong While it is true that they
have lost the last three games played,
they were only in a little slump and
that the style of ball played Saturday
proves that the slump is over and that
they will move more than hold their
own for the balance of the season.

A great game will be played Satur-
day. The Bankers oppose the Trans
portation boys. There is a rumor on
the streets that the Railroaders have
offered Dutch Limbaugh a pass to
San Francisco. but when seen about
It Dutch said that he would be in the
game Saturday with a big stick.
Holmes will be on the mound for
the Bankers and either Cook or Sem
mes for the Transportation boys and
with this ideal weather a great game

DcSpOndent, Man Suicides.

Cordele, Ga, Aug. 21.-Placing
the muzzle Of revolver in his mouth
and sending a bullet through his
brain. ID. w. Titshaw, aged SIS years,
well-known citizen Of Cordele, COM
mitted suicide tonight shortly after
e O'Clock. The tragedy occurred on
the sidewalk in a prominent resi-
dence section.
Dependency because of failure to
earn livelihood is attributed as the
cause OF Titshaw's act. He had been
resident Of Cordele several years,
coming here as a salesman for
mercantile firm. During the past
year he had acted as an agent, SELL
ing novelties and different articles of
merchandise. 1t appears that he
earned a meager livelihood from the
sale of these articles, and when he
was overtaken with sickness several
weeks ago his financial condition be-
came critical, though he was too
proud to beg.
