the day.
But in due time the growth of Gal

merly poorly patronizea road. The
Santa Fe took it over and rebuilt it.

Fair at Rocky Ford Sept. tos.

Despite the fact that the Rocky
Ford baseball team is out of the run
ming the Arkansas Valley Fair asso-
citation, at meeting early this week
decided that the stellar attraction Of
last year-a base ball tournament
would be a great drawing card for the
silver anniversary, so they have de-
cided to hold a baseball tournament in
which the four clubs of hte Arkansas
Valley League will participate. The
games this year will be played on
Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday
two games on each of the afternoons
if this arrangement can be made with
the teams.
In place Of so many platform at
fractions, which are to be seen at any
time at the vaudeville houses there will
be added a number of track events in

stunts that have ever been staged in
this part of the state and which will
include bucking contests with horses,
mules and steers, girls as well as

who are expected to camp on the
grounds during the fair and will stage

"You see it was this way: An engine
and its cars started from Beaumont,
Texas, on the old Gulf 4 Interstate
Railway, now forming this branch of
the Santa Fe. 1t was headed for
Port Boliver, just across the bay from
Galveston. The start was made at
1880 on the morning Of September s,

one miles. As the schedule maker
had no idea that the engine was going
to average only ten miles a year, he

Well the rain ran along about
thirty miles on schedule time. But
when it reached High Island the town
was found to be wet. Prohibition was
not involved, however. The moist

Of Mexico. Said gulf unconcernedly
had strayed many miles inland. As a
result the road was out Of sight, in the
tull sense of the word. This thrush
of the sea was caused by that historic
Galveston storm that moved the city
in divers directions. Roofs flew on
as II they were jack-in-the-box COW

buildings went exploring the interior
of the state. 1t was this storm that
blew the ocean out of place.

CLEAN THAT DRESS WITH CAR
BON TETRACHLORIDE
Unlike GasOline-Is Good Fat
Solvent.

While gasoline is, as most Of us
know, a cheap and effective clean
ing agent it has one great disadvan-
tage. 1t is extremely volatile, and
its vapors form, with air, an explosive
mixture. On no account, then, must
it be used in room containing a
flame of any kind. There is, how
ever, another cleaning agent, more
expensive than gasoline, it is true,
which is absolutely non-inflammable
This is carbon tetrachloride, a sub
stance but little known as such, but
often sold under such trade names as
Aolval Eradeline, Antifammen, etc
This substance is, like gasoline. a
fat solvent, and cleans by dissolving
out the grease which mechanically
holds dirt in the fabric. Carbon tet-
rgchloridc has another advantage
over gasoline; it spreads less readily
and for that reason is less liable to
form a ring when grease spots are
removed by sponging-Evelyn G.

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, N. Y,
June 21.-IIere, where the pines are fra

Frank Moran is going through the final
stunts in preparation for his fight with
Jack Dillon 1O-round affair, scheduled to
take place in the open air in Brooklyn on
June 20.
Moran Is living the life of a rustic. Fish
ing, canoeing and swimming constitute a
large part of his conditioning program As
often as he can he journeys over to
neighborng farms and lends the folks a
bit of his strength in powng or doing other
chores.
Moran each evening boxes from four to
six rounds with his sparring partners,
Frank Kendall and Zulu Kid. in addition
to working the pulleys, punching the bag and
similar muscle-produclng tricks.
"Dnlon is being quoted as saying that
he's going to knock you out" the Pitts

Moran grinned.
"Thats what Willard said-and Johnson,
too" he replied Il don't doubt that Dillon
Is going to try to knock me out. But he
isn't going TO do it, If I know anything
about it. He's a tough bird. Some folks
belittle him. 1 don't. l respect his fighting

Brother Stars
Baseball has known one or two instances
where brothers were enlisted as major
league pitchers.
But the Coveeslsle family carries more
pitching talent than any other now chart

so far has won nine games and dropped but
two Stanley Coveleske, the Cleveland
member. has won and lost four Between
them the record is Is victories against six
defeats. with a percentage yield only n
shade below 800, undoubtedly the best
pitching record that any two brothers ever
achieved.
The Syracuse Stymie
Glory is shifting institution. There
were seasons in long array where Cornell
triumphed on the water and the track,
only to buckle up upon the gridiron
Through this last year the Ithacan de-
tachment ruled the gridron and maintained
its supremacy on the track. But with
rise in one direction came a drop from
the old rulership of the water. The SYRIA
cuse stymie now has come twice between
Cornell and a clean sweep on both land
and water. Syracuse has invaded 1thacan
glory at it's strongest point. CornelPs glory,
taking in her seasons work at all sports, is
greater than ever. Syracuse merely has pre-
vented an overwhelming triumph.
The Double Barrier
As a big average at this season of the
Jubilee, Cobb either has been we'll in the
lead or has had but one man to beat out.
Today he is not only we'll behind, but he
has at least two stars to overhaul. Speaker
has fought his way on beyond $3.50, while
Joe Jackson has moved up around $40.
With Ty still below $780, the job he now
faces is the toughest one of his career.
There is the chance that Speaker and
Jackson might slump, but no great chance
that both will slump. One of the two is
fairly certain of maintaining a swift spring
most of the way 1t has taken $40 or
better to lead the American League for sew

of extending his reign to a ten-year stretch

This wonderful fielding ability and quick
ness enabled Dodge to play closer to the
