h. N. G. c. DEFEAT ALEXANDRA
G. Go.

Last Wednesday night. Sept. 9th,
one OF the closest and most hotly con.
tested games of indoor baseball ever
played in Algiers was witnessed by
the largest crowd of fans seen in the
Holy Name gym.
The lone tally was scored BY N
Abbot, the first II. y. G. c. man I'D in
the first inning. He reached first ON
perfect bunt; reached second on D.
rori famous eight-inch safety; stole
third, and came in home on McGuire's
passed ball.
thereafter, neither side was able
to cross the pan, although several
times both teams threatened to do
so, but were prevented by sharp field.
ing.
The pitching of Amos TO. lie Al
hambra and Quinn for the II. y. G. c..
were one of the many features. Amos
striking out fourteen and allowing five
hits, while Quinn famed thirteen and
allowed but three hits.
Dan Ford. the best hitter of the
Junior League, with an average of
.545, proved his ability by getting two
safeties in three times up.
The star work of the Abbott twins
was also shining features. especially
that of Kirk, who in the sixth pulled
of a sensational double play unas-
sisted, thus cutting off a desperate
rally Of the Alhambras.
The all around good form shown
by the H. y. G. c. team shows what
the work of an expert like Coach Dow
ling can do with a bunch of raw re-
cruits.
The Alhambras put up a great bat
tie, although it must be said they ran
bases in a bewildering way; in their
next game which took place Wednes-
day, Sept. 18th, this was overcome I'M
der the watchful eye of Schroeder and
Mcclure, who are old heads at the
game
The friends of both clubs have been
invited to root for their respective
clubs and larger crowd than at the
first game is expected.

Old Uncle Tom awoke one morning,
greatly excited, and prone to tears.
He had dreamed a dream. wherein he

describing the present shade Of his

Carlyle on Humor.

Carlyle says humor is the finest
perfection Of pathetic genius, and
Thackeray calls it a combination of
love and Of wit. The magic sisters,
Philosophy and Science, analyze life
into several elemental colors of the
spectrum. Their humane brother,
Humor, mixes and mingles and syn
thesizes these seven elemental tints
into the glorious effulgence of life's
sunshine and into the rollicking sun
beams Of pleasure and Of joy from
the unassorted relations OF life that
middle and befuddfe the intellect.
Humor distills the pure joy Of living
and extracts the essence Of the truth
that the things that are" are better
than the things that are not" and
that the things that might be" could
not be half as good as the things
that are"

Joke Was on the Boss.

An office boy, sixteen years old, who
works in West Bottoms factory, was
invited by a friend, two years his
senior, to dine at a leading hotel the
other night. Just as the lad and his
companion were in the midst OF their
feast the manager OF the factory took
q seat at the next table. The manager
saw the boy and nodded to him.
The next day the manager told the
other factory executives that the ONCE
boy had dined at the hotel and they
decided to ask him about 1t. The boy
was summoned. Heard you were at
the Hotel Blank last night. What did
you eat?" was the question put to the
boy. Same as the manager had, 'cof.
fee and" was the Office boys reply,
as he left the room. The laugh was on
the boss.-Kansas City Star.

England in the middle of the

Kitty to reconcile intimate and life
long married friends between whom a
break is imminent on account of an

There is plenty of action, stirring

WOMEN AND FISHING

TINE Fish Commissioner of New
York State in the course of a
communication to the Legis-
lature the other day, gave voice to the
opinion that women are a negligible
factor so far as fishing is concerned"
Tut, tut, and again tut. The man
isn't qualified for his job. Women a
negligible factor in fishing, forsooth! +!
Why the very idea. Was the commits
sioner never a boy, and did he never
plan fishing trip on Saturday morn
ing only to find that his mother had a
prearranged program for whitewash-
ing the back fence or hoeing the gar
den? Or having gone, didn't he find
that the most enjoyable feature of the
days sport was the lunch mother
packed for him, eaten though it was
with fingers that had a distinct odor
of angleworms about them, from a
stone that served as a table and a seat
that was the dryest of several very
damp spots along the edge of the
creek?
Women a negligible factor in fish
ing?" Perhaps, so far as actual han
ding of the pole is concerned But
take it from one who knows. she wields
potent influence over many a fishing
party.

A Store Owned by Factory Hands
By Frederic ]. Haskin

A COOPERATIVE store that sells
~ to is patrons at ) per cent. less
- than any other store in the same
city, and pays dividends upon its stock
in addition. certainly deserves high
place on the long list of community
mercantile enterprises that have been
launched in recent years. The CO.
operative idea seems to be sweeping
the country; but of cooperative stores
only few have attained success.
The employees of a great cotton mill
at Columbia, South Carolina, are the
owners and operators of this par
ticular venture, and its present sue
cess crowns long list of instructive
failures.
The first cotton mills at Columbia
were built in 1895 by man named
Whaley, who was not only a manufac-
turer but a dreamer and a philan-
thropist. The mills he erected were
architectural masterpieces, and are
still among the most beautiful indus
trial buildings in the United States.
But his great purpose was to make
of his factories an ideal working place
for the poorer classes of white people
in South Carolina. lie took many
measures for the comfort and welfare
of his employees which have since been
