Cubs Play in Hard Luck In
Sundays Game,
PUEBLO TRIMMED
=, TWICE BY LA JUNTA
Two New Pitchers Signed with Locals
and Infielder Harwood Returns
La Junta Here Sunday

Tie usual baseball jinx that
has been with us this season still
hovers over the Rocky Ford
team and during the past week
the husky Fort Lyon sailors took
three in row from the Cubs.
Sundays game on the local
grounds was one of the most in
teresting of the season-a regular
$500 game before a 800 crowd
and the score was close up to the
ninth inning when the third lost
ball of the day gave the visitors
two more runs, making the final
score s to 5 in favor of the Fort.
Things looked good for the
locals before the game with four
new men on the team-Pitcher
Luby, who has been doing some
sensational twirling for Delta this
season and twice defeating the
mighty Boh McGraw, Stoltz a
southpaw formerly with Alamosa,
Minor Harwood back at second
base and old reliable Herb Love
of Las Animas on the bench, ready
to be used in case of pinch"
Stoltz was chosen to start the
game but the big southpaw got
off bad at the start, the visitors
making six runs in the first four
frames, and was replaced by
Perry Williams who pitched in
big league style for the balance of
the game, the only scores being
made while he was in the box
coming in the ninth when Gordon
hit a ball to the alfalfa which
should have been but a single but
WAS lost, scoring two runs and
cinching the game.
Peck WAS in the box for the
government crew and he was
"pecked" for 13 safeties and was
replaced by 10y in the eighth.
The Cubs outhit their opponents
but the bingles couldn't come
when most needed. Twice they
had the bases choked with good
batters up but sensational fielding
by the Sailors held down the
score.

and held his opponents to ) seated hits.
Hays of Saguache. was in the box for

Just as Fond of Monkeys.

The number of famous literary men
who are now serving in his majesty's
forces is so great that the happy idea
has been conceived of publishing a
book, the contributors to which are
all celebrated authors who have be-
come soldiers.
Among the long list of names to be
found in the volume, one of the best
known Is that of Mr.. A. e. w. Mason,
the novelist.
Formerly, Mr.. Mason was a member
Of parliament, and he tells of a man
who wrote certain M. P. asking for a
ticket Of admission to the gallery of
the house of commons.
The M p. wrote back saying that
he was very sorry that he could not
send the ticket because the gallery
was closed.
The next day, he was astonished to
receive from the stranger the follow
Ing note: "As the gallery is closed,
will you please send me six tickets for

LARGEST skatInu Rlnk.

The largest skating rink in Europe,
measuring about $4,000 square yards,
is at Davos, in the canton of the Gri-
sons, Switzerland, where all the great
international skating competitions
take place. It is generally open from
the third week in November until the
middle of March, and the climatic con-
ditions prevailing at that altitude Of
$500 feet are SO excellent that it is
indeed an exception when the rink has
ever to be closed during this period.
A considerable staff Of men is en-
ployed to maintain the rink in order
The ice is flooded every night, and is
scraped and polished in the morning
with almost the same care that glass
workers bestow upon plate glass.

Substitute Medicines.

The Pharmacological institute Of
Vienna is striving to find substitutes
for some of the drugs and medicines
of which there is now a serious short
age in Germany and Austria. 1t an
nounces a few Of these in the Wiener
Klinische Wochenschrift. Among
these are: a synthetic form of NOR
phia, called papaverin; phenolophtha-
lein and cascara, to take the place Of
castor oil, aloes, senna and jalap;
bromine, to take the place of iodine
as a skin disinfectant. Professor Unna
says also that there is likely to be a
shortage of glycerine and suggests
that it's properties can be initiated by
simple sirup or by four per cent cal
cium chloride or a mixture OF the two.
