Statistics of the War.

We don't know to what extent
reliance may be placed in statis-
tics. But figures are interesting,
anyway.
The statisticians say that at the
present rate of the war Germany
will in August begin to show such
a weakening of forces that the
Teuton allies cannot much longer
maintain the long lines they are now
manning. 1t is said that the
German losses have been 2,200,0 90
in 81 months Of warfare. The net
loss, after considering the new
classes of youth enlisted, are declar-
ed to be 100000; and not much
reserve to be drawn upon in the
way of growing youth of military
age.
At the outset of the war it was
estimated that Germany was capa,
BILE of putting 100000 men into
the field. 1t is declared that there
are now in ranks 100000 men,
from the Central powers and a.,
600, 900 from the allies. Columbia

church, thus encouraging the young
people in their enterprise.

/. HARDY'S HAPPENINGS.
Refreshing Rains Fallen. Farm
Work Being Rushed. Com
4 mencement Great
Success.

We certainly hope those Texas
people have had as good seasons of
rain as Ne have been blessed with.
The wind blew hard all day Satur.
day and the clouds boiled and dis.
persed and came together again and
again. Finally the rain came down
slowly and gently where we were.
There was a good deal of electricity
allthe while though nearer night
and d3after midnight there was good
deal more lightning and thunder
andimore rain.
The peas are being sowed by the
quantity. Potatoes set, cotton chop
pediplowed and corn worked. Every
thing on the farm is on the rush
and will be for two months or more.
But then is there ever time when
there is nothing to do on farm?
We have lived in the country on the
same farm all cur lives and always
found more to be done than we>ever
got done.
We hear the commencement in
North Augusta was a grand success.
A certain young man who attended
said, all the graduate young ladies
were SO pretty from where he sat,
he could not decide which was the
prettiest. He would rather have a
closer inspection before he passed
hisopinion. But as he went this
wsYsto see one we have an idea he
has decided which was the prettiest,

Department. Large Audience Attended.

sented by DR.. Jones. The prize
which the D. A. R. offered was pre-
seuted to Miss Lallie Peak by the
Rev. A. L. Gunter.
Early in the session the Edgefeld
chapter, United Daughters of the
Confederacy, offered two prizes, one
for the best paper on the subject,
"Was Robert E. Lee a Traitor?:"
and second prize for the second
best paper. The first prize, $500
in gold, was won by Miss Margaret
May, and the second prize, a history
by Miss Mildred Rutherford, was
won by Miss Ouida Pattison.
The recital given Saturday night
by Miss Couch's music pupils was
highly creditable. Several selec-
tions were rendered by violin pupils
who had been taking lessons on this
difficult instrument but short time.
and yet they performed with re-
markable ease and grace. The pu-
pills on the piano, both the begin
ners and advanced pupils, played
beautifully, rejecting credit upon
themselves and their very capable
teacher. The following is the pro-
gramme in detail:

By associated Press

Chicago, ILL.,, June 10.-Tris Speaker
leads the American League batters

with Joe Jackson for the second place,
according to averages printed here to-
day. The old trio of Southerners who
have been fighting for leading honors

for Speaker is leading with 1853 and
Jackson and Cobb are neck and neck
with 1927. Speaker also leads in runs
scored with 80 and in total bases with
IS. Cobb is one of quartet leading
in base stealing; he. Schalk, Chicago,
Walsh, Philadelphia, and Sisler,

Veterans are setting the pace for
batters IN the National League. Dau-
bert maintains his lead and Schultz

JOHNSON DIsALLows PROTESTS
Special to the TeIeRrahh

Chicago, ILL.,. June 10.-President B.
r. Johnson, of the American League,
has sustained a decision of Umpire
Chill in the Boston Cleveland game
last Saturday which it was said to-day
established precedent for plays in
which an umpire interferes with a
hase runner. The decision of Chill,
against which Boston protested, was
that the runner return to his base. So
far as known, no similar case has
occurred in major league baseball and
is not covered by the rules. Turner,
after making hit, rounded first base
and collided with Chill twice. He then
stopped and walked to second base
where he was touched by the Boston
second baseman. He was called out
at first by the umpire, but after a con-
ference with Umpire Dineen the de-
cision was reversed and Turner was
allowed to return to first base. The
decision has received the sanction of
President Johnson and Boston's pro-
test was disallowed. President john
son also dismissed d Washington pro-
test against a home-run decision at
Detroit on Sunday which was covered
by ground rules. The official decision
allowed a home run on ball which
struck in the field and bounded over
the ropes into the hleachers.

AL. LAWSON QUITS ATLANTIC LEAGUE
WELIYs 4 CORNER

Failure on the part of a prospective
hacker to get in touch with Manager
George Cockill prevented a conference
with Lew Wachter at Wilkes Barre
yesterday. A meeting has been ar
ranged for to-day. If the New York
state League wants Harrisburg, a rea-
sonable proposition must be presented
to-day. The delays and uncertaintieu
in the opinion of local fans are not
very encouraging.
McCurdy, shortstop, for the Planning
Mill team of the Lucknow Shop
League, is a star. 1t is seldom he
misses hit in a game. His fielding
is fast and brilliant. Yesterday in
five innings he had one hit, one out
and two assists.

tional League. Yesterday. for the
second successive day. the entire
league was idle, and on Wednesday
only one of the four scheduled games
was played, that between Boston and

cept the clash between the White SoX

was the fifth straight postponement
for the Athletics. including the entire
series in Chicago, so that they will
have to play eleven games on their
next two trips to Chicago, seven play

strike, base on balls, a two-base hit
by Shatto and a hit by Felker, the

Mill in their half evened things up on
hits by Geary. Anderson, Hoover and
McCurdy, netting them enough to tie
the score. The Planning Mill also
scored one in the second and one in
the third. while the Federals were held
scoreless for the balance of the game.

Wires From Boston That He Is
Through With Baseball;
Businessmen Take Team
Special to the Telegraph

Reading, Pa, June 10.-Indications
point to the Atlantic Leagues early
demise. Rain has prevented profits,
Lawson quit yesterday.
e Local businessmen held meeting
last night and decided to take over
the Reading Atlantic League. No
trouble was experienced in getting
local capital to back the team when
1t was announced that Al w. Lawson,
owner of the club, had thrown up the
sponge.
Lawson left Reading last Sunday
and sent word from Boston that he
had decided to quit. Bills amounting
to about $500 had been contracted by
Lawson and the new owners will be
given the franchise by assuming this
debt. They gladly agreed to do this
as the Reading club has been playing
to paying crowds on the home
grounds.
Hank Ramsey, the local manager,
will be made president of the club by
the new owners. Ramsey is popular
with the Reading fans.

"Why do the bees collect their

In chalices of flowers?
Why do the ants with hurried, patient

Speed back and forth and tunnel

Why do the muskrats carry mud and

Far into the night and labor all the

To build their sturdy huts?

While autumn's sun is smiling Ger the

But winters heralding is near at hand
The corn-husk thicker grows.
The sturdy oak, who fears no cold nor

Sees coat of moss on his north-bark

Lest he shall feel the snows.

Why do the wild geese honk! And

OF feathered argonauts to southern

Percipitate their drives2
Why do the sheep put on an extra

Before Jack Frost arrives -
