MAJORSVILLE COPS HAVE HARD TIME IN
 BASEBALL PRACTICE

Moran to O'Neil to Rosenpenny to Halpin, does not stand for. the names of those who took part in triple play but for the manner in which the four suffered injuries Friday at Sea- side park when the Majersville nine was holding a practice. Had it not been for the commands of Trainer Jimmy Halpin the injured list names added to it.
 Sergeant O'Neil was cavorting about the third bag while Moran was at the bat. The latter connected with one of Yellow Whites offerings. sending 1t on the ground toward the third bag. As the sergeant ran in to get the ball, it struck small rock that Groundkeeper Tom Keegan had fail ed to remove with the result that one of the sergeant's eyes bears black ring beneath it.
 After a short while, during which the trainer dressed the injured optic, O'Neil took up the cudgel and hit a high fly toward center field. Rosen- penny was busy looking at fair young .damsel who was fitting across the outfield and paid no attention to the descending horeshide, which struck him squarely on the shoulder.
 Arnica was copiously applied by Trainer Halpin and soon Rosenpenny was able to take his turn at bat. .sWiggles'' Halpin was doing the re- ceiving and a foul from Rosenpennys bat caught him on the knee cap. A snake dance by "Wiggy" and more arnica by his namesake, served to al- leviate the pain and ''Wiggy" eager for revenge, took up the willow and sowed someone would suffer.
 k To make the complete round of the quartet, he smashed one down be- tween short and third, where Moran was now stationed. The stone which caused, O'Neil to receive a "shiner" had evidently moved, for the ball bounced and the next moment, restor- atives were being applied to Moran. A large lump on the top of his head served to show where the ball struck.
 His first aid kit depleted, and un- willing to see any more of his players hurt, Trainer ,Halpin ordered the men to quit practice. However, he stated today that all of the four on the in- iured list are responding to treatment and will be in first class shape this Saturday when the Majorsville team crosses bats with the Tigerstown Tigers at Pleasure Beach. A hand some silver cup and the championship of the police department is the goal both teams will strive for at the field day of the Police Sick Benefit asso- ciatiou,

WILSON OF
 THE CARDINALS

Owen Wilson, the Cardinal out fielder, belongs to the numerous Texas contingent now under the main tent of balldom, having been born in Aus tin thirty-three years ago today. It was back in 1905 that he made his de- but in ther Texas League, and after being shuffled about by several clubs he landed a regular job with Fort Worth. Little Rock got him in 1907, but turned him over to Des Moines, and it was from the Iowa capital that the Pirates grabbed him in 1908. Will son remained with the Buccaneers un- til the close of the 1913 season, figuring in the 1909 worlds series. The Cards got him in trade in 1914. The big Texans best years with the stick were
 1911 and 1912. when he batted an even
 300 for the Pirates.

THE ERROR RECORD

The record for numerous errors in a big league game has stood thirty three years, as it was hung up on August 21. 1883, by Pitcher Hagan and Catcher Gross of the Quakers, in a game with the Providence Grays then in the National League. The Quakers, under the, management ot Bob Ferguson, were new to the Ma tional circuit, and they had some hard sledding. On the day in question Ferguson sent Arthur. Hagan into the box, while another youngster, Gross was behind the bat. The Grays fell on Hagan's delivery hammer and tongs, and batted out seven runs in the first chapter. Providence scored in every inning thereafter except one making a total of twenty-eight runs while the Quakers were shtu out Ferguson's club made twenty-seven errors, and of this number eleven were chalked up against Hagan and eight against Gross. making nineteen mis- cues pulled off by the battery. This record has never been equalled under the big top, and, it is likely to stand for all time.

STATE PRISON RESURRECTION.


 Boston. Aug. 21-Last evening, about o'clock. a desperate attempt was made by the convicts of the state prison to escape Seizing ladder used in erecting . new building with in the prison yards, and applying it to the wall. they began to ascend. The guards on the wall. after proper warning and ordering them to 'desist, commenced fire upon them. In defiance. however. of this attack of the guards. they continued to ascend and leaped from the wall to the number of about 25. When clear of the wall they took different directions.
 The firing and the alarm bell, soon brought the citizens of the neigh bor- hood to the scene, and by their spir- tied and uncommonly active exertion, with that of the officers of the prison. In about an hour they were all back to the prison. excepting Nathaniel Marston and Joseph Betts. Eleven of the convicts were wounded. two of them dangerously.

A LAttIe hot.

So you do not like the hot weather. Well, there is no reason why you should tolerate 1t all the time. We take it for granted that you will be able to- spare at least one-half day from your business or household, for you can certainly spend a delightful half day, returning to the drudgery of business well equipped for the tolls that you may find staring you in the face. One of the most interesting trips that is available is the one to Port Jefferson. N. Y. The steamer Park City leaves the wharf at the foot of Fairfield avenue at 1:3O D. m. If is just an hour and thirty minutes sail on the Sound. The boat leaves Port Jefferson on the return trip at 4:30, arriving in Bridgeport at 6 D. m. The time will go by only too quickly!
