STATE CHAMPS
GIVE DEFEAT
TO WESLEYAN
In the First Game Of the
Series by acne Sided
Score.

HUNTINGTON. April I'm a
comedy Of errors here Thursday after
noon, Wesleyan lost the first game Of
the Marshall series by the score Of
1874,
This is by far the worst game wes-
leyan has played on its trip and
the result is only partly accounted for
by the fact that the team Travelled
from 3 o'clock Thursday morning I'M
til O'Clock Thursday afternoon, the
game not getting started until almost
5 o'clock and lasting until almost 2
o'clock, in spite Of the severe cold.
The less said about the game the
better. Wesleyan got SUFFICIENT
number OF hits to win any ordinary
game, but bonehead base running lost
several runs, and the miserable work
of the infeld and outfeld as well as
the extremely ordinary pitching ex-
hibited by Thurman and johnson
more than OFFSET any number Of safe
blows that might have been accumu-
lated.
The one bright spot of Wesleyan's
play was the work Of Miller at third
base. He handled eight chances in
faultles- style and pulled both Thur
man and johnson out Of holes on var
ious occasions by brilliant plays
around the third corner.
The only redeeming feature in to-
days result is the fact that Wesleyan
rather expected to lose though Of
course not by such a one-sided score,
and the whole team is full Of conf

Plans Sales Agency.

The Board of Directors of the Mary.
land Tobacco Growers Association at
a meetingin Upper Marlburo, last week,
decided that now was the time to open
sales agency in Baltimore for the sale
of tobacco and other produce, and ap
pointed a committee, consisting of
Messrs R. Laurie Mitchell, Aquilla I.
Robinson, Frank CLANCY, Issac P.
Bowen and DR.. l.. B. Johnson, to sug
gest ways and means to that end. This
committee met at La Plata on We'd
nesday, and decided to recommend that
the Tobacco Growers Association issue
stock to the amount of $4,000, and to
confer with the State Board of Con
servation relative to securing sales room
in the State Tobacco Warehouse. The
stock will be issued in shares of $1,000
valuation, and it is expected that op-
| Grafton for the sale of tobacco only will
begin about February 1st, under the
| supervision of the Tobacco Growers
| Association.
1t is proposed to sell tobacco at g
| cost not exceeding $1.50 per hogshead,
and at the end of each fiscal year, after
the deducting of expenses of operation
TO distribute the surplus among the
shippers upon thea per hogshead basis.
One of the main objects of the move
ment is to give the Tobacco Grower
control of the marketing of his own
crop, like every other successful bust.
