MARYSVILLE
Proves Second Rate And
Barre Is Angry
independents Of Columbus, Here On
Wednesday and Sunday, Guar
anteed To Be Good
Nine

Although the score turned out 10
to for the locals over their oppo-
nents, Marysville, in the baseball
game Sunday here, Manager Barre
is very bitter toward the Marysville
manager on account of the team he
sent here.
The Marysville pitcher was up to
scratch, but the remainder of the
men were not the advertised team,
according to Barre, and under the
circumstances the large crowd of
spectators did not see the game they
expected to witness.
The games scheduled with the In
dependents of Columbus Wednesday
and Sunday, Manager Barre guaran-
tees to be far different from the one
of Sunday. The Independents will
bring with them Ray Daving, a
twirler who, in the last three games
he has played, has allowed only nine
hits and no bases on balls. This is
an excellent record and the games
will be worth seeing.

The Code Of Honor,

Dueling is survival from the ancient
judicial combats which were at their
height in the middle ages. The first
formal duel among English speaking
peoples was in 1906. France seems TO
have been the land In which the "code''
had its most fiourishing times. From
France the practice passed over to Eng-
land, and from England it came over
70 America. In the early days Of ow
country duels We're quite common, bot
since Burr killed Hamilton the practies
steadily declined. 1t is today very
rare thing for duel to take place IN anS
Civilized land, and In the United 0eates
the foolish custom In really exttAet.-

SHINY NOSES IN PARIS.
Now French Food Regulations Prohibit
Zee of Rice In Powder.

New regulations prohibiting the d.
verting OF any foodstuffs for other use
than rations Is causing a tremendous
stir among Paris women, because 1t
prevents the manufacture of face pow
der from rice. Frenchwomen face an
epoch of shiny noses, since 1t Is pro-
hibited TO import luxuries and the ex-
istlng supplies are light. Many French
women already have started laying In
supplies, and many shops are sold out
and prices have been raised In such
as have any for sale.
1t is estimated that there are 20,
100000 women in France, and 10 pei
cent Of them use powder, averaging
two grams daily. In 100000 grams
Of rice face powder there are 8,00
kilograms OF rice. A ration amounts
