STEEL LRAGUERS
PLAY FORE RIVER

Everything is in readiness for the big
game tomorrow afternoon at Harlan
baseball park. "over the bridge" be-
tween tho Pusey & Jones team and Bill
Gallasher's Gallopers. The p. & ].
crowd. 1t is said. have made ready for
the fray by bOlsterins up their team
and they are backing on giving the
Bethlehem crowd a rude Jolt.
While all this has been going on. Bill
Gallagher has not been asleep. He is
going to put bunch OF ball players
on the fleld tomorrow that he believes
viii very ably represent tho interests
back OF them. So the rest Is left 10
the teams and Bill MoGowan. Bill Is
going to umpire the Harlan-Pusey &
Jones contests and no squarer or more
popular arbiter ever stepped into shoes
In this city.
While the local teams are wrestling
for honors, the big Steel League team
at Harlans will be trying conclusions
again with Fore River, at Fore River.
Mass. And It's not going to be any easy
pickings for Fred Payne, either. With
Dutch Leonard and a host Of other
players OF big league ability, the New
England crowd think they have about
got Harlan's measure, and the fray is
likely to be one worth going miles to
witness.
Nickerson, the outnelder, was out for
practice yesterday. He has been keep
ing In pretty good trim down at Camp
Meade and ought 10 be able to III in.
in case Of emergency, with credit 10
himself and Hsrlans. The training at
Camp Meade, he says. was much more
strenuous than ball playing ever was
and has helped him in many ways.
Manager Gallagher is busy lining up
a schedule OF stlff teams for his team
after the season closes in the Della
ware River on August 10. Bill has many
offers TO travel, but he wants to MI
in every date at home that is not taken
by the Steel League team. He has his
ear to the ground and promises the.
fans not TO permit a ringer, so far as
he knows TO contract for a game with
his aggregation.

Nature
Wonderful


US-I, MYSELF, ME, M0RTALS.
Yknow. us folks on
This turn OF the world
Are handicapped hand and
Foot with the malady OF
SELF consciousness so
Tough we've got our
Self-centered selves up
A one-way tree. Every day
We play the self-conscious
Concert, we go up a twig
Higher TIL we reach the
Top, then bingo, we're
The Joker card Of the deck.
F'rinstance, when we steer
Ourselves into a "grabateria-
Restaurant for chow, we
Play a sweet chord Of self
Consciousness on our old
Mind accordion. AS we so
Down the line picking up
The eating tools, plates,
And feed, kid self-us, starts
On the rampant. We think all
Eyes are focused on us. We
Try to force, acting natural
And that, being at home,
Feeling. and the scream
Comes when we ankle around
The acres. and acres Of
Floor space, 1t seems, looking
For a table. We got ourselves
Feeling like a perch out OF
Water, and we try 10 put on
Aphony monchalant soft
Whistle, as our mind is
Entertaining the thoughts OF,
Gosh, suppose / trip, or
Drop the tray, or the bowl
OF soup slides Off on
Someone's head" etc.
And when we do get seated,
Usually at a table with
A couple OF glddy girls.
We're so ratified we can't
Chauffeur the food faceward,
Through fearing we'll drop
In our vest. And nobody
Started It all but just self-us.

BLUNDERs HURT SOLDIERS.

WASHINGTON. July i2.-Attention Of
commanding officers is directed in an
official memorandum issued by the War
Department, to the injustice which is
being done TO many discharged soldiers
through the carelesncss Of officers in
making out the discharge.
Army regulations require the use OF
one form when a soldiers record has
been such that his application for re-
enlistment would not be considered,
while another form must be used in
discharges for disability Numerous In
stances have come to light, it is said, in
which officers have made out dis
charges for men with long and faithful
service on the former blank.
