BY ID. H. Vinet.


The fast Walk Over team Of New
Orleans, headed by those dashing lit
tie devils, sid" Moore and Link
Stickney, were defeated last Sunday
by the shipbuilders to the tune Of
A to l.
The visiting team started off in
grand style but the great defense
work of the locals kept them from
scoring until the very last inning
Rohers, the new moundsman for
Madisonville, was touched for nine
hits during the game, but he kept
them well scattered throughout the
nine innings of play. The game in
detail follows: Moore, first man up
for the visitors, singled to right, was
forced at second by Dittman, Dit
man was forced at second by Del
corpio, Gerber singled, Delcorpio go
ing to second, Kraft went out when
Dendinger made a one-hand catch
which was line drive for left CEN
ter. The locals went out in their
half of the first in one, two, three
order, Maumus handling all three of
the chances, Gerber getting the put
out. Eos led off for the visitors in
the second, went out from pitcher to
first. Maumus singled, Levy singled,
Maumus held at second. Mathis ont
from pitcher to first, Maumus max
ing the third out on the attempt to
steal third. The locals scored their
first run in second when Cohn was
hit, stole second, went to third AM
held there when Dendinger hit to
left field. Dendinger was thrown out
when he tried to stretch his hit to
two bases. Cohn scored when Pei
loat's bunt was handled badly by
Maumus. Rohrers hit into a double
play, line drive to Gerber, who
doubled Pelloat up unassisted. In
the third Moore for the visitors went
out from second to first. Dittman
from third to first. Delcorpio last

that he had enough and gave way TO
Gerber. Gerber attempted to catch

probably keep him out of the game

The Game Last Sunday.

Inc Creoles, of New Orleans, came
over and received a severe drubbing
at the hands of the Covington boys.
In the first inning Covington put over
two runs. In the fifth inning they
hit their stride and put over five
more. In this inning, with two men
on base, Southerlin stepped up and
picked a good one which he lifted
on r left field fence. In the seventh
CoVington scored two more, again
SCutherlin picking a nice, juicy one
and boosting it over the fence for
his second home run. At this time
the fans began calling for collec-
ton for Southerlin, and when the hat
was passed dimes, quarters, halves
and dollars fairly rained into it. A
neat sum was presented to sSouther-
lin. And about the Creoles-Well,
they were not in the class with the
local boys. If the Covington team
expects to keep up and increase the
attendance at the games they will
have to pick better teams.
seventh and eighth, both teams went
out almost in order. In their half
of the ninth the Walk Overs scored
their lone run, when Gerber, 1rst up,
hit for three bases, was held on third
when Kraft went out from pitcher to
first and scored on Eos single. Maui
mus was out from third to first. Eos
made last out when he attempted to
steal third, this play Kohn to Koepp.
.Madisonville has secured a game
for Sunday, June 10Th, with the
crack Beanville team of New Or
leans. This team is reputed to be
one of the strongest semi-pro. teams
of the Crescent City and will I'M
doubtedly prove to be the most hotly
contested game Of the season.

For a brief moment katherine stared
at the man, too astoundcd. and vastly
too Indignant to reply. His attitude
was as amazing as it was intOlerable
and the fact that he offered no attempt

against him was inexplicable-save only
that he doubtless comprehended the use =
lesSncss of denial.
Argument with him was out Of the
question. She had taken him to the
summer house beyond the lawn to, tell
him quietly of what she had seen. be-
lirving that he would stink away after

out her hearing him. Wouldn't it be
fun to have it stop for us and carry
us miles and miles away?'
'Into a thrilling adventure :" added
Peggy
''Waw- 90 Ooo," sounded the auto,
now very near. and right on top OF its
shrek came another shrek of diff

Get out in the road. Billy Belgium!
Hoo! Hoo! Too. Too
'That's Judge Owl. He is in the

by the hand. he drew her out into the
road.
Around curve flashed two glaring
lights and huge motorcar came tearing
toward them. They were at the side
of the road and seemed in no danger,
but suddenly the auto hit bad spot
in the highway. swerved quickly and
plunged straight at them.
Billy tried to jerk Peggy out of the
way, but she fell right in the path of
the roaring machine.
''Whee e. ee zee :" roared powerful
brakes. and the auto, rearing like a
suddenly checked runaway horse, came
to stop so close that one wheel caught
Peggy's dress.
Gracious me It's Peggy and Billy!
Hop right in shouted a voice as
Billy pulled Peggy free from the wheel,
and there was the Prince of Dollars
looking down at them.
Peggy and Billy, though shaking a
! bit from the narrOwness of their escape,
didn't need a second invitation. They
ran around to the door of the auto and
climbed in. Whiririririr. purred the
engine, and away they went SO fast
they could scarcely see the trees along
the road.
I'm going to search the whole world
over for my lost mermaid" shouted the
Prince of Dollars to them. 'I'n climb
mountains I'll drive through rivers;
I'll dash into fire to find her and make
her mine.
'Hoo! Hoo. You speak true. All
that you'll do, and lots more, too!'
Peggy and Billy looked around. Theirs
was Judge Owl clinging to the back Of
the seat and looking very solemn.
