TARPON BASEBALL CLUB
AT TAMPA SATURDAY

The Tarpon Springs baseball club
went to Tampa Saturday and crossed
bats with a team Of crack players
travelling under the name Of the Oscar
Daniels team. The result of the game
was a score of 10 to 1 in favor of the
Tampa boys. Tarpon played ball.
1t was necessary to do this in ord ~
to make a score. The home boys held
the Tampaites pretty we'll until the
eighth when an error permitted the
latter to score runs.
According to the Tribune, Tarpon
played a fast and accurate game, not
withstanding the one-sided score,
which was due to the inability of the
visitors to hit the big-league pitching
of Cy Young. Only one of the Tarpon
players got further than second base.
This was w. Cause, who scored on
Northrop's hit to right center in the
ninth. The score by innings:
Tarpon .... 900 900 DOL 4
Tampa ...... OIL O21 OSLO IA
Our boys report good time and
speak highly of the Tampa bunch, 1t
is probable that a return game will
be played soon, but it may be necos-
sary to play it on the Clearwater
diamond as our home grounds are not
fit for the game. 1t seems a pity that
we have to go out of the city for a
place where visiting clubs may be in
vited to meet our own team in the
national game.

WILL ELFERS BEAT US TO 1T?

The Leader learns, on what seems to
be good authority, that the little town
of Elfers is to have a hard-surfaced
road to the gulf and that work will
begin at once. 1t is also planned to
dredge and make a bathing beach.
When, OH WHEN, will Tarpon
Springs wake up to it's possibilities
and necessities, and do these things
which it ought and can do? Tarpon
Springs is not yet on the gulf, but it
could be. When it puts itself on the
gulf it will be worth much as an adj
vertising point to tourists, to say
nothing of the direct benefit to our
own citizens.
Speaking of bridges, what would
be the matter with a bridge across
from Van Wrinkles point to Staley's
point? This bridge would be all in
side the city, and it would answer the
objections that have been brought
against bridge at the foot of Lemon
street or at the Gator dock, as both
of these projects would be partially
county affairs. A bridge across from
Van Wrinkles point to Staley's point
would be 45O feet long as against zoe
feet at Lemon street. An artistic ce-
ment bridge only $50 feet long would
cost no more than wooden bridge
Think this over.

Episcopal Church
Has Fund of Near
Eleven Millions
One of The Largest Pension
Granted to Any Corpor-
alton in The World.

New York, May 12.-The first an
nual report of the church pension fund
of the Episcopal church, issued today,
shows that the total resources of the
fund amount to $10,772,659.51. This
makes the church pension fund Que of
the half dozen largest pension grant
in corporations in the world.
In the first two years of the funds
operation, the Episcopal church paid
nearly $1,20O,0O0 for old age and dis
ability pensions for its clergymen and
their widows and orphans. This is the
amount Of assessments paid into the
fund by parishes and missions in the
United States and foreign fields since
! il started on March J., 1917.
1he cnurch originally subscri0ed $751;.
10000, to start the church pension
found and to insure pension protection
to clergymen already in Office. The
fund now embraces 5000 parishes and
missions and more than 5000 clergy
men.
OF the total resources Of the fund,
81 100000 has been invested by the
treasurer, J. Pierpont Morgan, in sec
ond, third and fourth liberty bonds.
The pension grants in force at the
end of the fiscal year covered by the
first annual report amount to $245,-
4650G. Mcneil Sayre, secretary and
manager Of the fund, points out in his
report that the assessments paid into
the fund during the first two years
were 98.6 per cent of all possible pay
ments. This, he says, is probably un
precedented in pension experience in
system where there is no legal COM
pulsion to pay the assessments.
The original subscription of $8,712,-
900 has been paid in to the extent of
S6,414,20963 The balance falls due
up to 1922. With the assessments the
total resources of the fund actually
on hand amount to S8,44418167.
Three million dollars has been set
aside to effect mergers with other
church relief funds in order to CEN
tralize this work and eliminate fur
Their demands upon the church for re-
lief for clergymen and their families.
