4 LEGACY or IGNORANCE.

Clock dials usually represent the
hours by use OF Roman numerals, but
there is one curious variation. The
number four in Roman numerals is
commonly represented by ~, but ON
most clock dials it is made up OF four
l's-lIII. There is, according to the
Argonaut, a curious reason for this. 1t
goes back to the ignorance of a King
of France who ruled six hundred years
ago.
Tradition among watch and clock
makers has it that the clock dial was
first made by Henry Wick in the year
1870, and he made it for Charles V, or
Charles the Wise, of France. Charles
was not so wise as he looked or as his
name would suggest. When the dial of
the clock vas submitted for his APP
proval, he studied it long and careful

ure for four o'clock should be four Is
instead of w."
Your Majesty is wrong" answered
Wick. Nv is the proper symbol for
four"
Charles bristled with offended dig
nifty and Numbered at the clock max
err, IL am never wrong! Take this dial
away and correct your mistake!"
There was nothing else to do. In all
his subsequent clock dials Wick was
compelled to use the symbol ordered

followed his example, and the authori-
ty of stupid Charles V, whose bones
have been dust for centuries, still
rules the makers of most of our watch
and clock dialS.

with a most creditable victory over the

cluD had reason to expect that the boys

ing the OrOville bat swingers. but YOU
never can tell what will happen in q
base ballgame and when the scrimmage
was over the CORY scalp was hanging
to the belt Of the other fellow. Few ball
games have eve started on the local
diamond that gave promise of a better
exhibition Of the national sport. Botli
sides were a little leery as to what the
outcome would be, and hence started
in playing almost air tight ball. Up
to h last of the seventh inning Gthe
crowd could not have asked for a pref
tier game OF ball, and any moment the
advantage might swing one way or the
other. Then in the fatal seventh the
visitors went up in the air and when
the smoke cleared away the game was
lost beyond all hope. Had Herman, the
Tonasket pitcher, and ex-Oroville
pitcher, by-the-way, the support he
was entitled to there might have been
another story to chronicle. But, as stat
ed above things will happen in base
ball when least expected, and that is
what makes the game so uncertain I'M
til the last man Is retired.
The game was interesting not onlv
on account of the early performance on
the diamond. but especially because of
the absence of all unseemly wrangling.
TOnasket has one of the most genial
lot OF a players that has been seen
on the local grounds for several seas
ons. and possesses material that with
more experience together is going to
make the best clubs in north central
Washington sit up and take notice.
Most of the players are new men, ex-
cepting Big Bill Oberg. 1t would hard
ly be within the bounds of verify to
say that Bill used to play ball with
Ham. Shem and Jacob while old man
Moses was building the ark, but he has
been peeking through a mask and TAX
ing 'em hot from the bat as long back
as the memory Of the present genera
ton runneth. A fair and square sport
Is old Bill, and he smiles in defeat as
he broadly grins when things are
coming his way. Bill has one trick in
which he excells over any catcher we
have eve seen, and that is, getting
off the mask. No one has ever dis
covered just how he does it, as he
turns the trick so quick the eye can
not follow the motion. Some say that
he yanks off the cage by a jerk of the
jaw, others that it flys into the air
from a wiggle of the ears, but let that
be as it may one thing is certain, if
a ball is to be thrown to the base, or
a foul is popped up into the air, there
is Bill, unmasked and everybody won-
dering how he did it.
With the local lineup Oroville has
the strongest in and out field that
has aver represented the town. There
was only a single slip in the Sunday
game, made by reliable Charlie Powell.
The infield smothered everything
coming that way, while the outfield
