NatChitOcheS Wins Two

Natchitoches added two more to hel
string of victories by defeating the
Hirsh & Leman team of Shreveport,
Saturday the 7th inst, II to and
again Sunday the 9Th. ID too.
Melancon pitched on Saturday fol-
the locals and up to the 7th inning had
no-run no-hit game, through a little
carelessness, the opposition finally put
run across the plate; base on balls
coupled with a two-basc hit was res
ponsible for it.
On Sunday, our southpaw Payne
pitched and was opposed by Weiss, on
whom the Shreveport Club had pinned
its hopes for victory, for three in
nlngs it was a pitchers duel, but in
the fourth, the locals began connecting
with Weiss curves and when QuarIes
closed the melee with beautiful three
Dagger to the right field fence, the
score stood 6 to 0 in our favor; Weiss
was relieved by Flanagan and tlanni-
gan was in turn relieved by Brown
who pitched tue rest of the game.
Payne pitched shut-out ball all the way
and struck out fifteen men and allowed
only three hits.
We feel confident that the folks are
now convinced that Natchitoches, true
to her old tradition, can put out bal
club composed of home boys, the equal
OF any other in the country, no matter
Where they are from. If you don't be-

voted unanimously to give the
necessary amounts SO that this par

ton.
The meeting Thursday night
was, beyond doubt, the best of its
kind ever held here, not in point
of numbers, but as an interested,
determined-to- gain-results repre-
sentative audience, that grasped
the situation as plainly cited by
DR.. Covington, the distinguished
representative of the International
Board, and then took immediate
action.
DR.. Coyington made an earnest
appeal as a man interested in the
general welfare of his fellow-man,
and as professional, cited exam
pies that carried straight home
and struck the hearts of his hear
ers. earnest men and women who
had assembled for the purpose of
trying to grasp the wonderful OPP
portunity offered them for the
general welfare of their beloved
home and people. When the ques-
ton of the uncertainty of being
able to get the members of the
Police Jury together until the
meeting called for the later part
of the month, several in the au-
dience volunteered to act not only
as courier, with the officials sum-
mons, but to 90 after and take
back those members who would

suited in a full attendance at the
special meeting Saturday morning
for q matter that would not walt

on the part of the Banks which
paved the way, the members voted
unanimously to make the needed
appropriation that makes Natchi-
toches one of the three parishes

Starting the week with the matinee this afternoon. the Ramona will again offer vaudeville and motion pictures as the entertainment.
 The company of vaudevillains have arranged a particularly pleasing of fering for the lovers of diversified en- tertainment. New specialties will be introduced by the members of the company, several ensemble numbers being presented, as well as several .in diVidual specialties. The illusionist and magical work will be along en- tirely new lines and the remaining part of the program will be given over to the typical vaudeville, which has been featured so far at the Ramona the most appreciated program they have yet had in the house.
 Dustin Farnum leads off the pie ture program, offering The Iron Strain"
 This popular actor seems to be espe- cialy well received in western roles and when the announcement is made that this western story is along differ ent lines from anything he has yet done the fan will come to realize that some thing indeed relishing is to be ex- pected.
 Farnum will be seen in the role of strong heart of the early days He has achieved whatever worldly wealth he has amassed solely by pluck and courage and he has never known fail ure nor has he ever seen an obstacle he could not overcome. The girl in the case is of the type who believes in the strength of manhood, but who can not reconcile herself to the fact

 In direct contrast 10 the high favor enjoyed by Freeman was the unpopu- larity of Arnold DriScoll. which was based on no reason except for his nat ural reserve and the fact he attended strictly to his own business. Therefore

Grapes have been selling high up in
Salem County. Around Elmer SO per
basket have been asked. Apples are
also arc and high. In that section
most all fruit was killed by the late
spring frost. Elderly people in that
section state hat it was the first time
in their life that a frost was so gen.
orally destructive.
The Cape May County Fair Com
mittee was protected against any loss
by rainfall during the days the Fair
was in progress, by a Rain Insurance
Policy issued by the James A. L. Har-
ris Insurance Agency. This is now
accepted, generally, throughout the
country as the only certain way of pro-
tecting outdoor events against loss on
account of rainy weather.
