able Shower Of Frogs.

Showers of frogs must have been
common enough in ancient Greece,
seeing that Aristotle gives them a par
ticular name. Alluding to the pre-
vailing idea of his time, which sup
posed them to come from Heaven, he
called them messengers Of Jupiter.
Two carefully observed instances in
modern times have especially wrought
conviction among the learned.
The first was attested by whole
company Of soldiers, who during the
French Revolution, were on march
towards the north Of France. In the
open country they were assailed by
q shower Of little toads which were
dashed in their faces, falling with
torrents Of water. Astonished at such
an unwonted attack, and desirous of
satisfying themselves as to whether
this living shower came from above,
the soldiers spread out their handker-
chiefs on level with their heads,
and found they were soon covered.
After the storm, the astonishment
was general when the soldiers saw
this unexpected brood leaping about in
the folds Of their cooked hats.
The second well-attested shower of
toads fell in 1884, in the town of Ham,
in Germany, when the streets, roofs
and cutters were Immediately filled

inning and kept score from count

not played ball since his high school
days, and with several hundred fans
bowling for Hope blood pounding in
his ears, the most of us would have
thrown the ball over the grand stand.
The Hope umpire made bad de-
cision on johnson in the tenth in

Hope second baseman took too much
time and johnson had the ball beat

OF experience to the lineup, Coop
erstown has not lost a game and the
league teams that win from us now
will have to play ball at faster clip
than before.
The whole team is deserving of
praise and the support of the fans,
and it is hard to pick out any out
standing star.
Hope had good infeld and es-
pecially so in their short-stop, who
sathered in everything that came
into his territory. Their catcher
made it very hard to steal bases and
tho he did not seem to have much
speed on the ball, he surely did get
it Off with snap. Old Man Milli-
gan played right field, and just to
show the youngsters that Father
Time has not dimmed his eye, he got
three of the hits gathered by the
Hope team. He has played ball so
long with Hope that he ought to
have pension-with a salary-if
he plays as he did last Friday.

timer"
On Friday the fans were given
fourteen innings of baseball, in one
game, that proved positively the hot
test game 'ever witnessed here. The
contesting teams were Hope and
Cooperstown, old rivals. The game
went fourteen innings before Coopers-
town succeeded in winning. The
story OF the game follows, as told
by Sentinel Courier representative
who witnessed it:
"In one of the most interesting
games Of baseball that has been play
ed on the Cooperstown grounds for
the last ten years, Cooperstown de-
feated Hope by a score of to 5.
Aside from one or two ructions over
umpires' decisions the game went

see Hope and Cooperstown play ball

baseball in those days? Why the

Such a game was witnessed at the
last day OF the fair and was fit
ending to a remarkably good fair.

an iron man, whose pitching was as
good in the fourteenth inning as it
at the beginning of the game.
He struck out seventeen men of the
hard-hitting Hope team and they
only gathered six hits Off his twirling

all predict in another year we will

Up to May l, the bureaus figures show, a total of 6o1,515 veterans had ap- piled for vocational training, of which number 312,930 applications had been approved.
 In addition to the 30o00 factories and industrial organizations which are affording placement training to ae,- | fO4 veterans, there are 3,22S institu- tions engaged in the work of remaking men who were disabled or partially disabled. or this number there are l62 universities. 253 colleges, ss state normal schools, 1,o41 commercial schools. PA public school and 266 in- stitutions teaching miscellaneous sub jects. Of these 49 are government in- stitutions.
 The number receiving instructions has almost doubled in the period from July 1921 to last May, the bureau says. On July 1, 1921, there were s53ss men actually taking vocational train | ing and on May 1 last there were 10s,919.
 The number of those graduated, or declared rehabiitated is constantly in- creasing, Up to last July 5,o5o men had been declared fit to take up new vacations, and since that time 7,514 veterans have been added to that number

SEEKING RELEASE
Foreign Legionaries in Spanish Army Expect Release Now That Moroc- can Campaign Is to End.

Melila, Morocco, July 19.--A movement has arisen among the for eign legionaries serving in the Span ish army looking toward release from service consequent upon the vide spread announcement that the Mo- rcccan campaign is terminated.
 Most of the Legionaries are Span- iards who enlisted for the duration of the war and now consider their en- gagement concluded. The men for warded a claim to this effect to the commander -in-chie through the reg ular channels. but received an un- favorable reply stating that the cam paign officially still continues. A bat talion of the legion stationed at Dar- druis showed immediate dissatislac- ton and 40 of its men disappeared in the court of one night, followed by eight others the following day. See ing the mems determination, the au- thorities ordered the remainder of the battalion to Melllla to rest, replacing 1t at Dardruis by q battalion of the regular army.
