Today finds base ball fans on the
peninsuIa on edge awaiting the call
of the umpire to play ball. While the
Milford fans will not be given an OPP
portunity to see their team in actlon
on the home grounds today, they
should be doubly repaid for waiting
when Milford meets Dover on the
Milford grounds tomorrow Saturday
afternoon. For the past three weeks
the Milford players have been given
workouts, and during the past week
three games have been played with
exceptionally strong teams, all OF
which were lost by the Milford team.
The fact that the games were lost
means nothing to the management
for it was not their desire to win the
games so much as it was to get the
players in shape for the regular
league opening today. In Tuesday S
game, when Milford lost hard fought
came with the Pennsylvania Terminal
team. the local boys could have won
several times if some OF the reserve
batters had been put in to bat IN a
pinch. It was the desire of the man
agement to give the men in the game
thorough tryouts rather than to WIN
the game.
To say that the Milford fans, and
base ball lovers throughout the pen
insula, are wild for base ball is put
ting it mildly. Reports from all the
towns in the circuit are to the effect
that good teams will go on the field
today to represent their home towns.
This is true for Milford. The team has
been very materially strengthened
since Tuesdays game.
On Wednesday the officials OF the
Milford Club went to Wilmington
where they closed q zeal whereby
ten of the players of tine Wilmington
Atlantic League team comes to Mil
ford to play. Manager McCloskey
comes here as pilot of the Milford
team. With him he brings Lane ISL
base; McNiff, short stop; Leclalre'
outfielder; McDOugal, outtlelder;
HYDE, catcher; Worden, Humphries'
Stammerman and Ramsey, pitchers.
OF the old bunch of players who have
been in Milford the team retains
Thompson, the speedy center fielder;

TWO HOUSES Quilted
In A MIDNIGHT FIRE

Fire Quilted two dwellings on
Third street, North Milford, in the col
ored section shortly after midnight
on Sunday morning last. The build
ings destroyed were owned by Mrs.
Henry Purnell, and George Dunning.
The Purnell house was a double dwell
ling occupied by Henry Purnell, his
wife and the Owens boys on one side,
and by William Sharp on the other
side. The fire started in the rear part
of the Purnell home. Causey Owens
made his home here. Persons who
were early on the scene state that
there was evidence of a "still" having
exploded, and that bottles of home
brew were popping at regular inter
walls during the early stages of the
fire. This is the second time that the
Carlisle Fire Company has been call
ed to the house in recent months; they
having answered an alarm about two
months ago. The blaze was extinguish-
ed before the firemen arrived, how
ever, at that time. Rumors have been
current in Milford for months that
liquor has been for sale in that sec
ton of the town, but the authorities
have never secured evidence against
any person.
Certain it has been, that there has
been a source of supply of liquid pois-
on for many months, in that part of !
the town.
The property owners of Milford have
rights that members of Town Council |
must put forth a real effort to protect
them in peaceful possession of their
reasonable assurance
against it's loss, from acts of lawless
element. There is no politics in the
problem as it is presented to Town
Council for real effort to remedy.

MILFORD POST OFFICE NOW
RATED IN FIRST CLASS LIST

Beginning with July LIST, the U. S.
Post Office Department rates the Mil
ford Post Office as one of the first
class. This is because of the steadily
increasing amount of the business
transacted by this post office, which
is very largely made up Of the mail
matter sent out from the L. D. Caulk
Company of Milford.
The work has become so heavy, that
it is necessary to supercede the horse
drawn wagon, by an auto truck, for
hauling the mail matter and parcel
post business, to and from the depot
and the post office. This will exped-
tie transportation of the mails.

GRAINS ADVANCE
ON GOOD BUYING
Senator Capper Says He Will
Not Interfere With Changes,
tBy Thomson & McKinnon)

BIZ United FfHGLc iaI
CHICAGO, Nov. 26.-Opening weak
to lower, grains met good buying
power and scored sharp advances on
the Chicago Board of Trade today.
Wheat traders were encouraged to
support the market when bull senti-
ment developed with the statement OF
Senator Capper that he did not wish
to interfere with the functioning Of
the grain exchanges-that they have
done a vast amount of good. Sponsors
of the Capper-Tincher trading act ara
also reported to have listened to sug-
gestions for notification Of the OBJ
j~ectionable parts of that Jaw and will
move such changes be made by the
next Congress.
May corn developed good strength
after a weak opening with buying Of
local investors, who believe bulljsh
conditions will prevail in corn when
these contracts call for delivery.
Good local buying. based on reports
that the grain is being consumed
on farms, gave oats considerable
strength.
Heavier hog receipts and lower ca
bles caused a slump in provisions.

STATE COAL RAIL
RATE TOO HIGH
C. of C. and Operators Join in
Protest.

Strong objection to freight rates on
coal from the Linton-Sullivan mine
group to principal cities in the State
was voiced today by r. B. Coapstick,
traffic manager, Indiana State Cham
Der of Commerce, in oral arguments
before the public service commits
sion. Cobpstlck explained his ex-
ceptions to the tentative schedule
drafted recently by A. B. Cronk,
commission traffic expert.
Backing the State chambers fight
for reduced rates were representatives
Of several cities, railroad officials, coal
operators and the Terre Haute Cham
Der of Commerce. Operators say
Cronk's schedule, together with two
recent rulings Of the Interstate. com
merce commission, make interstate
shipments to Indiana points cheaper
than intra-State shipping and smother
the competition of domestic operators.
The entire membership of the COM
mission, together with Cronk. heard
arguments. Others favoring decreased
rates and the opposition were to be
heard later today. Approximately
thirty-five persons were present.

Dr.. Albert Asks Mandate En-
abIing Him to Dissolve

BY CARL D. GROAT

United Press stan correspondent.
BERLIN, Nov. 26.-General Won
Seeckt, Germany's unofficial dictator,
still will be the power behind the
government if DR.. Heinrich Albert,
lates to try a hand at the helm OF
the ~foundering ship of state, sue
ceeds in forming a cabinet
Vona Seeckt's power is growing 1t
is understood President Ebert, before
directing DR.. Albert to form a minis
try, conferred with the general as to
whether the former minister of the
treasury in the Cuno cabinet would
be acceptable
DR.. Albert, prior to entry of the
United States into the war, was Ger
mar fiscal agent there.
1t is understood he has agreed to
accept the CHARACTERISTIC only on con.
dition he shall have a mandate en-
abling him to dissolve the Reichstag
at any time. If he/should resort to
this extreme, DR.. Albert would nom
inally remain head of the government,
but actually the real power would
revert to the military power and Von
Seeckt.
The press is luke-warm in greeting
the proposed chancellor.
