about it. as they had a lot of balls in
a hole in the ground near the home
plate. Every time a man knocked a
ball into the grandstand they just got
out another one. No fan ever seems to
return a ball if he gets his hands on
it. There are a lot of funny things
about "A big league game.
Washington failed to score in the
sixth or the seventh, although our No.
8 (A1r. RueD made third base, and
Bucky Harris came TO the bat with
one on third and one on first. He hit
the ball so hard that it went way up
in the air, but came down right in the
| third baSeman'S mitt, and that made
the third out for Washington.
With the score 3 TO for Philadel-
phia. Mr.. Marberry. pitching for
Washington, closed out the Quakers
in the eighth, without allowing a
| single one to get to first base.
They Didn't Actually Hit Him.
The Gnats began TO hit Mr.. Slim
HarriSS about that time. (Not literally.
of course-what they really hit was
| the bald. Our No. (Mr. Judge) hit
a single to the short stop. Then No.
4 (Mr. Goslinl flew out. followed by
Mr.. Joe Harris.
With two out, two strikes and two
balls. No. 6 (Mr. Bluege). hit a single
to left field and our Mr.. Judge came
home with the tieing run. The next
man up, flew or flied out, which
ever it is, to right field, and the in
ming was over.
Mr.. Marberry did some tight pitch
ing in the ninth inning, only four
men going TO bat.
Then came WaShington's big
chance. Mr.. Ruel opened with a hit
down to third. which gave him first
base Mr.. Marberry, up next 'bunted"
and made first as the first basema n
had run in to get the ball, leaving
the base unguarded.
Mr.. Rice Has Ball Trained
Mr.. Rice then bunted down third
and the ball rolled right along the
white line and stopped just at third
base without rolling off. Mr.. Rice
must have spent some time training
that ball. And the third baseman
was so busy watching to see if it
would roll off that white line that
he didn't notice our Mr.. McNeely,
who. running for Mr.. Ruel, scam
pered to third.
Then Mr.. BuCky came to the bat
and nonchalantly knocked the ,ball
out to left field, bringing Mr.. Nc

Florists and MillinerS Say It
 Was Best in History

"A wonderful Easter" is the way in which local merchants charac- terized the holiday just passed. for florists, mllliners. clothiers and dealers in other seasonal articles re- port record business during the last week. Although 1924 was q banner year for sales, this Easter topped the previous one in most cases and equalled if In all.
 The majority of florists report that their business exceeded that Of 1924, with particularly heavy run on vioets for corsages Flowers in short lengths for cemetery purposes were also in great demand while the ever-present call for lilies was as great as ever, In some cases, stocks gave out and had to be repienished in short order.
 Easter fnery sold in greater quan- tity than ever before. A steadily in- creasing demand for women's hats, eliminating in the few days before Easter, largely depleted milliners' stocks, while other dress goods sold much more rapidly than last year. Large numbers of mems shirts were sold, while ties, socks, suiTs and other mems wear were in greater demand than in past years.

 In another tax case the court rules that the purchase price, when lower than the market value on March I, 1918, may be used in com putting for taxing purpos?I income derived from bond and stock trans- actions.
 This case, from Pennsylvania. was brought by the government against Charles H. Ludington. Prior to March l, l9lSi Ludington purchased shares of stock in different corpor- ations and sold them at loss in 1919.
 The commissioner of internal rev enue permitted Ludlngton to deduct as losses the difference between the purchase and the sales price, but the third circuit court Of appeals sus- tained Ludington's contention that in computing his losses he should have been permitted to have used the higher market value of the stocks value of the stocks and bonds stocks and bonds on March IS, in- stead Of the purchase price.

Into account on taxes under the 1918 revenue net upon securities pur- chased before March 1, 1913. and sold in 1919, the supreme court held today.
 The court in deciding case brought by the government against tho estate of James J, Flannery, held that the galn and not the market value on March 1, 1913, the time fixed in the law for determining value, or the purchase price, must govern in such cases.
 In 1919 Flannery sold some stock which he had bought prior to March l. 1923. When his executors report ed on the transaction. they claimed that the profit which had been made was not taxable income because the revenue act of 1918 had provided that on property acquired prior to March 1.i19i3. the fair market value of the property on that date should be used.
 They contended the market value of the stock on that date was high CT than the prices obtained on it's sale, although the sales prices was
