over them. Then they dug their spikes
In the dirt and proceeded to give the King of Spitters a lambasting that long will be remembered in Beantown. Thirteen hits were pounded out by the visitors in the seven innings that remained, and it required pretty support to keep those swats from counting more than a quartet of tallies. Walsh was as effective as of old in spots, and several times pitched him
self out of deep holes with honor. But when not in trouble he resorted to the side arm stuff considerably. The Red Sox began laying for that, and when they hit -Zowie! Those thirteen swats
included four "three-baggers, some of which almost went out of the lot, and
two doubles, piling up a total of twenty-three bases all earned with the slug stick. "',
This Speaker, who was held hitlesa
in five times at bat by Lange the day
before, took bitter revenge out of the Big Reel, for he slammed out four hits
yesterday. Tris started with a double, duplicated that swat the second time
up, tried to hit a homer over Bodle's head, but was foiled by Ping, the third
time up, busted a triple against the right field screen the fourth time up.
and contented himself with a mere sin
gle the fifth time he faced the moving pictures. To the fans the game was the least interesting feature after the fourth inning. They were kept all a-flutter by the presence among them of a replica of the creator of the Ananias club and the Opobs. Shortly after the same began the distinguished visitor entered the reserved section and was instantly recognized by cheers from the
spectators in that part of the stand. These he acknowledged with a graceful sweep of his broad brimmed black hat. and by a danllng display of white teeth. There were more cheers as he found his seat right behind the Boston bench, prepared to root for the representatives of the state in which Oyster Bay Is situated. Everybody in the plant rubbered hard to see Teddy and there were cheers for "The Next President." Fans crowded around to shake hands with him and some brought their children to be introduced to the arch enemy of race suicide.
header ought to draw more than twice that number in this city of bargain hunters. The only thing to be deplored was the fact that the Cubs were primed for battle yesterday, and expected to win the game handily, especially as the Phillies are in a crippled condition. Mordecai Brown was scheduled to pitch and was warming up in fine style when the rain came. The postponement was a legitimate one at this time for it rained lakes full of water in a half hour's time. The players scooted to the clubhouse all except Dode Pas-
kert. He stayed out for about five
minutes, until some . one told him it was raining. The final game of the Cubs-Phillies
series will be played today, and early this evening the Cubs will catch a fast train to St. Louis, arriving there the following night. They are booked for three games before returning to the home lot. It is Cheney's turn to pitch today, and Manager Chance may let M. Brown rest until the St. Louis series, so that Larry may work in his regular turn. Larry wants to work every fourth day, and Manager Chance intends to let him do so If possible. Manager Chance and Mrs. Chance returned to the Cubs camp yesterday, after spending Sunday over on the Jersey coast. The manager didn't care to take any part In the exhibition game at Baltimore. "Rufe" Waldorf, who pitched the latter half of the game Sunday, had an accident while returning to Philadelphia. He had the misfortune to sit down on. Heine Zimmerman's new straw hat on the car
during the return trip, and, needless to say, the new hat was demolished.

A blesslng-Jn disguise for the bargain hunter, at least, was the heavy rain of last Friday, which, owing to Hammond's Inadequate sewer system, flooded the basements In the business district. One of the principal sufferers was the White Store, Hammond's store de luxe for ladies, the above picture giving a faint idea of the scene In the basement after the water, standing two feet deep, had been drained off. This is the second flood experience that Manager Cohen has had, and he has about decided to abandon the basement of the building as a salesroom, and is now preparing to hold a big sale at which all the damaged goods are to be disposed of at bargain prices. The opening of the sale will be announced later. The goods damaged consisted of dry and dress goods, silks and reserved stock that was stored in the basement for lack of room on upper floors, such as hosiery, underwear, muslin wear, and In fact a little of everything that is carried in the store. Manager Cohen says that owing to his rigid policy of carrying only first class merchandise, it will be necessary to dispose of the basement goods at once, and to make a quick clearance he will make the prices attractive. As a further inducement to the store's customers, railroad fares will be paid to out-of-town shoppers, and goods will be delivered free of ' f--wbere within a hundred miles.

East Las Vegas, N. M., June 18.
Tommy Ryan, the retired middle
weight champion .today resigned as
trainer in chief in the camp of Jim
Flynn. There has not been harmony
between Flynn and Ryan since the ar
rival of the trainer and a disagree
ment arose between Ryan and Curley.
Ryan will take his pupil, Howard Mor
row, a middleweight, to El Paso, where he will fight June SO with Jack Her
rick.
It was said in the Flynn camp that Ryan and Flynn could not agree on training methods from the' start. The fireman has his own Ideas of training
' for battles, and these were not favored
.by Ryan, which caused the split.
j Prof. Watson Burns, who prepared
I Johnson for his battle with Jim Jeff
rles in Reno on July 4, 1910, said to
day: I consider Johnson Is in as
good physical condition today as he
ever was in his life. I know him like a book in fact, probably know him better than he knows himself. I am
figuring on putting Jack into the ring on July 4 weighing 215 pounds. As he
has only four pounds to take off, he will not have to rush himself in training in the final two weeks. We both consider Flynn a good, rugged performer, and the champion will not be
caught napping."

excuse sounds familiar. The makers of the Marmon, after Ray Harroun's victory in the 1911 600-mile race, made a similar announcement and gave .a similar reason. This similarity cannot be classed as a coincidence, either. The National will probably be back next year, according to the manufacturers. Another familiar announcement.

No Home is Complete without Bell's Longevity Lotion FOR THE BATH I KNOW that it is natural for people to laugh at a proposition of the kind I am about to make, but a little laughter does not hurt and the truth usually prevails in the end. . I assert that this Lotion will, without doubt, extend life, if disease has not got a foothold, I believe that old ape is due to the fact that i the waste material given off . by the "body gradually closes up the -pores or drainage tubes, so to speak, of the skin. . In time the accumulations of all this hard material sets up a condition of ossification. The 6kin of old people as you very . well know is almost like parchment. They very seldom exhibit a healthy looking appearance. Their complexions are white and bloodless. Of course, I cannot say that I am positively going to live until I am Ave hundred years old; I only will vouch this much, I know for certain that I can restore the skin of the human body from a condition of indurated age to one of the freshness of youth. , I am in earnest and in all seriousness when I state that if used according to directions this Lotion will give you a new skin no matter how old you are. If you keep your skin young you will surely keep your body young and live longer. After taking the bath a wonderful feeling of healthiness will be noticed, even after a few applications of the lotion one begins to feel this exhilaration. The body seems to function better, and the tone is greatly increased. The removal of all waste material from the skin is certainly worth accomplishing, even if nothing else be attained. However, I claim it will do just what I say, prolong life. It is well known that many animals live to much longer periods than man, and I do not see why the man machine, if kept well stoked, that is, with all waste material, "Clinkers' I might say removed, should not live much longer than he does at present. Do you ever stop to think what the consequences are when the skin is not thoroughly clean "I mean cleaned," not merely washed off. Our bodies contain millions of pores, (or drainage tubes) when in a healthy condition are full of life and have a duty to perform. All waste matter is daily thrown off through these pores, and if not kept open but remain clogged up, then these pores are unable to perform their duty, the consequence is that you have a sallow and unhealthy skin. You must consider that the skin is likened unto a piece of delicate fabric rdo you cleanse it as a piece of fabric," or do you simply wash It off as you would a piece of pottery ? If you wish a healthy skin with the bloom of youth, use BELL'S BATH LOTION, which will, with absolute certainty, keep the pores open and clean. It removes the dead matter, the impurities from the pores and leaves them free to perform their function. BELL'S BATH LOTION enters the pores, loosens the dirt, bringing it to the surface, thus removing many skin diseases, restoring the Bkin to a healthy condition, giving vigor and strength to the body. It is a lotion which cleanses, purines, softens and beautifies the body. I assert without fear of contradiction that man ought to live from one hundred to one hundred and fifty years. Old age is a disease, so says Elie Mechniqoff sub-director of the Pasteur Institute, Paris. He says we must cure it, when we have done so, we shall prolong life for over a hundred years. The goal of existence is the accomplishment of a complete and physiological cycle in which occurs a normal old age, ending in the loss of the instinct of life and the appearance of the instinct of death. . :- ; - : Old age with its attendant infirmities is caused by the hardening of the arteries, in time the accumulation of this hard material sets up a condition of ossification. BELL'S LOTION will restore the skin of the human body from a condition of indurated age to one of freshness of youth. NO ATHLETE should be without a bottle of BELL'S BATH LOTION. Should you be troubled with feet that throw off a bad odor and is offensive, BELL'S BATH LOTION will on first application make them sweet and effects a cure. DIRECTIONS. Take an ordinary warm bath after which dry well, then use the Lotion by saturating a bath sponge or put a little in palm of hand repeating until body is covered, going over the whole body with this Lotion, then dry with a rough towel.
