While the sphere was enroute to first Manager Jessup was enroute home. Carmony shot the ball to Harms, the elongated catcher, who -whirled to retire Jessup. Useless effort, for the little manager went to the grit and by a beautiful slide earned the winning run. Score:

Baseball Chatter. Sunday the Muncie independent team will be the attraction at Athletic park, and it is expected that there will be a crowd of S.ooo to 4.nh people to witness the game. , The Muncie team is the one which gave the Cincinnati Muldoons the terrible trimming of '.V. to 3. The third base bleachers will be entirely completed by Sunday and will have a seating capacity of '1,200 to 1,500. By next Sunday the first base bleachers wilr be- up and the grandstand well under headway. Bad news for the fans. It was announce today that "BulT'Durham, the hard hitting left fielder of the local team had jumped his contract and had signed to play center field with the Portland team. "Bull" had a heart to heart talk with the Portland manager Friday evening in the course of which he was offered aiore money than he is receiving here. He then informed Manager Jessup that he would become a member of the Jay team. "Bull may think his kangaroo tactics are for the best, but the fans doubt It. Jimmy Cameron, the hard hitting and clever local first baseman, will be out of the game for several days as a result of an injury received in ths Portland game Friday. Jimmy, while stealfng third in the tenth inning.

caught his spikes in the ground and severely wrenched the ligaments in hi3 right leg. His services will be greatly missed by th Quakers. " Next week the Quakers probably will play five games. Sunday Muncie will be played here.! Tuesday and Wednesday the Quakers will perform at Portland and it is probable that the crack independent team, at Hartford City will bo seen here on Thursday and Friday. Manager Jessup is now

negotiating with the management of this club, which is rated as one of the strongest Independent teams in the state. The Portland team set up an, awful holler in the tenth inning Friday over Lally's decision that Cameron was safe on his, slide to third base. It is the general opinion that Lally was a little off on this decision, but he undoubtedly decided as he saw the play. Lally has handled the Indicator in. a most fair-minded manner so far.

BRAVE LOVE. He'd nothing but his violin, I'd nothing but my song. But we were wed when skies were bl'JS And summer days were long-. And when we rested by the hedge The robins came and told How they had dared to woo and win When early spring was cold. We sometimes supped on dewberries, Or slept among the hay. But oft the farmers wives at eve Came out to hear us play The rare old tunes the dear old tune We could not starve for long While my man had his violin And I my sweet love song. The world has aye gone well with us. Old man, since we were one Our homeless wanderings down the lanesIt long ago was done. But those who wait for gold or gear. For houses and for kine. Till youth's sweet spring grows brown and sere. And love and beauty tine, Will never know the joy of heart! That met without a fear When you had but your violi And I a song, my dear.

The Mad Dog.

William J. Stevens, for several years local station agent at Swansea, R. I., was peacefully promenading his platform one morning when a rash dog

ventured to snap at one of William's

plump legs. Stevens promptly kicked

the animal halfway across the tracks, and was Immediately confronted by

the owner, who demanded an explana

tion in language more forcible than

courteous.

"Why," said Stevens when the other

paused for breath, "your dog's mad."

"Mad! Mad! You double-eyed

blankety-blank fool, he ain't mad!"

"Oh, ain't he?" cut In Stevens. "Gosh! I should be if any one kicked

me like that!" Everybody's.

Politeness Pays.

In one of the churches of New York,

according to District Attorney Jerome,

there was once an old woman who in

sisted on bowing her head every time

the name of Satan was mentioned dur

ing the service or sermon. The rector, after noticing the eccentricity for

many montns, asked ner: Madam,

why do you bow at the name of Sa

tan? It is not customary, you know."

"Oh, I know that" she said, "but it

doesn't cost anything to be polite, and one never knows what will happen."

On the Job.

A New York printer who occupies a floor in Seventeenth street directed one of his clerks to hang out a "Boy Wanted" sign at the street entrance a few days ago. The card had been swingingJn the breeze only a few minutes when a red headed little tad climbed to the printer's office with the sign under his arm. "Say, mister," he demanded of the printer, "did youse hang out this here 'Boy Wanted sign?" "I did," replied the printer sternly.

"Why did you tear it down?"

It is said that General Knyphausen,

who commanded the Hessian mercenaries in America in 1776, knew little about the sea and less about geography. On the voyage to America he was on Lord Howe's ship, where he passed several uncomfortable weeks,

as the voyage was unusually Ion

Knyphausen was a martinet so far as discipline was concerned. He had strong scruples against Interfering, bul

the time came when he could keep silence no longer. He marched 6tifflj up to the admiral and said: "My lord.

"No," growled Uncle Harry. "Tired?" ventured Helen. "No," said her uncle. "Sick?" further inquired Helen, with real sympathy in her voice. "No." still insisted Uncle Harry. "Dus feel bum, hey?"

Original. .. . At the Dil worth-Fairchild wedding I met my old college chum Disbrow. We hadn't met since we left college,' twenty-five years before, and would not have known each other had we not been introduced. Disbrow was known to me by reputation, for he had become eminent in physics. I also followed science and have achieved some reputation in bacteriology. When the bride and groom entered the drawing room for the ceremony, Disbrow and I followed. r "What a perfect picture of youthful beauty!" I whispered to Disbrow, referring to the bride. "How old would you take her to be?" he asked. "Twenty-two or twenty -three." A singular expression passed over his face. . "Do you think her older than that?" "Suppose I should tell you she. Is over forty." "I would doubt your sanity." At this point the marriage service commenced, and our remarks ceased. When it' was over and we had offered our congratulations, Disbrow and I went to the supper room to partake of the delicacies displayed there. Helping ourselves, we found a cozy corner and sat down to chat and eat "Estwkk," said Disbrow to me, "I'm going to celebrate our meeting after so many years by letting you into a se

cret We are brother scientists; therefore I don't consider what I am about to tell you a breach of confidence, or, rather, I consider the professional confidence superior to the individual obligation. Do you understand?" "Perfectly." "Well, the girl we have just seen married is forty-two years old." I gave a gasp of astonishment "But I must go back to the beginning. You know when I left college something was expected of me." "You were considered a prodigy," I Interrupted. "It wasn't the prodigy; it was luck, just as it was with Roentgen, only my luck came long before his. I made a similar discovery years ago. I have applied it as no one else has applied it Now, you know that from the moment we begin to live we are attacked by microbes. Cancel the microbe, and

you cancel old age. From experiments on Insects I found that by exposing the

larvae to a ray since called radium I

arrested decay. But at the same time I arrested growth. From Insects I experimented on frogs, kittens, dogs and

other animals. I have a pet collie fifteen years old as lively as a puppy."

'Disbrow, has your learning made

you mad?"

'No; I am as sane as you. But I

knew thr.t if I offered any such ideas to the world I'd be put in limbo, and as I dread lunatic asylums' and value

my freedom I have kept my mouth shut" "For heaven's sake, go on." "This Is no place to give you any

thing more than a preface to what I have proposed to tell you about th bride. I did make my discoveries known to one man, old Vollmar, our professor of chemistry at college. That was just as I had made up my mind to try to arrest decay in human beings. Not long after that Vollmar came to me and told me that two multimijlion aires desired to join their vast fortunes by the marriage of a son of th& one to a daughter of the other, but the boy was but two years of age, while the girl was twenty-four. If they waited till the .boy became of age, the girl would be too old to produce an heir. At least such an event would not be likely. Besides, the difference of age would be agreat obstacle to their marriage. The old man asked me if I would make an effort to arrest decay

on the part of the girl." ; "Come, come, Disbrow, what nonsense Is this?" "Your incredulity demonstrates the necessity of keeping my secret If you tell it sooner or later they'll have me behind closed doors. Yqu haven't the scientific head old Vollmar had. He tumbled to the idea at once." "Go on with your yarn." "I'm not going to try amid this clatter of dishes and voices to tell you my process. I will only say that the stumbling block In my way was the fact that the elections discharged from radium are obstructed in their passage through air. I wag therefore, obliged to put the subject in a receiver and, exhaust tho air." '-' , "Which means' death" "Ah! There's where the wonderful power of radium comes in. It is sufficient to keep life in the' subject for an indefinite period." "But where did you get your apparatus? Sufficient", radium, for the purpose would .cost a. fortune." . '

"The girl's father opened his bank account to me." ... "Well?" "My subject . fvas ' a bit. frightened and her father the. onjy, one except herself In the secret was beside, himself with fear. But the desire to pile up gold even for posterity was too strong for him, and he did not interfere with the experiment. Within twenty-four hours I had rendered his daughter impervious to the destructive influence of germs, and she has remained young from that day to this.
