GIANTS TAKE FIRST The Giants, won the first of a series of games for. the city championship yesterday afternoon at Athletic Park from the Athletics by the score of 3 to 0. The game was one of the best of the season. Smith, second base for the Giants, knocked a homo run and several of the Athletics' hits were good for extra bases. Marine for the Athletics allowed 5 hits while Benson for the Glanta allowed one more. SAVING HOP CROP Spokane, Wash., Sept. 1& Five hundred men, women and children, including a number of Indiana pickers, are at work saving the hop crop in the Spokane valley, where it is estimated that 15,000 bales will be gathered this season. This will probably be the last season of hop growing in central Washington, as the vast tracts now devoted to this industry are becoming more valuable for apple orcharding. FOUND MOT GUILTY (American News Service) Pittsburg, Sept 13. E. B. Saylor, ex-superintendent of the Pittsburg fflstriot of the Western Union Telegraph company and William H. Smith, a broker. Jointly accused of conspiracy in the wire tapping case were declared not guilty today and the costs placed on the county. William Thompson, a partner of Smith who was also accused of conspiracy, was discharged at the direction of the judge before the Jury retired. OAGGOTT IS DYING Thomas Daggott, of East Germantown, who went to sleep on the Terra Haute, , Indianapolis and -Eastern tracks, at the foot of Capitol Hill, east of Cambridge City, week ago last FrWay and was struck by an Interurban car, will probably die. He is Injured internally and one leg has been amputated and it is a surprise to the attending physician that he : has survived as long as he has. He was intoxicated when the accident happened. The motonnan did not stop the car because he thought the object lying on the track was a hog.
THE FIRST CHOICE. It Vfas Right, Too, Bscause the Bravest Are tho Tsndorost. Some years ago the excursion steamer returning from Alaska to Seattle dislocated its propeller in a dreary portion of the inner passage and came to a forced stop. For two days the vessel's engineers and machinists labored to repair the break, but without success. Two of the boats were manned and dispatched for aid to Victoria, 300 miles away. In the meantime it was discovered that the ship's stores were not abundant Alarm bred in the minds of pessimistic passengers, and the contagion spread. Starvation might assail the vessel before help arrived. A former California official took It on himself to reassure his timid companions, but bis effort was not perfectly adapted to raise drooping spirits. In fact, his closing sentences but added to the gloom. "Let us be brave." he said. "If the worst conies and that dread necessity which in such misadventures has met others must be faced by us. let us remember that it is good to die that our friends may live. The one or more that may be sacrificed will be consoled by that thought." There was a moment's silence, awful ; in its intensity, then a cheerful voice was heard. "You should be taken first Governor Booth. You know the bravest are the tenderest." And even the terror stricken smiled once more. San Francisco Argonaut TAPA CLOTH. Attire of tho Native Hawaiian Bofore Civilisation Arrived. The "paper mulberry" tree (Broussonetla papyri for a) is the source of the famous "tapa cloth" of the Polynesian islands. This is a natural tissue and Is derived from the inner bark and after being torn off in strips is scraped with shells and beaten with a mallet until It resembles a soft, flexible paper. The individual strips are united by overlapping the edges and beating the fibers together until large pieces of the tissue are formed. It is said that before Hawaii was swept with the wave of civilization men and women were dressed in this natural bark cloth "tapa" or "kapa." The dress of the women consists of the "pa-u," or wrapper, composed of five thicknesses of tapa. about four yards in length by three in width, passed several times around the waist and extending below the knee. The dress of the men was the "malo." or girdle, about a foot in width and several yards long. A "kikel," or mantle, six feet square, was sometimes worn by both sexes. In former years these natural cloths were sometimes bleached to snowy whiteness or were dyed in colors and even printed or ornamented usually In checks or squares. Exchange. A Practical Demonstration. '"The best way to study nature Is to go right to it." . "I suppose so." "Oh, I know it. I was once disposed to doubt the industry of the ant, of which so much is said." "And you learned better? "I did. I had a controversy with a naturalist over the question, and I thought I had him beaten until he gave me a demonstration." . 'Took you out and showed you the ants at work, did be?' - "Well, not exactly that, but be took me along on one of his scientific expeditions and then maliciously pitched my tent over an ant hill. By the time I discovered what was happening the conviction was forced upon me that ants are really and truly industrious. They are small, but they made me move, and some of them went right along with us to the next camping place." New York Times. Under Examination. "Do you know the prisoner well?" asked the attorney. "Never knew him ill." replied the witness. "Did you ever see the prisoner at the barr "Took many a drink with him," was the reply. v "How long have you known this man?' "From two feet up to five feet ten." "Stand down," yelled the lawyer in disgust "Can't do it" said he. "Ill sit down or stand up." "Officer, remove that man." And he did. An Athletic Game. The cobbler's shop in a small village was filled with old men and a young man. the young man being a good football player. Naturally the conversation drifted to the game of football. The young man turned to one of the old men and asked him If he had ever played the game. The veteran thoughtfully blew a cloud of tobacco smoke from his lips and replied: "Nay, lad. I've never played at none o them athletic games 'cept domino. " London afalL Her Qualification.

JOHN BULL PEEVED
Disgruntled Because America Has Seized the North Pole. ANTARCTIC EXPEDITIONS (American News Service) London, Sept 13. Two rival Antarctic expeditions, one American and the other British, will dash for the South pole, both straining every nerve for the honor- of placing their respective flags upon the coveted goal at th southernmost spot on earth. The first call for funds to make up a $200,000 subscription list was Issued here today by Captain Robert F. Scott of the discovery expedition, and simultaneously with stirring editorials in the English press calling for patriotic compliance, came a cablegram from Sydney, Cape Breton, in which Herbert L. Bridgman, secretary of the Peary Arctic club, confirmed the report that Commander Robert E. Peary will organize an expedition during the coming winter to make a dash next spring for the South Pole. Great Britain, stimulated by the success of Peary at the north pole, is aroused today to a pitch of enthusiasm seldom seen out of war time, "For the honor of the flag" is tho caption of an editorial today In whica The Daily Mall comments on the undertaking of Captain Peary, which reads: "Through the energy and daring of Commander Peary, the hope that the Union Jack would fly first at the nortn pole has bcn token from us forever. It is poor consolation to read in Commander Peary's account that he place 1 an Englishman in command of the last supporting party, because It seemed ap-j pronriate to have him next to ?.n American." The Mail declares that the English are unaccustomed to occupying second place in any field of human endeavor. TIPS BY TELEGRAPH American News Service New York, Sept. 13. Former Jude . Robert S. Lovett, fpr years the right j hand man of E. H. Harriman in all his great railroad enterprises, today had confeire-J upon him the leadership in the Union Pacific affairs w'jen he was ejected chairman of the board of directors to succeed tha dea:'i finan-; cier. William Rockefeller and Jacob Schiff were elected dri rectors to sue-' ceed Harriman and H. H. Rogers. BANKERS' CONVENTION. (American News Serv!c Chicago, Sept. 13. Special trains from every direction today brought more than 1,000 additional delegates with tlreir wives to the convention of the American Bankers' association. A total of six thousand is anticipated. An unusually brilliant social feature, Thursday evening at which time President Taft is to make his bow to the bankers and their wives, no doubt had an effect in bringing so many delegates to the city. A FATAL CLOUDBURST. (American Newa Service) Raton, N. M.. Sept 13. Mrs. J. W. Nickle, wife of a Raton business man, daughter Ethel, aged twenty-two, and Albert Kessler, aged twenty-five, Miss Nlckle's fiance, were drowned during a cloudburst near here last night. J. W. Nickle was also swept away but escaped death as if by miracle. Kessler met death in trying to save his sweetheart whom he heard calling his name. None of the bodies were recovered. SUTTON'S BODY EXHUMED. (American News Service) Washington, Sept 13. The body of Lieutenant James N. Sutton of the marine corps, killed in a brawl with several other, young officers on the naval academy grounds at Annapolis, and whose death has been subject to naval inquiry, was exhumed at the Arlington cemetery this afternoon. An autopsy to determine the exact cause of his death, if possible, is to be held. Guards at the cemetery prevented curious visitors, of whom there were quite a number, many with cameras, from entering the grounds, the entire cemetery being closed to visitors by the war department City Statistics Deaths and Funerals. SCHOLLr Bridget Scholl, aged 77 years, died yesterday morning at 11 o'clock at hr home, one mile west of the city. Besides her. husband, Jacob Scholl, four sons and two daughters survive.

Aged Groom Smokes During the Marriage Ceremony
Do the conventions of even the most informal marriage permit the groom to smoke while the ceremony is boing performed? Probably not in all cases, but Dan Cupid offered no objection to the groom smoking during the marriage ceremony of Joel L. Bales, aged 77, a retired farmer, ' living at Winchester and Mrs. Ruth Chamness, as?3d 67, living in Dalton township, in the private office of county clerk, Harry E. Penny, this afternoon. Judge Henry C. Fox of the circuit court performed the ceremony. Mr. Pales and Mrs.-Bales appeared at the clerk's office this afternoon and LOCAL MAN FIGURES David Brewer, Claiming Richmond His Home, in Kentucky Gun Fight. NEWPORT HAS SENSATION Newport, Ky., Sept 13. A running fight in which the fugitives and a policeman figured caused a sensation in the business section of the city today. The trouble began when Detective Morton tried to arrest Leroy. and Isaac Brewer, the latter claiming his home as Richmond. Ind. The charge against them was the alleged attempt to detain fourteen year old Florence Gray. Both men are said to be forty years of age. As the fugitives and detectives raced down the streets, a gun fight ensued. Three bullets fired by Ijeroy Brewer grazed the officer but he finally captured his man. Two other shots grazed bystanders. David Brewer succeeded in making his es cape. Isaac Brewer is not known in this city so far as is known. His name is not contained in the city directory. OFF UNTIL MONDAY The grand jury, which has been in session off and on since last Tuesday, adjourned this afternoon, after the inspection of the county poor farm, until next Monday, when, unless Prosecuting Attorney Charles Ladd has other cases for investigation, its report will be made to Judge Fox of the circuit court The jury was in session today and this afternoon visited the county Infirmary west of Centerville.

a Wonderful Game
VJ-s announced their Intentions. Miss Ad dison Peel, who waited on them, was not altogether surprised at the appll cation but not a little surprised when the groom in a whisper asked If the ceremony could be performed at once. Judge Luther Abbott is out of the city and Judge Fox was invited to perform the ceremony. Mr. Bales was smoking when he en tered the clerk's office and did not desist at any time during the cere mony. He has been married twice His wife has been married once. The previous marital relations of each party were severed by death. BIG ORDER PLACED The reconstruction of the tracks of the street car company from Thirteenth street east to Twentieth street. Involves an amount of expense that U scarcely realized. The material will all be new, which means new ties, wv rails and plates, new curves at Twentieth street, and new brick - between tracks. One of the largest Items of expense will be cost of excavating for the concrete, upon which the tracks are to be laid. This will take a great many car loads of crushed stone and sand. It can perhaps, best be understood by the order for cement, placed with the Mather Brothers company for about 2,000 barrels. It will take a large force of men for many weeks to complete the work, and involve an outlay for the company of approximately $20,000. The. material is now being placed on the ground, and tomorrow the work of tearing up the tracks will begin. START HEW SERVICE Yesterday marked, the beginning of the J. M. & I. service in this city. Hereafter, two passenger trains will leave and enter the city each day, with the exception of Sunday, when one train a day each way is scheduled. This ctty is made the junction point instead of Cambridge City and will prove a big benefit to local travelers. Cambridge City residents' are much disappointed over the change in the company's plans, which brings the junction of the road to this city as it will take six or seven families from Cambridge City. Some will locate In Richmond, others will locate In Madison. This ! imj lawllrlm in at aod at am m thD so ptoMMt to tok Dr. CffcJwrtl's Syrop Ppia.

THE COMPROMISE. He Thewaht He Was Firm and K He Was Ceneiderate. The young man had entered that mysterious realm called matrimony, and as It was bis first offense bis father was handtog him some paternal advice as to bow be should treat the young wife. "When you have any little differ ences of opinion, my son." he said to the boy. "if you can't persuade Mar garet that you are right and you probably cant, fee they are all a beat alike you must compromise. Be firm, yet be considerate and compromise." "Yes, father." replied the son. "I well remember a little experi ence." and a reminiscent expression came over the eld man's face, "on the very threshold of the married life of your mother and myself, and it was the basis of all future disputes. It was this way: I wanted to spend the summer, our first vacation together, in Maine, and your mother wanted to go to Saratoga. That was thirty years ago. But 1 shall never forget how Ann and vet how considerate I was with your mother and how we compromised, avoiding all dispute. We stayed from Saturday noon to Tuesday morning at Bar Harbor, and then we spent the rest of the summer at Saratoga. Tea, indeed." the old man added, with a sigh, "that's the only way to deal with a woman. Tou must be firm, but be willing to compromise a little once in awhile, as 1 have done with your moth er." New York Tribune, For the past two or three years a considerable Increase in the consump tion of oranges has been effected through advertising certain weeks as "orange" week, during which fruit of especial quality would be put on the market and very reasonable prices would prevail. Much has been done to popularise this fine fruit through just such well managed publicity cam paigns. Following along lines somewhat similar, the raMo growers of California adopted a scheme last spring, advertising April 29 extensive ly as -raisin- day. the idea being to cultivate a tase for and Increase the consumption of raisins as a table fruit While not all of the thirty-five tons of raisins produced in tbe San Joaquin valley in 1908 were disposed of as a result of tbe campaign, a much greater quantity was consumed thao would have been under normal conditions.
FLUFFING LEGISLATORS. Withdrawal ef Industry an Empty ' Threat f Employers. Not'jlr.g Is more difficult to estimate accurately than tlif effect of labor logUldtiou upou employers, writes Florence Ketley in tbe Survey. I have known of many threat of employers to move away frni a state by reason of a ptcposed labor law. Never bare I known one really to go, For Instance, in the giass iudustry iu Illinois none has goue. aud lb Industry has increased -very considcraHy cinte night work of children was stopped and tbe eight hours a day Introduced for them. There l always the threat of the New Jersey glas manufacturers that if tbe night work of boys Is stopped they will go to Maryland or Vct Virginia. Because every year tbe number of boys employed diminishes as tbe Industry i more efficiently organized I believe this to be an empty threat. When cotton mills have gone south
from New England there have entered into their calculation free or cheap water power, freedom from taxes. cheap coal and cheap adult labor. The statement that they went to escape labor legislation must be considered in the light of these things. One Massa chusetts cotton mill Is commonly said to hare been moved to Rhode Island by reason of tbe ten hour law. But the considerations as to taxes, rent, water power, etc., are unknown. The only Industry I have seen more into Pennsylvania, where labor legis- . latlon has always been a dead letter. is that of silk and knitting mills which went from New York to employ wom en and children, the male members of whose families, working In mines and breakers, cannot sustain them. I think the laws had little to do with It They are nowhere aufflclently rigorous to make much difference to employers. The pretext alleged by the south ern members of Governor Patterson's ' Nashville conference on child labor for not recommending the eight hour day for children In southern states was the twelve hour day in Pennsylvania and the ten hour day In Rhode Ialand and Massachusetts. Transplanting an Industry la. bow- . ever, so serious a matter that many -considerations more Important than any labor law yet enacted, much less enforced. In this country would enter In. ; Legislation which protects the Ofe, . limb, health and Intelligence of working people la not a burden upon Indus try. On the contrary, it is to cases a direct benefit, Increaata general efficiency.
