The City pin-men counted 855 in the first game, while the association men totaled 819, a thirty-six pin lead. The second game resulted in an 869-830 score in favor of Miller's bunch.

Although Rune, eMyers and King tied for high honor at 195," Rockwood of the City team made high average for the game. Meyers. Runge and King each rung up a 195 count, but their other scores held their averages down. Rockwood, demolishing 549 pins in his three games, hung up the night average at 183.

President Thomas of the Cubs announced today that he would be at the opening game when the Reds and Clash in Cincinnati on April 14. A difference of $666 a year caused "William Killifer to jump from the federal league back to the Phillies, according to President Gilmore of the Feds.

Willie Ritchie is back home. The lightweight champion reached here yesterday after I ii journey in the east, and is $15,000 richer than when he left home. TIRES OF STAGE. Gunboat Smith is fast tiring of the Stage. He opened at Pantages, Cal., Sunday, and though he was greeted warmly, he protested against the footlight game so much that Manager Jim Buckley had to give the circuit people warning that Smith would retire temporarily from the show business after he completed his contract In Oakland next week. Manager Buckley has already accepted a $6,000 guarantee for Smith to meet Battling Levinsky in a ten-round bout in New York in aMy. However, Buckley would be pleased to have the gunner perform in Frisco, and the chaws are that Promoter Jim Coffrqth will select an opponent for the Oakland champion.

Fish and Game Association Happy Over Season's Work

The annual meeting of the Wayne County Fish and Game Association Friday night in the Comemrcial club rooms will celebrate the completion of the new fish pond and hatcheries. Tha hatcheries alone have a capacity of 50,000 bass a year, all of which will be placed In Wayne county. Because of the large amount of business done by the association in the past year, the meeting will be essentially a business session, with reports from all committees. The annual banquet probably will take place during the first part of May. Will Kelley, Charles Grose and Ed Cooper, each of whom has held directorships for three years, will retire and three new directors will be elected. The association has nine directors. Although the meeting will be open, voting power will be in the hands of members only. Since the washing out of the fish ponds last year, the association has

Frank (Home-run) Baker, third sacker of the Philadelphia Athletics, and the heaviest clouter in the big circuits. Baker's principal pastime is knocking boards off of outfieldfences. Just a few days ago Baker brought sorrow to the Philadelphia Nationals by breaking up the game with a home-run clout over the right field fence.

J. J. Writers Give Him Birthday Dinner. John J. McGraw celebrated his forty-first birthday today. His twentyfirst anniversary in baseball occurred while he was in New Orleans with the Baltimore Orioles some weeks back, and he was stopping at the St. Charles Hotel then, as he is now. The newspaper men with the Giants gave MeGraw a birthday dinner, because all of them expect to have birthdays themselves before this trip is over, and reciprocity is the first law of nature. Old animosities have been buried in New Orleans and John J. McGraw has received an invitation to bring the Giants there next season to train. It is unlikely that he will accent; it is unlikely that he will ever leave Marlin, because he regards the little Texas town as the best place in the land for training, and because he has it all to himself; but he will undoubtedly return here for exhibition games in 1915. It is also likely that the Giants will always remain in the South this late as long as McGraw is manager. His experience this spring, and the condition of his men, has convinced McGraw of the value of a late stay below the Mason and Dixon line. "I had my lesson last year," says McGraw. "I went out of Texas with a perfectly conditioned club and ran into a stretch of rough weather around Baltimore. Hereafter I am going to pull the late start." M'COY VICTORIOUS NEW YORK, April 8. All McCoy, the Brooklyn middleweight champ, knocked out George Chip, the Pennsylvania clalment for the middleweight title, in the first round of their bout, here, last night. The knockout came after one minute and forty seconds of fighting. At the start, ('hip assumed the offensive and was forcing the Brooklyn man around the ring when the latter landed his first blow. This, however, proved the last one, too, as Chip took the count. Up to the present time no less than thirty-one aeroplane pilots have looped the loop. Of these.Hamel an Englishman, and Gilbert, a Frenchman, havelooaed the loop with passengers.

been working to replace the ponds

with better ones and to install hatcheries. A recent inspection of the hatcheries by a deputy of the state fish and game commissioner showed them the best private hatcheries In the state, and probably superior to those the state owns. The association will kep the hatcheries going to their full capacity. Until Mortan lake Is stocked with bass, the product of the hatcheries will go largely to the new lake, although other parts of the county will not be neglected. With 50,000 new bass ach year, all streams in the county can be partially stocked annually. The directors of the Richmond Lake and Park company issued an order recently forbidding fishing In the lake and will co-operate with the Fish and Game association in making good fishing there in future years. Throught the efforts of the association four hundred parent bluegills were put in the laek last December MOTORCYCLE NOTES About 200 riders are expected to take part in the first spring run of the Bay State Motorcycle club of Bos-, ton, Mass.

RELIAIICE-WAYIIE GO PROMISES SPEED Steinkamp and Yedding vs. Diggs and Davis Slated for Duty Tonight

TONIGHTS 8CHEDULE Reliance vs. Wayne Works. Nationals vs. A. S. M. Co. . Some real baseball Is promised for tonight - in the - Commercial league, when the Reliance and the Wayne teams meet and the Nats try conclusions with the Seeders. The games will be played at the "T" gym, no admission being .charged.' Although the Reliance-Wayne contest will be hard fought, the NatcoSeeder clash is expected to be the closest game . played in the league. Both of these teams have had experience in the game and seem to be the most likely contenders ; for the rag. Both teams have a clean slate in the percentage column. , Both nines have good batteries. In Steinkamp and Yedding, the Tool-Makers seem to be well fitted to take the number of the Hoosier bunch. On the other hand, the work of Diggs and Davis, of the Seeders, will have to be reckoned with, as this pair is recognized as the most formidable battery in the circuit. Firth and Hanna will be on the slab in the first game. VIEWERS NAMED Three viewers were appointed yesterday afternoon to view the proposed change in the road leading to Milton over the west fork of the Whitewatec river. They are Oliver Spencer of Bethel, and Lincoln Jones and Walter S. Commons of Centerville. It is probable that one or two property owners in Washington township will remonstrate against the straightening of the road, but the commissioners anticipate making the change if there are enough property owners in favor of it RELEASE THE DAMMED-UP BILE We try to express this thought with such words as Clogged Liver Lazy Liver Inactive Liver, and the usual common expressions, but it does not state the fact. Nature's own antiseptic and disinfectant, is dammed-up so that It flows feebly or not at all. The first evidence you have is a headache a coated tongue or dizziness or all of these. You sometimes "wear" it off, but while you are wearing it off. you are depressed, grouchy. touchy, filled with fear. Don't take mollycoddle laxatives. None of them really reach the spot the Liver none release the Bile. PoDoLax Releases the Bile Go right to the bottom of the trouble with the old-fashioned duly tried liver regulator Podophyllin (or MayApple Root, something called by its biblical name Mandrake.) No, it won't gripe or sicken you, if you get the right form if you get PoDoLax a Podophyllin formula with the gripe and nausea taken out. "PoDo" from Podophyllin "Lax" meaning Laxative not purging or cathartic. The children will like It and you, like others, will use it instead of the mollycoddle laxatives. Stop at the drug store and get a 50c bottle.
