Sport LEADERS MEET AD HILL TEAM IN HARD GAME 8. A. L. GAMES. Play Grounds Vigrans vs. Ad-Hill. Athletic Park A. S. M. vs. Natco: Easthaven D. & W. vs. Easthaven. Old time rivals meet in the S. A. L.. circuit tomorrow. The Vigrans, who have led the procession all season, meet the Ad-Hills at the play grounds In a battle which promises to be thebeet of the day. Lant year's pennant winners, the A. B. M., have their work cut out for them when they tackle the fast going Natco's, who at this stage of the game look to finish out the schedule in either first or second place. The tailenders indulge in a little eetto across the river and the Tailors are counting on adding this game to their won column. The two contestants have broken even in their two previous engagements. Brooks and Allison will officate at the play grounds, Peck and McMinn at Athletic park, and Shaw and Slack at Easthaven. - BREHM MAY BOOK CUBAN GIANT NINE The prexy of the S. A. L. Is chuck full of schemes these days for boosting the league. He proposes now to bring the fast A. B. C. colored baseball team of Indianapolis, to Richmond. t.ome time the latter part of August, to play the Cuban Giants. Last Saturday the two clubs put on j a game in Muncie and from reports received they drew a capacity crowd. The A. B. C.'s are considered one of the fastest colored teams in the country and would no doubt be a drawing card in themselves, to say nothing of the Cubans, who always draw. The plan as suggested would be to have the teams play on a percentage basis with the S. A. L. sharing all expenses equally. REQUEST GAMES HERE From mail coming in from various Cincinnati baseball teams it appears I hat the old standbys which Kenney used to bring are in a hole as to wher-3 to get games. No less than four letters were received yesterday, and besides two telephone calls and telegrams. It is not the intention, however, of the local club to take on every Cincinnati team that asks for games, as they can get just as good, if not better, bookings with representatives from other cities.

Invents New Ball

S& 0 I ALEXANDER U

Grover Cleveland Alexander, th- Philadeiohia National pitcher, is practicing a new delivery called t! e finger-nail ball. Pat Moran, who was catching for Alexander, explained by ..uig the ball with his finger nails, the pitcher was able to make it break exactly like the famous spitball. The ball, according to those who have seen it, breaks down, either to the outside or inside corner of the plate and is a great baffler for the batter. As soon as Alexander has gained control of the new delivery he will use it in regular games. So far it has been confined to practice.

DON'T FEAR PESKY LITTLE GHIGGER'S SITE; DROWN PARASITES IN BATH OR AVOID HAUNTS

Although of brief duration, the harvest disease, as it Is commonly known, is one of the most annoying and troublesome complaints of the summer season. It is of frequent occurrence, seldom recognized, and widely disseminated. The disease is generally ascribed to errors of diet, over-exertion or poisoning, and but few of the afflicted are aware that the cause of their suffering is a minute six-legged insect. The "jigger," "chigger," or harvest mite, which occasions this vexatious summer eruption belongs to the mite family. This in itself is sufficient to cause some doubt in the minds of the enlightened, inasmuch as several other members of the family have gained fame through misbehavior. The itch mite is a notorious example. It has been with us since history began and still afflicts the human race. The straw mite, only recently discovered, is also acquiring somewhat of a reputation. Early treatment of jigger rash or trombidiosis, as it is known, is essential. If the condition is recognized at its onset the sufferer can almost invariably point with exactness to the burrowing mites and frequently the disappearing extremities of the Intruders may be observed. A needle, sterilized by boiling, may be used to pluck the Invaders from their dermal intrench-

During the last seven months in Preble county bonds for school centralization and other educational purposes have been floated at frequent intervals and the total had now reached $299,999. The townships represented and the issue in each is as follows: Jefferson town ship, $55,000: Dixon township, $38,-, 000; Somers township, $60,000; Mon-l roe township, $55,000; Lanier town- j ship, $59,000; Gratis township. $35.-; 000; West Elkfton village, $2,000. . ln addition to these sums,- an issue of $10,000 was floated for the purpose of j re-building the school building at Morning Sun. j Although built early in the .Christian era, and built without mortar, a stone church in Ireland still is in ex- ! cellent conditionrments, and even if the search proves unsuccessful, the counter-irritation produced by the instrument is pleasurable, and affords great enjoyment to the afflicted. ' If the swelling or oedema of the skin is considerable, or if the lesions are not recent, search will prove futile as the larvae fjre already safely buried. One can then only hope for an early termination of their activities, this usually requiring from five to seven days. Several extremely useful preparations are prescribed by physicians not only to kill the mites, but to reduce the irritation and relieve the Motor Wheel lust the thine tor commercial use.

Owner Navin of the Tygers writhes in agony every time he reads a line about Guy Morton of the Indians these days. Guy would have been a Tyger a couple of years ago had a JJetroit scout made a favorable report. Morton could have been purchased at that time for $200; today Navin would give $20,000 for the Clevelander. Guy Morton. , The scout's report was that Mor- ' ton's delivery would be ineffective in the major leagues, and also, the chances were against him lasting long in any league "because of the unusual exertion he put on the ball." Instead of Morton the scout recommended the purchase of McGreevy, a pitcher once heard of, but scarcely remembered. With a pitcher of Morton's class the Tygers would be clean favorites in the pennant chase. itching. Bathing directly after exposure is advisable in order to drown the parasites. The best treatment is. however, the avoidance of the haunts of the tormentors. HOLD FAMILY PICNIC. EATON, O., July 30.
