C, June 9 Dame Fortune smiled upon the Red Birds yesterday after two men had died in the ninth inning, and of course it was s-iinply another hard luck story for the Highlanders. When the visitors came to the bat for their half of the ninth their last chance- - Faycttcville was leading by one run. And when Dawson, the first man up, died via second to first, it looked like a lead pipe cinch. However, things are not always what they seem. Crozier drew a pass. Haas succumbed by the third to first route, Crozier going to second. Mur ray was sent in to bat for Hoffman, and he was awarded a free trip to the initial corner. Hoover then came to the plate and sounded the death knell of the Highlanders. He stung one to wards right Held, which Hart man aged to reach but could not hold, and Crozier scored. Hart threw wild to the plate and Murray also romped across. Brumfield died easily, and thus endeth Fayctteville's little tale of woe. . In their half of the ninth the High land'ers tried hard to tie, but Mc Manus was on the job and they were retired in one, two, three order. Both pitchers pitched great games, and deserved to win, but victory can not be divided in a baseball game. Waters only allowed two hits, fanned seven and gave two bases on balls, while McManus allowed but five hits, fanned Ave, and gave two free passes. The Tabulated Score. Raleigh. A. It. 15. H. P.O. A.

We need it in our business. m m m "We didn't exactly trap the Red Birds yesterday (Monday), but niadyj their wings mighty tired," says tho Fayetteville Observer. . Not loo tired to continue the .flight yesterday." ' Dr. Anderson, the spit ball artist of the Tobacconist, has gone to Rich-, mond to attend the convention ot state dentists, it is a gooa tiling me doctor went before he pitched his game in Raleigh. Ho would hav been too nervous to stand the board. It would be a wise move on the part of the local management to see that there is not so much betting go ing on in thu grandstand w-hen the team nlavs at: liome. Several ladies I have complained of it and it should be stopped. There's a time for every-1 thing, but after you get in the grand stand the time for betting has passed. Yes, the bleachers have been moved. No more flunk hits for extra bases. Public sentiment certainly had a little weight there. - The First llascman. The first baseman' in a baseball 'uw moi au.g a. oci.mk, eonuueu-,. game is a sort of moveable Eiffel ' Rev, L, B. Jones, of Central Metli tower with a big mitt on. His duty is church.' The interment will be to catch any ball that may be thrown in his general direction before the! j batter, .-who is running for first base, can step on his heel with his sliarp spikes. The first baseman must not only be very talented in the matter of catch-, ing a mlle-a-niinute ball around the waist so firmly, that it can't get away, but hej must also enact the parts of the India rubber man, the contortion ist and the human balloon. He must be able to leap seven feet in the air, leaving one foot on the bag in the meantime and pull down a ball that an ovi;r-enthusiastic fielder has heav--' ed at the, horizon. He must be able to reach under a base-runner's arm and four feet to his left and pick off a message from the pitcher that has drifted too far to port. . He must also, when there is no time to spare, be able to walk out into tho diamond six or eight feet, with all but one leg and I meet the ball half way. Only tall -nieu with loose Joints ever rise to fame as first, basemen. 1 The first baseman need not be as handsome as the pitcher becauso fewer people look at him. But he must be very reliable. A first base man must catch 5,000 balls a year thrown at him by men in all degrets of hurry and excitement and if he misses more than a dozen of them he is removed from office and sent back to the bush league. Adrian C. Anson was the first and greatest first base man. Ho played the position from the time of Cleopatra until the Teign of Cleveland. He was succeeded by Frank Chance, who Is six feet and a good deal high and can reach up and j scoop a ball out from under tho calves of the milky way when neces-( Bary.

Consp'riitors Did it Big Business From Marion Office Said to Huve Sent Three ThousHiid Dollars H Month to Fellow-Conspirators In Italy. . ( By Leased Wire to The Times.) Cincinnati, . Ohio, June 9. With the arrest of Samuel Lima, Joe Ba tella and Sam Ri.zio at Marion, O., and six other suspects at Dennison. United States secret service men think they have caught the ringleaders of the black hand society in this coun try. The officials making the arrests were Detectives ,1. F. Oldfield, R. M. Horsford and E. F. Hutches, all at tached to the office of Postoffice In spector Homes, of this city. Several hundred letters were found concealed in Lima's home. The con spirators were alleged to have sent 3.onii monthly to Italy. Postol'lice Inspector Charles Holmes, of Cincinnati, who is in charge of the case, says his men dis covered evidence showing that Ma rion Is the headquarters of all the black hand societies of the country and they allege that Lima is the head of the Organization. In the safe in Lima's store was found evidence that, hundreds of business men in all parts of the state and country had been paying tribute to the gang. Inspector Holmes says that the gang vs composed of Italians, and worked exclusively on its 'country men.. He has obtained evidence that as late as two Weeks ago it sent from the Marion postoffice money orders aggregating $1,900 to confederates in Italy, this being the division of blackmail funds in one case: The arrests were made simultane ously in the two towns after a search lot , six months tor tile men wno sent , threatening letters' to John Amicon, in fruit dealer of Columbus, demand- that $15,000 he paid In Pitts burg. The handwriting in the letters to Amicon is identical with that in the letters received by Antonio Riz zo, a fruit dealer of Cincinnati, who die I suddenly several weeks ago after refusing to obey the demand of a blackhand letter to pay $1,000 or forl'eit his life. He died after eating a banana given him by a stranger. The men arrested are charged with aih'nipting to extort under the Fed eral statutes. The black hand gang recently, ordered ; Fred Ciancolo, a Cincinnati fruit, dealer to give up if 10,000 on penalty of death for him self and family if he refused. Cian colo gave no thought to the letters, and a few nights later a dynamite bomb was exploded in the doorwav of his home. No one was injured, but aa adjoining saloon was wrecked. Joseph Annario, a Cincinnati fruit dealer, was recently warned to give the black hand $10,000 or his child would be kidnapped, Acting in har mony with the government officers, the Pittsburg police recently entered a black hand headquarters there and made twenty-one arrests. Charges Against Patent Medicines. Most of the charges against, patent medicines as a class have no founda tion, in fact, and are manifestly un fair and unjust. There are a large number of stand ard remedies like Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable- Compound used in thous ands of American homes which have saved hundreds of dollars to families wno could not afford to consult a physician, and they have answered the purpose equally as well.
