The origin of this beautiful and weil.

monotonous life of a country physician
near a little town in the state of Wis-

Fleoasant Gap Beats Meola 1 wice
Last Saturday afternoon during tue
Sunday Behool Pienie, Pleasant Gap
defeated Hecla Park at that place ins
double-header, winuiog the first game
by 4 rus to 5 and the second game by
the score of 5 to 4, the games being 4)
innirgs aud 7 looings respectively.
Bailey, of Centre Hall, and Jodon, of
Milesburg, formed the battery for 1he
Gap, while Kline, of Bellefonte, «ue
on the rubber for Heels. Jodon did
some tall hitting in the first game,
gelling a two-bagger and two siogles
in three times up, Webster also ghit a
two-sacker,
In the second game, which went
seven iouiogs, the lineup of Hecla
was somewhat changed, aod Plessant
Gap by hitting the ball when hits
meant tunes, defeated the former in a
game that was noted for occasional
protests, the umpire, who by the way
was a resident of Hecla, being the
fault in each case. It was a hard pill
for him to swallow to see his team jose
both games, sud in order to avert two
defeats, he made decisions which are
not in sccordance to the rules found
iu the Reach or Spading Guide.
The spectators at the game sided
with the visiting team in their appeals
to the umpire to make the decision as
he saw them, even though it cost
Hecla the game. The Gap worked
bard for the victory and deserve all
the credit due them.
