BASEBALL BOOSTER PARADE TO-NIGHT-ISLANDERS LAND TWO MORE FROM UTICA JOHNSON WINNER OVER WASHBURN Armstrong Wears Jap Wizard Down in Longwood Clip Tennis Series SftSal tf tkt Teltgntf \ Boston. August 1. William M. Johnston, of San Francisco, the nat ional lawn tennis champion, yesterday defeated Watson M. Washburn, of New York, in the upper half of the semifinals for the Longwood cup at the Longwood Cricket Club. 8-6. 6-4. 5-7. 6-4. In the lower half of the semifinals J. J. Armstrong, of Phil adelphia. defeated I. Kumagae, the Japanese champion. 6-3. 7-5. 7-5. Both matches were played in the hot test weather of the year and all the players except Washburn became thoroughly exhausted. Washburn played a splendid back court game and his deep drives to the far corners had the national champion on the run. At the net the Californian was able to utilize his deadly overhead smashes, and it. was the opinion of the experts that his hitting was even harder than that of former Champion McLoughlin. The Armstrong-Kumagae match ' was purely a back court affair. It was expected that Kumagae would wear down the Philadelphia"- but was the Japanese champion who wilted. In the second set he nearly collapsed after Armstrong had kept him running from one side of the court to the other. He was within one point of winning the third set' when his Ataerican opponent rallied, allowing Kumagae only three points in the last two games.

Both games were won on timely hits, sensational fielding, and good pitching by local twirier*. L'tica was outclassed In each contest. I In the first game Burns opposed Ring on the firing line. The Utes had but four safeties. Two were annexed in the second inning when Burns pass ed one man. and with a sacrifice scor ing was easy. Harrisbyrg hit Ring hard in the first and kept it up In the second. Ring got ugly and tried to ; hit several local hitters on the head with the ball. The umpire simply smiled. Whitewash For Utes It was a whitewash victory for Har risburg in the second. Yolz kept up the good work and let the L*te3 down with four bingles while Harrisburg an nexed 10 oft Karp and mado them count In four out of six Innings.

Let them come out into the open." answered the Zoologist. Dr. Surface appealed to the secre tary of agriculture about seven vears ago when he was "on the sliding board" and succeeded in Heading off dismissal. He was attacked under three governors and in one case Samuel W. Pennypacker made men who had criticised the Zoologist walk clear over to Camp Hill to see if some things were true. To-day was the date set for Dr. Surface to resign or be dismissed. The Commission of Agriculture, which ordered the resignation, met here last night but instead of officially decapi tating the scientist, gave him a hear ing and for an hour discussed the situation with him. Dr. Surface says it was a "real brotherly talk." This was all done behind closed doors and then it was announced that the office would be declared vacant on August 15. Xo reasons were assigned Chairman H. V. White did not make public his promised statement. Dr. Surface said he did not get any rea sons why he should resign and no one would say anything. Dr. Surface fort to-day as he did before and the rort to-day as he did beore and the commissioners are in a position which is diverting Capitol Hill exceedingly. It is said that some or the com missioners. who are not as experienced in political matters as Dr. Surface were to-day trying to get in touch with Governor Brumbaugh as to what move to make next. The Zoologist got to the Governor last week with a letter and received a reply in kind terms, but not holding much comfort. However, h« was able to stop the commission last night and the members of the body want to be sure where they are going next. . The plan is said to be to name J. (5. Saunders, the Wisconsin scientist for Dr. Surfaces $4,000 place and to have him take charge August 15, if . Bandit Riddled in Duel With Detectivess Indiana. Pa.. Aug. 1.

Judge by the Smell—Yosr Nose Knows Ten different men —or ten different advertise ments—-will tell you that ten different tobaccos are the best on earth. Your nose will tell you one tobacco is the best And your nose knows. Make this simple test Rub some TUXEDO briskly between your palms until the heat and friction bring out the full aroma, and smell it Test every other tobacco you can get hold of in the same way. Give-them all a fair, square test Your nose will say, "Oh, what a difference." Your nose will tell you that TUXEDO is packed full of that delightful fragrance that must mean supreme flavor and mildness. Your nose will tell you that the other tobaccos don't meet the test—that they fall down hard Your pipe will back up what your nose says TUXEDO is as good as it smells. That s saying a whole lot—but the proof is wait ing for you.

Captain Cook, who . is directing the team during the ab ; sence of Walter Blair, may use Hel- j frich this afternoon. Huenke is ready j to go in but because of a double j header may be held over until to-mor- I . row. This evening the big booster parade j ; promises much interest.

Fans are going better and they are boosting the game hard. There Is , no denying thn fact that the clamor for baseball like thai of the Inter- : national League last season is a thing ' of the past. The game played by Har risburg is better man tnat of any team in ihe Barrow organization, and then s<ome more. Rosewood, one of the best amateur teams in Central Pennsylvania, is mak ing rapid strides these days. Last nisht this aggregation defeated Stanley in the Allison Hill League series; score. 2 to 1. It was a pitchers' battle. The victors came through on one hit. Er rors helped. However, In fast fielding the Rosewoods are setting a pace for many other teams. The Clerks and Smith Shop played a no-score game. It was a part of the Lucknow Shop League series and ex citing battle. Garverick pitched for the Clerks and did not allow a hit. He , is still in the game and is showing old time form. In the Globe Right Posture League ' series last evening the Grays trimmed the Reds; score. 5 to 2. Snyder pitched a good game, receiving excellent sup port. The State Highway Department team walked all over the Auditor Gen- I eral's Department nine last evening, winning a five-inning game: score. 20 to 2. Xey allowed but two hits, while 1 Lindsay was batted all over the field. The trout season for 1916 closed at midnight last night. It has been an indifferent season, according to local j anglers.

Syracuse put A crimp In Albany's stride yesterday, winning by a score of i7to 1. If Harrisburg wins half of the sanies with the stars and Albany drops a few more, there will be something [ doing. Wilkes-Barre, who comes hero the latter part of the week, won one game from Scranton and tied up In the second. Binghmnton had an easy time , winning from Klmlra.
