After Rosewood had a lead of S to 2, and only two and one-half more innings of an Allison Hill League con gest remained to be played, the un- : expected happened. Neither Vesuvius r.or Popocatepcl ever burst forth with j more pent up energy than did the ! Galahads in tiieir last two rounds at i bat. The entire team struck with more regularity than a bunch of I. j W. W.'s. And when "Scrunts" Holland bad u-liiffed Plnchhitter Landis for | the final out. Manager Fritz's nine j lead by a score of 10 to S. Through fast work the Rosewood | ••lan had un-assed a commanding leaiij of 8 to 2. Any spectator in the crowd j was willing to wager an American! dollar to u Russian kopek that the Killinger club would win. But just the uncertainty of the game, as dis- j ulayed last evening, is what makes I baseball the great national game. Galfvhad began to clout the ball to I all corners. And when Galahad had men on bases. Rosewood would err. j It was a happy combination for the i winners, who brought forth more real rooting from the crowd than any two | • on tests played out on the Hill this j .-etsor. The big leader among the tooters was "Tinwear," who handed! out his line of chat gratis. We don't j know what line of goods he carries. ; but it never seems to wear out. No • one seemed to take more delight in ! the genie than did "Tinwear." who I yell, il himself hoarse, as the Galahad | players chased around the paths. , "Serunts" Holland was the lucky I pitcher. He held Kosewood to seven i hits, and struck out half a dozen bat ters. Galahad took kindly to both I Fortna ami Longeneckcr. Tn-night I lending am Hick-A-Thrift will bat tle, with Worts vs. Eveler as the prob able opposing tossers.

This appears in the Old Testament computed to be 1500 years before Christ and was asked by the Lord of Job, possibly at a time when he was suffering from boils. or "risings" and the Lord an ticipated giving him a week-end lay-oft' for a fishing trip, this is only a surmise on the part of the writer. The- query "Canst thou take out a fish with a hook?" is the very first record we have of the anglers com mencement. We assume there were no dry fly anglers in those days, hence an absence of differences of opinion, as to tne. logical and cor rect manner of catching the scaled beauties amongst the fishermen. The infatuating pleasure of playing it all over is in most instances the cause of arguments, which open the door for a successful fisherman, to again recite his prowess with rod, reel and line in landing one or mort fine specimens, which have fallen to his creel. The same grand and glorious feeling, the same Inward thrill is experienced, it is claimed by those jho have been successful practicing all methods, when a rec ord trout or bass is landed, either by the dry fly, wet fly, plug, sea sonable bait, minnow or worm routes. Where there was one fly ; caster in America ten years ago, education has increased them to ten to-day, Fly Ashing is the acme of "fishing or angling ethics. Endorsed and ignored. A vast army of fish ermen have never fished with a fly, neither have they ever seen one in action. Yet they are nature's noble men from every angle, but their sur roundings and environment have never introduced • them to the Ity fishing methods. In shooting circles the same line of caste is drawn be tween the 20 and 12 guage guns. Representatives of both guuges aro men of class and excellent sports men, yet their views are at variance as to the proper guns with which to kill game, both remaining within NEW YORK BOWS i IN DEEP SORROW [Continued l'rom First Page.] i tary leader, cabled from Dublin as!

Woods in Charge of Flight Lieutenant Colonel Arthur Woods! of the Signal Corps, who came to j New York yesterday morning to rep resent Major General William L. j Kenly, chief of the Division of Mili tary Aeronautics, announced yester- • j day, after communicating with his: | chief, that the three squadrons of! | military aviators will take wing on ; Thursday morning and follow the! j j'rocession from the City Hall to the! i Cathedral. Each squadron will con- j j tain seven flyers, who will pay such : tribute in sunshine or rain as is ; possible for no other men to pay. Lieutenant Colonel Woods was police commissioner of Mayor 1 Mitchel's administration, ajid was one of the major's closest friends. : As he outlined preparations for the ; funeral yesterday he recalled his un i expected meeting a week ago last ! Sunday at Beaumont, Texas, with i Major and Mrs. Mitchel, who had 1 f?one from Lake Charles, La., to i spend a day at Beaumont. Colonel Woods was hastening along the plat form when he saw a tall man in uniform, accompanied by a woman, approaching him. It was Major Mitchel who strode forward smil ingly and with outstretched hands. Then, with a laugh, he dropped his left hand to his side and saluted j precisely, snappilv. with his right. "I salute my superior officer," he i said to his former commissioner of I police. Ten Thousand In Cortege ! It is estimated that 10,000 persons ! or more will form this cortege to es icort the body to the Cathedral, j There will be seats for 4,400 per sons in the Cathedral, but admis sion will be made by card, as other i ise efforts would be made by three ' times that, number to enter the | doors of St. Patrick's. Places have i been reserved for officers of the ! military forces of the allies, includ ing Gonerals White and Bridges of j the British army, officers of the j Chasseurs d'Alpins and of the Ital | ian army, and it is probable that representatives of the military forces r?f the allies will appear, with dip j lomatic representatives, in the fu : neral procession.

Minutes of the I meetings of the 'County Bar, when resolutions honoring the late mcm ] hers, Benjamin Uw Forster snd Wil j Ham L Loeser were passed, wej* lilcU I on the court record* yesterday. the bag limit scope, both honest in their opinions. Trout are voracious feeders, with apparently two objects in lite, the keeping of their stom achs tilled to capacity and repro duction of the species. Nonparticu lar as to the men*, offered, snails, grasshoppers, worms, larvae, min nows and flies all serve to fill the stomach. The major portion of the above lures have been cunningly imitated In rubber, silk" and feath ers for deceiving the speckled beau ties. Patience is the first requisite of the successful fisherman, tenacity, accuracy, knowledge and skill all so to spell success. The "sloppy fisherman" who fails to note the sun and cloudless sky shadows, which his body casts upon the water, whose casts become less ac curate and lack linesse, while his movements announce his coming, his feet slipping about on the sub merged rocks, whose back lash is frequently caught by a limb, to be disengaged by a violent jerk or pull breaking his line and necessitating new leaders and flies, never brings mt'ch home, except his standing re port "fiisherman's luck." A real angler is freighted with patience and carefully selects all equipment before starting, even the small chips upon which he floats his dry fly down to the pool, there to be drop ped upon the surface of the water by a deft turn of the wrist, are gathered in advance. A dry. fly floated to the hiding place of a bass or trout will incite him to immedi ate action, when a wet fly dropped upon the water near their resting place seems to peeve and cause them to sulk. The Rogue river in west ern Oregon, has developed into a dry fly fisherman's paradise, under the leadership of George Putnam and Chris Gottlieb, of Medford, Oregon. This line of sport will be come more popular as anglers are educated and become familiar with the handling and success of the dry fly in fishing. , HERSHEY CAFE CLOSED FOR FOOD VIOLATION [Continued from First Fa#e.l with the war regulations of the ad ministration. The investigation of the food acf-i ministrator resulted in the discovery that the Hershey Cafe has been serv j ing too much wheat to its patrons. ! Other violations of the regulations I have occurred there, the food admin- I istrator said. He added that at first j it was said at the cafe that orders ; had been given the help to obey the | injunctions of the food adminlstra j tor. Later ignorance of the regula-, ! tions was offered as an excuse, Mr. ; McCormick said. Restaurant Men Warned Instructions from the state food! , ;dministrator to cut off the sugar j supply of hotel and restaurant men' ; who misinformed the food adminis-; j tration as to the number of guests) I Ferved each month, for the purpose I I of securing larger sugar supplies, are! j expected by the local food adminis j tration. The Federal food adminis tration is now checking up the ho-! lels to determine whether such mis-; statements were contained in the, affidavits filed with the adminlstra-1 tion. The food administration has warn led the hotel and restaurant men; [ that they will have to devise methods: i for saving sugar. The allotment ofi I three pounds a month means a half; ! ounce per meal, and by serving more' j than that, hotelmen jeopardize their' I Federal licenses. Indications are,, moreover, that the allotment may ! be cut to fwo pounds a month, ac cording to information received this ; morning. More than 500 sugar purchase! 'certificates were issued to grocer.®. | hotel and restaurant proprietors, and < : manufacturers until noon to-day. i Many sugar questionnaires which! ! have been received by mail are un i signed and not sworn to. Sugar pur- ( chase certificates can not be issued on questionnaires returned in such a condition, and numerous sugar! users will go without sugar. The local food administration this morning warned a.ll sugar timers, ex cepting householders, who do not I appear at the food administration of-! | flees in the Dauphin building and make out the sugar returns, or send I for a questionnaire, fill it out and. | return it by mail, properly sworn to and signed, will go without sugar I for the remainder of the year. *and possibly for the duration of the war. The sugar returns must be in the 1 hands of the food administration be | fore next Monday. Regardless of the 1 amount of sugar a consumer has on I hand at the present time, he must j make the statement of it before ' Monday, or he cannot secure more i when it runs out.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH "HE'S OVER," IS CLARENCE BECK Allison Hill Sure That the Much-Beloved Athlete Will Strangle Kaiser Bill I j| PWbWWBB—. 1v. w CLARENCE BECK Hear the jolly news, by heck— In France has landed Clarence Beck; Now let the demon Huns cut loose; Thi husky boy will cook their goose. "He's over" was the shrill mes sage carried over Allison's Hill to day. Who is over? Why, Big Clarence, of course. When you say "he" out on the Hill everybody knows who is meant. There never will be but one Clarence, say the youngsters who used to follow him in regiments like they did the Pied Piper of Hamlin. The greatest athlete ever produced in Harrisburg, perfect at nearly every sport, and modest as a June bride, sent a letter to Mother and Father at their home in Summit street when he was still at sea but nearing shore, the first word since he sailed, and what do you suppose i Clarence confessed to, why, having tonsilitis. "That was the only thing ever bothered him" explained Mrs. Beck to-day, "but it never bothers him long." And sure enough writes Clarence: "I am in tip-top shape now, though I spent a couple days in the hospital. Say, Mother, I never knew the ocean was so darned big until we started over on it. Yes, we are having an enjoyable time but we sure would like to see land; seems as though we'd never get there. Hoping you are well and in the best of spirits, your son Clar ence. P. S. Don't worry about me because X will come home in good shape." A few hours after receiv ing this Mr. Beck got the usual gov ernment card simply saying that Clarence Beck was ashore safely. The famous athlete who did so much to put Harrisburg Tech on the map is with Penn State unit. No. 529. At the declaration of war he had already made good in athle tics and scholarship at State but he was one of the first to enlist in the ambulance corps. At Camp Crane in Allentown he continued his varied triumphs in track and field and just before sailing he was pre sented a championship medal for boxing, the most recent activity ac quired and they who know Clar ence's ability to pick up something new can figure that he will be mid dle weight champion of the trenches before the war is over. Swartz Boys' Battery Stars in Central I. and S. League The Central Iron and Steel League, which has developed some of the 1 rarest baseball talent in Harrisburg. i continued its schedule last evening ; with a battle between Mill No. 2 and | the Giants, resulting 11-6, in favor of i No. 2. The famous Swartz battery [ worked for the visitors, Allen and j Major being in the points for the I Giants. This game brought the club | standing up to the following aver j ages: W. L. Pet.

M. C. A. This fast com pany have not met defeat artd it goes without saying that the players will make a desperate effort to trim the Steel League celebrities. Burnham had no trouble beating the Altoona I shops twice and, fans will most likely j nee very high-class ball on Thiirs- I day. [[around the bases i 1 Instead of playing on their nerves as other sports do, trapshooting steadies the nerves, refreshes those who shoot, rests their eyes and they return to work much benefited by the exercise and do their work properly. This is the conclusion ar rived at by William C. Pritchard, president of the National Store Spe cialty Company, near Lancaster, which does a large manufacturing of fine weighing scales. For years baseball was the chief source of amusement during the noon period but finding that the employes got so excited that they could not do justice to their work he substituted trapshooting. This seems to be .ideal, steadying the nerves instead of demoralizing them. Quite a num ber of banking institutions, espe ciallj in the middle west, have fol lowed this lead by the Specialty company, and the idea will grow every year. Maumaux appears to be the "jinx" for the Fore River Club. "Al" has lost all the games he worked in. Late trains bear no hardships for Texas ballplayers. Eighteen play ers of San Antonio. Texas, made a 100-mile trip to Corpus Christi in two hours and thirty minutes in nine aeroplanes. The trip was made without mishap and the boys were on time for the game. It was the first time for practically all of the players to e\>er travel through the air. Pitcher Gene Wright of the Day ton Western Association team in 1901 pitched two no-hit games in succession. It was September 1 that he held the Columbus team hit less and without a run. Again, on September 4, Wright, the giant, pitched his second hitless game with in a week. Grand Rapids players were the victims and failed to make a hit or score a run. This r'ec&rd is unprecedented in the annals of baseball. Cy Yoitng, in 1904, came within an ace of accomplishing the feat, when, on April 30, against the Washington team he held them hitless in the last seven innings of a game he pitched after called in to relieve Winters. On May 5 he pitched his memorable game against the Athletics—a perfect one. In his nexl game, which was against the Detroits, the great Young held them hitless for the first six innings, which made 22 consecutive hitless innings. Outfielder Hugh High, who was sold by the New York American club to the Athletic club, but refused to report to the latter and threatened to go to a shipyard if that deal was persisted in, has now been sold to the Red Sox, with whom he will probably play. President Charles Comiskey has a soft spot In his heart for Nick Altrock and when the veteran south paw was sent into pitch for Wash ington against the White Sox in a recent game Commy was greatly interested and even lent a hand in the reception given Nick by his old time admirers. "I'll always remember Nick for that game he pitched for me in the long ago, when the city series be tween the Sox and the Cubs ended 7 and 7." said Comiskey. "I went to my pitchers the day of the last game. The Cubs were leading us by one battle and I wanted to se lect the one twirler who would do the best for me. "Whenever I approached a pitch er and asked him how he felt I d pars him by if he started to stutter, I finally came to Nick. "Do you fgel as if you could win to-day, Nick?" I asked. "You bet I do," he replied heart lly. "Alright, then. There s a bonus in it for vou if you do. And he won it. There were few greater than Altrock when he was in his prime." From the Garden of K". i comes word that Ichiya Kumagao has been eclipsed as the tenrrts champion of Japan. According to Lieut-Col. Nor man E. Brookes, the Australian sta% who is assistant director of local re sources of Mesopotamia, the new tennis potenate of the land of cherry blossoms is Shimidzu, whom he played at Calcutta. Dieut-Col. Brookes will be remembered as the Antipodean star of the Davis cup matches, in which he and the late Anthony F. Wilding, who died at the Dardanelles, were beaten by Maurice E. McLoughlln at Forest I Hills. He points out that when this war is over the Japanese will have to be reckoned with in the DaVis cup matches. "While In Calcutta. I indulged in a a little tennis and golf, and was fortunate in having an opportunity of plaving with the Japanese cham pion, Shimidzu. I did not have the i pleasure of playing a single with j him. as my physical condition was hardly up to that standard. I was much struck by his play and one of the first questions I asked him '< was, 'Have you ever seen Harry I Parker play?' But he said, 'No. he j had never nYet him.' The reason whv I asked him this question was because of the striking resemblance his game bore to Harry Parker'a— the same peculiar grip and the same aclions. His service is distinctly weak, but otherwise liis game is sound in every respect. His forehand stroke has that same doceptlve de livery which keeps you guessing un til the. last moment as to which way it Is coming. "He is more at home at the back lot the court, but when occasiou de- mands he takes the net, and can volley very well, and is excellent overhead. There is no doubt that after the war is over the Japanese will make a bold bid for the Davis cup." Pipe Benders' Barrage Gets Pitcher Windowmaker A team representing the Saw Mill was a pipe for the Projectile Forge club of the Pipe and Pipe Bending Works last evening, being smoked out to the tune of 20-3. The Pipe fellows blew mouthfuls of black smoke provided by one of Mr. Tracy's largest stacks immediately at Pitcher Windowmaker, twirler for the Saw Mill, forming a smoke barrage so dense that the enemy pitcher could not see to make a hole in a window, let alone make a window. Mr. Win dowmaker was assisted back of the plate by Catcher Noggle, who was j busy all evening as a hen treading on red-hot billets. The winning bat tery were Lloyd" and Beach.

State Game Commission to-day on petition of sportsmen of the coun ties. In some cases all requirements in regard to advertising had not been complied with but an extension was granted whereby these counties can be put on the list with others. This action is the most sweeping ever taken by the Game Commission and while there were some protests made by mail and wire they were with drawn when it was found that vir tually the whole state was to be clos ed in order to prevent extermination of the bird. About twenty counties were closed to the hunting of quail, wild turkeys I or ring necked pheasants and deer! on petition, some of them asking ex tensins of closed periods previously authorized. Auxiliary game preserves were au thorized in Clarion, Bucks and Lu zerne counties. * The reports showed much activity by game protectors in arresting fish and game law violators, confiscation of arms owned by aliens and enforce ment of the dog law.

President Tener, who is attending the gather ing uf the antlered tribe,* refused to deny or confirm the report.
