Hoed, the third baseman, al lowed Stoble to cross the plate for the first run. Taconnet scored again in the third. With one man down, Pratt banged out a three-bagger and came home when Loon hit to A. Reed. The next two men struck out. In the fourth, with one man out. Herd and lieedy both got singles and Herd landed on third. Willett was the second man out, Smith to Barney, Herd scoring. O’Brien was given a free pass. Pratt hit to A. Reed, who instead of throwing out the runner at first attempted to catch Bendy at the plate and lost. O'Brien was on third and played off a little too far and was caught napping. Tacjpunet scored five runs in the fifth. Loon started it by getting a walk. Higgins got a safe lilt. Loon stole third and came home when Stoble hit an infield grounder. Tib betts singled, scoring Higgins. On a bad error by Richards, Tibbetts and Stable scored and Herd reached third.

Leads Officers to Tree and Digs Up $2400 In Bills. 7 i New-York. July 23.—Drawn bark to the scene of his crime by a force he could not resist, August Eberhard, self confessed murderer of his aunt, Mrs. Ottillio Eberhard, a Vienese widow whom lie lured to a lonely spot in New Jersey a few days ago and shot to death was captured near Paterson, N. J., today and is now a prisoner In (he Hackensack jail What Interested the authorities most in the confession Eberhard made to them late today was the reason he gave for committing the crime Eberhard said that he was in love with a New York girl und that he needed money to marry her, so, know ing that his aunt had $2500, he plotted to kill her and steal the money. Eber hard says he also intended to kill his pretty cousin, Ottlllie Eberhard, to whom lie was engaged, so that nothing would stand in the way of ins marriage to the New York girl. The police have the name of the girl mentioned by Eberhard and she will bo brought to Hackensack cither tonight or tomorrow to tell what she knows of the murderer. Eberhard was found lying on the lawn of a residence just outside of Paterson. There was a wound in his right leg which the mur derer- ilrst said had been inflicted by Italians who attacked him, but which lie afterwards confessed was. inflicted by/himself so as-to make Uie police believe he had been wounded on the night his aunt was killed. When lie was placed under arrest lie told a most ingenious story to ac count for his disappearance after the shooting of his aunt. Eberhard said that on the night of the murder he tiad tried to defend his aunt from the attack of a party of Italians who fired upon them from ambush while they were walking along the tracks of the Kusquehana Railroad near Coalburg, N. J. The inquisitors did not believe this story and they kept Eberhard on the grill until lie weakened and made a confession. An important point in the confes-i sion was the statement by Eberhard that he had an accomplice in the mur der plot whom, he said, however, had no hand in the killing of Mrs. Eber hard. This man, who was one of Eber liard’s friends, has fled to the West and tlie police are looking for him. Eberhard said that lie had buried the money he stole from his aunt. He led detectives to a tree near I.lttle Falls and there dug up a bundle of $2400 in bills, the amount that was stolen. NOT MENTIONED IN REPORT..

Washington, July 23.—While no ofl^-. cial statement is obtainable at the state department in respect to the invesli-, gation which is being made of the, opium trade, it is known that several important reports have been received by the United States member of the joint international commission ap pointed to inquire into that question.. Dr. Hamilton Wright, one of the mem bers of the commission, is collecting information on the subject from the large cities of tills country. Although he admits that the trade in opium in the United Stiites is considerable. Dr, Wright, following precedent in such matters, declines to make public at tills time the details of the reports made to., him. His attention, he said, had been call- ed to a dispatch from Pittsburg to tbo effect that a report had been made that the use of opium in Pittsburg; wa,s ■•confined almost.entirely to thieves,, gamblers, immoral women, physicians and ministers.’• Dr. Wright sajd thaf lie had icccived a report on the sub ject from tlie police authorities' of Pittsburg, and while he did not care to discuss it, he felt it only just to say that it contained no reference what-,, ver to tlie use of opium by physicians or ministers.

Once a year, aitf<* Indian, garbed In the skin of a moun tain lion, which represents his god, whips such of tlie children of the com- munity as are between the ages of four and ten, both for the wrong they have done and the wrong they are go- M ing to do. The happiness of these children, who have paid the penalty of their misdoings for a year in advance, is difficult to estimate. The respect of the Indian boy for his elders, and his obedience to his parents, testifies to the efficacy of this treatment and suggests the wisdom of its introduc tion to the gilded youth of the metropolis.—Outing Magazine for July. It is said on the authority of those t versed in statistics that there are today 12,000,000 pupils on the actual rolls of the Sunday-schools and that they are distributed among 154,000 schools and taught by 1,500,000 teachers.

The Regal Buzz-Saw In Augusta Will Cut Up Regals In Sherburne Dailey’s Win dow on Saturday July 25th From 3 to 4 and 8 to 9 P. M. A shoe is only as good as its worst part. We are proving' to a good many people, by the use of tne famous Regal Buzz-Saw in our window, that the hidden parts of Regals parts which are very often the worst and weakest in other shoes—are honestly built for long wear and shape-retention. Some of the weak spots of shoes which are merely good-looking—weak spots which can not easily be detected before purchase are poor inner soles, which no consumer investi gates poor outer soles, which arc concealed beneath paint and varnish; poor lasting, which docs not take the stretch out of leather; poor stitching, which cuts partially through both, welt and insole. Such shoes are made to sell, not to wear. The Regal “Window of the Sole” proves before you buy that the particular Regal shoe that you are trying cn is built with genuine live Oak-Bark-tanned soles. The Regal Buzz-Saw opens up the whole shoe and shows you the make-up of every part.
