While Prov. Constable Johnston of Kitchener and another officer were motoring to Walkerton on Friday last the}r encountered car trouble on the detour near Mildmay and stepped to fix it.

In the last half of the eighth, with a man on first, Tucker drove in the winning run with a two- base hit. Timely hitting on the part of both teams was a feature of the game. Home runs were hit by “Norm” Ritchie, Bill Irwin and “Punk” McDonald, in each case with two men on bases. Every man on the winning team had one or more hits to his credit. In one of the best and most’ closely contested games this season the Bach- elors broke the tie with the Stone Plant and stepped into third place last Saturday evening. The game was not attended as well as it ‘mlght have been owlng to the threatening aspect of the weather but those that did attend were cerainly well repaid. In a sudden death elimination game on Monday evening the Stone Plant put the Benedicts out of the championship play-offs to the tune of 18â€"6, and the score is a good indication of the play, and the diflerence in the two teams. The Benedicts could not do anything right and looked like a team that had never played together before. Mchirr in the box could not seem to get going and turned in his poorest game this year. Twice he walked two consecutive men in an inning on almost straight The final score was 11 to 10 after the game had gone to eight innings, and the score was tied up three tithesâ€"44 at the end of the third, 7-? at the end of the fifth and 10-10 at the end of balls, and let in three runs by wild pitches. ome idea of the play may be gained from the fact that the Stone Plant had 18 runs with only eight safe hits, two of which were triples and one a double. They got six walks. The. Benedicts had the edge in hits, having nine safeties of which one was a triple but they did not come through when hits were needed. This win gives the Stone Plant the right to meet the Bachelors in the three-game series for the champion- ship. The first game will be played this evening (Thursday) and the second tomorrow (Friday).

While the score seems greatly one-sided the play was not altogether that way. The locals held the fast tra- velling Fergus outfit to a 7-1 score to the end of the third quarter, but then condition and experience told and the home team ran in another seven tallies.

The United States has attained indus- trial maturity and should be able to stand on her own feet in competition with the world, but Canada is still in the formative stage industrially, and it a higher tariff will foster industry there, who can object to that?” There is the whole case for the Ben- nett programme in a nutshell. The Fords have factories in Canada and in the industrlai overlordship of the Unit- ed States over this Dominion and the world at large.

And, of course, rough play and the dangers of the game are loaded with all the blame. But has it ever occurred to the wise ones that if manhandling and fear of injury could affect a sport, rugby and football would has disappeared from the map years ahead of lacrosse. For one football game can produce more serious accidents than a whole season of lacrosse.
