The announcement that the organiza tion of the league has been effected will be welcome news to fans all jirminfl flip oirrilif In acctxrcarce with the call issued some days ago for a meeting of the lans in Spartanburg Anderson yostor flay sent three delegates to that city tfrese being Porter A. Whaley, secre tary of the Anderson Chamber of Com merce, F. Ml Burnett, secretary of the Soiderson Y. M. C. A., and Watson Bell The Intelligencer staff. "The meeting was called to order in the Finch Hotel yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock with W. M. Floyd of Spartanburg presiding. Mr. Stouch wfes the first manager to address the meeting and he assured his hearers that Greenville was ready and willing to enter the league; had a team ready to take the field and would hold up aer end of any financial undertakings, lie favored a 60 game schedule with resiricuons -so mat an iuwus wuuiu gat a square deal. Porter A. Wihaley of Anderson next addressed the meeting. He sa: u that Anderson wanted baseball and is will ing to support a league provided the taams would be so managed thai, no ijunaway race would take place. Dr. J. C. Creech of Gaffney was the Bext speaker and lie said that Gatfney, if given a square, deal would put a team in the field edqual to any in the league. He said that Gaffnev has all the money they had already in sight. Report for Spartanburg W. M. Floyd said that his town was ready to en ter the league and under the leader ship of ' Legs" Martin would have a strong aggregation to represent the 'f)L^ty of Success." "3Tie next matter taken up was the selection of a president and a secre tary. Ed. H. DeCamp of Gaffney, ed itor of the Gaffney Ledger and one of the best known baseball fans in the State, was unanimously elected presi dent of the new league and Watson foil, city editor of the Anderson In tilligencer, was elected secretary. fft was decided that the league should open on Thursday, June 25 *rtth Anderson playing in Greenville aad Spartanburg playing in Gaffney. The season will continue until the Wednesday following Labor day which VU1 be September 5. This will make a 8?sson of 68 games. 'M the meeting yesterday it was agreed that no player would be al iased to participate in a game, should he: have played as many as 25 games in a?y professional organization. It was further agreed that each club would give a guarantee of $35 per game with a.raln guarantee of $20, visitor to have the privilege of 50 per cent ot the gata receipts. One of the most important matters decided yesterday was that of the fourth of July, games. It was agreed that each town would have one game on. this !day. Spartanburg will play in Gaffney on the morning of the fourth, Gaffney playing In Spartanburg on that afternoon. Anderson will play in firppnvillp in tho mnrr.inp' nnH flrppn ville will come here for the afternoon game. It was deeded that a meeting of the directors of the league, consisting of each town's president, the presiden! and secretary and vice-president of the league, would take place in Greenville next Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock to formally adopt a schedule. This meet ing will be held at the Imperial hotel and the.arrangements will all be com pleted at this meeting for the opening series of the league. The last matter attended to before the adjournment of the meeting was the selection of W. M. Floyd of Spar tanburg as vice-president o? the league aud the meeting came to a close. The following are those who attended tlu meeting: J. B. Ramsey, Legs Martin of Spartanburg; J. Gibbes Pridmore, Dr. J. C. Creceh, Dr. V. H. Lipscomb, L. S." Wood and J. F. Fincken of Gaff ney; Thomas Stouch and W. M. Owens of Greenville; F M. Burnett, Porter A. WLaley and Watson Bell of Ander son. If there had been any doubt before this meeting concerning Gaffney's en tering the league this doubt was dis pelled at yesterday's meeting. Ed De Camp's town succeeded in showing more ready money ana more casn in hand than any other town in the cir every town in the league would know that they were up against a 'real cuit and the Gaffney fans said that ball club when Gaffney takes a chance. The league is certainly to start on Thursday week and it will be fast baseball. It will be conducted along conservative lines but the new league will prove equal in many respects to the old Carolina Association. The Anderson team will leave this morning for a trip which will continue until the season opens here. The first game will be played this afternoon against Elberton, lollowed by a game at Lavonia and then the team will conclude their trip with a series in Athens, Ga. Then they will go to Greenville and open the season. The league is now assured and it is up to Anderson fans to support it. That there will be fast baseball here this summer should be a matter of congratulation. WEST END. Mrs. Fannie Thomson is on a visit to Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Bradley.

Fhornton, awealthy ship owner, - :ries to arrange a match between his ' secretary, Fujler, and Vera, his daugh :er, who, however, loves the first offl- | :er of one of her father's vessels, ? 3iles. This ship arrives jLn port with \ its Captain J11, who forwards a letter toFornton by Giles adv/sing his em ployer to place the bearer in charge jf the ship during his illness. He also writes on a separate note the fact that 1 :he ship is in bad condition, with dan ger of wreck and loss of life unless it > at once repaired. Fuller receives the .otter, and, eager to collect the insur ince on the damaged vessel which ;hrough his marriage with the own er's daughter he will eventually obtain ?e orders the ship out at once with the Irst officer in command. The ship 1 eaves, and ?he next morning Vera is J 'ound to be missing. The most thor- ] 1..~ l )ugh searcn rails to give any uiue - ler whereabouts, and in despair Forn- , on and Fuller call on Kate Kirby to 1 ilace the case in her hands. In reach- ] g into his pocket for a photograph of < /era requested by Kate, Fuller drops (( 111 envelope addressed to himself ^at ] mother address than the one he had J previously stated to Kate. Kate ob- < serves this discrepancy, and after-the > wo leave rushes out and at once goes j to the address on the envelope. Ar- I ived there, she finds a woman and a :hild. As Kate is examining the wom m to determine her relationship to "u-ller, he enters, and realizing that <ate has learned of his dual life umps through the window and es :apes. By diligent application, Kate J races him to Boston, where he hovers tbout the wharves, destitute, hungry, md exhausted. Kate here introduces he new scientific marvel and trans- 1 nits Fuller's photograph by telephone ] ;o the Boston police, who secure him < ind hold him until Kate's arrival. In ( ;he meantime Kate has learned that i ?killer is a dope fiend, and she tempts ( u'm to confess his plot with the prom- < se of cocainc. Fuller, who has been ( without the drug for several days, is :razed by the sight of it, and prompt y tells all. He surrenders the private etter from the Captain describing the ship's condition. When he has bared i he whole sinister plot, he holds out 1 lie hands for the longed-for drug, but Cate Kirby, knowing that further in- * lulgence in the vice would cost his ' ife, destroys it under ehr foot. In fu ious, insane rage, Fuller springs up >n Kate, but after a tense moment, a hrilling rescue is accomplished. Kate iow advances the theory that Vera sloped with Giles on the ship. It is 1 lecessary to reach the vessel and 1 ivarn Giles of its perilous condition. <ate Kirby locates the ship off Nor- 1 'oik, overtakes it, and tells Giles to f soil for port at once, describing the * vessel's dangerous? weakness. Giles, ? telieveing Kate's story is a ruse actu- ' ited by Fornton to bring his daughter osck and possibly arrest Giles, laughs 1 it her tale, and tells her he will not : xturn. Kate swears she is telling the 1 ruth, but Giles persists on continuing :he trip. Kate is forced to remain on ( .he ship in the knowledge that at any i Election Notice Lowndesville, 8.

Olemson College, June 14. One of the ways in which the poultryman can reduce the cost of living is by "canning" eggs at this season of the year, Eggs are plenti ful in South Carolina now and can be only sold at prices which are low in comparison with those of winter. For this reason the farmer usually has more on hand than he. can.dispose of readily. How to keep them -fresh for months is described by F. C. Hare State poultry demonstration agent in co-. operation with Clemson College, One of the bpst and simplest methods of preserving or "canning" eggs Is to place them in a solution of "gater glass", or ? ?3? .!Hnn4-?-w TKJo Jo o Troncnoranf. II fcjUUIUlII QlIIU(VtU> X1UO i(7 O Aiwuoj/uiguv 14 quid that loofts like thin, strained hopey and is used commercially in manufacturing' mucilage. It can be secured from a drug gist. This liquid covers the shell of an egg with an impervious coating of glue and prevents bacteria-laden air from penetrating inside the shell and rendering the egg unfit for, food. Eggs treated with sodium silicate can easily be kept for nine months in good condition, provided they are perfectly fresh when placed in this solution. Secure a suitable glazed earthen ware crock with cover-aflve gallon butter crock is a good size?the glazing to prevent the solution from being absorbed. Secure one quart or more of sodium silicate or water glass. Thoroughly rinse the inside of the crock and the cover with boiling water to kill any germ life that may be there. Boil three or four gallons of water and allow to cool. When cold, make a mixtui-e of nine parts of this water and one part of the sodium silicate. Fill the crock two-thirds full with the preserving mixture. As the eggs are gathered daily, put them into the crock. Do not keep eggs for several days before putting into the solution, as it is very important that the eggs go in the day they are laid. The eggs must on no accoont be J washed before being placed in the crock and cracked eggs or those with thin shells that might be broken must be discarded Eggs may be putin the crock until it is three-fourths full, bearing in mind, how ever, that at least one inch of the liquid must be above the top layer of eggs Place the cover on the crock and set in a moderately cool place to prevent excessive evaporation of liquid. Eggs should be ex amined from time to time and more boiled water added if necessary to keep the solu tion above the top layer of eggs. For general culinary purposes water "I"'" QoxTcofa onunl tn nrHinnrv frosh orrirn 6ltwo ^ ? ? j -- -on? They maybe poached, fried, scrambled or used in making cakes or biscuits, just as they come from the crock. However, if it is desired to boil them stick a pin in the large end of the shell and make a small hole to allow the gas to escape when the egg is heated. The water-gluss solution closes the pores of the egg shell and acts like a tin can around tomatoes. If an opening is not raado the shell will crack in boiling for the heated gas to escape. Tho cost of preservir t? eggs in this way is .about 0110 and an-nalf ccnts per dozen. By canning eggs In the spring when they are. plentiful, spending ono and one-hal [ cents per dozen to do so, and holding them until winter, one could probably get twice as much per dozen for them as he could get by selling tlieni now, Tho yolks of these eggs stand up like those of eggs just taken from the nest and the whites will beat into a firm froth.
