We couldn’t afford to buy Candy from other manufacturers. Wouldn't be sure of the quality, and we would have to pay too much. So we put in this big Candy Plant, engaged the best Candymaker and instructed him to use only the best materials that money could buy. What is the result?

This will be a great blow to the team. Tnere will be many shaking of heads over this deal and there will be many who will ques- tion whether the Reds have strengthened. Radbourne, the once famous base ball player, is lying at the point of death at his home, in Bloomington, Ill. He was at- tacked with convulsions Wednesday night. His brain has been more or less affected for a year or longer, and about a year ago he lcst the sight of one eye by the accl- dental discharge of a gun. He was one of the greatest pitchers of the country. Von der Ake at Indianapolis, Chris Von der Ahe of the St. Louis Base Ball Club and President John T. Brush held a private conference at Indfanapolis yes- terday. Neither cared to talk of the de- tails of the meeting. President Brush said that Mr. Von der Ahe wanted io strengthen his club ard needed some assistance. Sev- eral deals were discussed. The most im- portant one was the purchase of the Cleve- lard Club. Mr. Von er Ahe went to Cleve- land several days ago prepared to make an offer for several crack players of that ie club, and ‘nis visit to Indianapolis was for the purpose of securiag President Brush’s co-operation in buying out the club, dividing the players and putting a National League club in Indianapolis. Mr. Von der Ahe would neither affirm amateur record 3:15:59 Lawson started on his long-journey at a little after % o'clock, and when he finished there was an immense crowd of people waiting to give him the applause he de- served for his game effort. During the race his skates were worn off so much at the edges that he could hardly make the corners during the last ten miles, and but for this tact would undoubtedly have made the distance in much less time than he did. He was paced by Cassin, Hewes, and the champion of thé District and Maryland, Harry Stites, who helped him materially by their efforts. The Swede kept up a wonderfully steady pace, and did not vary a foot from the beaten track in his five hundred rounds of the track. When he tnished he was pretty’badly used up on ac- count of the terrible strain on his left foot, which is used more than the right one in making the corners, but considering the amount of enduranea nesesary to compftte = long distance, he, figished: compgrative- ly good. Lawson's breaking the amateur record for fifty miles as 1 the professional records for the oS o¢ between ten and fifty miles is regarded ‘as-a wonderful feat. The amateur record is held by Joe Dono- ghue, who made it before he entered the professional; ranks, white “the ‘professional records have stood. sinc 1879.
