Normander during the first in- ning was unfamiliar with the mound, but after the first the hospital was held scoreless for the rest of the game through the brilliant fielding of Dugas at third, shuitting off two runs at_the plate. Taftville was unable to see Harri- gan's benders the first three innings, but in the fourth, two runs were scored by clever hitting, including Mulholland’s triple, the longest hit of the game. In the fifth, seventh and eighth Taftville scored one run. Kid DeCelles, of the winning team, took away the batting honors with three hits credited to him. Danny Murphy’s whip was too good to allow any stealing whatso- ever go on, and time after time he pegged runners out at second. The athletic contest was postponed and will take place next week.

AVERAGED 91:07 MILES IN OMAHA RACE Rickenbacher Made the 300 in 3:17:- 37:20—Led From. the Start. Speedway, Omaha, Neb., July 4.— Eddie Rickenbacher won the 300 mile auto race today. The-time 3:17:37:20, average 91:07 miles an hour. Ricken- bacher led from the start and his ad- vantage was never in danger. O'Donnell was second, Tom Orr third and H. Donaldson fourth. Rick- enbacher’s share of the $15,000 prize money was $6,500. Rickenbache: laurel’'s were won with comparative ease. He kept ahead of the fleld throughout the three hnudred mile grind. Before the race Tom Orr broke the world’s record for five miles, negoti- ating it in three minutes flat. The former record was 3:11, 3-4 made by Caleb Bragg at Los Angeles. Though eighteen drivers were enter- ed but seven arrived in time to stort. They were Rickenbacher, O'Donnell, Alley, H. Donaldson, Orr, Joe Coop- er and Chandler. W. \. was "per- mitted to enter the race after the iirst hundred miles. ' Cooper and Chand- ler went out of the race on account of burned bearings after they had passed the 100 mile mark.

MAKING SUGAR AN ANCIENT AS WELL AS MODERN INDUSTRY. Over $500,000,000 Spent Annually in the United States For Candy and Sweetmeets Alone. The world has had a for many ages. People have been eat- ing sugar from time immemorial it Wwould seem, and growing sugar cane is an industry so old that it ante- dates ‘the Christian era by many cen- turics. At least that is what we gath- er from an article by Edward Albes in the May number of the Monthly Bulletin of the Pan American Union, Washington, D. C., which gives a com- Prehensive account. of the cane sugar industry in the Americas, and in, dentally embodies an_interesting re- sume of what is actually known of the history of the industry throughout the world from the very dawn of civil- ization to the present. “Sclentists admit they do not know just where the sugar cane originated, —he writes—“for nowhere has it been found in its wild state. It has been a cultivated product for many centuries, and the first mention to be found in written records is in the sacred books of the Hindu. I have crowned thee with a shooting sugar cane, so that thou shalt nc be averse to me,’ was written man; centuries before the Christian era’ In the train of Alex- ander the Great during his Asiatic “sweet tooth” conquests were some observant per- sons who made notes what they | hen mnot too busy killing off t) and in these written doc- writers the Ind bees weil uments, rding to later who fell heir to them, is told story of 'a reed growing _in which produces honey without ane was evidently Thus sugar known in that country before 320 F “As the the cane, the first which mention is centrated cane juice called ‘gur* in India (‘gud’ in Sanskrit), and this seems to have been known as a food | from prehistoric times. That its man ufacture was @ well established in- | dustry in India in the seventh cen- | is attested by the old Chinese the Pen-tsao-kang-mu h states that the Emperor T'ai- manufactured kind product of of sugar of made was a con- tsung, who reigned from 627 to 650 A. D, sent some of his people to Behar to learn the art of sugar mak- ing. The manufacture of suger even in the early centuries of the Christian era was not restricted. to the mere evaporation of the juicegeof the cane to dryrress, for the ‘Arabs and Egyp- tians _had soon learned how to purify raw sugar by recrystallization, and incidentally how to make a great vari- €Ly of sweetmeats, or candy, out of the product.” The author tells of the introduction of the cane into Sicily by the Arabs in 703, whence it was taken to Africa, '(n Spain, and all along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, as well as to the islands and borders of the Indian Ocean. The Crusaders found exten- sive sugar-cane plantations in Trip- oli, Mesopotamie, Syria, Antioch, and Cyprus, and by the fourteenth century the cane was being cultivated in every part of the known world where soil and climate were propitious. It came to South America by being introduced into Brazil by the Portu- guese, who brought it from Madeira, and thence it spread to nearly all the other countries of that continent. Co- lumbus is said to have brought it to the island of Santo Domingo, whence it spread to Mexico and Cuba. It was introduced into the other islands of the West Indies as soon as they came under European domination. The first Sugar cane came to Louisiana by be- ing sent to the Jesuits from Santo Domingo, in 1751, eome English au- thorities giving the date as 17 Although practioally all of the coun tries of the Pan American Union cul- tivate the cane, Cuba is the greatest producer of cane sugar, not only in the western hemisphere but in the world. The total production of the western hemisphere for. the 1913-14 season amounted to 4,919,814 tons, of which Cuba produced 2,597,732 tom or nearly 52 per cent. The total cane- sugar production of the world wag 9,773,348 tons, and deducting the 2,262,« 600 tons produced by India and locally consumed, it is seen that Cuba pro- duces nearly 35 per cent of the cana sugar that is avallable in the markets of the world. The United States is the greatest sugar consuming country of the world, In 1913, its total consumption amounted to 3,743,139 tons—including cane, beet, and maple. This is a per capita con- sumption of $5.4 pounds per annum., Much of this is consumed in the form of candy, over $500,000,000 being spent for that sweet commodity in_the United States every year. New York is the largest candy-consuming cented in the world, and to supply that city alone it would take five trains of 6@ cars, each loaded to the Umit with candy, every week in the year if it had to be shipped in on a railroad.
