Brunswick boys were out- clueed, but played i.

good game. Shanty Doyle caught a good game for the Blue Sox, and Horton in the box was never in better form. He pitched the best ball he has twirled tble season, and sent the Brunswick toys down as fast as they came to bat. Besides the catcher and pitcher there were three other members of the regular team, and the other four were Wildcats. The entire team played the game with few errors and the result would hav? been a shut out had not Willie Morris missed ball in the center fi-'Jti.

Willie is a star player and every time he went to the bat Sunday he dent the ball to Uie field. A sensational catch was made in the sixth inning by the right fielder for Brunswick. The visitors made few errors and were a gentlemanly lot of boys who would be welcomed to the city again at any time.

Watkins, state supervisor of bulld- jing and loan associations for Missouri, came to Carthage a few days ago to investigate the standing of the Security Building: of Rochester, N. who had a local agent in this city in the person of Larkiu Crump. The supervisor decided that the company was doing business in violation of the state law and had Mr. Crump arrested. Three counts are contained in tht two suits filed by the state supervisor.

That against Agent drump is a criminal prosecution for selling contracts prohibited by the state law governing building and loan association, and for carrying on the business without a state license. Mr. Crump was arrested on a state warrant and gave a bond of $300 for his appearance in court. The prosecuting attorney is of the opinion that Mr. Crump entered the employ of the company in good faith, not knowing that the company had failed to comply with the state law, or that the contracts offered by the company to its patrons were prohibited.

The state supervisor, Mr. Watkins. also filed a petition asking that a receiver be appointed to taKC charge of the assets of the Security Building company this city, and that the company be enjoim-J from selling contracts in Jasper county. As ground of action in this and the criminal action, the state super- vigor alleges in his complaint three charges against the Security Build- in company. First that the company has failed to file a cas i bond of $25.000 with the state treasurer, as required by law.

to guarantee their second, that the company has failed and neglected to file a certificate copy of th constitution a by laws with the secretary of state and take out a state license; that" the form of contract sold by the defendant coiiirany is prohibited by the state law governing building and loan associations. According to the specifications contained in the complau ts filed here, tne Security Building Co. of Rochester, N. Y. has no legal right to do business in the state, and unless the company changes the form of their a ntract, the company could not secure a state Ault Millinery Opening, Thursday.
