LAST FRAY CALLED IN THIRD Incle. t Learned Pitch the Ark. Fntls n Deslr to Tearh novrkra to Vlny Water Base Ball. After watching the Insects from Wichita cnvort aiound the runway with disagree able frequency during the first six rounds of the opening battle yesterday. Pa Rourke's brave and fearless athletes, who ars practicing: to return o fiuraiw fight for their fatherlands, turned with vicloua spirit and transformed the mas terly retreat they had been conducting Into a victory during the last three in nlngs. Our side copped the battle, 4 to 3. as a result of the maneuver and the second game went to the weather man, so that Omaha stands one game to the good. Jesse Garrett, the sartorial sensation of Butte, performed prodigiously and with much eclat In the first act. In addition to heaving the pill successfully he busted a double in the ninth and scored the run which counted the victory. He was op posed by a gent by the name of Scott, a tall, lanky youth, who, strange t say, does not come from Death valley Mr. Scott waa all right Until the seventh, when he blew up and continued to blow until he had let the combat trickle from his grasp. The second game was started with Red Styles opposing Walter Slagle, formerly of Omaha. Just as .the game staraj l the weather started, too. Walter was happy, as he was in bis element, having started on his base ball career when the ark went Journeying. He could be seen grinning mirthfully while the other athletes floun dered around vagrantly. But he was out of luck. The weather became so bum that Umps Barr called time. Aiter twenty minutes of leaking the weather ceased and the fray resumed. But the weather was not to be thwarted. It commenced again and this time the umps told Wal ter to chase himself and take his mates with him. Wlches Thnmn Gnrrett. The Wlches opened the first game by thumping Jesse quite out of proportion with their abilities. Tydeman opened with a double and scored on O'Rourke's drive to center. In the second round they scored another when Henry singled, went to second when Scott was passad and counted es Tydeman'a double to left. The other foreign score was made In the fifth. when Nicholson was bumped between the pantry, and the dining room with a pitched ball. He swiped second and counted on O'Rourke's Infield hit, which escaped Thomas and Krug. Tn the meantime Mr. Scott was doing nicely and Omaha had failed to count. But in the seventh the Rourkes started to count.. It was high time they did. Thomas singled over second and went to second on Krueger's Infield out He scooted clear home when Garrett's rooler rolled unmolested between Rapp and Fltzsimmons. In the subsequent stanza Thomason singled to right and he and the Prussian prince were safe when Fltzsimmons choose Thomason on a fielder's choice and made a punk choice.

With the season of 1!14 ncartng Its end and his team in last place Charlie Hersog has practically given up the fight for this year and Is devoting most of his time to planning the reconstruction of the Cincinnati team for the season of 1915. During the early part of the season the Reds made an excellent showing, bobbing up In the first division and stick ing there for a considerable length' of time. Little by little they settled down and are now at the foot of the ladder. Cincinnati fans have all the confidence In the world in Herzog and are confident that he will organize a team that wUl be heard from for next season.

Aug. 29. Chicago and Ne Tork divided a double header here today. the locals winning the first, 1 t 0, and losing the second, 6 to 7. Jimmy Johnston, the utility second baseman of the locals, was largely re sponsible for Chicago losing the second combat. Ills three errors all aided the visitors, who bunched their hits behind these mtsplays. Mathewson, on the other ha.'id, pitched In flue form with the exception of the seventh inning, when Chicago threatened to tie tho count. In this inning three sharp singles In a row, a double, m er ror and a sacrifice fly put Chicago but one run behind the league leaders. Chicago scored their first run In the fourth, when Saler hit the sign board In right field for a homer, his sixteenth of the season. Sepoud Hard Fought. The second game was one of the hard est fought and most exciting seen on the west side this reason. The crowd also was one of the largest of the season, and became so unmanageable during the sec ond game, that It was necessary to stop the game for fifteen minutes whUe police reserves were summoned. During the excitement some spectator in the crowd hurled a bottle ajid a young man was hit on the head. Inflicting a deep rut. Score first gnmo. R.H.E.

It Is also certain that the foot ball games of 1915 will be staged on the new field, which will accommo date about 9,0ii0. All that will remain to complete the transfer of athletic activi ties from Percy field In th valley to Alumni field on the campus will be tlvn erection of a stadium for th base ball fiold and ths laying out of th grounds.

Uses Many Fords for Its Salesmen In ths cltysf Detroit Is a larg and sucj csssful publlo utlUty corporation whleU generates and sells electric current for light and power. It Is said that electric ity may be bought cheaper there than In any city of its sis In th United States. This Is a good thing for the city, as cheat) power Is a magnet of remarkable pull, which draws manufacturers, large and small. In droves. It Is also good for th company, as Its product finds a ready; market. Tha Edison company is guided by an, abl and far-seeing management, who have placed it In a comaiandlng position. As new apparatus has been added to meet th demsnds of a community of phenomenal growth, It has become th policy of the company to standardise Its) equipment. Such a concern cannot afford to tak chances on a long continued shut-down of Its machinery, and It Is compelled to carry a number of spare parts to rep 1 to those that become broken or wont out. This stock of spare parts Is reduced to a minimum, however, by th poller of standarlztng the equipment, and ths money saved In this way Is on of th items which make It possible to sell current at a low rate. When automobile equipment was in stalled, ths management naturally se lected the Ford as tha standard for cr tain kinds of work. Out of 106 cars of all descriptions, including trucks, owned by this corporation, forty-three are Fords twelve of them purchased sine th first of ths year. Th already great number of small cus tomers of the company is being dally In creased by ths efforts of a doien solici tors traveling In Forda Th salesmen are assisted In their work by a corps ct engineers, whose business It is to mak tests snd report to prospective customer th advantages of Installing elsetrlo cur rent for power.
