Ho stole sec ond mid on Hohe's muff of tho throw to cntch him, went right along tn third, scor ing a moment later on McAndrews' safo drive. Mao followed him home on Toman's three-sack drlvo down tho right foul line. Toman, however, wai caught at the pinto on Gondlng's dilvo to short and Herman forced Johnny. In tho seventh (Jenlnp walked nnd Flem ing bunted duo nbout ten feet down left foul line. The entire Miller Inlleld gathered nround It waiting for It to roll outside, but It didn't nnd Fleming was safe on first. Iluckloy sacrificed nnd I,ctchcr hit snfo, ecorlng Renins and Fleming. Sworm stedt took a brace, however, striking out tho next two men. In tho ninth, nftcr two were gone, Letcher Maverick Stories Fred Smith for that Isn't his name by several Inches is an cllglblo young mnn with u reputation ns clean and white us n porce lain bathtub and a frank way of siitlug down In the front parlor while tho light Is still burning that endears htm to mothers with daughters worth taking caro of. When Mr. Smith Is a girl's escort for tho even ing her parents retire at 0 o'clock and don't nwnken until It's Hum for breakfast. They don't even ask' her what tltuu she got home which Is the truo test. Mondny evening Mr. Smith and an al mighty nice girl living on North Eighteenth street rodn a pair of bicycles over to tho waterworks at Florence that thoy might get a look at tho moon from Its other side and discuss tho Interesting differences be tween a hat day nnd n cold one. Mr. Smith wore n cap which was his own, bloomers which belonged to his friend Hunt and n striped sweater which had been loaned him by an nthletlc young woman who boards where ho does. He looked real cute. Hut the sweater was a thick one nnd Mr. Smith warmed rapidly ns ho rode. Ho noted, too, with sonio nstnnlshmcnt that his skin seemod Irrltntod wherovor the sweater touched It, and hy tho time thoy started back from Florento ho was fairly burning with an Itch thut ho couldn't account for. Ho lunudlbly remarked to himself that ho would give a thousand dollars to scratch himself and later raised tho offer to twenty-five thousand. Twice he attempted to rub himself from outsldo tho torturing garment without tho girl noticing, but wns caught both times and given surprised looks that nearly sent him off his balance. Finally, when ho could enduro It no longer ho grow desperately enthusiastic over handicap blcyclo racing and porsuaded tho girl to tako three minutes start for a mile race, which he agreed to win or buy a box of Downey's best, Bcforo tho young woman had been thirty seconds on tho trail Mr. Smith had wriggled out of his madden ing garment nnd was scratching for dear Itfo whllu Mnrs winked and Venus blushed at his naked and Inflamed breast nnd arms. Hut Mars and Vonus woro not tho only stars In the heavens nnd among tho oth ers there was ovldently one pnrtlcularly un lucky for Mr. Smith, for as ho stood nnd combed himself with his fingernails a truck farmer drovo near with n colt that was skittish nnd scorned unfamiliar with statu ary, either animate or marble. It pranced violently to 0110 eldc 11 1 sight of Mr. Smith and nearly emptied tho wagon of tho old man who wns driving. Mr. Smith, being u ltutghtly young man and feeling In a measure to blame, offerod his assistance. Tho old man sug gested that ns tho colt was dangerously near the wire fence and tho wagon tilted at a decided nnglo nno should take the reins nnd tho other get nt the nnlmnl's head to got him quieted and Into tho road again. Obviously Mr. Smith was not tho one to get nt his hend, bo ho climbed Into tho wagon while tho owner went forward. Hut tho owner's foot slipped, ho rolled over tbo little embankment ami tho colt, doubly alarmed nt tho strange commotion, gnvo a mighty leap nnd started down tho road, zlg-ingglng wildly, nnd with Mr. Smith tugging Impotently nt tho reins. It was thrilling, even picturesque, was tho sight of that tall young man with Apollo's figure, clad nbnvn the waistline In only a flimsy undorshlrt. loose down tho front, standing up In the Jolting wagon, Jerking tho Hues madly nnd nlternatlng "Whoa horsey" with "dnmsuchabrute." Mr. Smith wanted to lot go, but couldn't, nnd ho wanted to got out, but couldn't. The colt had stnylng qualities and never rlncltened in speed. That specter of the night flow along tho quiet country road and llnally did Just what Mr. Smith least de siredovertook tho girl on tho bicycle. Sho was leaning over her wheel, ns close as possible to tho fence and when sho saw her escort dash by In that rig and In that npparel, or moro properly thnt lack of ap parel, the horrors of ghost stories nnd childish hobgoblins faded Into Insignificance. Sho didn't know whether to laugh or cry but decided that whlchover sho did had better bo done at home and before tho rumbling had died out down one fork of tho road she was pedaling for dear Ufa along another, which was the shortest route Into Omahn, Mr. Smith came home hy a longer route nnd Stewart connected safety and scored on' Hone's wild throw to catch McAndrews at first. Toman hit a hlsh one to "Hoot, Mon" McCrecdlo nnd It was nil over. The visitors camo right buck st tis In th second, tlclng the score. Ilraehrur got In front of tho ball nnd took llrst, went to sec ond on Inw's hit nnd crossed the plate on Cockman's long fly to Uenlns. In tho sec ond they made themselves obnoxious by getting In two doubles In succession, after one out, but that was all Just one run but It left them one to the good. After that the "Wizard" braced up and shut them out for the balanco of tho game. Oenlns distinguished himself by taking two long flics from Whlttrldge'a hat nfter hard runs. In fact, the entire loenl team put up as pretty a game as one could wish to see. Mow It llnpmiPd. Yesterday's game was tho last on the local grounds for three weeks and was wit nessed by n great crowd. Score: OMAHA. AJi. R. II. O. A. K.

U.-In n. doub'c header here today, the locals nddi d tvo victories, Including nnother shutom, 1 their credit. Wolfe's pitching aid iho ragged playing of the visitors In the last nnd many hours later. Ho had restored the farmer's colt nnd wagon without seri ous damage to anyone or anything con cerned, but his chest still burned and In his toul was a thirst for blood the blood of Guyer, his roommnte. For Mr. Smith had at last figured out the connection be tween Ouycr, the absence of a pepper shaker from tho dinner table that evening and the mighty Itching that had como upon him when ho warmed up In that sweater! And the girl? Well, Mr. Smith hasn't been over there yet. Thrifty .tlr. ClcrU. For ten years or moro he had rervrd tho Postofflcc department of the United States government at Omaha faithfully. His steady habits and strict attention to busi ness had become a proverb In the office, so that everyone was surprised when they heard tho postmaster request him to step Into the private ofhco for a short time. Several times had such requests been made In tho same tone and with tho snmo ap pearance of Indifference to be followed shortly with tho announcement that tho person called Into tho office wns found short In his accounts or had been unfaithful to tho trust reposed In him. Ono or moro of the men thus called up were at thnt tlmo In prisons, where tholr cupidity had led them and the first knowledge that their fellows had that anything was wrong was when the postmaster or his assistant had called them Into tho prlvnte office. So speculation was rife. "Tho last man wo ever thought would ho investigated," snld ono. "I will not believe It, no mntter what they say," responded ono of tho fomalo clerks. Tho regular routine of tho office was dls organized. One clerk suddenly had Im portant business In the oluco of tho assist ant postmaster. When there he strained his ears nnd on his return reported to his nwnltlng fellows that " Is up for something nbout a check, for I heard the assistant postmaster talking to him and was asking him nbout it." This frngmont renewed tho comments of the clerks and when tho clerk In question camo out of the office and resumed his usual work they could hardly believe their eyes. Whllo the clerk was In tho private office this conversation occurred: "Wo nnd on looking over tho list of checks for wnges paid that your cheek for that month Is not among them. Our rec ords show that It was Issued to you nnd wo do not understand why It has not been paid." "That Is easily explained," replied the clerk, "for I have never cashed It. You see when tho Ocrman Savings bank failed I had J400 In It and I am resolved never to trust a bank ngaln. Tho United States Is good enough for me, even If I do not get Interest, so whenever I have a check that I ran save I Just nio It nway. You will find several other checks In tho samo condition since that one. Now If I must cash It I can do so, but I be lieve that my money Is safer where It Is." Inquiry among other employes developed the fact that several of them had taken this means of saving money nnd that nn Increnslng number of checks are being held out by federal employes who would rather sacrifice Interest on their money to bo assured of absolute safety for tholr funds. fiielc Is Nn Ho Slorv. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Mugglesby keep beer 111 the basement of their house on West Cuming street. Mr. Mugglesby Insists that Mrs. Mugglesby needs It ns a tonic nnd three times n dny ho opens a fresh pint bottio nnd urges Mrs. Mugglesby to drink nil sho can. This amount varies from n thimbleful to a Jigger and Mr. Mugglesby finishes tho pint to keep It from spoiling. Saturday the Muggirshys wero surprised by the arrival of Mrs. Mugglesby's undo Obadlah, who Is a large, plain man from southern Kansas, with a farm so broad that he has to start beforo daylight If ho was to get off of it by night. He "stands high" In Knnsas, being considered one of tho best cltliens In his congressional dls trlct. Thereforo Mrs. Mugglesby hinted to Mr. Mugglesby thnt It might bo best to keep the euchro.deck "and such things" out of sight during the old gentleman's game were the features. Attendance, B.fXO.

Yesterday Mrs. Mugglesby came down to her husband s office and was alone. Ho seemed surprised. "Whoro's uncle?" he demanded. "I left him nt home. He said he believed he would rather nnp than come down when It Is so war" "Thunder!" "Why, Tom. What's tho matter?" "Oh, nothing, only I ordered a fresh cargo of 'tonic' sent up this afternoon, thinking tho coast would be clear whllo ho was down hero with you. Now he will hear tho man carrying It down tho back steps nnd the stuff will bo nil off when wo get home. He will como the Carrto Nntlon on It I expect, the minute he sees the ease." Mr. and Mrs. Mugglesby rode home In nervous silence. When they got In front of the house Mr. Mugglesby said ho guessed ho would saunter on up to the corner nnd get n cigar nnd Mrs. Mugglesby said she guessed ho wouldn't. Sho conjectured that ho would go right on In with her and help fnco tho music. And ho did. Ho felt like n candidate nbout to tnko tho Oriental and he had visions of an Irate nnd outraged old gentleman executing n sundnnco on tho kitchen floor, tomahawking a fresh bottio every trip around but ho pushed the door open anyhow. Undo Obadlah was there, but ho had no tomahawk. Ho waa sitting nt one sldo of n smnll tnblo In the kitchen. Opposite him snt n young man whom Tom had hired to tidy up tho hack yard. On tho tablo between them stood four bcor bottles empty nnd two moro that had reached low tide. Thero wns also a plato of cheese and some cookies that Mrs. Mugglesby was saving (or had Intended to save) for n later occa sion. When Mr. and Mrs. .Mugglesby en tered Undo Obadlah was reaching ncross tho tnblo. earnestly tapping "the hired mnn" on tho hrenst ns ho explained tho reedtcknlus folly of trying to mnke good grass grow In clay soli. "Why, Uncle!" gasped Mrs. Mugglesby when sho saw tho layout. "Why, Uncle!" sniggered Mr. Mugglesby. Tho person addressed nroso with n pleased smile and, whilo tho young man was mak ing n tumultuous getaway, remarked: "Hy Jlng, folks, this Is tho best Irrlgatln' my old throat has had slnco tho Kansas City convention Inst summer. I been tnkln' a nip or two at tho saloon nround tho corner every dny since I been here, but I wont eiiHy for fear you folks was temper ance. I most yelled when I seo that brewery's hnnd come luggln' In that ense this nfternoon. Let's open n couplo more bottles nnd lommc buy the next load." Last night when they wero alone Mr. Mugglesby said to Mrs. Mugglesby: "Hore nfter, my dear, wo'll take tonic when wo please and risk It's being all right with whoever Is around. I'm convinced that these Kansns folks aro Just ns pnrched ns they look." "It Snim.lx to Me." H. K. Hownrd, city salesmnn for a local Jobbing hotiBe, learned something about Juy blrds during tho recent hot spell. Ono of tho warm mornings when Mr. Hownrd wns sprinkling his lawn ho heard a Jay crying In evident excitement. Tho noise did not pleaso him and ho endeavored to scare the bird away by turning a stream of water from tho hoso upon It. The bird was nt some distance when It was struck by tho wntor, but Immediately upon feeling tho cooling spray It censed Its cries nnd ap proached closer to tho mnn. For several minutes tho bird enjoyed tho bnth nnd then flew awny. In n few moments It returned with another Jay nnd began to cry. Again Mr. Howard turned tho hoso upon tho birds and both of them seemed to revol In the btream. Ho then thought he would seo how much water the birds would stand and started tho stream to playing upon them at greater force. Tho birds braced themselves for tho spray nnd stood up under tho stream at almost full power. After having enough water they flow away, but the next day were nn hand at tho samo hour and brought the other members of tho trlbo In that neighborhood, During the hot days at least fifty blue Jays made dally visits to tho Howard home for their bath from the hydrant and sprink ling the Jays came to bo at much of a routine as sprinkling the lawn.

SEEMS QUEER TIME FOR CORRECTIONS Contest OfllcliiK mid the Measurer Are Crltlolneil for IIpIiik Mi Tnrdy ulth 'their I in imi I- ( ii ii t Statement, CHICAfiO. Aug. 11. At the Chicago Yncht club tonight the Judges of the In tornntlonl yacht race for tho Cnnnda's cup gnve out the nstonishiiu; announcement that Cadillac, tho defender, may Increase the base of Its fore triangle four nnd thirty-six one-hundredths feet. This Is n correction with n vengeance nnd all ynchtsmen will . quickly realize tho great difference It wilt make. It mentis that Cadillac enn enrry out Its bowsprit four foot nnd four Inches, thereby Increasing the area of Its Jib by about n hundred squnre feet and can In crease the length of Its spinnaker boom by four feet four Inches and consequently can set a much larger spinnaker. Whether advantage will be taken of the opportunity to Increase the nrca of Cadil lac's head sail Is problematical, because It might affect the boat's helm and bo detrimental. It Is a ccrtnlnty thnt Cadillac will carry a larger splnnnker, which will be a great advantage In windward and leeward work, nnd Judging from tho snven knot frco run In Saturday's triangular race Cadillac needs It. Tho announcement has caused much crit icism of tho Judges and Measurer Cothroll, particularly as the announcement comes nfter the race has been sailed. The articles of agreement Insist that tho ynchts shall be measured not less than two days bo fore the first race, hut the measuring was not completed until tho morning of the first rnce, which, followed by the announce ment today, has caused unfavornblo com ment. It has been known nil day thnt nomo wrangle over the measurements has been going on. Ono explanation Is that the measurer mode a big blunder. Another Is that tho challenger has been found to ex ceed tho limit of thirty-live feet racing length, ns computed by the rules of the Yncht Racing union of the Croat Lakes, and that Commodore tloudcrhnm of tho Koyal Canadian Yacht club has been forced to make a concession to tho defender, so as to equalise the racing lengths of tho two yachts. What the real reason Is tho ofllclals steadily refuse to Bay. A. H. Hnss of Morgantown, Inn., had to get up ten or twelve times In the night nnd had soverc backache nnd pains In the kid neys.
