FOX was taken sick during the fourth jln t nlng and was replaced by Boles. i Schoondver and Acock, the outfielder and . Inflelder purchased from Hutchinson, are 1 to report today. , Fentress, the' new twlrler of whom great things are expected, will probably be In the game Sunday. . .. Rlggert, the new outfielder, Is more than making good. So far ha has played an errorless game and Is showing up well at the bat. ' . Melter made the only, spectacular play of the gome. When Kane fielded a grounder down -between first and second, Melter started for first, caught the ball, tripped and rolled accross the sack for a putout. , ' Kane got away with an Infield hit be cause Catcher Frambes thought his at tempted sacrifice bunt would roll foul. Frambes stopped and watched It come to a halt about an inch and a half inside the line. . LINCOLN CAPTURES OPEXER Landa oa Jaralgaa for Three Hit la Ninth.

RED CLOUD AND ITS TEAM Webster Connty Capital Gives Loyal Sapport to Base Ball. RED CLOUD, Neb., Aug. 16. To the Ed itor of The Bee: A communication in your paper dated August 13, from Hastings, headed "May " Shorten Time of State League," does an injustice to this town. The writer states that the State league schedule may be shortened, as finances of the clubs are running low. But that with the possible exoeptlon of one town all will remain in the league next year. And that Red Cloud has been disappointed in its pa tronage. The charge that finances are running low may be true of Hastings, but It Is absolutely untrue of Red Cloud. The financial affairs of the Red Cloud team la most flattering. There is actual cash In the treasury to finish the season without considering an other admission ticket. Red Cloud desires to go on record as op posed to any shortage of the schedule, but is anxious and fully prepared to finish the season as scheduled. It is not true that Red Cloud has been disappointed in its patronage. On the other hand, the management has been gratified at the patronage received. The records will show that Red Cloud has re' celved as good patronage as any town in the league, and much better than some. Just last week we completed a series of games on our home ground at which over 3,000 admissions were paid foe the week. Red Cloud's team Is playing good ball and there is no trouble in any way. - Its franchise is not for sale and never was. If Hastings is running low In finances we are sorry, but suggest it look after its own affairs and not sling mud at us. ; RED CLOUD FAN. RESULTS IN THRKE-l ' LEAGUE 1 .

PREACHER HARKS BACK TO HOE Former Pastor Ilarsha Finds Mora Money In Potatoes Than In Sermons. Potatoes pay so much better than the ology, according' to the view of the Rev. Dr. William Justin Harsha, formerly well known as pastor of the Second Reformed church 1n Harlem, New York City, that he has stopped preaching and taken to farm ing. . He was a forceful and brilliant preacher. and his resignation from his pulpit was ai T " ' "T """"" """" V Durn- .. .,., . i. xt TJonnj,on flht pictures were being barked sensation eleven years ago. " He left New York City and sent his resignation from southern Texas. The Rev. Dr. Harsha had many financial tribulations, which came upon him to the amount of 140,000, owing to his signing the notes of a western pub lishing house which failed. His creditors pursued him to this city and sought to attach his salary. , , According to an article from his pen, which appears In the current number of the magazine SuccesB, the Rev. Dr. Harsha gathered together about 21,200, with which he and his wife, his son and his two young daughters went out in search of pastures new. He was so Impressed with the Idea that the ministry offered no future that he dropped It like a hot potato. Tbe clergy, man obtained a quarter section in Colorado, for which he paid $16 down. He bought two mares and a cow and 200 pounds of seed potatoes, and now he Is doing very well Indeed, he writes. He Is harvesting 15,000 pounds of potatoes to an acre, for which he has been getting half a cent a pound. One hundred hens, laying each an egg a day, meet his grooery bill with regularity and sometimes lay aside a sur plus for a rainy day. Also he is raising pigs and enjoying the sport of broncho busting and he has some fine horses. His barley crop, the Rev. Mr. Harsha avers, is excellent, and he raises other grains. "From year to year," he writes, "we have cleared more land, being careful to remember J. J. Hill's advice. 'Not large farms, but a larger use of the hoe.' We have a small orchard of fifty trees, but we believe in the perseverance of the saints." All the props of which the minister Is so proud are the result of irrigation. Hav ing put his hand to the plow, he asserts that he would not turn back for any con sideration. New York Herald. A Bachelor's Reflections.

The experience of two of the three hun dred odd thousand people at Coney Island who passed among the psychic palm read ers, the astrologers and the hoop-la attrac tions of the big seaside playground Sunday was typical of the qualities of the day's wldeopenness. They worked through the Jam toward the Bowery, where the string of free shows lay of which they had been given a list by previous Investigators, with assurance f that they would find Sunday made no dlt- 1 1 ference to the usual weekly run. At Inman's, the largest of the places that have not yet given up the choruses for the moving picture attractions, they were of fered beer at 26 cents a glass with sand wiches at a similar figure. . "I'll serve your drinks upstairs If you'd Just as soon. Cost's no more, and the show looks better up there," confided the waiter on taking his order. , , "And I'm awfully overloaded wi silver," he whispered close in his patron's ear a minute later, "won't you be good enough to give me paper money for about $5 worth of ur That was the typical style of the short change effort. The patron responded at once, and received a handful of quarters, dimes and nickels. He started to put It In his pocket, concluding to find out a little later Just hoW much he was short. "Count it, count it," and make sure you're right," Insisted the waiter. The visitor did so. It waa 10 cents short He was at a loss to understand how the waiter would take all the trouble of having his money changed for so small a fee. He started to rejoice; he was obtaining first hand evidence of how the game was worked at a very small cost, 'when the waiter's flat reached down Into his and gathered up the pile of coins. Laying them flat out In Ms hand, he counted them all over again, very carefully and slowly, as -If to Impress his customer with the correctness of his figuring. "Ah, yes," he said, "10 cents short," and lie handed over another dime. But instead bf putting It In with the rest of the money he handed it over separately, passing th handful over in a second allotment. This time when the customer counted his money it Was $1.20 short and the waiter was lost in the packed house. In this Instance no outcry was made to attract the strong armed bullies who mrk'y kept as the first reserve force of the slioff changers to make a riot out of any effort to demand full change. Down the street a little ways, past a TrWaVltla nlfitlira mVinr awUa.. a.U rt for as Jeffries-Johnson views, the visitors took seats In Connors' Imperial cafe. Hero an Oriental dancer from the heart of dark I est Africa via Mobile did her own varla tions on , the dance that once made a Seeley dinner famous. A mixed white and black chorus filled In at intervals. "I'm sorry, old chap, but I'm awfully packed with small bills. Could you let me have a tenner for ten ones?" piped the waiter after making his usual wlner oom confidences. The $10 bill was produced and a nutr Wr of $1 bills were handed out In exchan. The case seemed to offer possibilities to observe how settlements were made after f a police call was threatened. . ' The $1 bills totaled $9. "There's a dollar shy here," replied the customer In rather loud tones. Walters began at once to move in his direction. 4 - "Who's kicking up a fuesT" bellowed V one. But the waiter ' who had made tha change was willing to try a recount. "Here's another, bill." he said, as he fin ished and handed one over, passing the original roll back separately. Again, tha customer counted in and again there were nine.' He had been assured previously If under such conditions he left the cafe and started for the police station be would be followed and Intercepted. - He had scarcely turned from Surf avenue Into Eighth avenue, where Captain Galvln haa his headquarters, when the Interceptor laid a hand on his shoulder. "Here's your other dollar," he said. "For get It. We was only -klddtn' you." - "And I've seen the likes of you get six months for the trick you tried to turn," the othe man replied, "and maybe yours is a face that's good for a year." He put the bill in his pocket and the waiter went back to his trade on the bowery. New York Times. Melted HI Nerve.
