Their Position,
NEW TOUK, July IS. Tho approach of
August finds Interest In tho mnjor loasue
base ball races down almost to tho van
ishing1 point, so far as tne premier berths
we concerned.
With Pittsburgh's upward rush rudely
theeltcd by thn Q I ants, and neither Phlla
lelphla nor Chlcaco displaying sustained
winning power, there seems to be noth
ing to prevent New York from taking an
other National league pennant,' It Mc
3raws team continues to play the kind
tf ball of which It has shown Itself
sapable.
In tho younger organisation the situation
Is much tho same, with tho Athletics In
the commanding position.
Among other points of Interest Is the
ihowlns of Washington. Griffith's lively
crew ldst but two games In tho last two
weeks. Only a game ant. a half sepa

Vlona now are at home for a compara

Washington's Buccess Is attributable In
rery great part to tho sterling worlt of
'tn great pitchers, Johnson and Boohllng,
Th phenomenal young lott-hander regis

Renting hard alt the time. , ,
Chicago vras going well until tho last
,'(W days, when It struck a streak of
poor batting And worse fielding, Hal
Chase got Into one of his spasms of error
making. Chnppelle, the new high-priced
outfielder, has been of Uttlo service. For
tome reason ho has been sitting on tho
bench for tho last few days. A blow to
Ihe team's supporters was tho discovery
'.hat Ed Walsh was not yet in shape to

Tho Bostons, after a poor road trip,
Surtng which they made their Quick
change of managers, are playing bettor
Vail at home. Some promise has been
shown recently by Detroit's work, tho
ctub apparently finding It especially easy
o beat Philadelphia. The Crawford-Cobb
tombtnatloni Is working well again.
Asldo from the Giant-Pittsburgh clash,
the recovered form of tho Philadelphia
nd Brooklyn's brace wero tho notable
features In the National league -week.
Ilucker'fl return to his usual form, as
evidenced by his holding Cincinnati to
five hits today, will bo a great help to
Brooklyn. Chicago, besides having suf
fered through the loss of Zimmerman's

Cornerstone of

Irr tho presence of an audience ot about
KM people tho cornerstone of tho new
church building to bo erected by tho
TteorganUd XAlUr Day Saints, on West

Illustrating his remarks by means ot
charts, and showing the printers their
sharo In tho cost of operating a printing
establishment, and what It means to
havo employer and employe working to
gether to seoura results. At no point did
Mr. Elllck'a talk verge on "efficiency,"
but it waa a thoughtful exposition ot tho
Items that enter Into tho cost ot oper
ating a manufacturing establish mont,
nnd, as tho speaker otated, will apply
equally to any, whether it be tba making
Of umbrellas or printed matter,
Printers Deeply Interested.
Tho printers showed by their close at
tention tho Interest thoy hnd In tho sub
ject, which Is not altogether new to thorn,
but vjhtch thoy had never before heard
explained so lucidly, This featurn ot the
mooting was distinctly novel, for It Is
tho first time that tho cost system has
been presented to a printers' union while
In session. Mr. Elilck has frequently
addressed composite gatherings ot em
ployers and employes, and said o waa
proud that the new epojjti, from whloh
h'o prophesied much good Wohld come,
hod had Its beginning In Omaha. -

Both speakers were roundly appiauaea
by tho printers, who are In hearty sym

a rising voto ot thanks was tenoerea as
an appreciation of tho presence ot tho

day parade and a committee consisting
ot Messrs. Jeffries, Klncald and Shaw
was named to make the necessary ar
rangements. Church Will Ask for

The last sacramental service of tho con
ferenco year will bo held at tho Broad

Tho attorney general Is preparing to
make a fight In court In defense ot the
law which was adopted four years ago
under which houses used for Immoral
purposes may bo closed by Injunction
process. Tho law Is being attacked be
cause of failure of tho speaker ot the
house to certify as to Its passago In the
house. Thn wUto will contend this could
not defeat tho law, Tho fate of Im
portant properties In Des MolnA depend
on tho oUtcomo of such a trial.

Issued a second edition ot the bullottn,
as prepared by the commission and tho
legal department of tho state, contain
ing the highway laws and tho rulings

time.
May Ilcvoko Pharmacy Certificates.
Pharmacy commissioners at their meet
ing at tho state house considered citing
everal pharmacists of tho state to ap
pear and answer to charges against
them for violation ot tho pharmacy and
liquor laws. The commission has decided
that .certificates, will bo revoked It hold
ers havo, been violating tho law. Some
time ago ono cerunoato was revoked be
cause tho holder had violated the liquor
laws. Others will bo treated the samo
way. The commission also gave notice
to all holders of certificates that are de
linquent to pay up within thirty days or
havo their certificates revoked. Notice
Is to bo sent to all Itinerant vendors to
pay up their licenses In full, as It was
found that a number wore behind, Tho
state gets about 80,000 from these licenses
and about 1 1,000 a year from tho renewal
of certificates.
Compels Cleaning1 of 3I!ue Camps.
Tho now law In regard to sanitation at
mine camps and elsewhere Is working out
an right. Complaint came to the State
Board of Health this week as to tho un
sanitary condition ot the water at the
camp of the Maplo coal mine in Monroe
county. Bamples of tho water were se
cured from tho only welt at the camp and
it was declared to be to bad that It waa
not feasible to analyse tho stuff, Sec
retary Bumner Issued a peremptory order
to tho operators to furnish & supply ot
good water for the people living there
and It has been done. The now law gives
tho state board authority to compel a
cleaning up of tho camps.

Maurloe Lynch, found guilty of keeping
a disorderly house, to have It placed un
der Injunction under tho state Jaw, so
that In case of any misuse ot the prop
erty tho cost ot the same would bo taxed
against It. Tho law Is one that has been
used but very little, but has been found
very effective in putting a atop to tho
uso of good property for Immoral pur
poses. Tho attorneys for Mrs. Lynch
have given notice they will carry the
police court case Into tho district court
and fight It to the finish.

Considerable Interest attaches to tho
outcomo of tho fight betweon Mayor
Hoctor and a majority of Ihe council
over the appointment of Street Commis
oloner Fennel!, who has been thus far
successfully 6pposed by the council.
Members of tho quartet who thus have
suoceeded In blocking the mayor say
they will win out Some doubt, however,
Is expressed m to whether John Riches,
one of tho councllmen. can hold out un
der the pressure that Is brought to bear
on him. It Is known thajt most of tho
pressuro has been directed toward niches,
Members of tho Insurgent quartet
chargo that Konnell has not properly ful
filled his -duties as street commissioner.
Mayor Tom Hoctor tried to protect his
protcgo by saying that Fennell was
handicapped by the men ho employed,
they being ord or crippled. The men on
tho street gang, however, are all able,
It Ib said, to do their work and earn their
monoy honestly.
It Is thought that If Fennell Is ap
pointed this tlmo he will still Continue
to run tho city automobile after hours.
Golnn; After Personal Tax.
City Treasurer Martin has Issued on an
nouncement that ho will begin to serve
distress warrants on those who have not
paid their personal taxes. Treasurer
Martin In speaking of the matter said:
mere are n great number of men, busi
ness men, who have let this matter slide.
This office has Bent them special notices
without result Of course If they do not
pay up wo will havo to get out a van
and book It up at their doors. Tho law
gives mo no alternative except to collect
tho taxes."
Treasurer Martin declared that his
books show that a great deal jot tax
money has been lost In recent years
through bankruptcy failures. According
to Mr. Martin, these losses to tho city
could have been obviated by keeping In
touch with the Dally Court Record, Tho
treasurer's office will be furnished with
a court record hereafter and notices of
delinquent taxes will bo filed on tho
trustee In bankruptcy as soon as pro
ceedings have boon started.
