" Kelly Permits Pitched Ball
,to Pass Him, Hitting
- Ump Meyers.
. Joplin, Mo., June 16. (Special Tele
gramsUmpire Meyers forfeited to
day game" to Joplin when atcher
Kelly of the Omaha club refused to
leave the Jfield when ordered to do so
after he permitted a pitched ball to
pass him and strike the umpire while
Lamb, first man up for Joplin in the
fifth, was at bat In the four and one
half incics that had been played, Jop
lin wis leading by a 'score of 7 to 4.
'The, teams played a listless five-inning5
exhibition game afterN Meyers
left the field, Omaha winning it by a
. score of 2 to 1. ,?
Crutcher, Joplin pitchej-, and Mcrz,
Omaha pitcher, umpired the exhibition
... game. " :. "y s
Umpire Meyers work has been the
cause of a great deal of dissatisfac
tion ever: since "he relieved "Con"
t Daley here a week ago. Both team1
have suffered in virtually every game
t he umpired and several complaints
have been registered with President
E. W. Dickerson of theWestern
league. His judgment was so bad that
the game had been turned ino a farce
before Kelly became "funny" and let
p. one "get by." - . ..
Each team scored three runs in the
first inning. Omaha got theirs on
two singles, a walk and two triples.
The Miners' double play cut off an
other run and saved the game. Jop-
Una. scored, their three on a triple, a
walk, a double -d Donica's error.
The Omahans engineered a double
steal successiuiiy in mt lourm u
counted another run. Kopp, who re-
lieved Manske in the iirst inning, was
hit safely in the fourth for two singles.
This, with a walk, a sacrifice and an
error, netted the locals three more
nins. , 1 . . .

the supreme court of California.
Each year the ceremony of the birth
of the flaf has gained in impressive
ness. The audience Sunday was deep
ly moved by the impressive ritual, and
after the retreat and the lowering of
the flag stood with bowed beads
while Charles R. Docherty. exalted
i tiler, pronounced the final benedic
tion. Building of Liberty Bell.
The building of the Liberty bell was
the point - which all of the first
part of the ceremony led up to. Six
officers of the lodge took part: Charles
R. Docherty, exalted ruler; Willis G.
Sears, exalted loyal knight; I. W.
Miner, secretary; John C. Barrett, ex
alted leading knight; Otto Nielsen,
exalted lecturing knight, and Walter
C. Nelson, esquire. ,
To build the bell, four floral pieces,
each a part of the image, were lifted
from four altars, covered with purple
palls. The base of deep red roses, the
center of white roses, a top piece of
violets and ft cross bar of smilax, were
placed in position one by one. Im
mediately afterwards.il strokes were
sounded upon a bell to symbolize the
death of 11 members of the local
lodge during the last year.
Rev. T. J. Mackay, pastor af All
Saints' church and. chaplain of the
lodge, delivered the opening prayer.
A history of the United States flag
was give.n by F. Pratt Harwood, past
exalted ruler. A patriotic medley was
sung by the Liberty octet under the,
direction of Miss Millie Ryan. Dan B.
Eutler, past exalted ruler, paid ithe
tribute of the lodge tOthe stars and
stripes. The patriotic oration of Rob
ert Cowell was frequently interrupted
bv applause. ' 1
"L. Pixler, civil Svarveteran, asked
for permission to deliver a short ad
dress. He spoke feelingly of the sac
rifices made during the civil war to
preserve the union, and said he was
sure the present army would live up
to the glorious traditions of the past.
The closing -number, the , retreat,
was' one of the most impressive of
the whole ceremony. It was per
formed under the direction of Major
John G. Maher, United States- army,
himself an tiK. Atter tour knaki
clad buglers had sounded the retreat,
a gun was fired. ArFairbrother'sband
played the opening strains of the
"Star-Spangled Banner," and the audi
ence rose to its leet. The army of
ficers on the platform and the soldiers
in the audience stood at salute as the
flag was lowered. The audience re
mained reverently on its feet until
dismissed by the benediction of Ex
alted ruler Charles R. Docherty.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln. Tune 16.-t-fSoecial.') At
Cheyenne they tall it "Frontier days."
others call it "Wild, West," and others
have other names. "The Vanishing
West would be a better name,-de
clares a Lincoln nran who attended
the stockmen's convention at Alliance
last week.
"It was perhaps the best meeting
ever held by the stockmen of the
state," said the Lincoln man, "and
Alliance has every right to be proud
and pastimes of the west that was
were numerous and vastly entertain
mgr. but there was plenty of evidence
that they represented a 'vanishing
west,' for while there were plenty of
ropers and riders and- outlaw horses,
thy were outnumbered a hundred to
one by the automobiles and the peo
ple who never 6aw a bucker save in
a wijd west show. It is a good thing
to preserve as long as possible these
sports and pastimes of the days whefl
the west was in the making, but it
will not be possible many years
more."
Dr. Condra of (he Welfare and Con
servation commission and Will Mau
pin of the Publicity bureau attended
the convention and took severat nun
dred feet of motion pictures of the
sports for preservation in the archives
of the state and for future exhibition.
They will be a novelty to a majority
of Nebraskans of. today and to prac
tically every Nebraskan a quarter of
a century. from now.

(Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
London, May 15. "May I have a
light, please sir?"
"Thank you! Yes, sir!"
In the streets of ondon it has
come to pass that tobacco smokers
accommodate each other in this man
ner more often than ever before, ow
ing to the fact that the metropolis to
day is experiencing the greatest short
age in , matches since the modern
lighter has come into common usage.
Smokers have no hesitancy what
ever in asking the man in the street
for a "bit of fire" from his pipe, cigar
or cigarette, and invariably the man
with the light is eager to aid the man
who has a smoke in immediate pros-Pect-
.....
Women, in the lounging rooms ot
the hotels, feel at liberty to request
light of the man or woman at the
next table, so universal has become
the custom.
Before the war London was sup
plied with matches principally from
Sweden. But the German submarine
and other factors have interfered
with this business and so London
now is srettinK alonar the best it can
with little wax matches of English
manufacture, which are not only ex
oensive. but not of sufficient output
to come anywhere near supplying the
demand. -
Light from Fire.
In the hotel lobbies where fires are
nearly always burning, little rolls of
oaoer. as of the custom ot hundreds
of years ago, are kept in receptacles
for accommodation of the smokers
who light their pipe, cigar or cigarette
from the hot coals.
And in the clubs, the fashionable
clubs and all, the old style squatty oil
lamb has again come into use, after
many years of retirement, and burns
in convenient places. Beside the
lamp is a glass half filled with sand
into which thin layers of wood are
stuck after the fire is transferred
from the lamp to the smokers' to
bacco. Matches used in the United States
are seldom seen in London, except in
the hands of newly arrived Americans
who, having heard of the shortage,
brought their own supply. When
-Mhis supply is exhausted the American
adopts tne iwartime toDacco ngnting
measure and soon is asking the man

v
Washington, June 16. The govern
ment's financial program for tha next
four months was .disclosed today by
Secretary McAdoo's announcement
that in preparation for the fourth
Liberty loan, to be floated probably
in October, about $6,000,000,000 cer:
tificates of indebtedness will be is
sued. They will be offered in blocks
of $750,000,000 each every two weeks,
beginning June 25.
Every national bank and trust com
pany is asked to assist the govern
ment by subscribing 5 per cent
of its gross resources , monthly.
The certificates will bear Ay2 per centv.
interest like those preceding , the
third Liberty loan, and will nave
varying maturity periods, none ex
ceeding four months, i
In addition, an undetermined quan
tityperhaps $2,000,000,000 of tax'
certificates will be issued during the
summer for use in paying taxes a .
year from now.
The announcement of this program
indicated that the fourth Liberty loan
will be for at least $6,000,000,000 the
exact amount depending on govern--ment
"expenditures in the next few
months. The treasury already has
estimated these roughly at about
