Special to the Indianapolis Journal. COLUAIBUS, 0., Sept. 8.-Of all the wild and woolly exhibitions of baseball that were ever played, the one this afternoon between Columbus and Indiana-polis takes the banner. Phillips was given a drubbing such as the big fellow is entirely unaccustomed to, but as there was no time that the Hoosiers seemed to be in danger, he was left on the slab to the finish, when the Senators pounded out enough runs to win in the tenth inning. Brownie Foreman was sent to the slab for Columbus, and, while but two hits were made off him in four innings, his wildness enabled four Hoosiers to score. Keener tried in one inning, but was hit for two earned run.% a double play helping him out of more serious trouble, and, as that tied the score and the Hoosiers took such a decided liking to his curves, he was sent to the bench and Evans took a whirl. His passes to first and two costly wild throws sent him to the clubhouse at the end of the seventh and “Burapus” Jones finished the game, which was apparently lost. Five hits and Stewart’s error, with a base on balls, enabled Columbus to score six times in the inning, giving them a lead of one. McFarland's double and McCarthy’s single tied the score in the ninth, and in the tenth Butler’s single and McGarr’s home run won the game, Buckley and Ilulen hitting safely and scoring two more runs when Mots, dropped Alertes’s high fly.

McCreery had a decided slump in batting and from third place fell back to twelfth Davis is now in the lead, and is followed by Van Haltren, Tiernan, Gleason and Joyce. All are above .300 save Joyce, who stands on the line. In fielding McCreery still holds the lead, with not an error in twenty-four games. Clark comes next and “Alike” Sullivan is third, leading the pitchers. The team has a percentage of .291 in batting and .932 in fielding. The AfcLcod-AlcMillnn >lntcli To-Night. Indianapolis is going to see a battle between heavy-weight wrestlers to-night at the Grand and it is likely to eclipse anything of the kind ever before given here. Dan AlcLeod and D. A. McAlillan will come together in a straight catch-as-catch-can match, three falls in five, and the referee will be “Farmer” Burns, the champion of the world at that style. Since the first announcement of this match some weeks ago there has been a keen Interest in it among lovers of athletic sports and the Grand will be filled this evening when the two men come on the mat. McLeod is a general favorite and a wonderful wrestler. McMillan is a stranger here but his record shows him to be a great athlete and he holds the world's championship at mixed wrestling. He is larger and heavier than McLeod and an older wrestler, of more experience. Burns will attract much attention. His prowess on the mat long ago

made him famous. The match will begin promptly at 8:30 to-night and the doors of the Grand will be opened at 7:30.

The seven furlongs dash brought out four of the best sprinters on the track, and'the result was a very fast race. Byron AlcClelland, the winner, covered the distance In 1:26 flat, w'hich equals the track record. Overton put up a very poor ride on Millstream, the odds-on favorite in the third race, and received a severe lecture from the judges.

Dunn Was Easy for the Reds, While Dwyer Proved a Pilule. BROOKLYN, Sept. B.—Cincinnati won a well-played game from the Brooklyns this afternoon. Dwyer, who was in the box for the Reds, was at his best. Dunn was hit hard, but with proper support would probably have w r on his game. A.

Senators Now in Sixth Place. WASHINGTON, Sept. B.—Washington is in the first division as a result of taking tw r o games from Cleveland to-day. Swaim had practically lost the first, when Mercer went in the box in the ninth inning and won out. In this game O’Connor’s and Childs’s hands were slightly injured and their positions were filled by other players. Tebeau was put on the bench for disputing a decision. The second game was forfeited to the Senators 9 to 0. At the beginning of the fifth inning, with two men out, McKean claimed that he was hit by a pitched ball. The umpire decided that he had intentionally got in the way of the ball. Tebeau disputed this ruling and finally refused to continue the game. Attendance, 3,00). Score of first game: rv. IT, K.

B.—The tail-enders could do little with Klobedanz after the first Inning. The latter was magnificently supported, while just the opposite was the case with Pitcher Hart. The redeeming feature of the visitors’ play was the fine work of Cross at short. He made two wonderful pickups, and his work was clean cut throughout.

Saloon Keepers Who Buy Beer of Lleber and Ice of Holt Seemed to Be Safe. * A meeting of citizens, held at Michigan and Tremont streets. Haughville, was addressed last night by Flavius J. Van Vorhis and Charles H. Krause. The latter is a candidate for city clerk on the Citizens’ ticket. Both orators devoted their remarks to an exposition of the present corrupt methods of running the city government. But they denounced the Republican candidate for mayor as well as the Democratic. In fact, these orators played no favorites. In their opinion John F. White is the man who can conduct an absolutely honest city administration. Mr. Van Vorhis asserted that this city is being robbed right and left, no matter who is at the head of it. Mr. Krause pleasantly referred to the “park steal,’’ declaring the system the biggest kind of a fraud. Personally Mr. Van Vorhis Is friendly to Mayor Taggart, but he feels it will be a mistake to elect him again. He declares there are influences behind the mayor that control him. The speaker made the assertion that the whole city police department Is fostering the trade of the Lieber brewing syndicate. The saloon keeper who sells the Lieber beer can run his place about as he pleases. But woe to the dealer w r ho handles a rival beer. The police watch his place and he either observes the law or they haul him up. According to the speaker, the Holt Ice Company has a similar “pull.” The saloon man who buys his ice of Holt and his beer of Lieber won’t have a policeman around his place once a week. Referring to the “gold bugs” in the employ of the city the speaker asserted: “Mr. Taggart won’t turn them out, because Holt won’t let him.” Mr. Van Vorhis told his hearers that the city does not need parks as badly a it needs other things. They are too expensive at the price the present administration has been paying for them. In this connection the speaker went on to show what Garfield Park had cost the city and what other tracts of land would cost the taxpayers under the present scheme of establishing parks. “The park scheme,” said Mr. Van Vorhis, “was conceived in iniquity and born in sin.” He pronounced the whole business a gigantic fraud. On the topic of street improvements and the manner of employing inspectors the speaker was especially bitter. Public improvements in thts city, he said, cost the taxpayers about twice what they ought to cost. City Engineer “Jep,” or “Yipe,” as the speaker put it, was arraigned in caustic speech for his careless, indifferent manner of conducting street work. The City Railway franchise and the garbage contract were classed among the ‘’swindles” that the people have had thrust upon them by corrupt municipal methods. The Preelnet Organization. The Indianapolis News, two days late In learning the fact that the Republicans were strengthening their organization in the various precincts, followed its custom of distorting the fact and published a weird story last evening to the effect that practically anew commitie© was being formed with the purpose of unseating Chairman Gerard or usurping his authority, all of which is nonsense, of course. Had the professor of politics who “does” the local campaign for the News read the Journal of Tuesday morning last, with proper care, he would have found the plain truth concerning this organization, which was suggested by Chairman Gerard and is working in entire harmony with him, in the following, which appeared upon Page 8 of the Journal under the caption, “Republican Precinct Organization:” “The work of strengthening the Republican organization is being pushed vigorously upon the same plan that it was during the Denny campaign, by putting in a separate organization in each precnct to attend to the regular party voters who for one reason or other are doubtful in the campaign. While the regular committeeman goes ahead with the polling and all the regular work, the other gives his attention to organizing the Democrats who are against Taggart and to bringing around suen Republicans as may be straying from the fold keeping the regular committeeman posted right along on the progress of his work. George B. Elliott, Floyd Woods and other active young Republicans are devoting much energy, under the advice of Chairman Gerard, to perfecting this branch of the organization.” “Os course there is nothing in the story,’’ said Chairman Gerard. “The organization was my own suggestion and I desire to say further that I have had right along the most hearty and earnest support of my committee and of every working Republican so far I know.” Ollier Bike Makers May Come Oat. The other bicycle inen in the city are about the only ones wrought up to any extent over the candidacy of C. F. Smith. “It’s nothing but a scheme of his to advertise his blooming wheels,” declared the enterprising advertising agent of a rivai company. “Those in his head?” was asked by a bystander. “No, those that he manufactures. But you just wait. If I can prevail on Tom Hay. the president of our company, to come out I’ll boom his campaign in a way that’ll knock ’em all silly. I’ve got a platform up my sleeve that’ll puncture the tires of the 70-cent gas and 3-cent street-car business in less than no time. I’ll tell the voters that if my candidate is elected we’ll run free beer instead of water through the monument cascades at the rate of 140,000 gallons an hour. Guess we wouldn't have ’em coming, eh?” Twelfth Ward Meeting To-Night. W. N. Harding, the Republican candidate for mayor, will address a meeting In the Twelfth ward to-night, and it is expected there will be a good turnout of voters. The meeting will be hold at Morris street and River avenue. West Indianapolis. The Twelfth ward Republicans have begun an active fight for their candidate, and there is a great interest in the campaign issues in that part of the city. Those in charge of the Harding meeting to-night are making preparations for a large crowd. Klndergurteu Smith. Charles F. Smith, the man who has sprung the independent citizens’ movement in the Indianapolis campaign and who sprung himsvlf as the candidate for mayor, according to the evidence “out of his own mouth.” must be one of those men who are wiser than all other men who furnish the paradox of being successful in business, al-

comes with a rush. Consumption has been frequently pronounced incurable. It is not. It may be stopped—warded off—at almost any stage. But if the sufferer neglects to take the proper remedy in the proper way, death is swift and certain. Consumption like almost all manner of disease has its inception in a trio of allembracing disorders. They are “imperfect digestion,” “irregular bowels,” and “impure blood.” They are triplets. One is dependent for existence upon the other. Cure one, cure all. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is the best of all known remedies for this disorder. It corrects disordered digestion, invigorates the liver, regulates the bowels, makes the blood pure, and the nerves strong. It is the great bloodmaker and flesh-builder. It makes th® muscles firm and springy. It soothes and invigorates the nerves. It tones up body and brain. It cures ninety-eight per cent of all cases of consumption. Mrs. Rebecca F. Gardner, of Grafton, York Cos., Ya„ writes: “ When I was married I weighed one hundred and twenty-five pounds. I was taken sick and reduced in health and broke out with a disease which my doctor said was eczema. He treated my disease but failed to do tne any good, and I fell away to 90 pounds. I began using Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, and thank God and you. I began to improve. When I began taking the ‘ Discovery ’ my weight was 90 pounds and now I weigh 140 pounds and have only taken two bottles. I cannot say too much about the medicine. My husband is one of the happiest men in the world. He says I look younger than I did the first time he ever saw me, ami that was fitteen years ago. Well, doctor, I am a well woman, and do all of my housework, tend to my fowls and cow and do some work la the garden. It is a miracle that lam cured.” Health and happiness formed a partnership in the garden of Eden. It has never been dissolved. You cannot have one without the other. Constipation is the usual cause of ill-health. • Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are tiny, sugar-coated granules. They cure constipation. One is a gentle laxative, and two a mild cathartic. They never gripe.

Hero and there you have seen them. They never will know, as Kipling would say, why they were not all they imagined themselves to be. Smith says hv is going to run for mayor to take the government of th© city away from politics and that he will spend $20,000 to do it. He wanted to print a daily newspaper “as good as the Journal,” for thirty days until election day, but he was staggered at tire cost when he consulted publishers. He says he will print an illustrated paper of some sort and fill it with kindergarten cartoons and adds: “Seventy-five per cent, of the people of Indianapolis must be taught ns children are taught in the kindergarten seliools. They must have object lessons and Illustrations.” Smith is the president of thW Indiana Bicycle Company, and has got rich quick. He will add to the levity of the oampaigri and maybe serve the good purpose of heading off a more serious demonstration of mugwumpery for some yVara to come.—Terre Haute Express. Indianapolis has a brand new candidate for the mayorality. His wealth is estimated, above the million-dollar mark. He will run on the independent ticket on a platform that is opposed to all trusts, ringa combines and everything of that character. His name is Smith. It might be said that Mr. Smith v.’i'l hear the meadow larks sing every morning and acquire a vast amount of experience between now and election, if one can judge by the newspaper reporta from tlie State capital.—Hammond Tribune. THE BROAD RIPPLE SUFFERERS Many Will Attend tlie Benefit at tli l'urk To-Morrow. The sale of tickets for the Broad Rlppl® attractions to-morrow, the entire proceed® of which are to go to the sufferers by the Broad Ripple explosions, is progressing very satisfactorily. Secretary Hines, of the Broad Ripple electric line, which la acting so magnanimously in this matter, reported last night that about S2OO worth, of tickets have been sold. A ticket which sells for 25 cents entitles the holder to the car rides to and from the park over the Ripple line from Thirty-fourth street, a. ride on any of the boats at the Ripple, besides all the other privileges at the park. It is probable that thousands ot people will take advantage of the beautiful September weather to visit the park. The 25-cent ticket, entitles purchasers to privileges that would otherwise cost 45 cents. Kingan Cos. have donated $25 to the explosion sufferers and any other contributions may be left with James R. Henry, of the State Bank of Indiana. The Coroner’s Verdlet. Coroner Brayton has almost completed his verdict in the Broad Ripple explosion cases. He finds that two men were killed by an explosion of natural gas and tha others were burned to death in the fire which followed. All the injured men will recover. They are getting along nicely. Yesterday Thomas Jones, one of the victims, was able to leavo the City Hospital to go to his home. There is still one of the Broad Ripple patienta there, OrVctl Heady, hut he is improving. County License Inspector Arrested. Charles Witthoft, a county license inspector, was arrested last evening by Patrolman Hager man on a charge of drunkenness. The patrolman learned that thre® men were creating a disturbance at the store of Huntington & Page. 78 East Market street, and he reached the pluc® in time to arrest Witthoft as tin latter, he claims, was about to assault a clerk In the store with a scantling. Witthoft and two companions were drunk, the policeman charges, and became involved In a disputa with a boy working in a restaurant next door to the seed store. New Iteheknh Lodge. Last night anew Rebekah Lodge, known as Southport Rebekah Lodge, No. 549. was Instituted at Southport. The numbers of the degree staff of Indianapolis Rebekah Lodge, No. 520, went down on a special train in a body to assist in the institution of the now lodge and there were also a largo number of other vkitors from thit| city. There are now about 150 active Rcbek.nh lodges in the State, having a membership of over 99,000. Stepped on u Banana Peel.
