HAHN WINS FOR SOX.

One swing of Eddie Hahn's bat at the South Fide yesterday afternoon turned darkness into a Grand Canyon sunrise. The merciless Athletics were leading 1 to 0 in the tenth, two were outt. second and third occupied and Edward at bat with a couple of strikes on him. Could anything be more dramatic? Nub.! Knowing that it was up to him, Ned pumped a ripping single to center, and those Sox won, 2 to 1. There was much style to that tenth. In it reposed the sum and total of run getting. Walsh and Dygert had been going along shooting at tallyless speed. The ninth post was rounded with the coatless, straw-hatted gang yelling for slaughter. They had to wait first until the enemy rolled up a lead that looked like the largest run ever kicked across the plate. This was assisted by the lonesome error made by the Sox, Freddie Parent being the presenter. CUBS TAKE A REST. New York, July 26. The Cubs rested today and stored up energy to carry them through nevt week. Durbin, Mack and the younger players hiked for Coney, while the older players slept and exchanged calls with the Pittsburg and New York players. Brown, who was summoned home by the death of his sister, rejoined the club tonight, ready to work. He probably will not pitch in Brooklyn at all, as he will need a few days to get back into form. The best news of the day was a message from Schulte. who is able to be out of bed and who has been ordered to join the team at Boston or Philadelphia. His physician says will be able to play in another week, which means that the Cubs will be able to present their full strength to New York when they reach the Polo grounds. H0BART MAROONS SHUT OUT. Chicago Team Does Sorrowful Things With Hobnrt Team Yesterday. Hobart, Ind., July 27. (Special) The O'Connells & Goldbergs of Chicago, shut out the Maroons yesterday afternoon in a well played game by the score of 2 to 0. It was a line game all the way through and the fans got their money's worth. The Maroons were somewhat crippled on account of Carden not being able to catch, but Barnes, who was substituted, caught a good game. The visitors were a little too heavy with the stick work for the home team. MISCELLANEOUS BALL GAMES. At Davenport, la. Suburban Island, 2; Red Men, 0. At Peru, Ind. Peru, 7; Fort Wayne, 4.

Henning, for the locals, pitched the entire game in fine form and was given good support by the rest of the team. Quite a good sized crowd watched the game and cheered the home team to victory. LAKE VILLAGE LOSES. Lowell. Ind.. July 27. (Special) The Sunday game of baseball on the home grounds between the Lowell Athletics and Lake Village resulted in a score, of 4 to 3 in favor of Lowell. Up to the last half of the ninth inning the score was 3 to 2 in favor of the visitors, when the locals rallied making two and winning the game. HOT GAME AT HAND'S PARK. Hand's baseball park.

Hammond Power Boats Have Exciting Times on the Calumet River Yesterday Afternoon in Handicap Races.

The Hammond Motor Boat club held the most exciting launch race yesterday that was ever held on the Calumet river. George Drackert with "Beulah T," was the time winner. At 1:30 p. m. the first boat started on its journey to Riverdale and return, and it 2 o'clock George Drackert with his 'Beulah T" left to overtake all the slow boats. By somo oversight th handicappers failed to favor George and some of the slower boats came in before ho had a chance to overtake hem. However, George gets fourth prize and that alone was worth striving for. George said he needed an ammeter to see if his batteries were strong enough when he starts out to go fishing. "Catherine" Gets First Prize. Peter Gardner ami Frank Weiss, owners of the "Catherine" in an exciting finish with the "Nashinia," captured first prize. Hy Seestadt. owner of the "Nahama," underrated and exceeded their test time and were obliged to suffer a penalty for their offense. The rules of the Western Power Boat association read, that any boat which in a race exceeds her test time by 2 per cert shall 3 penalised three times the amount of time by which she exceeds her test. This is a stiff rule and many boats made it a point that they would not suffer a penalty. The "Nahama" therefore, suffered a penalty of 17 minutes and 15 seconds. Many .Are Penalised. Charles Shaffrath, owner of the "Moonlight." would have received the third prize, but he also erred in his test time and was fined 9 minutes and erton Tribune Juniors of Chesterton at Toleston yesterday and where victorious by a score of 10 to 0. The feature of the game was the great pitching by Clem, allowing but one hit and that was made by one of the Toleston boys, who was substituted for the third base man. who was injured, and chances are good that had not the third-base man been injured it would have been a no hit. no run game. On Aug. 2 the tug of war will be between the Toleston team and the Joe Long Colts, as each team has won one game and is anxious to win the odd game. The score and summary: Chesterton 0 0 00 0 0 0 0 0 0 Toleston 1 0 1 0 0 5 0 3 10 Batteries: Chesterton Reglein and Anderson. Toleston Clem and Curran. Struck out By Reerlein, 3; by Clem, 10.

Willinm Mulhull with his "Iaura )'," would have showed up better at the finish, but Bill got excited at the start and crowded his little motor too much, and at the Monon bridge he stopped to think the ms'tor over, which caused him considerable time and tiien also he stopped at Riverdale, but that was a different matter. Anyway Bill has a box of cigars coming. Next time Bill won't stop to g. t a view of a picnic grove. All boats experienced more or less excitement during the race. Below the forks is a regular cruising ground for all kinds of water craft and about all the boats in the Calumet region were out to view the H. M. B. C. race and succeeded in crowding the boats into some exceedingly close quarters, allowing them a small margin of water space. But they all came through all right, even if they had to ride over some large sized waves caused by the large steam launches. Order of Prlr.e Winners.

ST. JOHN OIES HARD

Danville Team Takes Lake County Boys Into Camp. St. John, Ind., July 27. (Special) St. John lost at Danville yesterday by a score of 4 to 0, but the loss is not taken into consideration by the local boys when it is remembered that they played one of the swiftest teams in southern Illinois. The St. John All-Stars held the Danvilles to a goose egg until the eighth i: ning when Danville scored its four runs. The four runs themselves are worth ;i chapter according to the home boys. They are satisfied that the score should have been 1 to 0, and the other three ore accounted for by rank decisions. It was a proven fact on the Danville diamond that the umpire had 25 dollars on the game. Up to the eighth inning the score was 0 to 0. Danville then went to work with a scratch hit, a Texas leaguer, hovering over the foul line and two rank decisions and Danville had won the game with a score of 4 to 0. Was u Great Game. But for the two decisions it was one of the best games ever seen in that vicinity. Up to the eighth inning there was not an error on either side. Only two hits were made on each sidle, Welty and Gallagher doing the stick work for St. John. Connors who was in the box for St. John was back in his old form and with his immense curves and slow ball he made the Danvilles bite the dust. Stewart handled the big mitt and made several grand stand plays.. Percy Smith on second, probably did the fastest work on the diamond of any of the players. Schulte did good work in the center field and was kept busy but kept clear of errors. Gallagher on short with one error redeemed himself by gaining one of the two hits foist. John. James did splendid work for St. John on first, and Smith, who played in right field, kept busy and clear of errors. Lafayette Games Arranged. St. John found favor with the Danville fans and certainly received good treatment at the Viands of their hosts. Arrangements will bo made for a return game and arrangements for a game with Lafayette to be played at East Dunn on August 9, have already been completed. The score by innings yesterday was 0 0 0 4 batas follows: St. John 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Danville 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 Bailey and Danners formed the tery for the Danville team. GERI1 AUTO II PARIS Paris, July 26. Germany's entry, the Protos car, Is the first of the contestants in the New York-to-Paris automobile race to reach this city, the team flying the colors of the fatherland arriving tonight after a terrific drive in Berlin. Loud cheers from the promenadors greeted the team as it swept up the boulevards to the finishing point. Owing to the fact that the Protos had completed the circuit of the world at Berlin its arrival here today was not attended by any official ceremony. There is considerable doubt in the minds of the officials as to whether the Germans have really won the race, as the team in charge of the car traveled hundreds of miles through America aboard freight cars, and in many ways failed to traverse the route followed by the American team, which is reported less than twenty-four hours behind the leader. Lieutenant Koeppen, who maintained his position at the wheel of the German car throughout the entire contest, was given a rousing reception all along the line leading to Paris. From Berlin to Paris over roads with which they are perfectly familiar, the German car averaged a high rate of speed. Messages received here during the day stated the American Thomas was in hot pursuit and crossing Germany at a speed which is ealeuated to bring the Yankees into Paris tomorrow morning. NELSON ARRIVES HOME TODAY. Conqueror of Joe Gans Plans Period of Rest In Chicago and Ilegewisch. Battling Nelson, lightweight champion of the world, will arrivo in Chicago this morning for the first time since his great victory over Joe Gans and will divide his week between Chicago and his Ilegewisch home. Nelson announced his plans in a dispatch received last night by the president of the Danish Sharpshooters, of which organization the Battler is a member and which, is preparing to give him a banquet at Northwest hall Friday evening. In the telegram Nelson promised to attend the feast and extended thanks for the Invitation. The Dane will rest up during his stay here. He may be seen at one of the local theaters, but he will try to forget the fight game until the time arrives when he must go into training for his third contest with the colored man. This is to take rdace at Nelson will be welcomed af the train this morning by a crowd of his admirers and he will be kept busy receiving congratulations for his victory. He was the center of attraction yesterday at Omaha, where he stopped off. Nelson will have lots of backing when he enters the ring with Gans again. His friends believe he has regained his old stamina and most Chicagoans are firm in their conviction that he Is practically unbeatable now. A great many entertainments are being planned In the Dane's honor while he is here, but It is likely he will steer cler of most of them, as he needs rest and has come home to get it.

DYER TAKES IT OUT

OF HO! TEAM Husky Farmer Lads With Some Help, Defeat the Hammond K. C's. Dyer, July 27. (Special) Dyer certainly got revenge yesterday on the Knights of Columbus team of Hammond, who defeated them earlier in the season. The score was 4 to 2 and at the end of the game everything was lovely for Dyer. This is a horse apiece now and a decisive game is looked for before the season closes. Prepared for Bljs Battle. Both teams were prepared for a big battle and both were loaded with heavy timber, practically the entire Hammond team hoving played on one side or the other. McMahon, Hammond's star pitcher, was in the box for Dyer and he certainly did find the pan for his fellow players. Just the same some of the big fellows were acquainted with his twists and touched him for seven hits. Hill got in some of his spit ball work for the K. C's. but McMahon's bunch succeeded in touching for seven hits. It was Hill, however, who scored one of the two runs for the K. C's, having himself made the only three-bagger of the day, and was brought home by a scratch hit by Humpfer. Dan Enright made two two-base hits, one of these sending in Jim Carroll who was located on second base. Had Hill received the support that McMahon received, the K. C's today might have had another scalp in their belt. Enright, Halfman, Jim Carroll, Will Gainer and Hill are charged up with an error. Klitbke caught for the K. C'se and did good work. Ed Wagner of Hammond was on the receiving end for Dyer and his work was also good. St. Claire of Hammond played shot, but failed to avail himself of two opportunities in three to make good. The score by innings: K. C's 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 02 Dyer 0 0 0 0 0 3 0 1 0 4 COLTS' SWEET REVENGE City Champions Take a Game in the Whiting La Vendor Series. The Hammond Colts took sweet revenge out of the La Vendors of Whiting by a score of 11 to 7 at Forsyth park. This Is the third game between these closely matched teams, the first being a sixteen inning 1 to 1 time game. The second game was won by Whiting by a score of S to 9.

(Special) Valparaiso Standards defeated the Oakland Parks of Lowell in the first game of a series for the Northern Indiana championship at Valparaiso, Sunday. Both teams played good ball and the break of baseball luck was about even. McCamnet of the Standards struck out ten of the Lowell batters and had but one error behind him. Irwin of Lowell struck out siv of the Standard batters and had six errors behind him. Two of Lowell's errors were connected with the Standard's scoring. About 200 fans from Ivowell went with their team. The summaries are as follows: LOWELL AB R. H. PO A. E.

BUSINESS IN LOSE Gary's Amateurs Put Up a Thrilling Battle on Saturday.

When the smoke of battle cleared Saturday afternoon, the professional men of Gary found themselves in possession of a 10 to S victory in the baseball game with the business men of the city. The game was a thriller from start to finish and for miles around he heard the frantic yelling of the players in addition to the noise the rooters made. The game was close from the start to finish and several star plays brought out rounds of applause from the grand stand. The game was the first of the series that will probably be played between the two contenders. There was more enthusiasm to the square inch over the game than any other form of athletic sport that has been Indulged in in the Steel City. In the line-up were somo of the best known citizens of Gary, who, for the past two weeks, have been training industriously for Saturday's great game. The game was won by the "profs'" in a battling rally started in the eighth inning by Clyde Hunter. CHher features of the game was the pitching of Kelley and Erickson, a great catch by Dr. Long on second, and the work of Shelby behind the bat. The main feature of the game, however, was the kicking of the players on the umpires' decisions. At several stages of the game the "ump" was placed in a precarious position and all that could be seen by the official was a panorama of tfats and gloves with Attorney Hunter and J. B. Kelley standing prominently in the foreground. In several exciting moments when the scare was tied, and a close decision was rendered, the life' of the umpire was despaire dof. At no stage of the game was there a decision given in which there was not eighteen different opinions, all trying to be expressed at once, in addition to a few from the grand stand. Harry Call, In the grand stand rooting for the professionals was a constant source of annoyance to tha umpire whenever one of the attorneys or doctors was declared out. The attorney meant all right, however, but showed that he didn't understand tha game. The line-up of the teams was as follows: Huettner p Erickson Sheley c Hall, Freer Savage lstb Hunter Van Lew 2ndb Long Pryale 3rib Hamilton Kelley si Gil las Soglovitz rf Sefton Sax cf Schaiable Clark If Dunn T WAS PITCHER'S BATTLE Saturday Fans at Harbor Witness a Good Game at That Place. Indiana Harbor, July 27. (Special) The game of ball Saturday between the American Refractories of Joliet and the American Steel Foundries of Indiana Harbor was a good one from even the most critical fan's standpoint. It was a pitcher's battle all the way through, but there was enough free hitting to have made It anybody's game at any time the fielders fell down on their Jobs. Arnold, center fielder for the visitors, had the distinction of making not only the only score of the game, but tha first home run that has been mad on the new grounds. It was in the eighth inning and two men were gone when Arnold stepped to the plate and meeting the first ball pitched squarely on the nose sent it on a line over right field, the bail never stopping till it had cleared the C, L. S. & K. tracks and the game was salted for the brick yard boys. The foundries made a desperate effort to regain the lost ground in their half of the same inning, getting a man on second and one on third with none out, but the liit that would have done the trick was not forthcoming. The next two batters struck out and the third went out on a long fly to center. The foundries threatened again in the ninth wit htwo men on bases, but the result was the same. No pinch hits were in their bat bags. Notwithstanding the fact that the locals lost, it was a nice, good, clean game throughout. These teams have each won a game now and the third and deciding game will be played Labor Day. The following is the line-up in Saturday's game. Fundries. Refractors. MeDillon c C.

Eddie Han- : Ion's showing in his twenty-round draw 1 with Johnny Murphy in the smaller arena at Col ma last night prove, 1 that j the former candidate for featherweight I honors has retained much of his speed, but that he is not lack to his old-time form. He also larks some of Ills oldtime hittine power something likely to prove costly, as he was never a partlcularly hard slugger. Few expected him to show the stamina he displayed, however, and the ability to go the long route with comparative ease. So far as boxing skill is concerned, he did well, but many believe that Murphy had a faint edge on general work. If Hanlon continues to train faithfully, however, he seems to have good earning capacity, although few expect him to become a very formidable factor among the topnotchers.
