There have been times In the dim, misty past when Patrick would pitch the champs into oomplete servitude. Nobody understood how or why, but he got away with it, and there was no come-back. But what the world beaters did to him this time was plenty. Eleven hits, five of them long twobaggers, enabled the champeens to slay the gentle doves, 5 to 1, Mordecal Brown holding the Bostons under his thumb In all save one round. Considerable hay was made by those cubs. Kicking the Bostons apart while the pirates were being handed a blank by the Brooklyns sort of made the fans think life might be worth living after all. Four and a half games still stand between the cubs and the leaders, but there is a great amount of hope stalking about the west side, even In the face of that big handicap. WHITE SOX LOSE AGAIN. Philadelphia, Aug. 19. The Athletics put another crimp In the percentage of the White Sox this afternon by defeating them In the second and deciding game of the series here by a 6 to 5 score. The game was a gory battle that was fought out every inch of the way, first with the tide in favor of the Sox then switching to the Athletics. ; The Sox managed to tie up the game in the seventh, but the knot did not remain tied for long, as the locals got the winning run over the plate In the next round. Three pitchers were used up by Connie Mack in winning, while Ed Walsh held his own against all of them. . Plank was sent to the rubber in the opening round by Manager Mack, but one round was all that he needed, for It looked as If the game was gone when the Sox scored three runs off the star southpaw. - THESE TEAMS WANT GAMES.

Tuesday in an exciting game, the Young Cubs of Russell street, defeated the Juniors of West Hammond by the score of 4 to 3. Battery for the Cubs was Conroy and Golding. Again the two teams met on Wednesday afternoon and the Cubs were defeated by one score, which was 6 to 5. Battery for this game was Conroy, Hirsch and Golding. FRANK G0TCH NOW THESPIAN. Champion Wrestler Will Depart on Vaudeville Tour Next Monday. Frank Gotch Is to depart next Monday on his first tour aa a vaudeville performer and will open with his new sketch at Kalamazoo, Mich., later going to Jackson. His first appearance in New York probably will be in December. His company consists of Blanche Alexander, George Porter Smith, Emil Klank, who takes the role of a foreign wrestler, bearing a strong resemblance to Hackenschmidt; Joseph Burton, Mae Keogh and Ralph Aubert. Frank Wiesburg, who attended to staging the affair, will not go with the company in the early stages, and George P. Smith will be stage manager for that period. THOMAS HAS NO EXCUSE FOR DEFEAT BY KETCHEL. Boxer Suys No One of tbe Same Weight Cr.n Wiihstand Stanley. San Francisco, Aug. 19. Joe Thomas had no excuses to make today for Ketchel's comparatively easy victory over him in the second round of their bout last evening. "I don't believe there is a man at his weight who can stand Ketchel's blows," he said in conversation today. Joe was not particularly badly marked, as most of Ketchel's effective punches landed on his stomach. He has a swollen mouth and a dis-colored eye, but outside of that feels little discomfort from his prompt defeat. It is thought here that Papke's demand over the weight for a fight with Ketchel has probably been caused by Coffroth, who has decided to bid against Los Angeles for the bout. Jimmy has been making strong efforts to get the bout for this city. Ketchel is now anxious to meet Tommy Burns. His manager says that Stanley will camp on the trail of Brusso as soon as the latter reaches the country. He weighed about 170 pounds when he faced Thomas last evening, and thinks this Is heavy enough for Burns. Battling Nelson will start work tomorrow for his bout with Joe Gans. Earl" Cornet, who figured as his sparring partner on Nelson's last stay here, will again be In the camp. Jim Perry and Mike the Turk will also work with him. The Battler will train at Millet's place. Joe Gans is also in town. He will work at Croll's place. Nelson may make a trip of a few days Into the mountains before starting his practice, but his training staff will remain here. The Battler explains that all he wishes to develop is his wind and thinks that mountain climbing will do this. ARRESTS MADE AT NEW YORK TRACK. Big Sprinter Covers the Mile Route Handily and Wins in a Drive. New York, Aug. 19. More arrests were made at Empire City today, the police charging that evidences of gambling were visible. This spoiled play on two or three of the races, but there was little difficulty In placing money. Jack Atkin won the fourth race by a scant nose in a hard drive. Tileing was just behind him, and Zlenap was an Indifferent third. Jack Atkin ran a first class race and showed his staying powre by lasting the full mile. The big sprinter carried top weight In the race, but was held at prohibitive odds In the betting. YANKEE ATHLETES BEAT SCOTS. Irish-American Stars Win Seven Events at Edinburgh. Edinburgh, Aug. 19. In the match today between a team of Irish-Amer ican athletes versus Scotland the former won seven of the eleven events on the program. Melvin W. Sheppard captured the halflmile, Lawson Robertson won the 100 yard and R. Cloghen the 220 yard dsahes, Harry Porter the high Jump, C. J. Bacon the 120-yard hurdles Daniel J. Kelly the running broad jump and Lee J. Talbott the hammer throw Jamleson of Scotland won the mile run, beating J. P. Sullivan and Harvey W. Cohn of the Irish-American team. Young of Scotland captured the quar ter-mile daah from J. B. Taylor by four yards, Nlcolson of Scotland beat Tal bott in the weight-putting event, and Duncan of the local team won the fourmile run, in which George V. Bonhag finished fourth. No new records were made. BILL AS MUCH AMAZED. Bill Kunert of the redoubtable Toleston nine, is mighty sore these days. Bill says the story that the Alma Maters are to represent Toleston In the game at Hobart Is all bosh. He ad mits the Toleston team will have three of them, but that's all. Cavanaugh, the manager of the Alma Maters, says that six of his men will play, and there you are. Of course, since Bill got that baby ve have never known him to tell an untruth.

WILL BE A STAR GAME i Hi Professional and Business Men to Play Off tha Horse.

The plans for the benefit baseball game to be played by the business men and the professional men on the south side grounds a week from Saturday, are now maturing fast, and the best players In their respective vocations will be secured. The game will be played for the benefit of the Mercy hospital and the tickets will be disposed of by the members of the Ladies' Aid, the members of the Knights of Columbus and Father Jensen. The two baseball teams have each won a game from the other, and the game a week from Saturday will be the one which will decide the supremecy. Both teams are practicing hard every day for the great event, and It looks as if they would put up more than an ordinary, exhibition. The game will be called at 3 o'clock in the after noon, and an admission of 15 cents will be charged. PUTS ATHLETES TO WORK. Jones Writes to Scarlet Football Men to Begin Their Training. Crawfordsvllle, Ind.. Aug. 18. Athletic Director Ralph Jones of Wabash college has been sending out letters to all of the football candidates of the local Institution who expect to try for gridiron honors during the coming season, and In the letters he states that he Is especially anxious to have the men in good condition prior to the formal opening of the first practice. The first whirl with the pigskin is to be held on the 14th of next month and Graduate Manager Harry Eller shares the opinion f Coach Jones that the Little Giants will make a strong bid for championhip honors In all branches of ath letics during the coming college year. The letters being sent out to last year's warriors read as follows: I am writing to the football men rging them to get into good condition before reporting on Sept. 14. If they will do this we will be able to make a much better showing In the early games. If you possibly can, practice starting and sprinting and take some hard exercise. Prospects look mighty good In all branches for this year and am counting on you to do your share." JIGGERS. Pitcher Doescher found the going too lumpy In Cincinnati and quit. Jimmy Ryan, the former Chicago player, has given up the management of tbe Montgomery Southern league team. Brooklyn fans wish the Superbas had to play the St. Louis Nationals every day for the remainder of the season. Yum, Yum! What swell cake! Great is Billy Murray and his Philadelphia National. The Quakers have landed from novrhere and are now playing like champions. The New York Americans never before were so badly off as at present. Owner Farell has a good Job In sight getting players for next season. The Cleveland team did great work during their recent stay at home. The Naps are still In the running strong. Cap Chance and his Chicago champions came near losing their shirts during the eastern trip. Tbe Cubs will have to do better or they will never handle any of that world's series plush In October. Detroit fans are asking If the Cubs will be the opponents of the Tigers In the world's series again. Again t Did the Tigers ever play the Cubs for the world's championship f BOXING NOTES. Promoter Coffroth of San Francisco got after Owen Moran and Abe Attell, whom he has matched for Labor Day, so hot the other day that both boxers have promised to be good until after the bout. The new middleweight championship belt owned by Ketchel is the first prize waist band to make its appearance In several years. It Is hoped that It will not go the way of the famous Sullivan belt. While Jack Johnson Is talking about fighting Sam Langford keeps busy in the ring. Its no wild eyed gush to say that Sam, though a middleweight, will some day shine as the star dinge fighter. Few fighters came so fast and fell so hard as did Rudolph Unholz. The erstwhile Boer champion boxed his way through Batting Nelson and George Memslc and woke up at the feet of Dick Hyland. Willie Lewis says he did not flunk out of his match with Bill Papke as he Is supposed to have done. He declares that his manager called the bout off virtually without his knowledge or consent. It begins to look as if Tommy Burns' string of almond fritters or easy money propositions has been cut. Perhaps Tommy will have to fight some one within the next five or six years. Mike Donovan, the Rochester welterweight, was obliged to call off his match with Bill Papke. Donovan con tracted blood poison in his right arm recently and te doctors fear the arm may have to be amputated. Joe Gans has selected Frank McDonald to put him In condition for his third bout with Batllng Nelson, which Is to be the Labor Day attraction at 4 Colma next month.

POSHES MILK CRUSADE Secretary of Board of Health Lauer Prods Dealers and Gets Results. CITY DEMANDS PURE MILK First Steps Taken Uuietly Produce Satisfactory Findings and Warfare Is Renewed. Special to The Times Whiting, Ind., Aug. 20 The authorities of Whiting with Mayor Smith and Dr. Lauer as secretary of the board of health, have gone In for a pure milk crusade. The subject not entirely new, has been taken up jvltu renewed vigor and there will be no stop to It until Whiting gets the purest milk possible. For the last several weeks Dr. Lauer has been conducting investigations and examinations of milk that . is handled by the dealers and the ccfllsumers. Dealers Caught Red-handed. The first steps were taken quietly and caught the dealers unaware. The result was that the officials found, milk that was skimmed, watered and "doctored." The milk dealers were caught with the goods on them, and Dr. Lauer gave them fair warning at a meeting that he called for the milk dealers last Saturday. They were given to understand that they would be severely prosecuted unless their milk supply was pure. Since hen has taken other samples, and found them fine, good and excellent with the exception of one case, a dealer who persisted In skimming and watering his milk. The resu't of the second exam ination showed clearly that the fault lay only with the dealers themselves and that hereafter they will have to beat the consequences. Has Chicago's Backing. Not satisfied, however, with local conditions Dr. Lauer has affiliated himself with that big movement which ef fects all of Chicago and the surrounding towns for a betterment of health conditions. As his first step in this direction he will go over the tabooed list of milk shippers in Chicago who may be sending their goods to Whiting. Furthermore Chicago has offered its labratory to the surrounding towns and Dr. Lauer will make use of this in tak lng Individual tests of milk from the various farmers that ship Into the town. He will also have access to the Infor mation that the 150 traveling lnspec tors gain In their rounds of the dairy farms. Says Babies Are Too Precious. "Whiting must have purer milk," said Mayor Smith this morning. "We think the lives of our babies by far too precious to be sacrificed to the greed of people who permit impure milk to go into the homes." Dr. Lauer concurred in the statement made by Mayor Smith and is very enthusiastic about the work that he has undertaken. He does not propose to swing the club unless It Is necessary, hoping that education and an appeal to the humanity of the dealers may bring about what the course of law will bring if the appeal Is ignored. A Another Thriller For the Crowds at the Big Lake County Fair. (Special to The Times). Crown Point, Ind., Aug. 22. One of the genuine sensations which will be pulled off at the fair grounds this evening and tomorow Is the big balloon ascensions. Prof. Dolson, the aeronaut, Is one of the most expert balloonists known to the profession and his parachute leaps make the crowds gasp who see him. The fair management secured the aeronaut at much trouble and expense and they expect to be amply repaid by the satisfaction and entertainment it will give the crowd. JOHN JOHNS, SUP'T OF INTERSTATE MILLS, SICK. Poor Health Forces Him to Lay Down His Work. Temporarily Will Go to Benton Harbor for Week's Rest. (Special to The Times). East Chicago, Ind., Aug. 20. The many friends of John Johns, superintendent of the Interstate Iron and Steel company, will regret to hear that he is forced to relinquish his responsible duties for the time being through 111 health. Mr. Johns has been Indisposed for the last month or so, but loyalty to his post seems to defy his shattered health until he became so weak that he had to give way. It is understood that he has left town for Benton Harmor for a few weeks' rest It Is the sincere desire of all his acquaintances that he will soon regain his health and be as of yore. The Prolific House Fly. It has been calculated that the prog eny of a fly In one summer could be 49,824,617,346,398,780,000. From this may be judged the futility of attempt ing to destroy the fly after maturity. IF YOU HATH TIME TTjRJt TO ijfAGB 7 AlfD HEAD TUB WAST ADS,

Long Stern Chase For East Chicago Man Finally Successful. HE OWED SOLOMON 60 CIS Police Order Towerman to Shoot Fugitive Full of Holes, Thinking He Was Criminal. East Chicago, Ind., Aug. 20. Last evening at 6 o'clock as Officers Mike Gorman and John Weifenbach were driving from Indiana Harbor to East Chicago they saw a man run out of Andrew Simko's saloon, closely follow ed by a woman. Mike Jumped from the buggy and took up the chase. The man ran across the canal bridge on Chicago avenue and then turned north. Get Buggy to Investigate. Officer Weifenbach in the meantime notified headquarters and Officers Bowen and Thompson jumped Into a buggy and raced north to head off the fugitive if possible. Officer Weifen bach by this time was also in hot pur suit, but the man had had a good start and was steadily gaining. Officer Gorman got close enough to him to yell at him to stop, but the man refused to pay any attention to the order. Mike then opened fire and emptied his revolver at the fleeing man, but stil there was nothing doing in the stop line. Towerman Intercepts Fugitive. Finally a towerman on the Pennsylvania railroad Intercepted the fugitive, but the man pulled a long knife and threatened to kill the towerman if he didn't step aside. The towerman stepped aside and the man went on. In a shore time Gorman arrived, considerably the worse for wear, as marshes and barb wire fences are not the best things in the world for new uniforms, Mike was about all in from his long run and the towerman was fresh, so he asked to borrow the officers re volver and take up the chase. "Shall I kill him," the towerman asked Mike. Orders Him to Shoot. "Shoot him as full of holes as you can with that gun," said Mike. The towerman then started on his death dealing mission with the empty gun. While all this was going on another officer hurried to Simko's saloon to find out what the supposed holdup man had gotten in the haul. When inquiries were made Mrs. Simko, who was calm ly tending to business, said In a sur prised way. "Oh, that man, why he got 60 cents worth of drinks and went out without paying for them. But he's all right; we know him and he will pay It the next time he comes In." The officers were Informed and the chase abandoned right then and there, excepting in the case of the towerman, and he may be running yet. GASOLENE EXPLODED AND LABORERS INJURED. Peter Golden and Charles Riley Burned About Hands and Face. Two men, Peter Golden and Charles Riley, laborers for Green & Sons, In the sewer at Carolina street and Thirteenth avenue. In Gary, was severely burned about the face and hands last night when gasolene exploded. The two men are employed on the night shift and In trying to light a gasolene light permitted the match to come In contact with the oil causing an explosion. Both were taken to the Mercy hospi tal, where It was found that the condition of Riley Is serious. BEDFORD BUILDING CLUB PENNILESS AND IN DEBT. Indiana Loan Association Goes to Wall After Having; Done a Very Large Business. Bedford, Ind., Aug. 19. A genuine ensatlon was created In Bedford this orenoon when It became known that he Bedford Building, Savings and Loan .ssociatlon had gone to the wall. The fficers of the company are: George C. 'ampbell, president; A. B. Dye, secreary; Henry Alden Hagan, treasurer. The association was organized In 187S, and up to ten years ago did a usiness of 188,000 per year.
