TIGERS DEFEAT CUBS
IN BENEFIT GAME, 73.
Pitchers Take Matters Easy and
Hitting Becomes Terrific.
the
A few crumbs of comfort fell into the laps of American league rooters when the Tigers won yesterday's benefit exhibition game from the Cubs on the West Side grounds, 7 to 3. Exactly 6,664 people paid to see the recent rivals for world's honors mix again, the players netting about $125 each. The coin was evenly divided not 75 and 25. They saw a typical
exhibition game everybody working
but the pitchers. The contest looked for all the world like the opening game of the season down south When all hands, except the flingers want to see how hard they can play. But, of course, when the pitching is not of the best there isn't much of a ball game to be seen. It was the same on both sides. Neither Mullin nor Winter, who twirled for Detroit, threw a dozen curves; Reulbach and Overall all also refused to take chances with their arms and merely steamed the ball straight over the plate. Now and then when a pitcher was deep in the hole he would work hard to get out.

Football enthusiasts had plenty of surprises handed to them In Saturday's games. Greatest of all perhaps was that at Marshall field, where the Maroons and Illini held forth in their annual battle. Most of the rooters had picked Chicago by a big score owin.L to the previous work of the two squads. But the down-state men showed up wonderfully strong, holding the Maroons down to a 11 to 6 score and outplaying the local eleven in the second half.
Minnesota surprised even its most
ardent admirers in the powerful fig-lu
it put up against the strong Nebraska bunch. With only four veterans on 11-e
team, and none of them behin.l the line.
the Gophers literally walked all over the husky cornhuskers. Three times Minnesota was within the five-yard line, and it was owing to the green
ness of its quarter back that the bal!
was not shoved across. The result of this game, in the actual playing, shows
the Gophers entitled to considerable consideration this season in figuring
out the championship dope.
W0LGAST REMAINS FAVORITE.
Los Angeles, Oct. 18. Freddie Weeks and Ad Wolgast were somewhat at a loss as to what to do with
themselves following the postponement of their bout from last Saturday until tomorrow. Neither wished to do any

interspersed with sprints. Wolgast will be favorite when the boys step in
the ring tomorrow. The new roof ever Jeffries' arena' had been constructed so hastily that it was found the drizzle of the day made the place untenab;e
Saturday.

YOUNG MAHONEY WINS.
Fuxfllnt Who Foujrht in Hammond Successful In Missouri.
Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 18. A damper was put in the pugilistic aspirations of Billy Rhodes this afternoon when Young Mahoney of Racine was given the decision over the Kansas City boy at the end of twenty rounds of milling. The fight was held in disputed territory, over which the jurisdiction oZ the authorities is not certain. Mahoney's showing was rsmarkable in that he fought with an injured hand for sixteen rounds. The battla took place on an island in the Missouri river and was witnessed by 500 fight followers. It was a slashing good bout for the. first four rounds. Then the Racine boxer injured his hand, and from that time on it was good for defensive purposes only. Laboring under this disadvantage, Mahoney came out of the encounter without a scratch, while one of Rhodes' eyes was badly cut and his body was freely marked as a result of Mahoney's clever infighting.

The election of the REPUBLICAN Legislative Candidates from Lake County is one of the vital necessities of the present campaign. Every citizen is interested in the election of a United States Senator and every Republican and each voter is interested in the election of a REPUBLICAN UNITED STATES SENATOR. The Republican party is committed to a revision of the tariff along protective lines that will insure a continuation of the policy of American markets for the products of our own factories and farms and the highest wages to our workmen and the best prices for American farm produce. PROTECTION and PROSPERITY is the vital issue of this campaign. The citizens of Lake County are directly interested in many questions that will come before the next session of the Indiana Legislature, the Legislative, Congressional and Judicial reapportionment of the State, the improvement of our Waterways and many other questions of equal Importance.

Coppess' booting ability had never before been reckoned with in low i'ootbali, and it proved tni undoing of the champions. Cornell has always been considered a third-rate team, but Coach Williams of Ames admits that it won on straight football and superior generalship. Ames does not play Iowa this year.
but does play Draka. Drake does not play Cornell. Grinnell and Drake play this week. Dopesters are hopelessly at sea.
