INDIANA HARBOR. Judge Wlter J. Riley returned Saturday from New York where he spent a few days attending to personal business. He reports that the lights on Broadway are just as bright as of yore. Only about 100 Indiana Harbor fans accompanied the ball team to Grown Point yesterday. This was owing to the fact that word regarding the provision of a special train was received so late that many did not know of it
until they had made other plans for
the day.
The storm Saturday night spoiled the
attendance at the carnival which was
given all week under the auspices of
the Baseball Association. The pro
moters were much disappointed as they
had expected the largest attendance of
the week on that evening. While the
organization did not make much by
the venture they will pull out a little
to the good. A number of fans went to Gary Sat
urday afternoon to attend the ball
game between the works team and the Harbor League team. The Harbors lost after ten Innings 10 to 11. The game was replete with slugging features and
was not an especially good one. The members of the works team aro talking of playing a return game at the Har
bor next Saturday.

It took ten Innings of the most exciting and nerve-raoking ball to decide the game between Crown Point and Indiana Harbor here yesterday, and it was a game replete with sensational work on both sides. Stallman and Gaarde featured their side of the
game with two long swats to center field, which, aided by the wind, were good for home runs on each occasion. Meinke for Indiana Harbor also played a sensational game at shortstop and deprived Crown Point of many chances to reach first. Both Kelly and Hennlng pitched superb ball and but for errors by their team mates would have lessened the score by many points. Smith had an oft day yesterday and had a number of errors to his credit. Crown Point's double and triple plays during the game were eye-opener to the Harbor crowd and convinced them that their

In a rousing ninth inning rally the ambitious White Sox won another exciting game from the lowly Washington club yesterday at Comlnsky park and threw more than 20.000 fans into spasms of delight- They were three runs behind the easteners when 'they made their final attack, and five healthy base hits drove four men over' the plate
and made the final score 6 to 5 In their favor. For eight Innings Cominsky's athletes labored Industriously against the sharp pitching of Bob Groome. In one of those Innings Bodie McConnell. and Ziedler connected for whaling hits in succession an dproduced a couple of runs, and the rest of the time the local boys were victims. With their blood boiling because of the measley break in luck, they took their final stand with increased determination, and when five men had taken turns with the stick Mr. Groome was batted to the bench and the Sox were within one run of the visitors with two men on the bases and only one out.

Yeatei-day'a ReaoJta. No games scheduled. Boston, Mass., July 16. Consequent to the severe jolting given the Cub machine yesterday when It was bumped by the tailenders 17 to 12, Manager
Chance decided to shake up the debris and put the cogs together In a new
combination for awhile.
Vic Saier will be put on first base
today and Artie Hofman will go back
to his regular outfield berth. The P.
I spent Sunday cogitating on the more
or less desperate situation disclosed by yesterday's smashup, and this switch was one of the remedies he diced to try out. Others occurred to him, but will
be reserved for later application if
necessary.
The new arrangement Is expected to
strengthen the defense without weak
ening the offense appreciably. Experience has shown that two positions are
considerably weakened by the use of Hoffman on first base. During his long
period of service in the outfield Hof
man has lost the hang of fielding low thrown balls and sharp grounders. He

There was the usual squabbling as I ry Nov,ak Z1."?,
to umpire's decisions on both sides, but taking the game by and large, as our 'steemed H. E. K. would put it, they were eminently fair and each team probably had grounds for a kick.
Long could easily have called Hudson safe at home plate on his steal, giv
ing the usual advantage to the runner, but the Crown Point catcher was
called out. The Harbor crowd raised
kick on Durwe's decision at second
plate, but there were many who tes
tify that the runner was not touched by the ball, he sliding under Stallman. Durwe is recognized as one of the most
honest umpires in the league and only entered the game yesterday at the in
vitation of the Harbor crowd, who called for a field umpire. Seen from
the side lines the game was played as follows:
Indiana Harbor, first inning Hick
man fans, Faulkner to Smith, who muffs easy one, landing him on initial sack. Stallman to right field for two
bagger. O'Brien walks. Meinke hits to Henning, who doubles Faulkner and Meinke, retiring the side in one of the
prettiest plays of the season.

YOU CAN BET ON SUNDAY Winona Lake, Ind., July 17. Glenn H. Curtiss, who made three flights here Saturday in his hydro-aeroplane, will probably return to Winona August 15, for another demonstration of his machine. The large attendance yesterday was so well pleased and the flights were so unique, being made from the water in all cases, that a. contract Is being completed to bring the aviator back again.
Billy Sunday, the evangelist, went with Curtiss on his second flight and seemed to enjoy the ride, though at the north end of the lake the aviator, afraid to turn with him, asked him to get out and take a car back to the park. Sunday refused, and remained In the machine for the round trip.

If he should get by Freddie and then defeat Matt Wells, he will have accomplished more In the way of subduing John Bull's pugilistic representatives than any lightweight champion this country has developed. But Welsh does not think he is marked for defeat. Freddie says that while he was disappointed In the showing Owen Moran made, he hardly expected Moran to win. He knew it was going to be a contest which called for all
the strength the men possessed and he felt that Moran had dissipated too much In his time to put up a strenuous battle. Welsh thinks himself Wolgast's equal In ruggedness. He says he Is no dunce a tlnfighting and for that matter he believes he is a greater all-around ring man than the lad frdm Michigan. He hints that if he finds Wolgast Is a bit too good for him at close work he will be able to change his tlctics.
