Indiana Harbor was all set yesterday to put the aoft pedal on Hammond's triumphant march toward the pennant. They might have been successful In their object had it not been for Hammond's strenuous objection to the plan and Black's failure to remember what part he was to play In the scheme. In the first Inning. As It was the visitors scored two runs in the first, which proved sufflcien to win the game as the Indians could not squeeze through more than one. Staten, who was the first man up for Hammond, whanged the first ball pitched by Bradshaw for a two-bagger, View following with a single to left. Meddy was the next man up and then was when Black made his faux pas. The batter knocked a high fly just back of second base which any one of three men who were on the ground might have taken, either the the center fielder, second baseman or shortstop. The others gave way to Black, but he allowed the ball to bounce out of his hands, permitting

But Bergman arose to the occasion and promptly struck both these batters out. Harbor had another chance In the ninth Inning when Dougherty opened that round with a two-bagger. Baker, who was put in to bat for Lathrop, hit along the first base line, the catcher fumbling the ball long enough to make It a close out at first and Dougherty j was naiiea ai ine piaie in a. aanng attempt to take two bases and tie up tho srnre on an Infield out. Incident ally he butted into the catcher at the plate, putting Kruger out of business for some time. Stallman went out on an easy fiy to first base, winding up a verv exciting game. It was a pitchers , duel from start to finish, neither man having any advantage over the other. They both struck out .ten men and allowed six hits and both were Invulnerable at critical times.

Crown Point walloped Laporte at the Hub yesterday afternoon, gathering a sum of twelve well earned runs, while the Laporte county aggregation never got around, to the home plate. Hennlng, Crown Point's famous slab artist, was In superb form yesterday afternoon and for nine Innings fed the Laportans .doses . of . whitewash- and made them like It. He made them come and go and with some - fancy backing by -his team mates the Hubltes saw their idols back In their old form. By defeating Lapdrte . yesterday . Crown Point went Into seventh place, while their opponents went down Into the cellar two games behind. The game, was attended by a large crowd , of fans, who are now wagering that Crown Point will be among the topnotchers at the close of the season. CUBS TAKE CLASH III THIRTEENTH, 6-5 Downs' Hit, Sacrifice, Wild Heave and Needham's Fly Score Big Tally.

For that thirteenth Inning run In conjunction with what happened In ct tiih reduced New York's lead to the mere bagatelle of eleven games. Starting with a handicap of three runs against them the Cubs fought.

Stockholm, July 15. The Marathon, the classic of the Olympic games, was won yesterday by K. K. McArthur of South Africa, with G. W. Gltshaw, also representing South Africa, second. The winner's time was 2 hours and 36 minutes for the course of about 25 miles. Gaston Strobino of South Paterson, N. J., an unheralded runner, who scarcely figured to finish In the great race, upheld the honor of the United States by taking third places, after one of the most remarkable sprints fussed and scrapped themselves into a hard knot with the Hubites and again in the eighth Inning. By that time both Managers Chance and Kllng had drown Into the fray two of their best pitchers in Richie and Tyler. FAN TAUGHT ED WALSH HOW TO GAIN CONTROL There was a time when Ed Walsh was not a great pitcher. In 1904 his speed was terrific, but his control was so bad that he had literally no idea where the ball was going. He could seldom get catchers to help him practice, and had to fall back on an enthusiastic fan. This fan, after handling his erratic shoots, gave Ed some advice. He doesn't know if Walsh took It, but his work Indicates that he did something. "After the season of 1905," said the bug, "I walked to the static with Walsh. I asked him what he Intended to do In the winter. He said he was going to do nothing. "Then I told him he was about the worst pitcher I had ever seen and described to him how Christy Mathewson, before he had gained control, had rented a barn, painted a target at one end, and pitched into the target all winter, until he emerged In the spring with the best control in the league. "I don't know if Walsh took the

Although they lost the event with the exception of one point, team honors for the Marathon undoubtedly belong to the United States. There were ten Americans among the first twenty to cross the finish line. A grain of consolation Is also derived from the fact that Matthew Mc Grath won the hammer throw with a toss of 180. feet 6 Inches, and C. C Chllds won third -In that event. McGrath's throw was almost 11 feet beyond the previous Olympic record. In the big race Ihe two South Africans had a battle royal. ' At the halfway post they were running first and third respectively, with Kohlemalnen, the Finn, In second place. When a few miles from the finish the latter dropped out, the struggle between the two team matas began. At the finish McArthur dropped exhausted but was soon revived. hint, bue he certainly had the control when he helped pitch the Sox to the pennant next year."
