CAMERON WON BATTLE
WITH HIS MIGHTY POLE.
Four Two Base Hits Hung Up
To His Credit, Making Best
Exhibition of Batting Ever
Seen at Athletic Park.
(BY TORT.) RICHMOND 3; VAN WERT 2. la a great ten inning game Richmond made it two straight from Van Wert Saturday afternoon. It was a pretty game to watch and a nose to nose fight clear under the wire. Jas. Cameron, the best all round first sacker in the independent belt, won the game with his mighty pole when he rapped out his fourth two base hit of the contest, driving Tom Ritter in ahead of the mighty swat. Cameron gave the best exhibition of batting ever seen at Athletic park. When he smashed out his fourth double in the tenth the crowd came to its feet bowling, i Sharing the lime light with Cameron was Tick Connor, the big Dublin recruit. It was Tick's first appear
ance In professional company and the big fellow was Just a trifle nervous and inclined to be wild, but he had the goods with him, holding the visitors well in hand from start to finish. Connor was given brilliant support by his team mates and when inclined to "balloon" they would bring him to earth ty their coaching. Tick looks good to the fans and his team mates and it is a cinch that he will Improve steadily under the expert coaching of Manager Jessup. Only six hits were made off Conner and he breezed seven. Minzler is charged with two errors but the little fellow played a wonderful game at short, some of his stops being the hair-raising variety. Fisher also played a fast game at third and in left field Wiltermood participated in a fast double play, assisted by Ridgely and Cameron. Just to get a few kinks out of his under pinning, Wiltermood In the sixth beat out a hit to shortstop which was fielded and thrown cleanly. A Pretty Double Steal. In the kick off Richmond scored by a pretty double steel by Cameron and Jessup. Cameron after Ritter's out doubled to center. Jessup advanced him to third on a single. The manager then lit out for second and while playing tag with the Van Wert Infield Cameron romped home. . In the second Van Wert tied the score. Conklin Ringllng and then scoring on Minzler's error and Bockwitz hit A sharp double play by Wiltermood. Ridgely and Cameron

BASEBALL GOSSIP. (By Tort.)

section of the state. Pleased with

A big crowd is looked for.
Had T. Ritter been able to get on base every time J. Cameron smote out a two bagger the Rabbit would have retired from the lot after the game with his tongue trailing along with his shadow. Four hits for a to
tal of eight bases is a record not made every day in the week. The' best part of those swats was the fact that all of them were clean long drives. The last one perpetrated by Mr. Cameron was done thusly: Mr. Cameron: "put 'er where you put the other ones and see what I do to it." Mr. Grubbs: "Alright, you cigar Indian see what youse kin do wid dls one." Here Is what happened "Biff," likewise "crash," then Mr. Cameron rested on second base.
The prospect of league ball is a most pleasing one to the local fans. All fandom was gossiping about the league Saturday and the predictions were made that It would be a great success. Manager Jessup leaves Monday afternoon for Muncie to attend the league meeting. He will take one big century note as a guarantee that this city will stick in the organization from start to finish. Van Wert will have to be strengthened if it expects to make a showing in the Indiana-Ohio league. The team plays a pretty fielding game but they appear to be weak at the bat. There is some prospect of the Indiana-Ohio league becoming an eight club league instead of six club league.

Conner soared to the azone but was brought to earth before any serious damage had been perpetrated. Kelley and Folley walked, then Betz scored Kelley with a single. Conklin was hit by a fast inshoot and took his bag. Conner then organized himself into a salvage corps and ended the agony by striking out Hillinger.
Van Wert maintained its lead of one
run until the sixth, when they handed
the locals a tally. Wiltermood, with
one down, beat out a beautiful infield
hit and then promptly lit out for sec

Indianapolis meeting of placing the fast Dunkirk team at Muncie. Dunkirk is not as strong as it was a few weeks
ago, having lost its star battery Hay and Wolf. The former ha3 gone to Chicago and Wolf has gone to James
town. If Tom Ritter would make a prac
tice of beating out bunts instead of
trying to "line 'em out" the fans are
confident he would improve his bat
ting average considerably. There is
but few players who can get down to
first any faster than the Rabbit and
he is able to lay down nice bunts but
for some unknown reason he seldom
attempts to do so.
Big Gene Moore showed the Central league fans at Wheeling what real
pitching is when he twirled for South
Bend against the Stogies Friday.
Gene let the Stogies down with three hits but the best his team could do
was to make it a tie game 1 to 1.
Gene also secured two hits.

the park was secured and put in condi

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.
Your sons probably please you as well as you pleased your father. If you don't look carefully after your own affairs, who do you Imagine will? A good many people try to administer forgiveness and punishment at the same time. About all some men get for their efforts to be dignified is a reputation of having the swelled head. The greatest triumph for a boy Is the privilege of being accepted as an equal by boys somewhat older than himself. Don't begin to wonder how other people can afford so many things that you can't afford. Thatls a big step In the direction of growing envious and sour. We have noticed that people who do exactly as they please, whether their friends like it or not, get along about as well as those who are always trying to please. Atchison Globe.

Tobacco Smoke Poisonous. It is often said that tobacco smoke Is a powerful germicide. The composition of tobacco smoke is complex, the principal constituents being oils of a tarry nature. Nicotine Itself is a strong germicfJe, but the quantity of this poison in tobacco smoke is minute. The oily matter which accumulates In a tobacco pipe is highly poisonous, but does not contain any appreciable quantity of nicotine, the chief constituent of this residue being a very poisonous oil known as pyridine. Tobacco smoke contains a decided quantity of carbon monoxide, which is a preservative
and which must possess germicidal properties. One of the principal constituents accounting for the germicidal properties of tobacco smoke Is the powerful antiseptic formaldehyde. New York Herald.

Domestic Weather Prophets. Probably everybody knows that there are hygroscopic plants which indicate more or less clearly the quantity of moisture in the atmosphere. A strip of seaweed hung in an exposed position frequently does duty as a popular and easily comprehended weather glass, although it may be doubted whether its predictions are of much value. More reliance can be placed in the behavior of a pine twig, which may very readily be pressed into service as a domestic weather prophet. Cologne Gazette.

ted as there is no town in the county
outside of Richmond unless It be Cam

interest taken in the National game
as there is at Dublin. Every Sunday
a large number of enthusiasts go out
of town to witness their favorite pas

could just as well be kept at home. In fact there is a crying need for the sport in this town and it is indeed a
shame that no one will become inter

a good team which will play the ma-

Mrj Shiverdecker to do the dishing

A team of the pick of Dublin play
ers if they were well trained in the fine points of the game such as is practiced by all professional teams could walk away with anvthiner in
this neck of the woods for there is Liberty Easily Defeated Ox-
certainly some mighty good material
for a good team here. A team composed of the following: Stant, Elliott, Joe and John Groves, Sebring, Gid Moore, Butler and "vVoodworth, with the reliable "Tick" Conner pitching would make a formidable team. But to make a first class team and one that would win games the team should begin to learn scientific base ball which means they should have team signals and practice the bunt, hit, "squeeze" play, hit and run play, the double steal and general team work. Such a team as this would un
doubtedly lay all comers In the shade
and it behooves some of our amatuers
to get busy with this sort of playing
and make a grand reputation for
themselves.
