JESSUP IIIDIGIIAIIT OVER THE ACTION An Attempt Was Made to Get Morris to Jump Back to Dunkirk Team. A LEAGUE MEETING SOON. HAY AND STEWART MAY NOT COME TO THE QUAKER CITYFANS ARE ANXIOUS TO SEE MORRIS WORK. Slanager Jessup will attend the league meeting which will be held at Indianapolis this week, at which meeting a schedule will be drafted. Manager Jessup will insist that the league include six clubs, thus barring Marlon, and it is thought Manager Hunt of Portland will back him in this position. It is reported that the remnant of the Dunkirk team has been transferred to Marion under the management of Shortstop Stewart, whom Jessup wants for the local team. Catcher .Wolf of the Dunkirk team Tuesday afternoon communicated with George Morris, the crack third bagger who has been signed for the Richmond team, and asked him to rejoin his old team which Wolf stated was going to be placed in Marion. Morris told him that he is satisfied here and intended to finish the season with Richmond. Manager Jessup regards Wolf's ac tion as tampering with a league play er under contract and he will enter a protest against such actions at the league meeting. The managers have agreed to respect the reserve lists of the various clubs. If the rule is not observed the league will be a shortlived affair. May Not Report. Pitcher Hay, the Dunkirk underhand wonder, and Shortstop Stewart have not yet reported to Manager Jessup and will not If Marlon is admitted into the league. Manager Jessup still has hooks out for good players and he hopes to present a strong lineup at the opening game here with Bluffton next Sunday. One or two new pitchers and a hard hitting outfielder are badly needed. Portland plays in Richmond Friday and Saturday of this week but these games will not figure as league championship contests. These two games are the only ones the locate have scheduled this week, Kokomo having canceled the two games with the locals which were to have been played at Kokomo. Fleming Likes Us. Nat Fleming thinks he will "winter" in Richmond. "I like Richmond and after the league season is closed I will stay here throughout the winter, that is if I can get a good Job." Maybe some of the other members of the team will winter here. The fans are extremely anxious to see Morris in action and the indlcations are that there will be a good crowd In attendance at the two Port land games. Richmond fans think Morris is the king of all third bag gers that have appeared here this season and there was great rejoicing when it was announced Tuesday that he had reported for duty. Fisher is given credit for his splendid third base play, but Morris' hitting will make him a more valuable man. Chicago passengers using C. C & L. trains land at 12th st (Illinois Central) Station; most conveniently located. Remember this. 6-tf DUNKIRK TRANSFERRED. 'Team Goes to Marlon Will Get Berth In Indiana-Ohio League. Dunkirk, Ind., July 24 The Dunkirk baseball team, which has made a "rep" for itself throughout the country has been transferred to Marion and may be given a berth in the new Indiana and Ohio League which has just been organized. The local bunch had been a winning one from the very start, but the people did not appreciate the article of ball which they were given chances to see. The club disbanded Sunday after the game with Portland and nearly all the players have secured positions elsewhere. Manager Frazee and Capt Stewart attended the meeting of the league "boosters held at Muncie and arrangements were completed for the bunch to go to the Grant County city.

Three boys baseball teams have been organized among the youngsters playing at the public school play grounds, and these teams will form a little league during the remainder of the present season, playing a long series of games. This is the only ap parent interest that has been shown in baseball at the public play grounds this year. Prof. N. C. Heironimus, In charge of the grounds, states that he is inclined to think the boys are taking more interest in professional ball, since the establishment of a team in tnis city, and do not care to play themselves. This is the only reason he says he can give for the apparent dislike for baseball this year. Round Trip from Chicago to to Sept. 30 to Denver, Colorado Springs your city via this route ticket agent.

MUCH IS EXPECTED OF THE FAIR RACES
Believed That Hagerstown Will Have the Best Ever Given at That Place. CAPITAL CITY IN EVIDENCE. MONDAY AND TUESDAY WERE LARGELY DAYS OF PREPARATION FLORAL HALL ATTRACTIVE TO THE WOMEN. Hagecstown, Ind., Jmy 24. Indian apolis horses and Indianapolis race goers will be in evidence here this week. There " are fourteen running horses from the Capital City, all entered or to be entered in the races and some of the matinee performers as pacers and trotters are here. In the 2:18 trot, to be contested on Friday, George Marott has entered Zoo Zoo and Fred Cline has entered Riddle There are twelve entries for that big race and it will be one of the racing events of the year in the Indiana fair circuit. G. G. Allen of Indianapolis, has entered a well known racing mare in another of the big races and H. C. Knode has sent another lot to strive for honors. Today the program is a pacing race for three-year-olds, with seven entries; a road race and a half mile run. On Thursday, which is always the big day of the fair, the 2:25 pace holds first place with sixteen entries; the 2:24 trot with twelve entries and the mile run, with probably fifteen horses to try for the big purse. Friday has the best racing events, the free for all pace, with ten entries of horses, with records of twelve and better; the 2:18 trot and the three-quarter mile run. Every one of the one hundred and twenty box stalls on the fair grounds contains a race horse. There were never so many here before and add! tional stalls must be built to accommodate others not yet arrived. All kinds of show stock have arrived and the best fancy stock show ever seen here is on the ground. Monday was the busy day at the grounds. Very nearly everything that goes to make up a first class fair is on hand. Tuesday was also largely a day of preparation. Every lady who visits the fair, visits the floral hall, before anything else Is seen. It will be a very conservative statement to say that this department, which is superintended by Alonzo Daugherty, assisted by Martin Werking, will excel any exhibit in previous years. Among some of the old exhib itors who are present this year, are: Mrs. Lynch and Mrs. Geo. Sands, Kokomo, Ind.; Miss Buck, Cincinnati, O.; Mrs. Vance, Paris, 111.; Mrs. Moore, Terre Haute, Ind. One half of the piano space in this hall is already occupied by the Starr Piano company, Richmond, Ind., whose pianos are noted all over the entire world for the durability of construction, sweetness of tone, and also the handsome cases in which they are put up. They will be demonstrated by Mrs. Fred Smith; the other half, Clinton Routh agent, for Schaefer pianos, will have filled in with, pianos and phonographs; also sheet music for sale. Exhibits in vegetables will not be as extensive as in former years owing to the early date on which the fair is held and the backward season. The poultry house is filled and running over, another house having had to be constructod for their benefit yesterday. The little folks have not been forgotten; the merry-go-round having been here for a week or more. FAVORITES FELL BY THE WAYSIDE. TUESDAY Results at Blue Ribbon Meeting Were a Surprise. DAN S. BEHIND MONEY. Detroit, Mich., July 24. The post poned opening of the Blue Ribbon meeting saw favorites fall by the way side Tuesday. Dan. S. the Indiana pacer, who was heavily played, tirst choice in the Chamber of Commerce $5,00O stake, finishing behind the flag in the second heat. The classic event was won by the black mare Reproachless, owned by W. B. Chisholm, of Cleveland, and driven by George Starr, who won the first Chamber of Com merce stake in 1S06. Another peculiar coincidence was the fact that the pon pacer Bonanza won second money for the third successive time. Reproachless was a rank out sider In the betting, not even being considered to have an outside chance by the betting contingent. Bonanza laid in third place In the opening heat until the stretch was reached, and then- Thomas set sail and won driving from Lei and Onward. PASTOR AT WILMINGTON, 0. Rev. Richard Newby.

DOG III DANGER OF
OEING TORN APART Struggle Between Woman Who Had the Animal and A Girl Claiming It. ATTRACTED LARGE CROWD. MRS. BURT PHILLIPS AND "STEL LA" WERE THE PRINCIPALS THE LATTER GOT THE DECIS ION. The struggle of a woman and a young girl over a dog, which took place about 5:30 o'clock Tuesday' af ternoon at the corner of North Eighth and E streets, attracted a large crowd The later ones who joined the crowd of spectators were attracted to the scene because they thought a street fight or a murder had taken place. The dog was with Mrs. Burt Phil Hps and she claimed that it was her property. This claim was disputed by the little girl, who said her name was "Stella" and who stated that her home Is in Fairview. Mrs. Phillips refused to give up the dog and an exciting scene ensued, in the course of which a man seized the dog and placed it in a nearby store where it could be saved from being pulled In parts by the disputants. About two months ago when Mrs. Phillips and some of her friends were enjoying a buckboard ride in the vicinity of Fountain City a half starved dog was found. It persisted In following the buckboard so it was finally taken charge of by Mrs. Phillips and brought to Richmond, and she has kept it ever since. Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Phillips and some friends were waiting at the corner of North Eighth and E streets to take a car to Glen Miller where they were to picnic. The dog was with Mrs. Phillips. A few minutes before the car arrived Miss Lilly Yost saw a little girl leading off "Fido" by the collar. She called Mrs. Phillips' attention to tne child's action and Mrs. Phillips at once went to the rescue of the canine. The little girl refused to give up the dog, stating that she had lost it some time ago and had never been able to locate it. Mrs. Phillips said that she did not believe the dog belonged to the child, whereupon Stella had hysterics and her screams attracted a large crowd. Mrs. Phillips heart would not melt and she said that she would not give up her claim to the animal until the arrival of her husband: If he said the child could have it it would be all right with her. "When the dog was removed to a near by store there was another outburst on the part of Stella and she threaten ed to have the entire picnic party arrested. At mis exciting moment a police man arrived and he tried to act the part of the Hague Peace Tribunal but his efforts were useless. Just as the officer had reached the verge of dis pair Mr. Phillips arrived and he heard the arguments of his wife and Stella concerning the ownershiD of the dog. Mr. Phillips finally 'handed down a decision to the effect if Stel la wanted the dog bad enough to give battie for it she was entitled to its possession. Midst the plaudits of the amused crowd Fido was handed to Stella, who .walked away with her pet, a happy smile shining through her tears. TENNIS TOURNAMENT GAME3JDN TUESDAY Campbell and Harrington Best Scott and Thornburg. TWO WELL PLAYED SETS. The July Tennis tournament was continued Tuesday afternoon on the public school play grounds, one match being .played in the doubles and one in the singles. Campbell and Harrington victors at doubles in the June tournament, defeated Scott and Thornburg by 'the scores of C-l and G-4 in two well played sets. Owing to Uie fact that Campbell and Harrington are touted to be extremely good in doubles, their opponents became frightened in the first set and did not play up to their standard. In; the second set, however much of this fright wore off and Campbell and Harrington had ta work to win it by the score of 0-4. In the singles Scott and Thornburg played against one another and the lat ter won by the score of G-3, G-2, play ing the entire two sets-in good manner. The boys tournament was started and in one set, all that could be played Tuesday afternoon, Haner and Nus baum defeated Converse and Klute 6-3.

Thompson and Dudley Elmer for the Nusbaum cup, was postponed to Thursday and Friday, thirty-six holes to be played. The War Rainstorm la Produced on the Sla&e. Probably not more than one person in a hundred stops ta consider how a rainstorm is produced on the stage. Few perhaps have ever given the subject any serious thought. During the couiiug up of the storm there is seen vast clouds of dust, the wind blows a gale, aud suddenly the rain comes down in torrents. It is an effect so natural that one almost imagines the elements are genuinely on the warpath. Vet, though the rain is real water, not a person is actually drenched, because the water comes down at the very front of the stage. while the players are well back and not at all exposed to its moisture. It might be thought that to produce a storm many intricate bits of machinery would lo necessary, yet such is not the case, for the simplest devices produce the effect desired. These are some gas pipes punctured by myriads of holes, through which the water runs from small barrels, each about half full, at either end. Tho sound of the wind is made by a revolving barrel which touches a heavy piece of canvas in Its rounds. . The thundr effect is caused by the artistic manner In which a man beats a bass drum, and the gusts of dust are blown across the stage by an electric fan. The flushes of lightning come from an electric battery connect ed by wires which when placed in contact throw out the dazzling flashes. A metal plate,-which had been specially prepared by first being heated to white heat and then scratched by a knife. Is placed in a calcium ISsht machine and gives the effect of lightning in the distance. New York Mail. POETICAL DEATHS. Welcoming; tttc Grim Reaper Wllh m Greeting In Verse. There have been numerous Instances of poetical deaths. The Emperor Adrian made a poetical address to his own soul ns death was casting the seal of flnal silence over his lips, and Marga ret of Austria while almost within the grasp of death in a terrific storm at sea calmly sat down and composed her epitaph In verse. The ship weathered the gale, however, and the epitaph was not needed. Philip Strozzi when imprisoned and awaiting death on the gallows resolved to commit suicide. Before he killed himself he carved with the sword upon which a few minutes later he impalo.1 himself the following verse from Virgil on the wall: "Iiise some avenger from my blood." The Marquis of Montrose when he was condemned to hnve his limbs nailed to the gates of four cities said that he was sorry that he did not have enough limbs to nail to all the cities in Europe, and this he put into beautiful verse as he was walking to his execution. Patris, a poet of Caen, finding himself at the door of death, composed a poem, and De Barreanx. it is said, wrote while on his deathbed a well known sonnet which was soon afterward translated into. English. New York Tribune. nia Home'i Finish. "Dear me, cabby," said an old lady a3 she alighted from a four vheeler at Liverpool street station, "yonr horse's knees are bad." "Don't you go and think It's becos Vs got into n silly 'abit of tryin to stand on 'is 'ead in the street, ma'am, 'cos it ain't," was the reply. "That there 'oss is a serious thinkic' 'oss, e is, ma'am. A werry prayerful anlmlle e is too.
