Richmond at Decatur. Kokomo at Van Wert. Portland at P.luffton. Decatur, Ind., Aug. 1 4. Richmond took the opening game of the series yesterday afternoon by a score of 2 to 3. The game was close and of the nerve wrecking variety. Umpire Thompson met the displeasure of the local fans and at the close of the contest he had to he escorted from the lot tinder police protection. His calling out of a Decatur runner at the plate In the fourth Inning and his calling Minzler of Richmond safe at

the plate In the eighth brought down upon his shoulders the wrath of the Decatur fanatics. Casey Horn was In the box for Richmond and although he was hit twice as hard as Laxon, who twirled for the Commodores, the big Quaker kept his hits well scattered and could not be found by the Decatur batsmen when hits were needed. Jim Cameron failed to put In an appearance and "Weaver was shifted to first base where he played a fast game. Fleming played In right field and he assisted materially in winning the gamo for his team. Richmond made its first score in the fourth. Morris drew his base on balls was sacrificed to second and then counted on Jessup's hard single. Decatur tied the neore In the sixth and Richmond brought In Its winning run In the eighth by a double steal. 'Minzler first up In this inning was given transportation to first and was sacrificed to second by Fisher. Minzler went to third on Fleming's single and then a double steal was successfully pulled off, Minzler counting while an erfort was being made to run down Fleming. Just before Minzler crossed the r the ball was thrown to Catcher Winger and the Decatur players claimed that Minzler was out, so did the crowd, but Umpire Thompson could not 'see it that way. At the close of the game the crowd went after Thompson but the Umps was saved from rough handling by the police who promptly surrounded Thompson and acted as his body guard until the danger of mob vio

lence was passed. Score:

SUNDAY GAME AT CENTERVILLE Cambridge City, Ind., Aug. 14. The All-professionals will play the Centerville second team Sunday morning on the latter's grounds.

What first started the wrath of the Decatur bugs against Umpire Thompson In the game Tuesday was a beauti

ful play on the part of Wiltermood. With a runner on third a Decatur batsman lined out a clean single. Wiltermood fielded the ball rapidly and by a beautiful heave, nailed the Decatur runner at the plate. The Commodores stirred up the fans by swarming around Thompson and protesting that Jessup did not touch the runner. mm Nat Fleming is working against the Commodores in the second game and he will do everything in his power to even up with them for the drubbing they gave him Sunday. Fleming is in good condition and should win his game. Conner will probably pitch for

the locals Thursday. There promises to lie record break

ing attendance at the thre3 games Port

land plays here this week, the serie

starting Friday. The local fans figure that Richmond has Portland to beat for the flag. ad besides that the

Jays are big favorites here. They have a wonderfully strong team right now and It will mean three hard bat

tles for the locals to beat them.

Giucd Clothes. "In Koea." said a tailor, "needle and thread are unknown to tailoring. Their placi is taken by glue." "Glue?" "Glue a peculiarly fine glue made of fish. Making Korean clothes, the tailor does not briug two edges of cloth together and then slowly and painfully unite them with fine stitches of the needle. No; he overlaps the edges slightly, brushes on a little glue, presses the seaiu together and seta the garment away to dry. "I wore glued clothes in Korea and found that they lasted almost as well as sewed ones." New Orleans TimesDemocrat. Reading Aloud.
