Games Saturday. Decatur at Richmond. Van Wert at Portland. Bluffton at Kokomo. PORTLAND 4; RICHMOND 1. Portland, Ind., Aug. 23. Loose playing on the pnrt of the Quakers lost a 4 to 1 game to the Jays yesterday afternoon. Fleming was In the box for the visitor3 and he pitched his usual good game but- the support rendered him was decidedly off. There were three fielding errors on .J he part of the Quaker Infield and there were also several errors of ommission. Ritter allowed a score by not at

tempting to capture an easy pop up.

He left the field after this perform

ance, complaining that his feet were

sore. Hunter was substituted and he

played a splendid game, his capture ot

a long fly near the fence while running with his back to the ball being the fielding feature of the game. Bull Durham was on second when this feat was pulled off and the big fellow wa3 so confident that Hunter would not get under It that he sprinted all the way home. As a result Hunter turned his sensational catch Into a double play by throwing the ball to Fiant at second. Richmond made Its one tally in the third. With sharp fielding this run would have been enough to win the game for the visitors. In the tnird Fiant got a life on Parker's error. Fisher sacrificed him to second and he scored on a single by Fleming. The four runs made by Portland were due to errors, slow fielding and an opportune hit now and then. The score:

Struckout Hunt 10; Fleming 8. Double plays Fisher to Fiant to Hicks; Hunter to Fiant. Stolen bases John Bambraugh, Durham. Time 1:20. Umpire Burke. KOKOMO 3; BLUFFTON 2. Bluffton, Ind., Aug. 23. Kokomo won here Thursday in a ragged and listless game 3 to 2. Both teams put up a poor exhibition of ball. The locals lost through Inability to connect with Grimes. Several times Blufffon men were on third and second, with but one out, but it was impossible to

even send a fy Into the outfield. Both sides scored on errors. Score:

Dunkirk, Ind., Aug. 23 Manager James Frazee of the disbanded Dunkirk ball team, is trying to get the

team together at the close of the I. O.

leasrue season to play a series of

games, with the pennant winners. It now seems that he will succeed. The

games will be played at Muncie, Dun

kirk and the league town. Either

Richmond or Portland is sure to land the flag and such a series will no doubt be a great drawing card with which to close the season. The Crown City team before disbanding won eleven out of sixteen games from the Jay Birds, and from the Quaker City seven out of ten. Much interest is manifested here in next season's club and no doubt the old team will represent Dunkirk next year, playing under the name of Dun-kirk-Muncie club.

PITCHER'S SERVICES WANTED.. New Castle, Ind., Aug. 23. The

New Castle I. I. base ball team would like to hear from a first-class pitcher

to officiate at a game next Sunday. Any pitcher desiring such a position and having an open date should phone to Perry Adams, manager, New Castle, Ind.

interest Is being displayed.

Star Football Player Going to

KING ALSO TO BE AWAY

Clifford Carey, star football player

and track athlete who was to have re

turned to Earlham College this fall

has decided to attend school in Color

ado. Earlham football enthusiasts

were rejoicing a few weeks ago on ac count of the prospects of Carey re

turning to the Quaker fold. He was

by long odds the best player on the Earlham team last fall and was looked

on this year to strengthen the Earl

ham back field for which at present

there is not the best of material.

King, the Manual Training school player who did valiant service for the Quakers at half back last season, will

accompany Carey to Colorado and

Earlham will therefore lose him for

the team.

Dr August Dupre, chemical adviser

to the explosives department of the English home office since 1873, has died at Sutton. Surrey. At the time of

the Fenian agitation it was his duty

to examine the bombs and infernal ma chines discovered by the police.

Prof. E. P. Trueblood in charge of

athletics at Earlham college announces that Roy Conrad, crack athlete of the Darlington, Ind., high school Is to attend Earlham this fall. Conrad Is regarded as one of the most promis

number him among their students.

Conrad has already engaged his

room at the college and there Is no doubt of his coming despite the fact

that strong pressure was brought to bear on him by other Institutions.

Prof. Trueblood made a isit to Dar
