-!rpr (By Tort.) Richmond, 6; Medicine Hat, 3. To acclimate themselves to the Santa Claua atmosphere, which Is popular only with the coal man, our sturdy athletes slept Tuesday night In the cold storage plant. Wednesday afternoon they were prepared to meet the Medicine Hat outfit, champs of the Polar Bear league, at their own game Ice baseball. Result, Richmond 0, Benriey's Icebergs, 3. Casey Horn worked for the locals and he gave the lie to the popular legend that he 13 a hot weather twirler. Mr.
Horn pitched the best gamo of the sea
son. allowing the Icebergs only five
hits and whiffing out eight of them. Mr. Yerkes,. of the Nashville Southern league team, and late of the St. Louis Nationals, worked for Medicine Hat. Mr. Yerkes was nearer the sun than any other man on the lot, but even he suffered with the cold. The first three innings he was reserved and stingy, but after that our demons belted him at will, accumulating all told, nine safeties. Not a Quaker did the lengthy Mr. Yerkes breeze. Both Messrs. Horn and Yerkes used the cuspidor curve, formerly known as the spit ball. The former got away with it, but Mr. Yerkes complained that he could not use the delivery properly because his saliva froze to his fingers. Mr. B. Lally, limps, again occupied the limelight. The visitors greeted Mr. Lally with "Good afternoon, Jesse James," when the beaming Bud appeared on the scene. In the course of
the game Mr. Lally broke his own record. Some of his decisions will be pickled and preserved as curios.
Bugs Frost Bitten. One hundred frost bitten bugs enjoyed the contest, the harmony of which was dislocated now and then by an error. Each team perpetrated four mlsplays. Two of our errors were costly ones. The visitors also made two costly errors. The game was interesting but there were no special features to it except Parker's beautiful
three bagger, Jessup's hitting and Johnson's good third base play. Fisher made some nice stops at first base. Mr. Fisher still alleges that he a bachelor notwithstanding the fact that he was billed to take the life sentence Tuesday. He refuses to explain the mystery. In the first two Innings the Iceberg3 piled up two runs. Our demons tied the score in the fourtn on an error by Barton and hits by Jessup and Fisher. In the fifth Weaver walked and counted on Parker's smokey triple. A double by Johnson and a single by Jessup gave these two men an opportunity to pull off a double steal, Jessup coaxing a throw to second out of Tacks Benney, the human phonograph. This
tillowed Mr. Johnson to waltz home. Horn scored Jessup on a 6ingle. Parser singled in the seventh and counted on errors by Barton and Valdoise. Score:

Columbus, O., Sept. 26. The longest day's program raced on any track this season was disposed of Wednesday at the Driving Park, the races being called at 10 o'clock a. m.. The big race was the $5,000 Merchant's

The California mare did not seem to have her speed in the first two Leats, got away slowly and could not get up amongst the leaders, Margaret O winning both heat3 in splendid style. McHenry got the mare away in good shape in the third heat, took the lead early and won without trouble, although Margaret O, who Is a great stretch trotter, tried hard and was only beaten a length in 2:07, remarkably fast time considering the fact that the
horses had to face a strong, cold wind through the back -stretch. Sonoma Girl held the field safe in the two final heats, although Margaret O made a brave try in each round. The time in the fifth heat was 2:0s1, within one-quarter of a second of the world's record for a fifth heat, Leld by John Nolan.
Medicine Hat will probably be the attraction here the remainder of the week. Manager JessuD has arranged
to have this fast outfit play here Saturday and Sunday and it is probable that they will also play here Friday. Owing to the cold weather the atten
dance at the games played so far this ;
week have been light. If Old Sol will kindly beam forth again the fans will turn out as of yore. The Medicine Hat with its lineup of fast minor leaguers is well worth seeing. The Canadian champs play faster ball than any team that has been seen here this season. Yingling to Pitch. "Ying" Yingling, the crack Detroit American league twirler, whose name listens like a doorbell, will twirl again Medicine Hat either Saturday or Sunday. Yingling is one of the promising southpaws of the country. Reds October 8. It is probable that the Cincinnati Reds will be seen here October 8. Local fans are staunch rooters for the Reds through thick and thin and a big crowd will turn out to see them.
Delegations fro mnearby towns will also be in evidence. On October 9 ' the Reds play Dunkirk at Muncie. j

"New York is a starless city," said a recent resident as he sat on his newly
acquired suburban porch and looked on our neighbor Mars. "The only ones to be seen there are the so-called stars on the stage, while the real stars are shut out by buildings and the street lights that blind the eyes to anything beyond them."
FIRST BOWLING MATCH IN SEVERAL YEARS Idieman and Hunt Teams Contested at City Alleys.
LATTER WON BY 113 PINS.
The first bowling match of the season, in fact the first bowling match that has been played in Richmonfl for several years, was pulled off Wednesday night at the City Bowling at leys between the Idlemans and the Hunts, the latter team winning two out of three 'games. In the three games the Hunts rolled a total of 2,213 pins against 2,102 pins rolled by the Idlemans. Roy Carmen made the high mark, rolling 200 pins in the third game. The management of the City bowling alleys announces that from this time on one match game a week will be played. Interest in bowling has been revived as evidenced by the big crowd that witnessed the match game Wednesday night. The following are the individual scores of the players on each of the two contesting teams Wednesday night:

CANCEL THE GAME AT THE ELEVENTH HOUR New Castle Cannot Meet the Q. & B. Ball Team.
Manager Babylon of the Q. & B. team of this city has been notified by the manager of the Krell-French baseball team of New Castle that it will
be impossible for him to get a team together to meet the Richmond ag-
154 ! gregation next Sunday. His men he
says, are scattered and it will be impossible to present a strong front to the Richmond team if they go to the "flower city" and hence he deems it inadvisable for the local men to go Sunday. The Quigley and Babylon team has been rather unfortunate this entire season, having many of Its games canceled at the eleventh hour. For this reason the season as a whole has not been as successful as was hoped.

Untif a few years ago the Philippine
islanders held their Sunday on the day which was Monday to the inhabitants of the neighboring island of Borneo. This curious anomaly arose from the historic fact that the Philippines were discovered by Spanish voyagers coming from the east around Cape Horn, while Borneo was discovered by Portuguese coming irom the west, and sailors lose or gain a day, according to their direction in crossing the Pacific.

If you sell groceries to Mr. Smith, it is only natural that Mr. Smith should expect you to buy meat in his shop. Isn't that perfectly fair? Well, then, if you earn your living in Richmond, is it unfair to expect you to spend what you can of it here? Many of those who do their shopping out of town, do so thoughtlessly. J If your brother sells furniture, you wouldn't go into another city to buy a chair just because it looked pretty and cheap in the show window, would you? Wouldn't you say to yourself: "My brother can get me that chair just as cheap. I couldn't think of getting it from anyone else." If you have to live and earn a livelihood in Richmond, every other person who is similarly situated is your brother. He can get it for you just as cheap, no matter what it is. J
