It was the last half of the eleventh inning and the Quakers were on even terms with Van Wert. Two of the locals were down. Ban man rested on tecoud, having pilfered that bag after .Singling. "Jim Crow" Pierce came to bat. In the fourth he had put the 'Quakers in the running with a timely hit, thereby winning a happy home. Now in this fatal eleventh he was called upon to cinch aforesaid happy home. Just to put the game on ice beyond a question of a doubt our new right fielder took a chew of "Timely Hit" plug before leaving the bench. To continue on with our story as Mr. Bauman cavorted off second Mr. L. Hunt grooved the ball across 1 he pan and against this above mentioned ball. Mr. Pierce leaned his bat --biff". Then the crowd went home and there was much rejoicing for Richmond had won its first league game of the season. The game was one of the old fashioned, nerve-tingling affairs, full of hard hitting and sensational fielding. The score shows each team made ten hits, but Messrs. Hunt and Fleming were hit much harder than it appears in print. The par excellent support each twirler received held the score down to small figures and kept the base hit column from being packed to standing room only. Fleming, despite the hard jolts his delivery was greeted with, was cool and steady in pinches and to him a good measure of credit is due for the victory. Van Wert made its three runs in the first. Gregory, first up, drew the only pass Fleming issued. Stewart sacrificed him then singles by Campbell and Grey and a double by Harding yielded the three runs. In the second . . .. . . l ... , i cr . . . j . u .. . ... i v-auir?i on it'll i'ii wnu it ni i t'iiuii& double. Jim went to third on Parker's scratch hit. When Parker started for second Hardin let loose with a wild peg and Cameron counted. Bauman hit a line drive to Stewart who executed an unassisted double play by beating Parker back to second. Hurst Walked and promptly stole second. Jim Pierce then drove Hurst home on a pretty single to left. Rambaush pop ped out. In the eighth Fleming led off "with a single and went to third on outs by Shinn and Cameron. Fleming then tied the score by counting on Parker's second scratch hit. Bauman ended the Inning by skying to Grey. It has been related how, in the eleventh, the locals went home with the bacon. Hurst, Shinn, Bauman, Campbell nd Jonas Bambaugh executed the fielding features of the game. In the third Hurst shut off a Van Wert tally by a marvelous catch off Grey's bat and a throw Into Parker who had time to catch Campbell off first, the big Van Wert center fielder being confident that Grey's drive would never be captured. When Hurst speared the ball Campbell was nearly to third base. Bauman pulled off a hair-raiser by doing the balloon act and with one hand spearing a line drive. In the ninth Van Wert with one down and two men on bases was prevented from scoring by Shinn's capture of Hunt's line drive and his beautiful return throw which nailed the runners to their bases. Fleming furnished a surprise by his excellent batting. Hunt hit like a fiend but played in hard luck. He was robbed of a two base hit after a clean drive because he cut first base. Summary :

Affairs of the (By Tort.) If that class of sports who are so enthusiastic about having league base ball in Richmond, but who never contribute two bits toward the support of the team, (those fellows, you know, who meet you on the street after the game and ask. "what's the score?") will turn out and help swell the crowd at the ame Sunday, the base ball club will greatly appreciate their support. The gait the four teams in the Indiana-Ohio league are now traveling is productive of as good base ball as can be seen in any minor league in this part of the country. Probably the local fans will soon appreciate this fact and go out to witness a few games. The way the team is now being supported is kind of hard on Richmond's reputation of being the best, minor league ball town in this part of the country. If Jim Pierce can continue with that battin gspree he went out on yesterday, the fans will be pleased to allow him to remain in that condition the remainder of the season. Jim made two hits and both came when hits meant runs. Pierce, Stewart. Stolen bases Bauman 2, Hurst, Grey, Jo. Bambaugh. Double plays Stewart, (unassisted).

The Phillips theatre was inspected by the State Factory Inspector and it. complies with the law in every respect. The Phillips Theatre was closed by me in order to form a vaudeville combination with the Gennett Theatre so that a better class of vaudeville attractions could be brought to Richmond. This can be done because it eliminates competition and secures the support of all vaudeville patrons, with the operating expenses of only one house. O. G. MURRAY. Genius. Trovldence seems to be generous and at the same time economical ia the matter of providing men and women of genius to a gaping world. Economical because such "Ersheinungen" are rare, generous because every human being, to whatever generation he belongs, will probably have the good fortune during the span of his years to watch a portion of the transit of some great comet National Review.

THIS TRIO IS A TERROR ON ENGLISH TURF. ' ' -

Sporting World Hardin permitted one Quaker score to come in and three bases were stolen on him. but he certainly did do some i clouting. j The locals now appear to have j found their batting eyes and what is better, are hitting when blngles are . productive of runs. j Hurst covered acres of ground yesterday. The red top pulled down five cloud piercers and besides had two as sists. The one bad local outfield play was when Hurst and Shinn. two speed j merchants went after a high one. Both ; did the Aiphonse and Gaston act and the ball dropped between them. Grey is still as big as he was and he can still clout the ball in the same old fashioned way. He made two screaming singles and Hurst robbed him of a sure home run. The only fielding misplay made by the locals was excusable and did not count for anything. Bauman, after lidding a hard chance, made a poor throw to Cameron, allowing the runner a life. With Cameron on first the Richmond infield strikes us as being about the sweetest in Hie league. HORSEMEN OF STATE TO ELIMINATE GAMBLING Organization to Protect Racing From Disrepute. An organization among the leading horsemen of the state has been affected for the purpose of eliminating gambling and drinking practices from the rare meets.' The organization is not a move toward prohibition, but was ronsummated for self protection as the rices bring racing into disrepute according to the organizers. THE CHARM OF ISLANDS. What I Miss.d by Those Who Live Far From the Sea. No men of the world are so to be pitied. I think, as these who dwell fat; from the sea. They shall never kuow but a piece of life. A plaiu, to be sure, j Is very well. It responds delicately enough to the humor of the seasons, changing from green to gold, from j gold to dun. from dun to white. It has, too. Its moods, its laughters. OS melancholies, its rushings of the wind, its Illimitahlllty of the dark. A hili. though, is better that is, a hill that looks across a plain, never one that is huddled among its fellows, for there one is caught like a beetle in a cup A hilt gives one a sense of freedom and a perspective upou the world. It Is something to look down on the parquetry of field and town and wood and stream, to keep vigil upon the drama woven invisibly below one's eyes. And it has moments a bill; certain nights of stars, certain bursts of storm, certain iridescent afternoons, when the whole tragedy of autumn is unrolleJ at one's feet. But above all else In the world give me an islaud! There is your true microcosmos! There you hold In your hand, as it were, the essence and epitome of the universe. Your own earth spreads under jour feet. Your owu sky hangs over your head- Your owu sea encircles you. l'our own portion I of life is meted out to you day by day. distinct from that of other men. For not the least charm of an island is Its privacy. An islet, of course. 1 mean one from which you may catch the glint of water on every side. Otherwise your island is no better than a pasture. Whether you be a hermit or whether you have a book of verses underneath the bough and the requisite concomitants or whatever be your personal circumstances, you are yet divided from a hostile or iadilerent world. You are at liberty to feel and to test your own personality. Y'ou are not overborne by the rush of humanity which Is the burden of terra Crma. ScriCner's Magaain

"Mrs. Lambert, I think, we will have to cut down expenses," remarked Mr. Lambert timidly. To his intense surprise she made no reply. Then he grew bolder. "And I am certainly of the opinion that you are spending too much money on gow ns and hats." Again no answer. Ills bravery jump- . pd i:; another notch. "And. Mrs. LamWrt. I must say fur thermore that we will have no more teas or receptions." Silence. Mr. Lambert grows daring, courageous. "It is simply an outrage the way you lavishly expend my hard earned mon ey. You have no consideration and allow your extravagant ideas to carry you ff your feet. Do you realize that we are living beyond our means:"' No answer. "Do you know that 1 am making SI 00 a month and you are deliberately spending S200? Can't you see the family is bound to land in the poorhouse?" Sile-nce. Mr. Lambert's fortitude is unbounded. "1 have stood your impositions long enough, Mrs. Lambert. Do you understand? You have henpecked me until life is now unbearable. Now I intend to take hold of the reins. I will manage affairs and you will obey." There was a sudden crash, then a yell. Mr. Lambert's head came Into contact with the bedpost as Mrs. Lambert shook him furiously, and she exchiimed: "Can't you keep your mouth shut when you are asleep? What ia the world are you dreaming about anyway? It is simply barbarous the way you disturb my rest after I work so hard all day keeping the house in order. And you know I am worn out from tea this afternoon, yet" And Lambert rea.ized it was all a dream and began nursing the slowly swelling bump on his head. Bohemian Magazine.

FIGHT FOR ILLINOIS Johnson Men Are Going After That State With a Vengeance. DESIRE STATE DELEGATES. Chicago, 111., Mav 10. Definite and deliberate steps were taken Friday to swing the Illinois delegation to the Democratic national convention from the Bryan column to the cause John A. Johnson of Minnesota. The first, announcement was made, last, night, of the informal organization of the Chicago Johnson Club, backed by some of the most conservative Democrats of the city in whose number is at least one delegate to the Denver convention. Twf nty-five thousand postal cards went into the mails last night, sent info every ward in the city, asking signatures to a pledge card to the Johnson movement. When these are returned the formal organization will bo completed and the Johnson propaganda will be spread into the state. The purposes of the Johnson organization are explained by Williams, whose name heads the list of signatures, and who says: "We desire to have a record upon which we can go to Denver and urge the Illinois delegation to stand for the strongest candidate, Governor Johnson. "This is but the first preliminary step. We will mean business and ex-j-.f'ct to see the Illinois delegation form the backbone of the Johnson forces at Denver." Juvenile Logic. pupil.
