Hardly before the Cambridge City Grays had had opportunity to get used to their surroundings, the Richmond ' Starr's had collected three runs in the ' first inning of Tuesday's game at Ath- . letic park and this collection though i Jt afterwards proved sufficient to win ; the locals added two more and went i around the Grays us the Tri-County i League leaders, with a 5 to 2 victory. ' It was Mr. Wonettler's bad day and j such also can be said of the entire Cambridge team. The locals were wobbly but they did pull off some preti ty nice stunts. When Umpire Goodlln called play, i ho announced that Wonsettler the i Gray's $90 a month pitcher would i twirl, and bo he did to the first five locals, all but Markcy hitting safely I and Markey sacrificing but making ' llrst on Brennan's error. With two (runs over, Dr. Littel, the Gray's man- ' ager perked his beauty pitcher and 'substituted Cook in the box to delay the game while Kcrlin warmed up. "When Kerlin went in, Cook had not pitched to a soul but the catcher, and i Dauss, the sixth man up hit to left, bringing in Martin for the third tally. Foolish work on the part of Dauss in Running Rumpf off base when Warfel hit to Kerlin, cut down opport unity for further scoring. In the sixth Dauss was walked; stile second and scored on Finn's error Ion Warfel's rap. In the eighth Dauss got on on Finn's second error and cored on Miller's hit. Had Kerlin been properly supported Richmond would not have secured either of these two runs. I The Grays, who seemed dangerous in nearly every inning, as there was not a round when they did not have one or more on base, secured their first score In the third, when Ludwig, who had hit safely scored on Clarke's two bagger. In the fifth Cook was walked to first and scored on Rumpf's error. Line up and summary: Richmond AB R H PO A E

To those engaged in tbe handling1 of grain the natural shrinkage of shelled corn while In storage and in transit Is a matter of prime Importance and often a source of dispute because of shortage reported at time of receipt at warehouse and a further loss at date of final sale. In order to determine tbe amount of shrinkage or toss of weight occurring in corn tbe department of agriculture bas conducted an experiment with 500 ' bushels of shelled corn. At tbe time of storage the moisture content was 1S.8 per cent and at close of tbe test 14.7 per cent, or a loss of 4.1 per cent. Tbe weight per bushel had decreased from 54.7 pounds to 50 pounds, and tbe total loss of weight was 1.970 pounds, or slightly more than 7 per cenL Sir Roger d Coverley.

WOLGASTjNTHE 13TH

American Champion Defeats Britisher Moran. San Francisco, July 5. The clang of the gong for the start of the thirteenth round had not entirely died away when Ad Wolgast was on 'top of British Owen Moran, with both fists flying. Moran tried to stop Wolgast's rush with a swift right uppercut and failed. Back went Moran to the confines of the ring, the ropes bending beneath his weight as Wolgast drove his gloves against body and face. The men fought on the Fourth at Jimmy Coffroth's arena in the hot sun, although at times the sky was quite cloudy. They entered the ring at 3 o'clock and weighed in about 10 minutes before, both scaling under the stipulated figure of 133 pounds. The fight was for the lightweight chaml pionship of the world. There was plen- ' ty of betting, the ringside odds being 1 6 to 2 and 2 to 1. The gate receipts were noi announced, dui esumaies place the amount at about $40,000. Wolgast won considerable money backing himself. The body blows did the trick. Moran gasped like a chicken athirst for water and seemed to stop fighting. There were red welts across the stomach and ribs when the champion's fists had sunk into the flesh, and Moran's wideopen mouth was the best testimony that the punishment was severe. The Green Plover. Every "man on the land" knows the lapwing, or green plover, though he may not know that this bird is one of the very best friends of the farmer and literally worth its weight In gold several times. It takes Its proper name, lapwing, from the regular, slow flapping of the long, rounded wings. Because of its peculiar cry it Is popularly known in England as tbe peewit and In Scotland as peesweep. The Germans call it kiebitz. The French say that it can count "eighteen" (eighteen In French is dixbuit. which Is pronounced deezeweet). Tbe peewit is found In every country In Europe and Asia. In Great Britain it was once very common, being chiefly found in marshes, moors and meadows, but its numbers are gradually decreasing because its eggs are collected and sold as "plovers' eggs." for which there la a large demand during tbe proper season. Smallholder. The Hawaiian Language. The language of Hawaii Is very sim pie. To one who hears it for the first time comes tbe conviction that tbe aborigines expressed their sentiments in primitive vowel sounds, to which some consonants have been added. Eacb vowel is sounded as in Latin, and tbe words are easily pronounced by one who is patient and wishes to speak distinctly. Tbe pronunciation will be all the better if the speaker will draw out. almost drawl, tbe vowel sounds, for which reason the language is well suited to tbe doleful Hawaiian wall. Say Hoo-noo-lun-Iuu and let tbe woffa' sing itself. Rosary Magazine. Glass Windows. The first glass window in England was put up in an abbey about tbe year G80. Glass windows, however, did not become general for vrnjy hundred years, and as late as 1579 the glass casements at Alnwick castle, the Duke of Northumberland's seat, werf regularly taen down when the family was-away from home.

Sporting Gossip OUTSIDE THE BIG SHOW. WiAiita has taken over the Wellington franchise in the Kansas State League. The Hopkinsville team has a big lead in the Kitty League and is going strong. The Western League teams have locked Des Moines in the cellar and thrown the key away. The Roanoke team is crowding Norfolk at the top of the list in the Virginia League struggle. The Reading and Trenton teams are having a merry battle for the honors in the Tri-State League. Rockford and Green Bay are putting up a great fight for first place in the Wisconsin-Illinois League. It looks like a toss-up between Lowell. Worcester and Lawrence for the m:islin in the New England League. The Hattiesburg team, of the Cotton States League, has a pair of swell performers in Outfielder Smith and Pitcher Eaton. If Calgary can keep up its present fast clip, the team will be hard to beat for the Western Canada League pennant. Piqua has a regular ball player in First baseman Riehl. He is a clever fielder and leads the Ohio' State League in batting. Major league scouts are on the trail of Pitcher Cullop of the Knoxville team in the Appalachian League. Cullop has quite an assortment of fancy floaters. The Connecticut League will finish the season with six teams in the circuit on account of Northampton and Holyoke catching cold in the feet, and quitting the pastime. Frank Arellanes, formerly of the Boston Red Sox, who frankly admits that he is the handsomest man in the Pacific Coast League, is twisting 'em over for the Sacramento club.. Catcher "Hickory" Johnson and Pitcher Joe Willis, of the Decatur Three-I League team, are booked to eat in big league hotels, so 'tis said. McGraw wants Johnson and the Cubs are after Willis. It made grand-father smile the other day, when he read about Jake Beckley getting seven hits in a doubleheader. He said it made him think of his kid days when he used to watch Jake bust the fence. ''Old Eagle Eye" is managing the Hannibal Central Association team. WITH THE BOXERS. Johnny Moran, the actor-fighter, is anxious to clash with Al Delmont. Dick Nelson is on his way to his old home in Denmark, but expects to return in September. The lid has been clapped down on the boxing game in East Chicago. Too many promoters spoiled the meal ticket. . THE ARTISTS IDOL She Didn't Know Anything About Music; She Only Loved It. Tbe Incident happened upon one of the great ocean liners during an antumn trip when a famous violinist was among the passengers. At first hi firmly refused to play, but was flnaiiy persuaded, and upon the appointed evening the salon was crowded -with eager passengers. It was a most enthusiastic audience. Intelligent, sympathetic and appreciative, yet as the evening wore on people began to notice that the violinist's glance went always in one direction, and after a time others followed it They saw a plain little woman, plainly dressed, with no marks of wealth or culture. But she was looking at the master with shining eyes, her face wet with tears, unmindful of everything except the magic of his violin. When tbe program was ended, pushing lii' way through the people who woula have detained him, tbe musician went straight to the little shabby figure. "Madame. I congratulate you yoc are ze great artist!" he cried. She looked up at him almost in alarm. "I oh I cannot play a note." she stammered. "I don't know any thins about music. I only lore it." Tbe violinist shook his big shaggy head impatiently. "Is it not what I say? Yon have ze artist soul re artist to listen. What good to play to xe deaf like so Test?" with a disparaging gesture toward the crowded room. "It is to ze one wis ce heart to listen zat we masters play." . Xouti Companion.

One is reminded of the story of the

Iowa senator and the farmer boy. by the meeting ol council on Monday night, when the city fathers talked about the street car situation. The sentor came along on a horse and notic ed a little fellow digging potatoes. Son." said the Senator, "what do you get for digging the potatoes?" "Well," said the boy, "it's nothin' If do and II if I don't." About six weeks ago one of the councilmen declared that the street cars go so slow that one must hold up a pencil to ascertain whether or not the cars move. Monday night Councilman King declared that the street cars go tearing down the street endangering the lives of the pedestrians, and, according to Mr. King, causing the death of an aged woman at the west end of Main street bridge." "The speed limit of street cars is something I wish to talk about," declared Mr. King, introducing the sub ject. The death of that woman on the west side was a good example. The motorman did not have the right control over his car. It's about time we tell 'em to head in. Are we going to run the company or is It going to run us:-' Mayor to the Defense. Mayor Zimmerman came to the de fense of the company with this statement: The accident on the west side was no fault of the street car company. The woman got confused on the track. The cars have to maintain a schedule and certain speed. "Well," said Mr. King In a sarcastic tone, "I've lived in Richmond several years. There are a number of fast drivers including yourself, but you have your machine or your horse under control. The street cars ought to be able to stop in ten or fifteen feet. Don't they have an emergency brake? Wo don't get anything but the cast-off Jim crow cars from Cincinnati and Indianapolis. Haven't we any rights?" "We have not," said the Mayor. It was explained that the west side accident was chiefly due to oil on the car tracks. The brakes failed to work and the car slipped past the corner. It was also stated the brakes on the city care "are no good." Councilman King was informed that the company's fran chise runs for 30 years longer. He said he would live long enough to fight the company then. The speed limit for cars is 12 miles per hour, and viola tion provides a fine of $10 and costs. Location of Fountain. On motion of Councilman Williams the fountain to be donated by the Daughters of the American Revolution will be placed In the South Tenth street park. The D. A. R. society want ed to place it at Eighth and Main street. Another ine example of "nothing If you do and H if you don't," was in the alley cleaning situation. Councilmen have been complaining that the alleys are not kept clean. The board of works got busy and ordered all of them cleaned, giving persons 48 hour notices. Councilman King entered a complaint Monday evening that one of his constituents was ordered to clean up his alley "by a savage, dirty-looking little man." Councilman Evans reported, as he has .been doing for the last two months, the alley between North Seventh and Eighth street, running from; B to C streets. The board suggested that it be made cement and probably a petition for this improvement will be gotten up. Next on the program was a discussion of the sidewalk abutting Eggemeyer's grocery, which Mayor Zimmerman declares he will tear up in making the Improvement of South Fourth street, with cement walks. The Eggemeyers say they will take the matter to court and have retained Attorney J. F. Robbins. In council Mr. Weishaupt said he thought the Eggemeyer walk was the best in town and shouldn't be torn up. The Mayor said it was not the best, and if any body said it was they were not telling the truth. When asked why the city didn't remove the stone side walk in front of the city hall, when cement was placed on Fifth street, the Mayor replied it was better than cement. There was considerable loud talking occasioned in council, when a petition was presented to change the name of North F street, where it runs South of the Pennsylvania railroad, near Twenty-Second street, to Park place. North F is north of the railroad to Nineteenth streeL The street ends there, and is again continued at Twenty-second street, where it reappears on the south side of the railroad. A majority of councilmen spoke in favor of changing the name as desired by the property owners, but Mayor Zimmerman declared that he would veto such an ordinance. He said the next street to E should always be F street. He was stumped and hastily continued the roll call when a councilman remarked that there is a railroad street immediately north of North E.

Piper Legends. Tbe Wends, wbo, we believe, are the ancestors of the modern Prussians, are tbe center of many legends. Tbe Pied Piper of Hnmelin was a Wend; so also was the piper of tbe Bars mountains, who appeared so many days a year and played unearthly tones, and whosoever heard at once fell into a frenzy from which there was no escaping. AJ1 these pled and; weird pipers assembled once a year at the Brocken. where there was a . general carnival, the arch fiend leading the concert on a violin, witches rolling around and fiddling on the , skulls of horses and tbe pipers adding , to the fiendish din the concert of their i
