TO MEET GRAYS HERE SUNDAY Championship of Eastern Indiana Will Be Decided Then. NEWCASTLE NOW OUT The championship of Eastern Indiana will be decided in the baseball game to be played between Cambridge City and Richmond next Sunday at Athletic park. Each team confidently expect to win. Last Sunday the championship laid between Newcastle, Cambridge City and Richmond, but with the defeat of the former team by Cambridge City, Newcastle was eliminated. Both Richmond and Cambridge City have lost one and won one from each other, and each has lost one and won two from Newcastle. Fans, it is expected will see an unusually interesting game. The manager of the West Baden Sprudels declares that Richmond has the fastest of any semi-professional team played by the Sprudels in Indiana. The Sprudels have played Muncie, Kokomo, French Lick Plutos, Alexandria, the A. B. C.s of Indianapolis, Washington, Princeton and V'incennes.

The aprudels got two hits off Suggs, and the Reds got five hits off Taylor. The Richmond team is negotiating for a series of games with the Sprudels this fall. It will consist of six or seven games played here and at .West Baden. LIBERTY DROPS AN OVERTIME GAME (Palladium Special.) LIBERTY, Ind., July 15.

The hitting of Murray and Marsans and the fielding of Groh featured the game. ELI CATES IN TOWN Eli Cates, erstwhile blg-leaguer, was in the city last evening. Eli is now playing third base for the Indianapolis team in the Federal league. His team has been leading the parade in that organization, but of course Eli does not take any of the credit for himself, but judging by the way his is clouting the horsehide some of it may be attributed to him. It is said by those who have seen him action, that he is playing the game of his life, and that it will not be a great while until he is back in the big show. Eli was always was a favorite in Richmond. He went to Greensfork today to visit his family, as this was an oil day in the schedule for his team.

Lynch has made the followin gstatement: "The umpiring in the National League this season has been as good, if not better than at any time in the last four years. I am satisfied with the ability, integrity and personal character of the members of my umpire staff and I want to go on record positively as saying that not one of these men is going to be made the scapegoat for the fancied grievances, headless actions or poor playing of any ball club. "The time and money it has taken to build up this staff is not going to be nullified by the absolutely unjustified criticisms of several disappointed club owners. I am especially well pleased with the work of young Mr. Quigley. He has the ability and temperament and with a little more major league experience I feel confident he will develop into a high class official. "In case that my position has been misunderstood in an quarter I wish to state again and finally that unless illness or a violation of instructions makes it necessary there will be no change this season in the personnel of the present umpire staff." WINNIPEG, Man., July 5. Geo. Walker, champion middleweight wrestler today was matched to meet Walter Miller of Duluth, American champion, before a local club on July 31. CLEVELAND, O., July 15.

HOT LINERS OFF THE BAT ! After losing ten straight games the Brooklyn Dodgers finally broke their losing streak by beating the Cubs to the tune of 9 to 2. After winning eight games, the Pirates finally went down to defeat at the hands of the Boston Braves, and this despite the fact that Hans Wagner was shoved in as a pinch hitter. This is pennant raising day at the Polo grounds, and a big crowd of baseball moguls flocked to New York to take part or look on. Among them is Garry Herrmann, whose Cincinnati Reds play the Giants this afternoon. Ebbetts Field, home of the Dodgers, in Brooklyn, is to be dedicated this afternoon. The fact that it is pennant raising day at the Polo grounds kept some notables away from Ebbetts field who otherwise would have been there. However, among those who went to Brooklyn to take part were C. W. Murphy, owner ci the Cubs; F. J. Navin of the Tigers; President C. W. Somers of the Cleveland Naps; President B. F. Shibe of the Athletics, and James E. Gaffney of the Boston Nationals. In the game between the Phillies and the Cardinals not a Quaker was left on bases. It was one of the best pitched games seen in Philadelphia this year. Leftie Liefield, one a pitcher for the Pirates, and who was sold to the Cubs last fall, has been shunted to the minors. He goes to Atlanta. Catcher Grover Land of the Naps has been released to the Toledo club. The Senators had to use three pitchers to beat the Naps.

The country now called Kentucky was well known to the Indian traders many years before its settlement. It. however, remained unexplored by the Virginians till the year 1769, when Coloael Daniel Boone and a few others, who conceived it to be an interesting object, undertook a journey for that purpose. After a long, fatiguing march over a mountain wilderness in a westerly direction they at length arrived upon its borders and from the top of an eminence "saw with pleasure the bautiful level of Kentucko."
