G STREAKS !N F0nSEHAT0RS Newcastle Eagles' Lodge Team Plays a Loose Game Here. KELLY'S FEATURE HIT Senators, 9; Newcastle, 2. Errors and loose playing on the part Of the Newcastle Eagles' lodge team lost her the baseball game to the Richmond Senators by the decided score of 9 to 2, at Athletic park Sunday afternoon. Richmond scored four of her runs in the first inning, and had another streak in the seventh which netted four more. One run was made In the third inning. The game was featureless, except for a three-base hit made by Kelly, Richmond's second baseman, in the seventh inning. He was followed by Holmes, who drove out a two-base hit, and on a fumble got to third, while Kelly scored. Two more runs were made after Holmes came in. Newcastle's fielding and batting were poor in the first four innings of the game. Wild throwing was generally the rule, and Richmond had the advantage. In the fifth inning Newcastle closed up, however, and the game became more interesting. Newcastle fans eveji had hopes that she would run up her score to equal Richmond's, but though the fielding was better, the batting remained about the same throughout the game. Scored on Errors. Newcastle scored her first run in the third when an error put her batter on first base. He stole second and was assisted to third by a sacrifice, and pilfered home. As many fans had accompanied Richmond's first team to Cambridge City Sunday, the number of spectators was small. A boisterous crowd of rooters for both teams, however, kept things from becoming monotonous. Following is the line-up: Senators Kelly, 2b; Holmes, lb; Cliffer, p; C. Schweitzer, ss; A. Schweitzer, 3b; H. Schweitzer, rf; Ireland, If; Sullivan, c; Conners, cf. Eagles' Lodge Adams, c; Meeks, p; Kline, lb; Appleton, 2b; Harlan, 88 ; Moore, 3b; O'Neal, cf; Campbell, If; Pdunter, rf. Fisher, umpire. NEWCASTLE TRIMS THE LOCAL OUTFIT Richmond Defeated Ten to Nothing Locals Only Made One Hit. NEWCASTLE 10, RICHMOND 0. How did it happen? Nobody knows, Hot even the Richmond team men, but they were ignominiously defeated by that score of 10 to 0 by the Newcastle Hoosiers Sunday afternoon at Newcastle before a crowd of 0 people. Romine, Newcastle's hurler, pitched a wonderful game and allowed Richmond only one hit in the nine innings. This was when Merkel scored a neat three-base drive in the seven innings. Not a Richmond player reached first base until the seventh inning. Before Merkel could make home, however, the third out was tallied against the team. Richmond's fielding was the worst perpetrated 'this season. Errors were made with a frequency which was disgusting. Walters and Wilcoxen were wil din their pitching and the balls which were put over the plate were driven into the field with monotonous regularity. Start Scoring Early. Newcastle scored four runs in the first inning and obtained them on two bases on tails, two hits, one error and "boneheaded" baseball playing. Two runs were made In the fifth inning, one in the sixth and three in the seventh. Smith, outfielder for Newcastle, made a home run when he knocked the ball over the fence and Romine landed a three base hit. Richmond simply had an off day and Secretary Husson in explanation says any amateur team of this city could have defeated them. "The team offers no apology," he said. "The whole bunch was off and couldn't do a thing. "We would have been defeated by any team. The umpire's ruling was not satisfactory, either to Newcastle or Richmond and had he been better, Richmond would have been beaten just the same but not by the same score. Richmond played Newcastle yesterday when she had the weakest lineup of the season."

Arthur r'elky, who claims the white heavyweight championship of the world, and Tommy Burns, his manager who admits that he once held that title, ar"ived here from San Francisco last aight to fulfill a theatrical engage ment at a local playhouse. In all probability Pelky will be matched by Promoter Tom McCarey with motorman Charlie Miller of San Francisco for an early fall date before leaving here. The preliminary arrangements already have been made, and apparently, all that remains to close the match is the signing of the articles or agreement. Johnny Dundee and Jack White went through impressive workouts yesterday afternoon at their respective ramps, big crowds being present at both places. The fans are taking unusual interest in this match, which is scheduled to take place at McCarey's Vernon arena on the night of August 12, as both boys appear to be in the best of shape and promise to put on a high class exhibition. Jess Willard, who says he will pester Arthur Pelky until he lands a match with him, went five rounds at the Doyle camp after Dundee was through, going three with Bert Fagan and two with Jerry Deacon. His work was exceptionally good for a man just starting on a training siege. Willie Ritchie is to announce today where he will box no aLbor day. The probability is that the champion will meet Harlem Tommy Murphy in San Francisco on that date. NEW YORK, Aug. 4. President Lynch of the National league, in a decision holds that the result of the protested Brooklyn-Cincinnati game of July 11, which Cincinnati won, 50 to 3, stands as played. SOUTH BEND, Ind., Aug. 4. "Bubbles" Hargrove, the 20-year-old catcher of the Terre Haute Central League team, probably will go to Pittsburg in the National League at the close of the present season. The Pirates' management is now dickering with the management for the purchase of the big backstop, and it is understood has offered $2,500 for him. EVANSVILLE. Ind., Aug. 4. Frank Hoe yesterday bested Kid Turner of this city in a. six-round bout at McLean, Ky. 1 HOT LINERS OFF THE BAT ! Another crucial series will start today. The Naps and Athletics begin the first of four games, and Birmingham's men, trailing the leaders six and one-half games, will try to reduce the lead. The last time the Naps visited Quakertown, the margin was even less, but the Athletics took three out of four. The Naps, however are playing better ball than the Athletics at the present time. Two doubles, four triples and four circuit clouts and twenty singles, marked the swatfest between the Cubs and the Dodgers. The former bunched their hits at the right time, and Brooklyn was on the short tide of the score again. The Phillies kept up their winning streak, bunching enough hits in the first three innings to grab the opener from St. Louis. The Reds took the Bostons into camp. Dickson pitched winning ball until the seventh, when he weakened and Tinker's men romped1 home.

Kaufman filed suit in the Wayne circuit court this morning against Carl R. Kaufman. The plaintiff also demands alimony and the restoration of her maiden name, Mrs. Ada K. Sorber. She stated that they were married on December 8, 1909, and that the defendant left her July 15, 1910. Kaufman tried to get a divorce last v. inter but it was so strongly opposed by Mrs. Kaufman that his attorneys withdrew the suit after considerable evidence had been introduced. Kaufman alleged desertion as does his wife in this suit. She left him, going to her mother's home after she thought she was being neglected by him. The couple lived in East Germantown. She said she did not get and angel food on one occasion wheji her husband was invited to his parents home for dinner. Kaufman said at that time he would never live with his wife again. SERVED A FINE DINNER. The Prince Enjoyed It, and the Fam. ibhed Guests Politely Smiled. Prince Leopold, the late regent of Bavaria, was extremely hospitable, receiving many guests and keeping open house, to which came in turn officers, scientists, artists, manufacturers all the best society in Munich. Himself the wlelder of an excellent knife and fork, he took the pleasures of the table seriously and desired that all his guests should do the same. Some weeks before his last illness he fell asleep at a dinner party immediately after the first course. His guests were restrained by respect for etiquette from waking him, but continued their conversation in low tones. The servants did not dare to continue serving the dinner. The prince continued to sleep and soon began to snore. The guests continued their conversation in somewhat louder tones, but the prince slept for two hours, during which time no one left his place. The guests sat famished in the same room with a marvelously appointed dinner. At length Prince Leopold awoke. He gave a hurried glance round the table and saw only a number of well mannered guests successfully pretending to have noticed nothing. Persuaded that his doze had passed completely unobserved, he said, "Now let us go and take coffee." The guests rose accordingly and proceeded to the drawing room. They were served with coffee, liqueurs and cigars. The prince, thoroughly refreshed by his sleep. Indulged in a great deal of excellent conversation which lasted till midnight The party then broke up, and the gruests departed, famished with hunger, with an 1& ci&l smile upon their lips.

go on. Her mother consented and anyway they won't let her stay at' home and she has to work for a living, so it don't make any duference to any one except us." Clemma had secured a new suitcase for her trousseau and was arrayed in her "Sunday dress" for the occasion. She was unable to talk to the authorities as the unsuccessful attempt to elope completely unnerved her. Her mot her was notified and has promised to come here tonight, and take Clemma back home where the girl says she will be glad to stay. Hecathorn was released today and returned to his work at Streeter. He vowed that he would yet win the girl and if the marriage cannot be consummated, peaceably, there will undoubtedly be trouble ahead for seme one, according to his statement this morning. EYES OF NEEDLES. Why They Never Rut Nor Cut the Very Finest, Softest Thread. Millions of needles are sold daily. It was not so long ago when the thread in tjie needle was cut by the sharp edges lert in tne eye arier inanuracture. The smaller the needle the sharper the edge and the greater the annoyance to users. Then, again, the eye would rust, for a woman will dampen the end of the thread on her tongue In order to make a ioint so that the needle may be threaded more easily. Complaint was loud and long, and orders were parsed down the line to produce an eye in the smallest needle that could not cut the finest and softest thread in the world. This was done by inventing a new machine in the shape of die cutters for the making of the eyes. The points on these minute augers are so small that they cannot be seen with the naked eye or detected by the most delicate sense of touch. A microscope is necessary. So it was essential to Invent new machines to manufacture the dies and to sharpen the tiny drills. Polishers and burnishers had to be made that would finish off every rough edge in an instant almost because needles sell a dozen or so for a few cents. When tills was done the needles were placed in a rack, through which the eyes projected and held so tightly thai when immersed in water only the eye were covered. In this way the heads of the needles became the negative pole of a powerful battery, and in a few moments the eyes of several million needles were gold plated and hence rendered rust proof. Harper's, DAMP, DARK DAYS. And Thair Depressing Effects Upon the Human System. Next time It is a dark, dreary day and you are sure that you have soine really terrible ailmeut don't worry. Just cheer up and realize that there is nothing the matter with you except that the weather is damp, and the first sunny day will be sure to set you right. At least this is the opinion 'of Dr. Raukin, London physician, who has been giving lectures on the subject of health and happiness. He attributes most of the ordinary woes of humanity to the damp weather and explains his theory scientifically. "In damp weather," he says, "the skin does not perform its functions properly. Products which should be thrown off in perspiration remain and clog the skin. Under ordinary circum stances in a normal temperature the amount of vapor passing from the skin reaches thirty ounces per day. In moist air the amount passing out from the skin is reduced to seven or eight ounces. "As perspiration contains poisonous properties, it is not surprising that during damp weather these poisouous properties which are retained in the body lower the vitality and produce various temporary ailments." So it's really a comfort to know that when we do not feel "well" in damp weather it is no sign of constitutional 111 health, bnt Just the weather. San Francisco Chronicle. BOTTLE BROKERS. A Curious Branch of the Fiery Vodka Traffic In Russia. Since the edict of June 6. 1804. the production and sale of vodka, that fiery drink in which most Russians delight, have been controlled by the government Of the 50,000 places engaged in the vodka traffic In European Russia more than one-half are conducted by ' the state under the direct supervision of the ministry of finance. Most of the employees in the governi ment vodka shops are widows and orphans of deceased officials of the state. These shops are conducted in an orderly manner, and no drinking is permitted on the premises. The fact that a charge ranging from 1 cent to 9 cents is made for the bottle in which the vodka is soid has given rise to a strange business. Bottle brokers, as they are called, haunt the neighborhood of the vodka shops, watching for some- thirsty person who needs the loan of one or two kopecks (a half a cent or a cent) with which to make the purchase of a bottle of the desired everagePerhaps the buyer has but six kopecks and he requires eight to get a bottle of vodka. The "broker lends him the two kopecks to make up the desired amount, and, after the receptacle has been drained under the vigilant eye of the broker, the bottle Is turned over to him. He takes it back to the shop and sells it for three kopecks, thus making a profit of one kopec k. In Moscow and St. Petersburg hundreds of men are earning a living at this strange trade. Harper Weakly. More than two million grass hats were exported to the United States f from the West Indies during the third
quarter of 1912.

SENATE DEFEATED NICARAGUAN PLAN (National NVws Association) WASHINGTON. August 4. Defeat of the administration plan in connec tion with Nicaragua when the plan was broached to the senate foreign relations committee on Saturday, has not changed President Wilson's view tn connection with the main provisions, according to a statement issued by Secretary Bryan today. "The president has not changed his views as to the main provisions of the treaty" stated Mr. Bryan. "Although the matter cannot be considered again at once, he will call the attention of the committee tb the treaty later. Currency questions and other matters prevent any immediate action and further consideration of the treaty with Nicaragua and other Important matters will be deferred until the regular session." stated Secretary Bryan. MEXICAN brigands: Pleasant Sort of People That Merely Robbed Travelers. I was once for some weeks at a sugar plantation, near a small provincial town la Mexico." wrote the late Mr. Labouchere In 1879. "In the town lived a brigand. lie was highly esteemed by his neighbors, and I passed many a pleasant evening with nlm and Lis family. Ills daughter was a 'beanty.' and this estimable parent was amassing a little fortune for her. "His habit was to ride at night to the road between Mexico and Vera Cruz with two or three associates and to levy contributions on the diligence. When I left the town I wanted to strike this road, and I went with hint ate bis friends. We reached it at about 6 In the morning. Having partaken of chocolate, the brigands posted themselves behind some rock, and I looked on. Soon the diligence was seen approaching. The brigands emerged, the coachman stopped, the passengers were requested to descend and were politely eased of their money. "The passengers then took their places again In the coach, and It drove off. while the brigands courteously bowed to them. So honest were they In their peculiar way that they wished me to take my share In the spoil, but this, of course, my standard of morality being different from theirs. I declined, and I wi'ibed them goodby. "Riding on to Pencla 1 dined at ft table d'hote that evening with the despoiled travelers and was greatly amused to bear them recount the valorous manner In which they had defended themselves and bow tbey at last bad to succumb to numbers."
