BROWN, PITCHED IN HIS OLD TIME FORM

(National New Association) CINCINNATI, O., Aug. 6. Cincinnati, by bunching hits, won the third straight game from Boston yesterday, i 5 to 1. Boston could do nothing with Brown, who pitched in old-time form, not allowing more than one hit in any inning. Perdue who started the game for Boston, was touched up for a single and two three-baggers in the first inning, which scored two runs. He was hit for a three-base hit in the fourth and eventually scored, and in the seventh was relieved to allow McDonald to bat for him. Strand, who relieved Perdue, was not only hit hard, but was wild. Umpire Riger called Rariden out in the fourth inning while the latter was batting, claiming that he interfered with Clark's throw to catch Mann at second base. Manager Tinker, in the eighth inning, after reaching second base, stole third and then home, scoring the final run of the game.

o! the Day

PASS THROUGH CITY Fourteen Premier automoailes, carrying Chicago tourists on a 1,500-mile J vacation trip, passed through Rich mond this morning and attracted much (attention. The tour is probably the i first of its kind ever taken. All the j expenses of the trip are paid from a common treasury. The party stopped Tuesday night at the Claypool hotel, Indianapolis, and from here went to Columbus via Dayton and Springfield. They will visit Cleveland, Geneva, Erie, Pa., Buffalo and Niagara Falls, besides other places of interest in the east and in Canada. The autos are numbered, and each has its individual place in the tour. ! SPORTING NOTES ! PITTSFIELD, Mass., Aug. 6. William I. Smith, of the Pittsfield Eastern Association baseball club, who took his injured arm out of splints the day before, pitched a no-hit game against Waterbury, yesterday, shutting them out 3 to 0. Smith issued no passes and struck out six men. Only three Waterbury players saw first base, all on errors. BOSTON, Aug. 6. A rumor was industriously circulated in local baseball circles today to the effect that Jake Stahl, former manager of the Red Sox, is scheduled to succeed Jimmy Callahan as manager of the Chicago White Sox at the close of the present year. Stahl has been spending the summer since his dismissal at Annisquam, but could not be reached there today. Some of Stahl's close personal friends are inclined to ridicule the idea that Stahl will return to baseball. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Aug. 6. President J. L. Lillis of the Jersey City club of the International league, has made a futile effort to secure from President Frank Calloway of the Atlanta Southern league club first baseman Joe Agler. Lillis offered Borton, the former White Sox just secured from the Yankees and another player. The magnates met here by appointment. MIDGETS VICTORS The Playground Midgets defeated the Whitewater Seconds in a 9 to 8 game at the playgrounds yesterday afternoon. Watt, Fossenkemper, Wynn and Costulusa played the best ball for their teams. Score: R.II.E Midgets 9 8 6 Whitewater 8 69 Batteries Midgets, Brinly and B. Rost; Whitewater, Wynn and Costu -lust. FRANK JONES NOT ZIMMERMAN RIVAL 'The story published yesterday in a local newspaper that I intended to be a candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor is not true." stated Frank M. Jones today. Mr. Jones was elected a member of conucil from the sixth ward Saturday night to succeed the late HarFy Kauffman. "I would not have the office of mayor if I could get it," he added. "But I am a candidate for the Republican nomination for councilman from the sixth ward." CONTRACTORS FAIL " TO PLACE LIGHTS Charges may be filed against the contracting firm of Sisk, Sprinkle and Level, who are engaged in bricking North and South Eighth street for fail- ; ing to place red lights at intervals along the improvement. Prosecuting Attorney Reller stated this morning that there have been several accidents, none of which resulted seriously, as a result of the company's failure to obey the law. Last night a horse was driven against a large wire which the employes of the company had placed across Eighth and North C streets to block the streets The place was dark and the driver knew nothing of the wire nor the condition of the street. The horse was only scratched. The contractors have disregarded the notices to place red lights along the street and will be called befoul the board of works tomorrow to explain this neglect. Should they then fail to obey the notices, affidavits will be filed against them. CHANGE IN STOVE SPUDS NECESSARY With the change from artificial gas to natural gas, there will be some changes in the gas stoves and ranges, according to J. B. Wharton of the Light, Heat and Power company. In some cases there will be an expense attached but the light company will make arrangements to install the necessary changes where certain kind of burner is in the stove. The change is made where the gas enters the burner. A small orifice called a spud, will be necessary in place of the larger spuds which are used for artificial gas. The spuds do not cost more than a few cents and the gas company may make arrangements to. make the changes free wherever possible.

POLICE BOARD TO

DEMAND INCREASE IN PRESENT FORCE iOne Member of Board De clares City Is 25 Years Behind the Times. (Continued from Pase One.) money which we thought we should ask for. In this outline was included a sum which we would use to purchase an automobile. And the machine we buy for the police depart- ! ment will be made right here in Richmond." j While Police Commissioner James i Fry does not believe that the board j should recommend that the city put on the full number of men allowed by law, he says that the force should be increased and better equipped. Commissioner E. R. Stover, it is understood, holds the same view on this matter as do the other commissioners. All are in favor of purchasing an automobile for the department. Holds Same Views. When asked his opinion on the matter. Chief Gormon declared that he would not agitate an increase in the i force. He said that he would merely state his views to the commissioners at the September meeting. "That we need a larger force there is no doubt," said the chief. "We are doing the best possible with our present equipment. I will not urge the commissioners to take this matter up. I will merely recommend to them that they ask the city officials to increase the force and give us better equipment. I believe an automobile should be purchased, but we do not need to spend an elegant sum on it." F EMENT TOPIC DISCUSSED Young Englishwoman Interests Church People At a Meeting Here. The Society of Friends held a reception last night at the North A Street meeting house, at which Miss Mary Fox of London, England and Miss Hetty Fitzsimmons were the guests of honor. Miss Fox and Miss Fitzsimmons, both of whom are in this country i studying the Young Friends' Movej ment, talked on the work being done by the Young Friends in their respective countries. They said that in other places, as in the United States, this extension movement had grown up spontaneously, because the younger people had felt the need of it. Fellowship is the thing which, they said, was emphasized by all the societies in the Young Friends' movement. That the fellowship might be closer and more free the machinery of a complex organization has been dispensed with. In addition to the talks by Miss Fox dnd Miss Fitzsimmons, other phases of the movement were discussed by Miss Edith Winder, of this city, Mis Elizabeth Morris, Vincent Nicholson, Miss Lillian Hayes and Miss Anna Lewis, of Chicago. Previous to the program which was held in the church, luncheon was served on the lawn. STANDING IN LINE When the reservations for camp sites at the Chautauqua grounds were opened to new campers this morning at 6:30 o'clock, a number of persons were standing in line. By 11 o'clock forty reservations had been made. Ed Shera stated that fifty per cent more old campers had returned this year than ever before, and that no more lots and tents would be leased until the exact number contracted for could be determined as practically all the lots have been signed for. MARSHALL IS LUCKY (National News Association) WASHINGTON', Aug. 6. His love for baseball today saved Vice President Marshall forty dollars. By means of the engraved season pass issued to Mr. Marshall for admission to the American league park, a negro janitor, while dusting the senate chamber, identified the vice president's wallet, which the latter had lost last evening. Besides the baseball nass four crisD ten dollar bills were in the wallet. The vice president rewarded the janitor by a present of a five dollar bill.

MANY ORDINANCES GO TOJCRAP HEAP Some City Officials Now Want the City Laws Revised.

No printed record of the city ordinances has been made since 1896, according to Prosecuting Attorney Reller. Of the ordinances made in the last seventeen years, there are a few typowritten copies in existence, these boing the city department offices. Until a month ago these were not iudexed. The members of the board of works may take up later the classifying and revision of the city laws. Most of those in the volume issued in 1896 have either been repealed or are ready for the "scrap heap," the officials say. The work of going over the ordinances would take several months and would be a difficult and tiresome job. The board members have discussed th:s work several times with the city attorney, whose duty it would be to oversee the revising, but. as yet, have taken no forma! action. The work of indexing the ordinances passed since 1896 was done by City Attorney Bond and this alone required several weeks. E REPLIES SLOW As to Exhibits At Industrial Show. ! The industrial and mercantile com-. mittees of the Fall Festival met yesterday and discussed plans for the ! "Made in Richmond" exhibit and for the industrial parade. Chairman Jen kins of the committee on the "Made in Richmond" exhibit stated that about thirty firms had replied to his circular letters, and had expressed their intention to display their products. Several other companies have shown an interest in the movement by making inquiries about space, arrangement and power. According to Mr. Jenkins, it is necessary that replies be received within the next few days. Every manufacturer that has not been heard from is just delaying the work that mlch, as the committee expects to call on each one personally. Horse and Hog Shows. Omer G. Whelan, of the live stock committee, met with members of the executive committee yesterday and discussed plans for the horse and hog shows. He is revising the premium list, and rearranging the classifications. The work will be completed in a few days.
