CON NERSVILLE
FAILS IB COME BACK AT HOME
iVordenburg's Tight Pitching and Circuit Clout Help ; Humble Grays in Third Game of Series. ,' Richmond won again, 5 to 3. With Vordenburg allowing only two hits and contributing a home run with two men on bases to aid his team mates in the scoring end of the game, the Connersville Grays never had a chance to come back yesterday, even though playing on the nome lot. Sunday's victory makes Richmond the winner of two out of three in the series of five. After winning the first game at Connersville, the Grays journeyed to Richmond to receive an overwhelming defeat. This they intended to pay back in kind when Kenney led his team to Connersville yesterday. But they made their plans without reckoning with Earl Vordenburg and eight other Quakers. Allows Three Passes. With the exception of the fourth inning Vordenburg sailed along in excellent style. All that prevented the game from being a shutout was a nearascension in the fourth when he passed three men. Although Schlemker did not play his usual game, his failing was covered up by the work of his running mate, Cushing, who covered more ground than usual and batted with a certain eye. In the second Dahl singled, Lenninger sacrificed, Schlemker was out, lleisman to Ruckstuhl; Cushing knocking out a hot liner and Vordenburg poled a homer scoring three runs. They made one again in the eeventh when Cushing singled and was advanced to third on another single by Vordenburg. He scored on an out which Vordenburg made trying to eteal second. Another one came in the eighth when Merkle fanned, No-
vac smashed one for two bases and Popkins sacrificed and Novy scored on
a line smash by Dahl. Connersville.

OHIO TEAM TAKES
SENATORS, PADDING LIST OF VICTORIES
Effective Work of Roop En
ables New Paris to Keep Record of Twenty Games Won. New Paris defeated the Richmond
Senators Sunday afternoon at Ath
letic park by the score of 5 to 2. This is the twentieth victory for New Paris this summer out of twenty-two games played. The victory was due to a large ex
tent to the effective pitching of Carl
Roop. As usual, he had the batters
at his mercy, and although allowing six hits he scattered them so they could not count. The Senators made one run in the first inning and one
in the last.
For a while it looked as if the game
belonged to the locals, for New Paris did not make their runs until the
eighth inning. They were enabled to
run in five at this time, and Hawekotte was relieved on the mound by
Wilcoxen. He managed to stop the onslaught of the Ohio men, but the
victory had been won. In the last
inning it looked as ir Kicnmona intended to come back, but Roop tightened up so that they made only one run in the inning. Score

handles, 9 to 0, in Only Game Played. Rain prevented all but one of the Bcheduled Saturday Afternoon league games. The diamond at Easthaven was dry enough for the Panhandles and the Easthaven teams to play. The Railroaders were defeated by the score Df 9 to 0. The game was loosely played. Errors were frequent and base running was especially difficult. The hospital men had it their own way throughout the game, however, and by virtue of
their victory they become the undisputed holders of first place in the league standing. Before Saturday's game Easthaven and the A. S. M. teams were tied for first. Arrangements will be made at the meeting of the league directors this evening for the postponed games. It is probable that they will be played off in the form of double headers. The railroaders secured but four hits off Dooley, the Easthaven pitcher, Saturday afternoon. Eleven hits were marked up against the pitching of Hiatt. The Panhandles made five errors and Easthaven made two. Batteries: Dooley and Gwynn; Hiatt and Snavely.
RESERVES DEFEAT ALL-STAR TEAM The Fairvlew Reserves defeated the AU-Stars Sunday afternoon at Ratliff's park by the score of 5 to 4. The game was close.

Tourney.
NEW PARIS, O., Aug. 31. Arrange
ments are almost completed for the
big tournament of the Interstate Roque Association, which will be held on the New Paris, Ohio courts, the week beginning Sept. 7. There are
nine clubs in the Interstate Associa
tionColumbus, Ind., Eldorado, Ohio,
Williamsburg Ind., Chicago, Ills. Mil
ton, Ind., West Alexandria, Ohio, Parker City, Ind., Campbellstown,
Ohio, and New Paris, Ohio. The com
mittee on arrangements consists of
George Reid Campbellstown; John
Kramer, West Alexandria; Chauncey
Shewman, Eldorado; O. W. Kerlin Milton; E. D. Davis, Parker City; C
C. King, Chicago; M. T. Reeves, Co
lumbus; E. E. Bevington and M. H
Pence, New Paris, and Leander An
derson. Williamsburg. W. L. Hahn
and L. C. Ashman, New Paris, are re spectively president and secretary-
treasurer of the Interstate Associa
tion.
New Paris has the finest ground
in the United States, having five
splendid courts, four of which were
newly constructed this summer. They
all have heavy cement borders are well lighted by electricity, are well
drained and well-sanded, have plenty
of seats for resting players and spec
tators. At the coming tournament
there are three medals to be played
for, one $50.00 gold medal donated by C. C. King of Chicago, champion roque player of the United States one medal donated by the venerable Leander Anderson of Williamsburg, and another silver medal given by a local player. Mr. King will be present at the tournament and some exciting games are looked for since he has been champion for a number of years. Roque is croquet played by rules laid down by certain associations, and among some of the changes noted is that of the wickets and balls, they being much smaller than the usual croquet outfits. The roque wickets are 3 inches between the uprights and the balls are 34 inches in diameter, leaving but one-eighth inch play for the ball. The games are limited to one and a half hours and all per cents are based on a perfect score of 32 points which represents 1000. The games commence as early as seven o'clock and last until midnight and much interest is manifested in the sport by local players and roquje fans. A large crowd of foreign players is expected to be present and take part in the tournament, which is the biggest thins of its kind ever attempted.

RELIGION INCLUDES MORE THAN RITUAL SAYS GLENN FRANK Lecturer Declares Real Christianity Consists of Doing All Things of Life a Special Way. Running away from the world in order to be good is bad policy for a true Christian, stated Glenn Frank of New York in his sermon-lecture Sunday morning at the Chautauqua. He advised his hearers to mix with the world, and by doing so become stronger for the work of life. Although but a young man, Mr. Frank's writing and lectures have attracted great attention in this country, and his talk yesterday was one of the most forceful addresses that has been heard from the Chautauqua platform this year. He is an exponent of modernism as it is voiced in the intellectual and industrial life of the country. He showed that he had a great sympathy for mankind. "Religion is not doing a lot of special things but consists in doing all things in life in a special sort of way," he emphasized. "Praying and going to church do not necessarily consti
tute devotion, but are merely aids to
aevoiion. nengion is Droaaer tnan any ritual; it includes doing good every day of the week and just not on Sunday. Do not let the instruments of
religion take the place of religion itself. Men should invest the operations of secular life with things sacred. Running away from the world in order to be good is neither sane nor Christian and produces a negative morality. "If man only lives for the afterwhile he is incompletely religious. He should try to bring heaven on earth. It is more important for man to be sure of what he is here and now than what he is going to be. The 'tomorrow' will take care of itself," he continued. "Men should have positive goodness and should not merely be good because they aren't bad." "The good man in the community is
i one that snenris his timp in ilninc
cupant. There is a rumor abroad that good; avoidance of the bad is onlv a

FRED SNODGRASS. McGraw in an effort to strengthen the Giants' line-up in the hope of improving the team, has slated Fred Snodgrass for Bescher's place in left field. Snodgrass will be replaced on
first base by FVed Merkle, the old oc-
Arthur Chappell, the king of American motorcycle racers, who is the latest of the sporting "comebacks." He has had nearly every bone in his body broken in racing accidents and announced after a particularly serious one last year that he was through with the racing game. He's back at the game again, though says he simply couldn't keep away.
McGraw intends letting Bescher out
The manager is displeased with the ex-Red's showing on account of his individuality, in spite of the fact that his hitting continues good. Bescher will probably occupy the bench for the remainder of the season.
OWNER AT THEATRE LOSES AUTOMOBILE
Joy riders took a Ford automobile from Main street in front of the Murray theatre Saturday night while the owner, John Hostetter, a resident of the Henley road, was inside. Of a number of automobiles, Hostetter's machine was the only one disturbed. The police have been unable to locate it. It is believed that the machine was abandoned somewhere in Richmond and that a report will be made on it
by-product in his enthusiasm for do
ing good," he said.

Local millers and dealers reported the first deliveries of new clover seed today. Clover hullers are in operation in different parts of the county, and
with favorable weather, the crop will be all harvested in the next three weeks. The new seed is of excellent quality, and comparatively free from weed seed. The price which local dealers offer ranges from $8.50 to $9.00 per bushel. Most of the seed is of the Big English variety, and the Little Red crop is reported as being short, on account of thin stands, although the farmers say the heads are well filled. No Alsike has been offered on the local mar

what you would you just couldn't get
the desired result! Next time your face becomes unruly, exhibiting a careworn and saggy appearance, and criss-crossed with fine lines, here's something that will quickly transform it into one of youthful freshness. Just get an ounce of powdered saxolite at your druggist's, mix this with about a half pint of witch hazel, and bathe your face in the solution for two or three minutes. Immediately after you feel a "firming up" of the skin and underlying tissue, which naturally irons out the little wrinkles, worry marks and flabbiness. The contour and general appearance of your face are so improved, you will be glad you heard of this simple and harmless method. (Advertisement)
