LEANS BLAOE SOCIAL EVENT FOR DISGRACE Fat Elks Wallop Skinnays During Peltz's Absence Charity Prevents Detailed Account of Slaughter. BY THE EXHAUSTED SCORER. Speaking today of the second crush ing defeat administered to hie team, the Lean Elks, at the hands, bats and brains of the Fat Elks yesterday afternoon at the east end gravel pit, or playgrounds as the field Is officially referred to. Manager Joe Petlx said that the social committee of the club was entirely to blame. "That social committee threw a par ty the night before the came, and all my players attended," Manager Pelts alibied. "If they had gone to bed early Wednesday night they would have been in shape to play. You know my fellows would never have made thirteen errors if they had had a good night's rest. Of course, the Fats at tended the same party, but Manager Eggemeyer doped his players before the game started, something all lovers of our national game should frown upon." Blame Joe Peltz. The players on the Lean team un animously blame Manager Peltz for their downfall 19 to 9 because he was not present to direct their team play. Manager Peltz when Informed of this said it was a good thing he was not present as he probably ould have shot the entire line-up after the third inning. Last June the two teams clashed for the first time, the Fats winning that time by a score of 6 to 3. The game yesterday probably was the worst ex hibition of the national pastime ever witnessed in the United States. The Fats mauled the alleged curves of two Lean pitchers all over the gravel pit and adjacent ragweed patch, comprising the outfield, and the only thrilllnc feature of the contest-was Ray Newman's narrow escape from death when a lofty fly appeared in his territory. By hard sprinting he was able to prevent It droplng on his head. H. Kamp pleased the fans with a bril liant exhibition of base running. Charity forbids a more extended re sort of the proceedings. The Leans feel bad enough without having the public informed of all that took place yesterday afternoon, score: Fats. AB. R. H. P.O. A. E Drlschell, 2b... 6 .1 .3 3 0 Meredith.

Well, the boys are getting somewhat excited over the series of games being arranged for the championship of Wayne and Preble counties and there is a pretty scrimmage promised before the winner crosses the line. Sam Vigran is the latest to be beard from and he relieves himself with the following effusion: Sporting Editor Palladium, Dear Sir: In response to the letter of Mr. Bryson, of the Hagerstown team, which you published yesterday, relative to the championship of Wayne county, the Richmond baseball team is willing at any time to arrange a series of games with any team for the championship, preferrably playing .the teams of Williamsburg, Hagerstown, Greensfork, Cambridge City or any other teams in the county and the New Paris, of Preble county, Ohio, is included. Yours for sport, SAM S. VIGRAN, Mgr. Richmond B. B. T. Now there you are. Sam has thrown down the gauntlet and defies anyone to pick it up. Tonight at the Y. M. C. A., the managers of the different teams interested will gather and a warm session is anticipated. Any team in Wayne or Preble county that has not been mentioned and that thinks it has a chance to win this series, is invited to the meeting tonight, which will be called promptly at 8 o'clock.

DAKCING FANS

HELP PUT PEP IN GALL GAME Music of Band Wooes Sway ing Couples From Grand standUnion Giants Fox Trot to Victory. To the accompaniment of music furnished by the Dayton People's band, the Union Giants of Richmond defeat ed Greenwood yesterday by the score of 9 to 8, before a crowd of three hunared people, in what was perhaps the most amusing nine Innings , of base ball ever seen at Athletic park. While the band waa playing the fans and fanesses, of whom there was a goodly number present, could not keep, their feet 'still, and several Impromptu dancing specialties were given, greatly to the enjoyment of those present. Gaby Delys in her palmy days could never have presented such an exhibition, for the dances witnessed could only be executed by the originators of them. But this Is a baseball yarn, so some mention of the game may be proper. There was plenty of excitement during the nine innings, with the local boys going a little better than their opponents all the way, and while the score was close the Giants appeared to have Greenwodd's number.

Saturday's schedule in the S. A. ItIs an Interesting one and the result of the games will be watched closely. The Vigrans play at Easthaven and the game is an important one. They are tied for first- place with the Natcos and the championship of the league may depend on the result. Natcos and Ad-Hllls get together at Athletic park. At the playgrounds the D. A W. boys will try conclusions with the A, S. M., and it appears as though some base ball history will be made. Last night the S. A. L. officials met and It was decided that the ,last round of the schedule should be cut making the season one of fifteen games instead of twenty. Season Cut Short. The season for the league was declared closed and the future games will be those that have been postponed. These will be played off and if it should happen that the Vigrans and Natcos are tied at the end of the season they will get together and decide which team is the better. The Vigrans have a tie to play off with the Ad-Hill boys and the Natcos have two to play off with the same team. One other game that will be played off will be between Ad-Hill and D. W.. and If the former team should win there will be a tie for third place and another game will have to be ar ranged. The Ad-Hlll boys have the advan tage because they have two postponed games to play with Natco and if they are lucky and win it will not be necessary to nlay any games to decide the winner of third place. REXALLS PLAY BOSTON The Rexalls will play the strong Boston team Sunday at Boston. The Boston team has recently re-organized and is playing good ball. Boston has beaten the State Line team twice this year with Taggart, of the A. S. M., pitching against them. The following Rexall players are asked to report at Sixth and Main streets Sunday, at 12:30 o'clock: McConaha, Moore, McManus, Tate, Butler, Bulla, Rust, Nestor, Clark, Woods and Thornburg. Umpire Clarence Shafer is also re quested to be present. SPRUDELS ARRIVE The West Baden Sprudels arrived in town at 10 o'clock this morning and they sure do look like a husky bunch of youngsters.

LITTLE DEPAIAV STAfl

GAItIS FAKE 111 WEST QREENCASTLE, lad., Aug. 10. When DePauw university opens in September, the athletic stars ot the Methodist school will have their popularity dimmed by a little fellow who entered three yean ago unknown and unsought among the freshman group. Ha was not an athlete in looks, being only fire feet six Inches tall, lean and lank and narrow chested. Today this "little fellow" is probably the greatest athlete DePauw ever produced.- He is Ivan Myers, conference champion In the mile, and winner of third place in the same event in- the athletic games at the. San Francisco exposition this summer in competition with the bset athletes in America. Myers he is known as Ikey here is no more athletic looking than when he entered,; but he has produced the goods on the cinder path. - The . life history of few athletes is more in teresting. Myers was born and rais ed at Carmel, Ind., though his parents now live at Garrett. While in high school Myers was interested in ath letics, but was not accounted a star even in his own high school. His favorite event was the quarter mile, but on account of illness during his senior year he never even got an op portunity to show his speed in the state. For that reason he was not sought by the colleges of the state. Not until in an inter-organization track meet near the close of his fresh man year was Myers known to the coaches. Competing with the star men of the varsity, he outdistanced them all and brought himself into no tice as an athlete worth watching. OFFICIALS ANNOUNCED . The officials at tomorrow after noon's S. A. L. games have been an nounced by George Brehm. Shaw will score at Athletic park and Meyers will umpire. At East Haven Diddlebock will hold the book and Brooks will officiate be hind the plate. McMinn will look after the points at the Playgrounds and Peck will hold the indicator. A billion tons of coal are consumed annually throughout the world in industry and in the homes.

Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys.
