"AS YOU WERE," SAY GIANTS TO ASPIRING REDS

Cincinnati Pennant Hopes Set Back in Two Games by New York Team. NEW YORK, Aug. IS. Wednesday's flying start was lost In the second double header of the Giant-Red series at the Polo grounds yesterday after noon, and McGraw's warriors were returned with two victories, the first of which went 14 innings. Jimmie Ring, the Red hurler, offered a very clever exhibition of the Nation al pastime, and would have won the contest, had it not been for a muff in the fifth round by Ivy Wingo, who dropped the ball at the plate and allowed Kauff to score the run that tied up. the count and forced the game Into five extra rounds. Except for this one bobble, the Reds' support was airtight as was Ring. A single by Daubert and a long triple by Roush in the sixth gave the Reds their only count. Roush took the hitting honors in the first contest, with 4 hits. His team mates, however, were unable to connect. Second Qame One-Sided Rube Bressler proved that he was a better man in the outfield than in the box the second game, and after the Giants had made two runs he was benched and Luque given the Job. L,uque lasted little longer,' however, and Eddie Oerner finished the Job. With all of the first string pitchers of the Giants listed tn the box scores of the first two days, McGraw's choice for the box in Friday's game appears to be rather doubtful. Benton was chased off the lot Thursday, for a fight with Luque. Douglass took his place, leaving no fresh pitcher for the final games. It is thought that either Neht or Barnes will start the opener Friday, and Manager McGraw may stick in one of lils second string men for the second game. Hod Eller, who was listed to play In Thursday's contest, was not sent to the box by Manager Moran, and v. ill probably start Rriday's game. Following Friday's games, the Reds will cross the river into Brooklyn for a series with the Superbas, and the Cubs will come to the Polo grounds to do battle with New York. The Cubs have, been the source of considerable trouble to the Giants lately, and Manager Moran is confident that he will be able to hold his lead tfjrough the next series.

Hot Weather, Baseball, Woods, Can't Lure Bowling Fans From Favorite Sport Richmond bowling fans, despite the lure of baseball, and the Reds, in face of the call of the woods still find time and energy to drop In at local alleys and bowt a few games. "Just to keep in practice" says the fans with sweat glistening on their foreheads. Thia enthusiasm in face of the summer heat, points to a record bowling season this winter, and "Phil" Twigg, manager of Twigg's bowling alleys, says that plans are now under way for the formation of bowling leagues. At least thre leagues will be formed and possibly another, for women. League Standings NATIONAL LEAGUE. Clubs. Won. Lost. Pet.

Star Harlers of Reserves Will Try To Beat Locals In Sunday Afternoon Game What promises to be the stiffest game of the season here will take place, Sunday, August 17, when the Quakers take on the Connersville Reserves, at Exhibition park. According to their manager, Jap Young, they are going to give the Quakers a severe drubbing. In Maxwell, their star second sacker, the Reserves hove one of the hardest hitting ball players in semi-pro circles. Maxwell's ability is well known to the local players as they have played against him on several occasions. McCarthy and Huddleston of the Reserves are two cracking good pitchers. McCarthy defeated the Grays at Connersville this season by a much larger margin than the Quakers were able to beat them, and judging by the respective scores the Reserves appear to be the stronger team. This does not affect the Quakers who say that any team from Fayette county will be easy pickings. .HISTORIC (Continued from Page One) ville and lend their teams to this work instead of going on to LaFayette, their intended destination. As a result Centerville became their home and today their daughter remains to tell many a tale of the passing years of the town. Husbands Taken from Bar The American Hotel, in which Mrs. Lashley and her husband lived, was one of the show spots of the flourishing county seat, and many notables stopped over night on their way to and from the west. The hotel had twenty-two rooms and was one of the best known in the middle west. Ed. Hart was its manager at that time. What is now the old Davidson House was then a tavern, known as "The Mansion. The bar of this tavern was the principal scene of a saloon raid mothered by a group of the earliest Indiana women anti-saloon fighters. Armed with words and hands the ladies of the town paid a visit to the bar one evening and each left accompanied by her husband, who marched right home and stayed there! Henry Clay Tipped Over Not far from the Mansion stood. In the early days, the house of Judge Rariden, and another story Is told of an enforced stay of Henry Clay in the town, when, owing to the decidedly rutty condition of the road, his stage coach upset.

viding that a corduroy road be laid along the Cumberlln-St. Louis highway (the National road). When the National road was cemented not long ago some of the logs were found, still enduring the test of time, travel and weather. In Abram's addition and south of the Morton and other National road houses, were other residences of importance. On the southeast corner of Spruce and Pine streets is the former home of Stephen Crowe, an early settler. This house is now occupied by John Lashley, a nephew of Mrs. Anna Lashley. Next to this house is the home of another of Centerville's oldest residents, Joseph A. Commons, former representative to the Indiana state legislature, and son of David Commons, who came to Salisbury from North Carolina In 1812, when he was twelve years old. Commons Was Politician. His father, like the present Joseph Commons, was a political figure in the community, and was a confidant of Oliver Morton, who used to go to him with questions, and who said upon a number of occasions that he had received great inspiration from him. The Commons home in Centerville is the former home of Benjamin Martin, at one time auditor. Later it was occupied by Sylvester Johnson, who also became state auditor.

Adam Tumble, one of the earlier settlers, built the house which stands on the corner of Spruce and Walnut streets and which is now occupied by George J. Wolf. The residence first occupied by Judge Kibby stands on the corner of Walnut and Spruce streets. Judge I Henry Fox of the Wayne Circuit court I was at one time a resident of this j house.

house to Oliver P. Morton, he built a second house which is picturesquely placed at the east of the Centerville park. Today it is occupied by Thomas Jessup, father of Wilfred Jessup, Richmond attorney, who will be one of the principal speakers at the Old Settlers meeting. Some time after he built the secand house, Jacob Julian and Sylvester Johnson, another nearby settler, went to Indianapolis and built up Irvington, but Julian is buried in the Centerville graveyard. George Julian, father of Grace Julian Clark, served a number of terms in the United States congress, and was another of the famous men of Centerville. Before his death, George Julian spoke before the Old Settlers' picnic in 1897, telling about the old town as he found it when It became bis residence in 1843. Was Center of Culture. - "Centerville was then at its prime," he said. It was notable for Its interest in work of education, its intelligence, its charming social life, and the exceptional morality of its people. "In politics Centerville was intensely Whig," said Mrs. Lashley. "Democrats were called 'Locofocos.' In religious matters the town was somewhat divided. The Methodist church was built and in use before 1849." Isaac Julian, another brother, was also a well knkown citizen. He published the Wayne County Republican at one time and was interested in law. He served as prosecutor and was a member of the state legislature. Pennsy Western Office. Mrs. Emily King Anderson, wife of

Harry Anderson, for many years the postmistress in Centerville, also remembers much that is Interesting of the old town and its history. The postoffice was for a long time located in the rooms now occupied by the Old Trail's Echo. Here also at one lime was the western terminal office of the Pennsylvania railroad when it came to Centerville. "I remember the day when we went down to see the first train come In," said Mrs. Lashley. Stanton J. Peelle, ex-chief Justice, now in Washington, D. C, says he re members hearing railroad officials "sworn in" in the western office of the railroad. The office was very important at that time.

Centerville's interest in education and educational institutions has been Intense since the spirit of the first

teachers first invaded the village. The I desire or the great men who came afterwards, filled with a love of learning and fame, has left an everlasting influence. The site of a girls' school built through the creation of an appropriation bill by the state legislature in 1828, may still be seen and still harbors a house of learning, the joint township and town grade school of Centerville now standing there. Additions were made on this building until 1850, it never being completely finished until then. After a while it was turned into the Whitewater College, and students came from all parts of the state as well as the nearby community, to attend its college. College Work Offered. Regular collegiate work was offered according to Joseph Commons, who was a student in the institution. About nine instructors and professors were employed, and President Barns was the official head. One of the best remembered instructors was Miss Edda, who taught elocution. Just after the war the school was purchased by Centerville, and "Abe" Shortridge, formerly of Milton, and now a citizen of Indianapolis, and endower of Shortridge high school in that city, was made its first superintendent, according to Commons. Draws Artists of U. S. The artistic side of Centerville has never been without its attraction, but now with ever increasing historical in-j terest, it is a rendevous for artists, not only of Indiana, but all parts of the United States. Last summer John Seaford. of Bos ton, a nationally known artist, spent considerable time in Wayne County's ! second county seat sketching some of ! its beauties, wandering up and down its streets finding art everywhere, he j said.

Last week Howard Leigh, one of the younger artists of the community was in the historic village sketching the old Morton house, the Julian houses, the old tavern and other objects of marked interest.

Arthur Deming the old Minstrel favorite, and The Three Astella3 offer the comedy high-lights in the new bill which opened yesterday at The Murray for the last-half. Deming has an amusing routine of stories and songs most of which is new, while his style of delivery is just the same as when we used to see him with his minstrel show. The Three Astellas bump over the stage like an automobile on some parts of the old National road. Their falls occasioned much laughter. Ennor and Webber two young girls sing, play the violin and piano and entertain during their tenancy of the stage. Shirley Mason in "The Rescuing Agel" has a comedy part which caused a rippel of smiles continually during its projection. This show will play the entire last-half. " ROUND UP TROOPS.
