IHRAIN Is NEAR HOME
MITCHELLS VICISsITUDES.
kilrain's Second Shows Up in Chi
cagO in Rags.


CHICAGO, July Slate tonight Par
son Davies received word that man
desired earnestly to see him in the bar
room. The sporting man descended
and the bartender pointed out diiipi-
dated-looking person in the corner as
the solicitous person. The man bore
the conventional attire of tramp. His
clothes were i'll tatterS, his straw hat al
most crownleSS, a cOb-pipe in his mouth,
bearing the traces of age, and the ging-
ham umbrella he bore in his hand
badly smashed. "There were proba-
bly, ten of the fifteen men in the
room who knew Charley MITCHELL"
said ParsOn Davies tonight. ''yet no
one recognized the English champion in
the above attire" Yet it was Charley
Mitchell, and the tale of his viciSsitudes
is as interesting as it is ludicrOus.
The first alarm was sounded at Sey-
mour, where the Kilrain party left
the train, took carriages and
drove overland to thWart the attempt at
arrest on the part of Indian sheiriffs.
This party consisted of Jake Kilrain,
Charley Mitchell, Pony Moore and John
started for Shelbyville with four
teen deputy sheritfs in pursuit and
only an hour behind. At Shelby
vile friend notified them of the
impending danger of arrest and warned
them to flee. From this time they were
in the woods twenty hours, wandering
in almost every direction but the right
one and going frantic at the frequent
alarms of the proximity of their pur-
suers. Finally they reached an obscure
place known as Brady's station, and here
long council was held. 1t was decided
that Mitchell should disguise himself,
break away from the rest of the crowd,
go to indianapolis, and from thence to
some hospitable refuge, writing his
comrades how to proceed in his wake.
He selected his disguise, chartered a
cart and horse, with farmer for driver,
and finally, after numberless vicissi-
tudes and mishaps, succeeded in reach
ing indianapolis. From thence Mitchell
proceeded to Chicago by train, arriving
at $50 tonight. He left at late hour
for the East.

DUKE SHUT THEM OUT.
MillerS Make 1t Three Straight
From DAs MOines

Play had proceeded up to the middle
of the seventh inning in the Minneapo-
Olis-Des Moines game yesterday, when
the rain drove the crowd off the
bleachers, and Umpire Clark called
time. At the end of a half hour
1t was still raining quite hard,
and the game was called.
and set back to the last full inning
the sixth-when the score stood three
to nothing in favor of the home team,
giving Sam MOrtOn's children three
straight from the demons in red and
black, and pushing the teams percent
age up to 500 once more. Hart, who
Thursday, pitched fine game
and held the home team down
to three singles and a double.
MoXie Hengle made the first run for
Minneapolis. He sent hot one down
to Macullar, who stopped it, but didn't
get time to pick it up from behind his
foot until the eX-captain was safe on
first sack. NIoXie stole second and third
in a straight-away manner that was de-
cidedly pleasing, and then took a
good lead toward the plate. Cody
threw wild in trying to catch him
and Hengle scored. The next run was
made by Joe Miller in the fourth. Joe
pasted the ball into right field for two
sacks, got third on Fosters sacrifice
and came home OH Hengle's rafting
single to left. Dugdale scored in the
next on pretty hit to left, which took
Turner to second. Dugdale went to
second on Turner's out at third. and
was pushed across the plate by
a base on balls to Miller. Duke,
who made such sorry showing
when last in the box here, retrieved
himself yesterday. In the first inning
the first three men to bat died on short
hits to the infeld. In the next inning
Cornell managed to cut out single
down the right foul line, and Duke gave
Traffiey and Smith four bad balls each,
filling the bases. Then was the time
that Duke got in his fine work.
Capt Macullar saw the bags
full and picked out his home run wagon
tongue, Intending to do great slaughter.
Thrice did he fan the humid atmos-
phe1e, but nowhere could he find the
ball. He sat down. Cody. the double
back-action pitcher, catcher and all
around athlete, selected bat and
walked up to the plate. Duke doubled
himself up in the box until he looked
like an animated pretZel, then he
suddenly Strengthened out and the
ball shot out from somewhere and
Whistled over the plate. "Strike One,"

shouted the umpire. He did it again
and the umpire couldn't be heard on ac-
count of the shouting. A third time the
ball came over the plate like a bullet.
Cody made vicious swipe at it just as
Dugdale threw it back to Duke. Then
there was a howl that shook the grand
stand. Hart was the next victim and
the entire crowd held its breath while he
cut three long Sits in the all, and pulling
his cap over his eyes started back to
his work in the box. Duke struck out
three men again in the third, one in the
fourth, and two in the fifth. In the
fourth a hot liner from Smiths bat
knocked Dukes index finger out OF
joint, and after that he gave two bases
on balls. The second and last hit was
made off him in the sixth. Connell got
first on Reddy's failure to digest his not
grounder. The next man struck out,
and then big Smith hit a rafting two
Dagger to center. Foster threw
to Hanrahan, who was COW
ering second, and then Council
tried to score on the hit, but Reddy
chucked it home in time to head him Oft.
AS usual when Macullar plays there
was good bit of kicking. In the sec
ond inning Duke walked out OF the box
because Clarke sent Smith to first on a
questionable fourth ball. Reddy in
duced him to return, however, and he
struck out the next three men. Macul-
lar kicked because Clarke called
Whitley out when Dug" missed his
third strike and he failed to run.
Macullar said he would play the game
under protest, and raised another howl
when Clarke stopped the game on ac-
count of rain. The score:

INDIANAPOLIS Ind, July l3.-iiOrace
z. Stockbridge, IN. L., director OF tho
government agricultural experiment
station for Indiana, io,ated at rerdue
university, near Lafayette, has been in
vestigating new wheat disease that
has appeared in certain sections of The
state, particularly in Lagran - coanty,
and which is seriously affecting the
wheat crop over considerable areas.
The damage likely to be wrought by it
and the rareness with which it occurs in
this country seem to render a brief de-
scription of the infection of i'm
portance to the. agricultural CON-
munity. The disease is Il fnngoid
growth, known as PUNT" or
'stinking smut" on account of it's
strong and dsagreeable odor. 1t is
rarely found in America, bat is not I'M
common in England. The wheat head,
on ripening, may possess very nearly
normal appearance. but on Smelling, the
grains are found to be filled with
black, greasy powder, the result of the
growth of the fungus. beginning with
the very termination of the seed and
keeping pace with the growth of the
plant. Its action is no more harmful
than that of common smut, but its Odor
lenders it more Objectionable. Where
not very abundant, it may be separated
from the good grain either by fanning
or by washing. 1t is very apt to occur
so abundantly in field, however, as to
render the entire crop well-nigh worth
less. 1t does not spread in the field;
but the germs producing it adhere to
the grain, and are thus Sown with the
seed. Seed wheat may be freed from
the spores by being soaked in solution
thrty-sx nours-four ounces of the sui
plate to one gallon of water.

NATIONAL LEAGUE,


A week ago last night the Eastern
teams of the National league went
home, taking the Western teams with
them. and this week they have been en-
gagged in giving the wild Westerners a
pretty regular series of thrashings, New
York having won six games in as many
days, Philadelphia five, and Boston and
Washington four each. The result is
that New York has crept up to second
place, and is crowding Boston very close.
Cleveland probably reached high-water
mark Saturday, July 6, and is more
likely to land in fourth place than in a
higher one. The youngsters, however,
are full of ginger, and will not be
forced down without lively struggle.
Boston and New York seem destined
to have the fight for the pennant be-
tween themselves the rest of the season,
and the prospects of victory are in New
York's favor. The record follows:
