WINFIELD SO; INDEPENDENCE S-5

The Reds played two games with the

the following score:

The game this afternoon was a hard
fought battle for honors, as each had
five games and was after the odd. The
visitors put up a stiff game with
few eros, but theaR Reds took it away
from them in the ninth and tenth by
hard hitting. The feature of the game
was the great homerun drive by Walt
Frantz in the tenth, with two men on
bases. This ended the game amid the
widest excitement ever seen on the
diamond here Many had started home
after the eighth when the score was 4
to 2, giving the game up as lost, but the
Reds tied the score in the ninth andbat
ted it out in the tenth in a way that
astonished even heir supporters.

Topeka, Kan, Aug. Especial 1T
is surprising how seriously Topeka
takes the movement started, agitating
the removal to some more central point
in Kansas. If the proposers of this
scheme imagine that it is a joke they
are mistaken. It has been proposed
time and time again and Topeka al
ways has a case Of Mysteries.
There is probably good ground for
her fear, or Topeka would not fly of
the handle every time the matter is
mentioned. Topeka has meddled alto
gether too much with the affairs Of the
rest of the state and she knows materi-
al revenge is not lacking In every coun-

extend a helping hand to boost the cap

Then the towns like Emporia, Hiawa-

ter, Junction City, Minneapolis and a
number of the county seats of eastern
counties are sore because the bulk OF
patronage for that portion of the state
is always "hogged" by Topeka. OF
course the western counties are in IA
vor Of bringing the capital further
west. And after a general expression
of the visiting statesmen in Topeka is
any index of choice, Salina is q long
way in the lead as the new capital.
While the papers here are criticizing
every other portion of the state, they
have also published with great gusto
what the rest Of the state must con-
tribute to the completion of the present
capital building. This list is as fol-
lows and is calculated to make most OF
the Kansas towns and counties that
have been abused by Topeka boil:

Baron de Coubertin's Patriotic Plan For
Interesting Americans In French Politics.
Titled foreigners are usually more in
terested in American heiresses than they
are in American politics, but Baron
Pierre de Coubertin is an exception to
the rule. He has twice crossed the big
pond for the purpose of studying the So
oial condition and politics OF the United
States, and although he is a great adj
mirer of American educational methods
and Yankee erudition he is tri1e dis
appointed in the prevailing lack of
knowledge of French modern politics
displayed by the young men of frances
sister republic
When the baron first visited the Unit
ed States, in 1889, he was the bearer of
q commission from the French minister
