st.PauI and Kansas City Have Lit
tie Chance Now.


ST. Paul and Kansas City Have Lit
tie Chance Now.
The results of the games yester-
day at Terre Haute, Indianapolis
and Kansas City practically ended
the contest for first place in the West
ern league for the season of 1895.
Nothing but the most phenomenal
playing and luck could now land
either ST. Paul or Kansas City in
first place. Indianapolis is chalking
UP an unbroken series of victories,
while Kansas City and ST. Paul are
winning and losing, thus widening
the gap every day. st. Paul has 26,
Kansas City 25 and Indianapolis %
games yet to play. 1t can be readily
seen that the chances of the Apos-
ties are no better from this out than
those Of indianapolis, and that there
is little likelihood that the gap now
existing will be narrowed to any
appreciate extent What is true of
st. Paul is quite as true of Kansas
City. The two, however, still have
their fight for second place, and it
should be an interesting one, as the
teams are only half a game apart.
Neither can get any lower than third
place. And this calls to mind the
fact that Manager Comiskey has
lived up to his promises to the peo-
pie of st. Paul. He said on return
ing from his first disastrous trip:
81 am going to pull this team to-
gether and land it one, two, three
This he will do without the slightest
difficulty. The contest for fourth
place promises to be very inter-
esting one. Milwaukee and Mime
apolis are now tied for it, but De-
troit isn't so far away that it can
not secure it by a good, strong fin
ish. Terre Haute has shaken off
Grand Rapids and is playing about
the strongest game Of any team in
the league outside of Indianapolis.
Yesterdays game gave the Junior
Hoosiers their seventh straight VIC
tory. Five of the eight teams have
now played exactly 100 games each.
st. Pauls games this week are three
with Terre Haute and four with In
dianapolis. The clubs now stand in
the following relative positions:

Special to the Globe.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. "a
Indianapolis and Minneapolis played
brilliant ball for seven innings to-
day. The Millers then went to pieces,
Fraser going up into the air, and the
leaders won out handily. Fisher
was touched for but six scattered
singles, While the leaders were more
fortunate with Fraser. Until the
sixth inning, however, Watkins men
only registered six safe hits, Can
avian driving out homer in the in
augura1 inning. In the third Ho-
griever scored on a base on balls,
Roat's single and Hulen's tumble.
The Millers got one in the first on
singles by Hulen and Lally, a double
steal and Franks sacrifice. The
most brilliant character of fielding
shut off seemingly safe chances for
additional runs. Not another single
was secured until the sixth In this
inning Lally hit to Newell, who
threw into the bleachers, the runner
scoring and the game tied. Sim
giles by Hogriever, Roat and Cana
van and errors by Strauss and Will
son gave two scores to the leaders
in the seventh. The game was
cinched in the eighth, Mccarthy,
Newell and Fisher connecting for
singles, Hogan for ascratch three
Dagger and Mcfarland for a long
three-base drive.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. M.-Fast
track, good finishes and crowd of
over $500 people characterized the
initial fall meet of the new Louisville
Jockey club. The weather was threat

fair and the betting lively. Wiley
Jones won the honors of the day by
guiding four winners to victory out of
six mounts. There were no especially
sensational finishes. The best race of
the day was the opening event, one
mile, which was won by st. Maxim, the
favorite. Three first choices were first
past the post. Jockey Bob Isom was
set down by Starter Chinn. The boy
was under contract to Chinn and
jumped him at Oakley. He had the
mount on Annie Lyle in the first, and

Gives Great Promise of Being a
Rival of Ives and OF Slosson.
The young billiard player, Harri-
son, is attracting much local atten-
ton, especially among billiard play
ers. His full name is William D.
Harrison. He is twenty-five years
old, and a native of Portland, Ore.
1t was there that he began playing
when a youth Of seventeen. In
1892 he had acquired such a local
reputation that he was sought out
by F. c. Ives, of Chicago, by whom
he was employed for. some months.
In the same year he entered into his
first tournament. It was in the
Windy City. The scratch men were
Gallagher and Maggioli Capon
went in at 240; Arson and Thatcher

SMASHED ALL RECORDS.
Miss Nelson Takes Tumble at
the Close.

the Close.
Hotter than any one had expected in
one respect was the finish in the great
siX-day bicycle race at Athletic park,
the greatest event of the kind partici-
pated in by women. One by one dur
ing the last night the slower riders
dropped out, first Lothrop, then Allen
and Stanley, and finally Baldwin, leav-
ing the track for the last twenty min
utes in full possession of Miss Nelson
and the Minneapolis girl, Miss Chris
TOPPER. The New Yorker still held
her lead of one lap and in spite of
Miss Christopher's phenomenal bursts
of speed, the leader managed to trail
her wheel all the way. Sometimes on
the turn Miss Christopher would gain
nearly wheel length, but in the
stretch, short as it was, Miss Nelson
would close up the gap and away they
would go again.
At 10:45 the final squirt was begun.
Still the conditions were the same, ex-
cept that Miss Christopher set a pace
Hvelier than any that she had before
given. Nelson. however, held her
wheel close up all the time and after
few minutes they slackened again,
as Miss Christopher gave up the idea
of making up that lap. They the sharp
ones predicted that Miss Nelson would
cut lose and come in ahead. She did
and she didn't. She cut loose. but
she didn't get any further ahead, for
the Minneapolis girl was a slayer and
she stood pat. One by one the min
utes passed and the hour of eleven APP
preached. The gong rung for the last
two laps and around at a breakneck
gait But Christopher had her wheel
ahead at the tape and Nelson's lead
on the race was trifle less than a
lap.
Then came the most exciting moment
OF the race. AS they went over the
tape at a terrific pace, and went into
the turn again, Miss Nelson's wheel
went down the incline, and for an in
slant stan brus he'd the rear wheel of Miss
long enough to give the Syracuse
girls wheel an upward impetus that
sent her sailing over the highest part
OF the incline, five or six feet from
son rims, hundred shrill screams, a
scurrying of spectators in her imme-
date vicinity, and then she dropped
into a heap outside the fence Most
the. way, but Martin Duke. the base
ball pitcher, was not swift enough.
and the bicyclist's sylph-lfke form fell
upon him: That, perhaps. saved her
life, for it broke the fail in good
shape. The crowd rushed I'D to the
spot, and crowded around, but the
girl, worse scared than hurt, and less
scared than the lockers on, was car
ried off the field.
She had won the race. and Christie
pher and Baldwin, with her, had brok-
en- all the siX-day records for women
made before. Miss Baldwin, who left
the track twenty minutes ahead of
time, beat her old record miles 8
laps, and 43 minutes. Miss Nelson beat
Miss Baldwin's previous worlds record
for 18 hours nearly an hours min
utes fiat, and Miss Christopher beat
it 81 minutes and 48 seconds. At the
finish Miss Nelson had 293 miles and
laps, 10 miles and laps better than
the previous record, made in st. Paul.
The score by hours was:

The Northern PaciIcss Employees

The base ball game yesterday aft
ernoon between the Duluths and the
Northern Pacifics was a victory for
the latter by a score of

nevertheless interesting, and
kept the attention of the crowd. The
Duluth boys were handicapped in
having five of their regular players
out and their places filled by sub
stitutes. The players that were out
were both of their pitchers, two base
men and fielder. These will all

Gives Few Races.
The Capital City Driving club held
al, matinee at Kittsondale yesterday
afternoon which brought out a fairly
good crowd of sportsmen. The heavy
rainsef the night before made the track
rather heavy, but despite this the
crowd enjoyed three good races, the
first of which was very good. All the
racesb were trotting events, and were
pretty lively contests all the way
through.
In the first race the entries were
Rakush, owned by Charles Brunson,
and Marie Wilkes, owned by W. Lin
deke. The race was three heats, win
ming horse taking best two in three.
Marie Wilkes won the race, taking the
first and third heats, her time being
2:2S and 2:2S11A. The second heat was
won by Rakush in 2:32. The perform
anee of Marie Wilkes on this occasion
was fine, considering everything, and
her two heats were made in good time
The second event was green race and
the horses entered were A. F. Lees
Guy and B. Langdon'S Flora. In
this race Guy took two heats, making
them in 1905 and 300. Flora won the
second heat in 3:02 The third event

two men getting home. Burns also
misjudged Carney's hit, home run
resulting. George also let a man
score by purposely Juggling hit.
His hitting, however, was a feature
OF the game, as he drove three of
the runs in. Twins error, Hart

in in the first inning. In the sec
ond, Gilks was given life by Pep
per's error. Hartman then lined out
q home run over Burns head. We'd
dige hit safe, and Carney repeated
Hartman's act. Burns misjudged the
hit. For the Saints Stratton went
clear to third on Gallagher's wild
throw to first, and scored on Georges
single. Gilks muffed Boyle's fly in
the second. He scored on Peppers
single past first. Goar was touched
the fourth, and the score was tied.
Irwin and Stratton hit safely, the
latter stealing second. Burns drove
them in with a single. Camp then
lined out three-bagger, bringing in
the fourth run on Pickett's hit. Five
base hits and errors by Irwin, Burns
and George let the locals score four
in the fifth. ST. Paul scored in the
sixth on singles by Pepper and
O'Rourke, and in the seventh on
Georges triple and Burns single.
