Winfield Beats the Blues by q Score o
l2 IN X.

Whack! bang! whoop-er-ee-a groan-
ana Winfield won the second game by
IL to 8. Nine happy Red men, nine sore.
tired and Disguised Blue men walked off
the field yesterday afternoon at River
de park. The Wichita Blues presented
almost a new team yesterday but the
Winfield Reds wolloped them just the
same, but the tale was not as gruesome
as the previous day. Dixon, for three
innings, did the cannonading for the
Blues with Rowiee at the receiving end.
Copeland, for Winfield, curved, shot,
twisted and spurted the horse hide over
the plate and Mr.. Jones-he did the rest.
Only three hits were made off Copeland
and two Of these were scratches. A
lew costly errors allowed Wichita to
get n a few runs. Wichita has sent to
Kingman for same batting material and
with Charley Strawn in the box this af-
ternoon with his wonderful down shoot,
life may be worth the living and the
silent fans may have an opportunity TO
let loose long pent up yell Of delight
and victory. Donovan. he of the mighty
arm and lightning speed, will do the
twirling for Winfield. The game today
will be called at o'clock. in order TO
let the Winfield boys return home. Yes

need Of money The old cooking range
has collapsed and they must have a new
one. They have chance TO get an eX-

Of cooking 10 feed three dozen little ones.
The lady managers had a meeting yes
terday and concluded that the best way
TO raise the money, as IL would be the
most pleasant. would be a lawn social.
The court hause grounds have been prof

Wednesday evening of this week. There
will be good music by Shaw's band, which

There are some few investigations 70
be made, the commissioners claim, and

VERDICT AGAINST MAINE CENTRAL.
Jonathan Palmer Awarded a Verdict in the
Celebrated Mileage Case.

Portland Oct 27.-The case of Jonathan
2. Palmer of Somerville. VS.. the Maine
Central Railroad. was finished in the su-
oreme judicial court, this forenoon, and
the jury retired shortly before noon. At
80 O'Clock they rendered IA verdict for the
plaintiff and assessed damages at $55O90
In the course of his charge. Judge
Whitehouse said in effect that it is incum-
bent upon a passenger holding Il nom
transferable mileage book to answer a
simple and reasonable question of a con-
ductor as to whether the name of the
passenger corresponds with that affixed
to the contract on the book. The only
question ait issue, he said, was whether
the attitude of the plaintiff was such as
to lead the conductor to a reasonable be-
lief. and whether he did believe when he
oruered the arrest. that the plaintiff was
not the man whose name was in the book.
The jury was out ". hours. The Railroad
Company will appeal.

PURITY AN D VICE.
W. c. 7. U. Delegates Still Discussing Sub
ject, Although Convention Is Over.

Toronto, Ont, Oct. 27.-The great
worlds convention of the w. c. T. u.
was formally closed here, last night,
and most of the delegates have de-
parted. This morning, an all-day
purity conducted by DR.. Mary Wood
Allen of Ann .Arbor, Mich.
A paper on "Legalized Vice" was
read by Mrs. c. T. Cole of Iowa. In it
she deplored the present condition of
affairs in India, saying that govern
ment protection of loathsome vice was
one of the darkest blots that confronts
us.
Rev. Wilbur F. Crafts of Washing
ton, then addressed the assemblage on
"Transfigured FLESH" advocatingw the
strengthening of the body as well as
the soul. He spoke of Lady Henry
Somerset and her great practical mis-
take. a mistake into which many min
listers of the United States had also
fallen. The reason of this mistake, he
maintained, was that the subject had
not been studied.
In the United States the question of
extension of licensing is ever present
and is now assuming alarming i'm
portance and it behoOves every min
lister and well-thinking citizen to apply
himself to study and be ready to ac-
quire knowledge of practical economic
hygenic and legal conditions of society
Miss Rose w. Wood Allen of Ann
