Detroit Batted Phillips for Fourteen
Hits That Were Useless.

Hits That Were Useless.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
DETROIT, Mich. May 2.-To-day the In
~dianapolis team had a bit wider margin in
it's victory over Detroit, but it was the
same inevitable victory. Thomas gave two
bases in the first, Deadly sacrificed, Hoff-
meister hit safely, Dolan fumbled on Motz,
and Twineham threw wild after Thomas
had forced in Hoggie with a balk. The
game was thus as good as given away.
The Tigers had made three hits in their
first inning without a tally, and they made
eleven hits after that to four for the
HOLSTERS. 1t would be hard to deny that
the Indianapolis team had great luck to-
day, but for all that they fairly earned the
game by their readiness to take advantage
of every opportunity. The Detroit hits on
Phillips for the most part came after 1t
was too late to do any good. Hogriever
failed to stop Davis's bound in the second
inning, letting him go to second, and kahoe
threw wild slightly on Davis the next time
inning, but in the latter case the error was
not costly, as Davis would have made his
run in that inning on Nichols t~wo-bagger.
A base on balls for Hoggie, a ~grounde and
his steal. with Hoffmeister's hit, scored one
in the third. MOTIFS pass. Aliens three
Dagger, Kahoe's grounder, on which Allen
was caught at the plate, and Fleming's hit
scored the clinching two runs in the sixth.
Hogriever was at bat but once, getting his
base three times and scoring twice. Wad-
dell took Thomas's place in the sixth. Score:

MADAME
The Famous CoRtraIto Arrives-Her
First Visit to indianapolis.

First Visit to indianapolis.
Nine. Jacoby is a perfect type of a Re
becca, with her fine head. poised on broad
square shoulders. Eer figure, her brunette
complexion, coal-black hair. large eyes and
perfect teeth, a Rebecca that sculptor and
painter might well copy in marble or pig
ments. Her voice suits herself, rich, full
and musical. She is a young woman who
holds the position of contralto in the Temple
Emmanuel in her native home, New York
city. The month of May is her vacation and
during the month she will sing at this fes-
tival and at the one in Cincinnati. Her voice
will be first heard here in the"Olaf Trygvas-
SEM in which she will sing for the first time
anywhere. Nine. Jacoby had never heard
the cantata until last evening and she was
charmed with it and with the manner in
which the chorus sang it. She considers il
a composition of extreme difficulty, even
more so than the Lucifer, both of which are
quite out of the ordinary in this respect.
Nine. Jacoby last evening said that she
knew she was going to like indianapolis for
she thought it such a clean city, more so in
that respect than any other That she had
seen. She has sung all around indianapolis
been in Chicago, Louisville, Cincinnati,
Pittsburg, Columbus, Toledo and Cleveland
but never here. She enjoys wheeling but
rarely rides when she is to sing as the effort
of uphill pushing tires her throat. AS she
has not been in such a fiat city as this 1t is
quite possible that wheeling would not ia
tigue her here. III speaking of where she
had sung, Nine; Jacoby said that Anton
Seidl was one of the best friends she had
ever had and that she sang at the last con-
cert which he ever directed. Nine. Jacoby
is at the Denison and will be heard at the
festival twice, in Lucifer the opening night,
tomorrow, and in .Olaf Trygvassen" Fri
day evening. She will probably. attend the
concert Thursday evening to hear Nine.

Spain.

From the gay Castilian fountains
Came a sound of ianguid mirth;
On the snow-clad Spanish mountains
Lived a race of noble birth.
The muse sang sweet of the castles fair
That were builded oft in the dreamy air.
But a curse fell on the fountains
Whence came the sound of mirth;
And the snow-crowned Spanish mountains
Were loathed by all the earth;
For the men who went from that land of song
Were cruel and base as the years are long.
Wherever their footsteps rested
There was pillage and CHASTITY death;
And the scavenger birds aye nested
Near their trail with its reeking breath.
There was never a sign of tenderness
In their breasts as they conquered the wilder
ness.
on the ears of the Christian nations
In every land and cline
Fell the fame of their depredations;
And as long as there's life and time
There will aye be a hiss for the name of Spain;
Americas hiss means Remember the Maine
IS. ". Gillian

CHEAP GAS FROM GARBAGE.
Gigantic Project Under Consideration
by Charles L. Fair and Other
CAPITALISTS

A gigantic project is under consldera
ton by Charles L. Fair and other capt.
ta}ists with the view of making and fur
nishing cheap gas TO residents of towns
and cities throughout the State, by what
is known as the Harris process. By this
process, 1t Is said Illuminating gas can
be manufactured at an average cost Of
about 3 cents per 1000 feet, from garbage
of almost any character.
During his recent visit to the East Mr..
Fair became interested in the new pro-
cess and studied it carefully. When he
returned he established an experimental
station at the junction OF Bay and Fill
more streets, and for several weeks ex-
perts have been making tests with salts
factory results. They have shown that
Illuminating gas can be produced by this
process at 35-Candle power against 16
furnished by local companies.
1t is expected that there will be no diff
ficulty in arranging with the crematory
company for supply of the necessary
kinds of garbage here, and Mr.. Fair has
been already in consultation with ex-
Mayor Ellert on the subject
Mr.. Harris, the inventor of the new pro-
cess, is expected here on Monday, when
plans for erecting suitable buildings on
the Fair property at North Beach will be
discussed and action taken to perfect the
enterprise.
