OGDEN GAMES SCHEDULED.
Champion Jeffries May Umpire Short
Line Match.
By Telephone to The HeraId.)

(By Telephone to The Herald)
Ogden, June 24.-The next ball game
of the Ogden nine after the one today
in Lagoon is scheduled for July 4, on
which day they have two games sched
uled with the Short Lines on the home
grounds. One at 10 in the morning and
another at 3 in the afternoon. There is
a prospect that Champion Jeffries will
umpire these games as he will be
through here about that time and in
ducements will be offered him to take
the job A letter from the manager of
the Butte club, received by the Ogden
manager advises against the Ogden
boys going to Butte. There is no money,
he says, for. baseball players in that
section. The last game between Butte
and Anaconda, the letter states. yield
ed no gate receipts worth speaking of.
The Butte boys are willing to come
to Ogden, and consequently have been
booked for games the 18th, 18th and
18th of August. They say they are play
ing much better nine than the one
which was here a few weeks ago, the
team having been thoroughly reorgan-
lied
The game with Rock Springs will be
arranged for in the near future and
Saturday and Sunday, July and9. the
Ogden boys will play with Pocatello
at that city. In case the city council
decide to permit Sunday playing in Og-
den the Denver and Aspen teams will
come to Ogden.

SMITH THREW GAME away
EIS WILDNESS GAVE SHORT
LINES EIGHT RUNS.
Rio Grandes Could Not Hit Kidder,
and Short Lines Won Easily
Score g to 3.

Brig Smith presented the Short Lines
with the game at Fort Douglas yester-
day before things had well started In
the very first inning he gave five bases
on balls. hit one man and allowed four
clean hits. The result was that the
| Short Lines rolled up eight runs with
out exerting themselves in the slightest.
After that Smith settled down to work
and in the following eight innings they
scored but once. But the Rio Grandes
were discouraged by the long lead of
their opponents and the game ended
with score of 8 to 3 in favor of the
Short Lines.
IL was dull and uninteresting game.
The Short Lines had things so much
their own way that ii robbed the game
of any excitement whatever Kidder
was such an enigma to the Rio Grandes
that they did not get near enough the
other fellows at any time to make the
result at all doubtful. Nor was there
any very particularly brilliant playing
Dickinson made two rather sensational
catches in right field and a couple of
neat double plays were executed by the
Short Line infield, but that was all.
After the first inning. when Smiths
wildness gave them eight runs, the
Short Lines scored only once. This was
in the sixth when Barnes was hit by
Smith, Griggs advanced him with a
single and he scored on Gamers FUN
BILE of McFarlane's grounder. Two of
the Rio Grandes' runs were obtained
in the fifth. Lamplugh started the in
ming with a long single into right field.
Gamer came up after him and tapped
out a hot grounder along the third
base line. which was good for two
bags. Miller let Smiths grounder go
through him and Lamplugh and Gamer
both scored. Kidder settled down to

COUNTY TEAM DEFEATS CITY
RED HOT CONTEST ON UNIVER
SITY CAMPUS.
Score Was 10 to 15-Game Was
Warmly Fought From Start TO
Finish By Both Sides.

The Salt Lake county baseball team
of form yesterday afternoon on the uni
versity campus, and trounced the city
aggregation to the tune of Is to 8. The
reversal on the part of the countyites
was accomplished partly through the
aid of ringer" in the shape of
| Pitcher Husser but Dave Dunbar,
George Wood and other standbys aided
very materially. David was particu-
larry full of ginger.
He wore a pair of milk white tennis
shoes and a pair of trousers with a
flowing bosom. There were other items
of apparel, but they cut no special ice.
The springhtly county clerk guarded
the initial pillow in a manner that
showed he had lost none of his cum
ming since "a, or Whereabouts, when he
taught the game to the Indians. Every
time, except one, when Dave went to
bat he laced out d hit. Once, like
Casey, he struck out. By a queer COM
bination of unpropitious circumstances,
however, he never succeeded in making
the circuit solitary time.
Ed Sloan was at the first corner for
the city team. He gave the other side
the best he had in the shop, but that's
no "a carat compliment. May be if the
might have done better and he did do
reasonably well, barring a strike out or
two.
Barnes, who played second for the
city side, made errors enough to stall
a railroad train if they had all been
piled up in front of it. Every time he
had a chance he muffed or jumbled,
and was most discouragingly jeered.
Bob Siddoway played really good ball
OF ch i,rIt
garden acceptably. and the rest of the
boys on both teams did reasonably well,
considering the lack of practice.
The fun started in the very first
round, with the counties at the bat.
Husser. Iverson, Lynch, Jeffs and
Perry hit safely, Lynch's crack being
good for three sacks. These singles.
coupled with some mistakes by the cit
les, netted five runs.
The cities came back with four in
their half. the result of some timely
smuggling, and a covey of errors. In
the second the counties increased their
lead, scoring two runs TO one for their
opponents. The city boys held their
friends, the enemy, down in good shape
then until the seventh. at which sta
ton the score was tied, IL to IL, amid
great excitement
In the eighth and ninth, however, the
counties gathered seven tallies, while
the best the cities could do was an
aggregation of four.
A small crowd saw the contest. Bar
ney Quinn was chief rooter for the
counties, and l.. c. Kelsey occupied a
similar position for the other side.
Barney had d wrestle with a big key
of beer before the game began, but the
key got the worst of it.

given the next day, in which he will
spar four rounds with Jim DAILY, Cor

finish with a fight between his brother,
Jack and himself in which he will du-'
plicate his eleventh round with F'itz-J

blow
.'Fitzsimmons would have BEEN
knocked out in the tenth round" said
Mr.. Thall, but the time keeper goo
ratified, as FitZ was knocked down sol
often and he pulled the bell at two1
minutes and two seconds, which CUT
them out of nearly one minute. That
would have given ample time for JEFF
fries TO have knocked Fitz out. Now"
saws Mr. Thall, ''if F'itz wants another
trial, Jeffries will bet him $1,000 that
he can put him out in four rounds. Y eS
Charlie Mitchell wants to meet Jeffries,
and Brady is on his way to England
now to close the contract. Our NAM
will meet Mitchell July q, Mitchell IS

marked Mr.. Thall He is young, only

his fight with FitZ he went up to shake
hands with the defeated pugilist's wife,

CHAMBERS SHOULD BE OUSTED
Germans Displeased With His Re-
tention In Samoa.

Berlin. June 24.-The officials of the
German foreign office question the cor
rectness of some of the later news from
Samoa They say the abolition OF the
kingship is entirely acceptable to Ger
many. which never espoused the cause
of either candidate.
While admitting Chief Justice Cham
ber's competency, the foreign office
questions the correctness OF his decision
in the premises, and doubts that the
commission has decided to leave him
in office. They say he should be retired
IKE the others. The return of F. y =
Maxse. who was British consul at Apia,
gives great satisfaction, as the Ger
mans are more incensed against the
British than against the American Of
