in order that they may make the

thus scare the sharks away.

TULSA DISGRACED.
vinita Ball Club Wins, Spite
of Mob Violence.

enacted upon a ball ground oc-
Cured at Tulsa yesterday. Vinita
had sent her team and some of
her best citizens to visit Tulsa and
play a friendly game of ball.
From the time the FIST ball was
pitched until Vinita demonstrated
her final supremacy madness run
riot and vinita's players were as
saulted and insulted. The ball
was blocked, and the umpire,
Murdock of Tulsa, deliberately
tried to steal the game.
The tip was given early in the
day that Tulsa would win by fair
means or foul. Having been en-
gendered, its foulDess could not
be restrained, and from the first
inning disgraceful mob gathered
between the plate and first, and
rushed into the field when the
play was processing, yelling like
mad, using insulting and obscene
language, totally oblivious Of the
fact that ladies were present and
that justice should be accorded
the visiting ball team.
Murdock, the alleged umpire,
was worse than rotten. Disinter-
ested persons were ashamed, and
even some of the fair minded cit,
izens of Tulsa felt the disgrace OF
his outrageous decisions. When
umpiring behind the pitcher ne
never called strike on Tulsa un-
less the ball was actually struck
at. On the bases he was even
worse. Tulsa's runners were al
ways safe. Vinita put out at least
four men, on an average, each in
ming, and still they won. Our
catcher, Hughes, has his back and
legs covered with bruises, which
show the suffering he withstood in
silence from the sling shots loaded
with bullets used by the mob, and
Ridenhour was spiked severely.
Vinita made IS hits, while Tulsa
only made 5, and yet the score
was, Vinita 5, Tulsa Z. This re-
suit speaks louder than words as
to what mob violence and outra-
geous umpiring can do in base ball.
Tho struggling under the in
sulting epithets and shameful re-
ception accorded them, the Vinita
boys bore up in silence, under the
counsel of older friends who ac-
companied them, and when the
game was over, they gathered
their stuff together and with vi
tuperation and abuse from all
sides, a pleasant word from none,
made their way to the train,
only hoping that some day they
may have All opportunity TO call
Tulsa's mob individually to ac-
count for the days work.
No less than twenty men who
we're disinterested and living in
other towns, said that never in all
their lives had they witnessed
I. such disgraceful conduct or seen
such unfair umpiring.
II being unlikely that any bet
te; show would be given them to-
day and fearing that human life
might be jeopardized by another
sucn exhibition. the Vinita club
challenged Glaremore for a game
today. 1t was accepted and they
went to Claremore on the local
and play there this afternoon, re-
turning on this evenings passen-

KIDNEY TROUBLE.
The Most Prevalent, Dangerous and De
 captive Disease.
Thousands Have It and Don't Know It

Pains and aches come from excess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working to pump the thick, kdney-poisoned blood through the veins and arteries.
 Soreness or uncomfortable feeling in the back indicates kidney trouble of no small importance.
 The passing of scanty or profuse quanti- ties of urine is a warning of kidney trouble. If you want to feel well you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys.
 The famous new discovery, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, is the true specific for kid ney bladder and urinary troubles. It has cured thousands of apparently hopeless cases after all other efforts have failed.
 Sold on its merits by all druggists in fifty-cent and one dollar sizes. A sample bottle sent free by mail to any address. Also book telling all about Swamp-Root and its wonderful cures. When writing, ad- dress Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghampton, N r., and mention that you read this generous offer in The Daily Age-Herald.
