Lawrence, Kan, Aprn 20.-Kansas IN
iversity won its second game with the
Haskell Indians yesterday by a score Of
IS to 8. AS the score indicates. the game
was loose and slow, and although some
very nice playing was DONE 1t was more
than balanced by poor work on both
sides. K. L. made 10 errors and the IN
dams made b. The rough grounds were
TO blame for some Of the infield fiukes
but not for all of them Neither pitcher
WAS well supported. McCampbell who
played with the Jenkins Music company
team, Of Kansas City last fall, was in
the box for the college boys and did very
creditabie work His most effective bail
seemed TO be a slow out curve. His con-
troll was good and he fielded his position
EVel. Miguel, for the braves. was touch
ed hard at times and issued more free
passes than AIcCampben. He relied
much on an underhand out. which came
slow.

throw accurately, and Weller, Rojers
and Falls were rather slow. Even. the
famous Indian gardeners each made an
error, muffing easy flies. Felix played
a good game behind the bat.
For X. u. Poorman did not do nearly
so well as usual at short. and White at
third made an error. Curry and TrusseI
were both nervous at second, but the
latter did some nice work mailing would
be base stealers. Prey was in good form
at first and the f1elders all did well Bar
nett accepted many chances with only
one misjudged ball, and Tucker made a
beautiful catch in left.

dams and Gravelle and Rojers got nice

Rural Telephones Have Networked

Salina, April 20-A telephone directory
of the independent exchanges and toll
stations in central Kansas has just been
issued, which reminds one Of the fact
that as late as 1895 there was not an in
dependent company in Kansas and what
few exchanges and toll stations there
we're at that time were operated by the
Bell Telephone company and the
prices were so exorbitant that a teIe-
phone was luxury instead of the neces-
sity as it is today
After the expiration Of the Bell
patents companies were organized and
exchanges were built, and today there
are IN Kansas over 200 large exchanges
with from $50 to SOC subscribers each,
beside almost every town and village
east of Great Bend is connected with the
outside world by telephone toll stations
These exchanges and toll stations are
operated by about $50 different COM

AN EXCITING RUNAWAY

On North Market Street Last Even
fnR-John SeybOId Injured, and
Others Had Very Fortunate Es-
capes.
Shortly after eight O'Clock last even
ing as MIR. John Seybold, of S1S Main
street, came driving down Market
above Eighth street, with a single horse
and buggy, the animal without the least
warning started madly down the street.
MIR. Seybold had no control whatever
over the horse and the cause of the
accident is attributed to his manner
Of driving with a loose grasp on the
lines.
AT the residence of Mrs. David Gut
man, Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Mendel had
driven. Mr.. Mendel had only entered
the house a few minutes, having left
Mrs. Mendel seated in the buggy alone
The runaway horse had started not far
from the spot, and as it dashed into
Mr. Mendel's rig, Mr.. Seybod was toss
ed into the air, then striking the paw
ed street violently, where he lay I'M
conscious. He was picked up by several
men and carried into the Office OF Dr.
IF. B. Ridgway, No. 831 Market street,
where he was made as comfortable as
possible until the Doctors arrival In
the meantime Mrs. Ridgway carefully
washed and bathed two deep cuts, one
above the left eye and one on the nose.
His mouth was bleeding profusely, and
his left leg was badly injured, but not
broken. DIR. Ridgway put several
time before he is able to be about, as
he is 60 years of age. After the
wounds were dressed t.se injured man
was sent home in a conveyance.
Mrs. Mendel's escape was no less mi
raculous, as she was thrown between
the front wheel and body of the buggy
Aside from being badly frightened, she
escaped with slightly bruised arm.
Mr.. Clyde Caldwell, who was on his
bicycle. was caught in the mix-np and
was badly bruised, but was able to lead
the broken wheel away. Mr.. Seybold's
horse was only scratched. This was
his third runaway yesterday, and
friends have repeatedly cautioned him
about his carelessness in driving. The
damage to Mr.. Mendels vehicle con-
sisted of a broken shaft and dash. with
