DEFEATED BY WICHITA BUSINESS
COLLEGE.
Hot Contest Results in a Score of
7 to 6.

The baseball teams Of the Wichita Bus
mess and Paramount colleges crossed bats
yesterday afternoon and the Business
College boys came out victorious by q
score Of to 6. II was slugging match
from the start, each team getting nine
safe hits. The fielding was the best that
has struck this town in a long time and
the men ran bases like professionals.
Both pitchers were hit often only six men
being struck out by Tanning and NARROW
made but two men lay down the stick.
Forney, who pitched the last two innings
for Fairmount, was in poor form. Fan
ming was steady at critical times. The
errors were few and not costly, each side
making five. There were several chances
for double plays but the men seemed
sleepy in watching the base runeIs. Fair
mount went to bat first; two men went
out before reaching first. Miller hit safe
and Ross got a base on balls, hut Miller
went out stealing third. The Business
College went out in one, two, three order
on infield hits. In the second Paramount
was retired without a run and the Bush
ness College worked two men around by
hard hitting ard an error. Paramount
had the bases fun in the third but could
not SET man across the plate and the
Business College boys went cut on infeld
hits. Paramount did not score in the fifth
but their opponents worked in two more
runs in their half by two safe hits and
two-bagger by Shelly. In the fifth Fair
mount got two scores on three safe hits
and an error by the first baseman. The
business College did not score. Paramount
added another in the sixth and one more
in the seventh, tying the score, while the
Business College men We're BANKED. In
the eighth the Business College men sent
three me nacross the plate and Paramount
wnt out in one, two. three order by a fan
and sharp inheld playing. In the ninth
things began TO look rather blue for the
Commercials when Fairmount worked
two men around after two men were out.
but flaming settled down to business and
struck out the last man and the game
was Won.

THREE TRAINS
IMMENSE MACHINERY SHIP
MENT TO WICHITA
Fine Index to the Business Prospects
OF Central Kansas.

The Frisco Railroad company brought
into Wichita yesterday three solid trains
consisting OF sixty car loads of Champion
harvesting machines direct from the fac
tory at Springfield, Ohio. The manufac-
turers of these popular machines, the
Warder. Bushnell & Glessner Co., OF
Springfield and Chicago, have enjoyed
such a remarkable growth of their trade
in the southwest in the past few years
that this immense shipment is made nee
essary as partial preparation for the
early harvest demand. The machinery
was loaded in Big Four cars which were
appropria tely decorated with bunting and
plscards, with signs bearing the adver-
tiscments of the manufacturers. The
trains left st. Louis Sunday and were
given daylight runs in order that people
along the line might see the monster
shipment OF harvesting machines going to
Kansas. 1t was not only a big advertise
ment for the company but one also for
the state and for this city, and is in line
with other big strides made in its advance
toward Greater Wichita and as a jobbing,
shipping and distributing center. It will
perhaps be news of great interest to most
readers Of the Eagle that the above nam
ed company have recently found it nee
essary, in order to care for their growing
trade. TO establish a general agency here,
the Office of which is under the manage
ment of Mr.. o. E. Wright and is located
at the company headquarters at 30S-10
East Douglas avenue. From Mr. Wright
it is learned that all trade in southern
and western Kansas is managed from this
Office and all machines and repairs are
distributed 70 all of central and south
western Kansas and Oklahoma It is also
learned that the large business and grow
ing trade OF this well known company
give employment to a large number of
statesmen as well as return profit to the
host of aggressive dealers who retail the
goods in this territory. Mr.. A. n. Wal
lace, the well known implement dealer. is
the local agent for this city.
